2 Chronicles 10:1 (ASV) American Standard Version

1 And Rehoboam went to Shechem; for all Israel were come to Shechem to make him king.
2 And it came to pass, when Jeroboam the son of Nebat heard of it, (for he was in Egypt, whither he had fled from the presence of king Solomon,) that Jeroboam returned out of Egypt.
3 And they sent and called him; and Jeroboam and all Israel came, and they spake to Rehoboam, saying,
4 Thy father made our yoke grievous: now therefore make thou the grievous service of thy father, and his heavy yoke which he put upon us, lighter, and we will serve thee.
5 And he said unto them, Come again unto me after three days. And the people departed.
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?
7 And they spake unto him, saying, If thou be kind to this people, and please them, and speak good words to them, then they will be thy servants for ever.
8 But he forsook the counsel of the old men which they had given him, and took counsel with the young men that were grown up with him, that stood before him.
9 And he said unto them, What counsel give ye, that we may return answer to this people, who have spoken to me, saying, Make the yoke that thy father did put upon us lighter?
10 And the young men that were grown up with him spake unto him, saying, Thus shalt thou say unto the people that spake unto thee, saying, Thy father made our yoke heavy, but make thou it lighter unto us; thus shalt thou say unto them, My little finger is thicker than my fathers loins.
11 And now whereas my father did lade you with a heavy yoke, I will add to your yoke: my father chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.
12 So Jeroboam and all the people came to Rehoboam the third day, as the king bade, saying, Come to me again the third day.
13 And the king answered them roughly; and king Rehoboam forsook the counsel of the old men,
14 and spake to them after the counsel 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.
15 So the king hearkened not unto the people; for it was brought about of God, that Jehovah might establish his word, which he spake by Ahijah the Shilonite to Jeroboam the son of Nebat.
16 And when all Israel saw that the king hearkened not unto them, the people answered the king, saying, What portion have we in David? neither have we inheritance in the son of Jesse: every man to your tents, O Israel: now see to thine own house, David. So all Israel departed unto their tents.
17 But as for the children of Israel that dwelt in the cities of Judah, Rehoboam reigned over them.
18 Then king Rehoboam sent Hadoram, who was over the men subject to taskwork; and the children of Israel stoned him to death with stones. And king Rehoboam made speed to get him up to his chariot, to flee to Jerusalem.
19 So Israel rebelled against the house of David unto this day.
1 And Rehoboam H7346 went H1980 to Shechem: H7927 for H3588 to Shechem H7927 were all H3605 Israel H3478 come H935 to make him king H4427 H853 .
2 And it came to pass, H1961 when Jeroboam H3379 the son H1121 of Nebat, H5028 who H1931 was in Egypt, H4714 whither H834 he had fled H1272 from the presence H4480 H6440 of Solomon H8010 the king, H4428 heard H8085 it , that Jeroboam H3379 returned H7725 out of Egypt H4480 H4714 .
3 And they sent H7971 and called H7121 him . So Jeroboam H3379 and all H3605 Israel H3478 came H935 and spoke H1696 to H413 Rehoboam, H7346 saying, H559
4 Thy father H1 made H853 our yoke H5923 grievous: H7185 now H6258 therefore ease H7043 thou somewhat the grievous H7186 servitude H4480 H5656 of thy father, H1 and his heavy H3515 yoke H4480 H5923 that H834 he put H5414 upon H5921 us , and we will serve H5647 thee.
5 And he said H559 unto H413 them , Come again H7725 unto H413 me after H5750 three H7969 days. H3117 And the people H5971 departed. H1980
6 And king H4428 Rehoboam H7346 took counsel H3289 with H854 the old men H2205 that H834 had H1961 stood H5975 before H6440 Solomon H8010 his father H1 while he yet lived H1961 H2416 , saying, H559 What H349 counsel give H3289 ye H859 me to return H7725 answer H1697 to this H2088 people H5971 ?
7 And they spoke H1696 unto H413 him, saying, H559 If H518 thou be H1961 kind H2896 to this H2088 people, H5971 and please H7521 them , and speak H1696 good H2896 words H1697 to H413 them , they will be H1961 thy servants H5650 forever H3605 H3117 .
8 But he forsook H5800 H853 the counsel H6098 which H834 the old men H2205 gave H3289 him , and took counsel H3289 with H854 the young men H3206 that H834 were brought up H1431 with H854 him , that stood H5975 before H6440 him.
9 And he said H559 unto H413 them, What H4100 advice give H3289 ye H859 that we may return H7725 answer H1697 H853 to this H2088 people, H5971 which H834 have spoken H1696 to H413 me, saying, H559 Ease H7043 somewhat H4480 the yoke H5923 that H834 thy father H1 did put H5414 upon H5921 us?
10 And the young men H3206 that H834 were brought up H1431 with H854 him spoke H1696 unto H854 him, saying, H559 Thus H3541 shalt thou answer H559 the people H5971 that H834 spoke H1696 unto H413 thee, saying, H559 Thy father H1 made our yoke heavy H3513 H853 H5923 , but make thou it somewhat lighter H859 H7043 for H4480 H5921 us; thus H3541 shalt thou say H559 unto H413 them , My little H6995 finger shall be thicker H5666 than my father's H1 loins H4480 H4975 .
11 For whereas H6258 my father H1 put H6006 a heavy H3515 yoke H5923 upon H5921 you, I H589 will put more H3254 to H5921 your yoke: H5923 my father H1 chastised H3256 you with whips, H7752 but I H589 will chastise you with scorpions. H6137
12 So Jeroboam H3379 and all H3605 the people H5971 came H935 to H413 Rehoboam H7346 on the third H7992 day, H3117 as H834 the king H4428 bade, H1696 saying, H559 Come again H7725 to H413 me on the third H7992 day. H3117
13 And the king H4428 answered H6030 them roughly; H7186 and king H4428 Rehoboam H7346 forsook H5800 H853 the counsel H6098 of the old men, H2205
14 And answered H1696 H413 them after the advice H6098 of the young men, H3206 saying, H559 My father H1 made your yoke heavy H3513 H853 H5923 , but I H589 will add H3254 thereto: H5921 my father H1 chastised H3256 you with whips, H7752 but I H589 will chastise you with scorpions. H6137
15 So the king H4428 hearkened H8085 not H3808 unto H413 the people: H5971 for H3588 the cause H5252 was H1961 of H4480 H5973 God, H430 that H4616 the LORD H3068 might perform H6965 H853 his word, H1697 which H834 he spoke H1696 by the hand H3027 of Ahijah H281 the Shilonite H7888 to H413 Jeroboam H3379 the son H1121 of Nebat. H5028
16 And when all H3605 Israel H3478 saw that H3588 the king H4428 would not H3808 hearken H8085 unto them , the people H5971 answered H7725 H853 the king, H4428 saying, H559 What H4100 portion H2506 have we in David H1732 ? and we have none H3808 inheritance H5159 in the son H1121 of Jesse: H3448 every man H376 to your tents, H168 O Israel: H3478 and now, H6258 David, H1732 see H7200 to thine own house. H1004 So all H3605 Israel H3478 went H1980 to their tents. H168
17 But as for the children H1121 of Israel H3478 that dwelt H3427 in the cities H5892 of Judah, H3063 Rehoboam H7346 reigned H4427 over H5921 them.
18 Then king H4428 Rehoboam H7346 sent H7971 H853 Hadoram H1913 that H834 was over H5921 the tribute; H4522 and the children H1121 of Israel H3478 stoned H7275 him with stones, H68 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 of David H1732 unto H5704 this H2088 day. H3117
