Then king Asa made a proclamation throughout all Judah; none was exempted: and they took away the stones of Ramah, and the timber thereof, wherewith Baasha had builded; and king Asa built with them Geba of Benjamin, and Mizpah.

KJV

Rex autem Asa nuntium misit in omnem Judam, dicens : Nemo sit excusatus. Et tulerunt lapides de Rama, et ligna ejus, quibus ædificaverat Baasa, et exstruxit de eis rex Asa Gabaa Benjamin, et Maspha.

Vulgate

καὶ ὁ βασιλεὺς Ἀσὰ παρήγγειλεν παντὶ Ἰούδᾳ εἰς Αἰνακείμ, καὶ αἴρουσιν τοὺς λίθους τῆς Ῥααμὰ καὶ τὰ ξύλα αὐτῆς ἃ ᾠκοδόμησεν Βαασά, καὶ ᾠκοδόμησεν ἐν αὐτοῖς ὁ βασιλεὺς Ἀσὰ πᾶν βουνὸν Βενιαμεὶν καὶ τὴν σκοπιάν.

LXX

Then king Asa made a proclamation unto all Judah; none was exempted: and they carried away the stones of Ramah, and the timber thereof, wherewith Baasha had builded; and king Asa built therewith Geba of Benjamin, and Mizpah.
