11and whereas my fatherH1 laid a heavyH3515 yokeH5923 upon you, I will addH3254 to your yokeH5923: my fatherH1 chastised you with whipsH7752, but I will chastise you with scorpionsH6137.

12And JeroboamH3379 and all the peopleH5971 cameH935 to RehoboamH7346 the thirdH7992 dayH3117, as the kingH4428 had appointed sayingH559, ComeH935 again to me on the thirdH7992 dayH3117.

13And the kingH4428 answeredH6030 the peopleH5971 roughly, and forsook the adviceH6098 of the oldH2205 men which they had given him;

14and he spokeH1696 to them according to the adviceH6098 of the youngH3206 men, sayingH559, My fatherH1 madeH3513 your yokeH5923 heavyH3513, but I will addH3254 to your yokeH5923: my fatherH1 chastised you with whipsH7752, but I will chastise you with scorpionsH6137.
