In the 18th year of King Jeroboam, Abijah began to reign over Judah.
After her he took Maacah the daughter of Absalom and she bore him Abijah, Attai, Ziza and Shelomith.
Now the acts of Rehoboam, from beginning to end, are they not written in the chronicles of Shemaiah the prophet and of Iddo the seer for genealogies? There were continuous wars between Rehoboam and Jeroboam.
Then Rehoboam slept with his fathers and was buried in the city of David. Then his son Abijah became king in his place.
