“ Let us build up these towns,” he said to Judah,“ and put walls around them, with towers, gates and bars. The land is still ours, because we have sought the Lord our God; we sought him and he has given us rest on every side.” So they built and prospered.

“ Let’s build up our towns,” Asa said to the people of Judah.“ Let’s put walls around them. Let’s provide them with towers. Let’s make them secure with gates that have heavy metal bars.

他又在猶大建造了幾座堡障城；因為地方太平，這些年之中都沒有戰事，是因為永恆主使他得享平靜。

因為主的眼看顧義人，主的耳聽他們的祈求；但對行惡的人、主卻要變臉。』

吩咐猶大人要尋求永恆主他們列祖的上帝，遵行他的律法誡命。

他又建造了上伯和崙跟下伯和崙、作為堡障城，都有牆，有門、有閂；

一切勞苦背重擔的人哪，來找我吧，我便給你們安歇。我心裏柔和謙卑，你們要負我的軛來跟我學，你們心裏就可得安歇。

當時猶太、加利利、撒瑪利亞、全地的教會都得平安，得建立，在敬畏主蒙聖靈的鼓勵中前進，人數日見增加。

『你呢、我兒所羅門哪，你要認識永恆主你父的上帝，全心樂意地事奉他，因為永恆主究察萬人的心，他明白一切思想的計畫。你若尋求他，他就給你尋見；你若離棄他，他就永遠屏絕你。

要以他的聖名而誇耀；願尋求永恆主的人心中喜樂。你們要尋找永恆主和他的能力；不斷地尋求瞻仰他的聖容。

你們總要趁着還有叫做「今日」的時候、天天彼此鼓勵，免得你們中間有人因了罪惡之誘惑而變剛愎。（因為我們如果持守起初的確信，堅定不移到末了，我們就成了與分於基督的人了）——到以下這句話還在說得響的時候：『今日你們如果聽見他的聲音，就不可硬着心，像惹他發怒一樣。』

還是白日，我們必須作那差我者的工；黑夜一到，就沒有人能作工了。

你們要呼求我，要來禱告我，我就聽你們。你們要尋求我、而尋見；你們若全心地尋找我，我就給你們找着，永恆主發神諭說；我必恢復你們的故業，將你們從各國和我所放逐你們到的各地方招集了來，將你們帶回我使你們開始流亡時所離開的地方：這是永恆主發神諭說的。

耶穌就對他們說：『光在你們中間、還有些時。應當趁着有光時來走路，免得黑暗趕上了你們。那在黑暗中走路的、不知道往哪裏去。應當趁着有光時來信光，使你們成為有光之人。』耶穌說了這些話，就離開他們，自己隱藏着。
