14:011:008 And Gath, and Mareshah, and Ziph,
14:011:009 And Adoraim, and Lachish, and Azekah,
14:011:010 And Zorah, and Aijalon, and Hebron, which are in Judah and in
Benjamin fenced cities.
14:011:011 And he fortified the strong holds, and put captains in them,
and store of victual, and of oil and wine.
14:011:012 And in every several city he put shields and spears, and made
them exceeding strong, having Judah and Benjamin on his side.
14:011:013 And the priests and the Levites that were in all Israel
resorted to him out of all their coasts.
14:011:014 For the Levites left their suburbs and their possession, and came to Judah and Jerusalem: for Jeroboam and his sons had cast them off from executing the priest's office unto the LORD:
14:011:015 And he ordained him priests for the high places, and for the devils, and for the calves which he had made.
14:011:016 And after them out of all the tribes of Israel such as set
their hearts to seek the LORD God of Israel came to Jerusalem,
to sacrifice unto the LORD God of their fathers.
14:011:017 So they strengthened the kingdom of Judah, and made Rehoboam
the son of Solomon strong, three years: for three years they
walked in the way of David and Solomon.
