He reigned H4427 three H7969 MFS years H8141 NFP in Jerusalem H3389 . His mother H517 GFS-3MS \'s name H8034 W-CMS also [ was ] Michaiah H4322 the daughter H1323 of Uriel H222 of H4480 PREP Gibeah H1390 . And there was H1961 VQQ3FS war H4421 between H996 PREP Abijah H29 and Jeroboam H3379 .
And Abijah H29 set H631 W-VQY3MS the battle H4421 in array with an army H2428 of valiant men H1368 AMS of war H4421 NFS , [ even ] four H702 MFS hundred H3967 BFP thousand H505 W-BMS chosen H977 men H376 NMS : Jeroboam H3379 also set the battle in array H6186 VQQ3MS against H5973 PREP-3MS him with eight H8083 hundred H3967 BFP thousand H505 W-BMS chosen H977 men H376 NMS , [ being ] mighty men H1368 AMS of valor H2428 NMS .
And Abijah H29 stood up H6965 W-VQY3MS upon H5921 M-PREP mount H2022 Zemaraim H6787 , which H834 RPRO [ is ] in mount H2022 Ephraim H669 , and said H559 W-VQY3MS , Hear H8085 me , thou Jeroboam H3379 , and all H3605 W-CMS Israel H3478 LMS ;
Ought ye not H3808 I-NADV to know H3045 L-VQFC that H3588 CONJ the LORD H3068 EDS God H430 CDP of Israel H3478 gave H5414 VQQ3MS the kingdom H4467 over H5921 PREP Israel H3478 to David H1732 forever H5769 L-NMS , [ even ] to him and to his sons H1121 by a covenant H1285 NFS of salt H4417 ?
Yet Jeroboam H3379 the son H1121 CMS of Nebat H5028 , the servant H5650 NMS of Solomon H8010 MMS the son H1121 CMS of David H1732 , is risen up H6965 W-VQY3MS , and hath rebelled H4775 against H5921 PREP his lord H113 .
And there are gathered H6908 unto H5921 PREP-3MS him vain H7386 men H376 , the children H1121 of Belial H1100 , and have strengthened themselves H553 against H5921 PREP-3MS Rehoboam H7346 the son H1121 of Solomon H8010 MMS , when Rehoboam H7346 was H1961 VQQ3MS young H5288 and tenderhearted H7390 , and could not H3808 W-NPAR withstand H2388 them .
And now H6258 W-ADV ye H859 PPRO-2MS think H559 to withstand H2388 the kingdom H4467 of the LORD H3068 EDS in the hand H3027 B-CFS of the sons H1121 of David H1732 ; and ye H859 W-PPRO-2MP [ be ] a great H7227 AMS multitude H1995 NMS , and [ there ] [ are ] with H5973 W-PREP-2MS you golden H2091 NMS calves H5695 , which H834 RPRO Jeroboam H3379 made H6213 VQQ3MS you for gods H430 L-NMP .
Have ye not H3808 I-NADV cast out H5080 the priests H3548 of the LORD H3068 EDS , the sons H1121 of Aaron H175 , and the Levites H3881 , and have made H6213 you priests H3548 NMP after the manner of the nations H5971 of [ other ] lands H776 ? so that whosoever H3605 NMS cometh H935 to consecrate H4390 L-VPFC himself with a young H1121 bullock H6499 and seven H7651 NUM-MS rams H352 , [ the ] [ same ] may be H1961 W-VQQ3MS a priest H3548 NMS of [ them ] [ that ] [ are ] no H3808 L-NPAR gods H430 NAME-4MP .
But as for us H587 , the LORD H3068 EDS [ is ] our God H430 , and we have not H3808 W-NPAR forsaken H5800 him ; and the priests H3548 , which minister H8334 unto the LORD H3068 L-EDS , [ are ] the sons H1121 of Aaron H175 , and the Levites H3881 [ wait ] upon [ their ] business H4399 :
And they burn H6999 unto the LORD H3068 L-EDS every morning H1242 B-NMS and every evening H6153 burnt sacrifices H5930 CFP and sweet H5561 incense H7004 : the shewbread H3899 NMS also [ set ] [ they ] [ in ] [ order ] upon H5921 PREP the pure H2889 table H7979 ; and the candlestick H4501 of gold H2091 with the lamps H5216 thereof , to burn H1197 every evening H6153 : for H3588 CONJ we H587 PPRO-1MP keep H8104 the charge H4931 of the LORD H3068 EDS our God H430 ; but ye H859 W-PPRO-2MP have forsaken H5800 him .
And , behold H2009 IJEC , God H430 D-EDP himself [ is ] with H5973 PREP-1MP us for [ our ] captain H7218 , and his priests H3548 with sounding H8643 trumpets H2689 to cry alarm H7321 against H5921 PREP-2MP you . O children H1121 of Israel H3478 , fight H3898 ye not H408 NPAR against H5973 PREP the LORD H3068 EDS God H430 of your fathers H1 ; for H3588 CONJ ye shall not H3808 NADV prosper H6743 .
But Jeroboam H3379 caused H5437 an ambushment H3993 to come about H935 L-VQFC behind H310 them : so they were H1961 W-VQY3MP before H6440 L-CMP Judah H3063 , and the ambushment H3993 [ was ] behind H310 them .
And when Judah H3063 looked back H6437 , behold H2009 IJEC , the battle H4421 [ was ] before H6440 NMP and behind H268 W-NMS : and they cried H6817 unto the LORD H3068 L-EDS , and the priests H3548 sounded H2690 with the trumpets H2689 .
Then the men H376 NMS of Judah H3063 gave a shout H7321 W-VHY3MP : and as the men H376 NMS of Judah H3063 shouted H7321 , it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS , that God H430 smote H5062 Jeroboam H3379 and all H3605 W-CMS Israel H3478 before H6440 L-CMP Abijah H29 and Judah H3063 .
And Abijah H29 and his people H5971 slew H5221 W-VHY3MP them with a great H7227 AFS slaughter H4347 : so there fell down H5307 W-VQY3MP slain H2491 NMP of Israel H3478 five H2568 BFS hundred H3967 BFP thousand H505 W-BMS chosen H977 men H376 NMS .
Thus the children H1121 CMP of Israel H3478 were brought under H3665 at that H1931 time H6256 , and the children H1121 CMP of Judah H3063 prevailed H553 , because H3588 CONJ they relied H8172 upon H5921 PREP the LORD H3068 EDS God H430 CDP of their fathers H1 .
And Abijah H29 pursued H7291 W-VQY3MS after H310 PREP Jeroboam H3379 , and took H3920 cities H5892 GFP from H4480 M-PREP-3MS him , Bethel H1008 LFS with H854 the towns H1323 thereof , and Jeshanah H3466 with H854 the towns H1323 thereof , and Ephrain H6085 with the towns H1323 thereof .
Neither H3808 W-NPAR did Jeroboam H3379 recover H6113 strength H3581 again H5750 ADV in the days H3117 B-CMP of Abijah H29 : and the LORD H3068 EDS struck H5062 him , and he died H4191 W-VQY3MS .
But Abijah H29 waxed mighty H2388 , and married H5375 W-VQY3MS fourteen H702 MFS wives H802 GFP , and begot H3205 W-VHY3MS twenty H6242 and two H8147 sons H1121 NMP , and sixteen H8337 W-RFS daughters H1323 NFP .
And the rest H3499 of the acts H1697 CMP of Abijah H29 , and his ways H1870 , and his sayings H1697 W-CMP-3MS , [ are ] written H3789 in the story H4097 of the prophet H5030 Iddo H5714 .
