So AbijahH29 sleptH7901 with his fathersH1, and they buriedH6912 him in the cityH5892 of DavidH1732: and AsaH609 his sonH1121 reignedH4427 in his stead. In his daysH3117 the landH776 was quietH8252 tenH6235 yearsH8141.
And AsaH609 didH6213 that which was goodH2896 and rightH3477 in the eyesH5869 of the LORDH3068 his GodH430:
For he took awayH5493 the altarsH4196 of the strangeH5236 gods, and the high placesH1116, and brake downH7665 the imagesH4676, and cut downH1438 the grovesH842: {images: Heb. statues}
And commandedH559 JudahH3063 to seekH1875 the LORDH3068 GodH430 of their fathersH1, and to doH6213 the lawH8451 and the commandmentH4687.
Also he took awayH5493 out of all the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063 the high placesH1116 and the imagesH2553: and the kingdomH4467 was quietH8252 beforeH6440 him. {images: Heb. sun images}
And he builtH1129 fencedH4694 citiesH5892 in JudahH3063: for the landH776 had restH8252, and he had no warH4421 in those yearsH8141; because the LORDH3068 had given him restH5117.
Therefore he saidH559 unto JudahH3063, Let us buildH1129 these citiesH5892, and make aboutH5437 them wallsH2346, and towersH4026, gatesH1817, and barsH1280, while the landH776 is yet beforeH6440 us; because we have soughtH1875 the LORDH3068 our GodH430, we have soughtH1875 him, and he hath given us restH5117 on every sideH5439. So they builtH1129 and prosperedH6743.
Now in the eighteenthH8083+H6240 yearH8141 of kingH4428 JeroboamH3379 the sonH1121 of NebatH5028 reignedH4427 AbijamH38 over JudahH3063.
ThreeH7969 yearsH8141 reignedH4427 he in JerusalemH3389. And his mother'sH517 nameH8034 was MaachahH4601, the daughterH1323 of AbishalomH53.
And he walkedH3212 in all the sinsH2403 of his fatherH1, which he had doneH6213 beforeH6440 him: and his heartH3824 was not perfectH8003 with the LORDH3068 his GodH430, as the heartH3824 of DavidH1732 his fatherH1.
Nevertheless for David'sH1732 sake did the LORDH3068 his GodH430 giveH5414 him a lampH5216 in JerusalemH3389, to set upH6965 his sonH1121 afterH310 him, and to establishH5975 JerusalemH3389: {lamp: or, candle}
Because DavidH1732 didH6213 that which was rightH3477 in the eyesH5869 of the LORDH3068, and turned not asideH5493 from any thing that he commandedH6680 him all the daysH3117 of his lifeH2416, save only in the matterH1697 of UriahH223 the HittiteH2850.
And there was warH4421 between RehoboamH7346 and JeroboamH3379 all the daysH3117 of his lifeH2416.
Now the restH3499 of the actsH1697 of AbijamH38, and all that he didH6213, are they not writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of the chroniclesH1697+H3117 of the kingsH4428 of JudahH3063? And there was warH4421 between AbijamH38 and JeroboamH3379.
And AbijamH38 sleptH7901 with his fathersH1; and they buriedH6912 him in the cityH5892 of DavidH1732: and AsaH609 his sonH1121 reignedH4427 in his stead.
And in the twentiethH6242 yearH8141 of JeroboamH3379 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 reignedH4427 AsaH609 over JudahH3063.
And fortyH705 and oneH259 yearsH8141 reignedH4427 he in JerusalemH3389. And his mother'sH517 nameH8034 was MaachahH4601, the daughterH1323 of AbishalomH53. {mother's: that is, grandmother's}
And AsaH609 didH6213 that which was rightH3477 in the eyesH5869 of the LORDH3068, as did DavidH1732 his fatherH1.
And he took awayH5674 the sodomitesH6945 out of the landH776, and removedH5493 all the idolsH1544 that his fathersH1 had madeH6213.
