ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³ That they sent and called him. And Jeroboam and all the congregation of Israel came, and spake unto Rehoboam, saying,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹ And, behold, there came a man of God out of Judah by the word of the LORD unto Beth-el: and Jeroboam stood by the altar to burn incense.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴ And it came to pass, when king Jeroboam heard the saying of the man of God, which had cried against the altar in Beth-el, that he put forth his hand from the altar, saying, Lay hold on him. And his hand, which he put forth against him, dried up, so that he could not pull it in again to him.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹ At that time Abijah the son of Jeroboam fell sick.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

² And Jeroboam said to his wife, Arise, I pray thee, and disguise thyself, that thou be not known to be the wife of Jeroboam; and get thee to Shiloh: behold, there is Ahijah the prophet, which told me that I should be king over this people.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴ And Jeroboam's wife did so, and arose, and went to Shiloh, and came to the house of Ahijah. But Ahijah could not see; for his eyes were set by reason of his age.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁵ And the LORD said unto Ahijah, Behold, the wife of Jeroboam cometh to ask a thing of thee for her son; for he is sick: thus and thus shalt thou say unto her: for it shall be, when she cometh in, that she shall feign herself to be another woman.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁶ And it was so, when Ahijah heard the sound of her feet, as she came in at the door, that he said, Come in, thou wife of Jeroboam; why feignest thou thyself to be another? for I am sent to thee with heavy tidings.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁷ Go, tell Jeroboam, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, Forasmuch as I exalted thee from among the people, and made thee prince over my people Israel,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹ Now in the eighteenth eighteenth year of king Jeroboam the son of Nebat reigned Abijam over Judah.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁶ And there was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all the days of his life.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁷ Now the rest of the acts of Abijam, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah? And there was war between Abijam and Jeroboam.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁹ And in the twentieth year of Jeroboam king of Israel reigned Asa over Judah.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

