2 Chronicles 16:11-14

International Standard Version

Asa’s Illness and Death^(A)

¹¹ Now the accomplishments of Asa from first to last are written in the Book of the Kings of Judah. ¹² In the thirty-ninth year of his reign, Asa suffered from a foot disease. Even though he suffered greatly, he never sought the Lord, but instead looked to doctors. ¹³ As a result, in the forty-first year of his reign, Asa died, as had his ancestors, ¹⁴ and he was buried in his own tomb that he had prepared^[a] for himself in the City of David. He was laid out on a bier that had been filled with various spices prepared by morticians,^[b] and the mourners^[c] built a massive bonfire to honor his memory.
