2 Chronicles 12:9
Compare all
7 Now when the Lord saw that they humbled themselves, athe 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. My wrath shall not be poured out on Jerusalem by the hand of Shishak.  
8 Nevertheless athey will be his servants, that they may distinguish bMy service from the service of the kingdoms of the nations.”  
9 aSo 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 everything. He also carried away the gold shields which Solomon had bmade.  
10 Then King Rehoboam made bronze shields in their place, and committed them ato the hands of the captains of the guard, who guarded the doorway of the king’s house.  
11 And whenever the king entered the house of the Lord, the guard would go and bring them out; then they would take them back into the guardroom.
12 When he humbled himself, the wrath of the Lord turned from him, so as not to destroy him completely; and things also went well in Judah.

The End of Rehoboam’s Reign

13 Thus King Rehoboam strengthened himself in Jerusalem and reigned. Now aRehoboam was forty-one years old when he became king; and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, bthe city which the Lord had chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, to put His name there. His mother’s name was Naamah, an cAmmonitess.
