1 Kings 12:16-19

16SoH7725 when all IsraelH3478 sawH7200 that the kingH4428 hearkenedH8085 not unto them, the peopleH5971 answeredH1697 the kingH4428, sayingH559, What portionH2506 have we in DavidH1732? neither have we inheritanceH5159 in the sonH1121 of JesseH3448: to your tentsH168, O IsraelH3478: now seeH7200 to thine own houseH1004, DavidH1732. So IsraelH3478 departedH3212 unto their tentsH168. 17But as for the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 which dweltH3427 in the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063, RehoboamH7346 reignedH4427 over them. 18Then kingH4428 RehoboamH7346 sentH7971 AdoramH151, who was over the tributeH4522; and all IsraelH3478 stonedH7275 him with stonesH68, that he diedH4191. Therefore kingH4428 RehoboamH7346 made speedH553 to get him upH5927 to his chariotH4818, to fleeH5127 to JerusalemH3389.1 19So IsraelH3478 rebelledH6586 against the houseH1004 of DavidH1732 unto this dayH3117.2
