← 2 Chronicles 16:3	2 Chronicles 16:4 (KJV)	2 Chronicles 16:5 →
[There is] a league between me and thee, as [there was] between my father and thy father: behold, I have sent thee silver and gold; go, break thy league with Baasha king of Israel, that he may depart from me.	And Benhadad hearkened unto king Asa, and sent the captains of his armies against the cities of Israel; and they smote Ijon, and Dan, and Abelmaim, and all the store cities of Naphtali.	And it came to pass, when Baasha heard [it], that he left off building of Ramah, and let his work cease.
