1 Kings 15:22

---

← 1 Kings 15:21	1 Kings 15:22 (KJV)	1 Kings 15:23 →
And it came to pass, when Baasha heard [thereof], that he left off building of Ramah, and dwelt in Tirzah.	Then king Asa made a proclamation throughout all Judah; none [was] exempted: and they took away the stones of Ramah, and the timber thereof, wherewith Baasha had builded; and king Asa built with them Geba of Benjamin, and Mizpah.	The rest of all the acts of Asa, and all his might, and all that he did, and the cities which he built, [are] they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah? Nevertheless in the time of his old age he was diseased in his feet.
