In the thirty and
sixth year of the
reign of
Asa
, come
up
hath
Baasha king of Israel ,
against Judah ,
and buildeth
Ramah ,
so
as
not
to permit
any
going
out
and
coming
in
to
Asa king of Judah.
In the thirty -
sixth year of Asa’s
reign, Baasha king of Israel went
up
against Judah and fortified
Ramah to prevent
anyone
from
leaving
or
entering
the
territory
of
Asa king of Judah.
And
Asa bringeth
out
silver and gold from the treasures
of the house of Jehovah,
and
of
the house
of
the king
, and sendeth
unto
Ben-Hadad king of Aram, who is
dwelling
in Damascus ,
saying,
So
Asa withdrew
the
silver and gold from the treasuries
of the house of the LORD
and
the royal
palace
, and he
sent
it
with
this
message
to
Ben-hadad king of Aram, who was
ruling
in Damascus :
`
A covenant
`is'
between me and thee
, and
between my father and thy
father ,
lo
, I have sent to
thee
silver and gold ;
go ,
break thy
covenant
with Baasha king of Israel, and
he doth
go
up
from off
me. '
“Let
there
be
a treaty
between me and you
, between my father and your
father .
See
, I have sent you
silver and gold .
Now
go and
break your
treaty
with Baasha king of Israel, so
that
he will
withdraw
from me. ”
And Ben-Hadad hearkeneth
unto
king Asa ,
and sendeth
the heads
of the forces
that
he
hath
unto
cities of Israel, and
they
smite
Ijon, and
Dan, and
Abel-Maim, and all the stores,
cities of Naphtali.
And Ben-hadad listened
to
King Asa and sent
the commanders
of his
armies
against
the cities of Israel, conquering
Ijon, Dan, Abel-maim, and all the store
cities of Naphtali.
And
it
cometh
to
pass,
at
Baasha's
hearing
, that
he ceaseth
from
building
Ramah ,
and letteth
his work rest;
When
Baasha
learned
of
this
, he stopped
fortifying
Ramah and abandoned
his work .
and
Asa
the
king hath
taken
all Judah, and they bear
away the stones of Ramah ,
and its
wood,
that
Baasha hath
built,
and he
buildeth
with them
Geba and Mizpah.
Then
King Asa
brought
all the
men
of
Judah, and they carried
away the stones of Ramah and the
timbers
Baasha had
used
for
building.
And with these
materials
he
built
up
Geba and Mizpah.
And
at that time hath
Hanani the seer come
in
unto
Asa
king of Judah ,
and saith
unto
him, `
Because of
thy
leaning
on the king of Aram ,
and thou
hast
not leaned
on Jehovah
thy
God, therefore
hath
the force
of the king of Aram escaped from thy
hand.
At that time Hanani the seer came
to
King Asa
of Judah and told
him, “
Because you
have
relied
on the king of Aram and not on the
LORD
your
God, the army
of the king of Aram has
escaped from your
hand.
Did
not the Cushim
and the
Lubim
become
a very
great
force
for
multitude,
for
chariot,
and for
horsemen? and
in
thy
leaning
on Jehovah
He gave
them into thy
hand ,
Were
not the Cushites
and Libyans
a vast
army
with
many
chariots
and horsemen? Yet
because
you
relied
on the
LORD,
He delivered
them into your
hand .
for Jehovah
--
His
eyes go
to and fro in
all the earth, to show Himself strong `for'
a
people
whose heart
`is'
perfect
towards
Him ;
thou
hast
been
foolish
concerning
this, because
--
henceforth
there
are
with
thee
wars
. '
For the
eyes of
the
LORD
roam
to and fro over
all the earth, to show Himself strong on
behalf
of
those
whose hearts
are
fully
devoted
to
Him .
You
have
acted
foolishly
in
this matter.
From
now
on
, therefore,
you
will
be
at
war
. ”
And
Asa is
angry at
the seer ,
and giveth
him
to
the
house
of
torture,
for
`
he is'
in a
rage
with
him
for
this;
and Asa oppresseth
`
some '
of the people at
that
time
.
Asa was
angry with
the seer and became
so
enraged
over
this
matter
that
he put
the
man
in prison.
And at
the
same
time
Asa oppressed
some of the people.
And
lo,
the matters
of Asa,
the first
and
the
last
, lo
, they
are written on
the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
Now
the rest
of the acts
of
Asa
, from
beginning
to
end
, are indeed
written in
the Book of the Kings of Judah and Israel.
And
Asa
is
diseased
--
in the thirty and
ninth year of his reign --
in his feet, till
his
disease
is
excessive,
and also
in his disease
he hath
not sought
Jehovah
, but among
physicians.
In the thirty -
ninth year of his reign ,
Asa
became
diseased
in his feet, and his
malady
became
increasingly
severe.
Yet
even
in his illness
he did
not seek
the
LORD
, but only
the
physicians.
And
Asa
lieth
with
his
fathers,
and
dieth
in the forty and
first year of his reign,
So
in the forty -
first year of his reign, Asa
died
and
rested
with
his
fathers.
and they
bury
him
in `one
of'
his
graves,
that he had prepared
for himself in the city of David ,
and
they cause
him to
lie
on a bed
that `one'
hath
filled
`with'
spices ,
and divers
kinds
of
mixtures,
with
perfumed
work
; and
they burn
for
him
a burning
--
very
great.
And he
was
buried
in the
tomb
that he had cut
out
for himself in the City of David .
They laid
him on a bier
that was
full
of
spices and various
blended
perfumes
; then
they made
a great fire
in
his
honor
.
