亞比央做猶大王
15 尼八的兒子耶羅波安王執政第十八年，亞比央登基做猶大王， 2 他在耶路撒冷執政三年，母親是押沙龍的女兒瑪迦。
3 亞比央和他父親一樣作惡多端，沒有像他祖先大衛一樣忠於他的上帝耶和華。 4 但他的上帝耶和華因為大衛的緣故，仍然讓他兒子在耶路撒冷繼位，使耶路撒冷堅立。 5 除了赫人烏利亞事件以外，大衛一生都做耶和華視為正的事，沒有違背耶和華的任何命令。
6 羅波安和耶羅波安之間常有戰事，一直延續到亞比央王朝。 7 亞比央和耶羅波安之間也常有戰事。亞比央其他的事及其一切所作所為都記在猶大的列王史上。 8 亞比央與祖先同眠後葬在大衛城，他兒子亞撒繼位。
亞撒做猶大王
9 耶羅波安做以色列王第二十年，亞撒登基做猶大王， 10 他在耶路撒冷執政四十一年。他祖母是押沙龍的女兒瑪迦。 11 亞撒效法他祖先大衛，做耶和華視為正的事。 12 他從國中驅逐了男廟妓，清除了他祖先製造的一切神像。 13 亞撒還廢除了他祖母瑪迦的太后之位，因為她造了可憎的亞舍拉神像。亞撒把她的神像砍倒，放在汲淪溪燒掉。 14 雖然他沒有拆毀邱壇，但他一生忠於耶和華。 15 他又把他父親和他自己所獻上的金銀和器皿都帶到耶和華的殿裡。
16 亞撒和以色列王巴沙之間常有爭戰。 17 以色列王巴沙上來攻打猶大，他修築拉瑪城，企圖隔斷猶大王亞撒與外界的聯繫。 18 於是，亞撒把耶和華殿裡和王宮庫房裡剩餘的金銀交給臣僕，派他們送給大馬士革的亞蘭王，即他伯利們的兒子、希旬的孫子便·哈達，說： 19 「我們之間應立盟約，像我們的父親之間立約一樣，現在奉上金銀為禮，請你取消與以色列王巴沙立的盟約。這樣，他就會從我境內退兵。」 20 便·哈達接受了亞撒王的提議，派將領攻打以色列的城邑，攻佔了以雲、但、亞伯·伯·瑪迦、基尼烈全境和拿弗他利全境。 21 巴沙聞訊，就停止修築拉瑪，退回得撒去了。 22 亞撒王令全國的猶大人出動，將巴沙修築拉瑪城的石頭和木材搬走，用來修建便雅憫的迦巴和米斯巴。 23 亞撒其他的事蹟、功業和他興建的城邑都記在猶大的列王史上。亞撒年老的時候，患了腳疾。 24 他與祖先同眠後，葬在大衛城他的祖墳裡。他兒子約沙法繼位。
拿答做以色列王
25 亞撒做猶大王第二年，耶羅波安的兒子拿答登基做以色列王，執政兩年。 26 拿答像他父親一樣作惡多端，行耶和華視為惡的事，使以色列人陷入罪中。 27-28 亞撒做猶大王第三年，拿答率以色列軍圍攻非利士的基比頓城時，以薩迦支派亞希雅的兒子巴沙叛變，殺了拿答，篡位稱王。 29 巴沙一做王，立刻誅殺耶羅波安全家，無一倖免，應驗了耶和華藉祂僕人——示羅人亞希雅所說的話。 30 這是因為耶羅波安犯罪，並使以色列人陷入罪中，惹以色列的上帝耶和華發怒。 31 拿答其他的事及其一切所作所為都記在以色列的列王史上。 32 亞撒和以色列王巴沙執政期間，雙方常常爭戰。
巴沙做以色列王
33 猶大王亞撒執政第三年，亞希雅的兒子巴沙在得撒登基做以色列王，執政二十四年。 34 他步耶羅波安的後塵，做耶和華視為惡的事，使以色列人陷入罪中。

Abijah King of Judah(A)
15 In the eighteenth year of the reign of Jeroboam son of Nebat, Abijah[a] became king of Judah, 2 and he reigned in Jerusalem three years. His mother’s name was Maakah(B) daughter of Abishalom.[b]
3 He committed all the sins his father had done before him; his heart was not fully devoted(C) to the Lord his God, as the heart of David his forefather had been. 4 Nevertheless, for David’s sake the Lord his God gave him a lamp(D) in Jerusalem by raising up a son to succeed him and by making Jerusalem strong. 5 For David had done what was right in the eyes of the Lord and had not failed to keep(E) any of the Lord’s commands all the days of his life—except in the case of Uriah(F) the Hittite.
