In the sixH8337 and thirtiethH7970 yearH8141 of the reignH4438 of AsaH609 BaashaH1201 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 cameH5927 up againstH5921 Judah,H3063 and builtH1129 Ramah,H7414 to the intent that he might letH5414 noneH1115 goH3318 out or comeH935 in to AsaH609 kingH4428 of Judah.H3063
2
Then AsaH609 broughtH3318 out silverH3701 and goldH2091 out of the treasuresH214 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 and of the king'sH4428 house,H1004 and sentH7971 to BenhadadH1130 kingH4428 of Syria,H758 that dwelledH3427 at Damascus,H1834 saying,H559
3
There is a leagueH1285 betweenH996 me and you, as there was betweenH996 my fatherH25 and your father:H25 behold,H2009 I have sentH7971 you silverH3701 and gold;H2091 go,H3212 breakH6565 your leagueH1285 with BaashaH1201 kingH4428 of Israel,H3478 that he may departH5927 from me.
4
And BenhadadH1130 listenedH8085 to kingH4428 Asa,H609 and sentH7971 the captainsH8269 of his armiesH2428 againstH413 the citiesH5892 of Israel;H3478 and they smoteH5221 Ijon,H5859 and Dan,H1835 and Abelmaim,H66 and allH3605 the storeH4543 citiesH5892 of Naphtali.H5321
5
And it cameH1961 to pass, when BaashaH1201 heardH8085 it, that he leftH2308 off buildingH1129 of Ramah,H7414 and let his workH4399 cease.H7673
6
Then AsaH609 the kingH4428 tookH3947 allH3605 Judah;H3063 and they carriedH5375 away the stonesH68 of Ramah,H7414 and the timberH6086 thereof, with whichH834 BaashaH1201 was building;H1129 and he builtH1129 therewith GebaH1387 and Mizpah.H4709
7
And at that timeH6256 HananiH2607 the seerH7200 cameH935 to AsaH609 kingH4428 of Judah,H3063 and saidH559 to him, Because you have reliedH8172 onH5921 the kingH4428 of Syria,H758 and not reliedH8172 onH5921 the LORDH3068 your God,H430 thereforeH5921 H3651 is the hostH2428 of the kingH4428 of SyriaH758 escapedH4422 out of your hand.H3027
8
Were not the EthiopiansH3569 and the LubimsH3864 a hugeH7230 host,H2428 with veryH3966 manyH7235 chariotsH7393 and horsemen?H6571 yet, because you did relyH8172 onH5921 the LORD,H3068 he deliveredH5414 them into your hand.H3027
9
For the eyesH5869 of the LORDH3068 runH7751 to and froH7751 throughout the wholeH3605 earth,H776 to show himself strongH2388 in the behalfH5973 of them whose heartH3824 is perfectH8003 towardH413 him. HereinH5921 you have done foolishly:H5528 therefore from now onH6258 you shall haveH3426 wars.H4421
10
Then AsaH609 was wrothH3707 with the seer,H7200 and putH5414 him in a prisonH4115 house;H1004 for he was in a rageH2197 with him becauseH5921 of thisH2063 thing. And AsaH609 oppressedH7533 some of the peopleH5971 the sameH1931 time.H6256
11
And, behold,H2009 the actsH1697 of Asa,H609 firstH7223 and last,H314 see,H2009 they are writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of the kingsH4428 of JudahH3063 and Israel.H3478
12
And AsaH609 in the thirtyH7970 and ninthH8672 yearH8141 of his reignH4438 was diseasedH2470 in his feet,H7272 untilH5704 his diseaseH2483 was exceedingH4605 great: yetH1571 in his diseaseH2483 he soughtH1875 not to the LORD,H3068 but to the physicians.H7495
13
And AsaH609 sleptH7901 with his fathers,H1 and diedH4191 in the oneH259 and fortiethH705 yearH8141 of his reign.H4427
14
And they buriedH6912 him in his own sepulchers,H6913 whichH834 he had madeH3738 for himself in the cityH5892 of David,H1732 and laidH7901 him in the bedH4904 whichH834 was filledH4390 with sweetH1314 odorsH1314 and divers kindsH2177 of spices preparedH7543 by the apothecaries'H4842 are:H4639 and they made a veryH5704 H3966 greatH1419 burningH8316 for him.
