1In the thirty-sixth year of Asa's reign, Baasha king of Israel went up against Judah and fortified Ramah to prevent anyone from leaving or entering the territory of Asa king of Judah.
“in the sixth and thirtieth year of the reign of Asa, Basha, king of Israel, came up against Judah and built Rama to the intent that he might let none go out or come in on to Asa, king of Judah.”

2So Asa withdrew the silver and gold from the treasuries of the house of the LORD and the royal palace, and he sent it with this message to Ben-hadad king of Aram, who was ruling in Damascus:
“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 Ben -Hadad, king of Syria, that dwelt at Damascus, saying,”

3"Let there be a treaty between me and you, between my father and your father. See, I have sent you silver and gold. Now go and break your treaty with Baasha king of Israel, so that he will withdraw from me."
“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 Bashar, Bashar, king of Israel, that he may depart from me.”
“Let there be a treaty between you and me, as between my father and your father. Behold, I have sent you silver and gold. Go break your treaty with Beashtah, king of Israel, so that he will withdraw from me.”
“a league between me and thee, as there was between my father and thy father. Behold, I have sent thee silver and gold. Go and break thy league with Basha, king of Israel, that he may depart from me.”
“let there be a treaty between you and me as between my father and your father. Behold, I've sent you silver and gold. Go break your treaty with Basha, king of Israel, so that he will withdraw from me.”
4And Ben-hadad listened to King Asa and sent the commanders of his armies against the cities of Israel, conquering Ijon, Dan, Abel-maim, and all the store cities of Naphtali.
“And Ben -Hadad hearkened unto the king Asa and sent the captains of his armies against the cities of Israel. And they smote I -Jon and Dan and Abel -Maim and all the store cities of Naphtali.”

“So Ben -Hadad listened to King Asa. He sent the commanders of his army against the cities of Israel, and they conquered Ajin, Dan, Abel -Mayim, and all the store cities of Naphtali.”
5When Baasha learned of this, he stopped fortifying Ramah and abandoned his work.
“And it came to pass when Bashar heard it that he left off building of Ramah and let his work cease.”
“And it came to pass when Bashar heard it that he left off building of Ramah and let his work cease.”
“And when Basha heard of it, he stopped building Ramah and he let his work cease.".”
6Then King Asa brought all the men of Judah, and they carried away the stones of Ramah and the timbers Baasha had used for building. And with these materials he built up Geba and Mizpah.
“Then Asa, the king, took all Judah and they carried away the stones of Rama and the timber thereof wherewith Basha was building. And he built therewith Geba and Mizpah.”

“Then King Asa brought all Judah, and they carried away the stones of Ramah and its timbers which were in Beashtah, which had been building, and with them he fortified Geba and Mizpah.”
7At that time Hanani the seer came to King Asa of Judah and told him, "Because you have relied on the king of Aram and not on the LORD your God, the army of the king of Aram has escaped from your hand.
“At that time, Hanani, the seer, came to Asa king of Judah and said to him, because you relied on the king of Syria and did not rely on the Lord your God, the army of the king of Syria has escaped you.”
“And at that time Hanani, the seer, came to Asa, king of Judah, and said to him, Because thou hast relied on the king of Syria and not relied on the Lord thy God, therefore, is the host of the king of Syria escaped out of thine…”

“At that time Ananias the seer came to Asa, king of Judah and said unto him, Because thou hast relied on the king of Syria and not relied on the Lord thy God, therefore the host of the king of Syria escaped out of thine hand.”
8Were not the Cushites and Libyans a vast army with many chariots and horsemen? Yet because you relied on the LORD, He delivered them into your hand.
“Were not the Ethiopians and the Lubam's a huge host with very many chariots and horsemen? Yet, because thou didst rely on the Lord, he delivered them into thine hand.”

9For the eyes of the LORD roam to and fro over all the earth, to show Himself strong on behalf of those whose hearts are fully devoted to Him. You have acted foolishly in this matter. From now on, therefore, you will be at war."
“For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth to show himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect towards him. Herein thou hast done foolishly, therefore from henceforth thou shall have wars.”

10Asa was angry with the seer and became so enraged over this matter that he put the man in prison. And at the same time Asa oppressed some of the people.
“Then Asa was angry with the seer and put him in prison, for he was enraged at him because of this. And Asa oppressed some of the people at that time.”
“10 says Asa was wroth with the seer and put him in a prison house for he was in a rage with him because of this Thing and Asa oppressed some of the people the same time.”

11Now the rest of the acts of Asa, from beginning to end, are indeed written in the Book of the Kings of Judah and Israel.
“And behold, the acts of Asa first and last, lo, they are written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.”
“the acts of Asa first and last are indeed written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.”
“Now, the Acts of Asa, from first to last, behold, they are written in the book of Kings of Judah and Israel.”
12In the thirty-ninth year of his reign, Asa became diseased in his feet, and his malady became increasingly severe. Yet even in his illness he did not seek the LORD, but only the physicians.
“In the thirty -ninth year of his reign, Asa became diseased in his feet. His disease was severe, yet even in his disease he did not seek the Lord but the physicians.”
“and Asa in the 39th year of his reign was diseased in his feet. Until his disease was exceeding great. Yet in his disease he sought not to the Lord but to the physicians.”

“And Asa slept with his fathers and died in the one and fortieth year of his reign,”
“So Asa slept with his fathers, having died in the forty -first year of his reign.”
“And Asa slept with his fathers, and died in the one and fortieth year of his reign.”
