And Jeroboam{H3379} and all the congregation{H6951} of Israel{H3478} came{H935}{(H8799)}, and spake{H1696}{(H8762)} unto Rehoboam{H7346}, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, 4 Thy father{H1} made{H7185} our yoke{H5923} grievous{H7185}{(H8689)}: now therefore make thou the grievous{H7186} service{H5656} of thy father{H1}, and his heavy{H3515} yoke{H5923} which he put{H5414}{(H8804)} upon us, lighter{H7043}{(H8685)}, and we will serve{H5647}{(H8799)} thee. 5 And he said{H559}{(H8799)} unto them, Depart{H3212}{(H8798)} yet for three{H7969} days{H3117}, then come again{H7725}{(H8798)} to me. And the people{H5971} departed{H3212}{(H8799)}. 6 And king{H4428} Rehoboam{H7346} consulted{H3289}{(H8735)} with the old men{H2205}, that stood{H5975}{(H8802)} before{H6440} Solomon{H8010} his father{H1} while he yet lived{H2416}, and said{H559}{(H8800)}, How do ye advise{H3289}{(H8737)} that I may{H7725}{(H8687)} answer{H1697} this people{H5971}? 7 And they spake{H1696}{(H8762)} unto him, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, If thou wilt be a servant{H5650} unto this people{H5971} this day{H3117}, and wilt serve{H5647}{(H8804)} them, and answer{H6030}{(H8804)} them, and speak{H1696}{(H8765)} good{H2896} words{H1697} to them, then they will be thy servants{H5650} for ever{H3117}. 8 But he forsook{H5800}{(H8799)} the counsel{H6098} of the old men{H2205}, which they had given{H3289}{(H8804)} him, and consulted{H3289}{(H8735)} with the young men{H3206} that were grown up{H1431}{(H8804)} with him, and which stood{H5975}{(H8802)} before{H6440} him: 9 And he said{H559}{(H8799)} unto them, What counsel give{H3289}{(H8737)} ye that we may{H7725}{(H8686)} answer{H1697} this people{H5971}, who have spoken{H1696}{(H8765)} to me, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, Make{H7043} the yoke{H5923} which thy father{H1} did put{H5414}{(H8804)} upon us lighter{H7043}{(H8685)}? 10 And the young men{H3206} that were grown up{H1431}{(H8804)} with him spake{H1696}{(H8762)} unto him, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, Thus shalt thou speak{H559}{(H8799)} unto this people{H5971} that spake{H1696}{(H8765)} unto thee, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, Thy father{H1} made{H3513} our yoke{H5923} heavy{H3513}{(H8689)}, but make thou it lighter{H7043}{(H8685)} unto us; thus shalt thou say{H1696}{(H8762)} unto them, My little{H6995} finger shall be thicker{H5666}{(H8804)} than my father's{H1} loins{H4975}. 11 And now whereas my father{H1} did lade{H6006}{(H8689)} you with a heavy{H3515} yoke{H5923}, I will add{H3254}{(H8686)} to your yoke{H5923}: my father{H1} hath chastised{H3256}{(H8765)} you with whips{H7752}, but I will chastise{H3256}{(H8762)} you with scorpions{H6137}. 12 So Jeroboam{H3379} and all the people{H5971} came{H935}{(H8799)} to Rehoboam{H7346} the third{H7992} day{H3117}, as the king{H4428} had appointed{H1696}{(H8765)}, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, Come to me again{H7725}{(H8798)} the third{H7992} day{H3117}. 13 And the king{H4428} answered{H6030}{(H8799)} the people{H5971} roughly{H7186}, and forsook{H5800}{(H8799)} the old men's{H2205} counsel{H6098} that they gave{H3289}{(H8804)} him; 14 And spake{H1696}{(H8762)} to them after the counsel{H6098} of the young men{H3206}, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, My father{H1} made{H3513} your yoke{H5923} heavy{H3513}{(H8689)}, and I will add{H3254}{(H8686)} to your yoke{H5923}: my father{H1} also chastised{H3256}{(H8765)} you with whips{H7752}, but I will chastise{H3256}{(H8762)} you with scorpions{H6137}. 