21
And when Baasha heard this, he left off building of Ramah and dwelt in Tirzah.
22
Then King Asa made a proclamation throughout all Judah; no one
was exempted; and they took away the stones and timber of Ramah, with which Baasha had been building; 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 sins with which he made Israel 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 had 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 when he came into the kingdom, he smote all the house of Jeroboam; he left not a
living soul
of those of Jeroboam, until he had destroyed him, according unto the word of the LORD, which he spoke by his slave Ahijah, the Shilonite,
30
because of the sins of Jeroboam with which he sinned and with which he made Israel sin and because of his provocation with which 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?
