And RehoboamH7346 wentH3212 to ShechemH7927: for to ShechemH7927 were all IsraelH3478 comeH935 to make him kingH4427.
And it came to pass, when JeroboamH3379 the sonH1121 of NebatH5028, who was in EgyptH4714, whither he had fledH1272 from the presenceH6440 of SolomonH8010 the kingH4428, heardH8085 it, that JeroboamH3379 returnedH7725 out of EgyptH4714.
And they sentH7971 and calledH7121 him. So JeroboamH3379 and all IsraelH3478 cameH935 and spakeH1696 to RehoboamH7346, sayingH559,
Thy fatherH1 made our yokeH5923 grievousH7185: now therefore easeH7043 thou somewhat the grievousH7186 servitudeH5656 of thy fatherH1, and his heavyH3515 yokeH5923 that he putH5414 upon us, and we will serveH5647 thee.
And he saidH559 unto them, Come againH7725 unto me after threeH7969 daysH3117. And the peopleH5971 departedH3212.
And kingH4428 RehoboamH7346 took counselH3289 with the oldH2205 men that had stoodH5975 beforeH6440 SolomonH8010 his fatherH1 while he yet livedH2416, sayingH559, WhatH349 counsel giveH3289 ye me to returnH7725 answerH1697 to this peopleH5971?
And they spakeH1696 unto him, sayingH559, If thou be kindH2896 to this peopleH5971, and pleaseH7521 them, and speakH1696 goodH2896 wordsH1697 to them, they will be thy servantsH5650 for everH3117.
But he forsookH5800 the counselH6098 which the old menH2205 gaveH3289 him, and took counselH3289 with the young menH3206 that were brought upH1431 with him, that stoodH5975 beforeH6440 him.
And he saidH559 unto them, What adviceH3289 give ye that we may returnH7725 answerH1697 to this peopleH5971, which have spokenH1696 to me, sayingH559, EaseH7043 somewhat the yokeH5923 that thy fatherH1 did putH5414 upon us?
And the young menH3206 that were brought upH1431 with him spakeH1696 unto him, sayingH559, Thus shalt thou answerH559 the peopleH5971 that spakeH1696 unto thee, sayingH559, Thy fatherH1 madeH3513 our yokeH5923 heavyH3513, but make thou it somewhat lighterH7043 for us; thus shalt thou sayH559 unto them, My littleH6995 finger shall be thickerH5666 than my father'sH1 loinsH4975.
For whereasH6258 my fatherH1 putH6006 a heavyH3515 yokeH5923 upon you, I will put moreH3254 to your yokeH5923: my fatherH1 chastisedH3256 you with whipsH7752, but I will chastise you with scorpionsH6137. {my father put: Heb. my father laded}
So JeroboamH3379 and all the peopleH5971 cameH935 to RehoboamH7346 on the thirdH7992 dayH3117, as the kingH4428 badeH1696, sayingH559, Come againH7725 to me on the thirdH7992 dayH3117.
And the kingH4428 answeredH6030 them roughlyH7186; and kingH4428 RehoboamH7346 forsookH5800 the counselH6098 of the old menH2205,
And answeredH1696 them after the adviceH6098 of the young menH3206, sayingH559, My fatherH1 made your yokeH5923 heavyH3513, but I will addH3254 thereto: my fatherH1 chastisedH3256 you with whipsH7752, but I will chastise you with scorpionsH6137.
So the kingH4428 hearkenedH8085 not unto the peopleH5971: for the causeH5252 was of GodH430, that the LORDH3068 might performH6965 his wordH1697, which he spakeH1696 by the handH3027 of AhijahH281 the ShiloniteH7888 to JeroboamH3379 the sonH1121 of NebatH5028.
And when all IsraelH3478 sawH7200 that the kingH4428 would not hearkenH8085 unto them, the peopleH5971 answeredH7725 the kingH4428, sayingH559, What portionH2506 have we in DavidH1732? and we have none inheritanceH5159 in the sonH1121 of JesseH3448: every manH376 to your tentsH168, O IsraelH3478: and now, DavidH1732, seeH7200 to thine own houseH1004. So all IsraelH3478 wentH3212 to their tentsH168.
But as for the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 that dweltH3427 in the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063, RehoboamH7346 reignedH4427 over them.
Then kingH4428 RehoboamH7346 sentH7971 HadoramH1913 that was over the tributeH4522; and the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 stonedH7275 him with stonesH68, that he diedH4191. But kingH4428 RehoboamH7346 made speedH553 to get him upH5927 to his chariotH4818, to fleeH5127 to JerusalemH3389. {made speed: Heb. strengthened himself}
And IsraelH3478 rebelledH6586 against the houseH1004 of DavidH1732 unto this dayH3117.

