2
Asa did that which was good and right in the eyes of the LORD his God:
3
for he took away the foreign altars, and the high places, and broke down the pillars, and hewed down the Asherim,
4
and commanded Yehudah to seek the LORD, the God of their fathers, and to do the law and the mitzvah.
5
Also he took away out of all the cities of Yehudah the high places and the sun-images: and the kingdom was quiet before him.
6
He built fortified cities in Yehudah; for the land was quiet, and he had no war in those years, because the LORD had given him rest.
