6 There was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all the days of his life.
7 The remainder of the acts of Abijam and all that he did, are they not written in the scroll of the events of the days of the kings of Judah? There was also war between Abijam and Jeroboam.
8 Abijam slept with his ancestors, and they buried him in the city of David, and Asa his son became king in his place.
9 In the twentieth year of Jeroboam the king of Israel, Asa became the king of Judah.
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.
