2 H609 Then Asa H3318 brought out [H8686] H3701 silver H2091 and gold H214 out of the treasures H1004 of the house H3068 of the LORD H4428 and of the king's H1004 house H7971 , and sent [H8799] H1130 to Benhadad H4428 king H758 of Syria H3427 , that dwelt [H8802] H1834 at Damascus H559 , saying [H8800] ,

3 H1285 There is a league H1 between me and thee, as there was between my father H1 and thy father H7971 : behold, I have sent [H8804] H3701 thee silver H2091 and gold H3212 ; go [H8798] H6565 , break [H8685] H1285 thy league H1201 with Baasha H4428 king H3478 of Israel H5927 , that he may depart [H8799] from me.

4 H1130 And Benhadad H8085 hearkened [H8799] H4428 unto king H609 Asa H7971 , and sent [H8799] H8269 the captains H2428 of his armies H5892 against the cities H3478 of Israel H5221 ; and they smote [H8686] H5859 Ijon H1835 , and Dan H66 , and Abelmaim H4543 , and all the store H5892 cities H5321 of Naphtali.

5 H1201 And it came to pass, when Baasha H8085 heard [H8800] H2308 it, that he left off [H8799] H1129 building [H8800] H7414 of Ramah H4399 , and let his work H7673 cease [H8686] .

6 H609 Then Asa H4428 the king H3947 took [H8804] H3063 all Judah H5375 ; and they carried away [H8799] H68 the stones H7414 of Ramah H6086 , and the timber H1201 thereof, wherewith Baasha H1129 was building [H8804] H1129 ; and he built [H8799] H1387 therewith Geba H4709 and Mizpah.

7 H6256 And at that time H2607 Hanani H7200 the seer [H8802] H935 came [H8804] H609 to Asa H4428 king H3063 of Judah H559 , and said [H8799] H8172 unto him, Because thou hast relied [H8736] H4428 on the king H758 of Syria H8172 , and not relied [H8738] H3068 on the LORD H430 thy God H2428 , therefore is the host H4428 of the king H758 of Syria H4422 escaped [H8738] H3027 out of thine hand.

8 H3569 Were not the Ethiopians H3864 and the Lubims H7230 a huge H2428 host H3966 , with very H7235 many [H8687] H7393 chariots H6571 and horsemen H8172 ? yet, because thou didst rely [H8736] H3068 on the LORD H5414 , he delivered [H8804] H3027 them into thine hand.

9 H5869 For the eyes H3068 of the LORD H7751 run to and fro [H8789] H776 throughout the whole earth H2388 , to shew himself strong [H8692] H3824 in the behalf of them whose heart H8003 is perfect H5528 toward him. Herein thou hast done foolishly [H8738] H6258 : therefore from henceforth H3426 thou shalt have H4421 wars.

10 H609 Then Asa H3707 was wroth [H8799] H7200 with the seer [H8802] H5414 , and put [H8799] H4115 him in a prison H1004 house H2197 ; for he was in a rage H609 with him because of this thing . And Asa H7533 oppressed [H8762] H5971 some of the people H6256 the same time.

11 H1697 And, behold, the acts H609 of Asa H7223 , first H314 and last H3789 , lo, they are written [H8803] H5612 in the book H4428 of the kings H3063 of Judah H3478 and Israel.

13 H609 And Asa H7901 slept [H8799] H1 with his fathers H4191 , and died [H8799] H259 in the one H705 and fortieth H8141 year H4427 of his reign [H8800] .

14 H6912 And they buried [H8799] H6913 him in his own sepulchres H3738 , which he had made [H8804] H5892 for himself in the city H1732 of David H7901 , and laid [H8686] H4904 him in the bed H4390 which was filled [H8765] H1314 with sweet odours H2177 and divers kinds H7543 of spices prepared [H8794] H4842 by the apothecaries H4639 ' art H8313 : and they made [H8799] H3966 a very H1419 great H8316 burning for him.
