1Now in the eighteenth year of king Yarov’am [the people will contend] the son of N’vat [aspect] reigned Aviyam [Yah is my father] over Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised]. 2Three years reigned he in Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace]. And his mother's name [was] Ma’akhah [oppression], the daughter of Avishalom [my father is peace]. 3And he walked in all the sins of his father, which he had done before him: and his heart was not perfect with the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) his God-Elohim (The Living Word) [The Many Powered], as the heart of David [beloved] his father. 4Nevertheless for David’s [beloved]’s sake did the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) his God-Elohim (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] give him a lamp in Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace], to set up his son after him, and to establish Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace]: 5Because David [beloved] did [that which was] right in the eyes of the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), and turned not aside from any [thing] that he commanded him all the days of his life, save only in the matter of Uriyah [Yehovah is my light (flame)] the Hitti [Terrorists]. 6And there was war between Rechav’am [a people has enlarged] and Yarov’am [the people will contend] all the days of his life.

7Now the rest of the acts of Aviyam [Yah is my father], and all that he did, [are] they not written in the book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised]? And there was war between Aviyam [Yah is my father] and Yarov’am [the people will contend].

8And Aviyam [Yah is my father] slept with his fathers; and they buried him in the city of David [beloved]: and Asa [healer; injurious?] his son reigned in his stead.

9And in the twentieth year of Yarov’am [the people will contend] king of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] reigned Asa [healer; injurious?] over Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised]. 10And forty and one years reigned he in Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace]. And his mother's name [was] Ma’akhah [oppression], the daughter of Avishalom [my father is peace]. 11And Asa [healer; injurious?] did [that which was] right in the eyes of the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), as [did] David [beloved] his father. 12And he took away the sodomites out of the land, and removed all the idols that his fathers had made. 13And also Ma’akhah [oppression] his mother, even her he removed from [being] queen, because she had made an idol in a grove; and Asa [healer; injurious?] destroyed her idol, and burnt [it] by the brook Kidron [dark]. 14But the high places were not removed: nevertheless Asa’s [healer; injurious?] heart was perfect with the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) all his days. 15And he brought in the things which his father had dedicated, and the things which himself had dedicated, into the house of the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), silver, and gold, and vessels.

16And there was war between Asa [healer; injurious?] and Ba’sha [wicked] king of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] all their days. 17And Ba’sha [wicked] king of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] went up against Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised], and built Ramah [Hill], that he might not suffer any to go out or come in to Asa [healer; injurious?] king of Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised]. 18Then Asa [healer; injurious?] took all the silver and the gold [that were] left in the treasures of the house of the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), and the treasures of the king's house, and delivered them into the hand of his servants: and king Asa [healer; injurious?] sent them to Ben-Hadad [son of the (false god) Hadad], the son of Tavirmmon [good is pomegranate], the son of Hezyon [vision], king of Aram (Syria) [exalted], that dwelt at Dammesek (Damascus) [silent is the sackcloth weaver], saying, 19[There is] a league between me and youⁱ, [and] between my father and yourⁱ father: behold, I have sent unto youⁱ a present of silver and gold; come and break yourⁱ league with Ba’sha [wicked] king of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God], that he may depart from me. 20So Ben-Hadad [son of the (false god) Hadad] listened unto king Asa [healer; injurious?], and sent the captains of the hosts which he had against the cities of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God], and struck ‘Iyon [a ruin], and Dan [Judge], and Avel-Beit-Ma’akhah [meadow of the house of oppression], and all Kinn’rot [harps], with all the land of Naftali [My Wrestling]. 21And it came to pass, when Ba’sha [wicked] heard [thereof], that he left off building of Ramah [Hill], and dwelt in Tirtzah [Favourable]. 22Then king Asa [healer; injurious?] made a proclamation throughout all Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised]; none [was] exempted: and they took away the stones of Ramah [Hill], and the timber thereof, which Ba’sha [wicked] had built; and king Asa [healer; injurious?] built with them Geva [hill] of Binyamin [Son of the Right Hand/Strength], and Mitzpah [watchtower].

23The rest of all the acts of Asa [healer; injurious?], and all his might, and all that he did, and the cities which he built, [are] they not written in the book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised]? Nevertheless in the time of his old age he was diseased in his feet. 24And Asa [healer; injurious?] slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David [beloved] his father: and Y’hoshafat [Yehovah has judged] his son reigned in his stead.

25And Nadav [Generous] the son of Yarov’am [the people will contend] began to reign over Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] in the second year of Asa [healer; injurious?] king of Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised], and reigned over Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] two years. 26And he did evil in the sight of the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), and walked in the way of his father, and in his sin which he made Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] to sin. 27And Ba’sha [wicked] the son of Achiyah [brother of Yehovah], of the house of Yissakhar [There Is Recompense], conspired against him; and Ba’sha [wicked] struck him at Gib’ton [mound], which [belonged] to the P’lishtim [Immigrants]; for Nadav [Generous] and all Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] laid siege to Gib’ton [mound].

28Even in the third year of Asa [healer; injurious?] king of Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised] did Ba’sha [wicked] slay him, and reigned in his stead. 29And it came to pass, when he reigned, [that] he struck all the house of Yarov’am [the people will contend]; he left not to Yarov’am [the people will contend] any that breathed, until he had destroyed him, according unto the saying of the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), which he spoke by his servant Achiyah [brother of Yehovah] the Shiloni [peace bringer] [place of rest]: 30Because of the sins of Yarov’am [the people will contend] which he sinned, and which he made Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] sin, by his provocation which he provoked the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) God-Elohim (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] to anger.

31Now the rest of the acts of Nadav [Generous], and all that he did, [are] they not written in the book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God]?

32And there was war between Asa [healer; injurious?] and Ba’sha [wicked] king of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] all their days.

33In the third year of Asa [healer; injurious?] king of Y’hudah [Let Him (God) Be Praised] began Ba’sha [wicked] the son of Achiyah [brother of Yehovah] to reign over all Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] in Tirtzah [Favourable], twenty and four years. 34And he did evil in the sight of the LORD-Yehovah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), and walked in the way of Yarov’am [the people will contend], and in his sin which he made Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God] to sin.
