Verse 3 is found in chapter 12 of 2 Chronicles. After becoming established, Rehoboam abandons God’s law and Egypt invades Judah. The chronicler establishes a direct relationship between the king’s unfaithfulness and the kingdom’s vulnerability. The loss of fortified cities shows that material defenses do not guarantee security when the community breaks its dependence on God.

Il avait mille deux cents chars et soixante mille cavaliers; et il vint d'Egypte avec lui un peuple innombrable, des Libyens, des Sukkiens et des Ethiopiens.
con mille dugento carri, e con sessantamila cavalieri, e popolo senza fine, ch’era venuto con lui di Egitto, Libii, Succhei, ed Etiopi;
Com mil e duzentos carros e com sessenta mil cavaleiros; e era inumerável o povo que vinha com ele do Egito, de líbios, suquitas e etíopes.
