1 When Rehoboam came to Jerusalem, he gathered the people of Judah and Benjamin, 180,000 of the best soldiers, to fight against Israel and return the kingdom to Rehoboam. 2 But God spoke his word to Shemaiah, the man of God. He said, 3 |Speak to Judah's King Rehoboam, son of Solomon, and all Israel in Judah and Benjamin. 4 This is what the LORD says: Don't wage war against your relatives. Everyone, go home. What has happened is my doing.| So they obeyed the word of the LORD. They turned back from their attack on Jeroboam. 2 Chronicles 11:1-4, God's Word Translation.
