So Abijah slept with his fathers, and they buried him in David’s city; and Asa his son reigned in his place.
In his days, the land was quiet ten years.
Asa did that which was good and right in the LORD his God’s eyes, for he took away the foreign altars and the high places, broke down the pillars, cut down the Asherah poles, and commanded Judah to seek the LORD, the God of their fathers, and to obey his law and command.
Also he took away out of all the cities of Judah the high places and the sun images; and the kingdom was quiet before him.
