  • 2 Chr 16:1-6 : 1 In the thirty-sixth year of Asa's reign, Baasha, the king of Israel, came against Judah and fortified Ramah to prevent anyone from entering or leaving King Asa of Judah. 2 Asa took silver and gold from the treasuries of the house of the LORD and the king's palace and sent them to Ben-Hadad, king of Aram, who resided in Damascus, with this message: 3 'Let there be a treaty between me and you, as there was between my father and your father. I am sending you silver and gold. Now, break your treaty with Baasha, king of Israel, so that he will withdraw from me.' 4 Ben-Hadad listened to King Asa and sent the commanders of his armies against the cities of Israel. They attacked Ijon, Dan, Abel Maim, and all the storehouse cities of Naphtali. 5 When Baasha heard about it, he stopped fortifying Ramah and ceased his work. 6 Then King Asa mobilized all Judah. They carried away the stones and timber Baasha had used to fortify Ramah, and Asa used them to fortify Geba and Mizpah.
