7 Now the rest of the acts of Aviyam, and all that he did, are they not written in the Sefer Divrei HaYamim L'Malkhei Yehudah? And there was milchamah between Aviyam and Yarov`am.
8 And Aviyam slept with his avot; and they buried him in Ir Dovid; and Asa Bno reigned in his place.
9 And in the twentieth year of Yarov`am Melech Yisroel, Asa began to reign as Melech over Yehudah.
10 And forty and one years reigned he in Yerushalayim. And shem immo was Ma'achah Bat Avishalom.
11 And Asa did that which was yashar in the eyes of Hashem, as did Dovid Aviv.
12 And he removed kedeshim (the male and female cult prostitutes) out of HaAretz, and got rid of kol hagillulim (all the idols) that his avot had made.
13 And also Ma'achah immo, even her he deposed from being Gevirah (Queen Mother), because she had made a mifletzet (idol) to Asherah; and Asa cut down her mifletzet, and burned it in the Kidron Valley.