And also MaachahH4601 his motherH517, even her he removedH5493 from being queenH1377, because she had madeH6213 an idolH4656 in a groveH842; and AsaH609 destroyedH3772 her idolH4656, and burntH8313 it by the brookH5158 KidronH6939. {destroyed: Heb. cut off}
But the high placesH1116 were not removedH5493: nevertheless Asa'sH609 heartH3824 was perfectH8003 with the LORDH3068 all his daysH3117.
And he broughtH935 in the thingsH6944 which his fatherH1 had dedicatedH6944, and the things which himself had dedicatedH6944, into the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, silverH3701, and goldH2091, and vesselsH3627. {things: Heb. holy}
And there was warH4421 between AsaH609 and BaashaH1201 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 all their daysH3117.
And BaashaH1201 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 went upH5927 against JudahH3063, and builtH1129 RamahH7414, that he might not sufferH5414 any to go outH3318 or come inH935 to AsaH609 kingH4428 of JudahH3063.
Then AsaH609 tookH3947 all the silverH3701 and the goldH2091 that were leftH3498 in the treasuresH214 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and the treasuresH214 of the king'sH4428 houseH1004, and deliveredH5414 them into the handH3027 of his servantsH5650: and kingH4428 AsaH609 sentH7971 them to BenhadadH1130, the sonH1121 of TabrimonH2886, the sonH1121 of HezionH2383, kingH4428 of SyriaH758, that dweltH3427 at DamascusH1834, sayingH559,
There is a leagueH1285 between me and thee, and between my fatherH1 and thy fatherH1: behold, I have sentH7971 unto thee a presentH7810 of silverH3701 and goldH2091; comeH3212 and breakH6565 thy leagueH1285 with BaashaH1201 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478, that he may departH5927 from me. {depart: Heb. go up}
So BenhadadH1130 hearkenedH8085 unto kingH4428 AsaH609, and sentH7971 the captainsH8269 of the hostsH2428 which he had against the citiesH5892 of IsraelH3478, and smoteH5221 IjonH5859, and DanH1835, and AbelbethmaachahH62, and all CinnerothH3672, with all the landH776 of NaphtaliH5321.
And it came to pass, when BaashaH1201 heardH8085 thereof, that he left offH2308 buildingH1129 of RamahH7414, and dweltH3427 in TirzahH8656.
Then kingH4428 AsaH609 made a proclamationH8085 throughout all JudahH3063; none was exemptedH5355: and they tookH5375 away the stonesH68 of RamahH7414, and the timberH6086 thereof, wherewith BaashaH1201 had buildedH1129; and kingH4428 AsaH609 builtH1129 with them GebaH1387 of BenjaminH1144, and MizpahH4709. {exempted: Heb. free}
The restH3499 of all the actsH1697 of AsaH609, and all his mightH1369, and all that he didH6213, and the citiesH5892 which he builtH1129, are they not writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of the chroniclesH1697+H3117 of the kingsH4428 of JudahH3063? Nevertheless in the timeH6256 of his old ageH2209 he was diseasedH2470 in his feetH7272.
And AsaH609 sleptH7901 with his fathersH1, and was buriedH6912 with his fathersH1 in the cityH5892 of DavidH1732 his fatherH1: and JehoshaphatH3092 his sonH1121 reignedH4427 in his stead. {Jehoshaphat: Gr. Josaphat}
And NadabH5070 the sonH1121 of JeroboamH3379 began to reignH4427 over IsraelH3478 in the secondH8147 yearH8141 of AsaH609 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, and reignedH4427 over IsraelH3478 twoH8147 yearsH8141. {began…: Heb. reigned}
And he didH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068, and walkedH3212 in the wayH1870 of his fatherH1, and in his sinH2403 wherewith he made IsraelH3478 to sinH2398.
And BaashaH1201 the sonH1121 of AhijahH281, of the houseH1004 of IssacharH3485, conspiredH7194 against him; and BaashaH1201 smoteH5221 him at GibbethonH1405, which belonged to the PhilistinesH6430; for NadabH5070 and all IsraelH3478 laid siegeH6696 to GibbethonH1405.
Even in the thirdH7969 yearH8141 of AsaH609 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 did BaashaH1201 slayH4191 him, and reignedH4427 in his stead.
