4Now when the kingH4428 heardH8085 the sayingH1697 of the manH376 of GodH430, whichH834 he criedH7121 againstH5921 the altarH4196 in BethelH1008, JeroboamH3379 stretchedH7971 out his handH3027 from the altarH4196, sayingH559, “SeizeH8610 him.” But his handH3027 whichH834 he stretchedH7971 out againstH5921 him driedH3001 up, so that he couldH3201 not drawH7725 it backH7725 to himself.

5The altarH4196 also was splitH7167 apartH7167 and the 1ashesH1880 were pouredH8210 out from the altarH4196, according to the 2signH4159 whichH834 the manH376 of GodH430 had givenH5414 by the wordH1697 of the LordH3068.
