1 # In the six <08337> and thirtieth <07970> year <08141> of the reign <04438> of Asa <0609> Baasha <01201> king <04428> of Israel <03478> came up <05927> (8804) against Judah <03063>, and built <01129> (8799) Ramah <07414>, to the intent that <01115> he might let <05414> (8800) none go out <03318> (8802) or come in <0935> (8802) to Asa <0609> king <04428> of Judah <03063>.
2 Then Asa <0609> brought out <03318> (8686) silver <03701> and gold <02091> out of the treasures <0214> of the house <01004> of the LORD <03068> and of the king's <04428> house <01004>, and sent <07971> (8799) to Benhadad <01130> king <04428> of Syria <0758>, that dwelt <03427> (8802) at Damascus <01834>, saying <0559> (8800) ,
3 There is a league <01285> between me and thee, as there was between my father <01> and thy father <01>: behold, I have sent <07971> (8804) thee silver <03701> and gold <02091>; go <03212> (8798), break <06565> (8685) thy league <01285> with Baasha <01201> king <04428> of Israel <03478>, that he may depart <05927> (8799) from me.
4 And Benhadad <01130> hearkened <08085> (8799) unto king <04428> Asa <0609>, and sent <07971> (8799) the captains <08269> of his armies <02428> against the cities <05892> of Israel <03478>; and they smote <05221> (8686) Ijon <05859>, and Dan <01835>, and Abelmaim <066>, and all the store <04543> cities <05892> of Naphtali <05321>.
5 And it came to pass, when Baasha <01201> heard <08085> (8800) it, that he left off <02308> (8799) building <01129> (8800) of Ramah <07414>, and let his work <04399> cease <07673> (8686).
6 Then Asa <0609> the king <04428> took <03947> (8804) all Judah <03063>; and they carried away <05375> (8799) the stones <068> of Ramah <07414>, and the timber <06086> thereof, wherewith Baasha <01201> was building <01129> (8804); and he built <01129> (8799) therewith Geba <01387> and Mizpah <04709>.
7 # And at that time <06256> Hanani <02607> the seer <07200> (8802) came <0935> (8804) to Asa <0609> king <04428> of Judah <03063>, and said <0559> (8799) unto him, Because thou hast relied <08172> (8736) on the king <04428> of Syria <0758>, and not relied <08172> (8738) on the LORD <03068> thy God <0430>, therefore is the host <02428> of the king <04428> of Syria <0758> escaped <04422> (8738) out of thine hand <03027>.
8 Were not the Ethiopians <03569> and the Lubims <03864> a huge <07230> host <02428>, with very <03966> many <07235> (8687) chariots <07393> and horsemen <06571>? yet, because thou didst rely <08172> (8736) on the LORD <03068> , he delivered <05414> (8804) them into thine hand <03027>.
9 For the eyes <05869> of the LORD <03068> run to and fro <07751> (8789) throughout the whole earth <0776>, to shew himself strong <02388> (8692) in the behalf of them whose heart <03824> is perfect <08003> toward him. Herein thou hast done foolishly <05528> (8738): therefore from henceforth <06258> thou shalt have <03426> wars <04421>.
10 Then Asa <0609> was wroth <03707> (8799) with the seer <07200> (8802), and put <05414> (8799) him in a prison <04115> house <01004>; for he was in a rage <02197> with him because of this thing. And Asa <0609> oppressed <07533> (8762) some of the people <05971> the same time <06256>.
11 And, behold, the acts <01697> of Asa <0609>, first <07223> and last <0314>, lo, they are written <03789> (8803) in the book <05612> of the kings <04428> of Judah <03063> and Israel <03478>.
12 And Asa <0609> in the thirty <07970> and ninth <08672> year <08141> of his reign <04438> was diseased <02456> (8799) in his feet <07272>, until his disease <02483> was exceeding <04605> great: yet in his disease <02483> he sought <01875> (8804) not to the LORD <03068>, but to the physicians <07495> (8802).
13 And Asa <0609> slept <07901> (8799) with his fathers <01>, and died <04191> (8799) in the one <0259> and fortieth <0705> year <08141> of his reign <04427> (8800).
14 And they buried <06912> (8799) him in his own sepulchres <06913>, which he had made <03738> (8804) for himself in the city <05892> of David <01732>, and laid <07901> (8686) him in the bed <04904> which was filled <04390> (8765) with sweet odours <01314> and divers kinds <02177> of spices prepared <07543> (8794) by the apothecaries <04842>' art <04639>: and they made <08313> (8799) a very <03966> great <01419> burning <08316> for him.
