2 Chronicles 11:12-14

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹² And in each city he put shields and spears, and made them very strong. So he held Judah and Benjamin.

¹³ And the priests and the Levites who were in all Israel came over to Rehoboam from wherever they lived.

¹⁴ For the Levites left their suburbs and their possessions and came to Judah and Jerusalem, for Jeroboam and his sons had cast them out from executing the priest’s office to the Lord.
