2 Chronicles 12:2-9

And it came to pass, [that] in the fifth
<02549>
year
<08141>
of king
<04428>
Rehoboam
<07346>
Shishak
<07895>
king
<04428>
of Egypt
<04714>
came up
<05927> (8804)
against Jerusalem
<03389>_,
because they had transgressed
<04603> (8804)
against the LORD
<03068>_,
With twelve hundred
<03967> <0505>
chariots
<07393>_,
and threescore
<08346>
thousand
<0505>
horsemen
<06571>_:
and the people
<05971>
[were] without number
<04557>
that came
<0935> (8804)
with him out of Egypt
<04714>_;
the Lubims
<03864>_,
the Sukkiims
<05525>_,
and the Ethiopians
<03569>_.
And he took
<03920> (8799)
the fenced
<04694>
cities
<05892>
which [pertained] to Judah
<03063>_,
and came
<0935> (8799)
to Jerusalem
<03389>_.
Then came
<0935> (8804)
Shemaiah
<08098>
the prophet
<05030>
to Rehoboam
<07346>_,
and [to] the princes
<08269>
of Judah
<03063>_,
that were gathered together
<0622> (8738)
to Jerusalem
<03389>
because
<06440>
of Shishak
<07895>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)
unto them, Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
Ye have forsaken
<05800> (8804)
me, and therefore have I also
<0637>
left
<05800> (8804)
you in the hand
<03027>
of Shishak
<07895>_.
Whereupon the princes
<08269>
of Israel
<03478>
and the king
<04428>
humbled
<03665> (8735)
themselves; and they said
<0559> (8799)_,
The LORD
<03068>
[is] righteous
<06662>_.
And when the LORD
<03068>
saw
<07200> (8800)
that they humbled
<03665> (8738)
themselves, the word
<01697>
of the LORD
<03068>
came to Shemaiah
<08098>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
They have humbled
<03665> (8738)
themselves; [therefore] I will not destroy
<07843> (8686)
them, but I will grant
<05414> (8804)
them some
<04592>
deliverance
<06413>_;
and my wrath
<02534>
shall not be poured out
<05413> (8799)
upon Jerusalem
<03389>
by the hand
<03027>
of Shishak
<07895>_.
{some: or, a little while}
Nevertheless they shall be his servants
<05650>_;
that they may know
<03045> (8799)
my service
<05656>_,
and the service
<05656>
of the kingdoms
<04467>
of the countries
<0776>_.
So Shishak
<07895>
king
<04428>
of Egypt
<04714>
came up
<05927> (8799)
against Jerusalem
<03389>_,
and took away
<03947> (8799)
the treasures
<0214>
of the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
and the treasures
<0214>
of the king's
<04428>
house
<01004>_;
he took
<03947> (8804)
all: he carried away
<03947> (8799)
also the shields
<04043>
of gold
<02091>
which Solomon
<08010>
had made
<06213> (8804)_.
