ULT 2CH Chapter 11

2CH 11 ©

11And Rehoboam came to Jerusalem, and he assembled the house of Judah and Benjamin, 180,000 chosen who do battle, to fight against Israel, to bring back the kingdom to Rehoboam. 2But the word of Yahweh was to Shemaiah the man of God, saying, 3“Say to Rehoboam the son of Solomon, king of Judah, and to all Israel in Judah and Benjamin, saying, 4‘Thus says Yahweh, “Do not go up and do not fight with your brothers. Return, each to his house, for from with me, this thing is.” ’ ” And they listened to the words of Yahweh and returned from going against Jeroboam.

5And Rehoboam dwelled in Jerusalem, and he built cities for fortification in Judah. 6And he built Bethlehem, and Etam, and Tekoa, 7and Beth Zur, and Soko, and Adullam, 8and Gath, and Mareshah, and Ziph, 9and Adoraim, and Lachish, and Azekah, 10and Zorah, and Aijalon, and Hebron, which were in Judah and in Benjamin, fortified cities. 11And he strengthened the fortifications. And he placed in them leaders and storehouses of food and oil and wine, 12and in each, city by city, large shields and spears, and he very much strengthened them greatly. And to him were Judah and Benjamin.

13And the priests and the Levites who were in all Israel presented themselves to him from all their territories. 14For the Levites left their open lands and their property. And they went to Judah and to Jerusalem, for Jeroboam and his sons rejected them from serving as priests to Yahweh. 15And he established for himself priests for the high places and for the goats and for the calves which he had made. 16And after them from all the tribes of Israel, the ones giving their heart to seek Yahweh, the God of Israel, came to Jerusalem to sacrifice to Yahweh, the God of their fathers. 17And they strengthened the kingdom of Judah, and they made Rehoboam the son of Solomon strong for three years, for they walked in the way of David and Solomon for three years.

18And Rehoboam took for himself a wife: Mahalath, the daughter of Jerimoth, the son of David, Abihail, the daughter of Eliab, the son of Jesse. 19And she bore to him sons: Jeush, and Shemariah, and Zaham. 20And after her, he took Maacah, the daughter of Absalom; and she bore to him Abijah, and Attai, and Ziza, and Shelomith. 21And Rehoboam loved Maacah, the daughter of Absalom, more than all his wives and his concubines, for he lifted 18 wives and 60 concubines, and he fathered 28 sons and 60 daughters. 22And Rehoboam appointed to be head Abijah the son of Maacah, to be leader among his brothers; for he caused to make him king. 23And he dealt wisely, and he scattered all his sons to all the lands of Judah and Benjamin to all the fortified cities. And he gave to them provisions in abundance, and he asked for a multitude of wives.
