Leeser⁽ⁱ⁾ ²⁹ And it came to pass at that time when Jerobo’am went out of Jerusalem, that the prophet Achiyah the Shilonite found him on the way; and he had clad himself with a new garment; and these two were alone by themselves in the field; ³⁰ And Achiyah caught hold of the new garment that was on him, and rent it in twelve pieces; ³¹ And he said to Jerobo’am, Take thee ten pieces; for thus hath said the Lord, the God of Israel, Behold, I will rend the kingdom out of the hand of Solomon, and I will give to thee the ten tribes; ³² But the one tribe shall remain for him, on account of my servant David, and on account of Jerusalem, the city which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel; ³³ For the cause that they have forsaken me, and have bowed down to ‘Ashtoreth the divinity of the Zidonians, to Kemosh the god of Moab, and to Milcom the god of the children of ‘Ammon, and have not walked in my ways, to do what is right in my eyes, and my statutes and my ordinances, like David his father. ³⁴ Nevertheless will I not take the whole kingdom out of his hand; but I will let him remain prince all the days of his life for the sake of David my servant, whom I chose, who kept my commandments and my statutes; ³⁵ But I will take the kingdom out of the hand of his son, and I will give it unto thee, even the ten tribes. ³⁶ And unto his son will I give one tribe; so that there may remain a government for David my servant at all times before me in Jerusalem, the city which I have chosen for me, to put my name there. ³⁷ But thee will I take, and thou shalt reign over all that thy soul may long for; and thou shalt be king over Israel. ³⁸ And it shall be, if thou wilt hearken unto all that I shall command thee, and wilt walk in my ways, and do what is right in my eyes, to keep my statutes and my commandments, as David my servant did: that I will be with thee, and build thee a permanent house, as I have built for David, and I will give Israel unto thee. ³⁹ And I will afflict the seed of David for this; but not for all times.
