2 Chronicles 15:16-19
16And also Maacah, the mother of Asa the king, he removed from being lady, because she had made for Asherah a horrid image; and Asa cut down her horrid image, ground it to dust and burned it at the brook Kidron. 17But the high places were not removed from Israel; only the heart of Asa was whole all his days. 18He brought into the house of Elohim the holy things of his father and his own holy things: silver and gold and vessels. 19And there was no war until year thirty-five of the reign of Asa.
9In year twenty of Jeroboam king of Israel, Asa king of Judah began to reign. 10Forty and one years he reigned in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Maacah daughter of Abishalom. 11Asa did what was right in the eyes of YHWH, like David his father. 12He drove the sacred prostitutes out of the land and removed all the idols that his fathers had made. 13And also Maacah his mother he removed from being lady, because she had made a horrid image for Asherah; and Asa cut down her horrid image and burned it at the brook Kidron. 14But the high places were not removed; only the heart of Asa was whole with YHWH all his days. 15He brought the holy things of his father and the holy things of the house of YHWH: silver and gold and vessels.
1Abijah lay down with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David; and Asa his son reigned in his place. In his days the land was quiet ten years. 2Asa did what was good and what was right in the eyes of YHWH his Elohim. 3He removed the foreign altars and the high places, broke the standing stones, and cut down the Asherahs. 4He told Judah to seek YHWH, Elohim of their fathers, and to do the law and the commandment. 5He removed from all the cities of Judah the high places and the incense altars; and the kingdom was quiet before him.
