1: And wentH1980 RehoboamH7346 to Shechem,H7927 forH3588 to ShechemH7927 had goneH0935 allH3605 IsraelH3478 to make kingH4427 him.H0853
2: So it came to pass,H1961 when heard [it]H8085 JeroboamH3379 sonH1121 of Nebat,H5028 and he [was]H1931 stillH5750 in Egypt,H4714 forH0834 he had fledH1272 from the presenceH6440 of KingH4428 Solomon,H8010 and had been dwellingH3427 JeroboamH3379 in Egypt.H4714
3: That they sentH7971 and calledH7121 then came,H0935 JeroboamH3379 and wholeH3605 the assemblyH6951 of IsraelH3478 and spokeH1696 toH0413 Rehoboam,H7346 saying,H0559
4: Your fatherH0001 heavy-H7185 madeH0853 our yokeH5923 therefore youH0859 nowH6258 lighten,H7043 serviceH5656 of your father,H0001 the burdensomeH7186 and his yokeH5923 heavyH3515 whichH0834 he putH5414 on usH5921 and we will serve you.H5647
5: So he saidH0559 to themH0413 DepartH1980 yetH5750 [for] threeH7969 days,H3117 then come backH7725 to meH0413 and departedH1980 the people.H5971
6: And consultedH3289 KingH4428 RehoboamH7346 withH0854 the elders,H2205 whoH0834 whileH1961 stoodH5975 -H0853 beforeH6440 SolomonH8010 his fatherH0001 while heH1961 still lived,H2416 and he said,H0559 howH0349 youH0859 do advise [me]H3289 to answerH7725 -H0853 people?H5971 thisH2088 answer.H1697 And they spokeH1696 to himH0413 saying,H0559 ifH0518 today,H3117 you will beH1961 a servantH5650 to peopleH5971 thisH2088 and serve themH5647 and answer themH6030 and speakH1696 to themH0413 wordsH1697 goodH2896 then they will beH1961 your servantsH5650 allH3605 forever.H3117
8: But he rejectedH5800 -H0853 the adviceH6098 the elders,H2205 whichH0834 had given himH3289 and consultedH3289 -H0853 the young menH3206 whoH0834 had grown upH1431 with himH0854 whoH0834 stoodH5975 before him.H6440
9: And he saidH0559 to themH0413 whatH4100 youH0859 advice do giveH3289 and how should weH7725 answerH1697 -H0853 people,H5971 thisH2088 whoH0834 have spokenH1696 to meH0413 saying,H0559 Lighten?H7043 fromH4480 the yokeH5923 whichH0834 putH5414 your fatherH0001 on us.H5921
10: And spokeH1696 to himH0413 the young menH3206 whoH0834 had grown upH1431 with himH0854 saying,H0559 thusH3541 you should speakH0559 to peopleH5971 thisH2088 whoH0834 have spokenH1696 to youH0413 saying,H0559 Your fatherH0001 heavy,H3513 madeH0853 our yokeH5923 but youH0859 make [it] lighterH7043 on usH5921 thusH3541 you shall sayH1696 to themH0413 My little [finger]H6995 shall be thickerH5666 than waistH4975 of my father.H0001
11: And whereasH6258 my fatherH0001 putH6006 on youH5921 a yoke,H5923 heavyH3515 and IH0589 will addH3254 toH5921 your yoke-H5923 my fatherH0001 chastisedH3256 youH0853 with whips,H7752 but IH0589 will chastiseH3256 youH0853 with scourges.H6137 So cameH0935 JeroboamH3379 and allH3605 the peopleH5971 toH0413 RehoboamH7346 the day,H3117 thirdH7992 asH0834 had directed,H1696 the kingH4428 saying,H0559 come backH7725 to meH0413 the dayH3117 third.H7992
13: And answeredH6030 the kingH4428 -H0853 the peopleH5971 roughly,H7186 and rejectedH5800 -H0853 the adviceH6098 the eldersH2205 whichH0834 had given him.H3289
14: And he spokeH1696 to themH0413 according to the adviceH6098 of the young men,H3206 saying,H0559 My fatherH0001 made heavy,H3513 -H0853 your yokeH5923 but IH0589 will addH3254 toH5921 your yoke-H5923 my fatherH0001 chastisedH3256 youH0853 with whips,H7752 but IH0589 will chastiseH3256 youH0853 with scourges.H6137
15: So notH3808 did listenH8085 the kingH4428 toH0413 the people-H5971 forH3588 wasH1961 the turn [of events]H5438 fromH5973 Yahweh,H3068 thatH4616 He might fulfillH6965 -H0853 His word,H1697 whichH0834 had spokenH1696 YahwehH3068 byH3027 AhijahH0281 the ShiloniteH7888 toH0413 JeroboamH3379 sonH1121 of Nebat.H5028
16: And when sawH7200 allH3605 IsraelH3478 thatH3588 notH3808 did listenH8085 the kingH4428 to themH0413 and answeredH7725 the peopleH5971 -H0853 the king,H4428 answeredH1697 saying,H0559 what haveH4100 portionH2506 in David?H1732 and noH3808 [We have] inheritanceH5159 in the sonH1121 of Jesse-H3448 to your tents,H0168 Israel!H3478 nowH6258 seeH7200 to your own house,H1004 David.H1732 So departedH1980 IsraelH3478 to their tents.H0168
