2 Chronicles 11:5--12:16

And Rehoboam
<07346>

dwelt
<03427> (8799)

in Jerusalem
<03389>_,

and built
<01129> (8799)

cities
<05892>

for defence
<04692>

in Judah
<03063>_.

He built
<01129> (8799)

even Bethlehem
<01035>_,

and Etam
<05862>_,

and Tekoa
<08620>_,

And Bethzur
<01049>_,

and Shoco
<07755>_,

and Adullam
<05725>_,

And Gath
<01661>_,

and Mareshah
<04762>_,

and Ziph
<02128>_,

And Adoraim
<0115>_,

and Lachish
<03923>_,

and Azekah
<05825>_,

And Zorah
<06881>_,

and Aijalon
<0357>_,

and Hebron
<02275>_,

which [are] in Judah
<03063>

and in Benjamin
<01144>

fenced
<04694>

cities
<05892>_.

And he fortified
<02388> (8762)

the strong holds
<04694>_,

and put
<05414> (8799)

captains
<05057>

in them, and store
<0214>

of victual
<03978>_,

and of oil
<08081>

and wine
<03196>_.

And in every several city
<05892>

[he put] shields
<06793>

and spears
<07420>_,

and made them exceeding
<07235> (8687) <03966>

strong
<02388> (8762)_,

having Judah
<03063>

and Benjamin
<01144>

on his side.

And the priests
<03548>

and the Levites
<03881>

that [were] in all Israel
<03478>

resorted
<03320> (8694)

to him out of all their coasts
<01366>_.

{resorted...: Heb. presented themselves to him}

For the Levites
<03881>

left
<05800> (8804)

their suburbs
<04054>

and their possession
<0272>_,

and came
<03212> (8799)

to Judah
<03063>

and Jerusalem
<03389>_:

for Jeroboam
<03379>

and his sons
<01121>

had cast them off
<02186> (8689)

from executing the priest's office
<03547> (8763)

unto the LORD
<03068>_:

And he ordained
<05975> (8686)

him priests
<03548>

for the high places
<01116>_,

and for the devils
<08163>_,

and for the calves
<05695>

which he had made
<06213> (8804)_.

And after
<0310>

them out of all the tribes
<07626>

of Israel
<03478>

such as set
<05414> (8802)

their hearts
<03824>

to seek
<01245> (8763)

the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>

came
<0935> (8804)

to Jerusalem
<03389>_,

to sacrifice
<02076> (8800)

unto the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of their fathers
<01>_.

So they strengthened
<02388> (8762)

the kingdom
<04438>

of Judah
<03063>_,

and made Rehoboam
<07346>

the son
<01121>

of Solomon
<08010>

strong
<0553> (8762)_,

three
<07969>

years
<08141>_:

for three
<07969>

years
<08141>

they walked
<01980> (8804)

in the way
<01870>

of David
<01732>

and Solomon
<08010>_.

And Rehoboam
<07346>

took
<03947> (8799)

him Mahalath
<04258>

the daughter
<01323> (8675) <01121>

of Jerimoth
<03406>

the son
<01121>

of David
<01732>

to wife
<0802>_,

[and] Abihail
<032>

the daughter
<01323>

of Eliab
<0446>

the son
<01121>

of Jesse
<03448>_;

Which bare
<03205> (8799)

him children
<01121>_;

Jeush
<03266>_,

and Shamariah
<08114>_,

and Zaham
<02093>_.

And after
<0310>

her he took
<03947> (8804)

Maachah
<04601>

the daughter
<01323>

of Absalom
<053>_;

which bare
<03205> (8799)

him Abijah
<029>_,

and Attai
<06262>_,

and Ziza
<02124>_,

and Shelomith
<08019>_.

{Maachah: she is also called Michaiah the daughter of Uriel}

And Rehoboam
<07346>

loved
<0157> (8799)

Maachah
<04601>

the daughter
<01323>

of Absalom
<053>

above all his wives
<0802>

and his concubines
<06370>_:

(for he took
<05375> (8804)

eighteen
<08083> <06240>

wives
<0802>_,

and threescore
<08346>

concubines
<06370>_;

and begat
<03205> (8686)

twenty
<06242>

and eight
<08083>

sons
<01121>_,

and threescore
<08346>

daughters
<01323>.)

And Rehoboam
<07346>

made
<05975> (8686)

Abijah
<029>

the son
<01121>

of Maachah
<04601>

the chief
<07218>_,

[to be] ruler
<05057>

among his brethren
<0251>_:

for [he thought] to make him king
<04427> (8687)_.

And he dealt wisely
<0995> (8799)_,

and dispersed
<06555> (8799)

of all his children
<01121>

throughout all the countries
<0776>

of Judah
<03063>

and Benjamin
<01144>_,

unto every fenced
<04694>

city
<05892>_:

and he gave
<05414> (8799)

them victual
<04202>

in abundance
<07230>_.

And he desired
<07592> (8799)

many
<01995>

wives
<0802>_.

{many wives: Heb. a multitude of wives}

And it came to pass, when Rehoboam
<07346>

had established
<03559> (8687)

the kingdom
<04438>_,

and had strengthened
<02393>

himself, he forsook
<05800> (8804)

the law
<08451>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

and all Israel
<03478>

with him.

