16 King Solʹo·mon made 200 large shields of alloyed gold+ (600 shekels* of gold went on each shield)+ 17 and 300 bucklers* of alloyed gold (three miʹnas* of gold went on each buckler). Then the king put them in the House of the Forest of Lebʹa·non.+

25 In the fifth year of King Re·ho·boʹam, King Shiʹshak+ of Egypt came up against Jerusalem.+ 26 He took the treasures of the house of Jehovah and the treasures of the king’s house.*+ He took everything, including all the gold shields that Solʹo·mon had made.+ 27 So King Re·ho·boʹam made copper shields to replace them, and he entrusted them to the chiefs of the guard,* who guarded the entrance of the king’s house. 28 Whenever the king came to the house of Jehovah, the guards would carry them, and then they would return them to the guard chamber.
