2 Chronicles 11:3-5

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³ Speak to Roboam the son of Solomon the king of Juda, and to all Israel, in Juda and Benjamin:

⁴ Thus saith the Lord: You shall not go up, nor fight against your brethren: let every man return to his own house, for by my will this thing has been done. And when they heard the word of the Lord, they returned, and did not go against Jeroboam,

⁵ And Roboam dwelt in Jerusalem, and built walled cities in Juda.
