2 Crônicas 12 - Bíblia Online

Men da Rehabeams kongedømme var blitt trygget, og han var blitt mektig, forlot han Herrens lov, og hele Israel med ham. 
Da hendte det i kong Rehabeams femte år at Egyptens konge Sisak drog op mot Jerusalem - for de hadde båret sig troløst at mot Herren; 
han kom med tolv hundre stridsvogner og seksti tusen hestfolk, og det var ikke tall på de folk som fulgte ham fra Egypten - libyere, sukkittere og etiopere. 
Han inntok de faste byer i Juda og kom like til Jerusalem. 
Da kom profeten Semaja til Rehabeam og Judas høvdinger, som hadde samlet sig i Jerusalem av frykt for Sisak, og han sa til dem: Så sier Herren: I har forlatt mig; derfor har også jeg forlatt eder og gitt eder i Sisaks hånd. 
Men Israels høvdinger og kongen ydmyket sig og sa: Herren er rettferdig. 
Og da Herren så at de hadde ydmyket sig, kom Herrens ord til Semaja, og det lød således: De har ydmyket sig; jeg vil ikke ødelegge dem, men la dem så vidt bli frelst, og min harme skal ikke bli utøst over Jerusalem ved Sisak; 
dog skal de bli hans tjenere og få kjenne hvad forskjell det er på å tjene mig og å tjene hedningelandenes konger. 
Så drog da Egyptens konge Sisak op mot Jerusalem og tok skattene i Herrens hus og skattene i kongens hus; alt sammen tok han. Han tok også de gullskjold som Salomo hadde latt gjøre. 
Istedenfor dem lot kong Rehabeam gjøre kobberskjold og betrodde dem til høvedsmennene for drabantene som voktet inngangen til kongens hus; 
og så ofte kongen gikk inn i Herrens hus, kom drabantene og bar dem og tok dem så med tilbake til vaktstuen. 
Fordi Rehabeam ydmyket sig, vendte Herrens vrede sig fra ham; han vilde ikke ødelegge ham aldeles, og det fantes dog ennu noget godt i Juda. 
Siden satt kong Rehabeam atter fast i sitt kongedømme i Jerusalem og regjerte der; for han var en og firti år gammel da han blev konge, og han regjerte sytten år i Jerusalem, den stad som Herren hadde utvalgt blandt alle Israels stammer for å la sitt navn bo der. Hans mor hette Na'ama og var fra Ammon. 
Han gjorde hvad ondt var; for han vendte ikke sitt hjerte til å søke Herren. 
Alt hvad som er å fortelle om Rehabeam, både i hans første og i hans senere dager, det er opskrevet i profeten Semajas og seeren Iddos krønike, der hvor ættetavlene er optegnet. Mellem Rehabeam og Jeroboam var det krig hele tiden. 
Og Rehabeam la sig til hvile hos sine fedre og blev begravet i Davids stad, og hans sønn Abia blev konge i hans sted. 

Now when Rehoboam's position as king had been made certain, and he was strong, he gave up the law of the Lord, and all Israel with him. 
Now in the fifth year of King Rehoboam, Shishak, king of Egypt, came up against Jerusalem, because of their sin against the Lord, 
With twelve hundred war-carriages and sixty thousand horsemen: and the people who came with him out of Egypt were more than might be numbered: Lubim and Sukkiim and Ethiopians. 
And he took the walled towns of Judah, and came as far as Jerusalem. 
Now Shemaiah the prophet came to Rehoboam and the chiefs of Judah, who had come together in Jerusalem because of Shishak, and said to them, The Lord has said, Because you have given me up, I have given you up into the hands of Shishak. 
Then the chiefs of Israel and the king made themselves low and said, The Lord is upright. 
And the Lord, seeing that they had made themselves low, said to Shemaiah, They have made themselves low: I will not send destruction on them, but in a short time I will give them salvation, and will not let loose my wrath on Jerusalem by the hand of Shishak. 
But still they will become his servants, so that they may see how different my yoke is from the yoke of the kingdoms of the lands. 
So Shishak, king of Egypt, came up against Jerusalem and took away all the stored wealth of the house of the Lord and the king's house: he took everything away, and with the rest the gold body-covers which Solomon had made. 
And in their place King Rehoboam had other body-covers made of brass and gave them into the care of the captains of the armed men who were stationed at the door of the king's house. 
And whenever the king went into the house of the Lord, the armed men went with him taking the body-covers, and then took them back to their room. 
And when he made himself low, the wrath of the Lord was turned back from him, and complete destruction did not come on him, for there was still some good in Judah. 
So King Rehoboam made himself strong in Jerusalem and was ruling there. Rehoboam was forty-one years old when he became king, and he was ruling for seventeen years in Jerusalem, the town which the Lord had made his out of all the tribes of Israel, to put his name there; and his mother's name was Naamah, an Ammonite woman. 
And he did evil because his heart was not true to the Lord. 
Now the acts of Rehoboam, first and last, are they not recorded in the words of Shemaiah the prophet and Iddo the seer? And there were wars between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all their days. 
And Rehoboam went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth in the town of David; and Abijah his son became king in his place.
