web@2Chronicles:11:5 @Rehoboam lived in Jerusalem, and built cities for defense in Judah.
web@2Chronicles:11:6 @He built Bethlehem, and Etam, and Tekoa,
web@2Chronicles:11:7 @Beth Zur, and Soco, and Adullam,
web@2Chronicles:11:8 @and Gath, and Mareshah, and Ziph,
web@2Chronicles:11:9 @and Adoraim, and Lachish, and Azekah,
web@2Chronicles:11:10 @and Zorah, and Aijalon, and Hebron, which are in Judah and in Benjamin, fortified cities.
web@2Chronicles:11:11 @He fortified the strongholds, and put captains in them, and stores of food, and oil and wine.
web@2Chronicles:11:12 @He put shields and spears in every city, and made them exceeding strong. Judah and Benjamin belonged to him.
web@2Chronicles:11:13 @The priests and the Levites who were in all Israel resorted to him out of all their border.
web@2Chronicles:11:14 @For the Levites left their suburbs and their possession, and came to Judah and Jerusalem: for Jeroboam and his sons cast them off, that they should not execute the priest's office to Yahweh;
web@2Chronicles:11:15 @and he appointed him priests for the high places, and for the male goats, and for the calves which he had made.
web@2Chronicles:11:16 @After them, out of all the tribes of Israel, such as set their hearts to seek Yahweh, the God of Israel, came to Jerusalem to sacrifice to Yahweh, the God of their fathers.
web@2Chronicles:11:17 @So they strengthened the kingdom of Judah, and made Rehoboam the son of Solomon strong, three years; for they walked three years in the way of David and Solomon.
