So Israel rebelled against the house of David until this day.

And Jeroboam the son of Nebat, the Ephrathite of Zereda, the son of a widow, [was] servant of Solomon.

And it came to pass when all Israel heard that Jeroboam had returned out of Egypt, that they sent and called him to the assembly, and they made him king over Israel; and none followed the house of David except the tribe of Judah and Benjamin only.

If this people shall go up to offer sacrifice in the house of the Lord at Jerusalem, then the heart of the people will return to their lord, and to their master, to Rehoboam king of Judah, and they will kill me.
