1 Kings 11:26-37

26And JeroboamH3379 the sonH1121 of NebatH5028, an EphrathiteH673 of ZeredaH6868, Solomon’sH8010 servantH5650, whose mother’sH517 nameH8034 was ZeruahH6871, a widowH490 womanH802, even he raisedH7311 his handH3027 against the kingH4428. 27And this was the causeH1697 why he raisedH7311 his handH3027 against the kingH4428: SolomonH8010 builtH1129 MilloH4407, and repairedH5462 the breachesH6556 of the cityH5892 of DavidH1732 his fatherH1.1 28And the manH376 JeroboamH3379 was a mighty manH1368 of valourH2428: and SolomonH8010 seeingH7200 the young manH5288 that he was industriousH6213H4399, he made him rulerH6485 over all the chargeH5447 of the houseH1004 of JosephH3130.23 29And it came to pass at that timeH6256 when JeroboamH3379 went outH3318 of JerusalemH3389, that the prophetH5030 AhijahH281 the ShiloniteH7888 foundH4672 him in the wayH1870; and he had cladH3680 himself with a newH2319 garmentH8008; and they twoH8147 were alone in the fieldH7704: 30And AhijahH281 caughtH8610 the newH2319 garmentH8008 that was on him, and toreH7167 it in twelveH8147H6240 piecesH7168: 31And he saidH559 to JeroboamH3379, TakeH3947 thee tenH6235 piecesH7168: for thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, Behold, I will rendH7167 the kingdomH4467 from the handH3027 of SolomonH8010, and will giveH5414 tenH6235 tribesH7626 to thee: 32(But he shall have oneH259 tribeH7626 for my servantH5650 David’sH1732 sake, and for Jerusalem’sH3389 sake, the cityH5892 which I have chosenH977 out of all the tribesH7626 of IsraelH3478:) 33Because they have forsakenH5800 me, and have worshippedH7812 AshtorethH6253 the goddessH430 of the ZidoniansH6722, ChemoshH3645 the godH430 of the MoabitesH4124, and MilcomH4445 the godH430 of the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983, and have not walkedH1980 in my waysH1870, to doH6213 that which is rightH3477 in my eyesH5869, and to keep my statutesH2708 and my judgmentsH4941, as did DavidH1732 his fatherH1. 34Yet I will not takeH3947 the whole kingdomH4467 out of his handH3027: but I will makeH7896 him princeH5387 all the daysH3117 of his lifeH2416 for DavidH1732 my servant’sH5650 sake, whom I choseH977, because he keptH8104 my commandmentsH4687 and my statutesH2708: 35But I will takeH3947 the kingdomH4410 out of his son’sH1121 handH3027, and will giveH5414 it to thee, even tenH6235 tribesH7626. 36And to his sonH1121 will I giveH5414 oneH259 tribeH7626, that DavidH1732 my servantH5650 may have a lightH5216 alwaysH3117 beforeH6440 me in JerusalemH3389, the cityH5892 which I have chosenH977 for me to putH7760 my nameH8034 there.4 37And I will takeH3947 thee, and thou shalt reignH4427 according to all that thy soulH5315 desirethH183, and shalt be kingH4428 over IsraelH3478.
