1: And it came to pass,H1961 when had establishedH3559 the kingdom,H4438 RehoboamH7346 and had strengthened himselfH2393 that he forsookH5800 -H0853 the lawH8451 of Yahweh,H3068 and allH3605 IsraelH3478 along with him.H5973
2: And it came to pass,H1961 in the yearH8141 fifthH2549 of KingH4428 RehoboamH7346 [that] came upH5927 ShishakH7895 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714 againstH5921 Jerusalem,H3389 becauseH3588 they had transgressedH4603 against Yahweh,H3068
3: with a thousandH0505 and two hundredH3967 chariots,H7393 and sixtyH8346 thousandH0505 horsemen.H6571 And withoutH0369 numberH4557 peopleH5971 thatH0834 who cameH0935 with himH5973 out of EgyptH4714 the Libyans,H3864 and the Sukkiim,H5525 and the Ethiopians.H3569
4: And he tookH3920 -H0853 citiesH5892 the fortifiedH4694 thatH0834 of Judah,H3063 and cameH0935 toH5704 Jerusalem.H3389
5: And ShemaiahH8098 the prophetH5030 cameH0935 toH0413 Rehoboam,H7346 and the leadersH8269 of Judah,H3063 whoH0834 were gathered togetherH0622 inH0413 JerusalemH3389 becauseH6440 of Shishak,H7895 and to saidH0559 thusH3541 saysH0559 Yahweh,H3068 YouH0859 have forsakenH5800 MeH0853 therefore alsoH0637 IH0589 have leftH5800 youH0853 in the handH3027 of Shishak.H7895
6: So humbled themselves-H3665 the leadersH8269 of IsraelH3478 and the kingH4428 and they said,H0559 righteousH6662 Yahweh [is].H3068
7: And when now sawH7200 YahwehH3068 thatH3588 they humbled themselves,H3665 cameH1961 the wordH1697 of YahwehH3068 toH0413 Shemaiah,H8098 saying,H0559 they have humbled themselves-H3665 notH3808 [therefore] I will destroy themH7843 but I will grantH5414 themH1992 someH4592 deliverance-H6413 and notH3808 shall be poured outH5413 My wrathH2534 on JerusalemH3389 by the handH3027 of Shishak.H7895
8: NeverthelessH3588 they will beH1961 his servants-H5650 that they may distinguishH3045 My service,H5656 and from the serviceH5656 of the kingdomsH4467 of the nations.H0776
9: So came upH5927 ShishakH7895 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714 againstH5921 Jerusalem,H3389 and took awayH3947 -H0853 the treasuresH0214 of the houseH1004 of Yahweh,H3068 andH0853 the treasuresH0214 of house-H1004 of the kingH4428 -H0853 everything-H3605 he tookH3947 and He carried awayH3947 -H0853 the shieldsH4043 goldH2091 whichH0834 had madeH6213 Solomon.H8010
10: And madeH6213 KingH4428 RehoboamH7346 in their placeH8478 shieldsH4043 bronze,H5178 and committed [them]H6485 toH5921 the handsH3027 of the captainsH8269 of the guard,H7323 who guardedH8104 the doorwayH6607 of houseH1004 of the king.H4428
11: AndH1961 wheneverH1767 enteredH0935 the kingH4428 the houseH1004 of Yahweh,H3068 would goH0935 the guardH7323 and bring them outH5375 then they would take them backH7725 intoH0413 chamberH8372 the guardroom.H7323
12: And when he humbled himself,H3665 turnedH7725 from himH4480 the wrathH0639 of YahwehH3068 so as notH3808 to destroy [him]H7843 completely-H3617 and alsoH1571 in JudahH3063 wentH1961 thingsH1697 well.H2896
13: Thus strengthened himselfH2388 kingH4428 RehoboamH7346 in Jerusalem,H3389 and reigned.H4427 NowH3588 oldH1121 fortyH0705 and oneH0259 yearsH8141 Rehoboam [was]H7346 when he became king,H4427 and sevenH7651 [and] tenH6240 yearsH8141 he reignedH4427 in Jerusalem,H3389 the cityH5892 whichH0834 had chosenH0977 YahwehH3068 to putH7760 -H0853 His nameH8034 there.H8033 Out of allH3605 the tribesH7626 of Israel,H3478 and name [was]H8034 of His motherH0517 NaamahH5279 an Ammonitess.H5985
14: And he didH6213 evil,H7451 becauseH3588 notH3808 he did prepareH3559 his heartH3820 to seekH1875 -H0853 Yahweh.H3068
15: And the actsH1697 of Rehoboam,H7346 firstH7223 and last,H0314 [are] notH3808 theyH1992 writtenH3789 in the bookH1697 of ShemaiahH8098 the prophet,H5030 and of IddoH5714 the seerH2374 concerning genealogies?H3187 and [there were] warsH4421 [between] RehoboamH7346 and JeroboamH3379 allH3605 their days.H3117
16: So restedH7901 RehoboamH7346 withH5973 his fathers,H0001 and was buriedH6912 in the CityH5892 of David-H1732 and reignedH4427 AbijahH0029 his sonH1121 in his place.H8478