6 There was war(G) between Abijah[c] and Jeroboam throughout Abijah’s lifetime. 7 As for the other events of Abijah’s reign, and all he did, are they not written in the book of the annals of the kings of Judah? There was war between Abijah and Jeroboam. 8 And Abijah rested with his ancestors and was buried in the City of David. And Asa his son succeeded him as king.
Asa King of Judah(H)(I)
9 In the twentieth year of Jeroboam king of Israel, Asa became king of Judah, 10 and he reigned in Jerusalem forty-one years. His grandmother’s name was Maakah(J) daughter of Abishalom.
11 Asa did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, as his father David(K) had done. 12 He expelled the male shrine prostitutes(L) from the land and got rid of all the idols(M) his ancestors had made. 13 He even deposed his grandmother Maakah(N) from her position as queen mother,(O) because she had made a repulsive image for the worship of Asherah. Asa cut it down(P) and burned it in the Kidron Valley. 14 Although he did not remove(Q) the high places, Asa’s heart was fully committed(R) to the Lord all his life. 15 He brought into the temple of the Lord the silver and gold and the articles that he and his father had dedicated.(S)
16 There was war(T) between Asa and Baasha king of Israel throughout their reigns. 17 Baasha king of Israel went up against Judah and fortified Ramah(U) to prevent anyone from leaving or entering the territory of Asa king of Judah.
18 Asa then took all the silver and gold that was left in the treasuries of the Lord’s temple(V) and of his own palace. He entrusted it to his officials and sent(W) them to Ben-Hadad(X) son of Tabrimmon, the son of Hezion, the king of Aram, who was ruling in Damascus. 19 “Let there be a treaty(Y) between me and you,” he said, “as there was between my father and your father. See, I am sending you a gift of silver and gold. Now break your treaty with Baasha king of Israel so he will withdraw from me.”
20 Ben-Hadad agreed with King Asa and sent the commanders of his forces against the towns of Israel. He conquered(Z) Ijon, Dan, Abel Beth Maakah and all Kinnereth in addition to Naphtali. 21 When Baasha heard this, he stopped building Ramah(AA) and withdrew to Tirzah.(AB) 22 Then King Asa issued an order to all Judah—no one was exempt—and they carried away from Ramah(AC) the stones and timber Baasha had been using there. With them King Asa(AD) built up Geba(AE) in Benjamin, and also Mizpah.(AF)
23 As for all the other events of Asa’s reign, all his achievements, all he did and the cities he built, are they not written in the book of the annals of the kings of Judah? In his old age, however, his feet became diseased. 24 Then Asa rested with his ancestors and was buried with them in the city of his father David. And Jehoshaphat(AG) his son succeeded him as king.
Nadab King of Israel
25 Nadab son of Jeroboam became king of Israel in the second year of Asa king of Judah, and he reigned over Israel two years. 26 He did evil(AH) in the eyes of the Lord, following the ways of his father(AI) and committing the same sin his father had caused Israel to commit.
27 Baasha son of Ahijah from the tribe of Issachar plotted against him, and he struck him down(AJ) at Gibbethon,(AK) a Philistine town, while Nadab and all Israel were besieging it. 28 Baasha killed Nadab in the third year of Asa king of Judah and succeeded him as king.
29 As soon as he began to reign, he killed Jeroboam’s whole family.(AL) He did not leave Jeroboam anyone that breathed, but destroyed them all, according to the word of the Lord given through his servant Ahijah the Shilonite. 30 This happened because of the sins(AM) Jeroboam had committed and had caused(AN) Israel to commit, and because he aroused the anger of the Lord, the God of Israel.
31 As for the other events of Nadab’s reign, and all he did, are they not written in the book of the annals(AO) of the kings of Israel? 32 There was war(AP) between Asa and Baasha king of Israel throughout their reigns.
Baasha King of Israel
33 In the third year of Asa king of Judah, Baasha son of Ahijah became king of all Israel in Tirzah,(AQ) and he reigned twenty-four years. 34 He did evil(AR) in the eyes of the Lord, following the ways of Jeroboam and committing the same sin Jeroboam had caused Israel to commit.

King James Version
15 Now in the eighteenth year of king Jeroboam the son of Nebat reigned Abijam over Judah.
2 Three years reigned he in Jerusalem. and his mother's name was Maachah, the daughter of Abishalom.
3 And he walked in all the sins of his father, which he had done before him: and his heart was not perfect with the Lord his God, as the heart of David his father.
4 Nevertheless for David's sake did the Lord his God give him a lamp in Jerusalem, to set up his son after him, and to establish Jerusalem:
5 Because David did that which was right in the eyes of the Lord, and turned not aside from any thing that he commanded him all the days of his life, save only in the matter of Uriah the Hittite.
6 And there was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all the days of his life.
7 Now the rest of the acts of Abijam, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah? And there was war between Abijam and Jeroboam.
