2 Chronicles 12:1-4 ▼

1 When Rehoboam had established his sovereignty and royal power, he abandoned the law of the LORD—he and all Israel with him.

2 Because they were unfaithful to the LORD, in the fifth year of King Rehoboam, King Shishak of Egypt went to war against Jerusalem

3 with 1,200 chariots, 60,000 cavalrymen, and countless people who came with him from Egypt—Libyans, Sukkiim, and Cushites.

4 He captured the fortified cities of Judah and came as far as Jerusalem.
