6 The king and the leaders of Israel made themselves low in the Lord's sight. They said, "The Lord does what is right and fair." 7 The Lord saw they had made themselves low. So he gave a message to Shemaiah. It said, "They have made themselves low in my sight. So I will not destroy them. Instead, I will soon save them. I will not pour out my burning anger on Jerusalem through Shishak. 8 But its people will be brought under his control. Then they will learn the difference between serving me and serving the kings of other lands."
