6 King Rehoboam consulted with the older advisers who had served his father Solomon when he had been alive. He asked them, |How do you advise me to answer these people?|

7 They said to him, |If you are fair to these people, grant their request, and are cordial to them, they will be your servants from this time forward.|

8 But Rehoboam rejected their advice and consulted the young advisers who served him, with whom he had grown up.
