11. Now Asa did what was right in Adonai’s eyes, like his father David.
12. He also expelled the male prostitutes from the land and removed all the idols that his fathers had made.
13. Also he deposed his mother Maacah from being queen mother, because she had made an abominable image as an Asherah pole. So Asa cut down her image and burned it in the Kidron Valley.
14. But they did not take away the high places. Nevertheless Asa’s heart was wholly devoted to Adonai all his days.
15. He brought into the House of Adonai the consecrated things of his father as well as his own consecrated things of silver, gold, and utensils.
16. Now there was war between Asa and King Baasa of Israel all their days.