And it came to pass, when he reignedH4427, that he smoteH5221 all the houseH1004 of JeroboamH3379; he leftH7604 not to JeroboamH3379 any that breathedH5397, until he had destroyedH8045 him, according unto the sayingH1697 of the LORDH3068, which he spakeH1696 byH3027 his servantH5650 AhijahH281 the ShiloniteH7888:
Because of the sinsH2403 of JeroboamH3379 which he sinnedH2398, and which he made IsraelH3478 sinH2398, by his provocationH3708 wherewith he provoked the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478 to angerH3707.
Now the restH3499 of the actsH1697 of NadabH5070, and all that he didH6213, are they not writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of the chroniclesH1697+H3117 of the kingsH4428 of IsraelH3478?
And there was warH4421 between AsaH609 and BaashaH1201 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 all their daysH3117.
In the thirdH7969 yearH8141 of AsaH609 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 began BaashaH1201 the sonH1121 of AhijahH281 to reignH4427 over all IsraelH3478 in TirzahH8656, twentyH6242 and fourH702 yearsH8141.
And he didH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068, and walkedH3212 in the wayH1870 of JeroboamH3379, and in his sinH2403 wherewith he made IsraelH3478 to sinH2398.
And in the twentiethH6242 yearH8141 of JeroboamH3379 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 reignedH4427 AsaH609 over JudahH3063.
And fortyH705 and oneH259 yearsH8141 reignedH4427 he in JerusalemH3389. And his mother'sH517 nameH8034 was MaachahH4601, the daughterH1323 of AbishalomH53. {mother's: that is, grandmother's}
And AsaH609 didH6213 that which was rightH3477 in the eyesH5869 of the LORDH3068, as did DavidH1732 his fatherH1.
And he took awayH5674 the sodomitesH6945 out of the landH776, and removedH5493 all the idolsH1544 that his fathersH1 had madeH6213.
And also MaachahH4601 his motherH517, even her he removedH5493 from being queenH1377, because she had madeH6213 an idolH4656 in a groveH842; and AsaH609 destroyedH3772 her idolH4656, and burntH8313 it by the brookH5158 KidronH6939. {destroyed: Heb. cut off}
But the high placesH1116 were not removedH5493: nevertheless Asa'sH609 heartH3824 was perfectH8003 with the LORDH3068 all his daysH3117.
And he broughtH935 in the thingsH6944 which his fatherH1 had dedicatedH6944, and the things which himself had dedicatedH6944, into the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, silverH3701, and goldH2091, and vesselsH3627. {things: Heb. holy}
And there was warH4421 between AsaH609 and BaashaH1201 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 all their daysH3117.
And BaashaH1201 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 went upH5927 against JudahH3063, and builtH1129 RamahH7414, that he might not sufferH5414 any to go outH3318 or come inH935 to AsaH609 kingH4428 of JudahH3063.
Then AsaH609 tookH3947 all the silverH3701 and the goldH2091 that were leftH3498 in the treasuresH214 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and the treasuresH214 of the king'sH4428 houseH1004, and deliveredH5414 them into the handH3027 of his servantsH5650: and kingH4428 AsaH609 sentH7971 them to BenhadadH1130, the sonH1121 of TabrimonH2886, the sonH1121 of HezionH2383, kingH4428 of SyriaH758, that dweltH3427 at DamascusH1834, sayingH559,
There is a leagueH1285 between me and thee, and between my fatherH1 and thy fatherH1: behold, I have sentH7971 unto thee a presentH7810 of silverH3701 and goldH2091; comeH3212 and breakH6565 thy leagueH1285 with BaashaH1201 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478, that he may departH5927 from me. {depart: Heb. go up}
So BenhadadH1130 hearkenedH8085 unto kingH4428 AsaH609, and sentH7971 the captainsH8269 of the hostsH2428 which he had against the citiesH5892 of IsraelH3478, and smoteH5221 IjonH5859, and DanH1835, and AbelbethmaachahH62, and all CinnerothH3672, with all the landH776 of NaphtaliH5321.
And it came to pass, when BaashaH1201 heardH8085 thereof, that he left offH2308 buildingH1129 of RamahH7414, and dweltH3427 in TirzahH8656.
