1 Kings 11:27-29

27Now this was the reason why he 1rebelled against the king: 2Solomon built the 3Millo, and closed up the breach of the city of his father David.

28Now the man Jeroboam was a valiant warrior, and when 4Solomon saw that the young man was 5industrious, he appointed him over all the 6forced labor of the house of Joseph.

29And it came about at that time, when Jeroboam went out of Jerusalem, that 7the prophet Ahijah the Shilonite found him on the road. Now 8Ahijah had clothed himself with a new cloak; and both of them were alone in the field.
