1 Kings 12:16-19

16When all Israel saw that the king did not listen to them, the people answered the king, saying, “What portion do we have in David? We have no inheritance in the son of Jesse; 1To your tents, O Israel! Now look after your own house, David!” So Israel departed to their tents. 17But 2as for the sons of Israel who lived in the cities of Judah, Rehoboam reigned over them. 18Then King Rehoboam sent 3Adoram, who was over the forced labor, and all Israel stoned him 4to death. And King Rehoboam made haste to mount his chariot to flee to Jerusalem. 195So Israel has been in rebellion against the house of David to this day.
