The King’s Harsh Reply

2 Chronicles 10:12-15

And Jeroboam cometh in, and all the people, unto Rehoboam on the third day, as the king spake, saying, `Return unto me on the third day.'

And the king answereth them sharply, and king Rehoboam forsaketh the counsel of the aged men,

and speaketh unto them according to the counsel of the lads, saying, `My father made your yoke heavy, and I--I add unto it; my father chastised you with whips, and I--with scorpions.'

And the king hath not hearkened unto the people, for the revolution hath been from God, for the sake of Jehovah's establishing His word that He spake by the hand of Abijah the Shilonite unto Jeroboam son of Nebat.
