9 And in the twentieth year of Jeroboam king of Israel, Asa began to reign over Judah;
10 and he reigned forty-one years in Jerusalem; and his mother's name was Maachah, daughter of Abishalom.
11 And Asa did what was right in the sight of Jehovah, as David his father.
12 And he put away the sodomites out of the land, and removed all the idols that his father had made.
13 And also Maachah his mother he removed from being queen, because she had made an idol for the Asherah; and Asa cut down her idol, and burned it in the valley of Kidron.
