23 Everything else Asa did while he was king, including his victories and the towns he rebuilt, is written in The History of the Kings of Judah. When he got older, he had a foot disease.
24 Asa died and was buried in the tomb of his ancestors in Jerusalem. His son Jehoshaphat then became king.
25 Nadab son of Jeroboam became king of Israel in Asa's second year as king of Judah, and he ruled two years.
26 Nadab disobeyed the Lord by following the evil example of his father, who had caused the Israelites to sin.
27-28 Baasha son of Ahijah was from the tribe of Issachar, and he made plans to kill Nadab. When Nadab and his army went to attack the town of Gibbethon in Philistia, Baasha killed Nadab there. So in the third year of Asa's rule, Baasha became king of Israel.
29 The Lord's prophet Ahijah had earlier said, “Not one man or boy in Jeroboam's family will be left alive.” And, as soon as Baasha became king, he killed everyone in Jeroboam's family,
30 because Jeroboam had made the Lord God of Israel angry by sinning and causing the Israelites to sin.
