2 Chronicles 15:14New Century VersionThen Asa and the people made a promise before the Lord, shouting with a loud voice and blowing trumpets and sheep’s horns. See the chapter |
They joined their fellow Israelites and their leading men in taking an oath, which was tied to a curse in case they broke the oath. They promised to follow the Teachings of God, which they had been given through Moses the servant of God, and to obey all the commands, rules, and laws of the Lord our God.
Also I shook out the folds of my robe and said, “In this way may God shake out everyone who does not keep his promise. May God shake him out of his house and out of the things that are his. Let that person be shaken out and emptied!” Then the whole group said, “Amen,” and they praised the Lord. So the people did what they had promised.
