[1]And RehoboamH7346 wentH3212[H8799] to ShechemH7927: for all IsraelH3478 were comeH935[H8804] to ShechemH7927 to make him kingH4427.[H8687] |

[2]And it came to pass, when JeroboamH3379 the sonH1121 of NebatH5028, who was yet in EgyptH4714, heardH8085[H8800] of it, (for he was fledH1272[H8804] from the presenceH6440 of kingH4428 SolomonH8010, and JeroboamH3379 dweltH3427[H8799] in EgyptH4714;) |

[3]That they sentH7971[H8799] and calledH7121[H8799] him. And JeroboamH3379 and all the congregationH6951 of IsraelH3478 cameH935[H8799], and spakeH1696[H8762] unto RehoboamH7346, sayingH559,[H8800] |

[4]Thy fatherH1 madeH7185 our yokeH5923 grievousH7185[H8689]: now therefore make thou the grievousH7186 serviceH5656 of thy fatherH1, and his heavyH3515 yokeH5923 which he putH5414[H8804] upon us, lighterH7043[H8685], and we will serveH5647 theeH8799. |

[5]And he saidH559[H8799] unto them, DepartH3212[H8798] yet for threeH7969 daysH3117, then come againH7725[H8798] to me. And the peopleH5971 departedH3212.[H8799] |

[6]And kingH4428 RehoboamH7346 consultedH3289[H8735] with the old menH2205, that stoodH5975[H8802] beforeH6440 SolomonH8010 his fatherH1 while he yet livedH2416, and saidH559[H8800], How do ye adviseH3289[H8737] that I mayH7725[H8687] answerH1697 this peopleH5971? |
[No book] |
[7]And they spakeH1696[H8762] unto him, sayingH559[H8800], If thou wilt be a servantH5650 unto this peopleH5971 this dayH3117, and wilt serveH5647[H8804] them, and answerH6030[H8804] them, and speakH1696[H8765] goodH2896 wordsH1697 to them, then they will be thy servantsH5650 for everH3117. |
[No book] |
[8]But he forsookH5800[H8799] the counselH6098 of the old menH2205, which they had givenH3289[H8804] him, and consultedH3289[H8735] with the young menH3206 that were grown upH1431[H8804] with him, and which stoodH5975[H8802] before himH6440: |
[No book] |
[9]And he saidH559[H8799] unto them, What counsel giveH3289[H8737] ye that we mayH7725[H8686] answerH1697 this peopleH5971, who have spokenH1696[H8765] to me, sayingH559[H8800], MakeH7043 the yokeH5923 which thy fatherH1 did putH5414[H8804] upon us lighterH7043?[H8685] |
[No book] |
[10]And the young menH3206 that were grown upH1431[H8804] with him spakeH1696[H8762] unto him, sayingH559[H8800], Thus shalt thou speakH559[H8799] unto this peopleH5971 that spakeH1696[H8765] unto thee, sayingH559[H8800], Thy fatherH1 madeH3513 our yokeH5923 heavyH3513[H8689], but make thou it lighterH7043[H8685] unto us; thus shalt thou sayH1696[H8762] unto them, My littleH6995 finger shall be thickerH5666[H8804] than my father'sH1 loinsH4975. |
[No book] |
[11]And now whereas my fatherH1 did ladeH6006[H8689] you with a heavyH3515 yokeH5923, I will addH3254[H8686] to your yokeH5923: my fatherH1 hath chastisedH3256[H8765] you with whipsH7752, but I will chastiseH3256[H8762] you with scorpionsH6137. |
[No book] |
[12]So JeroboamH3379 and all the peopleH5971 cameH935[H8799] to RehoboamH7346 the thirdH7992 dayH3117, as the kingH4428 had appointedH1696[H8765], sayingH559[H8800], Come to me againH7725[H8798] the thirdH7992 dayH3117. |
[No book] |
[13]And the kingH4428 answeredH6030[H8799] the peopleH5971 roughlyH7186, and forsookH5800[H8799] the old men'sH2205 counselH6098 that they gaveH3289 himH8804; |
[No book] |
[14]And spakeH1696[H8762] to them after the counselH6098 of the young menH3206, sayingH559[H8800], My fatherH1 madeH3513 your yokeH5923 heavyH3513[H8689], and I will addH3254[H8686] to your yokeH5923: my fatherH1 also chastisedH3256[H8765] you with whipsH7752, but I will chastiseH3256[H8762] you with scorpionsH6137. |

[15]Wherefore the kingH4428 hearkenedH8085[H8804] not unto the peopleH5971; for the causeH5438 was from the LORDH3068, that he might performH6965[H8687] his sayingH1697, which the LORDH3068 spakeH1696[H8765] byH3027 AhijahH281 the ShiloniteH7888 unto JeroboamH3379 the sonH1121 of NebatH5028. |

