4And he tookH3920 the fencedH4694 citiesH5892 which pertained to JudahH3063, and cameH935 to JerusalemH3389.

5Then cameH935 ShemaiahH8098 the prophetH5030 to RehoboamH7346, and to the princesH8269 of JudahH3063, that were gathered togetherH622 to JerusalemH3389 becauseH6440 of ShishakH7895, and saidH559 unto them, Thus saithH559 YhwhH3068, Ye have forsakenH5800 me, and therefore have I alsoH637 leftH5800 you in the handH3027 of ShishakH7895. 6Whereupon the princesH8269 of IsraelH3478 and the kingH4428 humbledH3665 themselves; and they saidH559, YhwhH3068 is righteousH6662. 7And when YhwhH3068 sawH7200 that they humbledH3665 themselves, the wordH1697 of YhwhH3068 came to ShemaiahH8098, sayingH559, They have humbledH3665 themselves; therefore I will not destroyH7843 them, but I will grantH5414 them someH4592 deliveranceH6413; and my wrathH2534 shall not be poured outH5413 upon JerusalemH3389 by the handH3027 of ShishakH7895.1
