7
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 reigned in his place.
9
In the twentieth year of Jeroboam king of Israel, Asa began to reign over Judah,
10
and he reigned forty-one years in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Maacah the daughter of Abishalom.
11
And Asa did what was right in the eyes of the LORD, as David his father had done.
