1 When the kingdom of Rehoboam was established and strong, he and all Israel with him forsook the law of the Lord.
2 And it came about in King Rehoboam's fifth year, because they had been unfaithful to the Lord, that Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem
3 with 1,200 chariots and 60,000 horsemen. And the people who came with him from Egypt were without number: the Lubim, the Sukkiim and the Ethiopians.
4 He captured the fortified cities of Judah and came as far as Jerusalem.
