2 Chronicles 15:16-18

Evangelical Heritage Version

(1 Kings 15:13-15)

¹⁶ Asa even removed his grandmother Ma’akah from her position as queen mother, because she had made an obscene image for Asherah. Asa cut down her image and crushed it and burned it in the Kidron Valley.

¹⁷ The high places, however, were not removed from Israel. Nevertheless, Asa’s heart was completely committed throughout all his days. ¹⁸ He brought silver and gold and vessels and utensils to the House of the Lord as dedicated offerings for himself and his father.
