2 Chronicles 15:15-17

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹⁵ All Judah rejoiced over the oath; for they had sworn with all their heart, and had sought him with their whole desire, and he was found by them, and the Lord gave them rest all around.

¹⁶ King Asa even removed his mother Maacah from being queen mother because she had made an abominable image for Asherah. Asa cut down her image, crushed it, and burned it at the Wadi Kidron. ¹⁷ But the high places were not taken out of Israel. Nevertheless the heart of Asa was true all his days.