² Forasmuch as I exalted thee out of the dust, and made thee prince over my people Israel; and thou hast walked in the way of Jeroboam, and hast made my people Israel to sin, to provoke me to anger with their sins;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³ Behold, I will take away the posterity of Baasha, and the posterity of his house; and will make thy house like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁷ And also by the hand of the prophet Jehu the son of Hanani came the word of the LORD against Baasha, and against his house, even for all the evil that he did in the sight of the LORD, in provoking him to anger with the work of his hands, in being like the house of Jeroboam; and because he killed him.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁶ And Jeroboam the son of Nebat, an Ephrathite of Zereda, Solomon's servant, whose mother's name was Zeruah, a widow woman, even he lifted up his hand against the king.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁸ And the man Jeroboam was a mighty man of valour: and Solomon seeing the young man that he was industrious, industrious, he made him ruler over all the charge of the house of Joseph.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁹ And it came to pass at that time when Jeroboam went out of Jerusalem, that the prophet Ahijah the Shilonite found him in the way; and he had clad himself with a new garment; and they two were alone in the field:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³¹ And he said to Jeroboam, Take thee ten pieces: for thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel, Behold, I will rend the kingdom out of the hand of Solomon, and will give ten tribes to thee:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴⁰ Solomon sought therefore to kill Jeroboam. And Jeroboam arose, and fled into Egypt, unto Shishak king of Egypt, and was in Egypt until the death of Solomon.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹² So Jeroboam and all the people came to Rehoboam the third day, as the king had appointed, saying, Come to me again the third day.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁵ Wherefore the king hearkened not unto the people; for the cause was from the LORD, that he might perform his saying, which the LORD spake by Ahijah the Shilonite unto Jeroboam the son of Nebat.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁰ And it came to pass, when all Israel heard that Jeroboam was come again, that they sent and called him unto the congregation, and made him king over all Israel: there was none that followed the house of David, but the tribe of Judah only.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁵ Then Jeroboam built Shechem in mount Ephraim, and dwelt therein; and went out from thence, and built Penuel.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁶ And Jeroboam said in his heart, Now shall the kingdom return to the house of David:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³² And Jeroboam ordained a feast in the eighth month, on the fifteenth fifteenth day of the month, like unto the feast that is in Judah, and he offered upon the altar. So did he in Beth-el, sacrificing unto the calves that he had made: and he placed in Beth-el the priests of the high places which he had made.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³³ After this thing Jeroboam returned not from his evil way, but made again of the lowest of the people priests of the high places: whosoever would, he consecrated consecrated him, and he became one of the priests of the high places.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³⁴ And this thing became sin unto the house of Jeroboam, even to cut it off, and to destroy it from off the face of the earth.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁰ Therefore, behold, I will bring evil upon the house of Jeroboam, and will cut off from Jeroboam him that pisseth against the wall, and him that is shut up and left in Israel, and will take away the remnant of the house of Jeroboam, as a man taketh away dung, till it be all gone.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹¹ Him that dieth of Jeroboam in the city shall the dogs eat; and him that dieth in the field shall the fowls of the air eat: for the LORD hath spoken it.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹³ And all Israel shall mourn for him, and bury him: for he only of Jeroboam shall come to the grave, because in him there is found some good thing toward the LORD God of Israel in the house of Jeroboam.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁴ Moreover the LORD shall raise him up a king over Israel, who shall cut off the house of Jeroboam that day: but what? even now.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁶ And he shall give Israel up because of the sins of Jeroboam, who did sin, and who made Israel to sin.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁷ And Jeroboam's wife arose, and departed, and came to Tirzah: and when she came to the threshold of the door, the child died;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁹ And the rest of the acts of Jeroboam, how he warred, and how he reigned, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁰ And the days which Jeroboam reigned were two and twenty years: and he slept with his fathers, and Nadab his son reigned in his stead.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³⁰ And there was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all their days.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁵ And Nadab the son of Jeroboam began to reign over Israel in the second year of Asa king of Judah, and reigned over Israel two years.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁹ And it came to pass, when he reigned, that he smote all the house of Jeroboam; he left not to Jeroboam any that breathed, until he had destroyed him, according unto the saying of the LORD, which he spake by his servant Ahijah the Shilonite:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³⁰ Because of the sins of Jeroboam which he sinned, and which he made Israel sin, by his provocation wherewith he provoked the LORD God of Israel to anger.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³⁴ And he did evil in the sight of the LORD, and walked in the way of Jeroboam, and in his sin wherewith he made Israel to sin.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁹ For his sins which he sinned in doing evil in the sight of the LORD, in walking in the way of Jeroboam, and in his sin which he did, to make Israel to sin.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁶ For he walked in all the way of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, and in his sin wherewith he made Israel to sin, to provoke the LORD God of Israel to anger with their vanities.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³¹ And it came to pass, as if it had been a light thing for him to walk in the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, that he took to wife Jezebel the daughter of Ethbaal king of the Zidonians, and went and served Baal, and worshipped him.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²² And will make thine house like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, and like the house of Baasha the son of Ahijah, for the provocation wherewith thou hast provoked me to anger, and made Israel to sin.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁵² And he did evil in the sight of the LORD, and walked in the way of his father, and in the way of his mother, and in the way of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³ Nevertheless he cleaved unto the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, which made Israel to sin; he departed not therefrom.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁹ And I will make the house of Ahab like the house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, and like the house of Baasha the son of Ahijah:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

² And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, and followed followed the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, which made Israel to sin; he departed not therefrom.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁶ Nevertheless they departed not from the sins of the house of Jeroboam, who made Israel sin, but walked therein: and there remained the grove also in Samaria.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹ In the twenty and seventh year of Jeroboam king of Israel began Azariah son of Amaziah king of Judah to reign.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁸ In the thirty and eighth year of Azariah king of Judah did Zachariah the son of Jeroboam reign over Israel in Samaria six months.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁹ And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, as his fathers had done: he departed not from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁹ Howbeit from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin, Jehu departed not from after them, to wit, the golden calves that were in Beth-el, and that were in Dan.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³¹ But Jehu took no heed to walk in the law of the LORD God of Israel with all his heart: for he departed not from the sins of Jeroboam, which made Israel to sin.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹¹ And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD; he departed not from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel sin: but he walked therein.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹³ And Joash slept with his fathers; and Jeroboam sat upon his throne: and Joash was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁶ And Jehoash slept with his fathers, and was buried in Samaria with the kings of Israel; and Jeroboam his son reigned in his stead.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²³ In the fifteenth fifteenth fifteenth year of Amaziah the son of Joash king of Judah Jeroboam the son of Joash king of Israel began to reign in Samaria, and reigned forty and one years.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁴ And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD: he departed not from all the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁷ And the LORD said not that he would blot out the name of Israel from under heaven: but he saved them by the hand of Jeroboam the son of Joash.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁸ Now the rest of the acts of Jeroboam, and all that he did, and his might, how he warred, and how he recovered Damascus, and Hamath, which belonged to Judah, for Israel, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁹ And Jeroboam slept with his fathers, even with the kings of Israel; and Zachariah his son reigned in his stead.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁸ And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD: he departed not all his days from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁴ And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD: he departed not from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁸ And he did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD: he departed not from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²¹ For he rent Israel from the house of David; and they made Jeroboam the son of Nebat king: and Jeroboam drave Israel from following the LORD, and made them sin a great sin.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²² For the children of Israel walked in all the sins of Jeroboam which he did; they departed not from them;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁵ Moreover the altar that was at Beth-el, and the high place which Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin, had made, both that altar and the high place he brake down, and burned the high place, and stamped it small to powder, and burned the grove.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁷ All these were reckoned by genealogies in the days of Jotham king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam king of Israel.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

