  13:1 ¶
In the eighteenth year of the reign of Jeroboam Abia began to reign over Judah{gr.Juda}. |
|
13:1 ¶
Now in the eighteenth°°
year°
of king°
Jeroboam°
began Abijah°
to reign°°
over°
Judah.° |
|
13:2
He reigned three years in Jerusalem. And his mother's name [was] Maachah{gr.Maacha}, daughter of Uriel of Gibeon{gr.Gabaon}. And there was war between Abia and Jeroboam. |
|
13:2
He reigned°°
three°
years°
in Jerusalem.°
His mother's°
name°
also [was] Michaiah°
the daughter°
of Uriel°
of°
Gibeah.°
And there was°
war°
between°
Abijah°
and Jeroboam.° |
|
13:3
And Abia set the battle in array with an army, with mighty men of war, [even] four hundred thousand mighty men: and Jeroboam set the battle in array against him with eight hundred thousand, [they were] mighty warriors of the host. |
|
13:3
And Abijah°
set°°°
the battle°
in array°°
with an army°
of valiant men°
of war,°
[even] four°
hundred°
thousand°
chosen°°
men:°
Jeroboam°
also set the battle°
in array°°°
against°
him with eight°
hundred°
thousand°
chosen°°
men,°
[being] mighty men°
of valour.° |
|
13:4 ¶
And Abia rose up from the mount Somoron, which is in mount Ephraim, and said, Hear ye, Jeroboam, and all Israel: |
|
13:4 ¶
And Abijah°
stood up°°
upon°°
mount°
Zemaraim,°
which°
[is] in mount°
Ephraim,°
and said,°°
Hear°°
me, thou Jeroboam,°
and all°
Israel;° |
|
13:5
[Is it] not for you to know that the Lord God of Israel has given a king over Israel for ever to David, and to his sons, by a covenant of salt? |
|
13:5
Ought ye not°
to know°°
that°
Yahweh°
Elohim°
of Israel°
gave°°
the kingdom°
over°
Israel°
to David°
for ever,°
[even] to him and to his sons°
by a covenant°
of salt?° |
|
13:6
But Jeroboam the [son] of Nebat{gr.Nabat}, the servant of Solomon [the son] of David, is risen up, and has revolted from his master: |
|
13:6
Yet Jeroboam°
the son°
of Nebat,°
the servant°
of Solomon°
the son°
of David,°
is risen up,°°
and hath rebelled°°
against°
his adon.° |
|
13:7
and there are gathered to him pestilent men, transgressors, and he has risen up against Rehoboam{gr.Roboam} the [son] of Solomon, while Rehoboam{gr.Roboam} was young and fearful in heart, and he withstood him not. |
|
13:7
And there are gathered°°
unto°
him vain°
men,°°
the children°
of Belial,°
and have strengthened°°
themselves°
against°
Rehoboam°
the son°
of Solomon,°
when Rehoboam°
was°
young°
and tenderhearted,°°
and could not°
withstand°°°
them.° |
|
13:8
And now ye profess to resist the kingdom of the Lord in the hand of the sons of David; and ye [are] a great multitude, and with you are golden calves, which Jeroboam made you for gods. |
|
13:8
And now°
ye°
think°°
to withstand°°
the kingdom°°
of Yahweh°
in the hand°
of the sons°
of David;°
and ye°
[be] a great°
multitude,°
and [there are] with°
you golden°
calves,°
which°
Jeroboam°
made°°
you for elohim.° |
|
13:9
Did ye not cast out the priests of the Lord, the sons of Aaron, and the Levites, and make to yourselves priests of the people of any [other] land? whoever came to consecrate himself with a calf of the herd and seven rams, he forthwith became a priest to that which is no god. |
|
13:9
Have ye not°
cast out°°°
the priests°
of Yahweh,°°
the sons°
of Aaron,°
and the Levites,°
and have made°°
you priests°
after the manner of the nations°
of [other] lands?°
so that whosoever°
cometh°°
to consecrate°°°
himself with a young°°
bullock°
and seven°
rams,°
[the same] may be°
a priest°
of [them that are] no°
elohim.° |
|
13:10
But we have not forsaken the Lord our God, and his priests, the sons of Aaron, and the Levites, minister to the Lord; and in their daily courses |
|
13:10
But as for us,°
Yahweh°
[is] our Elohim,°
and we have not°
forsaken°°
him; and the priests,°
which minister°°
unto Yahweh,°
[are] the sons°
of Aaron,°
and the Levites°
[wait] upon [their] business:° |
|
13:11
