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.
ButG1161 yeG5210 shall notG3756 be soG3779: butG235 he that is greatestG3187 amongG1722 youG5213, let him beG1096 asG5613 the youngerG3501; andG2532 he that is chiefG2233, asG5613 he that doth serveG1247.
ForG1063 whetherG5101 is greaterG3187, he that sitteth at meatG345, orG2228 he that servethG1247? is notG3780 he that sitteth at meatG345? butG1161 IG1473 amG1510 amongG1722+G3319 youG5216 asG5613 he that servethG1247.
ButG235 asG2531 we were allowedG1381 ofG5259 GodG2316 to be put in trustG4100 with the gospelG2098, even soG3779 we speakG2980; notG3756 asG5613 pleasingG700 menG444, butG235 GodG2316, which triethG1381 ourG2257 heartsG2588.
A softH7390 answerH4617 turnethH7725 away wrathH2534: but grievousH6089 wordsH1697 stir upH5927 angerH639.
PrideH1347 goeth beforeH6440 destructionH7667, and an haughtyH1363 spiritH7307 beforeH6440 a fallH3783.
ForG1063 myG3450 yokeG2218 is easyG5543, andG2532 myG3450 burdenG5413 isG2076 lightG1645.
If I did despiseH3988 the causeH4941 of my manservantH5650 or of my maidservantH519, when they contendedH7379 with me;
