1 Abijah rested with his ancestors; they buried him in the City of David and his son Asa succeeded him as king. During his time, the land had ten years of peace.

2 Asa did what was good and right in the sight of the LORD, his God.

3 He removed the illicit altars and the high places, smashed the sacred pillars, and cut down the asherahs.

4 He told Judah to seek the LORD, the God of their ancestors, and to observe the law and the commandment.

5 He removed the high places and incense stands from all the cities of Judah, and under him the kingdom had peace.
