1 Kings 14:1-5

14:1

At that time
<06256>

Abijah
<029>

the son
<01121>

of Jeroboam
<03379>

fell sick
<02470> (8804)_.

14:2

And Jeroboam
<03379>

said
<0559> (8799)

to his wife
<0802>_,

Arise
<06965> (8798)_,

I pray thee, and disguise
<08138> (8690)

thyself, that thou be not known
<03045> (8799)

to be the wife
<0802>

of Jeroboam
<03379>_;

and get
<01980> (8804)

thee to Shiloh
<07887>_:

behold, there [is] Ahijah
<0281>

the prophet
<05030>_,

which told
<01696> (8765)

me that [I should be] king
<04428>

over this people
<05971>_.

14:3

And take
<03947> (8804)

with thee
<03027>

ten
<06235>

loaves
<03899>_,

and cracknels
<05350>_,

and a cruse
<01228>

of honey
<01706>_,

and go
<0935> (8804)

to him: he shall tell
<05046> (8686)

thee what shall become of the child
<05288>_.

{with...: Heb. in thine hand} {cracknels: or, cakes} {cruse: or, bottle}

14:4

And Jeroboam's
<03379>

wife
<0802>

did so
<06213> (8799)_,

and arose
<06965> (8799)_,

and went
<03212> (8799)

to Shiloh
<07887>_,

and came
<0935> (8799)

to the house
<01004>

of Ahijah
<0281>_.

But Ahijah
<0281>

could
<03201> (8804)

not see
<07200> (8800)_;

for his eyes
<05869>

were set
<06965> (8804)

by reason of his age
<07869>_.

{were...: Heb. stood for his hoariness}

14:5

And the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8804)

unto Ahijah
<0281>_,

Behold, the wife
<0802>

of Jeroboam
<03379>

cometh
<0935> (8802)

to ask
<01875> (8800)

a thing
<01697>

of thee for her son
<01121>_;

for he [is] sick
<02470> (8802)_:

thus
<02090>

and thus shalt thou say
<01696> (8762)

unto her: for it shall be, when she cometh in
<0935> (8800)_,

that she shall feign herself [to be] another
<05234> (8693)

[woman].
