5. Formal Translation And Shemaiah the prophet came to Rehoboam and the officials of Judah who had assembled in Jerusalem because of Shishak, and he said to them, “Thus says the LORD {Yahweh, Covenant Judge}: ‘You have abandoned Me, and I have also abandoned you into the hand of Shishak.’” |
5. Dynamic Translation Shemaiah the prophet went to Rehoboam and Judah’s leaders, who had gathered in Jerusalem because of Shishak. He said to them, “This is what the LORD {Yahweh, Righteous Discipliner} says: ‘You left Me, so I have left you under Shishak’s control.’” |
