## 2 Chronicles 11:12-13 in Context (Verses 9–16 KJV)
 
 [9 ](/kjv/2-chronicles/11/9) And Adoraim, and Lachish, and Azekah,
 
 [10 ](/kjv/2-chronicles/11/10) And Zorah, and Aijalon, and Hebron, which *are* in Judah and in Benjamin fenced cities.
 
 [11 ](/kjv/2-chronicles/11/11) And he fortified the strong holds, and put captains in them, and store of victual, and of oil and wine.
 
 [12 ](/kjv/2-chronicles/11/12) And in every several city *he put* shields and spears, and made them exceeding strong, having Judah and Benjamin on his side.
 
 [13 ](/kjv/2-chronicles/11/13) ¶ And the priests and the Levites that *were* in all Israel resorted to him out of all their coasts.*
 
 [14 ](/kjv/2-chronicles/11/14) For the Levites left their suburbs and their possession, and came to Judah and Jerusalem: for Jeroboam and his sons had cast them off from executing the priest’s office unto the LORD:
 
 [15 ](/kjv/2-chronicles/11/15) And he ordained him priests for the high places, and for the devils, and for the calves which he had made.
 
 [16 ](/kjv/2-chronicles/11/16) And after them out of all the tribes of Israel such as set their hearts to seek the LORD God of Israel came to Jerusalem, to sacrifice unto the LORD God of their fathers.
