1 Kings 15:2-10

2He reigned three years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Maacah the daughter of Abishalom.

3He walked in all the sins of his father which he had done before him; and his heart was not wholly devoted to Adonai his God, like the heart of his father David.

4Nevertheless, for David’s sake, Adonai his God gave him a lamp in Jerusalem, raising up his son after him and establishing Jerusalem.

5For David did what was right in Adonai’s eyes and did not turn aside from anything that He commanded him all the days of his life, except in the matter of Uriah the Hittite.

6As there had been war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all the days of his life,

7so there was war between Abijam and Jeroboam. The rest of the deeds of Abijam and all that he did, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?

8Then Abijam slept with his fathers so they buried him in the city of David, and his son Asa became king in his place.

9In the twentieth year of King Jeroboam of Israel, Asa began to reign over Judah.

10He reigned 41 years in Jerusalem; his mother’s name was Maacah the daughter of Abishalom.
