²² But the Word of God came to Shemaiah, the man of God, saying:

²³ “Speak to Rehoboam, the son of Solomon, king of Judah, and to all the House of Judah and Benjamin, and the remnant of the people, saying,

²⁴ ‘Thus says the LORD: “You shall not go up or fight against your brethren, the children of Israel. Every man return to his house. For this thing is done by Me.”’” Therefore, they obeyed the Word of the LORD and returned and departed, according to the Word of the LORD.
