22
Then King Asa got all Judah together, making every man come; and they took away the stones and the wood with which Baasha was building Ramah, and King Asa made use of them for building Geba in the land of Benjamin, and Mizpah.
23
Now the rest of the acts of Asa, and his power, and all he did, and the towns of which he was the builder, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Judah? But when he was old he had a disease of the feet.
24
So Asa went to rest with his fathers and was put into the earth in the town of David his father: and Jehoshaphat his son became king in his place.
25
Nadab, the son of Jeroboam, became king over Israel in the second year that Asa was king of Judah; and he was king of Israel for two years.
26
He did evil in the eyes of the Lord, copying the evil ways of his father, and the sin which he did and made Israel do.
27
And Baasha, the son of Ahijah, of the family of Issachar, made a secret design against him, attacking him at Gibbethon, a town of the Philistines; for Nadab and the armies of Israel were making war on Gibbethon.
28
In the third year of the rule of Asa, king of Judah, Baasha put him to death, and became king in his place.
29
And straight away when he became king, he sent destruction on all the offspring of Jeroboam; there was not one living person of all the family of Jeroboam whom he did not put to death, so the word of the Lord, which he said by his servant Ahijah the Shilonite, came about;
30
Because of the sins which Jeroboam did and made Israel do, moving the Lord, the God of Israel, to wrath.
31
Now the rest of the acts of Nadab, and all he did, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Israel?
32
And there was war between Asa and Baasha, king of Israel, all their days.
