- Now when Rehoboam had come to Jerusalem, he assembled the house of Judah and Benjamin, 180,000 chosen men who were warriors, to fight against Israel to restore the kingdom to Rehoboam.
- But the word of the LORD came to Shemaiah the man of God, saying,
- "Speak to Rehoboam the son of Solomon, king of Judah, and to all Israel in Judah and Benjamin, saying,
- 'Thus says the LORD, "You shall not go up or fight against your relatives; return every man to his house, for this thing is from Me."'" So they listened to the words of the LORD and returned from going against Jeroboam.
- Rehoboam lived in Jerusalem and built cities for defense in Judah.

- 羅波安來到耶路撒冷、招聚猶大家、和便雅憫家、共十八萬人、都是挑選的戰士、要與以色列人爭戰、好將國奪回再歸自己。
- 但耶和華的話臨到神人示瑪雅說、
- 你去告訴所羅門的兒子猶大王羅波安、和住猶大便雅憫的以色列眾人、說、
- 耶和華如此說、你們不可上去、與你們的弟兄爭戰.各歸各家去罷.因為這事出於我。眾人就聽從耶和華的話、歸回不去與耶羅波安爭戰。
- 羅波安住在耶路撒冷、在猶大地修築城邑。
