Setiap kali raja masuk ke rumah TUHAN, bentara-bentara membawa masuk perisai-perisai itu, dan mereka pula yang mengembalikannya ke kamar jaga para bentara.
Maka setiap-tiap kali baginda pergi ke rumah Tuhan perisai itupun dipikul oleh segala biduanda, kemudian dikembalikannya ke dalam bilik biduanda.

the guard chamber: 2 Chronicles 12:11
Reciprocal: Nehemiah 3:16 - the house Isaiah 22:8 - the armour
Gill's Notes on the Bible
And it was so, when the king went into the house of the Lord,.... The temple; for though he had fallen into idolatry, he had not wholly forsaken the worship of God in the temple, and perhaps by the late humbling providence he might be stirred up to attend there more frequently:
that the guard bare them: before him, partly for pomp and grandeur, and partly to keep in awe such as were inclined to mutiny and sedition:
and brought them back into the guard chamber; when the king returned, the place where the guard lodged and slept by turns.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
It appears from this verse that Rehoboam, notwithstanding that he encouraged, and perhaps secretly practiced, idolatry (1 Kings 14:22-24, compare 1Ki 15:3, 1 Kings 15:12; 2 Chronicles 12:1), maintained a public profession of faith in Yahweh, and attended in state the temple services. Compare the conduct of Solomon, 1 Kings 9:25.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 1 Kings 14:28. The guard bare them — The guard probably were just three hundred, answering to the number of the shields.
