CKJV_Strongs(i)
  1 H7346 And Rehoboam H3212 went H7927 to Shechem: H7927 for to Shechem H3478 were all Israel H935 come H4427 to make him king.
  2 H3379 And it came to pass, when Jeroboam H1121 the son H5028 of Nebat, H4714 who was in Egypt, H1272 where he had fled H6440 from the presence H8010 of Solomon H4428 the king, H8085 heard H3379 it, that Jeroboam H7725 returned H4714 out of Egypt.
  3 H7971 And they sent H7121 and called H3379 him. So Jeroboam H3478 and all Israel H935 came H1696 and spoke H7346 to Rehoboam, H559 saying,
  4 H1 Your father H5923 made our yoke H7185 severe: H7043 now therefore ease H7186 you somewhat the severe H5656 servitude H1 of your father, H3515 and his heavy H5923 yoke H5414 that he put H5647 upon us, and we will serve you.
  5 H559 And he said H7725 unto them, Come again H7969 unto me after three H3117 days. H5971 And the people H3212 departed.
  6 H4428 And king H7346 Rehoboam H3289 took counsel H2205 with the old H5975 men that had stood H6440 before H8010 Solomon H1 his father H2416 while he yet lived, H559 saying, H349 What H3289 counsel give H7725 you me to return H1697 answer H5971 to this people?
  7 H1696 And they spoke H559 unto him, saying, H2896 If you are kind H5971 to this people, H7521 and please H1696 them, and speak H2896 good H1697 words H5650 to them, they will be your servants H3117 for ever.
  8 H5800 But he forsook H6098 the counsel H2205 which the old men H3289 gave H3289 him, and took counsel H3206 with the young men H1431 that were brought up H5975 with him, that stood H6440 before him.
  9 H559 And he said H3289 unto them, What advice H7725 give you that we may return H1697 answer H5971 to this people, H1696 which have spoken H559 to me, saying, H7043 Ease H5923 somewhat the yoke H1 that your father H5414 did put upon us?
  10 H3206 And the young men H1431 that were brought up H1696 with him spoke H559 unto him, saying, H559 Thus shall you answer H5971 the people H1696 that spoke H559 unto you, saying, H1 Your father H3513 made H5923 our yoke H3513 heavy, H7043 but make you it somewhat lighter H559 for us; thus shall you say H6995 unto them, My little H5666 finger shall be thicker H1 than my father's H4975 body.
  11 H6258 For whereas H1 my father H6006 put H3515 a heavy H5923 yoke H3254 upon you, I will put more H5923 to your yoke: H1 my father H3256 chastised H7752 you with whips, H6137 but I will chastise you with scorpions.
  12 H3379 So Jeroboam H5971 and all the people H935 came H7346 to Rehoboam H7992 on the third H3117 day, H4428 as the king H1696 told, H559 saying, H7725 Come again H7992 to me on the third H3117 day.
  13 H4428 And the king H6030 answered H7186 them roughly; H4428 and king H7346 Rehoboam H5800 forsook H6098 the counsel H2205 of the old men,
  14 H1696 And answered H6098 them after the advice H3206 of the young men, H559 saying, H1 My father H5923 made your yoke H3513 heavy, H3254 but I will add H1 thereto: my father H3256 chastised H7752 you with whips, H6137 but I will chastise you with scorpions.
  15 H4428 So the king H8085 listened H5971 not unto the people: H5252 for the cause H430 was of God, H3068 that the Lord H6965 might perform H1697 his word, H1696 which he spoke H3027 by the hand H281 of Ahijah H7888 the Shilonite H3379 to Jeroboam H1121 the son H5028 of Nebat.
  16 H3478 And when all Israel H7200 saw H4428 that the king H8085 would not listen H5971 unto them, the people H7725 answered H4428 the king, H559 saying, H2506 What portion H1732 have we in David? H5159 and we have none inheritance H1121 in the son H3448 of Jesse: H376 every man H168 to your tents, H3478 O Israel: H1732 and now, David, H7200 see H1004 to your own house. H3478 So all Israel H3212 went H168 to their tents.
  17 H1121 But as for the sons H3478 of Israel H3427 that lived H5892 in the cities H3063 of Judah, H7346 Rehoboam H4427 reigned over them.
  18 H4428 Then king H7346 Rehoboam H7971 sent H1913 Hadoram H4522 that was over the tribute; H1121 and the sons H3478 of Israel H7275 stoned H68 him with stones, H4191 that he died. H4428 But king H7346 Rehoboam H553 made speed H5927 to get him up H4818 to his chariot, H5127 to flee H3389 to Jerusalem.
  19 H3478 And Israel H6586 rebelled H1004 against the house H1732 of David H3117 unto this day.
