14. “In addition, the lord will raise up a king over Israel who will destroy the family of Jeroboam. This will happen today, even now!
15. Then the lord will shake Israel like a reed whipped about in a stream. He will uproot the people of Israel from this good land that he gave their ancestors and will scatter them beyond the Euphrates River, for they have angered the lord with the Asherah poles they have set up for worship.
16. He will abandon Israel because Jeroboam sinned and made Israel sin along with him.”
17. So Jeroboam’s wife returned to Tirzah, and the child died just as she walked through the door of her home.
18. And all Israel buried him and mourned for him, as the lord had promised through the prophet Ahijah.
19. The rest of the events in Jeroboam’s reign, including all his wars and how he ruled, are recorded in The Book of the History of the Kings of Israel.
