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. <altar>

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. <altar> <bethel> <burnt> <children> <day>

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. <altar> <behold> <bethel> <burn> <came> <god>

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. <altar>

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. <again>

<which>

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. <also> <altar> <ashes> <given> <god>

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. <again> <answered> <became> <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. <come>

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:<bread> <drink>

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. <again> <bread> <camest> <charged>

1KI-13:10 So he went another way, and returned not by the way

that he came to Bethel. <another> <bethel> <came> <returned>

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. <all> <also> <bethel>

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. <came> <father> <god> <had> <judah> <man> <said> <seen>

1KI-13:13 And he said unto his sons, Saddle me the ass. So they

saddled him the ass:and he rode thereon, <ass> <him> <rode>

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]. <after> <camest>

<went>

1KI-13:15 Then he said unto him, Come home with me, and eat

bread. <bread> <come> <eat> <him> <home> <said> <then> <with>

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:<bread> <drink> <eat> <go> <may> <neither> <nor>

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. <again> <bread> <camest> <drink>

<word>

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. <also> <angel> <back>

<word>

1KI-13:19 So he went back with him, and did eat bread in his

house, and drank water. <back> <bread> <did> <drank> <eat> <him>

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:

<word>

1KI-13:21 And he cried unto the man of God that came from Judah,

saying, Thus saith the LORD, Forasmuch as thou hast disobeyed

the mouth of the LORD, and hast not kept the commandment which

the LORD thy God commanded thee, <came> <commanded>

<which>

1KI-13:22 But camest back, and hast eaten bread and drunk water

in the place, of the which [the LORD] did say to thee, Eat no

bread, and drink no water; thy carcase shall not come unto the

sepulchre of thy fathers. <back> <bread> <camest> <carcase>

1KI-13:23 And it came to pass, after he had eaten bread, and

after he had drunk, that he saddled for him the ass, [to wit],

for the prophet whom he had brought back. <after> <ass> <back>

1KI-13:24 And when he was gone, a lion met him by the way, and

slew him:and his carcase was cast in the way, and the ass stood

by it, the lion also stood by the carcase. <also> <ass>

<when>

1KI-13:25 And, behold, men passed by, and saw the carcase cast

in the way, and the lion standing by the carcase:and they came

and told [it] in the city where the old prophet dwelt. <behold>

1KI-13:26 And when the prophet that brought him back from the

way heard [thereof], he said, It [is] the man of God, who was

disobedient unto the word of the LORD:therefore the LORD hath

delivered him unto the lion, which hath torn him, and slain him,

according to the word of the LORD, which he spake unto him.

1KI-13:27 And he spake to his sons, saying, Saddle me the ass.

And they saddled [him]. <ass> <saddle> <saddled> <saying> <sons>

<spake>

1KI-13:28 And he went and found his carcase cast in the way, and

the ass and the lion standing by the carcase:the lion had not

eaten the carcase, nor torn the ass. <ass> <carcase> <cast>

1KI-13:29 And the prophet took up the carcase of the man of God,

and laid it upon the ass, and brought it back:and the old

prophet came to the city, to mourn and to bury him. <ass> <back>

1KI-13:30 And he laid his carcase in his own grave; and they

mourned over him, [saying], Alas, my brother! <alas> <brother>

1KI-13:31 And it came to pass, after he had buried him, that he

spake to his sons, saying, When I am dead, then bury me in the

sepulchre wherein the man of God [is] buried; lay my bones

beside his bones:<after> <beside> <bones> <buried> <bury> <came>

1KI-13:32 For the saying which he cried by the word of the LORD

against the altar in Bethel, and against all the houses of the

high places which [are] in the cities of Samaria, shall surely

come to pass. <against> <all> <altar> <bethel> <cities> <come>

1KI-13:33 After this thing Jeroboam returned not from his evil

way, but made again of the lowest of the people priests of the

high places:whosoever would, he consecrated him, and he became

[one] of the priests of the high places. <after> <again>

1KI-13:34 And this thing became sin unto the house of Jeroboam,

even to cut [it] off, and to destroy [it] from off the face of

the earth. <became> <cut> <destroy> <earth> <even> <face>

1KI-14:1 At that time Abijah the son of Jeroboam fell sick.

