12 Arise therefore, go to your own house. aWhen your feet enter the city, the child shall die.
13 And all Israel shall mourn for him and bury him, for he is the only one of Jeroboam who shall come to the grave, because in him athere is found something good toward the Lord God of Israel in the house of Jeroboam.
14 a“Moreover the Lord will raise up for Himself a king over Israel who shall cut off the house of Jeroboam; this is the day. What? Even now!
15 For the Lord will strike Israel, as a reed is shaken in the water. He will auproot Israel from this bgood land which He gave to their fathers, and will scatter them cbeyond the River, dbecause they have made their wooden images, provoking the Lord to anger.
16 And He will give Israel up because of the sins of Jeroboam, awho sinned and who made Israel sin.”
17 Then Jeroboam’s wife arose and departed, and came to aTirzah. bWhen she came to the threshold of the house, the child died.
18 And they buried him; and all Israel mourned for him, aaccording to the word of the Lord which He spoke through His servant Ahijah the prophet.