Then kingH4428 AsaH609 made a proclamationH8085 throughout all JudahH3063; none was exemptedH5355: and they tookH5375 away the stonesH68 of RamahH7414, and the timberH6086 thereof, wherewith BaashaH1201 had buildedH1129; and kingH4428 AsaH609 builtH1129 with them GebaH1387 of BenjaminH1144, and MizpahH4709. {exempted: Heb. free}
The restH3499 of all the actsH1697 of AsaH609, and all his mightH1369, and all that he didH6213, and the citiesH5892 which he builtH1129, are they not writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of the chroniclesH1697+H3117 of the kingsH4428 of JudahH3063? Nevertheless in the timeH6256 of his old ageH2209 he was diseasedH2470 in his feetH7272.
And AsaH609 sleptH7901 with his fathersH1, and was buriedH6912 with his fathersH1 in the cityH5892 of DavidH1732 his fatherH1: and JehoshaphatH3092 his sonH1121 reignedH4427 in his stead. {Jehoshaphat: Gr. Josaphat}
So AbijahH29 sleptH7901 with his fathersH1, and they buriedH6912 him in the cityH5892 of DavidH1732: and AsaH609 his sonH1121 reignedH4427 in his stead. In his daysH3117 the landH776 was quietH8252 tenH6235 yearsH8141.
And AsaH609 didH6213 that which was goodH2896 and rightH3477 in the eyesH5869 of the LORDH3068 his GodH430:
For he took awayH5493 the altarsH4196 of the strangeH5236 gods, and the high placesH1116, and brake downH7665 the imagesH4676, and cut downH1438 the grovesH842: {images: Heb. statues}
And commandedH559 JudahH3063 to seekH1875 the LORDH3068 GodH430 of their fathersH1, and to doH6213 the lawH8451 and the commandmentH4687.
Also he took awayH5493 out of all the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063 the high placesH1116 and the imagesH2553: and the kingdomH4467 was quietH8252 beforeH6440 him. {images: Heb. sun images}
And he builtH1129 fencedH4694 citiesH5892 in JudahH3063: for the landH776 had restH8252, and he had no warH4421 in those yearsH8141; because the LORDH3068 had given him restH5117.
Therefore he saidH559 unto JudahH3063, Let us buildH1129 these citiesH5892, and make aboutH5437 them wallsH2346, and towersH4026, gatesH1817, and barsH1280, while the landH776 is yet beforeH6440 us; because we have soughtH1875 the LORDH3068 our GodH430, we have soughtH1875 him, and he hath given us restH5117 on every sideH5439. So they builtH1129 and prosperedH6743.
And AsaH609 had an armyH2428 of men that bareH5375 targetsH6793 and spearsH7420, out of JudahH3063 threeH7969 hundredH3967 thousandH505; and out of BenjaminH1144, that bareH5375 shieldsH4043 and drewH1869 bowsH7198, two hundredH3967 and fourscoreH8084 thousandH505: all these were mighty menH1368 of valourH2428.
And AsaH609 had an armyH2428 of men that bareH5375 targetsH6793 and spearsH7420, out of JudahH3063 threeH7969 hundredH3967 thousandH505; and out of BenjaminH1144, that bareH5375 shieldsH4043 and drewH1869 bowsH7198, two hundredH3967 and fourscoreH8084 thousandH505: all these were mighty menH1368 of valourH2428.
And there came outH3318 against them ZerahH2226 the EthiopianH3569 with an hostH2428 of a thousandH505 thousandH505, and threeH7969 hundredH3967 chariotsH4818; and cameH935 unto MareshahH4762.
Then AsaH609 went outH3318 againstH6440 him, and they set the battleH4421 in arrayH6186 in the valleyH1516 of ZephathahH6859 at MareshahH4762.
