2 Chronicles 16:3-5
English Standard Version
3 “There is a covenant[a] between me and you, as there was between my father and your father. Behold, I am sending to you silver and gold. Go, break your covenant with Baasha king of Israel, that he may withdraw from me.” 4 And Ben-hadad listened to King Asa and sent the commanders of his armies against the cities of Israel, and they conquered Ijon, Dan, Abel-maim, and all the (A)store cities of Naphtali. 5 And when Baasha heard of it, he stopped building Ramah and let his work cease.