1KI-14:2 And Jeroboam said to his wife, Arise, I pray thee, and

disguise thyself, that thou be not known to be the wife of

Jeroboam; and get thee to Shiloh:behold, there [is] Ahijah the

prophet, which told me that [I should be] king over this people.

1KI-14:3 And take with thee ten loaves, and cracknels, and a

cruse of honey, and go to him:he shall tell thee what shall

become of the child. <become> <child> <cracknels> <cruse> <go>

1KI-14:4 And Jeroboam's wife did so, and arose, and went to

Shiloh, and came to the house of Ahijah. But Ahijah could not

see; for his eyes were set by reason of his age. <age> <ahijah>

1KI-14:5 And the LORD said unto Ahijah, Behold, the wife of

Jeroboam cometh to ask a thing of thee for her son; for he [is]

sick:thus and thus shalt thou say unto her:for it shall be, when

she cometh in, that she shall feign herself [to be] another

[woman]. <ahijah> <another> <ask> <behold> <cometh> <feign>

1KI-14:6 And it was [so], when Ahijah heard the sound of her

feet, as she came in at the door, that he said, Come in, thou

wife of Jeroboam; why feignest thou thyself [to be] another? for

I [am] sent to thee [with] heavy [tidings]. <ahijah> <another>

<wife>

1KI-14:7 Go, tell Jeroboam, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel,

Forasmuch as I exalted thee from among the people, and made thee

prince over my people Israel, <among> <exalted> <forasmuch> <go>

1KI-14:8 And rent the kingdom away from the house of David, and

gave it thee:and [yet] thou hast not been as my servant David,

who kept my commandments, and who followed me with all his heart,

to do [that] only [which was] right in mine eyes; <all> <away>

1KI-14:9 But hast done evil above all that were before thee:for

thou hast gone and made thee other gods, and molten images, to

provoke me to anger, and hast cast me behind thy back:<all>

1KI-14:10 Therefore, behold, I will bring evil upon the house of

Jeroboam, and will cut off from Jeroboam him that pisseth

against the wall, [and] him that is shut up and left in Israel,

and will take away the remnant of the house of Jeroboam, as a

man taketh away dung, till it be all gone. <against> <all>

1KI-14:11 Him that dieth of Jeroboam in the city shall the dogs

eat; and him that dieth in the field shall the fowls of the air

eat:for the LORD hath spoken [it]. <air> <city> <dieth> <dogs>

1KI-14:12 Arise thou therefore, get thee to thine own house:

[and] when thy feet enter into the city, the child shall die.

1KI-14:13 And all Israel shall mourn for him, and bury him:for

he only of Jeroboam shall come to the grave, because in him

there is found [some] good thing toward the LORD God of Israel

in the house of Jeroboam. <all> <because> <bury> <come> <found>

1KI-14:14 Moreover the LORD shall raise him up a king over

Israel, who shall cut off the house of Jeroboam that day:but

what? even now. <cut> <day> <even> <him> <house> <israel>

1KI-14:15 For the LORD shall smite Israel, as a reed is shaken

in the water, and he shall root up Israel out of this good land,

which he gave to their fathers, and shall scatter them beyond

the river, because they have made their groves, provoking the

LORD to anger. <anger> <because> <beyond> <fathers> <gave>

<which>

1KI-14:16 And he shall give Israel up because of the sins of

Jeroboam, who did sin, and who made Israel to sin. <because>

1KI-14:17 And Jeroboam's wife arose, and departed, and came to

Tirzah:[and] when she came to the threshold of the door, the

child died; <arose> <came> <child> <departed> <door> <she>

1KI-14:18 And they buried him; and all Israel mourned for him,

according to the word of the LORD, which he spake by the hand of

his servant Ahijah the prophet. <ahijah> <all> <buried> <hand>

1KI-14:19 And the rest of the acts of Jeroboam, how he warred,

and how he reigned, behold, they [are] written in the book of

the chronicles of the kings of Israel. <behold> <book>

1KI-14:20 And the days which Jeroboam reigned [were] two and

twenty years:and he slept with his fathers, and Nadab his son

reigned in his stead. <days> <fathers> <jeroboam> <nadab>

<years>

1KI-14:21 And Rehoboam the son of Solomon reigned in Judah.

