7Now the rest of the acts of Abijam, and all he did, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Judah? And there was war between Abijam and Jeroboam.
8Then Abijam went to rest with his fathers, and they put him into the earth in the town of David: and Asa his son became king in his place.
9In the twentieth year that Jeroboam was king of Israel, Asa became king over Judah.
10And he was king for forty-one years in Jerusalem; his mother's name was Maacah, the daughter of Abishalom.
11Asa did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, as David his father did.
12Those used for sex purposes in the worship of the gods he sent out of the country, and he took away all the images which his fathers had made.
