And in the twentieth year of Jeroboam king of Israel reigned Asa over Judah.
10
And forty and one years reigned he in Jerusalem. And his mother's name [was] Maachah, the daughter of Abishalom.
11
And Asa did [that which was] right in the eyes of the LORD, as [did] David his father.
12
And he banished the sodomites from the land, and removed all the idols that his fathers had made.
13
And also Maachah his mother, even her he removed from [being] queen, because she had made an idol in a grove; and Asa destroyed her idol, and burnt [it] by the brook Kidron.
