29And it cameH1961 aboutH1961 at that timeH6256, when JeroboamH3379 wentH3318 outH3318 of JerusalemH3389, that 1the prophetH5030 AhijahH281 the ShiloniteH7888 foundH4672 him on the roadH1870. Now 2Ahijah had clothedH3680 himself with a newH2319 cloakH8008; and bothH8147 of them were aloneH905 in the fieldH7704.

30Then 3AhijahH281 tookH8610 holdH8610 of the newH2319 cloakH8008 whichH834 was on him and toreH7167 it into twelveH8147H6240 piecesH7168.

31And he saidH559 to JeroboamH3379, “TakeH3947 for yourself tenH6235 piecesH7168; for thisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478 saysH559: ‘BeholdH2009, 4I am going to tearH7167 the kingdomH4467 awayH7167 from the handH3027 of SolomonH8010 and giveH5414 you tenH6235 tribesH7626
