2 Chronicles 10:12-14

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹² The third day Jeroboam and all the people returned to Rehoboam as he had said.

¹³ And the king answered them harshly, forsaking the counsel of the old men,

¹⁴ And answered them after the advice of the young men, saying, My father made your yoke heavy, but I will add to it; my father chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.
