16. And all Israel have seen that the king hath not hearkened to them, and the people send back [to] the king, saying, `What portion have we in David? yea, there is no inheritance in a son of Jesse; each to thy tents, O Israel; now, see thy house--David,' and all Israel go to their tents.
17. As to the sons of Israel who are dwelling in the cities of Judah--Rehoboam reigneth over them.
18. And king Rehoboam sendeth Hadoram, who [is] over the tribute, and the sons of Israel cast at him stones, and he dieth; and king Rehoboam hath strengthened himself to go up into a chariot to flee to Jerusalem;
19. and Israel transgress against the house of David unto this day.
