²⁷ King Rehoboam made bronze shields in their place and committed them into the care of the captains of the royal escorts^[a](A) who guarded the entrance to the king’s palace. ²⁸ Whenever the king entered the Lord’s temple, the royal escorts would carry the shields, then they would take them back to the royal escorts’ armory.^(B)

²⁹ The rest of the events of Rehoboam’s reign,^(C) along with all his accomplishments, are written about in the Historical Record of Judah’s Kings.
