1 Kings 11:28

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

And the man {H376} Jeroboam {H3379} was a mighty man {H1368} of valour {H2428}: and Solomon {H8010} seeing {H7200} the young man {H5288} that he was industrious {H6213}{H4399}, he made him ruler {H6485} over all the charge {H5447} of the house {H1004} of Joseph {H3130}.

Now this Yarov'am was a strong, energetic man; and Shlomo, seeing how serious the young man was, made him supervisor over all the work being done by the tribe of Yosef.

Now Jeroboam was a mighty man of valor. So when Solomon noticed that the young man was industrious, he put him in charge of the whole labor force of the house of Joseph.

And the man Jeroboam was a mighty man of valor; and Solomon saw the young man that he was industrious, and he gave him charge over all the labor of the house of Joseph.