² And it came to pass, when Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who was in Egypt, whither he had fled from the presence of Solomon the king, heard it, that Jeroboam returned out of Egypt.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³ And they sent and called him. So Jeroboam and all Israel came and spake to Rehoboam, saying,

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴ Thus saith the LORD, Ye shall not go up, nor fight against your brethren: return every man to his house: for this thing is done of me. And they obeyed the words of the LORD, and returned from going against Jeroboam.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹ Now in the eighteenth eighteenth year of king Jeroboam began Abijah to reign over Judah.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

² He reigned three years in Jerusalem. His mother's name also was Michaiah the daughter of Uriel of Gibeah. And there was war between Abijah and Jeroboam.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

³ And Abijah set the battle in array with an army of valiant men of war, even four hundred thousand chosen men: Jeroboam also set the battle in array against him with eight hundred thousand chosen men, being mighty men of valour.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁴ And Abijah stood up upon mount Zemaraim, which is in mount Ephraim, and said, Hear me, thou Jeroboam, and all Israel;

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁶ Yet Jeroboam the son of Nebat, the servant of Solomon the son of David, is risen up, and hath rebelled against his lord.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁸ And now ye think to withstand the kingdom of the LORD in the hand of the sons of David; and ye be a great multitude, and there are with you golden calves, which Jeroboam made you for gods.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁹ Now the rest of the acts of Solomon, first and last, are they not written in the book of Nathan the prophet, and in the prophecy of Ahijah the Shilonite, and in the visions of Iddo the seer against Jeroboam the son of Nebat?

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹² So Jeroboam and all the people came to Rehoboam on the third day, as the king bade, saying, Come again to me on the third day.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁵ So the king hearkened not unto the people: for the cause was of God, that the LORD might perform his word, which he spake by the hand of Ahijah the Shilonite to Jeroboam the son of Nebat.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁴ For the Levites left their suburbs and their possession, and came to Judah and Jerusalem: for Jeroboam and his sons had cast them off from executing the priest's office unto the LORD:

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁵ Now the acts of Rehoboam, first and last, are they not written in the book of Shemaiah the prophet, and of Iddo the seer concerning genealogies? And there were wars between Rehoboam and Jeroboam continually.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹³ But Jeroboam caused an ambushment to come about behind them: so they were before Judah, and the ambushment was behind them.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁵ Then the men of Judah gave a shout: and as the men of Judah shouted, it came to pass, that God smote Jeroboam and all Israel before Abijah and Judah.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁹ And Abijah pursued after Jeroboam, and took cities from him, Beth-el with the towns thereof, and Jeshanah with the towns thereof, and Ephrain with the towns thereof.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

²⁰ Neither did Jeroboam recover strength again in the days of Abijah: and the LORD struck him, and he died.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹ The word of the LORD that came unto Hosea, the son of Beeri, in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash, king of Israel.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹ The words of Amos, who was among the herdmen of Tekoa, which he saw concerning Israel in the days of Uzziah king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash king of Israel, two years before the earthquake.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

⁹ And the high places of Isaac shall be desolate, and the sanctuaries of Israel shall be laid waste; and I will rise against the house of Jeroboam with the sword.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹⁰ Then Amaziah the priest of Beth-el sent to Jeroboam king of Israel, saying, Amos hath conspired against thee in the midst of the house of Israel: the land is not able to bear all his words.

ASVBasic EnglishDarbyKJVWEBYLT

¹¹ For thus Amos saith, Jeroboam shall die by the sword, and Israel shall surely be led away captive out of their own land.
