2 Chronicles 12:11-13

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹¹ And when the king entered into the house of the Lord, the shieldbearers came and took them, and brought them back again to their armoury.

¹² But yet because they were humbled, the wrath of the Lord turned away from them, and they were not utterly destroyed: for even in Juda there were found good works.

¹³ King Roboam therefore was strengthened in Jerusalem, and reigned: he was one and forty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city which the Lord chose out of all the tribes of Israel, to establish his name there: and the name of his mother was Naama an Ammonitess.
