|
|
5. And Jehovah said unto Ahijah, Behold, the wife of Jeroboam cometh to inquire of thee concerning her son; for he is sick: thus and thus shalt thou say unto her; for it will be, when she cometh in, that she will feign herself to be another woman.
|
5. And the LORD H3068 said H559 unto H413 Ahijah H281 , Behold H2009 , the wife H802 of Jeroboam H3379 cometh H935 to ask H1875 a thing H1697 of H4480 H5973 thee for H413 her son H1121 ; for H3588 he H1931 is sick H2470 : thus H2090 and thus H2088 shalt thou say H1696 unto H413 her : for it shall be H1961 , when she cometh in H935 , that she H1931 shall feign herself to be another woman H5234 .

8. and rent the kingdom away from the house of David, and gave it thee; and yet thou hast not been as my servant David, who kept my commandments, and who followed me with all his heart, to do that only which was right in mine eyes,
|
8. And rent H7167 H853 the kingdom H4467 away from the house H4480 H1004 of David H1732 , and gave H5414 it thee : and yet thou hast not H3808 been H1961 as my servant H5650 David H1732 , who H834 kept H8104 my commandments H4687 , and who H834 followed H1980 H310 me with all H3605 his heart H3824 , to do H6213 that only H7535 which was right H3477 in mine eyes H5869 ;
|
|
9. but hast done evil above all that were before thee, and hast gone and made thee other gods, and molten images, to provoke me to anger, and hast cast me behind thy back:
|
9. But hast done H6213 evil H7489 above all H4480 H3605 that H834 were H1961 before H6440 thee : for thou hast gone H1980 and made H6213 thee other H312 gods H430 , and molten images H4541 , to provoke me to anger H3707 , and hast cast H7993 me behind H310 thy back H1458 :
|
|
10. therefore, behold, I will bring evil upon the house of Jeroboam, and will cut off from Jeroboam every man-child, him that is shut up and him that is left at large in Israel, and will utterly sweep away the house of Jeroboam, as a man sweepeth away dung, till it be all gone.
|
10. Therefore H3651 behold H2009 , I will bring H935 evil H7451 upon H413 the house H1004 of Jeroboam H3379 , and will cut off H3772 from Jeroboam H3379 him that pisseth H8366 against the wall H7023 , and him that is shut up H6113 and left H5800 in Israel H3478 , and will take away H1197 the remnant H310 of the house H1004 of Jeroboam H3379 , as H834 a man taketh away H1197 dung H1557 , till H5704 it be all gone H8552 .
|
|
11. Him that dieth of Jeroboam in the city shall the dogs eat; and him that dieth in the field shall the birds of the heavens eat: for Jehovah hath spoken it.
|
11. Him that dieth H4191 of Jeroboam H3379 in the city H5892 shall the dogs H3611 eat H398 ; and him that dieth H4191 in the field H7704 shall the fowls H5775 of the air H8064 eat H398 : for H3588 the LORD H3068 hath spoken H1696 it .
|
|

|
12. Arise H6965 thou H859 therefore, get H1980 thee to thine own house H1004 : and when thy feet H7272 enter H935 into the city H5892 , the child H3206 shall die H4191 .

|
13. And all H3605 Israel H3478 shall mourn H5594 for him , and bury H6912 him: for H3588 H2088 he only H905 of Jeroboam H3379 shall come H935 to H413 the grave H6913 , because H3282 in him there is found H4672 some good H2896 thing H1697 toward H413 the LORD H3068 God H430 of Israel H3478 in the house H1004 of Jeroboam H3379 .

|
|
15. For Jehovah will smite Israel, as a reed is shaken in the water; and he will root up Israel out of this good land which he gave to their fathers, and will scatter them beyond the River, because they have made their Asherim, provoking Jehovah to anger.
|
15. For the LORD H3068 shall smite H5221 H853 Israel H3478 , as H834 a reed H7070 is shaken H5110 in the water H4325 , and he shall root up H5428 H853 Israel H3478 out of H4480 H5921 this H2063 good H2896 land H127 , which H834 he gave H5414 to their fathers H1 , and shall scatter H2219 them beyond H4480 H5676 the river H5104 , because H3282 H834 they have made H6213 H853 their groves H842 , provoking the LORD to anger H3707 H853 H3068 .
|
|
16. And he will give Israel up because of the sins of Jeroboam, which he hath sinned, and wherewith he hath made Israel to sin.
|
16. And he shall give Israel up H5414 H853 H3478 because H1558 of the sins H2403 of Jeroboam H3379 , who H834 did sin H2398 , and who H834 made Israel to sin H2398 H853 H3478 .

|
|
23. For they also built them high places, and pillars, and Asherim, on every high hill, and under every green tree;
|
23. For they H1992 also H1571 built H1129 them high places H1116 , and images H4676 , and groves H842 , on H5921 every H3605 high H1364 hill H1389 , and under H8478 every H3605 green H7488 tree H6086 .
