26 And Jeroboam son of Nebat was an Ephraimite from Zereda—the name of his mother was Zeruah, a widow, and a servant of Solomon—and he lifted up a hand against the king. 27 And this is the thing for which he lifted up a hand against the king: Solomon had built the Millo and he had closed up the breach of the city of David his father. 28 And the man Jeroboam was mighty in valor. And Solomon saw the young man, that he was doing business, and he appointed him over all the forced labor of the house of Joseph. 1 Kings 11:26-28, Berean Literal Bible. Public domain.
