II Chronicles 10 (kjv)

And Rehoboam^H7346 went^H3212 to Shechem^H7927: for to Shechem^H7927 were all Israel^H3478 come^H935 to make him king^H4427.²And it came to pass, when Jeroboam^H3379 the son^H1121 of Nebat^H5028, who was in Egypt^H4714, whither he had fled^H1272 from the presence^H6440 of Solomon^H8010 the king^H4428, heard^H8085 it, that Jeroboam^H3379 returned^H7725 out of Egypt^H4714.

³And they sent^H7971 and called^H7121 him. So Jeroboam^H3379 and all Israel^H3478 came^H935 and spake^H1696 to Rehoboam^H7346, saying^H559,⁴Thy father^H1 made our yoke^H5923 grievous^H7185: now therefore ease^H7043 thou somewhat the grievous^H7186 servitude^H5656 of thy father^H1, and his heavy^H3515 yoke^H5923 that he put^H5414 upon us, and we will serve^H5647 thee.⁵And he said^H559 unto them, Come again^H7725 unto me after three^H7969 days^H3117. And the people^H5971 departed^H3212.

⁶And king^H4428 Rehoboam^H7346 took counsel^H3289 with the old^H2205 men that had stood^H5975 before^H6440 Solomon^H8010 his father^H1 while he yet lived^H2416, saying^H559, What^H349 counsel give^H3289 ye me to return^H7725 answer^H1697 to this people^H5971?⁷And they spake^H1696 unto him, saying^H559, If thou be kind^H2896 to this people^H5971, and please^H7521 them, and speak^H1696 good^H2896 words^H1697 to them, they will be thy servants^H5650 for ever^H3117.⁸But he forsook^H5800 the counsel^H6098 which the old men^H2205 gave^H3289 him, and took counsel^H3289 with the young men^H3206 that were brought up^H1431 with him, that stood^H5975 before^H6440 him.⁹And he said^H559 unto them, What advice^H3289 give ye that we may return^H7725 answer^H1697 to this people^H5971, which have spoken^H1696 to me, saying^H559, Ease^H7043 somewhat the yoke^H5923 that thy father^H1 did put^H5414 upon us?¹⁰And the young men^H3206 that were brought up^H1431 with him spake^H1696 unto him, saying^H559, Thus shalt thou answer^H559 the people^H5971 that spake^H1696 unto thee, saying^H559, Thy father^H1 made^H3513 our yoke^H5923 heavy^H3513, but make thou it somewhat lighter^H7043 for us; thus shalt thou say^H559 unto them, My little^H6995 finger shall be thicker^H5666 than my father's^H1 loins^H4975.¹¹For whereas^H6258 my father^H1 put^H6006 a heavy^H3515 yoke^H5923 upon you, I will put more^H3254 to your yoke^H5923: my father^H1 chastised^H3256 you with whips^H7752, but I will chastise you with scorpions^H6137.¹²So Jeroboam^H3379 and all the people^H5971 came^H935 to Rehoboam^H7346 on the third^H7992 day^H3117, as the king^H4428 bade^H1696, saying^H559, Come again^H7725 to me on the third^H7992 day^H3117.¹³And the king^H4428 answered^H6030 them roughly^H7186; and king^H4428 Rehoboam^H7346 forsook^H5800 the counsel^H6098 of the old men^H2205,¹⁴And answered^H1696 them after the advice^H6098 of the young men^H3206, saying^H559, My father^H1 made your yoke^H5923 heavy^H3513, but I will add^H3254 thereto: my father^H1 chastised^H3256 you with whips^H7752, but I will chastise you with scorpions^H6137.¹⁵So the king^H4428 hearkened^H8085 not unto the people^H5971: for the cause^H5252 was of God^H430, that the LORD^H3068 might perform^H6965 his word^H1697, which he spake^H1696 by the hand^H3027 of Ahijah^H281 the Shilonite^H7888 to Jeroboam^H3379 the son^H1121 of Nebat^H5028.

¹⁶And when all Israel^H3478 saw^H7200 that the king^H4428 would not hearken^H8085 unto them, the people^H5971 answered^H7725 the king^H4428, saying^H559, What portion^H2506 have we in David^H1732? and we have none inheritance^H5159 in the son^H1121 of Jesse^H3448: every man^H376 to your tents^H168, O Israel^H3478: and now, David^H1732, see^H7200 to thine own house^H1004. So all Israel^H3478 went^H3212 to their tents^H168.¹⁷But as for the children^H1121 of Israel^H3478 that dwelt^H3427 in the cities^H5892 of Judah^H3063, Rehoboam^H7346 reigned^H4427 over them.¹⁸Then king^H4428 Rehoboam^H7346 sent^H7971 Hadoram^H1913 that was over the tribute^H4522; and the children^H1121 of Israel^H3478 stoned^H7275 him with stones^H68, that he died^H4191. But king^H4428 Rehoboam^H7346 made speed^H553 to get him up^H5927 to his chariot^H4818, to flee^H5127 to Jerusalem^H3389.¹⁹And Israel^H3478 rebelled^H6586 against the house^H1004 of David^H1732 unto this day^H3117.
