| [1]In the eighteenth yere of king Ieroboam the sonne of Nabat, raigned Abiam ouer Iuda |
[1]NOW in the eighteenth year of King Jeroboam the son of Nebat, Abijah reigned over Judah. |
| [2]Three yeres raigned he in Hierusalem: and his mothers name was Maacha, the daughter of Abisalom |
[2]He reigned for three years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Maacah, the daughter of Abed-shalom. |
| [3]And he walked in all the sinnes of his father which he had done before him, and his heart was not perfect with the Lorde his God, as the heart of Dauid his father |
[3]And he walked in all the sins of his father, which he had committed before him: and his heart was not perfect with the LORD his God, like the heart of David his father. |
| [4]Neuerthelesse, for Dauids sake did the Lorde his God geue him a lyght in Hierusalem, that he set vp his sonne after him, and stablished Hierusalem |
[4]Nevertheless for David's sake did the LORD God give him an heir in Jerusalem, to set up his son after him and to establish him in Jerusalem; |
| [5]Because Dauid did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, and turned from nothing that he commaunded him all the dayes of his lyfe, saue onely in the matter of Urias the Hethite |
[5]Because David did that which was right in the sight of the LORD his God and did not turn aside from anything that he commanded him all the days of his life, except in the matter of Uriah the Hittite. |
| [6]And there was warre betweene Rehoboam and Ieroboam, as long as he lyued |
[6]And there was war between Abijah the son of Rehoboam and Jeroboam all the days of their lives. |
| [7]The rest of the wordes that concerne Abiam, and all that he did, are they not written in the booke of the cronicles of the kinges of Iuda? And there was warre betweene Abiam & Ieroboam |
[7]Now the rest of the acts of Abijah and all that he did, behold, they are written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah. |
| [8]And Abiam slept with his fathers, & they buried him in the citie of Dauid: and Asa his sonne raigned in his steade |
[8]And Abijah slept with his fathers; and they buried him in the city of David; and Asa his son reigned in his stead |
| [9]In the twentith yere of Ieroboam king of Israel raigned Asa ouer Iuda |
[9]And in the twentieth year of Jeroboam king of Israel, Asa reigned over Judah. |
| [10]Fourtie & one yeres raigned he in Hierusalem: and his mothers name was Maacha, the daughter of Abisalom |
[10]And he reigned forty-one years in Jerusalem, and his mother's name was Maacah, the daughter of Abed-shalom. |
| [11]And Asa did [that seemed] ryght in the eyes of the Lorde, as did Dauid his father |
[11]And Asa did that which was right in the sight of the LORD, as did David his father. |
| [12]And he toke away the male stewes out of the lande, and put away all the abhominable idols that his fathers had made |
[12]And he put the Sodomites out of the land and removed all the idols that his fathers had made. |
| [13]And he put downe Maacha his mother from bearing rule, because she had made an idoll in a groue: And Asa destroyed her idoll, and burnt it by the brooke Cedron |
[13]Moreover he removed Maacah his mother from being queen, because she used to make a feast to her idol, and Asa destroyed her idol and burned it at the brook Kidron. |
| [14]But the hie places were not put downe: Neuerthelesse Asa his heart was perfect with the Lorde all his dayes |
[14]But the high places he did not remove; nevertheless Asa's heart was perfect with the LORD his God all his days. |
| [15]He brought in the holy vessels of his father, and that he had dedicate vnto the house of the Lord, golde, and siluer, and iewels |
[15]And he brought the things which his fathers had dedicated and the things which he himself had dedicated into the house of the LORD, silver and gold and vessels. |
| [16]And there was warre betweene Asa, & Baasa king of Israel all their dayes |
[16]And there was war between Asa and Baasha king of Israel all their days. |
| [17]And Baasa king of Israel went vp against Iuda, and built Rama, so that he woulde let none go out or in to Asa king of Iuda |
[17]And Baasha king of Israel went up against Judah and built Ramtha, and did not permit any to go out or come in to Asa king of Judah. |
| [18]Then Asa toke al the siluer and golde that was left in the treasures of the house of the Lorde, and the treasures of the kinges house, and deliuered them vnto the handes of his seruauntes, and king Asa sent them to Benhadad the sonne of Tabrimon the sonne of Hezion king of Syria that dwelt at Damasco, saying |
[18]Then Asa took all the silver and the gold that were left in the treasures of the house of the LORD, and the treasures of the king's house, and delivered them into the hand of his servants; and Asa king of Judah sent them to Bar-hadad, the son of Tabrimon, the son of Hezion, king of Aram, who dwelt in Damascus, saying, |
| [19]There is a bonde betweene me & thee, betweene my father and thy father: and beholde I haue sent vnto thee a present of siluer and golde, that thou come and breake the bonde that thou hast with Baasa king of Israel, that he may depart from me |