15 Wherefore the king{H4428} hearkened{H8085}{(H8804)} not unto the people{H5971}; for the cause{H5438} was from the LORD{H3068}, that he might perform{H6965}{(H8687)} his saying{H1697}, which the LORD{H3068} spake{H1696}{(H8765)} by{H3027} Ahijah{H281} the Shilonite{H7888} unto Jeroboam{H3379} the son{H1121} of Nebat{H5028}. 16 So{H7725}{(H8686)} when all Israel{H3478} saw{H7200}{(H8799)} that the king{H4428} hearkened{H8085}{(H8804)} not unto them, the people{H5971} answered{H1697} the king{H4428}, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, What portion{H2506} have we in David{H1732}? neither have we inheritance{H5159} in the son{H1121} of Jesse{H3448}: to your tents{H168}, O Israel{H3478}: now see{H7200}{(H8798)} to thine own house{H1004}, David{H1732}. So Israel{H3478} departed{H3212}{(H8799)} unto their tents{H168}. 17 But as for the children{H1121} of Israel{H3478} which dwelt{H3427}{(H8802)} in the cities{H5892} of Judah{H3063}, Rehoboam{H7346} reigned{H4427}{(H8799)} over them. 18 Then king{H4428} Rehoboam{H7346} sent{H7971}{(H8799)} Adoram{H151}, who was over the tribute{H4522}; and all Israel{H3478} stoned{H7275}{(H8799)} him with stones{H68}, that he died{H4191}{(H8799)}. Therefore king{H4428} Rehoboam{H7346} made speed{H553}{(H8694)} to get him up{H5927}{(H8800)} to his chariot{H4818}, to flee{H5127}{(H8800)} to Jerusalem{H3389}. 19 So Israel{H3478} rebelled{H6586}{(H8799)} against the house{H1004} of David{H1732} unto this day{H3117}. 20 And it came to pass, when all Israel{H3478} heard{H8085}{(H8800)} that Jeroboam{H3379} was come again{H7725}{(H8804)}, that they sent{H7971}{(H8799)} and called{H7121}{(H8799)} him unto the congregation{H5712}, and made him king{H4427}{(H8686)} over all Israel{H3478}: there was none that followed{H310} the house{H1004} of David{H1732}, but{H2108} the tribe{H7626} of Judah{H3063} only. 21 And when Rehoboam{H7346} was come{H935}{(H8799)} to Jerusalem{H3389}, he assembled{H6950}{(H8686)} all the house{H1004} of Judah{H3063}, with the tribe{H7626} of Benjamin{H1144}, an hundred{H3967} and fourscore{H8084} thousand{H505} chosen men{H977}{(H8803)}, which were warriors{H6213}{(H8802)}{H4421}, to fight{H3898}{(H8736)} against the house{H1004} of Israel{H3478}, to bring{H7725} the kingdom{H4410} again{H7725}{(H8687)} to Rehoboam{H7346} the son{H1121} of Solomon{H8010}. 22 But the word{H1697} of God{H430} came unto Shemaiah{H8098} the man{H376} of God{H430}, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, 23 Speak{H559}{(H8798)} unto Rehoboam{H7346}, the son{H1121} of Solomon{H8010}, king{H4428} of Judah{H3063}, and unto all the house{H1004} of Judah{H3063} and Benjamin{H1144}, and to the remnant{H3499} of the people{H5971}, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, 24 Thus saith{H559}{(H8804)} the LORD{H3068}, Ye shall not go up{H5927}{(H8799)}, nor fight{H3898}{(H8735)} against your brethren{H251} the children{H1121} of Israel{H3478}: return{H7725}{(H8798)} every man{H376} to his house{H1004}; for this thing{H1697} is{H1961}{(H8738)} from me. They hearkened{H8085}{(H8799)} therefore to the word{H1697} of the LORD{H3068}, and returned{H7725}{(H8799)} to depart{H3212}{(H8800)}, according to the word{H1697} of the LORD{H3068}.

