strkjv@1Kings:15:5 @ Because David did that which was right in the eyes of the LORD Y@hovah#, and turned not aside from any thing that he commanded him all the days of his life , save only in the matter of Uriah the Hittite .
strkjv@1Kings:15:6 @ And there was war between Rehoboam R@chab'am# and Jeroboam all the days of his life .

strkjv@1Kings:15:19 @ There is a league between me and thee, and between my father and thy father : behold, I have sent unto thee a present of silver and gold ; come and break thy league with Baasha king of Israel , that he may depart from me.

strkjv@1Kings:15:21 @ And it came to pass, when Baasha heard thereof, that he left off building of Ramah , and dwelt in Tirzah .
strkjv@1Kings:15:22 @ Then king Asa made a proclamation throughout all Judah Y@huwdah#; 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 .
strkjv@1Kings:15:23 @ 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 dabar# of the kings of Judah Y@huwdah#? Nevertheless in the time of his old age he was diseased in his feet .

strkjv@1Kings:15:30 @ Because of the sins of Jeroboam which he sinned , and which he made Israel sin , by his provocation wherewith he provoked the LORD Y@hovah# God of Israel to anger .
