Revised Version 1895
2 Chronicles 13:4-12
4And AbijahH29 stoodH6965 upH6965 uponH5921 mountH2022 ZemaraimH6787, whichH834 is in the hillH2022 countryH2022 of EphraimH669, and saidH559, HearH8085 meH5921, O JeroboamH3379 and allH3605 IsraelH3478;
5Ought ye notH3808 to knowH3045 that the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, gaveH5414 the kingdomH4467 over IsraelH3478 to DavidH1732 for everH5769, evenH3588 to him and to his sonsH1121 by a covenantH1285 of saltH4417?
6Yet JeroboamH3379 the sonH1121 of NebatH5028, the servantH5650 of SolomonH8010 the sonH1121 of DavidH1732, roseH6965 upH6965, and rebelledH4775 againstH5921 his lordH113.
7And there were gatheredH6908 unto him vain menH376, sonsH1121 of Belial, which strengthenedH2388 themselvesH5921 againstH5921 RehoboamH7346 the sonH1121 of SolomonH8010, when RehoboamH7346 was youngH5288 and tender-hearted, and couldH376 notH3808 withstandH6440 them.
8And nowH6258 ye thinkH559 to withstandH6440 the kingdomH4467 of the LORDH3068 in the handH3027 of the sonsH1121 of DavidH1732; and ye be a greatH7227 multitudeH1995, and there are with youH859 the goldenH2091 calvesH5695 whichH834 JeroboamH3379 madeH6213 youH859 for godsH430.
9Have ye notH3808 drivenH5080 outH3605 the priestsH3548 of the LORDH3068, the sonsH1121 of AaronH175, and the LevitesH3881, and have madeH6213 youH3605 priestsH3548 afterH1961 the manner of the peoplesH5971 of otherH3605 landsH776? soH6213 that whosoever cometh to consecrate himselfH3027 with a youngH1121 bullock and sevenH7651 ramsH352, the sameH853 may be a priestH3548 of them that are noH3808 godsH430.
10But as for us, the LORDH3068 is our GodH430, and weH587 have notH3808 forsaken him; and weH587 have priestsH3548 ministeringH8334 unto the LORDH3068, the sonsH1121 of AaronH175, and the LevitesH3881 in their workH4399:
11and they burnH6999 unto the LORDH3068 everyH1242 morningH1242 and everyH1242 eveningH6153 burntH5930 offeringsH3068 and sweetH5561 incenseH7004: the shewbread also set they in order uponH5921 the pureH2889 tableH7979; and the candlestick of goldH2091 with the lampsH5216 thereof, to burnH6999 everyH1242 eveningH6153: for weH587 keepH8104 the chargeH4931 of the LORDH3068 our GodH430; but ye have forsaken him.
12And, beholdH2009, GodH430 is with usH5921 at our headH7218, and his priestsH3548 with the trumpetsH2689 of alarmH8643 to soundH7321 an alarmH8643 againstH5921 youH3588. O childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, fightH3898 ye notH3808 againstH5921 the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of your fathersH1; for ye shall notH3808 prosperH6743.
