10So they gathered themselves together at Jerusalem in the third month, in the fifteenth year of the reign of Asa.
11They sacrificed to Yahweh in that day, of the spoil which they had brought, seven hundred oxen and seven thousand sheep.
12They entered into the covenant to seek Yahweh, the God of their fathers, with all their heart and with all their soul;
13and that whoever would not seek Yahweh, the God of Israel, should be put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman.
14They swore to Yahweh with a loud voice, and with shouting, and with trumpets, and with cornets.
15All Judah rejoiced at the oath; for they had sworn with all their heart, and sought him with their whole desire; and he was found of them: and Yahweh gave them rest round about.
16Also Maacah, the mother of Asa the king, he removed from being queen, because she had made an abominable image for an Asherah; and Asa cut down her image, and made dust of it, and burnt it at the brook Kidron.
