And when RehoboamH7346 was comeH935 to JerusalemH3389, he gatheredH6950 of the houseH1004 of JudahH3063 and BenjaminH1144 an hundredH3967 and fourscoreH8084 thousandH505 chosenH977 men, which were warriorsH6213+H4421, to fightH3898 against IsraelH3478, that he might bringH7725 the kingdomH4467 againH7725 to RehoboamH7346.
But the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came to ShemaiahH8098 the manH376 of GodH430, sayingH559,
SpeakH559 unto RehoboamH7346 the sonH1121 of SolomonH8010, kingH4428 of JudahH3063, and to all IsraelH3478 in JudahH3063 and BenjaminH1144, sayingH559,
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, Ye shall not go upH5927, nor fightH3898 against your brethrenH251: returnH7725 every manH376 to his houseH1004: for this thingH1697 is doneH1961 of me. And they obeyedH8085 the wordsH1697 of the LORDH3068, and returnedH7725 from goingH3212 against JeroboamH3379.
And RehoboamH7346 dweltH3427 in JerusalemH3389, and builtH1129 citiesH5892 for defenceH4692 in JudahH3063.
He builtH1129 even BethlehemH1035, and EtamH5862, and TekoaH8620,
And BethzurH1049, and ShocoH7755, and AdullamH5725,
And GathH1661, and MareshahH4762, and ZiphH2128,
And AdoraimH115, and LachishH3923, and AzekahH5825,
And ZorahH6881, and AijalonH357, and HebronH2275, which are in JudahH3063 and in BenjaminH1144 fencedH4694 citiesH5892.
And he fortifiedH2388 the strong holdsH4694, and putH5414 captainsH5057 in them, and storeH214 of victualH3978, and of oilH8081 and wineH3196.
And in every several cityH5892 he put shieldsH6793 and spearsH7420, and made them exceedingH7235+H3966 strongH2388, having JudahH3063 and BenjaminH1144 on his side.
And the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881 that were in all IsraelH3478 resortedH3320 to him out of all their coastsH1366. {resorted…: Heb. presented themselves to him}
For the LevitesH3881 leftH5800 their suburbsH4054 and their possessionH272, and cameH3212 to JudahH3063 and JerusalemH3389: for JeroboamH3379 and his sonsH1121 had cast them offH2186 from executing the priest's officeH3547 unto the LORDH3068:
And he ordainedH5975 him priestsH3548 for the high placesH1116, and for the devilsH8163, and for the calvesH5695 which he had madeH6213.
And afterH310 them out of all the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478 such as setH5414 their heartsH3824 to seekH1245 the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478 cameH935 to JerusalemH3389, to sacrificeH2076 unto the LORDH3068 GodH430 of their fathersH1.
So they strengthenedH2388 the kingdomH4438 of JudahH3063, and made RehoboamH7346 the sonH1121 of SolomonH8010 strongH553, threeH7969 yearsH8141: for threeH7969 yearsH8141 they walkedH1980 in the wayH1870 of DavidH1732 and SolomonH8010.
And RehoboamH7346 tookH3947 him MahalathH4258 the daughterH1323+H1121 of JerimothH3406 the sonH1121 of DavidH1732 to wifeH802, and AbihailH32 the daughterH1323 of EliabH446 the sonH1121 of JesseH3448;
Which bareH3205 him childrenH1121; JeushH3266, and ShamariahH8114, and ZahamH2093.
And afterH310 her he tookH3947 MaachahH4601 the daughterH1323 of AbsalomH53; which bareH3205 him AbijahH29, and AttaiH6262, and ZizaH2124, and ShelomithH8019.
And RehoboamH7346 lovedH157 MaachahH4601 the daughterH1323 of AbsalomH53 above all his wivesH802 and his concubinesH6370: (for he tookH5375 eighteenH8083+H6240 wivesH802, and threescoreH8346 concubinesH6370; and begatH3205 twentyH6242 and eightH8083 sonsH1121, and threescoreH8346 daughtersH1323.)
And RehoboamH7346 madeH5975 AbijahH29 the sonH1121 of MaachahH4601 the chiefH7218, to be rulerH5057 among his brethrenH251: for he thought to make him kingH4427.
And he dealt wiselyH995, and dispersedH6555 of all his childrenH1121 throughout all the countriesH776 of JudahH3063 and BenjaminH1144, unto every fencedH4694 cityH5892: and he gaveH5414 them victualH4202 in abundanceH7230. And he desiredH7592 manyH1995 wivesH802. {many wives: Heb. a multitude of wives}
