And the people departed. 1KI_12:6 And king Rehoboam consulted with the old men, that stood before Solomon his father while he yet lived, and said, How do ye advise that I may answer this people? 1KI_12:7 And they spake unto him, saying, If thou wilt be a servant unto this people this day, and wilt serve them, and answer them, and speak good words to them, then they will be thy servants for ever. 1KI_12:8 But he forsook the counsel of the old men, which they had given him, and consulted with the young men that were grown up with him, [and] which stood before him: 1KI_12:9 And he said unto them, What counsel give ye that we may answer this people, who have spoken to me, saying, Make the yoke which thy father did put upon us lighter? 1KI_12:10 And the young men that were grown up with him spake unto him, saying, Thus shalt thou speak unto this people that spake unto thee, saying, Thy father made our yoke heavy, but make thou [it] lighter unto us; thus shalt thou say unto them, My little [finger] shall be thicker than my father's loins. 1KI_12:11 And now whereas my father did lade you with a heavy yoke, I will add to your yoke: my father hath chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions. 1KI_12:12 So Jeroboam and all the people came to Rehoboam the third day, as the king had appointed, saying, Come to me again the third day. 1KI_12:13 And the king answered the people roughly, and forsook the old men's counsel that they gave him; 1KI_12:14 And spake to them after the counsel of the young men, saying, My father made your yoke heavy, and I will add to your yoke: my father [also] chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions. 1KI_12:15 Wherefore the king hearkened not unto the people; for the cause was from the LORD, that he might perform his saying, which the LORD spake by Ahijah the Shilonite unto Jeroboam the son of Nebat. 1KI_12:16 So when all Israel saw that the king hearkened not unto them, the people answered the king, saying, What portion have we in David? neither [have we] inheritance in the son of Jesse: to your tents, O Israel: now see to thine own house, David. So Israel departed unto their tents. 1KI_12:17 But [as for] the children of Israel which dwelt in the cities of Judah, Rehoboam reigned over them. 1KI_12:18 Then king Rehoboam sent Adoram, who [was] over the tribute; and all Israel stoned him with stones, that he died. Therefore king Rehoboam made speed to get him up to his chariot, to flee to Jerusalem. 1KI_12:19 So Israel rebelled against the house of David unto this day. 1KI_12:20 And it came to pass, when all Israel heard that Jeroboam was come again, that they sent and called him unto the congregation, and made him king over all Israel: there was none that followed the house of David, but the tribe of Judah only. 1KI_12:21 And when Rehoboam was come to Jerusalem, he assembled all the house of Judah, with the tribe of Benjamin, an hundred and fourscore thousand chosen men, which were warriors, to fight against the house of Israel, to bring the kingdom again to Rehoboam the son of Solomon. 1KI_12:22 But the word of God came unto Shemaiah the man of God, saying, 1KI_12:23 Speak unto Rehoboam, the son of Solomon, king of Judah, and unto all the house of Judah and Benjamin, and to the remnant of the people, saying, 1KI_12:24 Thus saith the LORD, Ye shall not go up, nor fight against your brethren the children of Israel: return every man to his house; for this thing is from me. They hearkened therefore to the word of the LORD, and returned to depart, according to the word of the LORD. 1KI_12:25 Then Jeroboam built Shechem in mount Ephraim, and dwelt therein; and went out from thence, and built Penuel. 1KI_12:26 And Jeroboam said in his heart, Now shall the kingdom return to the house of David: 1KI_12:27 If this people go up to do sacrifice in the house of the LORD at Jerusalem, then shall the heart of this people turn again unto their lord, [even] unto Rehoboam king of Judah, and they shall kill me, and go again to Rehoboam king of Judah. 1KI_12:28 Whereupon the king took counsel, and made two calves [of] gold, and said unto them, It is too much for you to go up to Jerusalem: behold thy gods, O Israel, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt. 1KI_12:29 And he set the one in Bethel, and the other put he in Dan. 1KI_12:30 And this thing became a sin: for the people went [to worship] before the one, [even] unto Dan. 1KI_12:31 And he made an house of high places, and made priests of the lowest of the people, which were not of the sons of Levi. 1KI_12:32 And Jeroboam ordained a feast in the eighth month, on the fifteenth day of the month, like unto the feast that [is] in Judah, and he offered upon the altar. So did he in Bethel, sacrificing unto the calves that he had made: and he placed in Bethel the priests of the high places which he had made. 1KI_12:33 So he offered upon the altar which he had made in Bethel the fifteenth day of the eighth month, [even] in the month which he had devised of his own heart; and ordained a feast unto the children of Israel: and he offered upon the altar, and burnt incense. 1KI_13:1 And, behold, there came a man of God out of Judah by the word of the LORD unto Bethel: and Jeroboam stood by the altar to burn incense. 1KI_13:2 And he cried against the altar in the word of the LORD, and said, O altar, altar, thus saith the LORD; Behold, a child shall be born unto the house of David, Josiah by name; and upon thee shall he offer the priests of the high places that burn incense upon thee, and men's bones shall be burnt upon thee. 1KI_13:3 And he gave a sign the same day, saying, This [is] the sign which the LORD hath spoken; Behold, the altar shall be rent, and the ashes that [are] upon it shall be poured out. 1KI_13:4 And it came to pass, when king Jeroboam heard the saying of the man of God, which had cried against the altar in Bethel, that he put forth his hand from the altar, saying, Lay hold on him. And his hand, which he put forth against him, dried up, so that he could not pull it in again to him. 1KI_13:5 The altar also was rent, and the ashes poured out from the altar, according to the sign which the man of God had given by the word of the LORD. 1KI_13:6 And the king answered and said unto the man of God, Entreat now the face of the LORD thy God, and pray for me, that my hand may be restored me again. And the man of God besought the LORD, and the king's hand was restored him again, and became as [it was] before. 