4 Thus saith Hashem, Ye shall not go up, nor make war against your achim. Shuvu (return) every ish to his bais, for this thing is done from Me. And they obeyed the divrei Hashem, and returned back from going against Yarov'am.
5 And Rechav'am dwelt in Yerushalayim, and built arim lematzor (cities for defense) in Yehudah.
6 He built even Beit-Lechem, and Eitam, and Tekoa,
7 Bei-Tzur, Socho, Adulam,
8 Gat, Mareshah, Ziph,
9 And Adorayim, and Lachish, and Azekah,
10 And Tzorah, and Ayalon, and Chevron, which are in Yehudah and in Binyamin arei metzurot (fortified cities).
