Israel Secedes from David's House

1 Kings 12:16-19

And all Israel see that the king hath not hearkened unto them, and the people send the king back word, saying, `What portion have we in David? yea, there is no inheritance in the son of Jesse; to thy tents, O Israel; now see thy house, O David!' and Israel goeth to its tents.

As to the sons of Israel, those dwelling in the cities of Judah--over them reign doth Rehoboam.

And king Rehoboam sendeth Adoram who is over the tribute, and all Israel cast at him stones, and he dieth; and king Rehoboam hath strengthened himself to go up into a chariot to flee to Jerusalem;

and Israel transgresseth against the house of David unto this day.