And his mother's{H517} name{H8034} was Maachah{H4601}, the daughter{H1323} of Abishalom{H53}. 11 And Asa{H609} did{H6213}{(H8799)} that which was right{H3477} in the eyes{H5869} of the LORD{H3068}, as did David{H1732} his father{H1}. 12 And he took away{H5674}{(H8686)} the sodomites{H6945} out of the land{H776}, and removed{H5493}{(H8686)} all the idols{H1544} that his fathers{H1} had made{H6213}{(H8804)}. 13 And also Maachah{H4601} his mother{H517}, even her he removed{H5493}{(H8686)} from being queen{H1377}, because she had made{H6213}{(H8804)} an idol{H4656} in a grove{H842}; and Asa{H609} destroyed{H3772}{(H8799)} her idol{H4656}, and burnt{H8313}{(H8799)} it by the brook{H5158} Kidron{H6939}. 14 But the high places{H1116} were not removed{H5493}{(H8804)}: nevertheless Asa's{H609} heart{H3824} was perfect{H8003} with the LORD{H3068} all his days{H3117}. 15 And he brought{H935}{(H8686)} in the things{H6944} which his father{H1} had dedicated{H6944}, and the things which himself had dedicated{H6944}, into the house{H1004} of the LORD{H3068}, silver{H3701}, and gold{H2091}, and vessels{H3627}. 16 And there was war{H4421} between Asa{H609} and Baasha{H1201} king{H4428} of Israel{H3478} all their days{H3117}. 17 And Baasha{H1201} king{H4428} of Israel{H3478} went up{H5927}{(H8799)} against Judah{H3063}, and built{H1129}{(H8799)} Ramah{H7414}, that he might not suffer{H5414}{(H8800)} any to go out{H3318}{(H8802)} or come in{H935}{(H8802)} to Asa{H609} king{H4428} of Judah{H3063}. 18 Then Asa{H609} took{H3947}{(H8799)} all the silver{H3701} and the gold{H2091} that were left{H3498}{(H8737)} in the treasures{H214} of the house{H1004} of the LORD{H3068}, and the treasures{H214} of the king's{H4428} house{H1004}, and delivered{H5414}{(H8799)} them into the hand{H3027} of his servants{H5650}: and king{H4428} Asa{H609} sent{H7971}{(H8799)} them to Benhadad{H1130}, the son{H1121} of Tabrimon{H2886}, the son{H1121} of Hezion{H2383}, king{H4428} of Syria{H758}, that dwelt{H3427}{(H8802)} at Damascus{H1834}, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, 19 There is a league{H1285} between me and thee, and between my father{H1} and thy father{H1}: behold, I have sent{H7971}{(H8804)} unto thee a present{H7810} of silver{H3701} and gold{H2091}; come{H3212}{(H8798)} and break{H6565}{(H8685)} thy league{H1285} with Baasha{H1201} king{H4428} of Israel{H3478}, that he may depart{H5927}{(H8799)} from me. 20 So Benhadad{H1130} hearkened{H8085}{(H8799)} unto king{H4428} Asa{H609}, and sent{H7971}{(H8799)} the captains{H8269} of the hosts{H2428} which he had against the cities{H5892} of Israel{H3478}, and smote{H5221}{(H8686)} Ijon{H5859}, and Dan{H1835}, and Abelbethmaachah{H62}, and all Cinneroth{H3672}, with all the land{H776} of Naphtali{H5321}. 21 And it came to pass, when Baasha{H1201} heard{H8085}{(H8800)} thereof, that he left off{H2308}{(H8799)} building{H1129}{(H8800)} of Ramah{H7414}, and dwelt{H3427}{(H8799)} in Tirzah{H8656}. 22 Then king{H4428} Asa{H609} made a proclamation{H8085}{(H8689)} throughout all Judah{H3063}; none was exempted{H5355}: and they took{H5375}{(H8799)} away the stones{H68} of Ramah{H7414}, and the timber{H6086} thereof, wherewith Baasha{H1201} had builded{H1129}{(H8804)}; and king{H4428} Asa{H609} built{H1129}{(H8799)} with them Geba{H1387} of Benjamin{H1144}, and Mizpah{H4709}. 23 The rest{H3499} of all the acts{H1697} of Asa{H609}, and all his might{H1369}, and all that he did{H6213}{(H8804)}, and the cities{H5892} which he built{H1129}{(H8804)}, are they not written{H3789}{(H8803)} in the book{H5612} of the chronicles{H1697}{H3117} of the kings{H4428} of Judah{H3063}?

