H4427
He reigned
H7969
three
H8141
years
H3389
in Jerusalem:
H517
and his mother's
H8034
name
H4322
was Micaiah
H1323
the daughter
H222
of Uriel
H1390
of Gibeah.
H4421
There was war
H29
between Abijah
H3379
and Jeroboam.
3
H29
Abijah
H631
joined
H4421
battle
H631
with
H2428
an army
H1368
of valiant men
H4421
of war,
H702
even four
H3967
hundred
H505
thousand
H977
chosen
H1368
men:
H3379
and Jeroboam
H4421
set the battle
H6186
in array
H8083
against him with eight
H3967
hundred
H505
thousand
H977
chosen
H376
men,
H376
who were mighty men
H2428
of valor.

H29
Abijah
H6965
stood up
H2022
on Mount
H6787
Zemaraim,
H2022
which is in the hill
H669
country of Ephraim,
H559
and said,
H8085
"Hear
H3379
me, Jeroboam
H3478
and all Israel:
5
H3045
Ought you not to know
H3068
that Yahweh,
H430
the God
H3478
of Israel,
H5414
gave
H4467
the kingdom
H3478
over Israel
H1732
to David
H5769
forever,
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
rose up,
H4775
and rebelled
H113
against his lord.
7
H6908
There were gathered
H1100
to him worthless
H582
men,
H1100
base
H582
fellows,
H553
who 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
"Now you think
H2388
to withstand
H6440
the kingdom
H3068
of Yahweh
H3027
in the hand
H1121
of the sons
H1732
of David;
H7227
and you are a great
H1995
multitude,
H2091
and there are with you the golden
H5695
calves
H3379
which Jeroboam
H6213
made
H430
you for gods.
9
H5080
Haven't you driven out
H3548
the priests
H3068
of Yahweh,
H1121
the sons
H175
of Aaron,
H3881
and the Levites,
H6213
and made
H3548
priests
H5971
for yourselves after the ways of the peoples
H776
of other lands?
H935
so that whoever comes
H4390
to consecrate
H1121
himself with a young
H6499
bull
H7651
and seven
H352
rams,
H3548
the same may be a priest
H3808
of those who are no
H430
gods.
10
H3068
"But as for us, Yahweh
H430
is our God,
H5800
and we have not forsaken
H3548
him; and we have priests
H8334
ministering
H3068
to Yahweh,
H1121
the sons
H175
of Aaron,
H3881
and the Levites
H4399
in their work:
11
H6999
and they burn
H3068
to Yahweh
H1242
every morning
H6153
and every evening
H5930
burnt offerings
H5561
and sweet
H7004
incense.
H3899
They also set the show bread
H2889
in order on the pure
H7979
table;
H4501
and the lampstand
H2091
of gold
H5216
with its lamps,
H1197
to burn
H6153
every evening:
H8104
for we keep
H4931
the instruction
H3068
of Yahweh
H430
our God;
H5800
but you have forsaken him.
12
H430
Behold, God
H7218
is with us at our head,
H3548
and his priests
H2689
with the trumpets
H7321
of alarm
H7321
to sound an alarm
H1121
against you. Children
H3478
of Israel,
H3898
don't fight
H3068
against Yahweh,
H430
the God
H1
of your fathers;
H6743
for you shall not prosper."
13
H3379
But Jeroboam
H3993
caused an ambush
H935
to come
H5437
about
H310
behind
H6440
them: so they were before
H3063
Judah,
H3993
and the ambush
H310
was behind them.
14
H3063
When Judah
H6437
looked back,
H4421
behold, the battle
H6440
was before
H268
and behind
H6817
them; and they cried
H3068
to Yahweh,
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 happened, that God
H5062
struck
H3379
Jeroboam
H3478
and all Israel
H6440
before
H29
Abijah
H3063
and Judah.
16
H1121
The children
H3478
of Israel
H5127
fled
H6440
before
H3063
Judah;
H430
and God
H5414
delivered
H3027
them into their hand.
17
H29
Abijah
H5971
and his people
H5221
killed
H7227
them with a great
H4347
slaughter:
H5307
so there fell down
H2491
slain
H3478
of Israel
H2568
five
H3967
hundred
H505
thousand
H977
chosen
H376
men.
18
H1121
Thus the children
H3478
of Israel
H3665
were brought
H6256
under at that time,
H1121
and the children
H3063
of Judah
H553
prevailed,
H8172
because they relied
H3068
on Yahweh,
H430
the God
H1
of their fathers.
