1 Now in the eighteenth8083 6240 year8141 of king4428 Jeroboam3379 the son1121 of Nebat5028 reigned4427 Abijam38 over5921 Judah.3063
2 Three7969 years8141 reigned4427 he in Jerusalem.3389 And his mother's517 name8034 was Maachah,4601 the daughter1323 of Abishalom.53
3 And he walked1980 in all3605 the sins2403 of his father,1 which834 he had done6213 before6440 him: and his heart3824 was1961 not3808 perfect8003 with5973 the LORD3068 his God,430 as the heart3824 of David1732 his father.1
4 Nevertheless3588 for David's sake4616 1732 did the LORD3068 his God430 give5414 him a lamp5216 in Jerusalem,3389 to set up6965 853 his son1121 after310 him, and to establish5975 853 Jerusalem:3389
5 Because834 David1732 did6213 that which was 853 right3477 in the eyes5869 of the Lord,3068 and turned not aside3808 5493 from any4480 3605 thing that834 he commanded6680 him all3605 the days3117 of his life,2416 save only7535 in the matter1697 of Uriah223 the Hittite.2850
6 And there was1961 war4421 between996 Rehoboam7346 and Jeroboam3379 all3605 the days3117 of his life.2416
7 Now the rest3499 of the acts1697 of Abijam,38 and all3605 that834 he did,6213 are they1992 not3808 written3789 in5921 the book5612 of the chronicles1697 3117 of the kings4428 of Judah?3063 And there was1961 war4421 between996 Abijam38 and Jeroboam.3379
8 And Abijam38 slept7901 with5973 his fathers;1 and they buried6912 him in the city5892 of David:1732 and Asa609 his son1121 reigned4427 in his stead.8478
9 And in the twentieth6242 year8141 of Jeroboam3379 king4428 of Israel3478 reigned4427 4428 Asa609 over Judah.3063
10 And forty705 and one259 years8141 reigned4427 he in Jerusalem.3389 And his mother's517 name8034 was Maachah,4601 the daughter1323 of Abishalom.53
11 And Asa609 did6213 that which was right3477 in the eyes5869 of the Lord,3068 as did David1732 his father.1
12 And he took away5674 the sodomites6945 out of4480 the land,776 and removed5493 853 all3605 the idols1544 that834 his fathers1 had made.6213
13 And also1571 853 Maachah4601 his mother,517 even her he removed5493 from being queen,4480 1377 because834 she had made6213 an idol4656 in a grove;842 and Asa609 destroyed3772 853 her idol,4656 and burnt8313 it by the brook5158 Kidron.6939
14 But the high places1116 were not3808 removed:5493 nevertheless7535 Asa's609 heart3824 was1961 perfect8003 with5973 the LORD3068 all3605 his days.3117
15 And he brought in935 853 the things which his father1 had dedicated,6944 and the things which himself had dedicated,6944 into the house1004 of the Lord,3068 silver,3701 and gold,2091 and vessels.3627
16 And there was1961 war4421 between996 Asa609 and Baasha1201 king4428 of Israel3478 all3605 their days.3117
17 And Baasha1201 king4428 of Israel3478 went up5927 against5921 Judah,3063 and built1129 853 Ramah,7414 that he might not1115 suffer5414 any to go out3318 or come in935 to Asa609 king4428 of Judah.3063
18 Then Asa609 took3947 853 all3605 the silver3701 and the gold2091 that were left3498 in the treasures214 of the house1004 of the Lord,3068 and the treasures214 of the king's4428 house,1004 and delivered5414 them into the hand3027 of his servants:5650 and king4428 Asa609 sent7971 them to413 Ben-hadad,1130 the son1121 of Tabrimon,2886 the son1121 of Hezion,2383 king4428 of Syria,758 that dwelt3427 at Damascus,1834 saying,559
19 There is a league1285 between996 me and thee, and between996 my father1 and thy father:1 behold,2009 I have sent7971 unto thee a present7810 of silver3701 and gold;2091 come1980 and break6565 853 thy league1285 with854 Baasha1201 king4428 of Israel,3478 that he may depart5927 from4480 5921 me.
