6 There was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all their days.
7 The rest of the acts of Abijam, with all that he did, are recorded in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah. There was war between Abijam and Jeroboam.
8 Abijam rested with his ancestors; they buried him in the City of David, and his son Asa succeeded him as king.
9 In the twentieth year of Jeroboam, king of Israel, Asa, king of Judah, became king;
10 he reigned forty-one years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Maacah, daughter of Abishalom.
11 Asa did what was right in the sight of the Lord like David his father,
12 banishing the pagan priests from the land and removing all the idols his ancestors had made.
