In context
1 When Rehoboam arrived in Jerusalem, he mobilized the house of Judah and Benjamin—180,000 chosen warriors—to fight against Israel and restore the kingdom to Rehoboam.
2 But the word of the LORD came to Shemaiah the man of God:
3 “Tell Rehoboam son of Solomon king of Judah and all the Israelites in Judah and Benjamin
4 that this is what the LORD says: ‘You are not to go up and fight against your brothers. Each of you must return home, for this word is from Me.’” So they listened to the words of the LORD and turned back from going against Jeroboam.
5 Rehoboam continued to live in Jerusalem, and he built up cities for defense in Judah.
