H7346
And Rehoboam
H3212
went
H7927
to Shechem:
H7927
for to Shechem
H3605
were all
H3478
Israel
H935
come
H4427
to make him king.
2
H1961
And it came
H3379
to pass, when Jeroboam
H1121
the son
H5028
of Nebat,
H1931
who
H4714
was in Egypt,
H834
where
H1272
he fled
H6440
from the presence
H8010
of Solomon
H4428
the king,
H8085
heard
H3379
it, that Jeroboam
H7725
returned
H4714
out of Egypt.
3
H7971
And they sent
H7121
and called
H3379
him. So Jeroboam
H3605
and all
H3478
Israel
H935
came
H1696
and spoke
H7346
to Rehoboam,
H559
saying,
4
H25
Your father
H5923
made our yoke
H7185
grievous:
H6258
now
H7043
therefore ease
H7186
you somewhat the grievous
H5656
servitude
H25
of your father,
H3515
and his heavy
H5923
yoke
H5414
that he put
H5647
on us, and we will serve you.
5
H559
And he said
H7725
to them, Come
H7725
again
H7969
to me after three
H3117
days.
H5971
And the people
H3212
departed.
6
H4428
And king
H7346
Rehoboam
H3289
took counsel
H2205
with the old
H1961
men that had
H5975
stood
H6440
before
H8010
Solomon
H25
his father
H2416
while he yet lived,
H559
saying,
H349
What
H3289
counsel
H7725
give you me to return
H1697
answer
H2088
to this
H5971
people?
7
H1696
And they spoke
H559
to him, saying,
H518
If
H2896
you be kind
H2088
to this
H5971
people,
H7521
and please
H1696
them, and speak
H2896
good
H1697
words
H5650
to them, they will be your servants
H3605
for ever.
H3117
8
H5800
But he forsook
H6098
the counsel
H834
which
H2205
the old
H3289
men gave
H3289
him, and took counsel
H3206
with the young
H1431
men that were brought
H6440
up with him, that stood before him.
9
H559
And he said
H4100
to them, What
H3289
advice
H7725
give you that we may return
H1697
answer
H2088
to this
H5971
people,
H834
which
H1696
have spoken
H559
to me, saying,
H7043
Ease
H5923
somewhat the yoke
H25
that your father
H5414
did put on us?
10
H3206
And the young
H1431
men that were brought
H1696
up with him spoke
H559
to him, saying,
H3541
Thus
H559
shall you answer
H5971
the people
H1696
that spoke
H559
to you, saying,
H25
Your father
H5923
made our yoke
H3513
heavy,
H7043
but make you it somewhat lighter
H3541
for us; thus
H559
shall you say
H6996
to them, My little
H5666
finger shall be thicker
H1
than my father’s
H4975
loins.
11
H6258
For whereas
H25
my father
H6006
put
H3515
a heavy
H5923
yoke
H3254
on you, I will put
H3254
more
H5923
to your yoke:
H25
my father
H3256
chastised
H7752
you with whips,
H6137
but I will chastise you with scorpions.
12
H3379
So Jeroboam
H3605
and all
H5971
the people
H935
came
H7346
to Rehoboam
H7992
on the third
H3117
day,
H4428
as the king
H1696
bade,
H559
saying,
H7725
Come
H7725
again
H7992
to me on the third
H3117
day.
13
H4428
And the king
H6030
answered
H7186
them roughly;
H4428
and king
H7346
Rehoboam
H5800
forsook
H6098
the counsel
H2205
of the old men,
14
H1697
And answered
H6098
them after the advice
H3206
of the young
H559
men, saying,
H25
My father
H5923
made your yoke
H3513
heavy,
H3254
but I will add
H5921
thereto:
H25
my father
H3256
chastised
H7752
you with whips,
H6137
but I will chastise you with scorpions.
15
H4428
So the king
H8085
listened
H5971
not to the people:
H5252
for the cause
H430
was of God,
H3068
that the LORD
H6965
might perform
H1697
his word,
H834
which
H1696
he spoke
H3027
by the hand
H281
of Ahijah
H7888
the Shilonite
H3379
to Jeroboam
H1121
the son
H5028
of Nebat.
16
H3605
And when all
H3478
Israel
H7200
saw
H4428
that the king
H8085
would not listen
H5971
to them, the people
H7725
answered
H4428
the king,
H559
saying,
H4100
What
H2506
portion
H1732
have we in David?
H3808
and we have none
H5159
inheritance
H1121
in the son
H3448
of Jesse:
H376
every man
H168
to your tents,
H3478
O Israel:
H6258
and now,
H1732
David,
H7200
see
H1004
to your own house.
H3605
So all
H3478
Israel
H3212
went
H168
to their tents.
17
H1121
But as for the children
H3478
of Israel
H3427
that dwelled
H5892
in the cities
H3063
of Judah,
H7346
Rehoboam
H4427
reigned
H5921
over them.
18
H4428
Then king
H7346
Rehoboam
H7971
sent
H1913
Hadoram
H5921
that was over
H4522
the tribute;
H1121
and the children
H3478
of Israel
H7275
stoned
H68
him with stones,
H4191
that he died.
H4428
But king
H7346
Rehoboam
H553
made speed
H5927
to get
H4818
him up to his chariot,
H5127
to flee
H3389
to Jerusalem.
