In context
19Abijah pursued Jeroboam and took towns from him: Bethel with its villages, Jeshanah with its villages, and Ephrain with its villages. 20Jeroboam never recovered his strength in the days of Abijah; and Yahweh struck him down, and he died. 21But Abijah grew strong. He took fourteen wives, and fathered twenty-two sons and sixteen daughters. 22What else Abijah did, his conduct and his words, stands written in the commentary of the prophet Iddo. 23Abijah lay down with his ancestors and they buried him in the City of David, and Asa his son became king in his place. In his days the land was quiet for ten years.
