2 Chronicles 12:5-8
5Then 1ShemaiahH8098 the prophetH5030 cameH935 to RehoboamH7346 and the princesH8269 of JudahH3063 whoH834 had gatheredH622 at JerusalemH3389 becauseH4480H6440 of ShishakH7895, and he saidH559 to them, “ThisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH3068 saysH559: ‘2You have abandonedH5800 Me, so I alsoH637 have abandonedH5800 you 3to ShishakH7895.’” 6So the princesH8269 of IsraelH3478 and the kingH4428 humbledH3665 themselves and saidH559, “The 4LordH3068 is righteousH6662.”
7When the LordH3068 sawH7200 that they had humbledH3665 themselves, the wordH1697 of the LordH3068 cameH1961 to ShemaiahH8098, sayingH559, “5They have humbledH3665 themselves, so I will not destroyH7843 them; and I will grantH5414 them a littleH4592 deliveranceH6413, and 6My wrathH2534 will not be pouredH5413 outH5413 on JerusalemH3389 by meansH3027 of ShishakH7895. 8But they will becomeH1961 his slavesH5650, so 7that they may learnH3045 the difference between My serviceH5656 and the serviceH5656 of the kingdomsH4467 of the countriesH776.”
