1 Kings 15:16-22

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}
