2 Chronicles 15:9-16

New International Version

⁹ Then he assembled all Judah and Benjamin and the people from Ephraim, Manasseh and Simeon who had settled among them, for large numbers^(A) had come over to him from Israel when they saw that the Lord his God was with him.

¹⁰ They assembled at Jerusalem in the third month^(B) of the fifteenth year of Asa’s reign. ¹¹ At that time they sacrificed to the Lord seven hundred head of cattle and seven thousand sheep and goats from the plunder^(C) they had brought back. ¹² They entered into a covenant^(D) to seek the Lord,^(E) the God of their ancestors, with all their heart and soul. ¹³ All who would not seek the Lord, the God of Israel, were to be put to death,^(F) whether small or great, man or woman. ¹⁴ They took an oath to the Lord with loud acclamation, with shouting and with trumpets and horns. ¹⁵ All Judah rejoiced about the oath because they had sworn it wholeheartedly. They sought God^(G) eagerly, and he was found by them. So the Lord gave them rest^(H) on every side.

¹⁶ King Asa also deposed his grandmother Maakah^(I) from her position as queen mother,^(J) because she had made a repulsive image for the worship of Asherah.^(K) Asa cut it down, broke it up and burned it in the Kidron Valley.^(L)
