1 Kings 15:21-33
21And it came to pass, when BaashaH1201 heardH8085 thereof, that he left off buildingH1129 RamahH7414, and dweltH3427 in TirzahH8656. 22Then kingH4428 AsaH609 made a proclamation unto all JudahH3063; none was exempted: and they carriedH5375 awayH5375 the stonesH68 of RamahH7414, and the timber thereof, wherewith BaashaH1201 had builded; and kingH4428 AsaH609 builtH1129 therewith GebaH1387 of BenjaminH1144, and MizpahH4709.
23Now the restH3499 of all the acts of AsaH609, and all his might, and all that he did, and the citiesH5892 which he builtH1129, are they not writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of the chronicles of the kingsH4428 of JudahH3063? But in the timeH6256 of his oldH2209 age he was diseased in his feetH7272. 24And AsaH609 slept with his fathersH1, and was buriedH6912 with his fathersH1 in the cityH5892 of DavidH1732 his fatherH1; and JehoshaphatH3092 his sonH1121 reignedH4427 in his stead.
25And NadabH5070 the sonH1121 of JeroboamH3379 began to reignH4427 over IsraelH3478 in the second yearH8141 of AsaH609 kingH4428 of JudahH3063; and he reignedH4427 over IsraelH3478 twoH8147 yearsH8141. 26And he did that which was evilH7451 in the sight of Jehovah, and walked in the wayH1870 of his fatherH1, and in his sinH2398 wherewith he madeH6213 IsraelH3478 to sinH2398. 27And BaashaH1201 the sonH1121 of AhijahH281, of the houseH1004 of IssacharH3485, conspired against him; and BaashaH1201 smote him at GibbethonH1405, which belonged to the PhilistinesH6430; for NadabH5070 and all IsraelH3478 were laying siege to GibbethonH1405. 28Even in the third yearH8141 of AsaH609 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 did BaashaH1201 slay him, and reignedH4427 in his stead. 29And it came to pass that, as soon as he wasH1961 kingH4427, he smote all the houseH1004 of JeroboamH3379: he leftH7604 not to JeroboamH3379 any that breathed, until he had destroyedH8045 him; according unto the saying of Jehovah, which he spake by his servantH5650 AhijahH281 the ShiloniteH7888; 30for the sinsH2398 of JeroboamH3379 which he sinnedH2398, and wherewith he made IsraelH3478 to sinH2398, because of his provocation wherewith he provokedH3707 Jehovah, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, to angerH3707.
31Now the restH3499 of the acts of NadabH5070, and all that he did, are they not writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of the chronicles of the kingsH4428 of IsraelH3478? 32And there wasH1961 warH4421 between AsaH609 and BaashaH1201 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 all their daysH3117.
33In the third yearH8141 of AsaH609 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 began BaashaH1201 the sonH1121 of AhijahH281 to reignH4427 over all IsraelH3478 in TirzahH8656, and reignedH4427 twentyH6242 and fourH702 yearsH8141.
