1 Kings 11:26And Jeroboam son of Nebat, an Ephrathite of Zereda—the name of whose mother is Zeruah, a widow woman—servant to Solomon, he also lifteth up a hand against the king;1 Kings 11:27and this is the thing for which he lifted up a hand against the king: Solomon built Millo—he shut up the breach of the city of David his father,1 Kings 11:28and the man Jeroboam is mighty in valour, and Solomon seeth the young man that he is doing business, and appointeth him over all the burden of the house of Joseph.1 Kings 11:29And it cometh to pass, at that time, that Jeroboam hath gone out from Jerusalem, and Ahijah the Shilonite, the prophet, findeth him in the way, and he is covering himself with a new garment; and both of them are by themselves in a field,1 Kings 11:30and Ahijah layeth hold on the new garment that is on him, and rendeth it—twelve pieces,1 Kings 11:31and saith to Jeroboam, ‘Take to thee ten pieces, for thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, lo, I am rending the kingdom out of the hand of Solomon, and have given to thee the ten tribes,1 Kings 11:32and the one tribe he hath for My servant David’s sake, and for Jerusalem’s sake, the city which I have fixed on, out of all the tribes of Israel.1 Kings 11:33Because they have forsaken Me, and bow themselves to Ashtoreth, goddess of the Zidonians, to Chemosh god of Moab, and to Milcom god of the sons of Ammon, and have not walked in My ways, to do that which is right in Mine eyes, and My statutes and My judgments, like David his father.1 Kings 11:34‘And I do not take the whole of the kingdom out of his hand, for prince I make him all days of his life, for the sake of David My servant whom I chose, who kept My commands and My statutes;1 Kings 11:35and I have taken the kingdom out of the hand of his son, and given it to thee—the ten tribes;1 Kings 11:36and to his son I give one tribe, for there being a lamp to David My servant all the days before Me in Jerusalem, the city that I have chosen to Myself to put My name there.1 Kings 11:37‘And thee I take, and thou hast reigned over all that thy soul desireth, and thou hast been king over Israel;1 Kings 11:38and it hath been, if thou dost hear all that I command thee, and hast walked in My ways, and done that which is right in Mine eyes, to keep My statutes and My commands, as did David My servant, that I have been with thee, and have built for thee a stedfast house, as I built for David, and have given to thee Israel,1 Kings 11:39and I humble the seed of David for this; only, not all the days.’1 Kings 11:40And Solomon seeketh to put Jeroboam to death, and Jeroboam riseth and fleeth to Egypt, unto Shishak king of Egypt, and he is in Egypt till the death of Solomon.1 Kings 12:1And Rehoboam goeth to Shechem, for to Shechem hath all Israel come to make him king.1 Kings 12:2And it cometh to pass, at Jeroboam son of Nebat’s hearing (and he is yet in Egypt where he hath fled from the presence of Solomon the king, and Jeroboam dwelleth in Egypt),1 Kings 12:3that they send and call for him; and they come—Jeroboam and all the assembly of Israel—and speak unto Rehoboam, saying,1 Kings 12:4Thy father made hard our yoke, and thou, now, make light some of the hard service of thy father, and his heavy yoke that he put upon us, and we serve thee.’1 Kings 12:5And he saith unto them, ‘Go—yet three days, and come back unto me;’ and the people go.1 Kings 12:6And king Rehoboam consulteth with the elders who have been standing in the presence of Solomon his father, in his being alive, saying, ‘How are ye counselling to answer this people?’1 Kings 12:7And they speak unto him, saying, ‘If, to-day, thou art servant to this people, and hast served them, and answered them, and spoken unto them good words, then they have been to thee servants all the days.’1 Kings 12:8And he forsaketh the counsel of the elders which they counselled him, and consulteth with the lads who have grown up with him, who are standing before him;1 Kings 12:9and he saith unto them, ‘What are ye counselling, and we answer this people, who have spoken unto me, saying, Lighten somewhat of the yoke that thy father put upon us?’1 Kings 12:10And they speak unto him—the lads who had grown up with him—saying, ‘Thus dost thou say to this people who have spoken unto thee, saying, Thy father made our yoke heavy, and thou, make it light upon us; thus dost thou speak unto them, My little finger is thicker than the loins of my father;1 Kings 12:11and now, my father laid on you a heavy yoke, and I add to your yoke; my father chastised you with whips, and I—I chastise you with scorpions.’1 Kings 12:12And they come—Jeroboam and all the people—unto Rehoboam, on the third day, as the king had spoken, saying, ‘Come back unto me on the third day.’1 Kings 12:13And the king answereth the people sharply, and forsaketh the counsel of the elders which they counselled him,1 Kings 12:14and speaketh unto them, according to the counsel of the lads, saying, ‘My father made your yoke heavy, and I add to your yoke; my father chastised you with whips, and I—I chastise you with scorpions;’1 Kings 12:15and the king hearkened not unto the people, for the revolution was from Jehovah, in order to establish His word that Jehovah spake by the hand of Ahijah the Shilonite unto Jeroboam son of Nebat.1 Kings 12:16And all Israel see that the king hath not hearkened unto them, and the people send the king back word, saying, ‘What portion have we in David? yea, there is no inheritance in the son of Jesse; to thy tents, O Israel; now see thy house, O David!’ and Israel goeth to its tents.1 Kings 12:17As to the sons of Israel, those dwelling in the cities of Judah—over them reign doth Rehoboam.1 Kings 12:18And king Rehoboam sendeth Adoram who is over the tribute, and all Israel cast at him stones, and he dieth; and king Rehoboam hath strengthened himself to go up into a chariot to flee to Jerusalem;1 Kings 12:19and Israel transgresseth against the house of David unto this day.1 Kings 12:20And it cometh to pass, at all Israel’s hearing that Jeroboam hath returned, that they send and call him unto the company, and cause him to reign over all Israel; none hath been after the house of David save the tribe of Judah alone.1 Kings 12:25And Jeroboam buildeth Shechem in the hill-country of Ephraim, and dwelleth in it, and goeth out thence, and buildeth Penuel;1 Kings 12:26and Jeroboam saith in his heart, ‘Now doth the kingdom turn back to the house of David—1 Kings 12:27if this people go up to make sacrifices in the house of Jehovah in Jerusalem, then hath the heart of this people turned back unto their lord, unto Rehoboam king of Judah, and they have slain me, and turned back unto Rehoboam king of Judah.’1 Kings 12:28And the king taketh counsel, and maketh two calves of gold, and saith unto them, ‘Enough to you of going up to Jerusalem; lo, thy gods, O Israel, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.’1 Kings 12:29And he setteth the one in Beth-El, and the other he hath put in Dan,1 Kings 12:30and this thing becometh a sin, and the people go before the one—unto Dan.1 Kings 12:31And he maketh the house of high places, and maketh priests of the extremities of the people, who were not of the sons of Levi;1 Kings 12:32and Jeroboam maketh a festival in the eighth month, in the fifteenth day of the month, like the festival that is in Judah, and he offereth on the altar—so did he in Beth-El—to sacrifice to the calves which he made, and he hath appointed in Beth-El the priests of the high places that he made.1 Kings 12:33And he offereth up on the altar that he made in Beth-El, on the fifteenth day of the eighth month, in the month that he devised of his own heart, and he maketh a festival to the sons of Israel, and offereth on the altar—to make perfume.1 Kings 13:1And lo, a man of God hath come from Judah, by the word of Jehovah, unto Beth-El, and Jeroboam is standing by the altar—to make perfume;1 Kings 13:2and he calleth against the altar, by the word of Jehovah, and saith, ‘Altar! altar! thus said Jehovah, Lo, a son is born to the house of David—Josiah his name—and he hath sacrificed on thee the priests of the high places who are making perfume on thee, and bones of man are burnt on thee.’1 Kings 13:3And he hath given on that day a sign, saying, ‘This is the sign that Jehovah hath spoken, Lo, the altar is rent, and the ashes poured forth that are on it.’1 Kings 13:4And it cometh to pass, at the king’s hearing the word of the man of God that he calleth against the altar in Beth-El, that Jeroboam putteth forth his hand from off the altar, saying, ‘Catch him;’ and his hand is dried up that he hath put forth against him, and he is not able to bring it back unto him,1 Kings 13:5and the altar is rent, and the ashes poured forth from the altar, according to the sign that the man of God had given by the word of Jehovah.1 Kings 13:6And the king answereth and saith unto the man of God, ‘Appease, I pray thee, the face of Jehovah thy God, and pray for me, and my hand doth come back unto me;’ and the man of God appeaseth the face of Jehovah, and the hand of the king cometh back unto him, and it is as at the beginning.1 Kings 13:7And the king speaketh unto the man of God, ‘Come in with me to the house, and refresh thyself, and I give to thee a gift.’1 Kings 13:8And the man of God saith unto the king, ‘If thou dost give to me the half of thine house, I do not go in with thee, nor do I eat bread, nor do I drink water, in this place;1 Kings 13:9for so He commanded me by the word of Jehovah, saying, Thou dost not eat bread nor drink water, nor turn back in the way that thou hast come.’1 Kings 13:10And he goeth on in another way, and hath not turned back in the way in which he came in unto Beth-El.1 Kings 13:33After this thing Jeroboam hath not turned from his evil way, and turneth back, and maketh of the extremities of the people priests of high places; he who is desirous he consecrateth his hand, and he is of the priests of the high places.1 Kings 13:34And in this thing is the sin of the house of Jeroboam, even to cut it off, and to destroy it from off the face of the ground.1 Kings 14:1At that time was Abijah son of Jeroboam sick,1 Kings 14:2and Jeroboam saith to his wife, ‘Rise, I pray thee, and change thyself, and they know not that thou art wife of Jeroboam, and thou hast gone to Shiloh; lo, there is Ahijah the prophet; he spake unto me of being king over this people;1 Kings 14:3and thou hast taken in thy hand ten loaves, and crumbs, and a bottle of honey, and hast gone in unto him; he doth declare to thee what becometh of the youth.’1 Kings 14:4And the wife of Jeroboam doth so, and riseth, and goeth to Shiloh, and entereth the house of Ahijah, and Ahijah is not able to see, for his eyes have stood because of his age.
