Exegesis
The conjunction ki {כִּי | kî} introduces the reason clause, led by the Piel perfect biarta {בִעַ֤רְתָּ | bi-ʿăr-tā} ‘you removed’ and its object ha-asherot {הָאֲשֵׁרוֹת | hā-ʾă-šê-rôṯ} ‘the Asherah poles’ with scope marked by min-ha-aretz {מִן־הָאָ֔רֶץ | min-hā-ʾā-reṣ}.
In context — 2 Chronicles 19:3
Yet good things have been found in you: you have removed the Asherah poles from the land, and you have set your heart to seek God .
