New Testament

1 Kings 15:10-15 Modern English Version (MEV)

10. He reigned forty-one years in Jerusalem, and his grandmother’s name was Maakah, the daughter of Abishalom.

11. Asa did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, just as his father David had done.

12. He expelled the male cult prostitutes from the land and removed all the idols that his fathers had made.

13. In addition he even deposed his grandmother Maakah as queen, because she had made an idol in a grove. Asa destroyed her idol and burned it by the Kidron brook.

14. But the high places were not all removed, even though Asa’s heart was wholly devoted to the Lord all his days.

15. He brought into the house of the Lord the things that both his father and he himself had dedicated, the silver and gold and cups.