And AsaH609 criedH7121 unto the LORDH3068 his GodH430, and saidH559, LORDH3068, it is nothing with thee to helpH5826, whetherH996 with manyH7227, or with them that have no powerH3581: helpH5826 us, O LORDH3068 our GodH430; for we restH8172 on thee, and in thy nameH8034 we goH935 against this multitudeH1995. O LORDH3068, thou art our GodH430; let not manH582 prevailH6113 against thee. {man: or, mortal man}
So the LORDH3068 smoteH5062 the EthiopiansH3569 beforeH6440 AsaH609, and beforeH6440 JudahH3063; and the EthiopiansH3569 fledH5127.
And AsaH609 and the peopleH5971 that were with him pursuedH7291 them unto GerarH1642: and the EthiopiansH3569 were overthrownH5307, that they could not recoverH4241 themselves; for they were destroyedH7665 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, and beforeH6440 his hostH4264; and they carried awayH5375 veryH3966 muchH7235 spoilH7998. {destroyed: Heb. broken}
And they smoteH5221 all the citiesH5892 round aboutH5439 GerarH1642; for the fearH6343 of the LORDH3068 came upon them: and they spoiledH962 all the citiesH5892; for there was exceeding muchH7227 spoilH961 in them.
And the SpiritH7307 of GodH430 came upon AzariahH5838 the sonH1121 of OdedH5752:
And he went outH3318 to meetH6440 AsaH609, and saidH559 unto him, HearH8085 ye me, AsaH609, and all JudahH3063 and BenjaminH1144; The LORDH3068 is with you, while ye be with him; and if ye seekH1875 him, he will be foundH4672 of you; but if ye forsakeH5800 him, he will forsakeH5800 you. {to meet…: Heb. before Asa}
Now for a longH7227 seasonH3117 IsraelH3478 hath been withoutH3808 the trueH571 GodH430, and without a teachingH3384 priestH3548, and without lawH8451.
But when they in their troubleH6862 did turnH7725 unto the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478, and soughtH1245 him, he was foundH4672 of them.
And in those timesH6256 there was no peaceH7965 to him that went outH3318, nor to him that came inH935, but greatH7227 vexationsH4103 were upon all the inhabitantsH3427 of the countriesH776.
And nationH1471 was destroyedH3807 of nationH1471, and cityH5892 of cityH5892: for GodH430 did vexH2000 them with all adversityH6869. {destroyed: Heb. beaten in pieces}
Be ye strongH2388 therefore, and let not your handsH3027 be weakH7503: for your workH6468 shall beH3426 rewardedH7939.
And when AsaH609 heardH8085 these wordsH1697, and the prophecyH5016 of OdedH5752 the prophetH5030, he took courageH2388, and put awayH5674 the abominable idolsH8251 out of all the landH776 of JudahH3063 and BenjaminH1144, and out of the citiesH5892 which he had takenH3920 from mountH2022 EphraimH669, and renewedH2318 the altarH4196 of the LORDH3068, that was beforeH6440 the porchH197 of the LORDH3068. {abominable…: Heb. abominations}
And he gatheredH6908 all JudahH3063 and BenjaminH1144, and the strangersH1481 with them out of EphraimH669 and ManassehH4519, and out of SimeonH8095: for they fellH5307 to him out of IsraelH3478 in abundanceH7230, when they sawH7200 that the LORDH3068 his GodH430 was with him.
So they gathered themselves togetherH6908 at JerusalemH3389 in the thirdH7992 monthH2320, in the fifteenthH2568+H6240 yearH8141 of the reignH4438 of AsaH609.
And they offeredH2076 unto the LORDH3068 the same timeH3117, of the spoilH7998 which they had broughtH935, sevenH7651 hundredH3967 oxenH1241 and sevenH7651 thousandH505 sheepH6629. {the same…: Heb. in that day}
And they enteredH935 into a covenantH1285 to seekH1875 the LORDH3068 GodH430 of their fathersH1 with all their heartH3824 and with all their soulH5315;
That whosoever would not seekH1875 the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478 should be put to deathH4191, whetherH4480 smallH6996 or greatH1419, whether manH376 or womanH802.
And they swareH7650 unto the LORDH3068 with a loudH1419 voiceH6963, and with shoutingH8643, and with trumpetsH2689, and with cornetsH7782.
