1 Kings 14:10-18

10therefore behold, I am bringing calamity on the house of Jeroboam, and 1will cut off from Jeroboam 2every male person, 3both bond and free in Israel, and I 4will make a clean sweep of the house of Jeroboam, as one sweeps away dung until it is all gone. 115Anyone belonging to Jeroboam who dies in the city the dogs will eat. And he who dies in the field the birds of the heavens will eat; for the Lord has spoken it.”’ 12Now you, arise, go to your house. 6When your feet enter the city the child will die. 13All Israel shall mourn for him and bury him, for 7he alone of Jeroboam’s family will come to the grave, because in him 8something good was found toward the Lord God of Israel in the house of Jeroboam. 14Moreover, 9the Lord will raise up for Himself a king over Israel who will cut off the house of Jeroboam this day 10and from now on.

15“For the Lord will strike Israel, as a reed is shaken in the water; and 11He will uproot Israel from 12this good land which He gave to their fathers, and 13will scatter them beyond the Euphrates River, 14because they have made their 15Asherim, provoking the Lord to anger. 16He will give up Israel 16on account of the sins of Jeroboam, which he 17committed and with which he made Israel to sin.”

17Then Jeroboam’s wife arose and departed and came to 18Tirzah. 19As she was entering the threshold of the house, the child died. 1820All Israel buried him and mourned for him, according to the word of the Lord which He spoke through His servant Ahijah the prophet.
