The Family of Rehoboam
18 Rehoboam took as his wife Mahalath, who was the daughter[a] of David’s son Jerimoth and of Abihail, the daughter of Jesse’s son Eliab. 19 She gave birth to these sons for him: Jeush, Shemariah, and Zaham.
20 In addition to her, he took Ma’akah, the granddaughter[b] of Absalom. She gave birth for him to Abijah, Attai, Ziza, and Shelomith.

- 2 Chronicles 11:18 The translation follows the Hebrew reading in the margin (qere). Many Hebrew manuscripts read son.
- 2 Chronicles 11:20 Literally daughter of Absalom. Data in 2 Chronicles 13:2 suggests that Ma’akah was Absalom’s granddaughter rather than his daughter.
