19 “Let there be a treaty between you and me, as there was between my father and your father. See, I have sent you a present of silver and gold. Come and break your treaty with Baasha king of Israel, so that he will withdraw from me.”
20 So Ben-Hadad heeded King Asa, and asent the captains of his armies against the cities of Israel. He attacked bIjon, cDan, dAbel Beth Maachah, and all Chinneroth, with all the land of Naphtali.  
21 Now it happened, when Baasha heard it, that he stopped building Ramah, and remained in aTirzah.  
22 aThen King Asa made a proclamation throughout all Judah; none was exempted. And they took away the stones and timber of Ramah, which Baasha had used for building; and with them King Asa built bGeba of Benjamin, and cMizpah.  
23 The rest of all the acts of Asa, all his might, all that he did, and the cities which he built, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah? But ain the time of his old age he was diseased in his feet.

1 Kings 15:21

Tirzah - Now the royal city of Israel. There he abode to defend his own kingdoms, and durst not return to oppose Asa, lest the Syrian king should make a second invasion. So Asa met with success in this ungodly course as good men sometimes meet with disappointment in a good cause and course. So there is no judging of causes by events.
