1 # Now in the eighteenth <08083> <06240> year <08141> of king <04428> Jeroboam <03379> the son <01121> of Nebat <05028> reigned <04427> (8804) Abijam <038> over Judah <03063>.
2 Three <07969> years <08141> reigned <04427> (8804) he in Jerusalem <03389>. And his mother's <0517> name <08034> was Maachah <04601>, the daughter <01323> of Abishalom <053>.
3 And he walked <03212> (8799) in all the sins <02403> of his father <01>, which he had done <06213> (8804) before <06440> him: and his heart <03824> was not perfect <08003> with the LORD <03068> his God <0430>, as the heart <03824> of David <01732> his father <01>.
4 Nevertheless for David's <01732> sake did the LORD <03068> his God <0430> give <05414> (8804) him a lamp <05216> in Jerusalem <03389>, to set up <06965> (8687) his son <01121> after <0310> him, and to establish <05975> (8687) Jerusalem <03389>:
5 Because David <01732> did <06213> (8804) that which was right <03477> in the eyes <05869> of the LORD <03068>, and turned not aside <05493> (8804) from any thing that he commanded <06680> (8765) him all the days <03117> of his life <02416>, save only in the matter <01697> of Uriah <0223> the Hittite <02850>.
6 And there was war <04421> between Rehoboam <07346> and Jeroboam <03379> all the days <03117> of his life <02416>.
7 Now the rest <03499> of the acts <01697> of Abijam <038>, and all that he did <06213> (8804), are they not written <03789> (8803) in the book <05612> of the chronicles <01697> <03117> of the kings <04428> of Judah <03063> ? And there was war <04421> between Abijam <038> and Jeroboam <03379>.
8 And Abijam <038> slept <07901> (8799) with his fathers <01>; and they buried <06912> (8799) him in the city <05892> of David <01732>: and Asa <0609> his son <01121> reigned <04427> (8799) in his stead.
9 # And in the twentieth <06242> year <08141> of Jeroboam <03379> king <04428> of Israel <03478> reigned <04427> (8804) Asa <0609> over Judah <03063>.
10 And forty <0705> and one <0259> years <08141> reigned <04427> (8804) he in Jerusalem <03389>. And his mother's <0517> name <08034> was Maachah <04601>, the daughter <01323> of Abishalom <053>.
11 And Asa <0609> did <06213> (8799) that which was right <03477> in the eyes <05869> of the LORD <03068>, as did David <01732> his father <01>.
12 And he took away <05674> (8686) the sodomites <06945> out of the land <0776>, and removed <05493> (8686) all the idols <01544> that his fathers <01> had made <06213> (8804).
13 And also Maachah <04601> his mother <0517>, even her he removed <05493> (8686) from being queen <01377> , because she had made <06213> (8804) an idol <04656> in a grove <0842>; and Asa <0609> destroyed <03772> (8799) her idol <04656>, and burnt <08313> (8799) it by the brook <05158> Kidron <06939>.
14 But the high places <01116> were not removed <05493> (8804): nevertheless Asa's <0609> heart <03824> was perfect <08003> with the LORD <03068> all his days <03117>.
15 And he brought <0935> (8686) in the things <06944> <00> which his father <01> had dedicated <06944> , and the things which himself had dedicated <06944>, into the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>, silver <03701>, and gold <02091>, and vessels <03627>.
16 And there was war <04421> between Asa <0609> and Baasha <01201> king <04428> of Israel <03478> all their days <03117>.
17 And Baasha <01201> king <04428> of Israel <03478> went up <05927> (8799) against Judah <03063>, and built <01129> (8799) Ramah <07414>, that he might not suffer <05414> (8800) any to go out <03318> (8802) or come in <0935> (8802) to Asa <0609> king <04428> of Judah <03063>.
18 Then Asa <0609> took <03947> (8799) all the silver <03701> and the gold <02091> that were left <03498> (8737) in the treasures <0214> of the house <01004> of the LORD <03068>, and the treasures <0214> of the king's <04428> house <01004>, and delivered <05414> (8799) them into the hand <03027> of his servants <05650>: and king <04428> Asa <0609> sent <07971> (8799) them to Benhadad <01130>, the son <01121> of Tabrimon <02886>, the son <01121> of Hezion <02383>, king <04428> of Syria <0758>, that dwelt <03427> (8802) at Damascus <01834>, saying <0559> (8800) ,
19 There is a league <01285> between me and thee, and between my father <01> and thy father <01>: behold, I have sent <07971> (8804) unto thee a present <07810> of silver <03701> and gold <02091>; come <03212> (8798) and break <06565> (8685) thy league <01285> with Baasha <01201> king <04428> of Israel <03478>, that he may depart <05927> (8799) from me.
