2 Chronicles 12:14-16
EasyEnglish Bible
14 Rehoboam did wicked things because he did not want to serve the Lord faithfully.
15 All the things that happened while Rehoboam was king of Judah are written in some books. The prophet Shemaiah and the prophet Iddo wrote those things in their books. The books include lists of the ancestors of Rehoboam's family. Rehoboam and Jeroboam fought wars against each other all the time.
16 Rehoboam died and they buried him beside his ancestors in the City of David. His son Abijah became king after him.[a]

2 Chronicles 12:14-16
New International Version
14 He did evil because he had not set his heart on seeking the Lord.
15 As for the events of Rehoboam’s reign, from beginning to end, are they not written in the records of Shemaiah(A) the prophet and of Iddo the seer that deal with genealogies? There was continual warfare between Rehoboam and Jeroboam. 16 Rehoboam(B) rested with his ancestors and was buried in the City of David. And Abijah(C) his son succeeded him as king.
