1And in the eighteenth year of king Jeroboam the son of Nebat began Abijam to reign over Judah.
1Now in the eighteenth year of the reign of Jeroboam, the son of Nabat, Abiam reigned over Juda.
2He reigned three years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Maachah, a daughter of Abishalom.
2He reigned three years in Jerusalem: the name of his mother was Maacha, the daughter of Abessalom.
3And he walked in all the sins of his father, which he had done before him; and his heart was not perfect with Jehovah hisGod, as the heart of David his father.
3And he walked in all the sins of his father, which he had done before him: and his heart was not perfect with the Lord his God, as was the heart of David, his father.
4But for David's sake Jehovah hisGod gave him a lamp in Jerusalem, setting up his son after him, and establishing Jerusalem;
4But for David's sake the Lord his God gave him a lamp in Jerusalem, to set up his son after him, and to establish Jerusalem:
5because David did that which was right in the sight of Jehovah, and turned not aside from anything that he commanded him all the days of his life, except in the matter of Urijah the Hittite.
5Because David had done that which was right in the eyes of the Lord, and had not turned aside from any thing that he commanded him, all the days of his life, except the matter of Urias, the Hethite.
6And there had been war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all the days of his life.
6But there was war between Roboam and Jeroboam all the time of his life.
7And the rest of the acts of Abijam, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah? And there was war between Abijam and Jeroboam.
7And the rest of the words of Abiam, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda? And there was war between Abiam and Jeroboam.
8And Abijam slept with his fathers; and they buried him in the city of David. And Asa his son reigned in his stead.
8And Abiam slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David: and Asa, his son, reigned in his stead.
9And in the twentieth year of Jeroboam king of Israel, Asa began to reign over Judah;
9So in the twentieth year of Jeroboam, king of Israel, reigned Asa, king of Juda,
10and he reigned forty-one years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Maachah, daughter of Abishalom.
10And he reigned one and forty years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Maacha, the daughter of Abessalom.
11And Asa did what was right in the sight of Jehovah, as David his father.
11And Asa did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, as did David, his father:
12And he put away the sodomites out of the land, and removed all the idols that his father had made.
12And he took away the effeminate out of the land, and removed all the filth of the idols, which his fathers had made.
13And also Maachah his mother he removed from being queen, because she had made an idol for the Asherah; and Asa cut down her idol, and burned it in the valley of Kidron.
13Moreover, he also removed his mother, Maacha, from being the princess in the sacrifices of Priapus, and in the grove which she had consecrated to him: and he destroyed her den, and broke in pieces the filthy idol, and burnt it by the torrent Cedron:
14But the high places were not removed; only, Asa's heart was perfect with Jehovah all his days.
14But the high places he did not take away. Nevertheless, the heart of Asa was perfect with the Lord all his days:
15And he brought into the house of Jehovah the things which his father had dedicated, and the things which he himself had dedicated, silver and gold and vessels.
15And he brought in the things which his father had dedicated, and he had vowed, into the house of the Lord, silver and gold, and vessels.
16And there was war between Asa and Baasha king of Israel all their days.
16And there was war between Asa, and Baasa, king of Israel, all their days.
17And Baasha king of Israel came up against Judah, and built Ramah, in order to let none go out or come in to Asa king of Judah.
17And Baasa, king of Israel, went up against Juda, and built Rama, that no man might go out or come in of the side of Asa, king of Juda.
18And Asa took all the silver and the gold that were left in the treasures of the house of Jehovah, and in the treasures of the king's house, and gave them into the hand of his servants; and king Asa sent them to Ben-Hadad, the son of Tabrimmon, the son of Hezion, king of Syria, who dwelt at Damascus, saying,
18Then Asa took all the silver and gold that remained in the treasures of the house of the Lord, and in the treasures of the king's house, and delivered it into the hands of his servants: and sent them to Benadad, son of Tabremon, the son of Hezion, king of Syria, who dwelt in Damascus, saying:
19There is a league between me and thee, [as] between my father and thy father; behold, I send thee a present of silver and gold: go, break thy league with Baasha king of Israel, that he may depart from me.
