1 Kings 15:9-15

9And in the twentiethH6242 yearH8141 of JeroboamH3379 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 reignedH4427 AsaH609 over JudahH3063. 10And fortyH705 and oneH259 yearsH8141 reignedH4427 he in JerusalemH3389. And his mother’sH517 nameH8034 was MaachahH4601, the daughterH1323 of AbishalomH53.1 11And AsaH609 didH6213 that which was rightH3477 in the eyesH5869 of YhwhH3068, as did DavidH1732 his fatherH1. 12And he took awayH5674 the sodomitesH6945 out of the landH776, and removedH5493 all the idolsH1544 that his fathersH1 had madeH6213. 13And also MaachahH4601 his motherH517, even her he removedH5493 from being queenH1377, because she had madeH6213 an idolH4656 in a groveH842; and AsaH609 destroyedH3772 her idolH4656, and burntH8313 it by the brookH5158 KidronH6939.2 14But the high placesH1116 were not removedH5493: nevertheless Asa’sH609 heartH3824 was perfectH8003 with YhwhH3068 all his daysH3117. 15And he broughtH935 in the thingsH6944 which his fatherH1 had dedicatedH6944, and the things which himself had dedicatedH6944, into the houseH1004 of YhwhH3068, silverH3701, and goldH2091, and vesselsH3627.3
