2Chronicles:16:1-6
rsv@2Chronicles:16:1 @ In the thirty-sixth year of the reign of Asa, Ba'asha king of Israel went up against Judah, and built Ramah, that he might permit no one to go out or come in to Asa king of Judah.
rsv@2Chronicles:16:2 @ Then Asa took silver and gold from the treasures of the house of the LORD and the king's house, and sent them to Ben-ha'dad king of Syria, who dwelt in Damascus, saying,
rsv@2Chronicles:16:3 @ "Let there be a league between me and you, as between my father and your father; behold, I am sending to you silver and gold; go, break your league with Ba'asha king of Israel, that he may withdraw from me."
rsv@2Chronicles:16:4 @ And Ben-ha'dad hearkened to King Asa, and sent the commanders of his armies against the cities of Israel, and they conquered I'jon, Dan, A'bel-ma'im, and all the store-cities of Naph'tali.
rsv@2Chronicles:16:5 @ And when Ba'asha heard of it, he stopped building Ramah, and let his work cease.
rsv@2Chronicles:16:6 @ Then King Asa took all Judah, and they carried away the stones of Ramah and its timber, with which Ba'asha had been building, and with them he built Geba and Mizpah.