And all JudahH3063 rejoicedH8055 at the oathH7621: for they had swornH7650 with all their heartH3824, and soughtH1245 him with their whole desireH7522; and he was foundH4672 of them: and the LORDH3068 gave them restH5117 round aboutH5439.
And also concerning MaachahH4601 the motherH517 of AsaH609 the kingH4428, he removedH5493 her from being queenH1377, because she had madeH6213 an idolH4656 in a groveH842: and AsaH609 cut downH3772 her idolH4656, and stampedH1854 it, and burntH8313 it at the brookH5158 KidronH6939. {mother: that is, grandmother} {idol: Heb. horror}
But the high placesH1116 were not taken awayH5493 out of IsraelH3478: nevertheless the heartH3824 of AsaH609 was perfectH8003 all his daysH3117.
And he broughtH935 into the houseH1004 of GodH430 the things that his fatherH1 had dedicatedH6944, and that he himself had dedicatedH6944, silverH3701, and goldH2091, and vesselsH3627.
And there was no more warH4421 unto the fiveH2568 and thirtiethH7970 yearH8141 of the reignH4438 of AsaH609.
In the sixH8337 and thirtiethH7970 yearH8141 of the reignH4438 of AsaH609 BaashaH1201 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 came upH5927 against JudahH3063, and builtH1129 RamahH7414, to the intent thatH1115 he might letH5414 none go outH3318 or come inH935 to AsaH609 kingH4428 of JudahH3063.
Then AsaH609 brought outH3318 silverH3701 and goldH2091 out of the treasuresH214 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 and of the king'sH4428 houseH1004, and sentH7971 to BenhadadH1130 kingH4428 of SyriaH758, that dweltH3427 at DamascusH1834, sayingH559, {Damascus: Heb. Darmesek}
There is a leagueH1285 between me and thee, as there was between my fatherH1 and thy fatherH1: behold, I have sentH7971 thee silverH3701 and goldH2091; goH3212, breakH6565 thy leagueH1285 with BaashaH1201 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478, that he may departH5927 from me.
And BenhadadH1130 hearkenedH8085 unto kingH4428 AsaH609, and sentH7971 the captainsH8269 of his armiesH2428 against the citiesH5892 of IsraelH3478; and they smoteH5221 IjonH5859, and DanH1835, and AbelmaimH66, and all the storeH4543 citiesH5892 of NaphtaliH5321. {his: Heb. which were his}
And it came to pass, when BaashaH1201 heardH8085 it, that he left offH2308 buildingH1129 of RamahH7414, and let his workH4399 ceaseH7673.
Then AsaH609 the kingH4428 tookH3947 all JudahH3063; and they carried awayH5375 the stonesH68 of RamahH7414, and the timberH6086 thereof, wherewith BaashaH1201 was buildingH1129; and he builtH1129 therewith GebaH1387 and MizpahH4709.
And at that timeH6256 HananiH2607 the seerH7200 cameH935 to AsaH609 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, and saidH559 unto him, Because thou hast reliedH8172 on the kingH4428 of SyriaH758, and not reliedH8172 on the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, therefore is the hostH2428 of the kingH4428 of SyriaH758 escapedH4422 out of thine handH3027.
Were not the EthiopiansH3569 and the LubimsH3864 a hugeH7230 hostH2428, with veryH3966 manyH7235 chariotsH7393 and horsemenH6571? yet, because thou didst relyH8172 on the LORDH3068, he deliveredH5414 them into thine handH3027. {a huge: Heb. in abundance}
For the eyesH5869 of the LORDH3068 run to and froH7751 throughout the whole earthH776, to shew himself strongH2388 in the behalf of them whose heartH3824 is perfectH8003 toward him. Herein thou hast done foolishlyH5528: therefore from henceforthH6258 thou shalt haveH3426 warsH4421. {to shew…: or, strongly to hold with them, etc}
Then AsaH609 was wrothH3707 with the seerH7200, and putH5414 him in a prisonH4115 houseH1004; for he was in a rageH2197 with him because of this thing. And AsaH609 oppressedH7533 some of the peopleH5971 the same timeH6256. {oppressed: Heb. crushed}
And, behold, the actsH1697 of AsaH609, firstH7223 and lastH314, lo, they are writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of the kingsH4428 of JudahH3063 and IsraelH3478.
