Divrey Hayamim Bais 12:6-8

Orthodox Jewish Bible

⁶ Whereupon the Sarim (princes) of Yisroel and HaMelech humbled themselves; and they said, Tzaddik Hashem.

⁷ And when Hashem saw that they humbled themselves, the Devar Hashem came to Shemayah, saying, They have humbled themselves; therefore I will not destroy them, but I will grant them some peleitah (deliverance, rescue); and My chamah (anger, wrath) shall not be poured out upon Yerushalayim by the yad Shishak.

⁸ Nevertheless they shall be his avadim; that they may differentiate My avodah, and the avodat mamlechut of the lands.