[16]SoH7725[H8686] when all IsraelH3478 sawH7200[H8799] that the kingH4428 hearkenedH8085[H8804] not unto them, the peopleH5971 answeredH1697 the kingH4428, sayingH559[H8800], What portionH2506 have we in DavidH1732? neither have we inheritanceH5159 in the sonH1121 of JesseH3448: to your tentsH168, O IsraelH3478: now seeH7200[H8798] to thine own houseH1004, DavidH1732. So IsraelH3478 departedH3212[H8799] unto their tentsH168. |
[No book] |
[17]But as for the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 which dweltH3427[H8802] in the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063, RehoboamH7346 reignedH4427 over themH8799. |
[No book] |
[18]Then kingH4428 RehoboamH7346 sentH7971[H8799] AdoramH151, who was over the tributeH4522; and all IsraelH3478 stonedH7275[H8799] him with stonesH68, that he diedH4191[H8799]. Therefore kingH4428 RehoboamH7346 made speedH553[H8694] to get him upH5927[H8800] to his chariotH4818, to fleeH5127[H8800] to JerusalemH3389. |
[No book] |
[19]So IsraelH3478 rebelledH6586[H8799] against the houseH1004 of DavidH1732 unto this dayH3117. |
[No book] |
[20]And it came to pass, when all IsraelH3478 heardH8085[H8800] that JeroboamH3379 was come againH7725[H8804], that they sentH7971[H8799] and calledH7121[H8799] him unto the congregationH5712, and made him kingH4427[H8686] over all IsraelH3478: there was none that followedH310 the houseH1004 of DavidH1732, butH2108 the tribeH7626 of Judah onlyH3063. |
[No book] |
[21]And when RehoboamH7346 was comeH935[H8799] to JerusalemH3389, he assembledH6950[H8686] all the houseH1004 of JudahH3063, with the tribeH7626 of BenjaminH1144, an hundredH3967 and fourscoreH8084 thousandH505 chosen menH977[H8803], which were warriorsH6213[H8802][H4421], to fightH3898[H8736] against the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, to bringH7725 the kingdomH4410 againH7725[H8687] to RehoboamH7346 the sonH1121 of SolomonH8010. |
[No book] |
[22]But the wordH1697 of GodH430 came unto ShemaiahH8098 the manH376 of GodH430, sayingH559,[H8800] |
[No book] |
[23]SpeakH559[H8798] unto RehoboamH7346, the sonH1121 of SolomonH8010, kingH4428 of JudahH3063, and unto all the houseH1004 of JudahH3063 and BenjaminH1144, and to the remnantH3499 of the peopleH5971, sayingH559,[H8800] |
[No book] |
[24]Thus saithH559[H8804] the LORDH3068, Ye shall not go upH5927[H8799], nor fightH3898[H8735] against your brethrenH251 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478: returnH7725[H8798] every manH376 to his houseH1004; for this thingH1697 isH1961[H8738] from me. They hearkenedH8085[H8799] therefore to the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, and returnedH7725[H8799] to departH3212[H8800], according to the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068. |
[No book] |
[25]Then JeroboamH3379 builtH1129[H8799] ShechemH7927 in mountH2022 EphraimH669, and dweltH3427[H8799] therein; and went outH3318[H8799] from thence, and builtH1129[H8799] PenuelH6439. |
[No book] |
[26]And JeroboamH3379 saidH559[H8799] in his heartH3820, Now shall the kingdomH4467 returnH7725[H8799] to the houseH1004 of DavidH1732: |

[27]If this peopleH5971 go upH5927[H8799] to doH6213[H8800] sacrificeH2077 in the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068 at JerusalemH3389, then shall the heartH3820 of this peopleH5971 turn againH7725[H8804] unto their lordH113, even unto RehoboamH7346 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, and they shall killH2026[H8804] me, and go againH7725[H8804] to RehoboamH7346 kingH4428 of JudahH3063. |
[No book] |
[28]Whereupon the kingH4428 took counselH3289[H8735], and madeH6213[H8799] twoH8147 calvesH5695 of goldH2091, and saidH559[H8799] unto them, It is too muchH7227 for you to go upH5927[H8800] to JerusalemH3389: behold thy godsH430, O IsraelH3478, which brought thee upH5927[H8689] out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714. |
[No book] |
[29]And he setH7760[H8799] the oneH259 in BethelH1008, and the otherH259 putH5414[H8804] he in DanH1835. |
[No book] |
[30]And this thingH1697 became a sinH2403: for the peopleH5971 wentH3212[H8799] to worship beforeH6440 the oneH259, even unto DanH1835. |
[No book] |
[31]And he madeH6213[H8799] an houseH1004 of high placesH1116, and madeH6213[H8799] priestsH3548 of the lowestH7098 of the peopleH5971, which were not of the sonsH1121 of LeviH3878. |

[32]And JeroboamH3379 ordainedH6213[H8799] a feastH2282 in the eighthH8066 monthH2320, on the fifteenthH2568[H6240] dayH3117 of the monthH2320, like unto the feastH2282 that is in JudahH3063, and he offeredH5927[H8686] upon the altarH4196. So didH6213[H8804] he in BethelH1008, sacrificingH2076[H8763] unto the calvesH5695 that he had madeH6213[H8804]: and he placedH5975[H8689] in BethelH1008 the priestsH3548 of the high placesH1116 which he had madeH6213.[H8804] |
