He will uproot Israel from this good soil that He gave to their ancestors.(A) He will scatter them beyond the Euphrates(B) because they made their Asherah poles, provoking the Lord.(C) 16 He will give up Israel because of Jeroboam’s sins that he committed and caused Israel to commit.”(D)
17 Then Jeroboam’s wife got up and left and went to Tirzah.(E) As she was crossing the threshold of the house, the boy died.

17 Then Jeroboam’s wife got up and left and went to Tirzah.(E) As soon as she stepped over the threshold of the house, the boy died.
