Young's Literal Translation
At that time Abijah the
son of Jeroboam fell
sick .
At that time was
Abijah son of Jeroboam sick ,
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 .
and Jeroboam saith
to his wife, `Rise
, I pray thee, and change
thyself, and
they
know
not
that thou `art'
wife of Jeroboam ,
and thou
hast
gone
to Shiloh ;
lo
, there `
is '
Ahijah the prophet ;
he
spake
unto
me of
`being'
king over this people ;
And take
with
thee
ten loaves, and cracknels
, and a cruse
of honey, and go
to
him :
he shall
tell
thee what shall
become
of the child
.
and thou
hast
taken
in
thy
hand
ten loaves, and crumbs
, and a bottle
of honey, and hast
gone
in
unto
him ;
he doth
declare
to
thee what becometh
of the youth
. '
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.
And the
wife of
Jeroboam
doth
so, and riseth
, and goeth
to Shiloh, and entereth
the house of Ahijah ,
and
Ahijah is
not able
to
see ,
for his eyes have
stood
because
of his age.
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
.
And Jehovah
said unto Ahijah, `Lo
, the wife of Jeroboam is
coming
to seek
a word
from
thee concerning
her son ,
for he is sick ;
thus and thus thou dost
speak
unto her, and
it
cometh to
pass
at
her
coming
in, that she is
making
herself strange
. '
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.
And it cometh
to
pass
, at
Ahijah's
hearing
the sound of her feet `
as '
she came in to
the opening
, that he saith
, `
Come in, wife of Jeroboam ,
why is
this
--
thou art
making
thyself strange
? and
I am sent unto
thee `
with '
a
sharp
thing:
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,
Go, say
to
Jeroboam, Thus said
Jehovah,
God of Israel, Because
that
I have
made
thee high
out
of
the midst
of
the
people, and appoint
thee leader
over my people Israel,
And rent
the kingdom away
from the house of David, and gave
it thee :
and yet
thou hast not been as my servant David ,
who kept my commandments
, and who followed
me with all his heart, to do that
only which was
right in mine eyes ;
and rend
the kingdom from the house of David, and give
it to
thee ,
--
and thou hast not been as My servant David who kept My commands
, and who walked
after
Me with all his heart, to do only that
which `is'
right in Mine eyes ,
But
hast
done
evil above all that
were
before thee :
for
thou
hast
gone
and made
thee other gods ,
and molten images ,
to provoke me to anger, and hast cast me
behind thy back:
and
thou
dost
evil above all who
have
been
before thee ,
and goest,
and
makest
to
thee other gods and molten images to provoke Me to anger, and Me
thou
hast cast behind thy back:
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.
`
Therefore, lo
, I am
bringing
in
evil unto
the house of Jeroboam, and have
cut off to
Jeroboam those
sitting
on
the wall --
shut up and left --
in Israel, and have
put
away the posterity
of the house of Jeroboam, as one
putteth
away the
dung till its
consumption;
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
.
him who
dieth of Jeroboam in a
city do
the dogs eat ,
and him who
dieth in a
field do
fowl
of the heavens
eat ,
for Jehovah
hath spoken.
Arise
thou therefore
, get
thee
to thine
own
house :
and
when
thy feet enter
into
the city ,
the child
shall
die.
`And
thou, rise,
go
to thy
house ;
in
the
going
in
of
thy feet to
the city --
hath
the lad
died;
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.
and all Israel have
mourned
for him, and buried
him ,
for this
one
--
by
himself
--
cometh
of Jeroboam unto
a
grave, because there hath
been
found in
him
a
good thing towards
Jehovah,
God of Israel ,
in the house of Jeroboam.
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 .
`And
Jehovah
hath
raised
up for
Him
a king over Israel who cutteth
off the house of Jeroboam this
day --
and
what? --
even now !
For
the
LORD
shall
smite
Israel ,
as a
reed is shaken
in
the water
, and he
shall
root
up
Israel out
of
this good land,
which
he gave to their fathers, and shall
scatter
them beyond the river, because they have
made their groves
, provoking the
LORD
to anger .
And
Jehovah
hath
smitten
Israel as the
reed is moved
by
the waters
, and hath
plucked
Israel from
off
this good ground
that
He gave to their fathers, and scattered
them beyond the River, because that
they made their shrines
, provoking Jehovah
to anger ;
And he shall
give
Israel
up because of the sins of Jeroboam ,
who
did
sin
, and who
made
Israel to sin.
and He giveth
up Israel
because of the sins of Jeroboam that
he
sinned
, and that
he
caused
Israel to sin. '
And Jeroboam's
wife arose
, and departed
, and came
to Tirzah :
and
when
she came
to the threshold of the door
, the child
died
;
And the
wife of
Jeroboam
riseth
, and goeth
, and cometh
to Tirzah ;
she hath
come
in
to the threshold of the house
, and
the youth
dieth
;
And they buried
him ;
and all
Israel
mourned
for him, according to the word of the
LORD
, which
he spake by the hand of his servant Ahijah the prophet.
and they bury
him ,
and mourn
for him do
all
Israel
, according to the word of Jehovah
, that
he spake by the hand of His servant Ahijah the prophet.

of Jeroboam, how he warred

the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
And the rest of the matters
of Jeroboam, how he fought
, and how he reigned, lo

and he slept
with his fathers, and Nadab his son reigned
in his stead.

And Rehoboam the

was
forty and one years old
when

began
to
reign
, and he
reigned
seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city which
the
LORD
did
choose
out of all the tribes of Israel, to
put
his
name
there.
And his
mother's
name was
Naamah an
Ammonitess.
And Rehoboam son of Solomon hath
reigned in Judah ;
a
son
of
forty and one years `is'
Rehoboam
in

Jehovah
chose
to
set
His
name
there,
out of all the tribes of Israel, and the
name of
his
mother

Naamah the
Ammonitess.
And Judah did
evil in the sight
of the
LORD
, and they provoked
him to
jealousy
with
their
sins
which
they
had
committed,
above all that their fathers had
done
.
And Judah doth
the
evil thing
in the eyes
of Jehovah
, and they make
Him zealous
above all that their fathers did
by
their
sins
that
they
have
sinned
.
For
they also built
them
high places, and images
, and groves
, on every high hill
, and under every green tree .
And
they build
--
also they
--
for
themselves
high places, and standing-pillars
, and shrines
, on every high height
, and under every green tree ;
And there
were
also sodomites
in the land :
and
they did
according to all the abominations of the nations which
the LORD
cast
out
before
the children
of Israel.
and also a
whoremonger
hath
been
in the land ;
they have
done
according to all the abominations of the nations that
Jehovah
dispossessed
from
the presence
of
the sons
of Israel.

to pass ,
in the fifth year of king Rehoboam, gone
up
hath

the treasures of the house of the
LORD
, and the treasures of the king's
house ;
he even
took
away
all:
and he took
away
all the shields of gold which
Solomon had
made.
and he taketh
the treasures of the house of Jehovah
, and the treasures of the house of
the
king,
yea,
the
whole
he hath
taken;
and he taketh
all the shields of gold that
Solomon made.

in their stead brazen
shields, and committed
them unto
the hands
of the chief
of the guard
, which
kept
the door
of the king's
house .
And king Rehoboam maketh

brass
, and hath
made
`
them '
a
charge
on
the hand
of the heads

, those
keeping
the opening
of the house of
the
king,
And it was
so
, when
the king went
into
the house of the
LORD
, that
the guard
bare
them, and brought them back into
the guard
chamber.

in

the
king to
the house of Jehovah
, the runners
bear
