1 And it came to pass, when Rehobo´am had established the kingdom, and had strengthened himself, he forsook the law of the Lord, and all Israel with him.
2 And it came to pass, that in the fifth year of king Rehobo´am, Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, because they had transgressed against the Lord,
3 with twelve hundred chariots, and threescore thousand horsemen: and the people were without number that came with him out of Egypt; the Lubim, the Suk´ki-im, and the Ethiopians.
4 And he took the fenced cities which pertained to Judah, and came to Jerusalem.
