11 Then he strengthened the fortifications and put commanders in them, along with supplies of food, oil, and wine.
12 In every city were shields and spears, and he made them very strong. Thus Judah and Benjamin remained his.
13 Now the priests and Levites throughout Israel presented themselves to him from all parts of their land,