17: But the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 who dweltH3427 in the citiesH5892 of Judah,H3063 and reignedH4427 overH5921 Rehoboam.H7346
18: And sentH7971 KingH4428 RehoboamH7346 -H0853 Adoram,H0151 who [was]H0834 in chargeH5921 of the revenue-H4522 but stonedH7275 allH3605 IsraelH3478 with stones,H0068 and he died.H4191 Therefore KingH4428 RehoboamH7346 in hasteH0553 mountedH5927 his chariot,H4818 to fleeH5127 to Jerusalem.H3389
19: So has been in rebellionH6586 IsraelH3478 against the houseH1004 of DavidH1732 toH5704 dayH3117 this.H2088
20: And it came to pass,H1961 when heardH8085 allH3605 IsraelH3478 thatH3588 had come back,H7725 JeroboamH3379 and they sent for himH7971 and calledH7121 himH0853 toH0413 the congregation,H5712 and made kingH4427 himH0853 overH5921 allH3605 Israel.H3478 NoneH3808 there wasH1961 who followedH0310 the houseH1004 of David,H1732 butH2108 the tribeH7626 of JudahH3063 only.H0905 And when cameH0935 RehoboamH7346 to Jerusalem,H3389 and he assembledH6950 -H0853 allH3605 the houseH1004 of Judah,H3063 andH0853 with the tribeH7626 of Benjamin,H1144 a hundredH3967 and eightyH8084 thousandH0505 chosen [men]H0970 who wereH6213 warriors,H4421 to fightH3898 againstH5973 the houseH1004 of Israel,H3478 that he might restoreH7725 -H0853 the kingdomH4410 to RehoboamH7346 sonH1121 of Solomon.H8010
22: But cameH1961 the wordH1697 of GodH0430 toH0413 ShemaiahH8098 the manH0376 of God,H0430 saying,H0559
23: speakH0559 toH0413 Rehoboam,H7346 sonH1121 of Solomon,H8010 kingH4428 of Judah,H3063 and toH0413 allH3605 the houseH1004 of JudahH3063 and Benjamin,H1144 and to the restH3499 of the people,H5971 saying,H0559
24: thusH3541 saysH0559 YahwehH3069 notH3808 You shall go up,H5927 norH3808 fightH3898 againstH5973 your brothersH0251 the sonsH1121 of Israel-H3478 and let returnH7725 every manH0376 to his house-H1004 forH3588 from MeH0853 isH1961 thingH1697 thisH2088 therefore they obeyedH8085 -H0853 the wordH1697 of YahwehH3069 and turned backH7725 to depart,H1980 according to the wordH1697 of Yahweh.H3069
25: And builtH1129 JeroboamH3379 -H0853 ShechemH7927 in the mountainsH2022 of Ephraim,H0669 and dweltH3427 and he went outH3318 from there,H8033 and builtH1129 -H0853 Penuel.H6439
26: And saidH0559 JeroboamH3379 in his heart,H3820 nowH6258 may returnH7725 the kingdomH4467 to the houseH1004 of David.H1732
27: IfH0518 go upH5927 peopleH5971 thisH2088 to offerH6213 sacrificesH2077 in the houseH1004 of YahwehH3068 at Jerusalem,H3389 then will turn backH7725 the heartH3820 of peopleH5971 thisH2088 toH0413 their lord,H0113 untoH0413 RehoboamH7346 kingH4428 of Judah,H3063 and they will kill meH2026 and go backH7725 toH0413 RehoboamH7346 kingH4428 of Judah.H3063
28: Therefore asked advice,H3289 the kingH4428 and madeH6213 twoH8147 calvesH5695 of gold,H2091 and saidH0559 to the peopleH0413 it is too muchH7227 to go upH5927 to Jerusalem-H3389 Here areH2009 your gods,H0430 Israel,H3478 whichH0834 brought you upH5927 from the landH0776 of Egypt.H4714
29: And he set upH7760 -H0853 oneH0259 Bethel,H1008 andH0853 oneH0259 he putH5414 in Dan.H1835
30: And becameH1961 thingH1697 thisH2088 a sin,H2403 and went [to worship]H1980 the for peopleH5971 beforeH6440 the one,H0259 as far asH5704 Dan.H1835
31: And He madeH6213 -H0853 shrines onH1004 the high places,H1116 and madeH6213 priestsH3548 from every classH7098 of people,H5971 whoH0834 notH3808 wereH1961 of the sonsH1121 of Levi.H3878
32: And ordainedH6213 JeroboamH3379 a feastH2282 of the month,H2320 eighthH8066 on the fiveH2568 [and] tenH6240 dayH3117 of the month,H2320 like the feastH2282 that [was]H0834 in Judah,H3063 and offered sacrificesH5927 onH5921 the altar.H4196 SoH3651 he didH6213 Bethel,H1008 sacrificingH2076 to the calvesH5695 thatH0834 he had made.H6213 And he installedH5975 BethelH1008 -H0853 the priestsH3548 of the high placesH1116 whichH0834 he had made.H6213
33: So he made offeringsH5927 onH5921 the altarH4196 whichH0834 he had madeH6213 BethelH1008 on the fiveH2568 [and] tenH6240 dayH3117 of the month,H2320 eighthH8066 in the monthH2320 whichH0834 he had devisedH0908 in his own heartH0905 and he ordainedH6213 a feastH2282 for the sonsH1121 of Israel-H3478 and offered sacrificesH5927 onH5921 the altar,H4196 and burned incense.H6999
