17 Ils donnèrent ainsi de la force au royaume de Juda, et affermirent Roboam, fils de Salomon, pendant trois ans; car ils marchèrent pendant trois ans dans la voie de David et de Salomon.
18 Roboam prit pour femme Mahalath, fille de Jerimoth, fils de David et d'Abichaïl, fille d'Eliab, fils d'Isaï.
19 Elle lui enfanta des fils: Jeusch, Schemaria et Zaham.
20 Après elle, il prit Maaca, fille d'Absalom. Elle lui enfanta Abija, Attaï, Ziza et Schelomith.
21 Roboam aimait Maaca, fille d'Absalom, plus que toutes ses femmes et ses concubines; car il eut dix-huit femmes et soixante concubines, et il engendra vingt-huit fils et soixante filles.
22 Roboam donna le premier rang à Abija, fils de Maaca, et l'établit chef parmi ses frères, car il voulait le faire roi.
23 Il agit avec habileté en dispersant tous ses fils dans toutes les contrées de Juda et de Benjamin, dans toutes les villes fortes; il leur fournit des vivres en abondance, et demanda pour eux une multitude de femmes.
