2nd Chronicles Chapter 12 - King James Strong Number Version

1: And it came to pass, when Rehoboam <H7346> had established <H3559> the kingdom, <H4438> and had strengthened <H2394> himself, he forsook <H5800> the law <H8451> of the LORD, <H3068> and all Israel <H3478> with him.
2: And it came to pass, [that] in the fifth <H2549> year <H8141> of king <H4428> Rehoboam <H7346> Shishak <H7895> king <H4428> of Egypt <H4714> came up <H5927> against Jerusalem, <H3389> because they had transgressed <H4603> against the LORD, <H3068>
3: With twelve hundred <H3967> <H0505> chariots, <H7393> and threescore <H8346> thousand <H0505> horsemen: <H6571> and the people <H5971> [were] without number <H4557> that came <H0935> with him out of Egypt; <H4714> the Lubims, <H3864> the Sukkiims, <H5525> and the Ethiopians. <H3569>
4: And he took <H3920> the fenced <H4694> cities <H5892> which [pertained] to Judah, <H3063> and came <H0935> to Jerusalem. <H3389>
5: Then came <H0935> Shemaiah <H8098> the prophet <H5030> to Rehoboam, <H7346> and [to] the princes <H8269> of Judah, <H3063> that were gathered <H0622> together to Jerusalem <H3389> because <H6440> of Shishak, <H7895> and said <H0559> unto them, Thus saith <H0559> the LORD, <H3068> Ye have forsaken <H5800> me, and therefore have I also <H0637> left <H5800> you in the hand <H3027> of Shishak. <H7895>
6: Whereupon the princes <H8269> of Israel <H3478> and the king <H4428> humbled <H3665> themselves; and they said, <H0559> The LORD <H3068> [is] righteous. <H6662>
7: And when the LORD <H3068> saw <H7200> that they humbled <H3665> themselves, the word <H1697> of the LORD <H3068> came to Shemaiah, <H8098> saying, <H0559> They have humbled <H3665> themselves; [therefore] I will not destroy <H7843> them, but I will grant <H5414> them some <H4592> deliverance; <H6413> and my wrath <H2534> shall not be poured out <H5413> upon Jerusalem <H3389> by the hand <H3027> of Shishak. <H7895>
8: Nevertheless they shall be his servants; <H5650> that they may know <H3045> my service, <H5656> and the service <H5656> of the kingdoms <H4467> of the countries. <H0776>
9: So Shishak <H7895> king <H4428> of Egypt <H4714> came up <H5927> against Jerusalem, <H3389> and took <H3947> away the treasures <H0214> of the house <H1004> of the LORD, <H3068> and the treasures <H0214> of the king's <H4428> house; <H1004> he took <H3947> all: he carried away <H3947> also the shields <H4043> of gold <H2091> which Solomon <H8010> had made. <H6213>
10: Instead of which king <H4428> Rehoboam <H7346> made <H6213> shields <H4043> of brass, <H5178> and committed <H6485> [them] to the hands <H3027> of the chief <H8269> of the guard, <H7323> that kept <H8104> the entrance <H6607> of the king's <H4428> house. <H1004>
11: And when <H1767> the king <H4428> entered <H0935> into the house <H1004> of the LORD, <H3068> the guard <H7323> came <H0935> and fetched <H5375> them, and brought them again <H7725> into the guard <H7323> chamber. <H8372>
12: And when he humbled <H3665> himself, the wrath <H0639> of the LORD <H3068> turned <H7725> from him, that he would not destroy <H7843> [him] altogether: <H3617> and also in Judah <H3063> things <H1697> went well. <H2896>
13: So king <H4428> Rehoboam <H7346> strengthened <H2388> himself in Jerusalem, <H3389> and reigned: <H4427> for Rehoboam <H7346> [was] one <H0259> and forty <H0705> years <H8141> old <H1121> when he began to reign, <H4427> and he reigned <H4427> seventeen <H7651> <H6240> years <H8141> in Jerusalem, <H3389> the city <H5892> which the LORD <H3068> had chosen <H0977> out of all the tribes <H7626> of Israel, <H3478> to put <H7760> his name <H8034> there. And his mother's <H0517> name <H8034> [was] Naamah <H5279> an Ammonitess. <H5984>
14: And he did <H6213> evil, <H7451> because he prepared <H3559> not his heart <H3820> to seek <H1875> the LORD. <H3068>
15: Now the acts <H1697> of Rehoboam, <H7346> first <H7223> and last, <H0314> [are] they not written <H3789> in the book <H1697> of Shemaiah <H8098> the prophet, <H5030> and of Iddo <H5714> the seer <H2374> concerning genealogies? <H3187> And [there were] wars <H4421> between Rehoboam <H7346> and Jeroboam <H3379> continually. <H3605> <H3117>
16: And Rehoboam <H7346> slept <H7901> with his fathers, <H0001> and was buried <H6912> in the city <H5892> of David: <H1732> and Abijah <H0029> his son <H1121> reigned <H4427> in his stead.
