Vendo, pois, o SENHOR que se humilharam, veio a palavra do SENHOR a Semaas, dizendo: Humilharam-se, no os destruirei; antes, em breve lhes darei socorro, para que o meu furor no se derrame sobre Jerusalm, por intermdio de Sisaque.
Vendo, pois, o SENHOR que se humilhavam, veio a palavra do SENHOR a Semaas, dizendo: Humilharam-se, no os destruirei; antes, em breve, lhes darei lugar de escaparem, para que o meu furor se no derrame sobre Jerusalm, pelas mos de Sisaque.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And when the Lord saw that they humbled themselves,.... Though but externally; the Lord takes notice of external humiliation, as he did of Ahab's, 1 Kings 21:29,
the word of the Lord came to Shemaiah, saying, they have humbled themselves, therefore I will not destroy them; not now, at least not altogether, 2 Chronicles 12:12,
but I will grant them some deliverance; yet not a complete one, for they were brought into servitude by Shishak, 2 Chronicles 12:8, or only for a short time:
and my wrath shall not be poured out against Jerusalem by the hand of Shishak; that is, to the uttermost; that was reserved to another time, and to be done by another hand, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Compare the repentance of Ahab (marginal reference) and that of the Ninevites Jonah 3:5-10 which produced similar revocations of divine decrees that had been pronounced by the mouth of a prophet.
Some deliverance - Rather, “deliverance for a short space” (see the margin). Because of the repentance, the threat cf immediate destruction was withdrawn; but the menace was still left impending, that the people might be the more moved to contrition and amendment.
