ગુજરાતી1 રાજાઓ ૧૫:૧૩
તેણે તેની દાદી માકાને પણ રાજમાતાના પદ પરથી દૂર કરી, કેમ કે તેણે અશેરા દેવીની પૂજા માટે એક ધિક્કારપાત્ર મૂર્તિ બનાવી હતી. આસાએ એ મૂર્તિને તોડી નાખી અને કિદ્રોનની ખીણમાં બાળી મૂકી.
हिन्दी1 राजाओं १५:१३
वरन् उसकी माता माका जिसने अशेरा के लिये एक घिनौनी मूरत बनाई थी उसको उसने राजमाता के पद से उतार दिया, और आसा ने उसकी मूरत को काट डाला और किद्रोन के नाले में फूँक दिया।

In context

11Asa did that which was right in the LORD’s eyes, as David his father did.

12He put away the sodomites out of the land, and removed all the idols that his fathers had made.

13He also removed Maacah his mother from being queen, because she had made an abominable image for an Asherah. Asa cut down her image and burned it at the brook Kidron.

14But the high places were not taken away. Nevertheless the heart of Asa was perfect with the LORD all his days.

15He brought into the LORD’s house the things that his father had dedicated, and the things that he himself had dedicated: silver, gold, and utensils.
