H8083 H6240
Now in the eighteenth
H8141
year
H4428
of king
H3379
Jeroboam
H1121
the son
H5028
of Nebat
H4427 [H8804]
reigned
H38
Abijam
H3063
over Judah.
2
H7969
Three
H8141
years
H4427 [H8804]
he reigned
H3389
in Jerusalem
H517
. And his mother's
H8034
name
H4601
was Maachah
H1323
, the daughter
H53
of Abishalom.
3
H3212 [H8799]
And he walked
H2403
in all the sins
H1
of his father
H6213 [H8804]
, which he had done
H6440
before
H3824
him: and his heart
H8003
was not perfect
H3068
with the LORD
H430
his God
H3824
, as the heart
H1732
of David
H1
his father.
4
H1732
Nevertheless for David's
H3068
sake the LORD
H430
his God
H5414 [H8804]
gave
H5216
him a lamp
H3389
in Jerusalem
H6965 [H8687]
, to set up
H1121
his son
H310
after
H5975 [H8687]
him, and to establish
H3389
Jerusalem:
5
H1732
Because David
H6213 [H8804]
did
H3477
that which was right
H5869
in the eyes
H3068
of the LORD
H5493 [H8804]
, and turned not aside
H6680 [H8765]
from any thing that he commanded
H3117
him all the days
H2416
of his life
H1697
, except only in the matter
H223
of Uriah
H2850
the Hittite.
6
H4421
And there was war
H7346
between Rehoboam
H3379
and Jeroboam
H3117
all the days
H2416
of his life.
7
H3499
Now the rest
H1697
of the acts
H38
of Abijam
H6213 [H8804]
, and all that he did
H3789 [H8803]
, are they not written
H5612
in the book
H1697 H3117
of the chronicles
H4428
of the kings
H3063
of Judah
H4421
? And there was war
H38
between Abijam
H3379
and Jeroboam.
8
H38
And Abijam
H7901 [H8799]
slept
H1
with his fathers
H6912 [H8799]
; and they buried
H5892
him in the city
H1732
of David
H609
: and Asa
H1121
his son
H4427 [H8799]
reigned in his stead.
9
H6242
And in the twentieth
H8141
year
H3379
of Jeroboam
H4428
king
H3478
of Israel
H4427 [H8804]
reigned
H609
Asa
H3063
over Judah.
10
H705
And forty
H259
and one
H8141
years
H4427 [H8804]
reigned
H3389
he in Jerusalem
H517
. And his mother's
H8034
name
H4601
was Maachah
H1323
, the daughter
H53
of Abishalom.
11
H609
And Asa
H6213 [H8799]
did
H3477
that which was right
H5869
in the eyes
H3068
of the LORD
H1732
, as did David
H1
his father.
12
H5674 [H8686]
And he banished
H6945
the sodomites
H776
from the land
H5493 [H8686]
, and removed
H1544
all the idols
H1
that his fathers
H6213 [H8804]
had made.
13
H4601
And also Maachah
H517
his mother
H5493 [H8686]
, even her he removed
H1377
from being queen
H6213 [H8804]
, because she had made
H4656
an idol
H842
in a grove
H609
; and Asa
H3772 [H8799]
destroyed
H4656
her idol
H8313 [H8799]
, and burnt
H5158
it by the brook
H6939
Kidron.
14
H1116
But the high places
H5493 [H8804]
were not removed
H609
: nevertheless Asa's
H3824
heart
H8003
was perfect
H3068
with the LORD
H3117
all his days.
15
H935 [H8686]
And he brought
H6944 0
the things
H1
which his father
H6944
had dedicated
H6944
, and the things which himself had dedicated
H1004
, into the house
H3068
of the LORD
H3701
, silver
H2091
, and gold
H3627
, and vessels.
16
H4421
And there was war
H609
between Asa
H1201
and Baasha
H4428
king
H3478
of Israel
H3117
all their days.
17
H1201
And Baasha
H4428
king
H3478
of Israel
H5927 [H8799]
went up
H3063
against Judah
H1129 [H8799]
, and built
H7414
Ramah
H5414 [H8800]
, that he might not allow
H3318 [H8802]
any to go out
H935 [H8802]
or come in
H609
to Asa
H4428
king
H3063
of Judah.
18
H609
Then Asa
H3947 [H8799]
took
H3701
all the silver
H2091
and the gold
H3498 [H8737]
that were left
H214
in the treasuries
H1004
of the house
H3068
of the LORD
H214
, and the treasures
H4428
of the king's
H1004
house
H5414 [H8799]
, and delivered
H3027
them into the hand
H5650
of his servants
H4428
: and king
H609
Asa
H7971 [H8799]
sent
H1130
them to Benhadad
H1121
, the son
H2886
of Tabrimon
H1121
, the son
H2383
of Hezion
H4428
, king
H758
of Syria
H3427 [H8802]
, that dwelt
H1834
at Damascus
H559 [H8800]
, saying,
19
H1285
There is a league
H1
between me and thee, and between my father
H1
and thy father
H7971 [H8804]
: behold, I have sent
H7810
to thee a present
H3701
of silver
H2091
and gold
H3212 [H8798]
; come
H6565 [H8685]
and break
H1285
thy league
H1201
with Baasha
H4428
king
H3478
of Israel
H5927 [H8799]
, that he may depart from me.
