1 Kings 15:12-14
New Living Translation
12 He banished the male and female shrine prostitutes from the land and got rid of all the idols[a] his ancestors had made. 13 He even deposed his grandmother Maacah from her position as queen mother because she had made an obscene Asherah pole. He cut down her obscene pole and burned it in the Kidron Valley. 14 Although the pagan shrines were not removed, Asa’s heart remained completely faithful to the Lord throughout his life.
