2Chr 13:2 He reigned three years in Jerusalem. His mother's name also was Michaiah the daughter of Uriel of Gibeah. And there was war between Abijah and Jeroboam.

ויאס֨ר אבי֜ה את־המלחמ֗ה בח֙יל֙ גבור֣י מלחמ֔ה ארבע־מא֥ות א֖לף א֣יש בח֑ור וירבע֗ם ער֤ך עמו֙ מלחמ֔ה בשמונ֨ה מא֥ות א֛לף א֥יש בח֖ור גב֥ור חֽיל׃

2Chr 13:3 And Abijah set the battle in array with an army of valiant men of war, even four hundred thousand chosen men: Jeroboam also set the battle in array against him with eight hundred thousand chosen men, being mighty men of valour.

וי֣קם אבי֗ה מעל֙ לה֣ר צמר֔ים אש֖ר בה֣ר אפר֑ים וי֕אמר שמע֖וני ירבע֥ם וכל־ישראֽל׃

2Chr 13:4 And Abijah stood up upon mount Zemaraim, which is in mount Ephraim, and said, Hear me, thou Jeroboam, and all Israel;

הל֤א לכם֙ לד֔עת כ֞י יהו֣ה׀ אלה֣י ישרא֗ל נת֨ן ממלכ֧ה לדו֛יד על־ישרא֖ל לעול֑ם ל֥ו ולבנ֖יו בר֥ית מֽלח׃

2Chr 13:5 Ought ye not to know that the LORD God of Israel gave the kingdom over Israel to David for ever, even to him and to his sons by a covenant of salt?

וי֙קם֙ ירבע֣ם בן־נב֔ט ע֖בד שלמ֣ה בן־דו֑יד וימר֖ד על־אדנֽיו׃

2Chr 13:6 Yet Jeroboam the son of Nebat, the servant of Solomon the son of David, is risen up, and hath rebelled against his lord.

ויקבצ֣ו על֗יו אנש֤ים רקים֙ בנ֣י בלי֔על ויֽתאמצ֖ו על־רחבע֣ם בן־שלמ֑ה ורחבע֗ם ה֤יה נ֙ער֙ ורך־לב֔ב ול֥א התחז֖ק לפניהֽם׃

2Chr 13:7 And there are gathered unto him vain men, the children of Belial, and have strengthened themselves against Rehoboam the son of Solomon, when Rehoboam was young and tenderhearted, and could not withstand them.

ועת֣ה׀ את֣ם אֽמר֗ים להתחזק֙ לפני֙ ממל֣כת יהו֔ה בי֖ד בנ֣י דו֑יד ואתם֙ המ֣ון ר֔ב ועמכם֙ עגל֣י זה֔ב אש֨ר עש֥ה לכ֛ם ירבע֖ם לאלהֽים׃

2Chr 13:8 And now ye think to withstand the kingdom of the LORD in the hand of the sons of David; and ye be a great multitude, and there are with your golden calves, which Jeroboam made you for gods.

הל֤א הדחתם֙ את־כהנ֣י יהו֔ה את־בנ֥י אהר֖ן והלוי֑ם ותעש֨ו לכ֤ם כהנים֙ כעמ֣י הארצ֔ות כל־הב֗א למל֨א יד֜ו בפ֤ר בן־בקר֙ ואיל֣ם שבע֔ה והי֥ה כה֖ן לל֥א אלהֽים׃

2Chr 13:9 Have ye not cast out the priests of the LORD, the sons of Aaron, and the Levites, and have made you priests after the manner of the nations of other lands? so that whosoever cometh to consecrate himself with a young bullock and seven rams, the same may be a priest of them that are no gods.

ואנ֛חנו יהו֥ה אלה֖ינו ול֣א עזבנ֑הו וכ֨הנ֜ים משרת֤ים לֽיהוה֙ בנ֣י אהר֔ן והלוי֖ם במלֽאכת׃

2Chr 13:10 But as for us, the LORD is our God, and we have not forsaken him; and the priests, which minister unto the LORD, are the sons of Aaron, and the Levites wait upon their business:

ומקטר֣ים ליהו֡ה על֣ות בבֽקר־בב֣קר ובעֽרב־בע֣רב וקטֽרת־סמים֩ ומער֨כת ל֜חם על־השלח֣ן הטה֗ור ומנור֨ת הזה֤ב ונרת֙יה֙ לבער֙ בע֣רב בע֔רב כֽי־שמר֣ים אנ֔חנו את־משמ֖רת יהו֣ה אלה֑ינו ואת֖ם עזבת֥ם אתֽו׃

2Chr 13:11 And they burn unto the LORD every morning and every evening burnt sacrifices and sweet incense: the shewbread also set they in order upon the pure table; and the candlestick of gold with the lamps thereof, to burn every evening: for we keep the charge of the LORD our God; but ye have forsaken him.

