1 Kings 11:26 in Context — 1 Kings 11

24 Il avait rassemblé des gens auprès de lui, et il était chef de bande, lorsque David massacra les troupes de son maître. Ils allèrent à Damas, et s’y établirent, et ils régnèrent à Damas.

25 Il fut un ennemi d’Israël pendant toute la vie de Salomon, en même temps qu’Hadad lui faisait du mal, et il avait Israël en aversion. Il régna sur la Syrie.

26 Jéroboam aussi, serviteur de Salomon, leva la main contre le roi. Il était fils de Nebath, Éphratien de Tseréda, et il avait pour mère une veuve nommée Tserua.

27 Voici à quelle occasion il leva la main contre le roi. Salomon bâtissait Millo, et fermait la brèche de la cité de David, son père.

28 Jéroboam était fort et vaillant; et Salomon, ayant vu ce jeune homme à l’œuvre, lui donna la surveillance de tous les gens de corvée de la maison de Joseph.