20 So Ben-hadad1130 hearkened8085 unto413 king4428 Asa,609 and sent7971 853 the captains8269 of the hosts2428 which834 he had against5921 the cities5892 of Israel,3478 and smote5221 853 Ijon,5859 and Dan,1835 and Abel-beth-maachah,62 and all3605 Cinneroth,3672 with5921 all3605 the land776 of Naphtali.5321
21 And it came to pass,1961 when Baasha1201 heard8085 ther, that he left off2308 building4480 1129 of 853 Ramah,7414 and dwelt3427 in Tirzah.8656
22 Then king4428 Asa609 made a proclamation8085 throughout 853 all3605 Judah;3063 none369 was exempted:5355 and they took away5375 853 the stones68 of Ramah,7414 and the timber6086 ther, wherewith834 Baasha1201 had built;1129 and king4428 Asa609 built1129 with them 853 Geba1387 of Benjamin,1144 and Mizpah.4709
23 The rest3499 of all3605 the acts1697 of Asa,609 and all3605 his might,1369 and all3605 that834 he did,6213 and the cities5892 which834 he built,1129 are they1992 not3808 written3789 in5921 the book5612 of the chronicles1697 3117 of the kings4428 of Judah?3063 Nevertheless7535 in the time6256 of his old age2209 he was diseased2470 in 853 his feet.7272
24 And Asa609 slept7901 with5973 his fathers,1 and was buried6912 with5973 his fathers1 in the city5892 of David1732 his father:1 and Jehoshaphat3092 his son1121 reigned4427 in his stead.8478
25 And Nadab5070 the son1121 of Jeroboam3379 began to reign4427 over5921 Israel3478 in the second8147 year8141 of Asa609 king4428 of Judah,3063 and reigned4427 over5921 Israel3478 two years.8141
26 And he did6213 evil7451 in the sight5869 of the Lord,3068 and walked1980 in the way1870 of his father,1 and in his sin2403 wherewith834 he made Israel to sin.2398 853 3478
27 And Baasha1201 the son1121 of Ahijah,281 of the house1004 of Issachar,3485 conspired7194 against5921 him; and Baasha1201 smote5221 him at Gibbethon,1405 which834 belonged to the Philistines;6430 for Nadab5070 and all3605 Israel3478 laid siege6696 to5921 Gibbethon.1405
28 Even in the third7969 year8141 of Asa609 king4428 of Judah3063 did Baasha1201 slay4191 him, and reigned4427 in his stead.8478
29 And it came to pass,1961 when he reigned,4427 that he smote5221 853 all3605 the house1004 of Jeroboam;3379 he left7604 not3808 to Jeroboam3379 any3605 that breathed,5397 until5704 he had destroyed8045 him, according unto the saying1697 of the Lord,3068 which834 he spoke1696 by3027 his servant5650 Ahijah281 the Shilonite:7888
30 Because5921 of the sins2403 of Jeroboam3379 which834 he sinned,2398 and which834 he made Israel to sin,2398 853 3478 by his provocation3708 wherewith834 he provoked3707 853 the LORD3068 God430 of Israel3478 to anger.
31 Now the rest3499 of the acts1697 of Nadab,5070 and all3605 that834 he did,6213 are they1992 not3808 written3789 in5921 the book5612 of the chronicles1697 3117 of the kings4428 of Israel?3478
32 And there was1961 war4421 between996 Asa609 and Baasha1201 king4428 of Israel3478 all3605 their days.3117
33 In the third7969 year8141 of Asa609 king4428 of Judah3063 began Baasha1201 the son1121 of Ahijah281 to reign4427 over5921 all3605 Israel3478 in Tirzah,8656 twenty6242 and four702 years.8141
34 And he did6213 evil7451 in the sight5869 of the Lord,3068 and walked1980 in the way1870 of Jeroboam,3379 and in his sin2403 wherewith834 he made Israel to sin.2398 853 3478
1 Igitur in octavodecimo anno regni Jeroboam filii Nabat, regnavit Abiam super Judam.
2 Tribus annis regnavit in Jerusalem: nomen matris ejus Maacha filia Abessalom.
3 Ambulavitque in omnibus peccatis patris sui, qu fecerat ante eum: nec erat cor ejus perfectum cum Domino Deo suo, sicut cor David patris ejus.
4 Sed propter David dedit ei Dominus Deus suus lucernam in Jerusalem, ut suscitaret filium ejus post eum, et statueret Jerusalem:
5 eo quod fecisset David rectum in oculis Domini, et non declinasset ab omnibus qu prceperat ei cunctis diebus vit su, excepto sermone Uri Hethi.
