1Kings:11:26-40




gltv@1Kings:11:26 @ And Jeroboam the son of Nebat, an Ephrathite of Zereda, a servant of Solomon (and his mother's name was Zeruah, a widow woman) he also lifted up a hand against the king.

gltv@1Kings:11:27 @ And this was the thing for which he lifted up his hand against the king: Solomon built Millo, repairing the breaks of the city of his father David.

gltv@1Kings:11:28 @ And the man Jeroboam was a mighty warrior. And Solomon saw the young man, that he was doing work. And he appointed him to all the burden of the house of Joseph.

gltv@1Kings:11:29 @ And at that time it happened that Jeroboam had gone out from Jerusalem, and Ahijah the Shilonite, the prophet, found him in the way. And he covered himself with a new garment, and both of them were by themselves in a field.

gltv@1Kings:11:30 @ And Ahijah laid hold on the new garment on him and tore it into twelve pieces.

gltv@1Kings:11:31 @ And he said to Jeroboam, Take ten pieces for yourself. For so says Jehovah, God of Israel, Behold, I am tearing the kingdom from the hand of Solomon and giving to you the ten tribes.

gltv@1Kings:11:32 @ And he shall have the one tribe for my servant David's sake, and for Jerusalem's sake, the city which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel.

gltv@1Kings:11:33 @ Because they have forsaken Me, and bow themselves to Ashtoreth the goddess of the Sidonians, to Chemosh the god of Moab, to Milcom the god of the sons of Ammon; and have not walked in My ways, to do the right in My eyes, and My statutes and My judgments, as his father David did.

gltv@1Kings:11:34 @ But I will not take the whole kingdom out of his hand, but I will make him ruler all the days of his life, for My servant David's sake, whom I chose, because he kept My commands and My statutes.

gltv@1Kings:11:35 @ But I will take the kingdom out of his son's hand, and will give it to you, ten tribes.

gltv@1Kings:11:36 @ And I will give one tribe to his son, that there may be a lamp to My servant David before Me all the days in Jerusalem the city that I have chosen to Myself, to put My name there.

gltv@1Kings:11:37 @ And I will take you, and you shall reign according to all that your soul desires, and shall be king over Israel.

gltv@1Kings:11:38 @ And it shall be, if you shall hear all that I command you, and shall walk in My ways, and do that which is right in My eyes, to keep My statutes and My commands, as My servant David did, then I shall be with you and shall build a sure house for you, as I built for David, and shall give Israel to you.

gltv@1Kings:11:39 @ And for this I will humble the seed of David; but not forever.

gltv@1Kings:11:40 @ And Solomon sought to put Jeroboam to death, and Jeroboam rose up and fled to Egypt, to Shishak the king of Egypt; and he was in Egypt until the death of Solomon.
