God’s Word Translation
2 Chronicles 11:12-16
12In each city he stored shields and spears. He made the cities very secure. So Rehoboam held on to Judah and Benjamin.
13The priests and Levites in every region of Israel sided with Rehoboam.
14The priests abandoned their land and property and went to Judah and Jerusalem because Jeroboam and his descendants rejected them as the Lord’s priests.
15Instead, Jeroboam appointed ⌞his own⌟ priests for the illegal worship sites and the goat and calf statues he had made as idols.
16People from every tribe of Israel who were determined to seek the Lord God of Israel followed the Levitical priests to Jerusalem to sacrifice to the Lord God of their ancestors.