1KI_13:7 And the king said unto the man of God, Come home with me, and refresh thyself, and I will give thee a reward. 1KI_13:8 And the man of God said unto the king, If thou wilt give me half thine house, I will not go in with thee, neither will I eat bread nor drink water in this place: 1KI_13:9 For so was it charged me by the word of the LORD, saying, Eat no bread, nor drink water, nor turn again by the same way that thou camest. 1KI_13:10 So he went another way, and returned not by the way that he came to Bethel. 1KI_13:11 Now there dwelt an old prophet in Bethel; and his sons came and told him all the works that the man of God had done that day in Bethel: the words which he had spoken unto the king, them they told also to their father. 1KI_13:12 And their father said unto them, What way went he? For his sons had seen what way the man of God went, which came from Judah. 1KI_13:13 And he said unto his sons, Saddle me the ass. So they saddled him the ass: and he rode thereon, 1KI_13:14 And went after the man of God, and found him sitting under an oak: and he said unto him, [Art] thou the man of God that camest from Judah? And he said, I [am]. 1KI_13:15 Then he said unto him, Come home with me, and eat bread. 1KI_13:16 And he said, I may not return with thee, nor go in with thee: neither will I eat bread nor drink water with thee in this place: 1KI_13:17 For it was said to me by the word of the LORD, Thou shalt eat no bread nor drink water there, nor turn again to go by the way that thou camest. 1KI_13:18 He said unto him, I [am] a prophet also as thou [art]; and an angel spake unto me by the word of the LORD, saying, Bring him back with thee into thine house, that he may eat bread and drink water. [But] he lied unto him. 1KI_13:19 So he went back with him, and did eat bread in his house, and drank water. 1KI_13:20 And it came to pass, as they sat at the table, that the word of the LORD came unto the prophet that brought him back: JOH_18:32 That the saying of Jesus might be fulfilled, which he spake, signifying what death he should die. JOH_18:33 Then Pilate entered into the judgment hall again, and called Jesus, and said unto him, Art thou the King of the Jews? JOH_18:34 Jesus answered him, Sayest thou this thing of thyself, or did others tell it thee of me? JOH_18:35 Pilate answered, Am I a Jew? Thine own nation and the chief priests have delivered thee unto me: what hast thou done? JOH_18:36 Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence. JOH_18:37 Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice. JOH_18:38 Pilate saith unto him, What is truth? And when he had said this, he went out again unto the Jews, and saith unto them, I find in him no fault [at all]. JOH_18:39 But ye have a custom, that I should release unto you one at the passover: will ye therefore that I release unto you the King of the Jews? JOH_18:40 Then cried they all again, saying, Not this man, but Barabbas. Now Barabbas was a robber. JOH_19:1 Then Pilate therefore took Jesus, and scourged [him]. JOH_19:2 And the soldiers platted a crown of thorns, and put [it] on his head, and they put on him a purple robe, JOH_19:3 And said, Hail, King of the Jews! and they smote him with their hands. JOH_19:4 Pilate therefore went forth again, and saith unto them, Behold, I bring him forth to you, that ye may know that I find no fault in him. JOH_19:5 Then came Jesus forth, wearing the crown of thorns, and the purple robe. And [Pilate] saith unto them, Behold the man! JOH_19:6 When the chief priests therefore and officers saw him, they cried out, saying, Crucify [him], crucify [him]. Pilate saith unto them, Take ye him, and crucify [him]: for I find no fault in him. JOH_19:7 The Jews answered him, We have a law, and by our law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God. JOH_19:8 When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he was the more afraid; JOH_19:9 And went again into the judgment hall, and saith unto Jesus, Whence art thou? But Jesus gave him no answer. JOH_19:10 Then saith Pilate unto him, Speakest thou not unto me? knowest thou not that I have power to crucify thee, and have power to release thee? JOH_19:11 Jesus answered, Thou couldest have no power [at all] against me, except it were given thee from above: therefore he that delivered me unto thee hath the greater sin. PSA_72:2 He shall judge thy people with righteousness, and thy poor with judgment. PSA_72:3 The mountains shall bring peace to the people, and the little hills, by righteousness. PSA_72:4 He shall judge the poor of the people, he shall save the children of the needy, and shall break in pieces the oppressor. PSA_72:5 They shall fear thee as long as the sun and moon endure, throughout all generations. PSA_72:6 He shall come down like rain upon the mown grass: as showers [that] water the earth. PSA_72:7 In his days shall the righteous flourish; and abundance of peace so long as the moon endureth. PSA_72:8 He shall have dominion also from sea to sea, and from the river unto the ends of the earth. PRO_15:27 He that is greedy of gain troubleth his own house; but he that hateth gifts shall live. PRO_15:28 The heart of the righteous studieth to answer: but the mouth of the wicked poureth out evil things. MARJ_16:18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. LUKJ_2:49 How is it that ye sought me? wist ye not that I must be about my Father's business? LUKJ_4:4 It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God. LUKJ_4:8 Get thee behind me, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve. LUKJ_4:12 It is said, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God. LUKJ_4:18 The Spirit of the Lord [is] upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,
