1 Kings 15:4-6

International Children’s Bible

⁴ Because the Lord had loved David, the Lord gave Abijam a kingdom in Jerusalem. And the Lord allowed him to have a son to be king after him. The Lord also kept Jerusalem safe. ⁵ David had always done what the Lord said was right. All his life he had always obeyed the Lord’s commands. There was only one time David did not obey the Lord. This was when he sinned against Uriah the Hittite.

⁶ Now there was war between Abijam and Jeroboam during Abijam’s lifetime.
