Asa’s Last Years
16 In the thirty-sixth year of Asa’s rule, Baasha king of Israel attacked Judah. He went to the town of Ramah and made it strong. He used it to keep people from going in or out of the country of Judah.
2 Asa took silver and gold out of the treasuries of the Temple of the Lord. And he took silver and gold out of his own palace. Then he sent it with messengers to Ben-Hadad king of Aram. Ben-Hadad was living in Damascus. Asa’s message said: 3 “Let’s make an agreement between you and me. Let’s make it like the agreement between your father and mine. See, I am sending you silver and gold. Now break your agreement with Baasha king of Israel. Then he will take his army away from my country.”
4 Ben-Hadad agreed with King Asa. So Ben-Hadad sent the commanders of his armies to attack the towns of Israel. These commanders defeated the towns of Ijon, Dan and Abel Beth Maacah. They also defeated all the towns in Naphtali where treasures were stored. 5 When Baasha heard about this, he stopped building Ramah. He left his work. 6 Then King Asa called all the men of Judah together. They went to Ramah and took away the rocks and wood that Baasha had used. And they used the rocks and wood to build up Geba and Mizpah.
7 At that time Hanani the seer came to Asa king of Judah. Hanani said to him, “You depended on the king of Aram to help you. You did not depend on the Lord your God. So the king of Aram’s army escaped from you. 8 The Cushites and Libyans had a large and powerful army. They had many chariots and horsemen. But you depended on the Lord to help you. So he let you defeat them. 9 The Lord searches all the earth for people who have given themselves completely to him. He wants to make them strong. Asa, you did a foolish thing. From now on you will have wars.”
10 Asa was angry with Hanani the seer because of what he had said. Asa was so angry that he put Hanani in prison. Asa was cruel with some of the people at that same time.
11 The things Asa did as king, from the beginning to the end, are written down. They are in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel. 12 In the thirty-ninth year of his rule, Asa got a disease in his feet. His disease was very bad. But he did not ask for help from the Lord. He only asked for help from the doctors. 13 Then Asa died in the forty-first year of his rule. 14 The people buried Asa in the tomb he had made for himself in Jerusalem. They laid him on a bed. It was filled with spices and different kinds of mixed perfumes. And they made a large fire to honor Asa.

Аса просит защиты у сирийцев(A)
16 На тридцать шестом году правления Асы, царя Иудеи, Бааша, царь Исраила, выступил против Иудеи и укрепил город Раму, чтобы никто не мог ни войти во владения Асы, ни покинуть их. 2 Тогда Аса взял серебро и золото из сокровищниц храма Вечного и своего дворца и послал царю Сирии Бен-Ададу[a], который правил в Дамаске, сказав:
3 – Пусть между мной и тобой будет союз, как он был между нашими отцами. Вот, я посылаю тебе серебро и золото. Расторгни же свой союз с Баашей, царём Исраила, чтобы он отступил от меня.
4 Бен-Адад согласился с предложением царя Асы и послал своих военачальников против городов Исраила. Они захватили города Ион, Дан, Авель-Бет-Мааху[b] и все города для припасов в земле Неффалима. 5 Услышав об этом, Бааша перестал укреплять Раму и бросил работу. 6 А царь Аса привёл весь народ Иудеи, и они вынесли из города Рамы камни и дерево, которыми строил Бааша. Он укрепил ими города Геву и Мицпу.
Пророчество Ханани
7 В то время к Асе, царю Иудеи, пришёл провидец Ханани и сказал ему:
– Так как ты положился на царя Сирии, а не на Вечного, твоего Бога, войско царя Сирии спаслось от твоей руки. 8 Разве эфиопы и ливийцы не были могучим войском с огромным числом колесниц и всадников? Но когда ты положился на Вечного, Он отдал их в твои руки. 9 Ведь глаза Вечного осматривают всю землю, чтобы укреплять тех, чьи сердца всецело преданы Ему. Ты сделал глупость, и отныне у тебя постоянно будут войны.
10 Аса разгневался за это на провидца. Он был в такой ярости, что бросил его в темницу. В это же время Аса жестоко обошёлся с некоторыми людьми из народа.
Смерть Асы(B)
11 События царствования Асы, от первых до последних, записаны в «Книге царей Иудеи и Исраила». 12 На тридцать девятом году правления у Асы началась тяжёлая болезнь ног, но даже в болезни он не искал Вечного, а понадеялся на помощь лекарей. 13 Аса упокоился со своими предками, скончавшись на сорок первом году своего правления. 14 Его похоронили в могильной пещере, которую он вытесал для себя в Городе Давуда. Его положили на смертное ложе, наполненное разными благовониями, и развели в его честь огромный поминальный костёр.
2 Chronicles 16
King James Version
16 In the six and thirtieth year of the reign of Asa Baasha king of Israel came up against Judah, and built Ramah, to the intent that he might let none go out or come in to Asa king of Judah.
2 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 Benhadad king of Syria, that dwelt at Damascus, saying,
3 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 Baasha king of Israel, that he may depart from me.
4 And Benhadad hearkened unto king Asa, and sent the captains of his armies against the cities of Israel; and they smote Ijon, and Dan, and Abelmaim, and all the store cities of Naphtali.
5 And it came to pass, when Baasha heard it, that he left off building of Ramah, and let his work cease.
6 Then Asa the king took all Judah; and they carried away the stones of Ramah, and the timber thereof, wherewith Baasha was building; and he built therewith Geba and Mizpah.
7 And at that time Hanani 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 is the host of the king of Syria escaped out of thine hand.
8 Were not the Ethiopians and the Lubims a huge host, with very many chariots and horsemen? yet, because thou didst rely on the Lord, he delivered them into thine hand.
9 For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to shew himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him. Herein thou hast done foolishly: therefore from henceforth thou shalt have wars.
10 Then 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.
11 And, behold, the acts of Asa, first and last, lo, they are written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
12 And Asa in the thirty and ninth 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.
13 And Asa slept with his fathers, and died in the one and fortieth year of his reign.
14 And they buried him in his own sepulchres, which he had made for himself in the city of David, and laid him in the bed which was filled with sweet odours and divers kinds of spices prepared by the apothecaries' art: and they made a very great burning for him.
