Chapter 13
Nowe
in
the
eighteenth
yeere
of
king
Ieroboam,
began
Abiiah
to
reigne
ouer
Iudah.
2
He
reigned
three
yeres
in
Ierusalem:
(his
mothers
name
also
was
Michaiah
the
daughter
of
Uriel
of
Gibea:)
and
there
was
warre
between
Abiiah
and
Ieroboam.
3
And
Abiiah
set
the
battel
in
aray
with
an
army
of
valiant
men
of
warre,
euen
foure
hundred
thousand
chosen
men:
Ieroboam
also
set
the
battell
in
aray
against
him
with
eight
hundred
thousand
chosen
men,
being
mightie
men
of
valour.
4
And
Abiiah
stood
vp
vpon
mount
Zemaraim,
which
is
in
mount
Ephraim,
and
sayde,
Heare
mee
thou
Ieroboam,
and
all
Israel:
5
Ought
you
not
to
know,
that
the
Lord
God
of
Israel
gaue
the
kingdome
ouer
Israel
to
Dauid
for
euer,
euen
to
him
and
to
his
sonnes
by
a
couenant
of
salt?
6
Yet
Ieroboam
the
sonne
of
Nebat,
the
seruant
of
Solomon
the
sonne
of
Dauid,
is
risen
vp,
and
hath
rebelled
against
his
Lord.
7
And
there
are
gathered
vnto
him
vaine
men
the
children
of
Belial,
and
haue
strengthened
themselues
against
Rehoboam
the
sonne
of
Solomon,
when
Rehoboam
was
young,
&
tender
hearted,
and
could
not
withstand
them.
8
And
now
ye
thinke
to
withstand
the
kingdome
of
the
Lord,
in
the
hand
of
the
sonnes
of
Dauid,
and
ye
be
a
great
multitude,
and
there
are
with
you
golden
calues,
which
Ieroboam
made
you
for
gods.
9
Haue
yee
not
cast
out
the
Priests
of
the
Lord
the
sonnes
of
Aaron,
and
the
Leuites,
and
haue
made
you
priests
after
the
maner
of
the
nations
of
other
lands?
so
that
whosoeuer
commeth
to
consecrate
himselfe
with
a
young
bullocke
and
seuen
rammes,
the
same
may
be
a
priest
of
them
that
are
no
gods.
10
But
as
for
vs,
the
Lord
is
our
God,
and
wee
haue
not
forsaken
him,
and
the
Priests
which
minister
vnto
the
Lord,
are
the
sonnes
of
Aaron,
and
the
Leuites
waite
vpon
their
businesse.
11
And
they
burne
vnto
the
Lord
euery
morning,
and
euery
euening,
burnt
sacrifices
and
sweete
incense:
the
shew
-bread
also
set
they
in
order
vpon
the
pure
table,
and
the
Candlesticke
of
golde
with
the
lampes
therof,
to
burne
euery
euening:
for
we
keepe
the
charge
of
the
Lord
our
God,
but
yee
haue
forsaken
him.
12
And
behold,
God
himselfe
is
with
vs
for
our
captaine,
and
his
Priests
with
sounding
trumpets
to
cry
alarme
against
you:
O
children
of
Israel,
fight
ye
not
against
the
Lord
God
of
your
fathers,
for
you
shall
not
prosper.
13
But
Ieroboam
caused
an
ambushment
to
come
about
behinde
them:
so
they
were
before
Iudah,
and
the
ambushment
was
behind
them.
14
And
when
Iudah
looked
backe,
behold,
the
battel
was
before
and
behind;
and
they
cried
vnto
the
Lord,
and
the
Priests
sounded
with
the
trumpets.
15
Then
the
men
of
Iudah
gaue
a
shout:
and
as
the
men
of
Iudah
shouted,
it
came
to
passe
that
God
smote
Ieroboam
and
all
Israel,
before
Abiiah
and
Iudah.
16
And
the
children
of
Israel
fled
before
Iudah:
and
God
deliuered
them
into
their
hand.
17
And
Abiiah
and
his
people
slew
them
with
a
great
slaughter:
so
there
fel
downe
slaine
of
Israel,
fiue
hundred
thousand
chosen
men.
18
Thus
the
children
of
Israel
were
brought
vnder
at
that
time,
and
the
children
of
Iudah
preuailed,
because
they
relied
vpon
the
Lord
God
of
their
fathers.
19
And
Abiiah
pursued
after
Ieroboam,
&
tooke
cities
from
him,
Beth-el
with
the
townes
thereof,
and
Ieshanah
with
the
townes
thereof,
and
Ephrain
with
the
townes
thereof.
20
Neither
did
Ieroboam
recouer
strength
againe
in
the
dayes
of
Abiiah:
and
the
Lord
strooke
him,
&
he
died.
21
But
Abiiah
waxed
mighty,
and
married
fourteene
wiues,
and
begate
twentie
and
two
sonnes,
and
sixteene
daughters.
22
And
the
rest
of
the
acts
of
Abiiah,
and
his
waies,
and
his
sayings,
are
written
in
the
story
of
the
Prophet
Iddo.
