1 Kings 15:15 (KJV) King James Version

1 Now in the eighteenth year of king Jeroboam the son of Nebat reigned Abijam over Judah.
2 Three years reigned he in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Maachah, the daughter of Abishalom.
3 And 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 the heart of David his father.
4 Nevertheless for David’s sake did the LORD his God give him a lamp in Jerusalem, to set up his son after him, and to establish Jerusalem:
5 Because David did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD, and turned not aside from any thing that he commanded him all the days of his life, save only in the matter of Uriah the Hittite.
6 And there was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all the days of his life.
7 Now 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.
8 And Abijam slept with his fathers; and they buried him in the city of David: and Asa his son reigned in his stead.
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.
17 And Baasha king of Israel went up against Judah, and built Ramah, that he might not suffer any to go out or come in to Asa king of Judah.
18 Then Asa took all the silver and the gold that were left in the treasures of the house of the LORD, and the treasures of the king’s house, and delivered them into the hand of his servants: and king Asa sent them to Ben-hadad, the son of Tabrimon, the son of Hezion, king of Syria, that dwelt at Damascus, saying,
19 There is a league between me and thee, and between my father and thy father: behold, I have sent unto thee a present of silver and gold; come and break thy league with Baasha king of Israel, that he may depart from me.
20 So Ben- hadad hearkened unto king Asa, and sent the captains of the hosts which he had against the cities of Israel, and smote Ijon, and Dan, and Abel-beth-maachah, and all Cinneroth, with all the land of Naphtali.
21 And it came to pass, when Baasha heard thereof, that he left off building of Ramah, and dwelt in Tirzah.
22 Then king Asa made a proclamation throughout all Judah; none was exempted: and they took away the stones of Ramah, and the timber thereof, wherewith Baasha had builded; and king Asa built with them Geba of Benjamin, and Mizpah.
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 book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah? Nevertheless in the time of his old age he was diseased in his feet.
24 And 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.
25 And Nadab the son of Jeroboam began to reign over Israel in the second year of Asa king of Judah, and reigned over Israel two years.
26 And he did evil in the sight of the LORD, and walked in the way of his father, and in his sin wherewith he made Israel to sin.
27 And Baasha the son of Ahijah, of the house of Issachar, conspired against him; and Baasha smote him at Gibbethon, which belonged to the Philistines; for Nadab and all Israel laid siege to Gibbethon.
28 Even in the third year of Asa king of Judah did Baasha slay him, and reigned in his stead.
29 And it came to pass, when he reigned, that he smote all the house of Jeroboam; he left not to Jeroboam any that breathed, until he had destroyed him, according unto the saying of the LORD, which he spake by his servant Ahijah the Shilonite:
30 Because of the sins of Jeroboam which he sinned, and which he made Israel sin, by his provocation wherewith he provoked the LORD God of Israel to anger.
31 Now 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?
32 And there was war between Asa and Baasha king of Israel all their days.
33 In the third year of Asa king of Judah began Baasha the son of Ahijah to reign over all Israel in Tirzah, twenty and four years.
34 And he did evil in the sight of the LORD, and walked in the way of Jeroboam, and in his sin wherewith he made Israel to sin.

4 Nevertheless H3588 CONJ for David\'s sake H4616 L-CONJ did the LORD H3068 EDS his God H430 CMP-3MS give H5414 VQQ3MS him a lamp H5216 in Jerusalem H3389 , to set up H6965 his son H1121 CMS-3MS after H310 PREP-3MS him , and to establish H5975 Jerusalem H3389 :
5 Because H834 RPRO David H1732 did H6213 VQQ3MS that which was right H3477 in the eyes H5869 B-CMP of the LORD H3068 EDS , and turned not aside H3808 W-NPAR from any H3605 NMS thing that H834 RPRO he commanded H6680 VPQ3MS-3MS him all H3605 NMS the days H3117 CMP of his life H2416 , save only H7535 ADV in the matter H1697 of Uriah H223 the Hittite H2850 .

7 Now the rest H3499 of the acts H1697 CMP of Abijam H38 , and all H3605 W-CMS that H834 RPRO he did H6213 VQQ3MS , are they H1992 PPRO-3MP not H3808 written H3789 in H5921 PREP the book H5612 CMS of the chronicles H1697 CMP of the kings H4428 of Judah H3063 ? And there was H1961 VQQ3FS war H4421 between H996 PREP Abijam H38 and Jeroboam H3379 .
8 And Abijam H38 slept H7901 W-VQY3MS with H5973 PREP his fathers H1 ; and they buried H6912 him in the city H5892 of David H1732 MMS : and Asa H609 his son H1121 reigned H4427 in his stead H8478 .
9 And in the twentieth H6242 year H8141 of Jeroboam H3379 king H4428 NMS of Israel H3478 reigned H4427 Asa H609 over Judah H3063 .
10 And forty H705 W-MMP and one H259 years H8141 NFS reigned H4427 he in Jerusalem H3389 . And his mother H517 GFS-3MS \'s name H8034 W-CMS was Maachah H4601 , the daughter H1323 CFS of Abishalom H53 .
11 And Asa H609 did H6213 W-VQY3MS that which was right H3477 in the eyes H5869 B-CMP of the LORD H3068 EDS , as did David H1732 his father H1 .
12 And he took away H5674 W-VHI3MS the sodomites H6945 out of H4480 PREP the land H776 D-GFS , and removed H5493 W-VHY3MS all H3605 NMS the idols H1544 that H834 RPRO his fathers H1 had made H6213 VQQ3MP .
13 And also H1571 W-CONJ Maachah H4601 his mother H517 GFS-3MS , even her he removed H5493 from being queen H1377 , because H834 RPRO she had made H6213 VQQ3MS an idol H4656 in a grove H842 ; and Asa H609 destroyed H3772 her idol H4656 , and burnt H8313 it by the brook H5158 Kidron H6939 .
14 But the high places H1116 were not H3808 NADV removed H5493 VQQ3MP : nevertheless H7535 ADV Asa H609 \'s heart H3824 was H1961 VQQ3MS perfect H8003 with H5973 PREP the LORD H3068 EDS all H3605 NMS his days H3117 CMP-3MS .
15 And he brought in W-VHY3MS the things which his father H1 CMS-3MS had dedicated H6944 , and the things which himself had dedicated H6944 , into the house H1004 CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS , silver H3701 NMS , and gold H2091 , and vessels H3627 .
16 And there was H1961 VQQ3FS war H4421 between H996 PREP Asa H609 and Baasha H1201 king H4428 NMS of Israel H3478 all H3605 NMS their days H3117 .
17 And Baasha H1201 king H4428 NMS of Israel H3478 went up H5927 W-VHY3MS against H5921 PREP Judah H3063 , and built H1129 W-VQY3MS Ramah H7414 , that he might not H1115 L-NPAR suffer H5414 VQFC any to go out H3318 VQPMS or come in H935 to Asa H609 king H4428 NMS of Judah H3063 .
18 Then Asa H609 took H3947 W-VQY3MS all H3605 NMS the silver H3701 and the gold H2091 that were left H3498 in the treasures H214 of the house H1004 CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS , and the treasures H214 of the king H4428 NMS \'s house H1004 CMS , and delivered H5414 them into the hand H3027 B-CFS of his servants H5650 : and king H4428 NMS Asa H609 sent H7971 them to H413 PREP Ben H1130 - hadad , the son H1121 of Tabrimon H2886 , the son H1121 of Hezion H2383 , king H4428 NMS of Syria H758 EMS , that dwelt H3427 D-VQPMS at Damascus H1834 , saying H559 L-VQFC ,
