The Epistle of Barnabas
EpiBar
[1]And it came to pass, when RehoboamH7346 had establishedH3559[H8687] the kingdomH4438, and had strengthenedH2393 himself, he forsookH5800[H8804] the lawH8451 of the LORDH3068, and all Israel with himH3478. [No book]
[2]And it came to pass, that in the fifthH2549 yearH8141 of kingH4428 RehoboamH7346 ShishakH7895 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714 came upH5927[H8804] against JerusalemH3389, because they had transgressedH4603[H8804] against the LORDH3068, [No book]
[3]With twelve hundredH3967[H505] chariotsH7393, and threescoreH8346 thousandH505 horsemenH6571: and the peopleH5971 were without numberH4557 that cameH935[H8804] with him out of EgyptH4714; the LubimsH3864, the SukkiimsH5525, and the EthiopiansH3569. [No book]
[4]And he tookH3920[H8799] the fencedH4694 citiesH5892 which pertained to JudahH3063, and cameH935[H8799] to JerusalemH3389. [No book]
[5]Then cameH935[H8804] ShemaiahH8098 the prophetH5030 to RehoboamH7346, and to the princesH8269 of JudahH3063, that were gathered togetherH622[H8738] to JerusalemH3389 becauseH6440 of ShishakH7895, and saidH559[H8799] unto them, Thus saithH559[H8804] the LORDH3068, Ye have forsakenH5800[H8804] me, and therefore have I alsoH637 leftH5800[H8804] you in the handH3027 of ShishakH7895. [No book]
[6]Whereupon the princesH8269 of IsraelH3478 and the kingH4428 humbledH3665[H8735] themselves; and they saidH559[H8799], The LORDH3068 is righteousH6662. [No book]
[7]And when the LORDH3068 sawH7200[H8800] that they humbledH3665[H8738] themselves, the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 came to ShemaiahH8098, sayingH559[H8800], They have humbledH3665[H8738] themselves; therefore I will not destroyH7843[H8686] them, but I will grantH5414[H8804] them someH4592 deliveranceH6413; and my wrathH2534 shall not be poured outH5413[H8799] upon JerusalemH3389 by the handH3027 of ShishakH7895. [No book]
[8]Nevertheless they shall be his servantsH5650; that they may knowH3045[H8799] my serviceH5656, and the serviceH5656 of the kingdomsH4467 of the countriesH776. [No book]
[9]So ShishakH7895 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714 came upH5927[H8799] against JerusalemH3389, and took awayH3947[H8799] the treasuresH214 of the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and the treasuresH214 of the king'sH4428 houseH1004; he tookH3947[H8804] all: he carried awayH3947[H8799] also the shieldsH4043 of goldH2091 which SolomonH8010 had madeH6213.[H8804] [No book]
[10]Instead of which kingH4428 RehoboamH7346 madeH6213[H8799] shieldsH4043 of brassH5178, and committedH6485[H8689] them to the handsH3027 of the chiefH8269 of the guardH7323[H8801], that keptH8104[H8802] the entranceH6607 of the king'sH4428 houseH1004. [No book]
[11]And whenH1767 the kingH4428 enteredH935[H8800] into the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, the guardH7323[H8801] cameH935[H8804] and fetchedH5375[H8804] them, and brought them againH7725[H8689] into the guardH7323[H8801] chamberH8372. [No book]
[12]And when he humbledH3665[H8736] himself, the wrathH639 of the LORDH3068 turnedH7725[H8804] from him, that he would not destroyH7843[H8687] him altogetherH3617: and also in JudahH3063 thingsH1697 went wellH2896. [No book]
[13]So kingH4428 RehoboamH7346 strengthenedH2388[H8691] himself in JerusalemH3389, and reignedH4427[H8799]: for RehoboamH7346 was oneH259 and fortyH705 yearsH8141 oldH1121 when he began to reignH4427[H8800], and he reignedH4427[H8804] seventeenH7651[H6240] yearsH8141 in JerusalemH3389, the cityH5892 which the LORDH3068 had chosenH977[H8804] out of all the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478, to putH7760[H8800] his nameH8034 there. And his mother'sH517 nameH8034 was NaamahH5279 an AmmonitessH5985. [No book]
[14]And he didH6213[H8799] evilH7451, because he preparedH3559[H8689] not his heartH3820 to seekH1875[H8800] the LORDH3068. [No book]
[15]Now the actsH1697 of RehoboamH7346, firstH7223 and lastH314, are they not writtenH3789[H8803] in the bookH1697 of ShemaiahH8098 the prophetH5030, and of IddoH5714 the seerH2374 concerning genealogiesH3187[H8692]? And there were warsH4421 between RehoboamH7346 and JeroboamH3379 continuallyH3117. [No book]
[16]And RehoboamH7346 sleptH7901[H8799] with his fathersH1, and was buriedH6912[H8735] in the cityH5892 of DavidH1732: and AbijahH29 his sonH1121 reignedH4427 in his steadH8799. [No book]
