14:015:010 So they gathered themselves together at Jerusalem in the third
           month, in the fifteenth year of the reign of Asa.

14:015:011 And they offered unto the lord the same time, of the spoil
           which they had brought, seven hundred oxen and seven thousand
           sheep.

14:015:012 And they entered into a covenant to seek the lord God of their
           fathers with all their heart and with all their soul;

14:015:013 That whosoever would not seek the lord God of Israel should be
           put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman.

14:015:014 And they sware unto the lord with a loud voice, and with
           shouting, and with trumpets, and with cornets.

14:015:015 And all Judah rejoiced at the oath:  for they had sworn with
           all their heart, and sought him with their whole desire; and
           he was found of them:  and the lord gave them rest round about.

14:015:016 And also concerning Maachah the mother of Asa the king, he
           removed her from being queen, because she had made an idol in
           a grove:  and Asa cut down her idol, and stamped it, and burnt
           it at the brook Kidron.

14:015:017 But the high places were not taken away out of Israel: 
           nevertheless the heart of Asa was perfect all his days.

14:015:018 And he brought into the house of God the things that his
           father had dedicated, and that he himself had dedicated,
           silver, and gold, and vessels.

14:015:019 And there was no more war unto the five and thirtieth year of
           the reign of Asa.

14:016:001 In the six and thirtieth year of the reign of Asa Baasha king
           of Israel came up against Judah, and built Ramah, to the
           intent that he might let none go out or come in to Asa king of
           Judah.

14:016:002 Then Asa brought out silver and gold out of the treasures of
           the house of the lord and of the king’s house, and sent to
           Benhadad king of Syria, that dwelt at Damascus, saying,

14:016:003 There is a league between me and thee, as there was between my
           father and thy father:  behold, I have sent thee silver and
           gold; go, break thy league with Baasha king of Israel, that he
           may depart from me.

14:016:004 And Benhadad hearkened unto king Asa, and sent the captains of
           his armies against the cities of Israel; and they smote Ijon,
           and Dan, and Abelmaim, and all the store cities of Naphtali.

14:016:005 And it came to pass, when Baasha heard it, that he left off
           building of Ramah, and let his work cease.

14:016:006 Then Asa the king took all Judah; and they carried away the
           stones of Ramah, and the timber thereof, wherewith Baasha was
           building; and he built therewith Geba and Mizpah.
