@ And
Rehoboam
went
to
Shechem
: for to
Shechem
were all
Israel
come
to make him
king
.
strkjv@2Chronicles:10:2
@ And it came to pass, when
Jeroboam
the
son
of
Nebat
, who was in
Egypt
, whither he had
fled
from the
presence
of
Solomon
the
king
,
heard
it, that
Jeroboam
returned
out of
Egypt
.
strkjv@2Chronicles:10:3
@ And they
sent
and
called
him. So
Jeroboam
and all
Israel
came
and
spake
to
Rehoboam
R@,
saying
,
strkjv@2Chronicles:10:4
@ Thy
father
made our
yoke
grievous
: now therefore
ease
thou somewhat the
grievous
servitude
of thy
father
, and his
heavy
yoke
that he
put
upon us, and we will
serve
thee.
strkjv@2Chronicles:10:5
@ And he
said
unto them, Come
again
unto me after
three
days
. And the
people
departed
.
strkjv@2Chronicles:10:6
@ And
king
Rehoboam
took
counsel
with the
old
men that had
stood
before
Solomon
his
father
while he yet
lived
,
saying
,
What
counsel
give
ye me to
return
answer
to this
people
?
strkjv@2Chronicles:10:7
@ And they
spake
unto him,
saying
, If thou be
kind
to this
people
, and
please
them, and
speak
good
words
to them, they will be thy
servants
for
ever
.
strkjv@2Chronicles:10:8
@ But he
forsook
the
counsel
which the old
men
gave
him, and took
counsel
with the young
men
that were brought
up
with him, that
stood
before
him.
strkjv@2Chronicles:10:9
@ And he
said
unto them, What
advice
give ye that we may
return
answer
to this
people
, which have
spoken
to me,
saying
,
Ease
somewhat the
yoke
that thy
father
did
put
upon us?
strkjv@2Chronicles:10:10
@ And the young
men
that were brought
up
with him
spake
unto him,
saying
, Thus shalt thou
answer
the
people
that
spake
unto thee,
saying
, Thy
father
made
our
yoke
heavy
, but make thou it somewhat
lighter
for us; thus shalt thou
say
unto them, My
little
finger shall be
thicker
than my
fathers
loins
.
strkjv@2Chronicles:10:11
@ For
whereas
my
father
put
a
heavy
yoke
upon you, I will put
more
to your
yoke
: my
father
chastised
you with
whips
, but I will chastise you with
scorpions
.
strkjv@2Chronicles:10:12
@ So
Jeroboam
and all the
people
came
to
Rehoboam
on the
third
day
, as the
king
bade
,
saying
, Come
again
to me on the
third
day
.
strkjv@2Chronicles:10:13
@ And the
king
answered
them
roughly
; and
king
Rehoboam
forsook
the
counsel
of the old
men
,
strkjv@2Chronicles:10:14
@ And
answered
them after the
advice
of the young
men
,
saying
, My
father
made your
yoke
heavy
, but I will
add
thereto: my
father
chastised
you with
whips
, but I will chastise you with
scorpions
.
strkjv@2Chronicles:10:15
@ So the
king
hearkened
not unto the
people
: for the
cause
was of
God
, that the
LORD
might
perform
his
word
, which he
spake
by the
hand
of
Ahijah
the
Shilonite
to
Jeroboam
the
son
of
Nebat
.
strkjv@2Chronicles:10:16
@ And when all
Israel
saw
that the
king
would not
hearken
unto them, the
people
answered
the
king
,
saying
, What
portion
have we in
David
? and we have none
inheritance
in the
son
of
Jesse
: every
man
to your
tents
, O
Israel
: and now,
David
,
see
to thine own
house
. So all
Israel
went
to their
tents
.
strkjv@2Chronicles:10:17
@ But as for the
children
of
Israel
that
dwelt
in the
cities
of
Judah
,
Rehoboam
reigned
over them.
strkjv@2Chronicles:10:18
@ Then
king
Rehoboam
sent
Hadoram
that was over the
tribute
; and the
children
of
Israel
stoned
him with
stones
, that he
died
. But
king
Rehoboam
made
speed
to get him
up
to his
chariot
, to
flee
to
Jerusalem
.

Israel
rebelled
against the
house
of
David
unto this
day
