2 Chronicles 10:11-14

11Now then, my father loaded you with a heavy yoke; yet I will add to your yoke. My father disciplined you with whips, but I will discipline you with 1scorpions!’”

12So Jeroboam and all the people came to Rehoboam on the third day, just as the king had 2directed, saying, “Return to me on the third day.” 13The king answered them harshly, and King Rehoboam ignored the advice of the elders. 14He spoke to them according to the advice of the young men, saying, “3My father made your yoke heavy, but I will add to it; my father disciplined you with whips, but I will discipline you with 4scorpions.”
