1 Kings 12:8-15

8But he forsookH5800 the counselH6098 of the old menH2205, which they had givenH3289 him, and consultedH3289 with the young menH3206 that had grown upH1431 with him, and who stoodH5975 beforeH6440 him: 9And he saidH559 to them, What counsel giveH3289 ye that we mayH7725 answerH1697 this peopleH5971, who have spokenH1696 to me, sayingH559, MakeH7043 the yokeH5923 which thy fatherH1 did putH5414 upon us lighterH7043? 10And the young menH3206 that had grown upH1431 with him spokeH1696 to him, sayingH559, Thus shalt thou speakH559 to this peopleH5971 who spokeH1696 to thee, sayingH559, Thy fatherH1 madeH3513 our yokeH5923 heavyH3513, but make thou it lighterH7043 to us; thus shalt thou sayH1696 to them, My littleH6995 finger shall be thickerH5666 than my father’sH1 loinsH4975. 11And now though my fatherH1 burdenedH6006 you with a heavyH3515 yokeH5923, I will addH3254 to your yokeH5923: my fatherH1 hath chastisedH3256 you with whipsH7752, but I will chastiseH3256 you with scorpionsH6137. 12So JeroboamH3379 and all the peopleH5971 cameH935 to RehoboamH7346 the thirdH7992 dayH3117, as the kingH4428 had appointedH1696, sayingH559, Come to me againH7725 the thirdH7992 dayH3117. 13And the kingH4428 answeredH6030 the peopleH5971 roughlyH7186, and forsookH5800 the old men’sH2205 counselH6098 that they gaveH3289 him;1 14And spokeH1696 to them after the counselH6098 of the young menH3206, sayingH559, My fatherH1 madeH3513 your yokeH5923 heavyH3513, and I will addH3254 to your yokeH5923: my fatherH1 also chastisedH3256 you with whipsH7752, but I will chastiseH3256 you with scorpionsH6137. 15Therefore the kingH4428 hearkenedH8085 not to the peopleH5971; for the causeH5438 was from the LORDH3068, that he might performH6965 his sayingH1697, which the LORDH3068 spokeH1696 byH3027 AhijahH281 the ShiloniteH7888 to JeroboamH3379 the sonH1121 of NebatH5028.
