King James Version
And it cometh
to pass, at
the
establishing
of
the kingdom of
Rehoboam
, and at
his
strengthening
himself, he hath
forsaken
the law of Jehovah
, and all Israel with him.
And it came
to pass, when
Rehoboam
had
established
the kingdom, and had
strengthened
himself, he forsook
the law of the
LORD
, and all Israel with him.
And it cometh
to pass, in the fifth year of king Rehoboam ,
come
up
hath
Shishak king of Egypt against Jerusalem --
because they trespassed
against Jehovah
--
And it came
to pass, that
in the fifth year of king Rehoboam Shishak king of Egypt came
up
against Jerusalem ,
because they had
transgressed
against the
LORD,
with a
thousand
and
two
hundred chariots, and with
sixty
thousand horsemen ,
and there
is
no
number
to
the people who
have
come
with him out of Egypt --
Lubim
, Sukkiim
, and Cushim
--
With twelve
hundred chariots, and threescore
thousand horsemen :
and the people were
without
number
that
came
with him out of Egypt ;
the
Lubims
, the
Sukkiims
, and the
Ethiopians.
and he captureth
the cities of
the
bulwarks
that
`are'
to Judah, and cometh
in
unto
Jerusalem.
And he took
the fenced
cities which
pertained
to Judah, and came
to
Jerusalem.
And
Shemaiah the prophet hath
come
in
unto
Rehoboam and the heads
of Judah who
have
been
gathered unto
Jerusalem from
the
presence
of Shishak, and saith
to
them, `
Thus said
Jehovah
, Ye have forsaken Me, and also,
I
have left you in the hand of Shishak ;'
Then
came
Shemaiah the prophet to
Rehoboam ,
and to
the princes
of Judah ,
that
were
gathered together
to
Jerusalem because
of Shishak, and said
unto
them, Thus saith
the
LORD
, Ye have forsaken me, and therefore
have I
also
left you in the hand of Shishak .
and
the heads
of Israel are
humbled,
and the king ,
and they say
, `Righteous
`
is '
Jehovah
. '
Whereupon
the princes
of Israel and the king humbled
themselves;
and they said
, The
LORD
is righteous
.
And when Jehovah
seeth
that they have
been
humbled, a
word of Jehovah
hath
been
unto
Shemaiah, saying, `
They have been
humbled; I do
not destroy them, and
I have
given
to
them as
a
little
thing
for
an
escape,
and I
pour
not out My
fury
in
Jerusalem by the hand of Shishak ;
And when the
LORD
saw
that they humbled themselves
, the
word of the
LORD
came
to
Shemaiah, saying, They have humbled themselves
; therefore
I will
not destroy them, but
I will
grant
them some
deliverance;
and my
wrath
shall
not be
poured
out upon
Jerusalem by the hand of Shishak .
but
they become
servants to
him,
and
they know My service, and the service of the kingdoms of the lands
. '
Nevertheless
they shall
be
his
servants ;
that
they may
know my service, and the service of the kingdoms of the countries
.
And
Shishak king of Egypt cometh
up against Jerusalem, and taketh
the treasures of the house of Jehovah
, and the treasures of the house of
the
king
--
the
whole
he hath
taken
--
and
he taketh
the shields of gold that
Solomon had made ;
So
Shishak king of Egypt came
up against Jerusalem, and took
away
the treasures of the house of the
LORD
, and the treasures of the king's
house ;
he took
all:
he carried
away
also
the shields of gold which
Solomon had made .
and
king Rehoboam maketh
in
their
stead
shields of brass, and hath
given
`
them '
a
charge
on
the hand
of the heads
of the runners
who
are
keeping
the opening
of the house of
the
king;
Instead
of
which
king Rehoboam made
shields of brass, and committed
them to
the hands
of the chief
of the guard,
that
kept
the entrance
of the king's
house .
and it
cometh
to
pass,
from
the
time
of
the
going
in
of
the king to
the house of Jehovah
, the runners
have
come
in
and lifted
them up
, and brought them back
unto
the chamber of
the
runners
.
And when
the king entered
into
the house of the
LORD
, the guard
came
and fetched
them, and brought them again
into
the guard
chamber.
And in
his
being
humbled, turned
back
from
him
hath
the wrath of Jehovah
, so
as
not to
destroy to
completion;
and also ,
in Judah there
have
been
good
things.
And when
he
humbled himself
, the wrath of the
LORD
turned
from
him
, that
he
would
not destroy him
altogether:
and also in Judah things went
well
.
And
king Rehoboam strengtheneth
himself in Jerusalem, and reigneth;
for a
son
of
forty
and two
years `is'
Rehoboam
in
his
reigning
, and seventeen
years
he hath
reigned in Jerusalem, the city that
Jehovah
hath
chosen to
put
His
name
there,
out of all the tribes of Israel, and
the
name of
his mother
`is'
Naamah the
Ammonitess ,
So
king Rehoboam strengthened
himself in Jerusalem, and reigned:
for Rehoboam
was
one
and forty
years old
when
he
began
to
reign
, and he reigned seventeen
years
in Jerusalem, the city which
the
LORD
had
chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, to
put
his
name there.
And
his mother's
name
was
Naamah an
Ammonitess .
and he doth
the
evil thing
, for
he hath
not
prepared his heart to seek Jehovah
.
And he did
evil, because
he prepared not
his heart to seek the
LORD
.
And
the matters
of Rehoboam, the
first and the
last, are they not written among
the matters
of Shemaiah the prophet, and of Iddo the seer ,
concerning genealogy
? And the
wars of
Rehoboam and Jeroboam `are'
all
the
days;
Now
the acts
of Rehoboam, first and last, are they not written in
the book
of Shemaiah the prophet, and of Iddo the seer concerning genealogies
? And there
were
wars between
Rehoboam and Jeroboam continually.
and Rehoboam lieth
with his fathers, and is
buried in the city of David ,
and reign
doth
Abijah his son in his stead.
And Rehoboam slept
with his fathers, and was
buried in the city of David :
and Abijah his son reigned
in his stead.
