Tsy momba anareo va Jehovah Andriamanitrareo ka efa nampiadana anareo amin'ny manodidina? Fa efa natolony teo an-tanako ny mponina amin'ny tany; ary ny tany efa resy teo anoloan'i Jehovah sy teo anoloan'ny olony.Koa ankehitriny ampitadiavo an'i Jehovah Andriamanitrareo ny fonareo sy ny fanahinareo, ka mitsangàna, ary manaova ny fitoerana masina ho an'i Jehovah Andriamanitra, hampidirana ny fiaran'ny faneken'i Jehovah sy ny fanaka masin'Andriamanitra ho ao amin'ny trano izay hatao ho an'ny anaran'i Jehovah.

Historical Background
1 Chronicles was written by an unknown author after the Babylonian exile, possibly by a priest or Levite. It was written for the returning exiles to remind them of their history and the importance of their religious practices.
