¶ The .xv. Chapter.
¶ Wicked Abi&abar; raygneth ouer Iuda, ∧ ryghtewes
Asa succedeth in hys rowme. The battell betwene
Asa ∧ Baasa. Iehosaphat succedeth Asa. Nadab succedeth
Ieroboam. Baasa kylleth Nadab.
A In the .xviij. yere of kynge note Ieroboam
the sonne of Nabat, raygned
Abi&abar; ouer Iuda. Thre yere
raygned he in Ierusalem and hys
mothers name was Maacha the daughter of
Abisalom. And he walked in all the synnes
of his father, which he had done before hym
and hys hert was not perfect with the Lord
hys God note as the hert of Dauid his father.
Neuerthelesse for Dauids sake dyd the Lord
hys God geue hym a lyght in Ierusalem,
that he sett vp &rhand; his sonne after hym, and
to stablisshe Ierusalem: because Dauid dyd
that which was ryght in the syght of þe; Lorde,
and turned from nothinge that he commaunded
hym all the dayes of hys lyfe note saue
onely in the matter of Urias the Hethite.
B And there was warre betwene Rehoboam
and Ieroboam as l&obar;ge as he lyued. The rest
of the wordes that concerne Abiam, and all
that he dyd, are they not wrytten in the boke
of the Cronicles of the kynges of Iuda? And
ther was warre betwene Abiam and Ieroboam.
And Abiam slepte with hys fathers,
and they buryed hym in the cytie of Dauid.
And Asa his sonne raygned in his steade.
noteIn the .xx. yere of Ieroboam kynge of
Israel, raygned Asa ouer Iuda .xli. yere raygned
he in Hierusalem, ∧ hys mothers name
was Maacha, the daughter of Abisalom.
And Asa dyd that semed ryght in the eyes of
the Lorde, as dyd Dauid his father. noteAnd
he toke awaye the whore kepers out of the
lande, and put awaye all the abhominable
Idols that his fathers had made.
C And he put
downe note Maacha &rhand; hys mother from berynge
rule, because she had made ymages in
groues. And Asa destroyed her ymages, and
burnt them by the broke Cedron. &rhand; But þe;
hillaulters were not put downe. Neuerthelesse
Asaes herte was perfecte with the Lord
-- --
Asa
all his dayes. He brought in the holy vessels
of his father, (∧ þt; he had dedicat) vnto þe; house
of the Lorde: golde ∧ syluer, ∧ Iewelles.
And there was warre betwene Asa ∧ Baasa
kynge of Israell all theyr dayes.
noteAnd Baasa kynge of Israel, went vp
agaynst Iuda, ∧ buylt Rama, so þt; he wolde
let none go out or in, to Asa kynge of Iuda.
D Then Asa toke all the syluer ∧ golde, that
was lefte in the treasures of the house of the
Lorde, ∧ the treasures of the kynges house,
and delyuered them vnto the handes of hys
seruauntes, ∧ Asa sent them to note Benhadad
the sonne of Tabrimon the sonne of Hezion
kynge of Siria, (that dwelt at Damasco,)
sayenge: there is a bonde betwene me ∧ the,
betwene my father and thy father. And beholde,
I haue sent vnto the a present of syluer
∧ golde þt; thou come ∧ breake the bonde þt;
thou hast &wt; Baasa kynge of Israell, that he
maye departe from me. So Benhadad herkened
vnto kyng Asa, and sent the captaynes
of the hostes (which he had) agaynst the
cyties of Israel, ∧ smote Hion, ∧ D&abar;, ∧ Abel,
Beth Macah, ∧ all the region of Ceneroth
with all the lande of Nephthali.
E And when
Baasa heard therof, he lefte buylding of Rama
∧ dwelt &ibar; Thirza. Then kyng Asa made
a proclamacy&obar; thorowout all Iuda, þt; none
shuld be excused. And so they toke the stones
of Ramah ∧ the tymber (wherwith Baasa
had buylded,) ∧ kyng Asa buylt with them
the hyll of BenIamin and Mizpa.
The remnaunt of all the wordes that concerne
Asa, and all hys myght and all that he
dyd, ∧ the cyties whych he buylded, are they
not wrytten in the boke of the chronicles of
the kynges of Iuda? Neuerthelesse in hys
olde age he was diseased in hys fete.
F And
Asa slepte wyth hys fathers, ∧ was buryed
besyde his fathers in the cytie of Dauid hys
father. And note Iehosaphat his s&obar;ne raygned
in his steade. And Nadab the sonne of Ieroboam
beganne to raygne vpon Israel the seconde
yere of Asa kynge of Iuda, and raygned
vp&obar; Israel two yere. And he dyd euell
in the syght of the Lorde, walkynge in the
waye of hys father and in hys synne wherwith
he made Israel synne. And Baasa the
sonne of Ahia (whych was of the house of
Isachar) c&obar;spired agaynst hym, and Baasa
smote him at Gibbethon which is a cytie of
the Philistines: for Nadab ∧ all Israel layed
seage to Gibbethon. Euen in the thirde yere
of Asa kynge of Iuda, dyd Baasa slaye him,
and raygned in his steade. note
G And it fortuned
that whan he was kyng, he smot all þe; house
of Ierobo&abar;, and lefte him naught that breathed,
vntyll he had put hym cleane out, accordyng
vnto the sayeng of the Lord, which
he spake by his seruaunt Ahia the Selonite:
because of the synnes of Ierobo&abar; wherwyth
he synned and made Israel synne, whan he
wyth hys prouocacyon angred the Lorde
God of Israel.
The rest of the wordes that concerne Nadab,
and all that he dyd, are they not wrytt&ebar;
in the boke of the chronicles of the kynges of
Israel? And there was warre betwene Asa
and Baasa kynge of Israel all theyr dayes.
So in the thyrde yere of Asa kynge of Iuda,
began Baasa the sonne of Ahia to raygne
ouer all Israell in Thirza .xxiiij. yeare.
And he dyd þt; which is euell in the syght of þe;
Lorde, walkynge in the waye of Ierobo&abar;, ∧
in his synne, which made Israel to synne.
