Judah did evil in the sight of the LORD. They made him more jealous by their sins than their ancestors had done.
They even built for themselves high places, sacred pillars, and Asherah poles on every high hill and under every green tree.
There were also male cultic prostitutes in the land. They committed the same horrible sins as the nations that the LORD had driven out from before the Israelites.
In King Rehoboam’s fifth year, King Shishak of Egypt attacked Jerusalem.
He took away the treasures of the LORD’s temple and of the royal palace; he took everything, including all the golden shields that Solomon had made.
King Rehoboam made bronze shields to replace them and assigned them to the officers of the royal guard who protected the entrance to the royal palace.
Whenever the king visited the LORD’s temple, the royal guard carried them and then brought them back to the guardroom.