19There is a league between me and thee, and between my father and thy father: therefore I have sent thee presents of silver and gold: and I desire thee to come, and break thy league with Baasa, king of Israel, that he may depart from me.
20And Ben-Hadad hearkened to king Asa, and sent the captains of his forces against the cities of Israel, and smote Ijon, and Dan, and Abel-Beth-Maachah, and all Kinneroth, with all the land of Naphtali.
20Benadad, hearkening to king Asa, sent the captains of his army against the cities of Israel, and they smote Ahion, and Dan, and Abeldomum Maacha, and all Cenneroth; that is all the land of Nephthali.
21And it came to pass when Baasha heard of it, that he left off building Ramah, and dwelt in Tirzah.
21And when Baasa had heard this, he left off building Rama, and returned into Thersa.
22And king Asa called together all Judah: none was exempted; and they carried away the stones and the timber from Ramah, with which Baasha had been building; and king Asa built with them Geba of Benjamin, and Mizpah.
22But king Asa sent word into all Juda, saying: Let no man be excused: and they took away the stones from Rama, and the timber thereof, wherewith Baasa had been building, and with them king Asa built Gabaa of Benjamin, and Maspha.
23And the rest of all the acts of Asa, and all his might, and all that he did, and the cities that he built, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah? Only, in the time of his old age he was diseased in his feet.
23But the rest of all the acts of Asa, and all his strength, and all that he did, and the cities that he built, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Juda? But in the time of his old age he was diseased in his feet.
24And Asa slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David his father. And Jehoshaphat his son reigned in his stead.
24And he slept with his fathers, and was buried with them in the city of David, his father. And Josaphat, his son, reigned in his place.
25And Nadab the son of Jeroboam began to reign over Israel in the second year of Asa king of Judah; and he reigned over Israel two years.
25But Nadab, the son of Jeroboam, reigned over Israel the second year of Asa, king of Juda: and he reigned over Israel two years.
26And he did evil in the sight of Jehovah, and walked in the way of his father, and in his sin with which he made Israel sin.
26And he did evil in the sight of the Lord, and walked in the ways of his father, and in his sins, wherewith he made Israel to sin.
27And Baasha the son of Ahijah, of the house of Issachar, conspired against him; and Baasha smote him at Gibbethon, which [belonged] to the Philistines, when Nadab and all Israel were besieging Gibbethon.
27And Baasa, the son of Ahias, of the house of Issachar, conspired against him, and slew him in Gebbethon, which is a city of the Philistines: for Nadab and all Israel besieged Gebbethon.
28And Baasha slew him in the third year of Asa king of Judah, and reigned in his stead.
28So Baasa slew him in the third year of Asa, king of Juda, and reigned in his place.
29And it came to pass when he was king, he smote all the house of Jeroboam; he left to Jeroboam none that breathed; until he had destroyed him, according to the word of Jehovah which he spoke by his servant Ahijah the Shilonite,
29And when he was king, he cut off all the house of Jeroboam: he left not so much as one soul of his seed, till he had utterly destroyed him, according to the word of the Lord, which he had spoken in the hand of Ahias, the Silonite:
30because of the sins of Jeroboam which he sinned, and wherewith he made Israel to sin; by his provocation with which he provoked Jehovah theGod of Israel to anger.
30Because of the sin of Jeroboam, which he had sinned, and wherewith he had made Israel to sin, and for the offence wherewith he provoked the Lord, the God of Israel.
31And the rest of the acts of Nadab, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
31But the rest of the acts of Nadab, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel?
32And there was war between Asa and Baasha king of Israel all their days.
32And there was war between Asa and Baasa, the king of Israel, all their days.