20
H1130
So Benhadad
H8085 [H8799]
hearkened
H4428
to king
H609
Asa
H7971 [H8799]
, and sent
H8269
the captains
H2428
of the armies
H5892
which he had against the cities
H3478
of Israel
H5221 [H8686]
, and smote
H5859
Ijon
H1835
, and Dan
H62
, and Abelbethmaachah
H3672
, and all Cinneroth
H776
, with all the land
H5321
of Naphtali.
21
H1201
And it came to pass, when Baasha
H8085 [H8800]
heard
H2308 [H8799]
of it, that he stopped
H1129 [H8800]
building
H7414
Ramah
H3427 [H8799]
, and dwelt
H8656
in Tirzah.
22
H4428
Then king
H609
Asa
H8085 [H8689]
made a proclamation
H3063
throughout all Judah
H5355
; none was exempted
H5375 [H8799]
: and they took
H68
away the stones
H7414
of Ramah
H6086
, and its timber
H1201
, with which Baasha
H1129 [H8804]
had built it
H4428
; and king
H609
Asa
H1129 [H8799]
built
H1387
with them Geba
H1144
of Benjamin
H4709
, and Mizpah.
23
H3499
The rest
H1697
of all the acts
H609
of Asa
H1369
, and all his might
H6213 [H8804]
, and all that he did
H5892
, and the cities
H1129 [H8804]
which he built
H3789 [H8803]
, are they not written
H5612
in the book
H1697 H3117
of the chronicles
H4428
of the kings
H3063
of Judah
H6256
? Nevertheless in the time
H2209
of his old age
H2470 [H8804]
he was diseased
H7272
in his feet.
24
H609
And Asa
H7901 [H8799]
slept
H1
with his fathers
H6912 [H8735]
, and was buried
H1
with his fathers
H5892
in the city
H1732
of David
H1
his father
H3092
: and Jehoshaphat
H1121
his son
H4427 [H8799]
reigned in his stead.
25
H5070
And Nadab
H1121
the son
H3379
of Jeroboam
H4427 [H8804]
began to reign
H3478
over Israel
H8147
in the second
H8141
year
H609
of Asa
H4428
king
H3063
of Judah
H4427 [H8799]
, and reigned
H3478
over Israel
H8147
two
H8141
years.
26
H6213 [H8799]
And he did
H7451
evil
H5869
in the sight
H3068
of the LORD
H3212 [H8799]
, and walked
H1870
in the way
H1
of his father
H2403
, and in his sin
H3478
which he made Israel
H2398 [H8689]
to sin.
27
H1201
And Baasha
H1121
the son
H281
of Ahijah
H1004
, of the house
H3485
of Issachar
H7194 [H8799]
, conspired
H1201
against him; and Baasha
H5221 [H8686]
smote
H1405
him at Gibbethon
H6430
, which belonged to the Philistines
H5070
; for Nadab
H3478
and all Israel
H6696 [H8802]
laid siege
H1405
to Gibbethon.
28
H7969
Even in the third
H8141
year
H609
of Asa
H4428
king
H3063
of Judah
H1201
did Baasha
H4191 [H8686]
slay
H4427 [H8799]
him, and reigned in his stead.
29
H4427 [H8800]
And it came to pass, when he reigned
H5221 [H8689]
, that he smote
H1004
all the house
H3379
of Jeroboam
H7604 [H8689]
; he left
H3379
not to Jeroboam
H5397
any that breathed
H8045 [H8689]
, until he had destroyed
H1697
him, according to the saying
H3068
of the LORD
H1696 [H8765]
, which he spoke
H3027
by
H5650
his servant
H281
Ahijah
H7888
the Shilonite:
30
H2403
Because of the sins
H3379
of Jeroboam
H2398 [H8804]
which he sinned
H3478
, and which he made Israel
H2398 [H8689]
sin
H3708
, by his provocation
H3068
with which he provoked the LORD
H430
God
H3478
of Israel
H3707 [H8689]
to anger.
31
H3499
Now the rest
H1697
of the acts
H5070
of Nadab
H6213 [H8804]
, and all that he did
H3789 [H8803]
, are they not written
H5612
in the book
H1697 H3117
of the chronicles
H4428
of the kings
H3478
of Israel?
32
H4421
And there was war
H609
between Asa
H1201
and Baasha
H4428
king
H3478
of Israel
H3117
all their days.
