1 Kings 14:22-27 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

22. But Judah did evil in the eyes of Yahweh, and they annoyed him more than their fathers did with their sins that they had committed.

23. They also built for themselves high places and stone pillars and sacred poles on every high hill and under every green tree.

24. There were also male shrine prostitutes in the land, and they did according to all the abominations of the nations which Yahweh had driven out from before the Israelites.

25. It happened in the fifth year of King Rehoboam that Shishak the king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem,

26. and he took the treasures of the house of Yahweh, and he took all the treasures of the king’s house. He took the small gold shields that Solomon had made,

27. so King Rehoboam made small copper shields in place of them and entrusted them to the commanders of the royal guard who keep the doorway of the king’s house.
