1 Kings 12:6-8
6 And King Rehoboam aconsulted with the elders who had ▼▼Lit stood before
served his father Solomon while he was still alive, saying, “How do you advise me to answer this people?” 7Then they spoke to him, saying, “ cIf you will be a servant to this people today, and will serve them and ▼▼Lit answer them
grant them their request, and speak pleasant words to them, then they will be your servants always.” 8But he ignored the advice of the elders which they had given him, and consulted with the young men who had grown up with him ▼▼Lit who stood before
and served him.