והנה֩ עמ֨נו בר֜אש האלה֧ים׀ וכהנ֛יו וחצצר֥ות התרוע֖ה להר֣יע עליכ֑ם בנ֣י ישרא֗ל אל־תלֽחמ֛ו עם־יהו֥ה אלהֽי־אבתיכ֖ם כי־ל֥א תצלֽיחו׃

2Chr 13:12 And, behold, God himself is with us for our captain, and his priests with sounding trumpets to cry alarm against you. O children of Israel, fight ye not against the LORD God of your fathers; for ye shall not prosper.

ויֽרבע֗ם הסב֙ את־המאר֔ב לב֖וא מֽאחריה֑ם ויֽהיו֙ לפנ֣י יהוד֔ה והמאר֖ב מאחריהֽם׃

2Chr 13:13 But Jeroboam caused an ambushment to come about behind them: so they were before Judah, and the ambushment was behind them.

ויפנ֣ו יהוד֗ה והנ֨ה לה֤ם המלחמה֙ פנ֣ים ואח֔ור וֽיצעק֖ו ליהו֑ה והכ֣הנ֔ים מחצר֖ים בחצצרֽות׃

2Chr 13:14 And when Judah looked back, behold, the battle was before and behind: and they cried unto the LORD, and the priests sounded with the trumpets.

ויר֖יעו א֣יש יהוד֑ה ויה֗י בהר֙יע֙ א֣יש יהוד֔ה והאלה֗ים נג֤ף את־יֽרבעם֙ וכל־ישרא֔ל לפנ֥י אבי֖ה ויהודֽה׃

2Chr 13:15 Then the men of Judah gave a shout: and as the men of Judah shouted, it came to pass, that God smote Jeroboam and all Israel before Abijah and Judah.

וינ֥וסו בני־ישרא֖ל מפנ֣י יהוד֑ה ויתנ֥ם אלה֖ים בידֽם׃

2Chr 13:16 And the children of Israel fled before Judah: and God delivered them into their hand.

ויכ֥ו בה֛ם אבי֥ה ועמ֖ו מכ֣ה רב֑ה ויפל֤ו חללים֙ מישרא֔ל חמש־מא֥ות א֖לף א֥יש בחֽור׃

2Chr 13:17 And Abijah and his people slew them with a great slaughter: so there fell down slain of Israel five hundred thousand chosen men.

ויכנע֥ו בני־ישרא֖ל בע֣ת הה֑יא ויֽאמצו֙ בנ֣י יהוד֔ה כ֣י נשענ֔ו על־יהו֖ה אלה֥י אבותיהֽם׃

2Chr 13:18 Thus the children of Israel were brought under at that time, and the children of Judah prevailed, because they relied upon the LORD God of their fathers.

וירד֣ף וירד֣ף אביה֘ אביה֘ אחר֣י אחר֣י ירבעם֒ ירבעם֒ וילכ֤ד וילכ֤ד ממ֙נו֙ ממ֙נו֙ ער֔ים ער֔ים את־את־בֽית־בֽית־אל֙ אל֙ ואת־ואת־בנות֔יה בנות֔יה ואת־ואת־ישנ֖ה ישנ֖ה ואת־ואת־בנות֑יה בנות֑יה ואת־עפר֖ין ובנתֽיה׃ עפר֖ין ובנתֽיה׃

2Chr 13:19 And Abijah pursued after Jeroboam, and took cities from him, Bethel with the towns thereof, and Jeshanah with the towns thereof, and Ephraim with the towns thereof.

ולֽא־עצ֧ר כֽח־ירבע֛ם ע֖וד בימ֣י אבי֑הו ויגפ֥הו יהו֖ה וימֽת׃

2Chr 13:20 Neither did Jeroboam recover strength again in the days of Abijah: and the LORD struck him, and he died.

ויתחז֣ק אבי֔הו וי֨שא־ל֔ו נש֖ים ארב֣ע עשר֑ה וי֗ולד עשר֤ים ושנ֙ים֙ בנ֔ים וש֥ש עשר֖ה בנֽות׃

2Chr 13:21 But Abijah waxed mighty, and married fourteen wives, and begat twenty and two sons, and sixteen daughters.

וי֙תר֙ דבר֣י אבי֔ה ודרכ֖יו ודבר֑יו כתוב֕ים במדר֖ש הנב֥יא עדֽו׃

2Chr 13:22 And the rest of the acts of Abijah, and his ways, and his sayings, are written in the story of the prophet Iddo.

וישכ֨ב אבי֜ה עם־אבת֗יו ויקבר֤ו אתו֙ בע֣יר דו֔יד וימל֛ך אס֥א בנ֖ו תחת֑יו בימ֛יו שקט֥ה הא֖רץ ע֥שר שנֽים׃

2Chr 13:23 [KJV 14:1] So Abijah slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David: and Asa his son reigned in his stead. In his days the land was quiet ten years.
