1 And Rehoboam H7346 went H1980 W-VQY3MS to Shechem H7927 : for H3588 CONJ to Shechem H7927 LMS were all H3605 CMS Israel H3478 come H935 VQQ3MP to make him king H4427 .
2 And it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS , when Jeroboam H3379 the son H1121 of Nebat H5028 , who H1931 W-PPRO-3MS was in Egypt H4714 , whither H834 RPRO he had fled H1272 from the presence H6440 M-CMP of Solomon H8010 MMS the king H4428 D-NMS , heard H8085 it , that Jeroboam H3379 returned H7725 out of Egypt H4714 .
3 And they sent H7971 and called H7121 W-VQY3MP him . So Jeroboam H3379 and all H3605 W-CMS Israel H3478 came H935 W-VQY3MS and spoke H1696 to H413 PREP Rehoboam H7346 , saying H559 L-VQFC ,
4 Thy father H1 NMS made our yoke H5923 grievous H7185 VHQ3MS : now H6258 W-ADV therefore ease H7043 thou somewhat the grievous H7186 servitude H5656 of thy father H1 NMS , and his heavy H3515 yoke H5923 that H834 RPRO he put H5414 VQQ3MS upon H5921 PREP-1MP us , and we will serve H5647 thee .
5 And he said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP-3MS them , Come again H7725 unto H413 me after H5750 ADV three H7969 BMS days H3117 NMP . And the people H5971 D-NMS departed H1980 W-VQY3MS .
6 And king H4428 D-NMS Rehoboam H7346 took counsel H3289 with H854 PREP the old men H2205 that H834 RPRO had H1961 VQQ3MP stood H5975 before H6440 L-CMP Solomon H8010 MMS his father H1 CMS-3MS while he yet lived H1961 , saying H559 L-VQFC , What H349 counsel give H3289 ye H859 PPRO-2MS me to return H7725 L-VHFC answer H1697 to this H2088 D-PMS people H5971 ?
7 And they spoke H1696 W-VPY3MP unto H413 PREP-3MS him , saying H559 L-VQFC , If H518 PART thou be H1961 VQY2MS kind H2896 to this H2088 D-PMS people H5971 , and please H7521 them , and speak H1696 good H2896 words H1697 NMP to H413 PREP-3MS them , they will be H1961 W-VQQ3MS thy servants H5650 NMP forever H3117 D-NMP .
8 But he forsook H5800 the counsel H6098 CFS which H834 RPRO the old men H2205 gave H3289 him , and took counsel H3289 with H854 PREP the young men H3206 that H834 RPRO were brought up H1431 with H854 PREP-3MS him , that stood H5975 before H6440 him .
9 And he said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP-3MS them , What H4100 IGAT advice give H3289 ye H859 PPRO-2MS that we may return H7725 answer H1697 VQPMS to this H2088 D-PMS people H5971 , which H834 RPRO have spoken H1696 to H413 PREP-1MS me , saying H559 W-VQY3MS , Ease H7043 somewhat H4480 PREP the yoke H5923 that H834 RPRO thy father H1 NMS did put H5414 VQQ3MS upon H5921 us ?
10 And the young men H3206 that H834 RPRO were brought up H1431 with H854 PREP-3MS him spoke H1696 W-VPY3MP unto H854 PREP-3MS him , saying H559 L-VQFC , Thus H3541 shalt thou answer H559 VQY2MS the people H5971 that H834 RPRO spoke H1696 unto H413 PREP-2MS thee , saying H559 L-VQFC , Thy father H1 NMS made our yoke heavy H3513 , but make thou it somewhat lighter H7043 for us ; thus H3541 shalt thou say H559 unto H413 PREP-3MS them , My little H6995 finger shall be thicker H5666 than my father H1 NMS \'s loins H4975 .
11 For whereas H6258 W-ADV my father H1 CMS-1MS put H6006 a heavy H3515 VQS3MS yoke H5923 upon H5921 PREP-2MP you , I H589 W-PPRO-1MS will put more H3254 to H5921 PREP your yoke H5923 : my father H1 CMS-1MS chastised H3256 you with whips H7752 , but I H589 W-PPRO-1MS will chastise you with scorpions H6137 .
12 So Jeroboam H3379 and all H3605 W-CMS the people H5971 came H935 W-VQY3MS to H413 PREP Rehoboam H7346 on the third H7992 day H3117 B-AMS , as H834 K-RPRO the king H4428 D-NMS bade H1696 VPQ3MS , saying H559 L-VQFC , Come again H7725 to H413 PREP me on the third H7992 day H3117 B-AMS .
13 And the king H4428 D-NMS answered H6030 them roughly H7186 ; and king H4428 D-NMS Rehoboam H7346 forsook H5800 the counsel H6098 CFS of the old men H2205 ,
14 And answered H1696 W-VPY3MS them after the advice H6098 of the young men H3206 , saying H559 L-VQFC , My father H1 CMS-1MS made your yoke heavy H3513 , but I H589 W-PPRO-1MS will add H3254 thereto H5921 PREP-3MS : my father H1 CMS-1MS chastised H3256 you with whips H7752 , but I H589 W-PPRO-1MS will chastise you with scorpions H6137 .
15 So the king H4428 D-NMS hearkened H8085 not H3808 W-NPAR unto H413 PREP the people H5971 : for H3588 CONJ the cause H5252 was H1961 VQQ3FS of M-PREP God H430 D-NAME-4MS , that H4616 L-CONJ the LORD H3068 EDS might perform H6965 his word H1697 , which H834 RPRO he spoke H1696 VPQ3MS by the hand H3027 B-CFS of Ahijah H281 the Shilonite H7888 to H413 PREP Jeroboam H3379 the son H1121 of Nebat H5028 .
16 And when all H3605 NMS Israel H3478 saw that H3588 CONJ the king H4428 D-NMS would not H3808 NADV hearken H8085 unto them , the people H5971 answered H7725 the king H4428 D-NMS , saying H559 L-VQFC , What H4100 IPRO portion H2506 CMS have we in David H1732 ? and we have none H3808 ADV inheritance H5159 NFS in the son H1121 of Jesse H3448 : every man H376 NMS to your tents H168 , O Israel H3478 : and now H6258 ADV , David H1732 , see H7200 VQI2MS to thine own house H1004 . So all H3605 NMS Israel H3478 went H1980 W-VQY3MS to their tents H168 .
17 But as for the children H1121 W-CMP of Israel H3478 that dwelt H3427 in the cities H5892 B-CFP of Judah H3063 , Rehoboam H7346 reigned H4427 over H5921 PREP-3MP them .
18 Then king H4428 D-NMS Rehoboam H7346 sent H7971 W-VQY3MS Hadoram H1913 that H834 RPRO was over H5921 PREP the tribute H4522 ; and the children H1121 of Israel H3478 stoned H7275 him with stones H68 GFS , 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 .
19 And Israel H3478 rebelled H6586 against the house H1004 B-CMS of David H1732 unto H5704 PREP this H2088 D-PMS day H3117 D-AMS .
