New American Standard Bible
Chapter 15
9
So in the twentieth year of Jeroboam the king of Israel, Asa began to reign as king of Judah.
10
He reigned for forty-one years in Jerusalem; and his mother’s name was Maacah the daughter of Abishalom.
11
Now Asa did what was right in the sight of the
Lord
, like his father David.
12
He also removed the male cult prostitutes from the land and removed all the idols which his fathers had made.
13
And even his mother Maacah, he also removed her from
the position of
queen mother, because she had made an abominable image as an Asherah; and Asa cut down her abominable image and burned
it
at the brook Kidron.
14
But the high places were not eliminated; nevertheless Asa’s heart was wholly devoted to the
Lord
all his days.
15
And he brought into the house of the
Lord
the holy gifts of his father and his own holy gifts: silver, gold, and
valuable
utensils.
16
Now there was war between Asa and Baasha king of Israel all their days.
King James Version
Chapter 15
9
And in the twentieth year of Jeroboam king of Israel reigned Asa over Judah.
10
And forty and one years reigned he in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Maachah, the daughter of Abishalom.
11
And Asa did that which was right in the eyes of the
Lord
, as did David his father.
12
And he took away the sodomites out of the land, and removed all the idols that his fathers had made.
13
And also Maachah his mother, even her he removed from being queen, because she had made an idol in a grove; and Asa destroyed her idol, and burnt it by the brook Kidron.
14
But the high places were not removed: nevertheless Asa's heart was perfect with the
Lord
all his days.
15
And he brought in the things which his father had dedicated, and the things which himself had dedicated, into the house of the
Lord
, silver, and gold, and vessels.
16
And there was war between Asa and Baasha king of Israel all their days.
