IN THE eighteenth year of King Jeroboam, Abijah began to reign over Judah.
And after her he took Maacah daughter [granddaughter] of Absalom, who bore him Abijah, Attai, Ziza, and Shelomith.
Now the acts of Rehoboam, from first to last, are they not written in the histories of Shemaiah the prophet and of Iddo the seer regarding genealogies? There were wars between Rehoboam of Judah and Jeroboam of Israel continually.
And Rehoboam slept with his fathers and was buried in the City of David; and Abijah his son reigned in his stead.
