2 Chronicles 10:6-8

Jubilee Bible 2000

⁶ Then King Rehoboam took counsel with the old men that had stood before Solomon, his father, while he yet lived, saying, What do you counsel to reply to this people?

⁷ And they spoke unto him, saying, If thou wilt seek the good of this people and please them and speak good words to them, they will be thy slaves for ever.

⁸ But he forsook the counsel which the old men gave him and took counsel with the young men that were brought up with him, that stood before him.
