1 Kings 12:1-21
And it came to pass, when Jeroboam
<03379>
<03379>
the son
<01121>
<01121>
of Nebat
<05028>_,
<05028>_,
who was yet in Egypt
<04714>_,
<04714>_,
from the presence
<06440>
<06440>
of king
<04428>
<04428>
Solomon
<08010>_,
<08010>_,
and Jeroboam
<03379>
<03379>
in Egypt
<04714>;)
<04714>;)
him. And Jeroboam
<03379>
<03379>
and all the congregation
<06951>
<06951>
of Israel
<03478>
<03478>
unto Rehoboam
<07346>_,
<07346>_,
Thy father
<01>
<01>
our yoke
<05923>
<05923>
now therefore make thou the grievous
<07186>
<07186>
service
<05656>
<05656>
of thy father
<01>_,
<01>_,
and his heavy
<03515>
<03515>
yoke
<05923>
thee.<05923>
And king
<04428>
<04428>
Rehoboam
<07346>
<07346>
with the old men
<02205>_,
<02205>_,
before
<06440>
<06440>
Solomon
<08010>
<08010>
his father
<01>
<01>
while he yet lived
<02416>_,
<02416>_,
answer
<01697>
<01697>
this people
<05971>_?
<05971>_?
If thou wilt be a servant
<05650>
<05650>
unto this people
<05971>
<05971>
this day
<03117>_,
<03117>_,
good
<02896>
<02896>
words
<01697>
<01697>
to them, then they will be thy servants
<05650>
<05650>
for ever
<03117>_.
<03117>_.
And the young men
<03206>
<03206>
unto this people
<05971>
<05971>
Thy father
<01>
<01>
our yoke
<05923>
<05923>
unto them, My little
<06995>
<06995>
than my father's
<01>
<01>
loins
<04975>_.
<04975>_.
And now whereas my father
<01>
<01>
you with a heavy
<03515>
<03515>
yoke
<05923>_,
<05923>_,
to your yoke
<05923>_:
<05923>_:
my father
<01>
<01>
you with whips
<07752>_,
<07752>_,
you with scorpions
<06137>_.
<06137>_.
So Jeroboam
<03379>
<03379>
and all the people
<05971>
<05971>
to Rehoboam
<07346>
<07346>
the third
<07992>
<07992>
day
<03117>_,
<03117>_,
as the king
<04428>
<04428>
the third
<07992>
<07992>
day
<03117>_.
<03117>_.
And the king
<04428>
<04428>
the people
<05971>
<05971>
roughly
<07186>_,
<07186>_,
the old men's
<02205>
<02205>
counsel
<06098>
him; {roughly: Heb. hardly}<06098>
to them after the counsel
<06098>
<06098>
of the young men
<03206>_,
<03206>_,
My father
<01>
<01>
your yoke
<05923>
<05923>
to your yoke
<05923>_:
<05923>_:
my father
<01>
<01>
you with whips
<07752>_,
<07752>_,
you with scorpions
<06137>_.
<06137>_.
Wherefore the king
<04428>
<04428>
not unto the people
<05971>_;
<05971>_;
for the cause
<05438>
<05438>
was from the LORD
<03068>_,
<03068>_,
his saying
<01697>_,
<01697>_,
which the LORD
<03068>
<03068>
by
<03027>
<03027>
Ahijah
<0281>
<0281>
the Shilonite
<07888>
<07888>
unto Jeroboam
<03379>
<03379>
the son
<01121>
<01121>
of Nebat
<05028>_.
<05028>_.
when all Israel
<03478>
<03478>
that the king
<04428>
<04428>
not unto them, the people
<05971>
<05971>
answered
<01697>
<01697>
the king
<04428>_,
<04428>_,
What portion
<02506>
<02506>
have we in David
<01732>_?
<01732>_?
neither [have we] inheritance
<05159>
<05159>
in the son
<01121>
<01121>
of Jesse
<03448>_:
<03448>_:
to your tents
<0168>_,
<0168>_,
O Israel
<03478>_:
<03478>_:
to thine own house
<01004>_,
<01004>_,
David
<01732>_.
<01732>_.
So Israel
<03478>
<03478>
unto their tents
<0168>_.
<0168>_.
But [as for] the children
<01121>
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
<03478>
in the cities
<05892>
<05892>
of Judah
<03063>_,
<03063>_,
Rehoboam
<07346>
over them.<07346>
Then king
<04428>
<04428>
Rehoboam
<07346>
<07346>
Adoram
<0151>_,
<0151>_,
who [was] over the tribute
<04522>_;
<04522>_;
and all Israel
<03478>
<03478>
him with stones
<068>_,
<068>_,
Therefore king
<04428>
<04428>
Rehoboam
<07346>
<07346>
to his chariot
<04818>_,
<04818>_,
to Jerusalem
<03389>_.
{made...: Heb. strengthened himself}<03389>_.
So Israel
<03478>
<03478>
against the house
<01004>
<01004>
of David
<01732>
<01732>
unto this day
<03117>_.
{rebelled: or, fell away}<03117>_.
And it came to pass, when all Israel
<03478>
<03478>
that Jeroboam
<03379>
<03379>
him unto the congregation
<05712>_,
<05712>_,
over all Israel
<03478>_:
<03478>_:
there was none that followed
<0310>
<0310>
the house
<01004>
<01004>
of David
<01732>_,
<01732>_,
but
<02108>
<02108>
the tribe
<07626>
<07626>
of Judah
<03063>
only.<03063>
And when Rehoboam
<07346>
<07346>
to Jerusalem
<03389>_,
<03389>_,
all the house
<01004>
<01004>
of Judah
<03063>_,
<03063>_,
with the tribe
<07626>
<07626>
of Benjamin
<01144>_,
<01144>_,
an hundred
<03967>
<03967>
and fourscore
<08084>
<08084>
thousand
<0505>
<0505>
against the house
<01004>
<01004>
of Israel
<03478>_,
<03478>_,
the kingdom
<04410>
<04410>
to Rehoboam
<07346>
<07346>
the son
<01121>
<01121>
of Solomon
<08010>_.
