Now in the eighteenth year of king Jerobo´am began Abi´jah to reign over Judah.
And after her he took Ma´achah the daughter of Ab´salom; which bare him Abi´jah, and At´tai, and Ziza, and Shelo´mith.
Now the acts of Rehobo´am, first and last, are they not written in the book of Shemai´ah the prophet, and of Iddo the seer concerning genealogies? And there were wars between Rehobo´am and Jerobo´am continually.
And Rehobo´am slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David: and Abi´jah his son reigned in his stead.
