1 Kings 15:1-24

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>_.
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>_.
{Maachah...: also called, Michaiah the daughter of Uriel} {Abishalom: also called, Absalom}
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>_.
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>_:
{lamp: or, candle}
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>_.
And there was war
<04421>
between Rehoboam
<07346>
and Jeroboam
<03379>
all the days
<03117>
of his life
<02416>_.
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>_.
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.
And in the twentieth
<06242>
year
<08141>
of Jeroboam
<03379>
king
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>
reigned
<04427> (8804)
Asa
<0609>
over Judah
<03063>_.
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>_.
{mother's: that is, grandmother's}
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>_.
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)_.
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>_.
{destroyed: Heb. cut off}
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>_.
And he brought
<0935> (8686)
in the things
<06944> (0)
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>_.
{things: Heb. holy}
And there was war
<04421>
between Asa
<0609>
and Baasha
<01201>
king
<04428>
of Israel
<03478>
all their days
<03117>_.
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>_.
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)_,
[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. {depart: Heb. go up}
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>_.
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>_.
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>_.
{exempted: Heb. free}
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>_.
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. {Jehoshaphat: Gr. Josaphat}
