8and Abijam lieth with his fathers, and they bury him in the city of David, and reign doth Asa his son in his stead.
9And in the twentieth year of Jeroboam king of Israel reigned hath Asa over Judah,
10and forty and one years he hath reigned in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother [is] Maachah daughter of Abishalom.
11And Asa doth that which [is] right in the eyes of Jehovah, like David his father,
12and removeth the whoremongers out of the land, and turneth aside all the idols that his fathers made;
13and also Maachah his mother -- he turneth her aside from being mistress, in that she made a horrible thing for a shrine, and Asa cutteth down her horrible thing, and burneth [it] by the brook Kidron;
14and the high places have not turned aside; only, the heart of Asa hath been perfect with Jehovah all his days,
