Amplified Bible
2 Chronicles 12:5-8
5Then Shemaiah the prophet came to Rehoboam and the leaders of Judah who had gathered at Jerusalem because of Shishak, and said to them, “Thus says the Lord: ‘You have abandoned (turned away from) Me, so I have abandoned you into the hands of Shishak.’ ”
6Then the leaders of Israel and the king humbled themselves and said, “The Lord is righteous.”
7When the Lord saw that they humbled themselves, the word of the Lord came to Shemaiah, saying, “They have humbled themselves so I will not destroy them, but I will grant them some measure of a remnant [that escapes]; and My wrath shall not be poured out on Jerusalem by means of Shishak.
8Nevertheless they will become his slaves, so that they may know [the difference between] My service and the service of the kingdoms of the countries.”