Wherefore thus saithH559 the Holy OneH6918 of IsraelH3478, Because ye despiseH3988 this wordH1697, and trustH982 in oppressionH6233 and perversenessH3868, and stayH8172 thereon: {oppression: or, fraud}
And it came to pass, as he talkedH1696 with him, that the king saidH559 unto him, Art thou madeH5414 of the king'sH4428 counselH3289? forbearH2308; why shouldest thou be smittenH5221? Then the prophetH5030 forbareH2308, and saidH559, I knowH3045 that GodH430 hath determinedH3289 to destroyH7843 thee, because thou hast doneH6213 this, and hast not hearkenedH8085 unto my counselH6098. {determined: Heb. counselled}
Then AmaziahH558 kingH4428 of JudahH3063 took adviceH3289, and sentH7971 to JoashH3101, the sonH1121 of JehoahazH3059, the sonH1121 of JehuH3058, kingH4428 of IsraelH3478, sayingH559, ComeH3212, let us see one anotherH7200 in the faceH6440.
And JoashH3101 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 sentH7971 to AmaziahH558 kingH4428 of JudahH3063, sayingH559, The thistleH2336 that was in LebanonH3844 sentH7971 to the cedarH730 that was in LebanonH3844, sayingH559, GiveH5414 thy daughterH1323 to my sonH1121 to wifeH802: and there passed byH5674 a wildH7704 beastH2416 that was in LebanonH3844, and trode downH7429 the thistleH2336. {thistle: or, furze bush, or, thorn} {a wild…: Heb. a beast of the field}
Thou sayestH559, Lo, thou hast smittenH5221 the EdomitesH123; and thine heartH3820 lifteth thee upH5375 to boastH3513: abideH3427 now at homeH1004; why shouldest thou meddleH1624 to thine hurtH7451, that thou shouldest fallH5307, even thou, and JudahH3063 with thee?
But AmaziahH558 would not hearH8085; for it came of GodH430, that he might deliverH5414 them into the handH3027 of their enemies, because they soughtH1875 after the godsH430 of EdomH123.
And it came to pass at that timeH6256 when JeroboamH3379 went outH3318 of JerusalemH3389, that the prophetH5030 AhijahH281 the ShiloniteH7888 foundH4672 him in the wayH1870; and he had cladH3680 himself with a newH2319 garmentH8008; and they twoH8147 were alone in the fieldH7704:
And AhijahH281 caughtH8610 the newH2319 garmentH8008 that was on him, and rentH7167 it in twelveH8147+H6240 piecesH7168:
And he saidH559 to JeroboamH3379, TakeH3947 thee tenH6235 piecesH7168: for thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, Behold, I will rendH7167 the kingdomH4467 out of the handH3027 of SolomonH8010, and will giveH5414 tenH6235 tribesH7626 to thee:
(But he shall have oneH259 tribeH7626 for my servantH5650 David'sH1732 sake, and for Jerusalem'sH3389 sake, the cityH5892 which I have chosenH977 out of all the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478:)
Because that they have forsakenH5800 me, and have worshippedH7812 AshtorethH6253 the goddessH430 of the ZidoniansH6722, ChemoshH3645 the godH430 of the MoabitesH4124, and MilcomH4445 the godH430 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983, and have not walkedH1980 in my waysH1870, to doH6213 that which is rightH3477 in mine eyesH5869, and to keep my statutesH2708 and my judgmentsH4941, as did DavidH1732 his fatherH1.
Howbeit I will not takeH3947 the whole kingdomH4467 out of his handH3027: but I will makeH7896 him princeH5387 all the daysH3117 of his lifeH2416 for DavidH1732 my servant'sH5650 sake, whom I choseH977, because he keptH8104 my commandmentsH4687 and my statutesH2708:
But I will takeH3947 the kingdomH4410 out of his son'sH1121 handH3027, and will giveH5414 it unto thee, even tenH6235 tribesH7626.
And unto his sonH1121 will I giveH5414 oneH259 tribeH7626, that DavidH1732 my servantH5650 may have a lightH5216 alwayH3117 beforeH6440 me in JerusalemH3389, the cityH5892 which I have chosenH977 me to putH7760 my nameH8034 there. {light: Heb. lamp, or, candle}
And I will takeH3947 thee, and thou shalt reignH4427 according to all that thy soulH5315 desirethH183, and shalt be kingH4428 over IsraelH3478.
And it shall be, if thou wilt hearkenH8085 unto all that I commandH6680 thee, and wilt walkH1980 in my waysH1870, and doH6213 that is rightH3477 in my sightH5869, to keepH8104 my statutesH2708 and my commandmentsH4687, as DavidH1732 my servantH5650 didH6213; that I will be with thee, and buildH1129 thee a sureH539 houseH1004, as I builtH1129 for DavidH1732, and will giveH5414 IsraelH3478 unto thee.
And I will for this afflictH6031 the seedH2233 of DavidH1732, but not for everH3117.
