1 Kings 15:2-10

2He reignedH4427 threeH7969 yearsH8141 in JerusalemH3389; and his mother’sH517 nameH8034 was 12MaacahH4601 the daughterH1323 of 34AbishalomH53. 3He walkedH1980 in allH3605 the sinsH2403 of his fatherH1 whichH834 he had committedH6213 beforeH6440 him; and 5his heartH3824 was not 6whollyH8003 devotedH8003 to the LordH3068 his GodH430, like the heartH3824 of his fatherH1 DavidH1732. 4But for David’sH1732 sakeH4616 the LordH3068 his GodH430 gaveH5414 him a 7lampH5215 in JerusalemH3389, to raiseH6965 up his sonH1121 afterH310 him and to establishH5975 JerusalemH3389; 58becauseH834 DavidH1732 didH6213 whatH3477 was rightH3477 in the sightH5869 of the LordH3068, and had not turnedH5493 asideH5493 from anythingH3605 that He commandedH6680 him allH3605 the daysH3117 of his lifeH2425, 9exceptH7534 in the caseH1697 of UriahH223 the HittiteH2850. 610There was warH4421 betweenH996 RehoboamH7346 and JeroboamH3379 allH3605 the daysH3117 of his lifeH2425.

7Now 11the restH3499 of the actsH1697 of AbijamH38 and allH3605 that he didH6213, are they not writtenH3789 in the BookH5612 of the ChroniclesH1697H3117 of the KingsH4428 of JudahH3063? 12And there was warH4421 betweenH996 AbijamH38 and JeroboamH3379. 813And AbijamH38 sleptH7901 with his fathersH1 and they buriedH6912 him in the cityH5892 of DavidH1732; and AsaH609 his sonH1121 becameH4427 kingH4427 in his placeH8478.

9So in the twentiethH6242 yearH8141 of JeroboamH3379 the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478, AsaH609 began to reignH4427 as kingH4428 of JudahH3063. 10He reignedH4427 forty-oneH705H259 yearsH8141 in JerusalemH3389; and 14his mother’sH517 nameH8034 was MaacahH4601 the daughterH1323 of AbishalomH53.
