1 Kings 12:12-14
1599 Geneva Bible
12 ¶ Then Jeroboam and all the people came to Rehoboam the third day, as the king had [a]appointed, saying, Come to me again the third day.
13 And the king answered the people sharply, and left the old men’s counsel that they gave him,
14 And spake to them after the counsel of the young men, saying, My father made your yoke grievous, and I will make your yoke more grievous: my father hath chastised you with rods, but I will correct you with scourges.