Now the restH7605 of the actsH1697 of SolomonH8010, firstH7223 and lastH314, are they not writtenH3789 in the bookH1697 of NathanH5416 the prophetH5030, and in the prophecyH5016 of AhijahH281 the ShiloniteH7888, and in the visionsH2378 of IddoH3260 the seerH2374 against JeroboamH3379 the sonH1121 of NebatH5028? {book: Heb. words}
Therefore this iniquityH5771 shall be to you as a breachH6556 ready to fallH5307, swelling outH1158 in a highH7682 wallH2346, whose breakingH7667 comethH935 suddenlyH6597 at an instantH6621.
But SihonH5511 kingH4428 of HeshbonH2809 wouldH14 not let us passH5674 by him: for the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 hardenedH7185 his spiritH7307, and made his heartH3824 obstinateH553, that he might deliverH5414 him into thy handH3027, as appeareth this dayH3117.
ButG1161 though heG846 had doneG4160 so manyG5118 miraclesG4592 beforeG1715 themG846, yet they believedG4100 notG3756 onG1519 himG846:
ThatG2443 the sayingG3056 of EsaiasG2268 the prophetG4396 might be fulfilledG4137, whichG3739 he spakeG2036, LordG2962, whoG5101 hath believedG4100 ourG2257 reportG189? andG2532 to whomG5101 hath the armG1023 of the LordG2962 been revealedG601?
ThereforeG5124+G1223 they couldG1410 notG3756 believeG4100, becauseG3754 that EsaiasG2268 saidG2036 againG3825,
And he saidH559 to JeroboamH3379, TakeH3947 thee tenH6235 piecesH7168: for thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, Behold, I will rendH7167 the kingdomH4467 out of the handH3027 of SolomonH8010, and will giveH5414 tenH6235 tribesH7626 to thee:
But his fatherH1 and his motherH517 knewH3045 not that it was of the LORDH3068, that he soughtH1245 an occasionH8385 against the PhilistinesH6430: for at that timeH6256 the PhilistinesH6430 had dominionH4910 over IsraelH3478.
They saidG2036 thereforeG3767 amongG4314 themselvesG240, Let usG4977 notG3361 rendG4977 itG846, butG235 cast lotsG2975 forG4012 itG846, whoseG5101 it shall beG2071: thatG2443 the scriptureG1124 might be fulfilledG4137, whichG3588 saithG3004, They partedG1266 myG3450 raimentG2440 among themG1438, andG2532 forG1909 myG3450 vestureG2441 they did castG906 lotsG2819. These thingsG5023+G3303 thereforeG3767 the soldiersG4757 didG4160.
If one manH376 sinH2398 against anotherH376, the judgeH430 shall judgeH6419 him: but if a manH376 sinH2398 against the LORDH3068, who shall intreatH6419 for him? Notwithstanding they hearkenedH8085 not unto the voiceH6963 of their fatherH1, because the LORDH3068 wouldH2654 slayH4191 them.
ThenG3767 cameG2064 the soldiersG4757, andG2532 brakeG2608 the legsG4628 of theG3303 firstG4413, andG2532 of the otherG243 whichG3588 was crucified withG4957 himG846.
ButG1161 whenG5613 they cameG2064 toG1909 JesusG2424, and sawG1492 that heG846 was deadG2348 alreadyG2235, they brakeG2608 notG3756 hisG846 legsG4628:
ButG235 oneG1520 of the soldiersG4757 with a spearG3057 piercedG3572 hisG846 sideG4125, andG2532 forthwithG2117 came there outG1831 bloodG129 andG2532 waterG5204.
AndG2532 he that sawG3708 it bare recordG3140, andG2532 hisG846 recordG3141 isG2076 trueG228: and heG2548 knowethG1492 thatG3754 he saithG3004 trueG227, thatG2443 yeG5210 might believeG4100.
ForG1063 these thingsG5023 were doneG1096, thatG2443 the scriptureG1124 should be fulfilledG4137, A boneG3747 of himG846 shallG4937 notG3756 be brokenG4937.
Wherefore the kingH4428 hearkenedH8085 not unto the peopleH5971; for the causeH5438 was from the LORDH3068, that he might performH6965 his sayingH1697, which the LORDH3068 spakeH1696 byH3027 AhijahH281 the ShiloniteH7888 unto JeroboamH3379 the sonH1121 of NebatH5028.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, Ye shall not go upH5927, nor fightH3898 against your brethrenH251 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478: returnH7725 every manH376 to his houseH1004; for this thingH1697 isH1961 from me. They hearkenedH8085 therefore to the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, and returnedH7725 to departH3212, according to the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559, Who shall persuadeH6601 AhabH256, that he may go upH5927 and fallH5307 at RamothgileadH7433+H1568? And one saidH559 on this mannerH3541, and another saidH559 on that mannerH3541. {persuade: or, deceive}
The LORDH3068 hath mingledH4537 a perverseH5773 spiritH7307 in the midstH7130 thereof: and they have caused EgyptH4714 to errH8582 in every workH4639 thereof, as a drunkenH7910 man staggerethH8582 in his vomitH6892. {a perverse…: Heb. a spirit of perversities}
