2 Chronicles 12:12-14

English Standard Version

¹² And when ^(A)he humbled himself the wrath of the Lord turned from him, so as not to make a complete destruction. Moreover, ^(B)conditions were good^[a] in Judah.

^13 (C)So King Rehoboam grew strong in Jerusalem and reigned. Rehoboam was forty-one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city that the Lord had chosen out of all the tribes of Israel to put his name there. His mother's name was Naamah the Ammonite. ¹⁴ And he did evil, ^(D)for he did not set his heart to seek the Lord.
