2 Chronicles 11:21-23

Living Bible

²¹ He loved Maacah more than any of his other wives and concubines (he had eighteen wives and sixty concubines—with twenty-eight sons and sixty daughters). ²² Maacah’s son Abijah was his favorite, and he intended to make him the next king. ²³ He very wisely scattered his other sons in the fortified cities throughout the land of Judah and Benjamin, and gave them large allowances and arranged for them to have several wives apiece.
