*
Now in the eighteenth year of king Jerobo
am the son of Nebat became Abiyam king over Judah .
*
Three years he reigned in Jerusalem .
And his mother
s name was Ma
achah ,
the daughter of Abishalom .
*
And he walked in all the sins of his father ,
which he had done before him ;
and his heart was not entire with the Lord his God ,
like the heart of David his father .
*
Nevertheless for the sake of David did the Lord his God give him a rule in Jerusalem ,
to set up his son after him ,
and to allow Jerusalem to exist .
*
Because David did what is right in the eyes of the Lord ,
and turned not aside from all that he had commanded him all the days of his life ,
save only in the matter of Uriyah the Hittite .
*
And there had been war between Rehobo
am and Jerobo
am all the days of his life .
*
And the rest of the acts of Abiyam ,
and all that he did ,
behold ,
they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah .
And there was war between Abiyam and Jerobo
am .
*
And Abiyam slept with his fathers ;
and they buried him in the city of David :
and Assa his son became king in his stead .
