11For where as my father put a heauy yoke vpon you, I will put more to your yoke: my father chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions. 12So Ieroboam and all the people came to Rehoboam on the third day, as the King bade, saying, Come againe to me on the third day. 13And the king answered them roughly, and king Rehoboam forsooke the counsell of the old men, 14And answered them after the aduice of the yong men, saying, My father made your yoke heauy, but I will adde thereto: my father chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions. 15So the king hearkened not vnto the people, for the cause was of God, that the Lord might performe his word, which he spake by the hand of Ahijah the Shilonite to Ieroboam the sonne of Nebat.
