13 King Rehoboam strengthened his position in Jerusalem and ruled. He was 41 years old when he began to rule. He ruled for 17 years in Jerusalem, the city that the LORD chose from all the tribes of Israel, the city where the LORD put his name. (Rehoboam's mother was an Ammonite woman named Naamah.) 14 He did evil things because he was not serious about dedicating himself to serving the LORD. 2 Chronicles 12:13-14, God's Word Translation.
