1 Kings 14:16-22 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

16. He will give up Israel on account of the sins of Jeroboam, which he committed and with which he made Israel to sin."

17. Then Jeroboam's wife arose and departed and came to Tirzah. As she was entering the threshold of the house, the child died.

18. All Israel buried him and mourned for him, according to the word of the Lord which He spoke through His servant Ahijah the prophet.

19. Now the rest of the acts of Jeroboam, how he made war and how he reigned, behold, they are written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.

20. The time that Jeroboam reigned was twenty-two years; and he slept with his fathers, and Nadab his son reigned in his place.

21. Now Rehoboam the son of Solomon reigned in Judah. Rehoboam was forty-one years old when he became king, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city which the Lord had chosen from all the tribes of Israel to put His name there. And his mother's name was Naamah the Ammonitess.

22. Judah did evil in the sight of the Lord, and they provoked Him to jealousy more than all that their fathers had done, with the sins which they committed.
