2 Chronicles 12:1-3

GOD’S WORD Translation

King Shishak Takes the Temple Treasures^(A)

12 When Rehoboam had established his kingdom and made himself strong, he and all Israel abandoned the Lord’s teachings. ² In the fifth year of Rehoboam’s reign, King Shishak of Egypt attacked Jerusalem. This happened because all Israel was not loyal to the Lord. ³ Shishak had 1,200 chariots, 60,000 horses, and an army of countless Libyans, Sukkites, and Sudanese from Egypt.
