2 Chronicles 12:2-5

21And it came about in King Rehoboam’s fifth year, because they had been unfaithful to the Lord, that 2Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem

3with 1,200 chariots and 60,000 horsemen. And the people who came with him from Egypt were without number: 3the Lubim, the Sukkiim and the Ethiopians.

4He captured 4the fortified cities of Judah and came as far as Jerusalem.

5Then 5Shemaiah the prophet came to Rehoboam and the princes of Judah who had gathered at Jerusalem because of Shishak, and he said to them, “Thus says the Lord, ‘6You have forsaken Me, so I also have forsaken you 7to Shishak.’”
