1 Kings 11:25-27
Christian Standard Bible
25 Rezon was Israel’s enemy throughout Solomon’s reign, adding to the trouble Hadad had caused. He reigned over Aram[a](A) and loathed Israel.
26 Now Solomon’s servant,(B) Jeroboam son of Nebat, was an Ephraimite from Zeredah. His widowed mother’s name was Zeruah. Jeroboam rebelled(C) against Solomon, 27 and this is the reason he rebelled against the king: Solomon had built the supporting terraces(D) and repaired the opening in the wall of the city of his father David.
