For where my father corrected you with scourges, I will chastise you with scorpions." ¹² And when Jeroboam and all the people were come to Rehoboam the third day — as the king appointed them, saying, "Come to me again this day three days" - ¹³ the king answered the people churlishly and left the advice that old men gave him: ¹⁴ and spake to them after the counsel of the young men, saying, "My father made your yoke grievous, but I will make it grievouser. For where my father chastised you with whips, I will chastise you with scorpions." ¹⁵ And so the king hearkened not unto the people: for the turning away was of the LORD, to perform his saying, which the LORD said by Ahijah the Shilonite unto Jeroboam the son of Nebat. ¹⁶ And when all Israel saw that the king regarded them not, the people answered the king again saying, "We have no part in David, nor inheritance in the son of Jesse.
