And Solomon's son was Rehoboam, Abia his son, Asa his son, Jehoshaphat his son,

אֲבִיָּ֥ה 'a.vi.Yah “Abijah”

And after her he took Maachah the daughter of Absalom; who bore him Abijah, and Attai, and Ziza, and Shelomith.

אֲבִיָּה֙ 'a.vi.Yah “Abijah”

And Rehoboam made Abijah the son of Maachah the chief, to be ruler among his brethren: for he thought to make him king.

אֲבִיָּ֥ה 'a.vi.Yah “Abijah”

And Rehoboam slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David: and Abijah his son reigned in his stead.

אֲבִיָּ֥ה 'a.vi.Yah “Abijah”

Now in the eighteenth year of king Jeroboam began Abijah to reign over Judah.

אֲבִיָּ֖ה 'a.vi.Yah “Abijah”

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.

אֲבִיָּ֖ה 'a.vi.Yah “Abijah”

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 valor.

אֲבִיָּ֜ה 'a.vi.Yah “Abijah”

And Abijah stood upon mount Zemaraim, which is in mount Ephraim, and said, Hear me, thou Jeroboam, and all Israel;

אֲבִיָּ֗ה 'a.vi.Yah “Abijah”

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.

אֲבִיָּ֖ה 'a.vi.Yah “Abijah”

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

אֲבִיָּ֥ה 'a.vi.Yah “Abijah”

And Abijah pursued Jeroboam, and took cities from him, Beth-el with its towns, and Jeshanah with its towns, and Ephron with its towns.

אֲבִיָּה֮ 'a.vi.Yah “Abijah”

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

אֲבִיָּ֑הוּ 'a.vi.Ya.hu “Abijah”

But Abijah became mighty, and married fourteen wives, and begat twenty and two sons, and sixteen daughters.

אֲבִיָּ֔הוּ 'a.vi.Ya.hu “Abijah”

And the rest of the acts of Abijah, and his ways, and his sayings, are written in the story of the prophet Iddo.

אֲבִיָּ֔ה 'a.vi.Yah “Abijah”

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.