Rehoboam [was] forty and one years old when he began to reign,

and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city which the

LORD did choose out of all the tribes of Israel, to put his name

there. And his mother's name [was] Naamah an Ammonitess. <all>

1KI-14:22 And Judah did evil in the sight of the LORD, and they

provoked him to jealousy with their sins which they had

committed, above all that their fathers had done. <all>

1KI-14:23 For they also built them high places, and images, and

groves, on every high hill, and under every green tree. <also>

1KI-14:24 And there were also sodomites in the land:[and] they

did according to all the abominations of the nations which the

LORD cast out before the children of Israel. <all> <also>

1KI-14:25 And it came to pass in the fifth year of king Rehoboam,

[that] Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem:

1KI-14:26 And he took away the treasures of the house of the

LORD, and the treasures of the king's house; he even took away

all:and he took away all the shields of gold which Solomon had

made. <all> <away> <even> <gold> <had> <house> <lord> <made>

1KI-14:27 And king Rehoboam made in their stead brazen shields,

and committed [them] unto the hands of the chief of the guard,

which kept the door of the king's house. <brazen> <chief>

1KI-14:28 And it was [so], when the king went into the house of

the LORD, that the guard bare them, and brought them back into

the guard chamber. <back> <bare> <brought> <chamber> <guard>

1KI-14:29 Now the rest of the acts of Rehoboam, and all that he

did, [are] they not written in the book of the chronicles of the

kings of Judah? <all> <book> <chronicles> <did> <kings> <now>

1KI-14:30 And there was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all

[their] days. <all> <between> <days> <jeroboam> <rehoboam>

1KI-14:31 And Rehoboam slept with his fathers, and was buried

with his fathers in the city of David. And his mother's name

[was] Naamah an Ammonitess. And Abijam his son reigned in his

stead. <ammonitess> <buried> <city> <david> <fathers> <naamah>

1KI-15:1 Now in the eighteenth year of king Jeroboam the son of

Nebat reigned Abijam over Judah. <eighteenth> <jeroboam> <judah>

1KI-15:2 Three years reigned he in Jerusalem. And his mother's

name [was] Maachah, the daughter of Abishalom. <daughter>

1KI-15:3 And he walked in all the sins of his father, which he

had done before him:and his heart was not perfect with the LORD

his God, as the heart of David his father. <all> <before>

1KI-15:4 Nevertheless for David's sake did the LORD his God give

him a lamp in Jerusalem, to set up his son after him, and to

establish Jerusalem:<after> <did> <establish> <give> <god> <him>

1KI-15:5 Because David did [that which was] right in the eyes of

the LORD, and turned not aside from any [thing] that he

commanded him all the days of his life, save only in the matter

of Uriah the Hittite. <all> <any> <aside> <because> <commanded>

1KI-15:6 And there was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all the

days of his life. <all> <between> <days> <jeroboam> <life>

1KI-15:7 Now the rest of the acts of Abijam, and all that he did,

[are] they not written in the book of the chronicles of the

kings of Judah? And there was war between Abijam and Jeroboam.

1KI-15:8 And Abijam slept with his fathers; and they buried him

in the city of David:and Asa his son reigned in his stead. <asa>

1KI-15:9 And in the twentieth year of Jeroboam king of Israel

reigned Asa over Judah. <asa> <israel> <jeroboam> <judah> <king>

1KI-15:10 And forty and one years reigned he in Jerusalem. And

his mother's name [was] Maachah, the daughter of Abishalom.

<years>

1KI-15:11 And Asa did [that which was] right in the eyes of the

LORD, as [did] David his father. <asa> <david> <did> <eyes>

1KI-15:12 And he took away the sodomites out of the land, and

removed all the idols that his fathers had made. <all> <away>

<took>

1KI-15:13 And also Maachah his mother, even her he removed from

[being] queen, because she had made an idol in a grove; and Asa

destroyed her idol, and burnt [it] by the brook Kidron. <also>

1KI-15:14 But the high places were not removed:nevertheless

Asa's heart was perfect with the LORD all his days. <all> <days>

1KI-15:15 And he brought in the things which his father had

dedicated, and the things which himself had dedicated, into the

house of the LORD, silver, and gold, and vessels. <brought>

1KI-15:16 And there was war between Asa and Baasha king of

Israel all their days. <all> <asa> <baasha> <between> <days>

1KI-15:17 And Baasha king of Israel went up against Judah, and

built Ramah, that he might not suffer any to go out or come in

to Asa king of Judah. <against> <any> <asa> <baasha> <built>

1KI-15:18 Then Asa took all the silver and the gold [that were]

