Chapter 14
6
So when Ahijah heard the sound of her feet coming in the doorway, he said, 'Come in, wife of Jeroboam; why do you make yourself unrecognizable? Nevertheless, I am sent to you
with
a harsh
message.
7
Go, say to Jeroboam, ‘This is what the
Lord
, the God of Israel says: 'Because I exalted you from among the people and made you leader over My people Israel,
8
and tore the kingdom away from the house of David and gave it to you—yet you have not been like My servant David, who kept My commandments and followed Me with all his heart, to do only that which was right in My sight;
9
you also have done more evil than all who were before you, and you have gone and made for yourself other gods and cast metal images to provoke Me to anger, and have thrown Me behind your back—
10
therefore behold, I am bringing disaster on the house of Jeroboam, and I will eliminate from Jeroboam every male person, both bond and free in Israel, and I will make a clean sweep of the house of Jeroboam, just as one sweeps away dung until it is all gone.
11
Anyone belonging to Jeroboam who dies in the city, the dogs will eat. And anyone who dies in the field, the birds of the sky will eat; for the
Lord
has spoken
it.
'?’
12
Now you, arise, go to your house. When your feet enter the city the child will die.
King James Version
Chapter 14
6
And it was so, when Ahijah heard the sound of her feet, as she came in at the door, that he said, Come in, thou wife of Jeroboam; why feignest thou thyself to be another? for I am sent to thee with heavy tidings.
7
Go, tell Jeroboam, Thus saith the
Lord
God of Israel, Forasmuch as I exalted thee from among the people, and made thee prince over my people Israel,
8
And rent the kingdom away from the house of David, and gave it thee: and yet thou hast not been as my servant David, who kept my commandments, and who followed me with all his heart, to do that only which was right in mine eyes;
9
But hast done evil above all that were before thee: for thou hast gone and made thee other gods, and molten images, to provoke me to anger, and hast cast me behind thy back:
10
Therefore, behold, I will bring evil upon the house of Jeroboam, and will cut off from Jeroboam him that pisseth against the wall, and him that is shut up and left in Israel, and will take away the remnant of the house of Jeroboam, as a man taketh away dung, till it be all gone.
11
Him that dieth of Jeroboam in the city shall the dogs eat; and him that dieth in the field shall the fowls of the air eat: for the
Lord
hath spoken it.
12
Arise thou therefore, get thee to thine own house: and when thy feet enter into the city, the child shall die.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 14
6
When Ahijah heard the sound of her feet entering the door, he said, "Come in, wife of Jeroboam! Why are you disguised? I have bad news for you.
7
Go tell Jeroboam, ‘This is what the
Lord
God of Israel says: I raised you up from among the people, appointed you ruler over my people Israel,
8
tore the kingdom away from the house of David, and gave it to you. But you were not like my servant David, who kept my commands and followed me with all his heart, doing only what is right in my sight.
9
You behaved more wickedly than all who were before you. In order to anger me, you have proceeded to make for yourself other gods and cast images, but you have flung me behind your back.
10
Because of all this, I am about to bring disaster on the house of Jeroboam:
I will wipe out all of Jeroboam’s males,
both slave and free, in Israel;
I will sweep away the house of Jeroboam
as one sweeps away dung until it is all gone!
11
Anyone who belongs to Jeroboam and dies in the city,
the dogs will eat,
and anyone who dies in the field,
the birds will eat,
for the
Lord
has spoken!’
12
"As for you, get up and go to your house. When your feet enter the city, the boy will die.
New Living Translation
Chapter 14
6
So when Ahijah heard her footsteps at the door, he called out, 'Come in, wife of Jeroboam! Why are you pretending to be someone else?' Then he told her, 'I have bad news for you.
7
Give your husband, Jeroboam, this message from the
Lord
, the God of Israel: ‘I promoted you from the ranks of the common people and made you ruler over my people Israel.
8
I ripped the kingdom away from the family of David and gave it to you. But you have not been like my servant David, who obeyed my commands and followed me with all his heart and always did whatever I wanted.
