2 Chronicles 10:12-14

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹² So Jeroboam and all the people came to Rehoboam on the third day as the king had directed: “Come back to me on the third day.”

¹³ The king answered them harshly. King Rehoboam rejected the advice of the old men.

¹⁴ Instead, he spoke to them as the young men had advised: “My father made your yoke heavy. I will add to it. My father punished you with whips. I will punish you with scorpions.”
