7
The rest of the acts of Abi'jam, and all that he did, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah? And there was war between Abi'jam and Jerobo'am.
8
And Abi'jam slept with his fathers; and they buried him in the city of David. And Asa his son reigned in his stead.
9
In the twentieth year of Jerobo'am king of Israel Asa began to reign over Judah,
10
and he reigned forty-one years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Ma'acah the daughter of Abish'alom.
11
And Asa did what was right in the eyes of the LORD, as David his father had done.
