10 In the next generation Solomon had Rehoboam, who had Abijah, who had Asa, who had Jehoshaphat, 11 who had Jehoram, who had Ahaziah, who had Joash, 12 who had Amaziah, who had Azariah, who had Jotham, 13 who had Ahaz, who had Hezekiah, who had Manasseh, 14 who had Amon, who had Josiah. 15 Josiah's firstborn was Johanan, followed by Jehoiakim, then Zedekiah, and finally Shallum. 16 Jehoiakim's sons were Jeconiah (Jehoiachin) and Zedekiah.