8 And Abijam slept with his fathers; and they buried him in the city of David: and Asa his son reigned in his stead.
9 And in the twentieth year of Jeroboam king of Israel reigned Asa over Judah.
10 And forty and one years reigned he in Jerusalem. And his mother's name was Maachah, the daughter of Abishalom.
11 And Asa did that which was right in the eyes of the Lord, as did David his father.
12 And he took away the sodomites out of the land, and removed all the idols that his fathers had made.
13 And also Maachah his mother, even her he removed from being queen, because she had made an idol in a grove; and Asa destroyed her idol, and burnt it by the brook Kidron.
14 But the high places were not removed: nevertheless Asa's heart was perfect with the Lord all his days.
15 And he brought in the things which his father had dedicated, and the things which himself had dedicated, into the house of the Lord, silver, and gold, and vessels.
16 And there was war between Asa and Baasha king of Israel all their days.
17 And Baasha king of Israel went up against Judah, and built Ramah, that he might not suffer any to go out or come in to Asa king of Judah.
18 Then Asa took all the silver and the gold that were left in the treasures of the house of the Lord, and the treasures of the king's house, and delivered them into the hand of his servants: and king Asa sent them to Benhadad, the son of Tabrimon, the son of Hezion, king of Syria, that dwelt at Damascus, saying,
19 There is a league between me and thee, and between my father and thy father: behold, I have sent unto thee a present of silver and gold; come and break thy league with Baasha king of Israel, that he may depart from me.
20 So Benhadad hearkened unto king Asa, and sent the captains of the hosts which he had against the cities of Israel, and smote Ijon, and Dan, and Abelbethmaachah, and all Cinneroth, with all the land of Naphtali.
21 And it came to pass, when Baasha heard thereof, that he left off building of Ramah, and dwelt in Tirzah.
22 Then king Asa made a proclamation throughout all Judah; none was exempted: and they took away the stones of Ramah, and the timber thereof, wherewith Baasha had builded; and king Asa built with them Geba of Benjamin, and Mizpah.
23 The rest of all the acts of Asa, 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 Judah? Nevertheless in the time of his old age he was diseased in his feet.
24 And Asa slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David his father: and Jehoshaphat his son reigned in his stead.
25 And Nadab the son of Jeroboam began to reign over Israel in the second year of Asa king of Judah, and reigned over Israel two years.
26 And he did evil in the sight of the Lord, and walked in the way of his father, and in his sin wherewith he made Israel to sin.
27 And Baasha the son of Ahijah, of the house of Issachar, conspired against him; and Baasha smote him at Gibbethon, which belonged to the Philistines; for Nadab and all Israel laid siege to Gibbethon.
28 Even in the third year of Asa king of Judah did Baasha slay him, and reigned in his stead.
29 And it came to pass, when he reigned, that he smote all the house of Jeroboam; he left not to Jeroboam any that breathed, until he had destroyed him, according unto the saying of the Lord, which he spake by his servant Ahijah the Shilonite:
30 Because of the sins of Jeroboam which he sinned, and which he made Israel sin, by his provocation wherewith he provoked the Lord God of Israel to anger.
31 Now the rest of the acts of Nadab, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
32 And there was war between Asa and Baasha king of Israel all their days.
33 In the third year of Asa king of Judah began Baasha the son of Ahijah to reign over all Israel in Tirzah, twenty and four years.
34 And he did evil in the sight of the Lord, and walked in the way of Jeroboam, and in his sin wherewith he made Israel to sin.

16 亞撒和以色列王巴沙之間常有爭戰。 17 以色列王巴沙上來攻打猶大，他修築拉瑪城，企圖隔斷猶大王亞撒與外界的聯繫。 18 於是，亞撒把耶和華殿裡和王宮庫房裡剩餘的金銀交給臣僕，派他們送給大馬士革的亞蘭王，即他伯利們的兒子、希旬的孫子便·哈達，說： 19 「我們之間應立盟約，像我們的父親之間立約一樣，現在奉上金銀為禮，請你取消與以色列王巴沙立的盟約。這樣，他就會從我境內退兵。」 20 便·哈達接受了亞撒王的提議，派將領攻打以色列的城邑，攻佔了以雲、但、亞伯·伯·瑪迦、基尼烈全境和拿弗他利全境。 21 巴沙聞訊，就停止修築拉瑪，退回得撒去了。 22 亞撒王令全國的猶大人出動，將巴沙修築拉瑪城的石頭和木材搬走，用來修建便雅憫的迦巴和米斯巴。 23 亞撒其他的事蹟、功業和他興建的城邑都記在猶大的列王史上。亞撒年老的時候，患了腳疾。 24 他與祖先同眠後，葬在大衛城他的祖墳裡。他兒子約沙法繼位。

巴沙做以色列王
33 猶大王亞撒執政第三年，亞希雅的兒子巴沙在得撒登基做以色列王，執政二十四年。 34 他步耶羅波安的後塵，做耶和華視為惡的事，使以色列人陷入罪中。
