1 Kings 15:2-10

2ThreeH7969 yearsH8141 reignedH4427 he in JerusalemH3389: and his mother’sH517 nameH8034 was MaacahH4601 the daughterH1323 of AbishalomH53.

3And he walked in allH3605 the sinsH2403 of his fatherH1, whichH834 he had doneH6213 beforeH6440 him: and his heartH3824 was notH3808 perfectH8003 with the LORDH3068 his GodH430, as the heartH3824 of DavidH1732 his fatherH1.

4NeverthelessH3588 for David’sH1732 sakeH4616 did the LORDH3068 his GodH430 giveH5414 him a lampH5216 in JerusalemH3389, to setH5414 upH6965 his sonH1121 afterH310 him, and to establishH6965 JerusalemH3389:

5becauseH834 DavidH1732 didH6213 that whichH834 was rightH3477 in the eyesH5869 of the LORDH3068, and turnedH5493 notH3808 asideH5493 from anyH3605 thingH1697 that he commandedH6680 him allH3605 the daysH3117 of his lifeH3117, save onlyH7535 in the matterH1697 of UriahH223 the HittiteH2850.

6NowH1961 there was warH4421 betweenH996 RehoboamH7346 and JeroboamH3379 allH3605 the daysH3117 of his lifeH3117.

7And the restH3499 of the actsH1697 of AbijamH38, and allH3605 that he didH6213, are they notH3808 writtenH3789 in the bookH5612 of the chroniclesH1697 of the kingsH4428 of JudahH3063? And there was warH4421 betweenH996 AbijamH38 and JeroboamH3379.

8And AbijamH38 sleptH7901 with his fathersH1; and they buriedH6912 him in the cityH5892 of DavidH1732: and AsaH609 his sonH1121 reignedH4427 in his steadH8478.

9And in the twentiethH6242 yearH8141 of JeroboamH3379 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 began AsaH609 to reignH4427 over JudahH3063.

10And fortyH705 and one yearsH8141 reignedH4427 he in JerusalemH3389: and his mother’sH517 nameH8034 was MaacahH4601 the daughterH1323 of AbishalomH53.
