013:032 For the saying which he cried by the word of Yahweh against
the altar in Bethel, and against all the houses of the high
places which are in the cities of Samaria, shall surely happen.
013:033 After this thing Jeroboam didn't return from his evil way, but made
again from among all the people priests of the high places:
whoever would, he consecrated him, that there might be priests
of the high places.
013:034 This thing became sin to the house of Jeroboam, even to cut it off,
and to destroy it from off the surface of the earth.
014:001 At that time Abijah the son of Jeroboam fell sick.
014:002 Jeroboam said to his wife, Please get up and disguise yourself,
that you not be known to be the wife of Jeroboam; and get you
to Shiloh: behold, there is Ahijah the prophet, who spoke
concerning me that I should be king over this people.
014:003 Take with you ten loaves, and cakes, and a jar of honey,
and go to him: he will tell you what shall become of the child.
014:004 Jeroboam's wife did so, and arose, and went to Shiloh,
and came to the house of Ahijah. Now Ahijah could not see;
for his eyes were set by reason of his age.
014:005 Yahweh said to Ahijah, Behold, the wife of Jeroboam comes
to inquire of you concerning her son; for he is sick:
thus and thus shall you tell her; for it will be, when she
comes in, that she will feign herself to be another woman.
014:006 It was so, when Ahijah heard the sound of her feet, as she came
in at the door, that he said, Come in, you wife of Jeroboam;
why feign you yourself to be another? for I am sent to you
with heavy news.
014:007 Go, tell Jeroboam, Thus says Yahweh, the God of Israel: Because I
exalted you from among the people, and made you prince over
my people Israel,
014:008 and tore the kingdom away from the house of David, and gave it you;
and yet you have not been as my servant David, who kept
my commandments, and who followed me with all his heart,
to do that only which was right in my eyes,
014:009 but have done evil above all who were before you, and have gone
and made you other gods, and molten images, to provoke me
to anger, and have cast me behind your back:
014:010 therefore, behold, I will bring evil on the house of Jeroboam,
and will cut off from Jeroboam everyone who urinates on a wall,{or,
male} him who is shut up and him who is left at large in Israel,
and will utterly sweep away the house of Jeroboam, as a man
sweeps away dung, until it be all gone.
014:011 Him who dies of Jeroboam in the city shall the dogs eat;
and him who dies in the field shall the birds of the sky eat:
for Yahweh has spoken it.
014:012 Arise you therefore, get you to your house: [and] when your
feet enter into the city, the child shall die.
