Abijah And Civil War

18 Thus were the sons of Israel subdued at that time, - and the sons of Judah prevailed, because they leaned upon Yahweh the God of their fathers. 19 And Abijah pursued after Jeroboam, and captured from him, cities, even Bethel, with the villages thereof, and Jeshanah, with the villages thereof, - and Ephron, with the villages thereof; 20 neither was Jeroboam strong any more, in the days of Abijah, - and Yahweh smote him that he died.
