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.
Querverweise zu 2. Chronika 10,16 2Chr 10,16
And there happenedH7122 to be there a manH376 of BelialH1100, whose nameH8034 was ShebaH7652, the sonH1121 of BichriH1075, a BenjamiteH1145: and he blewH8628 a trumpetH7782, and saidH559, We have no partH2506 in DavidH1732, neither have we inheritanceH5159 in the sonH1121 of JesseH3448: everyH376 manH376 to his tentsH168, O IsraelH3478.
And it came to pass on the morrowH4283, which was the secondH8145 day of the monthH2320, that David'sH1732 placeH4725 was emptyH6485: and SaulH7586 saidH559 unto JonathanH3083 his sonH1121, Wherefore comethH935 not the sonH1121 of JesseH3448 to meatH3899, neither yesterdayH8543, nor to dayH3117?
But my mercyH2617 shall not depart awayH5493 from him, as I tookH5493 it from SaulH7586, whom I put awayH5493 beforeH6440 thee.
SoH7725 when all IsraelH3478 sawH7200 that the kingH4428 hearkenedH8085 not unto them, the peopleH5971 answeredH1697 the kingH4428, sayingH559, What portionH2506 have we in DavidH1732? neither have we inheritanceH5159 in the sonH1121 of JesseH3448: to your tentsH168, O IsraelH3478: now seeH7200 to thine own houseH1004, DavidH1732. So IsraelH3478 departedH3212 unto their tentsH168.
Then Saul'sH7586 angerH639 was kindledH2734 against JonathanH3083, and he saidH559 unto him, Thou sonH1121 of the perverseH5753 rebelliousH4780 woman, do not I knowH3045 that thou hast chosenH977 the sonH1121 of JesseH3448 to thine own confusionH1322, and unto the confusionH1322 of thy mother'sH517 nakednessH6172? {Thou…: or, Thou perverse rebel: Heb. Son of perverse rebellion}
And thine houseH1004 and thy kingdomH4467 shall be establishedH539 forH5704 everH5769 beforeH6440 thee: thy throneH3678 shall be establishedH3559 forH5704 everH5769.
Neither shewedH6213 they kindnessH2617 to the houseH1004 of JerubbaalH3378, namely, GideonH1439, according to all the goodnessH2896 which he had shewedH6213 unto IsraelH3478.
But as for the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 which dweltH3427 in the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063, RehoboamH7346 reignedH4427 over them.
For as long asH3117 the sonH1121 of JesseH3448 livethH2425 upon the groundH127, thou shalt not be establishedH3559, nor thy kingdomH4438. Wherefore now sendH7971 and fetchH3947 him unto me, for he shall surely dieH1121+H4194. {shall…: Heb. is the son of death}
HowbeitH7535 I will not rend awayH7167 all the kingdomH4467; but will giveH5414 oneH259 tribeH7626 to thy sonH1121 for DavidH1732 my servant'sH5650 sake, and for Jerusalem'sH3389 sake which I have chosenH977.
And there cameH935 a messengerH5046 to DavidH1732, sayingH559, The heartsH3820 of the menH376 of IsraelH3478 are afterH310 AbsalomH53.
Then SaulH7586 saidH559 unto his servantsH5650 that stoodH5324 about him, Hear nowH8085, ye BenjamitesH1145; will the sonH1121 of JesseH3448 giveH5414 every one of you fieldsH7704 and vineyardsH3754, and makeH7760 you all captainsH8269 of thousandsH505, and captainsH8269 of hundredsH3967;
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.
And DavidH1732 saidH559 to AbishaiH52, and to all his servantsH5650, Behold, my sonH1121, which came forthH3318 of my bowelsH4578, seekethH1245 my lifeH5315: how much more now may this BenjamiteH1145 do it? let him aloneH3240, and let him curseH7043; for the LORDH3068 hath biddenH559 him.
Then answeredH6030 DoegH1673 the EdomiteH130, which was setH5324 over the servantsH5650 of SaulH7586, and saidH559, I sawH7200 the sonH1121 of JesseH3448 comingH935 to NobH5011, to AhimelechH288 the sonH1121 of AhitubH285.
But I will settleH5975 him in mine houseH1004 and in my kingdomH4438 for everH5769: and his throneH3678 shall be establishedH3559 forH5704 evermoreH5769.
FromG1537 thatG5127 time manyG4183 of hisG846 disciplesG3101 wentG565 backG1519+G3694, andG2532 walkedG4043 no moreG3765 withG3326 himG846.
And SaulH7586 saidH559 unto him, Why have ye conspiredH7194 against me, thou and the sonH1121 of JesseH3448, in that thou hast givenH5414 him breadH3899, and a swordH2719, and hast enquiredH7592 of GodH430 for him, that he should riseH6965 against me, to lie in waitH693, as at this dayH3117?
Why do the heathenH1471 rageH7283, and the peopleH3816 imagineH1897 a vain thingH7385? {rage: or, tumultuously assemble} {imagine: Heb. meditate}
The kingsH4428 of the earthH776 setH3320 themselves, and the rulersH7336 take counselH3245 togetherH3162, against the LORDH3068, and against his anointedH4899, saying,
Let us breakH5423 their bandsH4147 asunderH5423, and cast awayH7993 their cordsH5688 from us.
He that sittethH3427 in the heavensH8064 shall laughH7832: the LordH136 shall have them in derisionH3932.
Then shall he speakH1696 unto them in his wrathH639, and vexH926 them in his sore displeasureH2740. {vex: or, trouble}
Yet have I setH5258 my kingH4428 upon my holyH6944 hillH2022 of ZionH6726. {set: Heb. anointed} {upon…: Heb. upon Zion, the hill of my holiness}
Surely the wrathH2534 of manH120 shall praiseH3034 thee: the remainderH7611 of wrathH2534 shalt thou restrainH2296.
