Rehoboam Rejects the Elders' Advice

1 Kings 12:13-15

And the king answered the people roughly, leaving the counsel of the old men, which they had given him,

And he spoke to them according to the counsel of the young men, saying: My father made your yoke heavy, but I will add to your yoke: My father beat you with whips, but I will beat you with scorpions.

And the king condescended not to the people: for the Lord was turned away from him, to make good his word, which he had spoken in the hand of Ahias, the Silonite, to Jeroboam, the son of Nabat.
