19 Let there be a league between me and you, as was between my father and your father. Behold, I am sending you a present of silver and gold; go, break your league with Baasha king of Israel, that he may withdraw from me.
20 So Ben-hadad hearkened to king Asa and sent the commanders of his armies against the cities of Israel, and smote Ijon, Dan, Abel-beth-maacah, and all Chinneroth, with all the land of Naphtali.
21 When Baasha heard of it, he quit building up Ramah and dwelt in Tirzah.
22 Then King Asa made a proclamation to all Judah–none was exempted. They carried away the stones of Ramah and its timber with which Baasha had been building. And King Asa built up with them Geba of Benjamin, and also Mizpah.
23 The rest of all the acts of Asa, all his might, all that he did, and the cities which he built, are they not 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 Asa slept with his fathers and was buried with them in the city of David his father. Jehoshaphat his son reigned in his stead.
25 Nadab son of Jeroboam began to reign over Israel in the second year of Asa king of Judah, and reigned two years.
