1 Kings 14:23 in Context — 1 Kings 14

21 E Roboão filho de Salomão reinou em Judá. De quarenta e um anos era Roboão quando começou a reinar, e dezessete anos reinou em Jerusalém, cidade que o SENHOR elegeu de todas as tribos de Israel para pôr ali seu nome. O nome de sua mãe foi Naamá, amonita.

22 E Judá fez o que era mau aos olhos do SENHOR, e iraram-lhe mais que tudo o que seus pais haviam feito em seus pecados que cometeram.

23 Porque eles também se edificaram altos, estátuas, e bosques, em todo morro alto, e debaixo de toda árvore frondosa:

24 E havia também sodomitas na terra, e fizeram conforme a todas as abominações das nações que o SENHOR havia lançado diante dos filhos de Israel.

25 Ao quinto ano do rei Roboão subiu Sisaque rei do Egito contra Jerusalém.