And AsaH609 in the thirtyH7970 and ninthH8672 yearH8141 of his reignH4438 was diseasedH2456 in his feetH7272, until his diseaseH2483 was exceedingH4605 great: yet in his diseaseH2483 he soughtH1875 not to the LORDH3068, but to the physiciansH7495.
And AsaH609 sleptH7901 with his fathersH1, and diedH4191 in the oneH259 and fortiethH705 yearH8141 of his reignH4427.
And they buriedH6912 him in his own sepulchresH6913, which he had madeH3738 for himself in the cityH5892 of DavidH1732, and laidH7901 him in the bedH4904 which was filledH4390 with sweet odoursH1314 and divers kindsH2177 of spices preparedH7543 by the apothecaries'H4842 artH4639: and they madeH8313 a veryH3966 greatH1419 burningH8316 for him. {had made: Heb. had digged}
And, behold, the actsH1697 of AsaH609, firstH7223 and lastH314, lo, they are writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of the kingsH4428 of JudahH3063 and IsraelH3478.
In the sixH8337 and thirtiethH7970 yearH8141 of the reignH4438 of AsaH609 BaashaH1201 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 came upH5927 against JudahH3063, and builtH1129 RamahH7414, to the intent thatH1115 he might letH5414 none go outH3318 or come inH935 to AsaH609 kingH4428 of JudahH3063.
Then AsaH609 brought outH3318 silverH3701 and goldH2091 out of the treasuresH214 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 and of the king'sH4428 houseH1004, and sentH7971 to BenhadadH1130 kingH4428 of SyriaH758, that dweltH3427 at DamascusH1834, sayingH559, {Damascus: Heb. Darmesek}
There is a leagueH1285 between me and thee, as there was between my fatherH1 and thy fatherH1: behold, I have sentH7971 thee silverH3701 and goldH2091; goH3212, breakH6565 thy leagueH1285 with BaashaH1201 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478, that he may departH5927 from me.
And BenhadadH1130 hearkenedH8085 unto kingH4428 AsaH609, and sentH7971 the captainsH8269 of his armiesH2428 against the citiesH5892 of IsraelH3478; and they smoteH5221 IjonH5859, and DanH1835, and AbelmaimH66, and all the storeH4543 citiesH5892 of NaphtaliH5321. {his: Heb. which were his}
And it came to pass, when BaashaH1201 heardH8085 it, that he left offH2308 buildingH1129 of RamahH7414, and let his workH4399 ceaseH7673.
Then AsaH609 the kingH4428 tookH3947 all JudahH3063; and they carried awayH5375 the stonesH68 of RamahH7414, and the timberH6086 thereof, wherewith BaashaH1201 was buildingH1129; and he builtH1129 therewith GebaH1387 and MizpahH4709.
And at that timeH6256 HananiH2607 the seerH7200 cameH935 to AsaH609 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, and saidH559 unto him, Because thou hast reliedH8172 on the kingH4428 of SyriaH758, and not reliedH8172 on the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, therefore is the hostH2428 of the kingH4428 of SyriaH758 escapedH4422 out of thine handH3027.
Were not the EthiopiansH3569 and the LubimsH3864 a hugeH7230 hostH2428, with veryH3966 manyH7235 chariotsH7393 and horsemenH6571? yet, because thou didst relyH8172 on the LORDH3068, he deliveredH5414 them into thine handH3027. {a huge: Heb. in abundance}
For the eyesH5869 of the LORDH3068 run to and froH7751 throughout the whole earthH776, to shew himself strongH2388 in the behalf of them whose heartH3824 is perfectH8003 toward him. Herein thou hast done foolishlyH5528: therefore from henceforthH6258 thou shalt haveH3426 warsH4421. {to shew…: or, strongly to hold with them, etc}
Then AsaH609 was wrothH3707 with the seerH7200, and putH5414 him in a prisonH4115 houseH1004; for he was in a rageH2197 with him because of this thing. And AsaH609 oppressedH7533 some of the peopleH5971 the same timeH6256. {oppressed: Heb. crushed}
And, behold, the actsH1697 of AsaH609, firstH7223 and lastH314, lo, they are writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of the kingsH4428 of JudahH3063 and IsraelH3478.
