2 Chronicles 10:2-4 ▼

2 But when Jeroboam, the son of Nabat, who was in Egypt, (indeed he had fled to that place from Solomon) had heard it, he promptly returned.

3 And they summoned him, and he arrived with all of Israel. And they spoke to Rehoboam, saying:

4 “Your father pressed upon us a very difficult yoke. You should govern us more lightly than your father, who imposed on us a heavy servitude, and so lift up some of the burden, so that we may serve you.”