His seedH2233 also will I makeH7760 to endure for everH5703, and his throneH3678 as the daysH3117 of heavenH8064.
If his childrenH1121 forsakeH5800 my lawH8451, and walkH3212 not in my judgmentsH4941;
If they breakH2490 my statutesH2708, and keepH8104 not my commandmentsH4687; {break: Heb. profane}
Then will I visitH6485 their transgressionH6588 with the rodH7626, and their iniquityH5771 with stripesH5061.
Nevertheless my lovingkindnessH2617 will I not utterly takeH6331 from him, nor suffer my faithfulnessH530 to failH8266. {will…: Heb. I will not make void from him} {to fall: Heb. to lie}
My covenantH1285 will I not breakH2490, nor alterH8138 the thing that is gone outH4161 of my lipsH8193.
OnceH259 have I swornH7650 by my holinessH6944 that I will not lieH3576 unto DavidH1732. {that…: Heb. if I lie}
His seedH2233 shall endure for everH5769, and his throneH3678 as the sunH8121 before me.
It shall be establishedH3559 for everH5769 as the moonH3394, and as a faithfulH539 witnessH5707 in heavenH7834. SelahH5542.
There will I makeH6779 the hornH7161 of DavidH1732 to budH6779: I have ordainedH6186 a lampH5216 for mine anointedH4899. {lamp: or, candle}
For unto us a childH3206 is bornH3205, unto us a sonH1121 is givenH5414: and the governmentH4951 shall be upon his shoulderH7926: and his nameH8034 shall be calledH7121 WonderfulH6382, CounsellorH3289, The mightyH1368 GodH410, The everlastingH5703 FatherH1, The PrinceH8269 of PeaceH7965.
Of the increaseH4766 of his governmentH4951 and peaceH7965 there shall be no endH7093, upon the throneH3678 of DavidH1732, and upon his kingdomH4467, to orderH3559 it, and to establishH5582 it with judgmentH4941 and with justiceH6666 from henceforth even forH5704 everH5769. The zealH7068 of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 will performH6213 this.
And there shall come forthH3318 a rodH2415 out of the stemH1503 of JesseH3448, and a BranchH5342 shall growH6509 out of his rootsH8328:
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; If ye can breakH6565 my covenantH1285 of the dayH3117, and my covenantH1285 of the nightH3915, and that there should not be dayH3119 and nightH3915 in their seasonH6256;
Then may also my covenantH1285 be brokenH6565 with DavidH1732 my servantH5650, that he should not have a sonH1121 to reignH4427 upon his throneH3678; and with the LevitesH3881 the priestsH3548, my ministersH8334.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; If my covenantH1285 be not with dayH3119 and nightH3915, and if I have not appointedH7760 the ordinancesH2708 of heavenH8064 and earthH776;
ThenH1571 will I cast awayH3988 the seedH2233 of JacobH3290, and DavidH1732 my servantH5650, so that I will not takeH3947 any of his seedH2233 to be rulersH4910 over the seedH2233 of AbrahamH85, IsaacH3446, and JacobH3290: for I will cause their captivityH7622 to returnH7725+H7725, and have mercyH7355 on them.
And DavidH1732 my servantH5650 shall be kingH4428 over them; and they all shall have oneH259 shepherdH7462: they shall also walkH3212 in my judgmentsH4941, and observeH8104 my statutesH2708, and doH6213 them.
And they shall dwellH3427 in the landH776 that I have givenH5414 unto JacobH3290 my servantH5650, wherein your fathersH1 have dweltH3427; and they shall dwellH3427 therein, even they, and their childrenH1121, and their children'sH1121 childrenH1121 for everH5769: and my servantH5650 DavidH1732 shall be their princeH5387 forH5704 everH5769.
In that dayH3117 will I raise upH6965 the tabernacleH5521 of DavidH1732 that is fallenH5307, and close upH1443 the breachesH6556 thereof; and I will raise upH6965 his ruinsH2034, and I will buildH1129 it as in the daysH3117 of oldH5769: {close: Heb. hedge, or, wall}
HeG3778 shall beG2071 greatG3173, andG2532 shall be calledG2564 the SonG5207 of the HighestG5310: andG2532 the LordG2962 GodG2316 shall giveG1325 unto himG846 the throneG2362 of hisG846 fatherG3962 DavidG1138:
AndG2532 he shall reignG936 overG1909 the houseG3624 of JacobG2384 forG1519 everG165; andG2532 of hisG846 kingdomG932 there shall beG2071 noG3756 endG5056.
ButG1161 hisG846 citizensG4177 hatedG3404 himG846, andG2532 sentG649 a messageG4242 afterG3694 himG846, sayingG3004, We willG2309 notG3756 haveG2309 thisG5126 man to reignG936 overG1909 usG2248.
ButG4133 thoseG1565 mineG3450 enemiesG2190, whichG3588 wouldG2309 notG3361 that IG3165 should reignG936 overG1909 themG846, bringG71 hitherG5602, andG2532 slayG2695 them beforeG1715 meG3450.
ThereforeG3767 beingG5225 a prophetG4396, andG2532 knowingG1492 thatG3754 GodG2316 had swornG3660 with an oathG3727 to himG846, that ofG1537 the fruitG2590 of hisG846 loinsG3751, according toG2596 the fleshG4561, he would raise upG450 ChristG5547 to sitG2523 onG1909 hisG846 throneG2362;
