1 Kings 14:23-28 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

23. They also built for themselves high places, sacred pillars and Asherah poles on every high hill and under every leafy tree;

24. and there were also male cult prostitutes in the land. They did the same abominations as those of the nations that Adonai had driven out before the children of Israel.

25. Now it came to pass in the fifth year of King Rehoboam, King Shishak of Egypt marched against Jerusalem.

26. He took away the treasures of the House of Adonai and the treasures of the royal palace. He took away everything—even taking all the golden shields that Solomon had made.

27. So King Rehoboam made in their place bronze shields and committed them to the hands of the captains of the guard, watching over the doorway of the royal palace.

28. Whenever the king went to the House of Adonai, the guard would carry them and bring them back into the guardroom.
