2 Chronicles 16:11-14
New American Standard Bible
11 (A)Now, the acts of Asa from the first to the last, behold, they are written in the Book of the Kings of Judah and Israel. 12 In the thirty-ninth year of his reign Asa became diseased in his feet. His disease was severe, yet even in his disease he (B)did not seek the Lord, but the physicians. 13 So Asa [a]lay down with his fathers, and died in the forty-first year of his reign. 14 They buried him in his own tomb which he had cut out for himself in the city of David, and they laid him in the resting place which he had filled (C)with spices of various kinds blended by the perfumers’ art; and (D)they made a very great fire for him.

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.
