2 Chronicles 12:2-4

International Children’s Bible

² Shishak was the king of Egypt. He attacked Jerusalem in the fifth year Rehoboam was king. This happened because Rehoboam and the people were unfaithful to the Lord. ³ Shishak had 1,200 chariots and 60,000 horsemen. He brought troops of Libyans, Sukkites and Cushites from Egypt with him. There were so many they couldn’t be counted. ⁴ Shishak captured the strong, walled cities of Judah. And he came as far as Jerusalem.
