If°
thou wilt be°

with°
him, [and] which°
stood°°
before°
him: |
|
12:8
But he forsook the counsel of the old men, which they had given him, and consulted with the young men that were grown up with him, [and] which stood before him: |
12:9
And he said°°
unto°
them, What°
counsel°
give°°
ye°
that we may°°
answer°°°
this°
people,°
who°
have spoken°°
to°
me, saying,°°
Make°°

spake°°
unto°
thee, saying,°°
Thy father°
made°°°
our yoke°
heavy,°°

12:11
And now°
whereas my father°
did lade°°°
you with a heavy°

hearkened°°
not°
unto°
the people;°
for°
the cause°
was°
from°°
Yähwè

that°
he might perform°°°
his saying,°
which°
Yähwè
יָהוֶה°
spake°°

Wherefore the king hearkened not unto the people; for the cause was from Yahweh, that he might perform his saying, which Yahweh spake by Achiyyah the Shiloni unto Yorovam the son of Nevat. |

So°°
when all°
Yiŝrä´ël
יִשׂרָאֵל°
saw°°
that°
the king°
hearkened°°
not°
unto°
them, the people°
answered°°°
the king,°
saying,°°
What°
portion°
have we in
Däwiđ
דָּוִד?°
neither°
[have we] inheritance°
in the son°
of
Yišay
יִשַׁי:°
to your tents,°
O
Yiŝrä´ël
יִשׂרָאֵל:°
now°
see°°
to thine own house,°
Däwiđ

So
Yiŝrä´ël
יִשׂרָאֵל°
departed°°°
unto their tents.° |
|
12:16 ¶
So when all Yisrael saw that the king hearkened not unto them, the people answered the king, saying, What portion have we in Dawid? neither [have we] inheritance in the son of Yishay: to your tents, O Yisrael: now see to thine own house, Dawid. So Yisrael departed unto their tents. |
12:17
But [as for] the children°
of
Yiŝrä´ël
יִשׂרָאֵל°
which dwelt°°
in the cities°
of
Yæhûđà
יְהוּדָה,°
Ræçav`äm
רְחַבעָם°
reigned°°
over°
them. |
|
12:17
But [as for] the children of Yisrael which dwelt in the cities of Yehudah, Rechavam reigned over them. |
12:18
Then king°
Ræçav`äm
רְחַבעָם°
sent°°°
´Áđöräm
אֲדֹרָם,°
who°
[was] over°
the tribute;°
and all°
Yiŝrä´ël
יִשׂרָאֵל°
stoned°°
him with stones,°
that he died.°°
Therefore king°
Ræçav`äm
רְחַבעָם°
made speed°°
to get him up°°
to his chariot,°
to flee°°
to
Yærûšälaim
יְרוּשָׁלִַם.° |

12:19
So
Yiŝrä´ël
יִשׂרָאֵל°
rebelled°°
against the house°
of
Däwiđ
דָּוִד°
unto°
this°
day.° |
|
12:19
So Yisrael rebelled against the house of Dawid unto this day. |

was come again,°°
that they sent°°
and called°°
him unto°
the congregation,°
and made him king°°°
over°
all°
Yiŝrä´ël
יִשׂרָאֵל:°
there was°
none°
that followed°
the house°
of
Däwiđ
דָּוִד,°
but°
the tribe°
of
Yæhûđà
יְהוּדָה°
only.° |
|
12:20
And it came to pass, when all Yisrael heard that Yorovam was come again, that they sent and called him unto the congregation, and made him king over all Yisrael: there was none that followed the house of Dawid, but the tribe of Yehudah only. |
12:21 ¶
And when

saying,°° |

12:23
Speak unto Rechavam, the son of Shelomoh, king of Yehudah, and unto all the house of Yehudah and Binyamin, and to the remnant of the people, saying, |
12:24
Thus°
saith°°
Yähwè

Ye shall not°
go up,°°
nor°
fight°°
against°
your brethren°
the children°

two°
calves°
