1 Kings 15:21-23
Contemporary English Version
21 When Baasha heard about it, he left Ramah and went back to Tirzah.
22 Asa ordered everyone in Judah to carry away the stones and wood Baasha had used to strengthen the town of Ramah. Then he used these same stones and wood to fortify the town of Geba in the territory of Benjamin and the town of Mizpah.
23 Everything else Asa did while he was king, including his victories and the towns he rebuilt, is written in The History of the Kings of Judah. When he got older, he had a foot disease.

1 Kings 15:21-23
New International Version
21 When Baasha heard this, he stopped building Ramah(A) and withdrew to Tirzah.(B) 22 Then King Asa issued an order to all Judah—no one was exempt—and they carried away from Ramah(C) the stones and timber Baasha had been using there. With them King Asa(D) built up Geba(E) in Benjamin, and also Mizpah.(F)
23 As for all the other events of Asa’s reign, all his achievements, all he did and the cities he built, are they not written in the book of the annals of the kings of Judah? In his old age, however, his feet became diseased.