6 Attamen bellum fuit inter Roboam et Jeroboam omni tempore vit ejus.
7 Reliqua autem sermonum Abiam, et omnia qu fecit, nonne hc scripta sunt in libro verborum dierum regum Juda? Fuitque prlium inter Abiam et inter Jeroboam.
8 Et dormivit Abiam cum patribus suis, et sepelierunt eum in civitate David, regnavitque Asa filius ejus pro eo.
9 In anno ergo vigesimo Jeroboam regis Isral regnavit Asa rex Juda,
10 et quadraginta et uno anno regnavit in Jerusalem. Nomen matris ejus Maacha filia Abessalom.
11 Et fecit Asa rectum ante conspectum Domini, sicut David pater ejus:
12 et abstulit effeminatos de terra, purgavitque universas sordes idolorum qu fecerant patres ejus.
13 Insuper et Maacham matrem suam amovit, ne esset princeps in sacris Priapi, et in luco ejus quem consecraverat: subvertitque specum ejus, et confregit simulacrum turpissimum, et combussit in torrente Cedron:
14 excelsa autem non abstulit. Verumtamen cor Asa perfectum erat cum Domino cunctis diebus suis:
15 et intulit ea qu sanctificaverat pater suus, et voverat, in domum Domini, argentum, et aurum, et vasa.
16 Bellum autem erat inter Asa, et Baasa regem Isral cunctis diebus eorum.
17 Ascendit quoque Baasa rex Isral in Judam, et dificavit Rama, ut non posset quispiam egredi vel ingredi de parte Asa regis Juda.
18 Tollens itaque Asa omne argentum et aurum quod remanserat in thesauris domus Domini, et in thesauris domus regi, et dedit illud in manus servorum suorum: et misit ad Benadad filium Tabremon filii Hezion, regem Syri, qui habitabat in Damasco, dicens:
19 Fdus est inter me et te, et inter patrem meum et patrem tuum: ideo misi tibi munera, argentum et aurum: et peto ut venias, et irritum facias fdus quod habes cum Baasa rege Isral, et recedat a me.
20 Acquiescens Benadad regi Asa, misit principes exercitus sui in civitates Isral, et percusserunt Ahion, et Dan, et Abeldomum Maacha, et universam Cenneroth, omnem scilicet terram Nephthali.
21 Quod cum audisset Baasa, intermisit dificare Rama, et reversus est in Thersa.
22 Rex autem Asa nuntium misit in omnem Judam, dicens: Nemo sit excusatus. Et tulerunt lapides de Rama, et ligna ejus, quibus dificaverat Baasa, et exstruxit de eis rex Asa Gabaa Benjamin, et Maspha.
23 Reliqua autem omnium sermonum Asa, et univers fortitudines ejus, et cuncta qu fecit, et civitates quas exstruxit, nonne hc scripta sunt in libro verborum dierum regum Juda? Verumtamen in tempore senectutis su doluit pedes.
24 Et dormivit cum patribus suis, et sepultus est cum eis in civitate David patris sui. Regnavitque Josaphat filius ejus pro eo.
25 Nadab vero filius Jeroboam regnavit super Isral anno secundo Asa regis Juda: regnavitque super Isral duobus annis.
26 Et fecit quod malum est in conspectu Domini, et ambulavit in viis patris sui, et in peccatis ejus quibus peccare fecit Isral.
27 Insidiatus est autem ei Baasa filius Ahi de domo Issachar, et percussit eum in Gebbethon, qu est urbs Philisthinorum: siquidem Nadab et omnis Isral obsidebant Gebbethon.
28 Interfecit ergo illum Baasa in anno tertio Asa regis Juda, et regnavit pro eo.
29 Cumque regnasset, percussit omnem domum Jeroboam: non dimisit ne unam quidem animam de semine ejus donec deleret eum, juxta verbum Domini quod locutus fuerat in manu servi sui Ahi Silonitis,
30 propter peccata Jeroboam, qu peccaverat, et quibus peccare fecerat Isral: et propter delictum quo irritaverat Dominum Deum Isral.
31 Reliqua autem sermonum Nadab, et omnia qu operatus est, nonne hc scripta sunt in libro verborum dierum regum Isral?
32 Fuitque bellum inter Asa, et Baasa regem Isral, cunctis diebus eorum.
33 Anno tertio Asa regis Juda, regnavit Baasa filius Ahi super omnem Isral in Thersa, viginti quatuor annis.
34 Et fecit malum coram Domino, ambulavitque in via Jeroboam, et in peccatis ejus quibus peccare fecit Isral.
