10 E a Zorá, e a Aijalom, e a Hebrom, que eram em Judá e em Benjamim, cidades fortes.

11 Fortificou também as fortalezas, e pôs nelas capitães, e alimentos, e vinho, e azeite;

12 E em todas as cidades, escudos e lanças. Fortificou-as pois em grande maneira, e Judá e Benjamim lhe estavam sujeitos.

13 E os sacerdotes e levitas que estavam em todo Israel, se juntaram a ele de todos seus termos.
