12 katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE Passage Biblia Hebraica

12 1When the rule of Rehoboam was established and was strong, he forsook the law of Yahweh, and all Israel with him.SHISHAK's invasion of Judah. 2Chr.12.1-12 | 1Kgs.14.25-28וַיְהִי כְּהָכִין מַלְכוּת רְחַבְעָם וּכְחֶזְקָתֹו עָזַב אֶת־תֹּורַת יְהוָה וְכָל־יִשְׂרָאֵל עִמֹּו׃ ף
2In the fifth year of King Rehoboam, because they had been unfaithful to Yahweh, Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem וַיְהִי בַּשָּׁנָה הַחֲמִישִׁית לַמֶּלֶךְ רְחַבְעָם עָלָה שִׁישַׁק מֶלֶךְ־מִצְרַיִם עַל־יְרוּשָׁלִָם כִּי מָעֲלוּ בַּיהוָה׃
3with twelve hundred chariots and sixty thousand horsemen. And the people were without number who came with him from Egypt - Libyans, Sukkiim, and Ethiopians. בְּאֶלֶף וּמָאתַיִם רֶכֶב וּבְשִׁשִּׁים אֶלֶף פָּרָשִׁים וְאֵין מִסְפָּר לָעָם אֲשֶׁר־בָּאוּ עִמֹּו מִמִּצְרַיִם לוּבִים סֻכִּיִּים וְכוּשִׁים׃
4And he took the fortified cities of Judah and came as far as Jerusalem. וַיִּלְכֹּד אֶת־עָרֵי הַמְּצֻרֹות אֲשֶׁר לִיהוּדָה וַיָּבֹא עַד־יְרוּשָׁלִָם׃ ס
5Then Shemaiah the prophet came to Rehoboam and to the princes of Judah, who had gathered at Jerusalem because of Shishak, and said to them, "Thus says Yahweh, 'You abandoned me, so I have abandoned you to the hand of Shishak.' " וּשְׁמַעְיָה הַנָּבִיא בָּא אֶל־רְחַבְעָם וְשָׂרֵי יְהוּדָה אֲשֶׁר־נֶאֶסְפוּ אֶל־יְרוּשָׁלִַם מִפְּנֵי שִׁישָׁק וַיֹּאמֶר לָהֶם כֹּה־אָמַר יְהוָה אַתֶּם עֲזַבְתֶּם אֹתִי וְאַף־אֲנִי עָזַבְתִּי אֶתְכֶם בְּיַד־שִׁישָׁק׃
6Then the princes of Israel and the king humbled themselves and said, "Yahweh is righteous." וַיִּכָּנְעוּ שָׂרֵי־יִשְׂרָאֵל וְהַמֶּלֶךְ וַיֹּאמְרוּ צַדִּיק יְהוָה׃
7When Yahweh saw that they humbled themselves, the word of Yahweh came to Shemaiah: "They have humbled themselves; I will not destroy them, but I will grant them some deliverance, and my wrath shall not be poured out upon Jerusalem by the hand of Shishak. וּבִרְאֹות יְהוָה כִּי נִכְנָעוּ הָיָה דְבַר־יְהוָה אֶל־שְׁמַעְיָה לֵאמֹר נִכְנְעוּ לֹא אַשְׁחִיתֵם וְנָתַתִּי לָהֶם כִּמְעַט לִפְלֵיטָה וְלֹא־תִתַּךְ חֲמָתִי בִּירוּשָׁלִַם בְּיַד־שִׁישָׁק׃
8Nevertheless they shall be servants to him, that they may know my service and the service of the kingdoms of the countries." כִּי יִהְיוּ־לֹו לַעֲבָדִים וְיֵדְעוּ עֲבֹודָתִי וַעֲבֹודַת מַמְלְכֹות הָאֲרָצֹות׃ ס
9So Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem; he took away the treasures of the house of Yahweh and the treasures of the king's house; he took away everything. He also took away the shields of gold which Solomon had made; וַיַּעַל שִׁישַׁק מֶלֶךְ־מִצְרַיִם עַל־יְרוּשָׁלִַם וַיִּקַּח אֶת־אֹצְרֹות בֵּית־יְהוָה וְאֶת־אֹצְרֹות בֵּית הַמֶּלֶךְ אֶת־הַכֹּל לָקָח וַיִּקַּח אֶת־מָגִנֵּי הַזָּהָב אֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה שְׁלֹמֹה׃
10and King Rehoboam made in their stead shields of bronze, and committed them to the hands of the officers of the guard, who kept the door of the king's house. וַיַּעַשׂ הַמֶּלֶךְ רְחַבְעָם תַּחְתֵּיהֶם מָגִנֵּי נְחֹשֶׁת וְהִפְקִיד עַל־יַד שָׂרֵי הָרָצִים הַשֹּׁמְרִים פֶּתַח בֵּית הַמֶּלֶךְ׃
11And as often as the king went into the house of Yahweh, the guard came and bore them, and brought them back to the guardroom. וַיְהִי מִדֵּי־בֹוא הַמֶּלֶךְ בֵּית יְהוָה בָּאוּ הָרָצִים וּנְשָׂאוּם וֶהֱשִׁבוּם אֶל־תָּא הָרָצִים׃
12And when he humbled himself the wrath of Yahweh turned from him, so as not to make a complete destruction; moreover, conditions were good in Judah. וּבְהִכָּנְעֹו שָׁב מִמֶּנּוּ אַף־יְהוָה וְלֹא לְהַשְׁחִית לְכָלָה וְגַם בִּיהוּדָה הָיָה דְּבָרִים טֹובִים׃ ס

Notes: This page displays passages from the katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE.
The katapi NEW STUDY BIBLE is a very light revision of the RSV. The changes are: (1) In places where 'the LORD', 'O LORD' occurs in the RSV, (it represents the tetragrammaton - YHWH - which is in the hebrew text), I have used the name 'Yahweh'.
(2) I have removed the quotation marks and hyphens that were used in so many names in the RSV as an aid to correct pronunciation. This now brings it in line with all other English versions, and makes any word-search more accurate.
(3) I have changed all (I hope!) of the RSV archaic language sections to modern.

The katapi New Study Bible reference section displays links to parallel passages, and to direct quotations by New Testament authors to Old Testament passages. Quotations of OT passages by NT authors can in most cases be viewed within their context of the OT passage as a whole, with the quoted text displayed, against a subdued background.