9
You have done more evil than all who lived before you. You have made other gods for yourself and have made me furious with your gold calves. And since you have turned your back on me,
10
I will bring disaster on your dynasty and will destroy every one of your male descendants, slave and free alike, anywhere in Israel. I will burn up your royal dynasty as one burns up trash until it is all gone.
11
The members of Jeroboam’s family who die in the city will be eaten by dogs, and those who die in the field will be eaten by vultures. I, the
Lord
, have spoken.’'
12
Then Ahijah said to Jeroboam’s wife, 'Go on home, and when you enter the city, the child will die.
English Standard Version
Chapter 14
6
But when Ahijah heard the sound of her feet, as she came in at the door, he said, "Come in, wife of Jeroboam. Why do you pretend to be another? For I am charged with unbearable news for you.
7
Go, tell Jeroboam, ‘Thus says the
Lord
, the God of Israel: "Because I exalted you from among the people and made you leader over my people Israel
8
and tore the kingdom away from the house of David and gave it to you, and yet you have not been like my servant David, who kept my commandments and followed me with all his heart, doing only that which was right in my eyes,
9
but you have done evil above all who were before you and have gone and made for yourself other gods and metal images, provoking me to anger, and have cast me behind your back,
10
therefore behold, I will bring harm upon the house of Jeroboam and will cut off from Jeroboam every male, both bond and free in Israel, and will burn up the house of Jeroboam, as a man burns up dung until it is all gone.
11
Anyone belonging to Jeroboam who dies in the city the dogs shall eat, and anyone who dies in the open country the birds of the heavens shall eat, for the
Lord
has spoken it."’
12
Arise therefore, go to your house. When your feet enter the city, the child shall die.
New International Version
Chapter 14
6
So when Ahijah heard the sound of her footsteps at the door, he said, "Come in, wife of Jeroboam. Why this pretense? I have been sent to you with bad news.
7
Go, tell Jeroboam that this is what the
Lord
, the God of Israel, says: ‘I raised you up from among the people and appointed you ruler over my people Israel.
8
I tore the kingdom away from the house of David and gave it to you, but you have not been like my servant David, who kept my commands and followed me with all his heart, doing only what was right in my eyes.
9
You have done more evil than all who lived before you. You have made for yourself other gods, idols made of metal; you have aroused my anger and turned your back on me.
10
" ‘Because of this, I am going to bring disaster on the house of Jeroboam. I will cut off from Jeroboam every last male in Israel—slave or free. I will burn up the house of Jeroboam as one burns dung, until it is all gone.
11
Dogs will eat those belonging to Jeroboam who die in the city, and the birds will feed on those who die in the country. The
Lord
has spoken!’
12
"As for you, go back home. When you set foot in your city, the boy will die.
New King James Version
Chapter 14
6
And so it was, when Ahijah heard the sound of her footsteps as she came through the door, he said, “Come in, wife of Jeroboam. Why do you pretend
to be
another
person?
For I
have been
sent to you
with
bad
news.
7
Go, tell Jeroboam, ‘Thus says the
Lord
God of Israel: “Because I exalted you from among the people, and made you ruler over My people Israel,
8
and tore the kingdom away from the house of David, and gave it to you; and
yet
you have not been as My servant David, who kept My commandments and who followed Me with all his heart, to do only
what was
right in My eyes;
9
but you have done more evil than all who were before you, for you have gone and made for yourself other gods and molded images to provoke Me to anger, and have cast Me behind your back—
10
therefore behold! I will bring disaster on the house of Jeroboam, and will cut off from Jeroboam every male in Israel, bond and free; I will take away the remnant of the house of Jeroboam, as one takes away refuse until it is all gone.
11
The dogs shall eat whoever belongs to Jeroboam and dies in the city, and the birds of the air shall eat whoever dies in the field; for the
Lord
has spoken!” ’
12
Arise therefore, go to your own house. When your feet enter the city, the child shall die.
