13The king answered them roughly; and king Rehoboam forsook the counsel of the old men,
10 The young men who had grown up with him spoke to him, saying, |Thus you shall tell the people who spoke to you, saying, 'Your father made our yoke heavy, but make it lighter on us;' thus you shall say to them, 'My little finger is thicker than my father's waist.
11 Now whereas my father burdened you with a heavy yoke, I will add to your yoke. My father chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.'|
12 So Jeroboam and all the people came to Rehoboam the third day, as the king asked, saying, |Come to me again the third day.|
13 The king answered them roughly; and king Rehoboam forsook the counsel of the old men,
14 and spoke to them after the counsel of the young men, saying, |My father made your yoke heavy, but I will add to it. My father chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.|
15 So the king didn't listen to the people; for it was brought about of God, that Yahweh might establish his word, which he spoke by Ahijah the Shilonite to Jeroboam the son of Nebat.
