1 Kings 14:21-23
1599 Geneva Bible
21 ¶ Also Rehoboam the son of Solomon reigned in Judah. Rehoboam was one and forty years old, when he began to reign, and reigned seventeen [a]years in Jerusalem, the city which the Lord did choose out of all the tribes of Israel, to put his name there: and his mother’s name was Naamah an Ammonite.
22 And Judah wrought wickedness in the sight of the Lord: and they provoked him more with their sins, which they had committed, [b]than all that which their fathers had done.
23 For they also made them high places, and images, and groves on every high hill, and under every green tree.
