1 Kings 11:23-25

Holman Christian Standard Bible

²³ God raised up Rezon son of Eliada as an enemy^(A) against Solomon. Rezon had fled from his master Hadadezer king of Zobah^{(B) 24} and gathered men to himself. He became captain of a raiding party when David killed the Zobaites. He^[a] went to Damascus,^(C) lived there, and became king in Damascus. ²⁵ Rezon was Israel’s enemy throughout Solomon’s reign, adding to the trouble Hadad had caused. He ruled over Aram,^[b](D) but he loathed Israel.
