And the children of Israel fled before Judah: and God delivered them into their hand (13:16) And Abijah and his people slew them with a great slaughter: so there fell down slain of Israel five hundred thousand chosen men (13:17) 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 (13:18) And Abijah pursued after Jeroboam, and took cities from him, Bethel with the towns thereof, and Jeshanah with the towns thereof, and Ephrain with the towns thereof (13:19) Neither did Jeroboam recover strength again in the days of Abijah: and the Lord struck him, and he died (13:20) But Abijah waxed mighty, and married fourteen wives, and begat twenty and two sons, and sixteen daughters (13:21) And the rest of the acts of Abijah, and his ways, and his sayings, [are] written in the story of the prophet Iddo
(13:22)
