1 Kings 11:27-29

27Now thisH2088 was the reasonH1697 whyH834 he 1rebelledH7311H3027 against the kingH4428: 2SolomonH8010 builtH1129 the 3MilloH4407, and closedH5462 upH5462 the breachH6556 of the cityH5892 of his fatherH1 DavidH1732.

28Now the manH376 JeroboamH3379 was a valiantH2428 warriorH1368, and when 4SolomonH8010 sawH7200 that the youngH5288 manH5288 was 5industriousH4399H6213, he appointedH6485 him over allH3605 the 6forcedH5447 laborH5447 of the houseH1004 of JosephH3130.

29And it cameH1961 aboutH1961 at that timeH6256, when JeroboamH3379 wentH3318 outH3318 of JerusalemH3389, that 7the prophetH5030 AhijahH281 the ShiloniteH7888 foundH4672 him on the roadH1870. Now 8Ahijah had clothedH3680 himself with a newH2319 cloakH8008; and bothH8147 of them were aloneH905 in the fieldH7704.
