4 Seek Hashem, and His oz (strength);

seek His face tamid.

11 Seek Hashem and His oz,

seek His face tamid.

6 Seek ye Hashem while He may be found,

call ye upon Him while He is karov (near);

4 One thing have I asked of Hashem,

that will I seek after:

that I may dwell in the Bais Hashem

all the days of my life,

to behold the gracefulness of Hashem,

and to inquire in His Heikhal.

10 Behold mogineinu (our shield), O Elohim,

and look upon the face of Thine Moshiach.

11 Thou wilt show me the Orach Chayyim (the path of life);

in Thy presence is fulness of joy,

at Thy right hand there are pleasures netzach (for evermore).

17 The face of Hashem is against them that do rah,

to cut off the zekher (remembrance) of them from ha’aretz.

18 The tzaddikim cry, and Hashem heareth,

and delivereth them out of all their tzoros.

5 Let your chassidus (piety) and sobriety be known to kol Bnei Adam; Moshiach Adoneinu is near.

13 But now in Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Yehoshua, you, who formerly where in the outermost courts, have been brought near by the kapporah of the dahm of Moshiach.

6 Surely tov and chesed shall follow me

kol y’mei chaiyyai (all the days of my life):

and I will dwell in the Bais Hashem

l’orech yamim (for length of days, whole life long, forever).

18 I will not leave you yetomim (orphans). I am coming to you.*

57 Hashem Eloheinu be immanu (with us), as He was with Avoteinu; let Him not leave us, nor forsake us;

31 Nevertheless for Thy great merciesʼ sake Thou didst not utterly consume them, nor forsake them; for Thou art El Channun v’Rachum.

16 Now may Elohei HaShalom Himself grant you shalom in every way. Hashem be with you all.

11 For the rest, Achim b’Moshiach, rejoice with simcha.* Come to order and chazzak (be strong)! Have achdus (unity) in your machshavot (thoughts). Live in shalom. And the G-d of ahavah and shalom will be with you.*

13 By this we have da’as that we have our ma’on in Him and He in us, because of the Ruach Hakodesh of Him He has given us.

18 No one has ever seen Hashem.* It is Elohim the Ben Yachid,*, the Chochmah Ben Elohim at his side, see very importantly Prov 8:30; 30:4 it is he, the one being in the kheyk (bosom) of HaAv, this one is Hashemʼs definitive midrash (exegesis).

28 And he was there with Hashem arba’im yom and arba’im lailah; he did neither eat lechem, nor drink mayim. And he wrote upon the Luchot the Divrei HaBrit (Words of the Covenant), the Aseres Hadevarim (Ten Commandments).

9 And give refuah (healing) to the cholim (sick people) and say to them, The Malchut Hashem has come near you.

1 And the Ruach Elohim came upon Azaryahu ben Oded; 2 And he went out to meet Asa, and said unto him, Hear ye me, Asa, and kol Yehudah and Binyamin. Hashem is with you, while ye be with Him; if ye seek Him, He will be found of you; if ye forsake Him, He will forsake you. 3 Now for yamim rabbim Yisroel hath been without the Elohei Emes, and without a Kohen Moreh, and without Torah. 4 But when they in their tzoros did turn unto Hashem Elohei Yisroel, and sought Him, He was found by them. 5 And in those times there was no shalom to him that went out, nor to him that came in, but mehumot rabbot (great turmoil) was upon all the inhabitants of the lands. 6 And nation was destroyed of nation, and city of city, for Elohim did trouble them with every tzuris. 7 Be ye strong therefore, and let not your hands be weak, for there is sachar (reward) for your pe’ulah (work).

8 And when Asa heard these words, and the nevu’ah of Oded HaNavi, he took courage, and put away the shikkutzim (abominable idols) from kol Eretz Yehudah and Binyamin, and from the cities which he had captured from Mt Ephrayim, and renewed the Mizbe’ach Hashem, that was in front of the Ulam Hashem. 9 And he gathered all Yehudah and Binyamin, and the gerim with them from Ephrayim and Menasheh, and from Shim’on, for they fell to him from Yisroel in abundance, when they saw that Hashem Elohav was with him. 10 So they gathered themselves together at Yerushalayim in the chodesh hashelishi, in the fifteenth year of the reign of Asa. 11 And they offered unto Hashem on that day, of the plunder which they had brought back, 700 bakar and 7,000 tzon. 12 And they entered into the Brit to seek Hashem Elohei Avoteihem with all their lev and with all their nefesh;

13 That whosoever would not seek Hashem Elohei Yisroel should be put to death, whether katan or gadol, whether ish or isha. 14 And they swore unto Hashem with a kol gadol, and with teruah, and with trumpets, and with shoferot. 15 And all Yehudah rejoiced at the shevu’ah, for they had sworn with all their lev, and sought Him with their whole ratzon; and He was found by them; and Hashem gave them rest all around.

16 And also concerning Ma’achah em Asa HaMelech, he deposed her from being gevirah, because she had made to Asherah a mifletzet, and Asa cut down her mifletzet, and ground it up, and burned it at the Wadi Kidron. 17 But the high places were not removed from Yisroel; nevertheless the levav Asa was shalem all his days.

18 And he brought into the Beis HaElohim the things that Aviv had dedicated as kodesh, and that he himself had dedicated as kodesh, kesef, and zahav, and kelim.

19 And there was no more milchamah unto the five and thirtieth year of the reign of Asa.
