6 There was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all the days of his life.
7 Now the rest of the acts of Abijam and all that he did, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah? And there was war between Abijam and Jeroboam.
8 And Abijam slept with his fathers and they buried him in the city of David; and Asa his son became king in his place.
9 So in the twentieth year of Jeroboam the king of Israel, Asa began to reign as king of Judah.
10 He reigned forty-one years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Maacah the daughter of Abishalom.
11 Asa did what was right in the sight of the Lord, like David his father.
12 He also put away the male cult prostitutes from the land and removed all the idols which his fathers had made.