left in the treasures of the house of the LORD, and the

treasures of the king's house, and delivered them into the hand

of his servants:and king Asa sent them to Benhadad, the son of

Tabrimon, the son of Hezion, king of Syria, that dwelt at

Damascus, saying, <all> <asa> <benhadad> <damascus> <delivered>

1KI-15:19 [There is] a league between me and thee, [and] between

my father and thy father:behold, I have sent unto thee a present

of silver and gold; come and break thy league with Baasha king

of Israel, that he may depart from me. <baasha> <behold>

1KI-15:20 So Benhadad hearkened unto king Asa, and sent the

captains of the hosts which he had against the cities of Israel,

and smote Ijon, and Dan, and Abelbethmaachah, and all Cinneroth,

with all the land of Naphtali. <against> <all> <asa> <benhadad>

1KI-15:21 And it came to pass, when Baasha heard [thereof], that

he left off building of Ramah, and dwelt in Tirzah. <baasha>

1KI-15:22 Then king Asa made a proclamation throughout all Judah;

none [was] exempted:and they took away the stones of Ramah, and

the timber thereof, wherewith Baasha had builded; and king Asa

built with them Geba of Benjamin, and Mizpah. <all> <asa> <away>

1KI-15:23 The rest of all the acts of Asa, and all his might,

and all that he did, and the cities which he built, [are] they

not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

Nevertheless in the time of his old age he was diseased in his

feet. <age> <all> <asa> <book> <built> <chronicles> <cities>

1KI-15:24 And Asa slept with his fathers, and was buried with

his fathers in the city of David his father:and Jehoshaphat his

son reigned in his stead. <asa> <buried> <city> <david> <father>

1KI-15:25 And Nadab the son of Jeroboam began to reign over

Israel in the second year of Asa king of Judah, and reigned over

Israel two years. <asa> <began> <israel> <jeroboam> <judah>

1KI-15:26 And he did evil in the sight of the LORD, and walked

in the way of his father, and in his sin wherewith he made

Israel to sin. <did> <evil> <father> <israel> <lord> <made>

1KI-15:27 And Baasha the son of Ahijah, of the house of Issachar,

conspired against him; and Baasha smote him at Gibbethon, which

[belonged] to the Philistines; for Nadab and all Israel laid

siege to Gibbethon. <against> <ahijah> <all> <baasha>

1KI-15:28 Even in the third year of Asa king of Judah did Baasha

slay him, and reigned in his stead. <asa> <baasha> <did> <even>

1KI-15:29 And it came to pass, when he reigned, [that] he smote

all the house of Jeroboam; he left not to Jeroboam any that

breathed, until he had destroyed him, according unto the saying

of the LORD, which he spake by his servant Ahijah the Shilonite:

1KI-15:30 Because of the sins of Jeroboam which he sinned, and

which he made Israel sin, by his provocation wherewith he

provoked the LORD God of Israel to anger. <anger> <because>

1KI-15:31 Now the rest of the acts of Nadab, and all that he did,

[are] they not written in the book of the chronicles of the

kings of Israel? <all> <book> <chronicles> <did> <kings> <nadab>

1KI-15:32 And there was war between Asa and Baasha king of

Israel all their days. <all> <asa> <baasha> <between> <days>

1KI-15:33 In the third year of Asa king of Judah began Baasha

the son of Ahijah to reign over all Israel in Tirzah, twenty and

four years. <ahijah> <all> <asa> <baasha> <began> <four>

1KI-15:34 And he did evil in the sight of the LORD, and walked

in the way of Jeroboam, and in his sin wherewith he made Israel

to sin. <did> <evil> <israel> <jeroboam> <lord> <made> <sight>

1KI-16:1 Then the word of the LORD came to Jehu the son of

Hanani against Baasha, saying, <against> <baasha> <came>

1KI-16:2 Forasmuch as I exalted thee out of the dust, and made

thee prince over my people Israel; and thou hast walked in the

way of Jeroboam, and hast made my people Israel to sin, to

provoke me to anger with their sins; <anger> <dust> <exalted>

1KI-16:3 Behold, I will take away the posterity of Baasha, and

the posterity of his house; and will make thy house like the

house of Jeroboam the son of Nebat. <away> <baasha> <behold>

1KI-16:4 Him that dieth of Baasha in the city shall the dogs eat;

