2. Now Asa did what was good and pleasing in the sight of his God. And he overturned the altars of foreign worship, and the high places.
3. And he broke apart the statues, and he cut down the sacred groves.
4. And he instructed Judah that they should seek the Lord, the God of their fathers, and that they should carry out the law and all the commandments.
