The verse in its languages

Vulgate (Clementine)
Attamen bellum fuit inter Roboam et Jeroboam omni tempore vitæ ejus.
Septuagint (Swete)
The Septuagint has no verse matching this one here: it lacks the verse, or carries it elsewhere in its own order.
Hebrew (WLC)
וּמִלְחָמָ֨ה הָיְתָ֧ה בֵין רְחַבְעָ֛ם וּבֵ֥ין יָרָבְעָ֖ם כָּל יְמֵ֥י חַיָּֽיו

Haydock's commentary

Roboam. This had been remarked, chap. xiv. 30. (Haydock)

There was a domestic quarrel between the two families. (Calmet)

Some suspect that Roboam is placed to designate his successors, or that we ought to read, Abia. (Sanchez)

Castalion rashly ventures to alter the text. (Calmet)

Abiam gained a decisive victory over Jeroboam, ver. 7., and 2 Paralipomenon xiii. 3.
