17 Abijah and his people defeated them with a great slaughter, so that 500,000 chosen men of Israel fell slain.
18 Thus the sons of Israel were subdued at that time, and the sons of Judah conquered because they trusted in the Lord, the God of their fathers.
19 Abijah pursued Jeroboam and captured from him several cities, Bethel with its villages, Jeshanah with its villages and Ephron with its villages.
20 Jeroboam did not again recover strength in the days of Abijah; and the Lord struck him and he died.
21 But Abijah became powerful; and took fourteen wives to himself, and became the father of twenty-two sons and sixteen daughters.
22 Now the rest of the acts of Abijah, and his ways and his words are written in the treatise of the prophet Iddo.
