2 Chronicles 10:13

10 Then spake with him the young men who had grown up with him, saying, Thus, shalt thou speak unto the people who have spoken unto thee saying, Thy father, made our yoke heavy, Thou, therefore, lighten somewhat our yoke,—Thus, shalt thou say unto them, My little finger, is thicker than my father’s loins;

11 Now, therefore, my father, laid upon you a heavy yoke, but, I, will add to your yoke,—My father, chastised you with whips, but, I, with scorpions,

12 So Jeroboam and all the people came unto Rehoboam, on the third day,—as the king spake, saying, Return unto me on the third day.

13 And the king answered them harshly,—and King Rehoboam declined the counsel of the old men;

14 and spake unto them according to the counsel of the young men, saying, My father, made your yoke heavy, but, I, will add thereunto,—My father, chastised you with whips, But, I, with scorpions.

15 So the king hearkened not unto the people,—for there had come to be a turn from God, to the end Yahweh might establish his word which he had spoken by means of Ahijah the Shilonite, unto Jeroboam, son of Nebat.

16 And, when, all Israel, [saw] that the king hearkened not unto them, the people answered the king, saying—What portion have, we, in David, or inheritance in the son of Jesse? Every man, to your homes, O Israel! Now, see to thine own house, O David! And all Israel departed to their homes.
