New American Standard Bible
11 Now (A)Asa did what was right in the sight of the Lord, like his father David. 12 (B)He also removed the male cult prostitutes from the land and (C)removed all the idols which his fathers had made. 13 And even his mother Maacah, (D)he also removed her from the position of queen mother, because she had made an abominable image [a]as an Asherah; and Asa cut down her abominable image and (E)burned it at the brook Kidron. 14 (F)But the high places [b]were not eliminated; nevertheless (G)Asa’s heart was [c]wholly devoted to the Lord all his days.

1 Kings 15:11-14
New International Version
11 Asa did what was right in the eyes of the Lord, as his father David(A) had done. 12 He expelled the male shrine prostitutes(B) from the land and got rid of all the idols(C) his ancestors had made. 13 He even deposed his grandmother Maakah(D) from her position as queen mother,(E) because she had made a repulsive image for the worship of Asherah. Asa cut it down(F) and burned it in the Kidron Valley. 14 Although he did not remove(G) the high places, Asa’s heart was fully committed(H) to the Lord all his life.
