^(m)Asa did what was right in the sight of the Lord , like David his father.

⁽ⁿ⁾He also put away the male cult prostitutes from the land and ^(o)removed all the idols which his fathers had made.

^[d](p)He also removed Maacah his mother from being queen mother, because she had made a horrid image ^[e]as an Asherah; and Asa cut down her horrid image and ^(q)burned it at the brook Kidron.

^(r)But the high places were not taken away; nevertheless ^(s)the heart of Asa was ^[f]wholly devoted to the Lord all his days.

^(t)He brought into the house of the Lord the dedicated things of his father and his own dedicated things: silver and gold and utensils.
