1 Kings 12:13-15, 2 Chronicles 10:13-15
And the king
answered the people roughly, and forsook the old men's counsel that
they gave him;
And spake to them after the counsel of the young men, saying, My
father made your yoke heavy, and I will add to your yoke: my father
also chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with
scorpions.
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.
