52 “They shall ^cbesiege you in all your towns, until your high and fortified walls, in which you trusted, come down throughout all your land. And they shall besiege you in all your towns throughout all your land, which the Lord your God has given you. 53 And ^dyou shall eat the fruit of your womb, the flesh of your sons and daughters, whom the Lord your God has given you, ^ein the siege and in the distress with which your enemies shall distress you. 54 The man who is the most tender and refined among you will ^fbegrudge food to his brother, to ^gthe wife he embraces, ^{▼▼Hebrew the wife of his bosom} and to the last of the children whom he has left, 55 so that he will not give to any of them any of the flesh of his children whom he is eating, because he has nothing else left, ⁱin the siege and in the distress with which your enemy shall distress you in all your towns. 56 ^jThe most tender and refined woman among you, who would not venture to set the sole of her foot on the ground because she is so delicate and tender, will begrudge to the husband she embraces, ^{▼▼Hebrew the husband of her bosom} to her son and to her daughter, 57 her afterbirth that comes out from between her feet and her children whom she bears, because lacking everything she will eat them secretly, ^lin the siege and in the distress with which your enemy shall distress you in your towns.

2 ^mIn the fifth year of King Rehoboam, because they had been unfaithful to the Lord, ⁿShishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem 3 with 1,200 chariots and 60,000 horsemen. And the people were without number who came with him from Egypt— ^oLibyans, Sukkiim, and Ethiopians. 4 And he took ^pthe fortified cities of Judah and came as far as Jerusalem. 5 Then ^qShemaiah the prophet came to Rehoboam and to the princes of Judah, who had gathered at Jerusalem because of Shishak, and said to them, “Thus says the Lord, ^r‘You abandoned me, so I have abandoned you to the hand of Shishak.’”

9 ^s‘If disaster comes upon us, the sword, judgment, ^{▼▼Or the sword of judgment} or pestilence, or famine, ^uwe will stand before this house and before you— ^vfor your name is in this house—and cry out to you in our affliction, and you will hear and save.’ 10 And now behold, the men of ^wAmmon and Moab and ^xMount Seir, whom ^yyou would not let Israel invade when they came from the land of Egypt, ^zand whom they avoided and did not destroy— 11 behold, they reward us ^aaby coming to drive us out of your possession, which you have given us to inherit. 12 O our God, will you not ^abexecute judgment on them? For we are powerless against this great horde that is coming against us. We do not know what to do, but ^acour eyes are on you.”

13 Meanwhile all Judah stood before the Lord, with their little ones, their wives, and their children.
