1 Kings 11:26 in Context — 1 Kings 11

24 Y había juntado gente contra él, y habíase hecho capitán de una compañía, cuando David deshizo á los [de Soba]. Después se fueron á Damasco, y habitaron allí, é hiciéronle rey en Damasco.

25 Y fué adversario á Israel todos los días de Salomón; y fué otro mal con el de Adad, porque aborreció á Israel, y reinó sobre la Siria.

26 Asimismo Jeroboam hijo de Nabat, Ephrateo de Sereda, siervo de Salomón, (su madre se llamaba Serva, mujer viuda) alzó su mano contra el rey.

27 Y la causa por qué éste alzó mano contra el rey, fué esta: Salomón edificando á Millo, cerró el portillo de la ciudad de David su padre.

28 Y el varón Jeroboam era valiente [y] esforzado; y viendo Salomón al mancebo que era hombre activo, encomendóle todo el cargo de la casa de José.
