2nd Chronicles Chapter 16 - King James Strong Number Version

1
In the six <H8337> and thirtieth <H7970> year <H8141> of the reign <H4438> of Asa <H0609> Baasha <H1201> king <H4428> of Israel <H3478> came up <H5927> against Judah, <H3063> and built <H1129> Ramah, <H7414> to the intent that he might let <H5414> none <H1115> go out <H3318> or come in <H0935> to Asa <H0609> king <H4428> of Judah. <H3063>
2
Then Asa <H0609> brought out <H3318> silver <H3701> and gold <H2091> out of the treasures <H0214> of the house <H1004> of the LORD <H3068> and of the king's <H4428> house, <H1004> and sent <H7971> to Benhadad <H1130> king <H4428> of Syria, <H0758> that dwelt <H3427> at Damascus, <H1834> saying, <H0559>
3
[There is] a league <H1285> between me and thee, as [there was] between my father <H0001> and thy father: <H0001> behold, I have sent <H7971> thee silver <H3701> and gold; <H2091> go, <H3212> break <H6565> thy league <H1285> with Baasha <H1201> king <H4428> of Israel, <H3478> that he may depart <H5927> from me.
4
And Benhadad <H1130> hearkened <H8085> unto king <H4428> Asa, <H0609> and sent <H7971> the captains <H8269> of his armies <H2428> against the cities <H5892> of Israel; <H3478> and they smote <H5221> Ijon, <H5859> and Dan, <H1835> and Abelmaim, <H0066> and all the store <H4543> cities <H5892> of Naphtali. <H5321>
5
And it came to pass, when Baasha <H1201> heard <H8085> [it], that he left off <H2308> building <H1129> of Ramah, <H7414> and let his work <H4399> cease. <H7673>
6
Then Asa <H0609> the king <H4428> took <H3947> all Judah; <H3063> and they carried away <H5375> the stones <H0068> of Ramah, <H7414> and the timber <H6086> thereof, wherewith Baasha <H1201> was building; <H1129> and he built <H1129> therewith Geba <H1387> and Mizpah. <H4709>
7
And at that time <H6256> Hanani <H2607> the seer <H7200> came <H0935> to Asa <H0609> king <H4428> of Judah, <H3063> and said <H0559> unto him, Because thou hast relied <H8172> on the king <H4428> of Syria, <H0758> and not relied <H8172> on the LORD <H3068> thy God, <H0430> therefore is the host <H2428> of the king <H4428> of Syria <H0758> escaped <H4422> out of thine hand. <H3027>
8
Were not the Ethiopians <H3569> and the Lubims <H3864> a huge <H7230> host, <H2428> with very <H3966> many <H7235> chariots <H7393> and horsemen? <H6571> yet, because thou didst rely <H8172> on the LORD, <H3068> he delivered <H5414> them into thine hand. <H3027>
9
For the eyes <H5869> of the LORD <H3068> run to and fro <H7751> throughout the whole earth, <H0776> to shew himself strong <H2388> in the behalf of [them] whose heart <H3824> [is] perfect <H8003> toward him. Herein thou hast done foolishly: <H5528> therefore from henceforth <H6258> thou shalt have <H3426> wars. <H4421>
10
Then Asa <H0609> was wroth <H3707> with the seer, <H7200> and put <H5414> him in a prison <H4115> house; <H1004> for [he was] in a rage <H2197> with him because of this [thing]. And Asa <H0609> oppressed <H7533> [some] of the people <H5971> the same time. <H6256>
11
And, behold, the acts <H1697> of Asa, <H0609> first <H7223> and last, <H0314> lo, they [are] written <H3789> in the book <H5612> of the kings <H4428> of Judah <H3063> and Israel. <H3478>
12
And Asa <H0609> in the thirty <H7970> and ninth <H8672> year <H8141> of his reign <H4438> was diseased <H2456> in his feet, <H7272> until his disease <H2483> [was] exceeding <H4605> [great]: yet in his disease <H2483> he sought <H1875> not to the LORD, <H3068> but to the physicians. <H7495>
13
And Asa <H0609> slept <H7901> with his fathers, <H0001> and died <H4191> in the one <H0259> and fortieth <H0705> year <H8141> of his reign. <H4427>
14
And they buried <H6912> him in his own sepulchres, <H6913> which he had made <H3738> for himself in the city <H5892> of David, <H1732> and laid <H7901> him in the bed <H4904> which was filled <H4390> with sweet odours <H1314> and divers kinds <H2177> [of spices] prepared <H7543> by the apothecaries' <H4842> art: <H4639> and they made <H8313> a very <H3966> great <H1419> burning <H8316> for him.