they sacrifice to the Lord whole-burnt-offering, morning and evening, and compound incense, and [set] the shewbread on the pure table; and [there is] the golden candlestick, and the lamps for burning, to light in the evening: for we keep the charge of the Lord God of our fathers; but ye have forsaken him. |
|
13:11
And they burn°°
unto Yahweh°
every morning°
and every evening°
burnt sacrifices°
and sweet°
incense:°
the shewbread°°
also [set they in order] upon°
the pure°
table;°
and the candlestick°
of gold°
with the lamps°
thereof, to burn°°
every evening:°
for°
we°
keep°°°
the charge°
of Yahweh°
our Elohim;°
but ye°
have forsaken°°
him. |
|
13:12
And, behold, the Lord and his priests are with us at our head, and the signal trumpets to sound an alarm over us. Children of Israel, fight not against the Lord God of our fathers; for ye shall not prosper. |
|
13:12
And, behold,°
Elohim°
himself [is] with°
us for [our] captain,°
and his priests°
with sounding°
trumpets°
to cry alarm°°
against°
you. O children°
of Israel,°
fight°°
ye not°
against°
Yahweh°
Elohim°
of your fathers;°
for°
ye shall not°
prosper.°° |
|
13:13 ¶
Now Jeroboam had caused an ambush to come round upon him from behind: and he [himself] was before Judah{gr.Juda}, and the ambush behind. |
|
13:13 ¶
But Jeroboam°
caused°°
an ambushment°
to come°°
about°°°
behind°°
them: so they were°
before°
Judah,°
and the ambushment°
[was] behind°°
them. |
|
13:14
And Judah{gr.Juda} looked back, and, behold, the battle [was] against them before and behind: and they cried to the Lord, and the priests sounded with the trumpets. |
|
13:14
And when Judah°
looked back,°°
behold,°
the battle°
[was] before°
and behind:°
and they cried°°
unto Yahweh,°
and the priests°
sounded°°°°
with the trumpets.° |
|
13:15
And the men of Judah{gr.Juda} shouted: and it came to pass, when the men of Judah{gr.Juda} shouted, that the Lord smote Jeroboam and Israel before Abia and Judah{gr.Juda}. |
|
13:15
Then the men°
of Judah°
gave a shout:°°
and as the men°
of Judah°
shouted,°°
it came to pass,°
that Elohim°
smote°°°
Jeroboam°
and all°
Israel°
before°
Abijah°
and Judah.° |
|
13:16
And the children of Israel fled from before Judah{gr.Juda}; and the Lord delivered them into their hands. |
|
13:16
And the children°
of Israel°
fled°°
before°°
Judah:°
and Elohim°
delivered°°
them into their hand.° |
|
13:17
And Abia and his people smote them with a great slaughter: and there fell slain of Israel five hundred thousand mighty men. |
|
13:17
And Abijah°
and his people°
slew°°
them with a great°
slaughter:°
so there fell down°°
slain°
of Israel°°
five°
hundred°
thousand°
chosen°°
men.° |
|
13:18
So the children of Israel were brought low in that day, and the children of Judah{gr.Juda} prevailed, because they trusted on the Lord God of their fathers. |
|
13:18
Thus the children°
of Israel°
were brought°°
under°
at that°
time,°
and the children°
of Judah°
prevailed,°°
because°
they relied°°
upon°
Yahweh°
Elohim°
of their fathers.° |
|
13:19
And Abia pursued after Jeroboam, and he took from him the cities, Bethel{gr.Baethel} and her towns, and Jesyna and her towns, and Ephron and her towns. |
|
13:19
And Abijah°
pursued°°
after°
Jeroboam,°
and took°°
cities°
from°
him,°
Bethel°
with°
the towns°
thereof, and Jeshanah°
with°
the towns°
thereof, and Ephrain°
with the towns°
thereof. |
|
13:20
And Jeroboam did not recover strength again all the days of Abia: and the Lord smote him, and he died. |
|
13:20
Neither°
did Jeroboam°
recover°°
strength°
again°
in the days°
of Abijah:°
and Yahweh°
struck°°
him, and he died.°° |
|
13:21 ¶
But Abia strengthened himself, and took to himself fourteen wives, and he begot twenty-two sons, and sixteen daughters. |
|
13:21 ¶
But Abijah°
waxed mighty,°°
and married°°
fourteen°°
wives,°
and begat°°
twenty°
and two°
sons,°
and sixteen°°
daughters.° |
|
13:22
And the rest of the acts of Abia, and his deeds, and his sayings, are written in the book of the prophet Addo. |
|
13:22
And the rest°
of the acts°
of Abijah,°
and his ways,°
and his sayings,°
[are] written°°
in the story°
of the prophet°
Iddo.° |
