H7346
And Rehoboam
H3212
went
H7927
to Shechem;
H3478
for all Israel
H935
were come
H7927
to Shechem
H4427
to make him king.
2
H3379
And it came to pass, when Jeroboam
H1121
the son
H5028
of Nebat
H8085
heard
H4714
of it, (for he was in Egypt,
H1272
whither he had fled
H6440
from the presence
H4428
of king
H8010
Solomon,)
H3379
that Jeroboam
H7725
returned
H4714
out of Egypt.
3
H7971
And they sent
H7121
and called
H3379
him; and Jeroboam
H3478
and all Israel
H935
came,
H1696
and they spake
H7346
to Rehoboam,
H559
saying,
4
H1
Thy father
H5923
made our yoke
H7185
grievous:
H7186
now therefore make thou the grievous
H5656
service
H1
of thy father,
H3515
and his heavy
H5923
yoke
H5414
which he put
H7043
upon us, lighter,
H5647
and we will serve thee.
5
H559
And he said
H7725
unto them, Come again
H7969
unto me after three
H3117
days.
H5971
And the people
H3212
departed.
6
H4428
And king
H7346
Rehoboam
H3289
took counsel
H2205
with the old
H5975
men, that had stood
H6440
before
H8010
Solomon
H1
his father
H2416
while he yet lived,
H559
saying,
H349
What
H3289
counsel give
H7725
ye me to return
H1697
answer
H5971
to this people?
7
H1696
And they spake
H559
unto him, saying,
H2896
If thou be kind
H5971
to this people,
H7521
and please
H1696
them, and speak
H2896
good
H1697
words
H5650
to them, then they will be thy servants
H3117
for ever.
8
H5800
But he forsook
H6098
the counsel
H2205
of the old men
H3289
which they had given
H3289
him, and took counsel
H3206
with the young men
H1431
that were grown up
H5975
with him, that stood
H6440
before him.
9
H559
And he said
H3289
unto them, What counsel
H7725
give ye, that we may return
H1697
answer
H5971
to this people,
H1696
who have spoken
H559
to me, saying,
H5923
Make the yoke
H1
that thy father
H5414
did put
H7043
upon us lighter?
10
H3206
And the young men
H1431
that were grown up
H1696
with him spake
H559
unto him, saying,
H559
Thus shalt thou say
H5971
unto the people
H1696
that spake
H559
unto thee, saying,
H1
Thy father
H3513
made
H5923
our yoke
H3513
heavy,
H7043
but make thou it lighter
H559
unto us; thus shalt thou say
H6995
unto them, My little
H5666
finger is thicker
H1
than my father's
H4975
loins.
11
H6258
And now whereas
H1
my father
H6006
did lade
H3515
you with a heavy
H5923
yoke,
H3254
I will add
H5923
to your yoke:
H1
my father
H3256
chastised
H7752
you with whips,
H6137
but I will chastise you with scorpions.
12
H3379
So Jeroboam
H5971
and all the people
H935
came
H7346
to Rehoboam
H7992
the third
H3117
day,
H4428
as the king
H1696
bade,
H559
saying,
H7725
Come to me again
H7992
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
H1696
and spake
H6098
to them after the counsel
H3206
of the young men,
H559
saying,
H1
My father
H5923
made your yoke
H3513
heavy,
H3254
but I will add
H1
thereto: my father
H3256
chastised
H7752
you with whips,
H6137
but I will chastise you with scorpions.
15
H4428
So the king
H8085
hearkened
H5971
not unto the people;
H5252
for it was brought
H430
about of God,
H3068
that Jehovah
H6965
might establish
H1697
his word,
H1696
which he spake
H3027
by
H281
Ahijah
H7888
the Shilonite
H3379
to Jeroboam
H1121
the son
H5028
of Nebat.
16
H3478
And when all Israel
H7200
saw
H4428
that the king
H8085
hearkened
H5971
not unto them, the people
H7725
answered
H4428
the king,
H559
saying,
H2506
What portion
H1732
have we in David?
H5159
neither have we inheritance
H1121
in the son
H3448
of Jesse:
H376
every man
H168
to your tents,
H3478
O Israel:
H7200
now see
H1004
to thine own house,
H1732
David.
H3478
So all Israel
H3212
departed
H168
unto their tents.
17
H1121
But as for the children
H3478
of Israel
H3427
that dwelt
H5892
in the cities
H3063
of Judah,
H7346
Rehoboam
H4427
reigned over them.
18
H4428
Then king
H7346
Rehoboam
H7971
sent
H1913
Hadoram,
H4522
who was over the men subject to taskwork;
H1121
and the children
H3478
of Israel
H7275
stoned
H4191
him to death
H68
with stones.
H4428
And king
H7346
Rehoboam
H553
made speed
H5927
to get him up
H4818
to his chariot,
H5127
to flee
H3389
to Jerusalem.
