2 Chronicles 10:12-14

Jubilee Bible 2000

¹² ¶ So Jeroboam and all the people came to Rehoboam on the third day, as the king had commanded, saying, Come again to me on the third day.

¹³ And the king answered them roughly, for King Rehoboam forsook 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.
