2 Chronicles 10:14 in Context — 2 Chronicles 10

12 Veio, pois, Jeroboão com todo o povo a Roboão ao terceiro dia: segundo o rei lhes havia mandado dizendo: Voltai a mim daqui a três dias.

13 E respondeu-lhes o rei asperamente; pois deixou o rei Roboão o conselho dos anciãos,

14 E falou-lhes conforme ao conselho dos rapazes, dizendo: Meu pai agravou vosso jugo, e eu acrescentarei a vosso jugo: meu pai vos castigou com açoites, e eu com escorpiões.

15 E não escutou o rei ao povo; porque a causa era de Deus, para cumprir o SENHOR sua palavra que havia falado, por Aías silonita, a Jeroboão filho de Nebate.

16 E vendo todo Israel que o rei não lhes havia ouvido, respondeu o povo ao rei, dizendo: Que parte temos nós com Davi, nem herança no filho de Jessé? Israel, cada um a suas moradas! Davi, olha agora por tua casa! Assim se foi todo Israel a suas casas.
