MLV(i)
2 And it happened in the fifth year of king Rehoboam, that Shishak King of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, because they had trespassed against Jehovah,
3 with twelve hundred chariots and thirty thousand horsemen. And the people were without number who came with him out of Egypt: the Lubim, the Sukkiim and the Ethiopians.
4 And he took the fortified cities which pertained to Judah and came to Jerusalem.
5 Now Shemaiah the prophet came to Rehoboam and to the rulers of Judah, who were gathered together to Jerusalem because of Shishak and said to them, Jehovah says thus, You* have forsaken me, therefore I have also left you* in the hand of Shishak. 6 Then the rulers of Israel and the king humbled themselves and they said, Jehovah is righteous.
7 And when Jehovah saw that they humbled themselves, the word of Jehovah came to Shemaiah, saying, They have humbled themselves. I will not destroy them, but I will grant them some deliverance and my wrath will not be poured out upon Jerusalem by the hand of Shishak. 8 Nevertheless they will be his servants, that they may know my service and the service of the kingdoms of the countries.
9 So Shishak King of Egypt came up against Jerusalem and took away the treasures of the house of Jehovah and the treasures of the king's house; he took all away. He also took away the shields of gold which Solomon had made.
