161He alsoH1571 removedH5493 MaacahH4601, the motherH517 of KingH4428 AsaH609, from the position of queenH1377 motherH1377, becauseH834 she had madeH6213 an abominableH4656 imageH4656 2as 3an AsherahH842, and 4AsaH609 cutH3772 downH3772 her abominableH4656 imageH4656, crushedH1854 it, and burnedH8313 it at the brookH5158 KidronH6939.
17But the highH1116 placesH1116 were not removedH5493 from IsraelH3478; neverthelessH7534 Asa’sH609 heartH3824 was blamelessH8003 allH3605 his daysH3117.
18He broughtH935 into the houseH1004 of GodH430 the dedicatedH6944 thingsH6944 of his fatherH1 and his own dedicatedH6944 thingsH6944: silverH3701, goldH2091, and utensilsH3627.
