2 Chronicles 10:6-8

Darby Translation

⁶ And king Rehoboam consulted with the old men, who had stood before Solomon his father while he yet lived, saying, How do ye advise to return answer to this people?

⁷ And they spoke to him saying, If thou be kind to this people, and please them, and speak good words to them, they will be thy servants for ever.

⁸ But he forsook the advice of the old men which they had given him, and consulted with the young men, who had grown up with him, that stood before him.
