2 Chronicles 12:2–9

^2*And it came to pass, that ^cin the fifth year of king Rehoboam Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, because they had transgressed against the Lord, ³With twelve hundred chariots, and threescore thousand horsemen: and the people were without number that came with him out of Egypt; the ^dLubims, the Sukkiims, and the ^dEthiopians. ⁴And he took ^ethe fenced cities which pertained to Judah, and came to Jerusalem. ⁵Then came ^fShemaiah 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, ^gYe have forsaken me, and therefore have I also left you in the hand of Shishak. ⁶Whereupon the princes of ^hIsrael and the king humbled themselves; and they said, ⁱThe Lord is righteous. ⁷And when the Lord saw that they ^jhumbled 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 ^kmy wrath shall not be poured out upon Jerusalem by the hand of Shishak. ⁸Nevertheless they shall be his servants; that they may know ^lmy service, and the service of the kingdoms of the countries. ^9mSo 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 ⁿwhich Solomon had made.
