He answered, Nothing: however only let me depart. <\/br><strong>23<\/strong> God raised up [another] adversary to him, Rezon the son of Eliada, who had fled from his lord Hadadezer king of Zobah. <\/br><strong>24<\/strong> He gathered men to him, and became captain over a troop, when David killed them [of Zobah]: and they went to Damascus, and lived therein, and reigned in Damascus. <\/br><strong>25<\/strong> He was an adversary to Israel all the days of Solomon, besides the mischief that Hadad [did]: and he abhorred Israel, and reigned over Syria. <\/br><strong>26<\/strong> Jeroboam the son of Nebat, an Ephraimite of Zeredah, a servant of Solomon, whose mother&#8217;s name was Zeruah, a widow, he also lifted up his hand against the king. <\/br><strong>27<\/strong> This was the reason why he lifted up his hand against the king: Solomon built Millo, and repaired the breach of the city of David his father. <\/br><strong>28<\/strong> The man Jeroboam was a mighty man of valor; and Solomon saw the young man that he was industrious, and he gave him charge over all the labor of the house of Joseph. <\/br><strong>29<\/strong> It happened at that time, when Jeroboam went out of Jerusalem, that the prophet Ahijah the Shilonite found him in the way; now [Ahijah] had clad himself with a new garment; and they two were alone in the field. <\/br><strong>30<\/strong> Ahijah laid hold of the new garment that was on him, and tore it in twelve pieces. <\/br><strong>31<\/strong> He said to Jeroboam, Take ten pieces; for thus says Yahweh, the God of Israel, Behold, I will tear the kingdom out of the hand of Solomon, and will give ten tribes to you <\/br><strong>32<\/strong> (but he shall have one tribe, for my servant David&#8217;s sake and for Jerusalem&#8217;s sake, the city which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel); <\/br><strong>33<\/strong> because that they have forsaken me, and have worshiped Ashtoreth the goddess of the Sidonians, Chemosh the god of Moab, and Milcom the god of the children of Ammon; and they have not walked in my ways, to do that which is right in my eyes, and [to keep] my statutes and my ordinances, as did David his father. <\/br><strong>34<\/strong> However I will not take the whole kingdom out of his hand; but I will make him prince all the days of his life, for David my servant&#8217;s sake whom I chose, who kept my commandments and my statutes; <\/br><strong>35<\/strong> but I will take the kingdom out of his son&#8217;s hand, and will give it to you, even ten tribes. <\/br><strong>36<\/strong> To his son will I give one tribe, that David my servant may have a lamp always before me in Jerusalem, the city which I have chosen me to put my name there. <\/br><strong>37<\/strong> I will take you, and you shall reign according to all that your soul desires, and shall be king over Israel. <\/br><strong>38<\/strong> It shall be, if you will listen to all that I command you, and will walk in my ways, and do that which is right in my eyes, to keep my statutes and my commandments, as David my servant did; that I will be with you, and will build you a sure house, as I built for David, and will give Israel to you. <\/br><strong>39<\/strong> I will for this afflict the seed of David, but not forever. <\/br><strong>40<\/strong> Solomon sought therefore to kill Jeroboam; but Jeroboam arose, and fled into Egypt, to Shishak king of Egypt, and was in Egypt until the death of Solomon. <\/br><strong>41<\/strong> Now the rest of the acts of Solomon, and all that he did, and his wisdom, aren&#8217;t they written in the book of the acts of Solomon? <\/br><strong>42<\/strong> The time that Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel was forty years. <\/br><strong>43<\/strong> Solomon slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David his father: and Rehoboam his son reigned in his place. <\/br><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n    google_ad_client = \"ca-pub-4647651612525789\";\n
