1 Kings 11:26-28

26 aJeroboam the son of Nebat, ban Ephraimite of Zeredah, a servant of Solomon, whose mother’s name was Zeruah, a widow, also clifted up his hand against the king. 27And this was the reason why he lifted up his hand against the king. dSolomon built the Millo, and closed up the breach of the city of David his father. 28The man Jeroboam was very able, and when Solomon saw that the young man was industrious he gave him charge over all the forced labor of the house of Joseph.