20 So Benhadad <01130> hearkened <08085> (8799) unto king <04428> Asa <0609>, and sent <07971> (8799) the captains <08269> of the hosts <02428> which he had against the cities <05892> of Israel <03478>, and smote <05221> (8686) Ijon <05859>, and Dan <01835>, and Abelbethmaachah <062>, and all Cinneroth <03672>, with all the land <0776> of Naphtali <05321>.
21 And it came to pass, when Baasha <01201> heard <08085> (8800) thereof, that he left off <02308> (8799) building <01129> (8800) of Ramah <07414>, and dwelt <03427> (8799) in Tirzah <08656>.
22 Then king <04428> Asa <0609> made a proclamation <08085> (8689) throughout all Judah <03063>; none was exempted <05355>: and they took <05375> (8799) away the stones <068> of Ramah <07414>, and the timber <06086> thereof, wherewith Baasha <01201> had builded <01129> (8804); and king <04428> Asa <0609> built <01129> (8799) with them Geba <01387> of Benjamin <01144>, and Mizpah <04709>.
23 The rest <03499> of all the acts <01697> of Asa <0609>, and all his might <01369>, and all that he did <06213> (8804), and the cities <05892> which he built <01129> (8804), are they not written <03789> (8803) in the book <05612> of the chronicles <01697> <03117> of the kings <04428> of Judah <03063>? Nevertheless in the time <06256> of his old age <02209> he was diseased <02470> (8804) in his feet <07272>.
24 And Asa <0609> slept <07901> (8799) with his fathers <01>, and was buried <06912> (8735) with his fathers <01> in the city <05892> of David <01732> his father <01>: and Jehoshaphat <03092> his son <01121> reigned <04427> (8799) in his stead.
25 # And Nadab <05070> the son <01121> of Jeroboam <03379> began to reign <04427> (8804) over Israel <03478> in the second <08147> year <08141> of Asa <0609> king <04428> of Judah <03063>, and reigned <04427> (8799) over Israel <03478> two <08147> years <08141>.
26 And he did <06213> (8799) evil <07451> in the sight <05869> of the LORD <03068>, and walked <03212> (8799) in the way <01870> of his father <01>, and in his sin <02403> wherewith he made Israel <03478> to sin <02398> (8689).
27 And Baasha <01201> the son <01121> of Ahijah <0281>, of the house <01004> of Issachar <03485>, conspired <07194> (8799) against him; and Baasha <01201> smote <05221> (8686) him at Gibbethon <01405>, which belonged to the Philistines <06430>; for Nadab <05070> and all Israel <03478> laid siege <06696> (8802) to Gibbethon <01405>.
28 Even in the third <07969> year <08141> of Asa <0609> king <04428> of Judah <03063> did Baasha <01201> slay <04191> (8686) him, and reigned <04427> (8799) in his stead.
29 And it came to pass, when he reigned <04427> (8800), that he smote <05221> (8689) all the house <01004> of Jeroboam <03379>; he left <07604> (8689) not to Jeroboam <03379> any that breathed <05397>, until he had destroyed <08045> (8689) him, according unto the saying <01697> of the LORD <03068>, which he spake <01696> (8765) by <03027> his servant <05650> Ahijah <0281> the Shilonite <07888>:
30 Because of the sins <02403> of Jeroboam <03379> which he sinned <02398> (8804), and which he made Israel <03478> sin <02398> (8689), by his provocation <03708> wherewith he provoked the LORD <03068> God <0430> of Israel <03478> to anger <03707> (8689).
31 Now the rest <03499> of the acts <01697> of Nadab <05070>, and all that he did <06213> (8804), are they not written <03789> (8803) in the book <05612> of the chronicles <01697> <03117> of the kings <04428> of Israel <03478> ?
32 And there was war <04421> between Asa <0609> and Baasha <01201> king <04428> of Israel <03478> all their days <03117>.
33 In the third <07969> year <08141> of Asa <0609> king <04428> of Judah <03063> began Baasha <01201> the son <01121> of Ahijah <0281> to reign <04427> (8804) over all Israel <03478> in Tirzah <08656>, twenty <06242> and four <0702> years <08141>.
34 And he did <06213> (8799) evil <07451> in the sight <05869> of the LORD <03068>, and walked <03212> (8799) in the way <01870> of Jeroboam <03379>, and in his sin <02403> wherewith he made Israel <03478> to sin <02398> (8689).
