God’s Word Translation
2 Chronicles 12:13-16
13King Rehoboam strengthened his position in Jerusalem and ruled. He was 41 years old when he began to rule. He ruled for 17 years in Jerusalem, the city that the Lord chose from all the tribes of Israel, the city where the Lord put his name. (Rehoboam’s mother was an Ammonite woman named Naamah.)
14He did evil things because he was not serious about dedicating himself to serving the Lord.
15Aren’t the events concerning Rehoboam from first to last written in the records of the prophet Shemaiah and the records of the seer Iddo in the genealogies? There was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam as long as they lived.
16Rehoboam lay down in death with his ancestors and was buried in the City of David. His son Abijah succeeded him as king.