And it came to pass, [that] in the fifth
<02549>

year
<08141>

of king
<04428>

Rehoboam
<07346>

Shishak
<07895>

king
<04428>

of Egypt
<04714>

came up
<05927> (8804)

against Jerusalem
<03389>_,

because they had transgressed
<04603> (8804)

against the LORD
<03068>_,

With twelve hundred
<03967> <0505>

chariots
<07393>_,

and threescore
<08346>

thousand
<0505>

horsemen
<06571>_:

and the people
<05971>

[were] without number
<04557>

that came
<0935> (8804)

with him out of Egypt
<04714>_;

the Lubims
<03864>_,

the Sukkiims
<05525>_,

and the Ethiopians
<03569>_.

And he took
<03920> (8799)

the fenced
<04694>

cities
<05892>

which [pertained] to Judah
<03063>_,

and came
<0935> (8799)

to Jerusalem
<03389>_.

Then came
<0935> (8804)

Shemaiah
<08098>

the prophet
<05030>

to Rehoboam
<07346>_,

and [to] the princes
<08269>

of Judah
<03063>_,

that were gathered together
<0622> (8738)

to Jerusalem
<03389>

because
<06440>

of Shishak
<07895>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto them, Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

Ye have forsaken
<05800> (8804)

me, and therefore have I also
<0637>

left
<05800> (8804)

you in the hand
<03027>

of Shishak
<07895>_.

Whereupon the princes
<08269>

of Israel
<03478>

and the king
<04428>

humbled
<03665> (8735)

themselves; and they said
<0559> (8799)_,

The LORD
<03068>

[is] righteous
<06662>_.

And when the LORD
<03068>

saw
<07200> (8800)

that they humbled
<03665> (8738)

themselves, the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>

came to Shemaiah
<08098>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

They have humbled
<03665> (8738)

themselves; [therefore] I will not destroy
<07843> (8686)

them, but I will grant
<05414> (8804)

them some
<04592>

deliverance
<06413>_;

and my wrath
<02534>

shall not be poured out
<05413> (8799)

upon Jerusalem
<03389>

by the hand
<03027>

of Shishak
<07895>_.

{some: or, a little while}

Nevertheless they shall be his servants
<05650>_;

that they may know
<03045> (8799)

my service
<05656>_,

and the service
<05656>

of the kingdoms
<04467>

of the countries
<0776>_.

So Shishak
<07895>

king
<04428>

of Egypt
<04714>

came up
<05927> (8799)

against Jerusalem
<03389>_,

and took away
<03947> (8799)

the treasures
<0214>

of the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

and the treasures
<0214>

of the king's
<04428>

house
<01004>_;

he took
<03947> (8804)

all: he carried away
<03947> (8799)

also the shields
<04043>

of gold
<02091>

which Solomon
<08010>

had made
<06213> (8804)_.

Instead of which king
<04428>

Rehoboam
<07346>

made
<06213> (8799)

shields
<04043>

of brass
<05178>_,

and committed
<06485> (8689)

[them] to the hands
<03027>

of the chief
<08269>

of the guard
<07323> (8801)_,

that kept
<08104> (8802)

the entrance
<06607>

of the king's
<04428>

house
<01004>_.

And when
<01767>

the king
<04428>

entered
<0935> (8800)

into the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

the guard
<07323> (8801)

came
<0935> (8804)

and fetched
<05375> (8804)

them, and brought them again
<07725> (8689)

into the guard
<07323> (8801)

chamber
<08372>_.

And when he humbled
<03665> (8736)

himself, the wrath
<0639>

of the LORD
<03068>

turned
<07725> (8804)

from him, that he would not destroy
<07843> (8687)

[him] altogether
<03617>_:

and also in Judah
<03063>

things
<01697>

went well
<02896>_.

{and also...: or, and yet in Judah there were good things}

So king
<04428>

Rehoboam
<07346>

strengthened
<02388> (8691)

himself in Jerusalem
<03389>_,

and reigned
<04427> (8799)_:

for Rehoboam
<07346>

[was] one
<0259>

and forty
<0705>

years
<08141>

old
<01121>

when he began to reign
<04427> (8800)_,

and he reigned
<04427> (8804)

seventeen
<07651> <06240>

years
<08141>

in Jerusalem
<03389>_,

the city
<05892>

which the LORD
<03068>

had chosen
<0977> (8804)

out of all the tribes
<07626>

of Israel
<03478>_,

to put
<07760> (8800)

his name
<08034>

there. And his mother's
<0517>

name
<08034>

[was] Naamah
<05279>

an Ammonitess
<05985>_.

And he did
<06213> (8799)

evil
<07451>_,

because he prepared
<03559> (8689)

not his heart
<03820>

to seek
<01875> (8800)

the LORD
<03068>_.

{prepared: or, fixed}

Now the acts
<01697>

of Rehoboam
<07346>_,

first
<07223>

and last
<0314>_,

[are] they not written
<03789> (8803)

in the book
<01697>

of Shemaiah
<08098>

the prophet
<05030>_,

and of Iddo
<05714>

the seer
<02374>

concerning genealogies
<03187> (8692)_?

And [there were] wars
<04421>

between Rehoboam
<07346>

and Jeroboam
<03379>

continually
<03117>_.

{book: Heb. words}

And Rehoboam
<07346>

slept
<07901> (8799)

with his fathers
<01>_,

and was buried
<06912> (8735)

in the city
<05892>

of David
<01732>_:

and Abijah
<029>

his son
<01121>

reigned
<04427> (8799)

in his stead. {Abijah: also called, Abijam}
