Shishak Invades Jerusalem

1 Kings 14:25-31
25
In the fifth year of King Rechav'am, Shishak king of Egypt attacked Yerushalayim.
26
He took the treasures in the house of ADONAI and the treasures in the royal palace - he took everything, including all the gold shields Shlomo had made.
27
To replace them, King Rechav'am made shields of bronze, which he entrusted to the commanders of the contingent guarding the gate to the royal palace.
28
Whenever the king went to the house of ADONAI, the guard would get the shields; later they would return them to the guardroom.
29
Other activities of Rechav'am and all his accomplishments are recorded in the Annals of the Kings of Y'hudah.
30
But there was continual war between Rechav'am and Yarov'am.
31
Rechav'am slept with his ancestors and was buried with his ancestors in the City of David; his mother's name was Na'amah the 'Amonit. Then Aviyam his son became king in his place.
