1. At that time Abijah the son of Jeroboam became sick.
2. Jeroboam said to his wife, "Arise now, and disguise yourself so that they will not know that you are the wife of Jeroboam, and go to Shiloh; behold, Ahijah the prophet is there, who spoke concerning me that I would be king over this people.
3. Take ten loaves with you, some cakes and a jar of honey, and go to him. He will tell you what will happen to the boy."
4. Jeroboam's wife did so, and arose and went to Shiloh, and came to the house of Ahijah. Now Ahijah could not see, for his eyes were dim because of his age.
