1 Kings 14:21 in Context — 1 Kings 14

19 Le reste des actions de Jéroboam, comment il fit la guerre et comment il régna, cela est écrit dans le livre des Chroniques des rois d’Israël.

20 Jéroboam régna vingt-deux ans, puis il se coucha avec ses pères. Et Nadab, son fils, régna à sa place.

21 Roboam, fils de Salomon, régna sur Juda. Il avait quarante et un ans lorsqu’il devint roi, et il régna dix-sept ans à Jérusalem, la ville que l’Éternel avait choisie sur toutes les tribus d’Israël pour y mettre son nom. Sa mère s’appelait Naama, l’Ammonite.

22 Juda fit ce qui est mal aux yeux de l’Éternel; et, par les péchés qu’ils commirent, ils excitèrent sa jalousie plus que ne l’avaient jamais fait leurs pères.

23 Ils se bâtirent, eux aussi, des hauts lieux avec des statues et des idoles sur toute colline élevée et sous tout arbre vert.
