Asa Takes Away Detestable Idols

⁸ Now when Asa heard these words and the ^[a]prophecy which Azariah the son of Oded the prophet spoke, he strengthened himself and took away the detestable idols from all the land of Judah and Benjamin and from ^(C)the cities which he had captured in the hill country of Ephraim. ^(D)He then renewed the altar of Yahweh which was in front of the porch of Yahweh. ⁹ And he gathered all Judah and Benjamin and those from Ephraim, Manasseh and Simeon ^(E)who sojourned with them, for many defected to him from Israel when they saw that Yahweh his God was with him.
