10 He reigned forty-one years in Jerusalem, and the name of his mother was Maacah the daughter of Abishalom.
11 Asa did right in the eyes of Yahweh, like David his ancestor.
12 He put away the male shrine prostitutes from the land, and he removed all of the idols that his ancestors made.
13 Also, he had Maacah his mother removed from the office of queen mother, as she had made a repulsive image for the Asherah. Asa also cut down her repulsive image and burned it in the Wadi Kidron.
14 But the high places he did not remove. Nevertheless, the heart of Asa was completely with Yahweh all of his days.
15 He brought the holy objects of his father and his own holy objects to the house of Yahweh, silver and gold and utensils.
16 There was war between Asa and Baasha king of Israel all of their days.
