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