1 Kings 14:20-29
English Standard Version
21Now Rehoboam the son of Solomon reigned in Judah. Rehoboam was forty-one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city that the Lord had chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, to put his name there. His mother 's name was Naamah the Ammonite.
22And Judah did what was evil in the sight of the Lord, and they provoked him to jealousy with their sins that they committed, more than all that their fathers had done.
23For they also built for themselves high places and pillars and Asherim on every high hill and under every green tree,
24and there were also male cult prostitutes in the land. They did according to all the abominations of the nations that the Lord drove out before the people of Israel.
25In the fifth year of King Rehoboam, Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem.
26He took away the treasures of the house of the Lord and the treasures of the king 's house. He took away everything. He also took away all the shields of gold that Solomon had made,
27and King Rehoboam made in their place shields of bronze, and committed them to the hands of the officers of the guard, who kept the door of the king 's house.
28And as often as the king went into the house of the Lord, the guard carried them and brought them back to the guardroom.
