1 Kings 11:26-28

26Then 1Jeroboam the son of Nebat, an Ephraimite of Zeredah, Solomon’s servant, whose mother’s name was Zeruah, a widow, 2also 3rebelled against the king.

27Now this was the reason why he 4rebelled against the king: 5Solomon built the 6Millo, and closed up the breach of the city of his father David.

28Now the man Jeroboam was a valiant warrior, and when 7Solomon saw that the young man was 8industrious, he appointed him over all the 9forced labor of the house of Joseph.
