Rehoboam's Reign
21Meanwhile, Rehoboam son of Solomon was king in Judah. He was forty-one years old when he became king, and he ruled for seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city the Lord had chosen from all the tribes of Israel to put his Name there. The name of Rehoboam's mother was Na'amah the Ammonite.
22Judah did evil in the eyes of the Lord, and they provoked him to anger more than all their fathers had done with the sins that they committed.
