1 Kings 12:13-15
1599 Geneva Bible
13 And the king answered the people sharply, and left the old men’s counsel that they gave him,
14 And spake to them after the counsel of the young men, saying, My father made your yoke grievous, and I will make your yoke more grievous: my father hath chastised you with rods, but I will correct you with scourges.
15 And the king hearkened not unto the people: for it was the [a]ordinance of the Lord, that he might perform his saying, which the Lord had spoken by (A)Ahijah the Shilonite unto Jeroboam the son of Nebat.
