17 Howbeit over the children of Israel, which dwelt in the cities of Judah, did Rehoboam reign still.
18 ¶ Now the king Rehoboam sent Adoram the receiver of the tribute, and all Israel stoned him to death: then the king Rehoboam [a]made speed to get him up to his chariot, to flee to Jerusalem.
19 And Israel rebelled against the house [b]of David unto this day.