And AsaH609 in the thirtyH7970 and ninthH8672 yearH8141 of his reignH4438 was diseasedH2456 in his feetH7272, until his diseaseH2483 was exceedingH4605 great: yet in his diseaseH2483 he soughtH1875 not to the LORDH3068, but to the physiciansH7495.
And AsaH609 sleptH7901 with his fathersH1, and diedH4191 in the oneH259 and fortiethH705 yearH8141 of his reignH4427.
And they buriedH6912 him in his own sepulchresH6913, which he had madeH3738 for himself in the cityH5892 of DavidH1732, and laidH7901 him in the bedH4904 which was filledH4390 with sweet odoursH1314 and divers kindsH2177 of spices preparedH7543 by the apothecaries'H4842 artH4639: and they madeH8313 a veryH3966 greatH1419 burningH8316 for him. {had made: Heb. had digged}
HisG846 headG2776 andG2532 his hairsG2359 were whiteG3022 likeG5616 woolG2053, as whiteG3022 asG5613 snowG5510; andG2532 hisG846 eyesG3788 were asG5613 a flameG5395 of fireG4442;
In the secondH8147 yearH8141 of PekahH6492 the sonH1121 of RemaliahH7425 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 began JothamH3147 the sonH1121 of UzziahH5818 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 to reignH4427.
FiveH2568 and twentyH6242 yearsH8141 oldH1121 was he when he began to reignH4427, and he reignedH4427 sixteenH8337+H6240 yearsH8141 in JerusalemH3389. And his mother'sH517 nameH8034 was JerushaH3388, the daughterH1323 of ZadokH6659.
And he didH6213 that which was rightH3477 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068: he didH6213 according to all that his fatherH1 UzziahH5818 had doneH6213.
Howbeit the high placesH1116 were not removedH5493: the peopleH5971 sacrificedH2076 and burned incenseH6999 still in the high placesH1116. He builtH1129 the higherH5945 gateH8179 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068.
Now the restH3499 of the actsH1697 of JothamH3147, and all that he didH6213, are they not writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of the chroniclesH1697+H3117 of the kingsH4428 of JudahH3063?
In those daysH3117 the LORDH3068 beganH2490 to sendH7971 against JudahH3063 RezinH7526 the kingH4428 of SyriaH758, and PekahH6492 the sonH1121 of RemaliahH7425.
And JothamH3147 sleptH7901 with his fathersH1, and was buriedH6912 with his fathersH1 in the cityH5892 of DavidH1732 his fatherH1: and AhazH271 his sonH1121 reignedH4427 in his stead.
WhenG3752 the uncleanG169 spiritG4151 is goneG1831 out ofG575 a manG444, he walkethG1330 throughG1223 dryG504 placesG5117, seekingG2212 restG372, andG2532 findethG2147 noneG3756.
ThenG5119 he saithG3004, I will returnG1994 intoG1519 myG3450 houseG3624 from whenceG3606 I came outG1831; andG2532 when he is comeG2064, he findethG2147 it emptyG4980, sweptG4563, andG2532 garnishedG2885.
ThenG5119 goeth heG4198, andG2532 takethG3880 withG3326 himselfG1438 sevenG2033 otherG2087 spiritsG4151 more wickedG4191 than himselfG1438, andG2532 they enter inG1525 and dwellG2730 thereG1563: andG2532 the lastG2078 state of thatG1565 manG444 isG1096 worse thanG5501 the firstG4413. Even soG3779 shall it beG2071 alsoG2532 unto thisG5026 wickedG4190 generationG1074.
ThenG3303+G3767 hadG2192 the churchesG1577 restG1515 throughoutG2596 allG3650 JudaeaG2449 andG2532 GalileeG1056 andG2532 SamariaG4540, and were edifiedG3618; andG2532 walking inG4198 the fearG5401 of the LordG2962, andG2532 in the comfortG3874 of the HolyG40 GhostG4151, were multipliedG4129.
