2 Chronicles - Chapter: 11

>
11:1And when Rehoboam was come to Jerusalem, he gathered of the house of Judah and Benjamin an hundred and fourscore thousand chosen men, which were warriors, to fight against Israel, that he might bring the kingdom again to Rehoboam.
11:2But the word of the LORD came to Shemaiah the man of God, saying,
11:3Speak unto Rehoboam the son of Solomon, king of Judah, and to all Israel in Judah and Benjamin, saying,
11:4Thus saith the LORD, Ye shall not go up, nor fight against your brethren: return every man to his house: for this thing is done of me. And they obeyed the words of the LORD, and returned from going against Jeroboam.
11:5And Rehoboam dwelt in Jerusalem, and built cities for defence in Judah.
11:6He built even Bethlehem, and Etam, and Tekoa,
11:7And Bethzur, and Shoco, and Adullam,
11:8And Gath, and Mareshah, and Ziph,
11:9And Adoraim, and Lachish, and Azekah,
11:10And Zorah, and Aijalon, and Hebron, which are in Judah and in Benjamin fenced cities.
11:11And he fortified the strong holds, and put captains in them, and store of victual, and of oil and wine.
11:12And in every several city he put shields and spears, and made them exceeding strong, having Judah and Benjamin on his side.
11:13And the priests and the Levites that were in all Israel resorted to him out of all their coasts.
11:14For the Levites left their suburbs and their possession, and came to Judah and Jerusalem: for Jeroboam and his sons had cast them off from executing the priest's office unto the LORD:
11:15And he ordained him priests for the high places, and for the devils, and for the calves which he had made.
11:16And after them out of all the tribes of Israel such as set their hearts to seek the LORD God of Israel came to Jerusalem, to sacrifice unto the LORD God of their fathers.
11:17So they strengthened the kingdom of Judah, and made Rehoboam the son of Solomon strong, three years: for three years they walked in the way of David and Solomon.
11:18And Rehoboam took him Mahalath the daughter of Jerimoth the son of David to wife, and Abihail the daughter of Eliab the son of Jesse;
11:19Which bare him children; Jeush, and Shamariah, and Zaham.
11:20And after her he took Maachah the daughter of Absalom; which bare him Abijah, and Attai, and Ziza, and Shelomith.
11:21And Rehoboam loved Maachah the daughter of Absalom above all his wives and his concubines: (for he took eighteen wives, and threescore concubines; and begat twenty and eight sons, and threescore daughters.)
11:22And Rehoboam made Abijah the son of Maachah the chief, to be ruler among his brethren: for he thought to make him king.
11:23And he dealt wisely, and dispersed of all his children throughout all the countries of Judah and Benjamin, unto every fenced city: and he gave them victual in abundance. And he desired many wives.

11:1And Rehoboam cometh in to Jerusalem, and assembleth the house of Judah and Benjamin, a hundred and eighty thousand chosen warriors, to fight with Israel, to bring back the kingdom to Rehoboam.
11:2And a word of Jehovah is unto Shemaiah, a man of God, saying,
11:3`Speak unto Rehoboam son of Solomon king of Judah, and unto all Israel in Judah and Benjamin, saying,
11:4Thus said Jehovah, Ye do not go up nor fight with your brethren, turn back each to his house, for from Me hath this thing been;' and they hear the words of Jehovah, and turn back from going against Jeroboam.
11:5And Rehoboam dwelleth in Jerusalem, and buildeth cities for a bulwark in Judah,
11:6yea, he buildeth Beth-Lehem and Etam, and Tekoa,
11:7and Beth-Zur, and Shocho, and Adullam,
11:8and Gath, and Mareshah, and Ziph,
11:9and Adoraim, and Lachish, and Azekah,
11:10and Zorah, and Aijalon, and Hebron, that `are' in Judah and in Benjamin, cities of bulwarks.
11:11And he strengtheneth the bulwarks, and putteth in them leaders, and treasures of food, and oil, and wine,
11:12and in every city and city targets and spears, and strengtheneth them very greatly; and he hath Judah and Benjamin.
11:13And the priests, and the Levites, that `are' in all Israel, have stationed themselves by him, out of all their border,
11:14for the Levites have left their suburbs and their possession, and they come to Judah and to Jerusalem, for Jeroboam and his sons have cast them off from acting as priests to Jehovah,
11:15and he establisheth to him priests for high places, and for goats, and for calves, that he made --
11:16and after them, out of all the tribes of Israel, those giving their heart to seek Jehovah, God of Israel, have come in to Jerusalem to sacrifice to Jehovah, God of their father.
11:17And they strengthen the kingdom of Judah, and strengthen Rehoboam son of Solomon, for three years, because they walked in the way of David and Solomon for three years.
11:18And Rehoboam taketh to him a wife, Mahalath, child of Jerimoth son of David, `and' Abigail daughter of Eliab, son of Jesse.
11:19And she beareth to him sons, Jeush, and Shamaria, and Zaham.
11:20And after her he hath taken Maachah daughter of Absalom, and she beareth to him Abijah, and Attai, and Ziza, and Shelomith.
11:21And Rehoboam loveth Maachah daughter of Absalom above all his wives and his concubines -- for eighteen wives he hath taken, and sixty concubines -- and he begetteth twenty and eight sons, and sixty daughters.
11:22And Rehoboam appointeth for head Abijah son of Maachah, for leader among his brethren, for to cause him to reign.
11:23And he hath understanding, and spreadeth out of all his sons to all lands of Judah and Benjamin, to all cities of the bulwarks, and giveth to them provision in abundance; and he asketh a multitude of wives.
