1Kings:14:21-31
lesserot@1Kings:14:21 @ And Rehoboam the son of Solomon reigned in Judah. Rehoboam was forty and one years old when he became king, and seventeen years did he reign in Jerusalem, the city which the Lord had chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, to put his name there. And his mothers name was Naamah the Ammonitess.
lesserot@1Kings:14:22 @ And Judah did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord, and they moved him to wrath more than all that their fathers had done, with their sins which they committed.
lesserot@1Kings:14:23 @ And they also built themselves highplaces, and standing images, and groves, on every high hill, and under every green tree.
lesserot@1Kings:14:24 @ And sodomites also were in the land: they acted in accordance with all the abominable deeds of the nations which the Lord had driven out before the children of Israel.
lesserot@1Kings:14:25 @ And it came to pass in the fifth year of king Rehoboam, that Shishak the king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem:
lesserot@1Kings:14:26 @ And he took away the treasures of the house of the Lord, and the treasures of the kings house; yea, every thing did he take away; and he took away all the shields of gold which Solomon had made.
lesserot@1Kings:14:27 @ And king Rehoboam made in their stead shields of copper, and committed them for keeping into the hand of the chiefs of the runners, who kept guard at the door of the kings house.
lesserot@1Kings:14:28 @ And it happened whenever the king went into the house of the Lord, that the runners used to bear them, and carried them then back into the apartment of the runners.
lesserot@1Kings:14:29 @ And the rest of the acts of Rehoboam, and all that he did, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah.
lesserot@1Kings:14:30 @ And there was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all the days.
lesserot@1Kings:14:31 @ And Rehoboam slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David. And his mothers name was Naamah the Ammonitess. And Abiyam his son became king in his stead.
