2 Chronicles 11:5-12 - Rehoboam Fortifies Cities In Judah

5 And Rehoboam dwelt in Jerusalem, - and built cities for defence, in Judah; 6 yea he built Bethlehem and Etam, and Tekoa; 7 and Beth-zur and Soco, and Adullam; 8 and Gath and Mareshah, and Ziph; 9 and Adoraim and Lachish, and Azekah; 10 and Zorah, and Aijalon and Hebron, which are in Judah and Benjamin, - as fortified cities. 11 And he strengthened the fortified places, - and put therein captains, and stores of food, and oil and wine; 12 and, in every several city, shields and spears, and made them exceedingly strong, - thus Judah and Benjamin remained his.