[19]There is a league between me and you and between my father and your father; behold, I have sent to you a present of silver and gold; come and break your league with Baasha king of Israel, that he may withdraw from me. |
| [20]So Benhadad hearkened vnto king Asa, & sent the captaynes of the hoastes which he had, against the cities of Israel, and smote Hion, and Dan, and Abel, Beth Maacah, and all [the region of] Ceneroth, with all the lande of Nephthali |
[20]So when Bar-hadad heard from Asa, he sent the commanders of his armies against the cities of Israel and destroyed lion and Dan and Abel-beth-maacah and all the towns that are in all the land of Naphtali. |
| [21]And when Baasa heard thereof, he left building of Rama, and dwelt in Thirza |
[21]And when Baasha heard of it, he left off building Ramtha and dwelt in Tirzah. |
| [22]Then king Asa made a proclamation throughout all Iuda, that none should be excused: And so they toke the stones of Ramah and the tymber wherewith Baasa had builded, and king Asa built with them the hill of Beniamin and Mispah |
[22]Then King Asa made a proclamation throughout all Judah; none was exempted; and they carried away the stones of Ramtha and its timber with which Baasha had built it; and King Asa built with them Geba of Benjamin, and Mizpeh. |
| [23]The remnaunt of all the wordes that concerne Asa, and all his might, and all that he did, and the cities which he builded, are they not written in the booke of the cronicles of the kinges of Iuda? Neuerthelesse, in his olde age he was diseased in his feete |
[23]The rest of the acts of Asa and all his might and all that he did and the cities which he built, behold, they are written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah. But in the time of his old age he was diseased in his feet. |
| [24]And Asa slept with his fathers, & was buried beside his fathers in the citie of Dauid his father: And Iehosaphat his sonne raigned in his steade |
[24]And Asa slept with his fathers and was buried with his fathers in the city of David his father; and Jehoshaphat his son reigned in his stead |
| [25]And Nadab the sonne of Ieroboam began to raigne vpon Israel the second yere of Asa king of Iuda, and raigned vpon Israel two yeres |
[25]And Nadab the son of Jeroboam began to reign over Israel in the second year of Asa king of Judah, and he reigned over Israel two years. |
| [26]And he did euill in ye sight of the Lord, walking in ye way of his father, & in his sinne wherewith he made Israel sinne |
[26]And he did evil in the sight of the LORD, and walked in the way of his father and in his sins wherewith he made Israel to sin. |
| [27]And Baasa the sonne of Ahia, which was of the house of Isachar, conspired against him, and Baasa smote him at Gibbethon, which is a citie of the Philistines (for Nadab and al Israel layed siege to Gibbethon |
[27]And Baasha the son of Ahijah, of the house of Issachar, conspired against him and slew him in Gath, which belonged to the Philistines; for Nadab and all Israel laid siege to Gath. |
| [28]Euen in the third yere of Asa king of Iuda, did Baasa slay him, and raigned in his steade |
[28]So Baasha slew him in the third year of Asa king of Judah, and reigned in his stead. |
| [29]And it fortuned that when he was king, he smote all the house of Ieroboam, and he left him naught that breathed, vntill he had put him cleane out, according vnto the saying of the Lorde which he spake by his seruaunt Ahia the Selonite |
[29]And when he reigned, he smote all the house of Jeroboam; he left not to Jeroboam any that breathed, until he had destroyed him, according to the saying of the LORD which he spoke by his servant Ahijah the prophet, the Shilonite; |
| [30]Because of the sinnes of Ieroboam, wherewith he sinned and made Israel sinne, when he with his prouocation angred the Lorde God of Israel |
[30]Because of the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat which he sinned and which he made Israel sin, by his great provocation with which he provoked the LORD God of Israel to anger. |
| [31]The rest of the wordes that concerne Nadab, and all that he did, are they not written in the booke of the cronicles of the kinges of Israel |
[31]Now the rest of the acts of Nadab and all that he did, behold, they are written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel. |
| [32]And there was warre betweene Asa & Baasa king of Israel all their dayes |
[32]And there was war between Baasha and Asa the king of Judah all their days. |
| [33]So in the third yere of Asa king of Iuda, began Baasa the sonne of Ahia to raigne ouer all Israel in Thirza, twentie and foure yeres |
[33]In the third year of Asa king of Judah, Baasha the son of Ahijah began to reign over all Israel in Tirzah, twenty-four years. |
| [34]And he did that which is euill in the sight of the Lorde, walking in the way of Ieroboam, and in his sinne, wherewith he made Israel to sinne |
[34]And he did evil in the sight of the LORD, and walked in the ways of Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, and in his sins wherewith he made Israel to sin |