So they built{H1129}{(H8799)} and prospered{H6743}{(H8686)}. 8 And Asa{H609} had an army{H2428} of men that bare{H5375}{(H8802)} targets{H6793} and spears{H7420}, out of Judah{H3063} three{H7969} hundred{H3967} thousand{H505}; and out of Benjamin{H1144}, that bare{H5375}{(H8802)} shields{H4043} and drew{H1869}{(H8802)} bows{H7198}, two hundred{H3967} and fourscore{H8084} thousand{H505}: all these were mighty men{H1368} of valour{H2428}. 9 And there came out{H3318}{(H8799)} against them Zerah{H2226} the Ethiopian{H3569} with an host{H2428} of a thousand{H505} thousand{H505}, and three{H7969} hundred{H3967} chariots{H4818}; and came{H935}{(H8799)} unto Mareshah{H4762}. 10 Then Asa{H609} went out{H3318}{(H8799)} against{H6440} him, and they set the battle{H4421} in array{H6186}{(H8799)} in the valley{H1516} of Zephathah{H6859} at Mareshah{H4762}. 11 And Asa{H609} cried{H7121}{(H8799)} unto the LORD{H3068} his God{H430}, and said{H559}{(H8799)}, LORD{H3068}, it is nothing with thee to help{H5826}{(H8800)}, whether{H996} with many{H7227}, or with them that have no power{H3581}: help{H5826}{(H8798)} us, O LORD{H3068} our God{H430}; for we rest{H8172}{(H8738)} on thee, and in thy name{H8034} we go{H935}{(H8804)} against this multitude{H1995}. O LORD{H3068}, thou art our God{H430}; let not man{H582} prevail{H6113}{(H8799)} against thee. 12 So the LORD{H3068} smote{H5062}{(H8799)} the Ethiopians{H3569} before{H6440} Asa{H609}, and before{H6440} Judah{H3063}; and the Ethiopians{H3569} fled{H5127}{(H8799)}. 13 And Asa{H609} and the people{H5971} that were with him pursued{H7291}{(H8799)} them unto Gerar{H1642}: and the Ethiopians{H3569} were overthrown{H5307}{(H8799)}, that they could not recover{H4241} themselves; for they were destroyed{H7665}{(H8738)} before{H6440} the LORD{H3068}, and before{H6440} his host{H4264}; and they carried away{H5375}{(H8799)} very{H3966} much{H7235}{(H8687)} spoil{H7998}. 14 And they smote{H5221}{(H8686)} all the cities{H5892} round about{H5439} Gerar{H1642}; for the fear{H6343} of the LORD{H3068} came upon them: and they spoiled{H962}{(H8799)} all the cities{H5892}; for there was exceeding much{H7227} spoil{H961} in them. 15 They smote{H5221}{(H8689)} also the tents{H168} of cattle{H4735}, and carried away{H7617}{(H8799)} sheep{H6629} and camels{H1581} in abundance{H7230}, and returned{H7725}{(H8799)} to Jerusalem{H3389}.
