2 Asa yakoze ibyo Yehova Imana ye abona ko ari byiza kandi bikwiriye. 3 Yashenye ibicaniro by’imana+ zo mu bindi bihugu, akuraho n’ahantu hirengeye ho gusengera, amenagura inkingi z’amabuye* zisengwa,+ atema n’inkingi z’ibiti zisengwa.+ 4 Nanone yategetse Abayuda gushaka Yehova Imana ya ba sekuruza no gukurikiza amategeko n’amabwiriza ye. 5 Yakuyeho ahantu hirengeye ho gusengera n’ibintu batwikiragaho imibavu+ mu mijyi yose y’u Buyuda kandi mu gihe cy’ubutegetsi bwe, ubwami bwe bwakomeje kugira amahoro.

11 Asa atakira Yehova Imana+ ye ati: “Yehova, ushobora gufasha abantu nubwo baba ari benshi cyangwa nta mbaraga bafite.+ Yehova Mana yacu, dutabare kuko ari wowe twiringiye,*+ kandi twateye izi ngabo nyinshi mu izina ryawe.+ Yehova, ni wowe Mana yacu. Ntiwemere ko umuntu usanzwe agutsinda.”+

17 Ariko ahantu hirengeye ho gusengera muri Isirayeli+ ntihavuyeho.+ Icyakora Asa yakomeje gukorera Imana n’umutima we wose, igihe cyose yari akiriho.*+
