2 Chronicles 10:12-14

Wycliffe Bible

¹² And Jeroboam and all the people came to Rehoboam in the third day, as he had commanded to them.

¹³ And the king answered (to them) hard things, after that he had forsaken the counsel of the elder men,

¹⁴ and he spake by the will of the young men, (and said,) My father putted on you a grievous yoke, which I shall make grievouser; my father beat you with scourges, soothly I shall beat you with scorpions.
