1 Kings 15:11-13
New International Version
11 Asa did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, as his father David(A) had done. 12 He expelled the male shrine prostitutes(B) from the land and got rid of all the idols(C) his ancestors had made. 13 He even deposed his grandmother Maakah(D) from her position as queen mother,(E) because she had made a repulsive image for the worship of Asherah. Asa cut it down(F) and burned it in the Kidron Valley.
