2 Chronicles 16

In the 36th year of Asa's reign, Baasha king of Israel builds Ramah to blockade Judah, prompting Asa to plunder the temple and palace treasuries to bribe Ben-Hadad king of Aram (Syria) into attacking Israel, forcing Baasha to withdraw.[2][4] The prophet Hanani rebukes Asa for relying on Aram rather than YHWH, whose eyes roam the earth to strengthen the loyal-hearted; Asa imprisons Hanani, oppresses the people, and later dies of foot disease without seeking YHWH's help.[1][2][3]
