him a lamp in Yahrushalayim, to set up his son after him,
and to establish Yahrushalayim:
5 Because Dawid did that which was right in the eyes of
vuvh, and turned not aside from anything that He
commanded him all the days of his chayim, except only
in the matter of Uriyah the Hittite.
6 And there was war between Rechavam and Yahravam
all the days of his chayim.
7 Now the rest of the acts of Aviyam, and all that he did,
are they not written in the Scroll of Divre HaYamim
about the melechim of Yahudah? And there was war
between Aviyam and Yahravam. 934
8 And Aviyam slept with his ahvot; and they buried him
in the city of Dawid: and Asa his son reigned in his place.
9 And in the twentieth year of Yahravam melech of
Yisrael, Asa reigned over Yahudah.
10 And forty-one years he reigned in Yahrushalayim.
And his eema's name was Maachah, the daughter of
Avishalom.
11 And Asa did that which was right in the eyes of vuvh,
as did Dawid his abba.
12 And he took away the Sodomites out of the land, and
removed all the idols that his ahvot had made.
13 And also Maachah his eema, even her he removed
from being malqa, because she had made an idol in a
grove; and Asa destroyed her idol, and burned it by the
brook Kidron.
14 But the high places were not removed: nevertheless
Asa's lev was perfect with vuvh all his days.
15 And he brought in the things that his abba had
dedicated, and the things which he himself had dedicated,
into the Bayit of vuvh, silver, and gold, and vessels.
16 And there was war between Asa and Ba-Asha melech
of Yisrael all their days. 935
17 And Ba-Asha melech of Yisrael went up against
Yahudah, and rebuilt Ramah, that he might not allow any
to go out, or come in to Asa melech of Yahudah.
18 Then Asa took all the silver and the gold that were left
in the treasures of the Bayit of vuvh, and the treasures of
the melech's bayit, and delivered them into the hand of his
avadim: and melech Asa sent them to Ben-Hadad, the son
of Tavrimon, the son of Hetzion, melech of Aram, that
dwelt at Dameshek, saying,
19 There is a brit between me and you, and between my
abba and your abba: see, I have sent to you a present of
silver and gold; come and break your brit with Ba-Asha
melech of Yisrael, that he may depart from me.
20 So Ben-Hadad listened to melech Asa, and sent the
captains of the armies which he had against the cities of
Yisrael, and smote Iyon, and Dan, and Avel-Beth-
Maachah, and all Cinneroth, with all the land of Naphtali.
21 And it came to pass, when Ba-Asha heard of it, that he
stopped the rebuilding of Ramah, and dwelt in Tirtzah.
22 Then melech Asa made a proclamation throughout all
Yahudah; none was exempted: and they took away the
stones of Ramah, and the timber, with which Ba-Asha
had built; and melech Asa rebuilt with them Geva of
Benyamin, and Mitzpah.
23 The rest of all the acts of Asa, and all his might, and
all that he did, and the cities which he built, are they not
written in the Scroll of Divre HaYamim about the
melechim of Yahudah? Nevertheless in the time of his old
age he was diseased in his feet.

24 And Asa slept with his ahvot, and was buried with his
ahvot in the city of Dawid his abba, and Yahushaphat his
son reigned in his place.
25 And Nadav the son of Yahravam began to reign over
Yisrael in the second year of Asa melech of Yahudah, and
reigned over Yisrael two years.
26 And he did evil in the sight of vuvh, and had his
halacha in the halacha of his abba, and in his sin that he
made Yisrael to sin.
27 And Ba-Asha the son of Achiyah, of the bayit of
Yissachar, conspired against him; and Ba-Asha smote
him at Givethon, which belonged to the Plishtim; for
Nadav and kol Yisrael laid siege to Givethon.
28 Even in the third year of Asa melech of Yahudah did
Ba-Asha kill him, and reigned in his place.
29 And it came to pass, when he reigned, that he smote all
of Beit Yahravam; he left not to Yahravam any offspring
that breathed, until he had destroyed him, according to the
saying of vuvh, which He spoke by His eved Achiyah the
Shilonite:
30 Because of the sins of Yahravam which he sinned, and
which he made Yisrael sin, by his provocation by which
he provoked vuvh Elohim of Yisrael to anger.
31 Now the rest of the acts of Nadav, and all that he did,
are they not written in the Scroll of the Divre HaYamim
about the melechim of Yisrael?
32 And there was war between Asa and Ba-Asha melech
of Yisrael all their days. 936
33 In the third year of Asa melech of Yahudah began Ba-
Asha the son of Achiyah to reign over kol Yisrael in
Tirtzah, twenty-four years.
34 And he did evil in the sight of vuvh, and had his
halacha in the halacha of Yahravam, and in his sin by
which he made Yisrael to sin.
16
Then the word of vuvh came to Yahu the son of
Hanani against Ba-Asha, saying,
2 Forasmuch as I exalted you out of the dust, and made
you sar over My people Yisrael; and you have had your
halacha in the way of Yahravam, and have made My
people Yisrael to sin, to provoke Me to anger with their
sins;
3 See, I will take away the posterity of Ba-Asha, and the
posterity of his bayit; and will make your bayit like the
bayit of Yahravam the son of Nevat.
4 Him that dies of Ba-Asha in the city shall the dogs eat;
and him that dies of Ba-Asha in the fields shall the fowls
of the air eat.
5 Now the rest of the acts of Ba-Asha, and what he did,
and his might, are they not written in the Scroll of the
Divre HaYamim about the melechim of Yisrael?
6 So Ba-Asha slept with his ahvot, and was buried in
Tirtzah: and Elah his son reigned in his place.
7 And also by the hand of the navi Yahu the son of
Hanani came the word of vuvh against Ba-Asha, and
against his bayit, even for all the evil that he did in the
sight of vuvh, in provoking Him to anger with the work of
his hands, in being like Beit Yahravam; and because he
killed him.
8 In the twenty-sixth year of Asa melech of Yahudah
began Elah the son of Ba-Asha to reign over Yisrael in
Tirtzah, two years.
