1. So Aḇiyah slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the City of Dawiḏ. And Asa his son reigned in his place. In his days the land rested ten years.
2. And Asa did what was good and what was right in the eyes of יהוה his Elohim,
3. and removed the altars of the stranger, and the high places, and broke down the pillars and cut down the Ashĕrim,
4. and commanded Yehuḏah to seek יהוה Elohim of their fathers, and to do the Torah and the command.
5. And he removed the high places and the sun-pillars from all the cities of Yehuḏah, and the reign rested under him.
6. And he built cities of defence in Yehuḏah, since the land had rest and he had no fighting in those years, because יהוה had given him rest.
