4Nevertheless for David`s sake did Yahweh his God give him a lamp in Jerusalem, to set up his son after him, and to establish Jerusalem;
5because David did that which was right in the eyes of Yahweh, and didn`t turn aside from anything that he commanded him all the days of his life, except only in the matter of Uriah the Hittite.
6Now there was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all the days of his life.
7The rest of the acts of Abijam, and all that he did, aren`t they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah? There was war between Abijam and Jeroboam.
8Abijam slept with his fathers; and they buried him in the city of David: and Asa his son reigned in his place.
9In the twentieth year of Jeroboam king of Israel began Asa to reign over Judah.
10Forty-one years reigned he in Jerusalem: and his mother`s name was Maacah the daughter of Abishalom.