and him that dieth of his in the fields shall the fowls of the

air eat. <air> <baasha> <city> <dieth> <dogs> <eat> <fields>

1KI-16:5 Now the rest of the acts of Baasha, and what he did,

and his might, [are] they not written in the book of the

chronicles of the kings of Israel? <baasha> <book> <chronicles>

1KI-16:6 So Baasha slept with his fathers, and was buried in

Tirzah:and Elah his son reigned in his stead. <baasha> <buried>

<with>

1KI-16:7 And also by the hand of the prophet Jehu the son of

Hanani came the word of the LORD against Baasha, and against his

house, even for all the evil that he did in the sight of the

LORD, in provoking him to anger with the work of his hands, in

being like the house of Jeroboam; and because he killed him.

1KI-16:8 In the twenty and sixth year of Asa king of Judah began

Elah the son of Baasha to reign over Israel in Tirzah, two years.

1KI-16:9 And his servant Zimri, captain of half [his] chariots,

conspired against him, as he was in Tirzah, drinking himself

drunk in the house of Arza steward of [his] house in Tirzah.

1KI-16:10 And Zimri went in and smote him, and killed him, in

the twenty and seventh year of Asa king of Judah, and reigned in

his stead. <asa> <him> <judah> <killed> <king> <reigned>

1KI-16:11 And it came to pass, when he began to reign, as soon

as he sat on his throne, [that] he slew all the house of Baasha:

he left him not one that pisseth against a wall, neither of his

kinsfolks, nor of his friends. <against> <all> <baasha> <began>

1KI-16:12 Thus did Zimri destroy all the house of Baasha,

according to the word of the LORD, which he spake against Baasha

by Jehu the prophet, <against> <all> <baasha> <destroy> <did>

1KI-16:13 For all the sins of Baasha, and the sins of Elah his

son, by which they sinned, and by which they made Israel to sin,

in provoking the LORD God of Israel to anger with their vanities.

1KI-16:14 Now the rest of the acts of Elah, and all that he did,

[are] they not written in the book of the chronicles of the

kings of Israel? <all> <book> <chronicles> <did> <elah> <kings>

1KI-16:15 In the twenty and seventh year of Asa king of Judah

did Zimri reign seven days in Tirzah. And the people [were]

encamped against Gibbethon, which [belonged] to the Philistines.

1KI-16:16 And the people [that were] encamped heard say, Zimri

hath conspired, and hath also slain the king:wherefore all

Israel made Omri, the captain of the host, king over Israel that

day in the camp. <all> <also> <camp> <captain> <conspired> <day>

1KI-16:17 And Omri went up from Gibbethon, and all Israel with

him, and they besieged Tirzah. <all> <besieged> <gibbethon>

1KI-16:18 And it came to pass, when Zimri saw that the city was

taken, that he went into the palace of the king's house, and

burnt the king's house over him with fire, and died, <burnt>

1KI-16:19 For his sins which he sinned in doing evil in the

sight of the LORD, in walking in the way of Jeroboam, and in his

sin which he did, to make Israel to sin. <did> <doing> <evil>

1KI-16:20 Now the rest of the acts of Zimri, and his treason

that he wrought, [are] they not written in the book of the

chronicles of the kings of Israel? <book> <chronicles> <kings>

1KI-16:21 Then were the people of Israel divided into two parts:

half of the people followed Tibni the son of Ginath, to make him

king; and half followed Omri. <divided> <followed> <ginath>

1KI-16:22 But the people that followed Omri prevailed against

the people that followed Tibni the son of Ginath:so Tibni died,

and Omri reigned. <against> <died> <followed> <ginath> <omri>
