CKJV_Strongs⁽ⁱ⁾

5 H3045 Should you not know H3068 that the Lord H430 God H3478 of Israel H5414 gave H4467 the kingdom H3478 over Israel H1732 to David H5769 for ever, H1121 even to him and to his sons H1285 by a covenant H4417 of salt?

6 H3379 Yet Jeroboam H1121 the son H5028 of Nebat, H5650 the servant H8010 of Solomon H1121 the son H1732 of David, H6965 is risen up, H4775 and has rebelled H113 against his lord.

7 H6908 And there are gathered H7386 unto him vain H582 men, H1121 the sons H1100 of Belial, H553 and have strengthened H7346 themselves against Rehoboam H1121 the son H8010 of Solomon, H7346 when Rehoboam H5288 was young H7390 and tenderhearted, H2388 and could not withstand H6440 them.

8 H559 And now you think H2388 to withstand H6440 the kingdom H3068 of the Lord H3027 in the hand H1121 of the sons H1732 of David; H7227 and you be a great H1995 multitude, H2091 and there are with you golden H5695 calves, H3379 which Jeroboam H6213 made H430 you for gods.

9 H5080 Have you not cast out H3548 the priests H3068 of the Lord, H1121 the sons H175 of Aaron, H3881 and the Levites, H6213 and have made H3548 you priests H5971 after the manner of the nations H776 of other lands? H935 so that whoever comes H4390 to consecrate H1121 himself with a young H6499 bullock H7651 and seven H352 rams, H3548 the same may be a priest H3808 of them that are no H430 gods.

10 H3068 But as for us, the Lord H430 is our God, H5800 and we have not forsaken H3548 him; and the priests, H8334 which minister H3068 unto the Lord, H1121 are the sons H175 of Aaron, H3881 and the Levites H4399 wait upon their business:

11 H6999 And they burn H3068 unto the Lord H1242 every morning H6153 and every evening H5930 burnt sacrifices H5561 and sweet H7004 incense: H3899 the showbread H2889 also set they in order upon the pure H7979 table; H4501 and the lampstand H2091 of gold H5216 with the lamps H1197 there, to burn H6153 every evening: H8104 for we keep H4931 the charge H3068 of the Lord H430 our God; H5800 but you have forsaken him.

12 H430 And, behold, God H7218 himself is with us for our captain, H3548 and his priests H8643 with sounding H2689 trumpets H7321 to cry alarm H1121 against you. O sons H3478 of Israel, H3898 fight H3068 you not against the Lord H430 God H1 of your fathers; H6743 for you shall not prosper.

13 H3379 But Jeroboam H3993 caused an ambushment H935 to come H5437 about H310 behind H6440 them: so they were before H3063 Judah, H3993 and the ambushment H310 was behind them.

14 H3063 And when Judah H6437 looked back, H4421 behold, the battle H6440 was before H268 and behind: H6817 and they cried H3068 unto the Lord, H3548 and the priests H2690 sounded H2689 with the trumpets.

15 H376 Then the men H3063 of Judah H7321 gave a shout: H376 and as the men H3063 of Judah H7321 shouted, H430 it came to pass, that God H5062 struck H3379 Jeroboam H3478 and all Israel H6440 before H29 Abijah H3063 and Judah.

16 H1121 And the sons H3478 of Israel H5127 fled H6440 before H3063 Judah: H430 and God H5414 delivered H3027 them into their hand.
