When Jeroboam son of Nebat heard the news, he was still in Egypt, where he had fled from King Solomon. Jeroboam returned from Egypt.
They sent for him and Jeroboam and all Israel came and spoke to Rehoboam, saying,
“Your father made us work too hard! Now if you lighten the demands he made and don’t make us work as hard, we will serve you.”
He said to them,“Go away for three days, then return to me.” So the people went away.
King Rehoboam consulted with the older advisers who had served his father Solomon when he had been alive. He asked them,“How do you advise me to answer these people?”
They said to him,“If you are fair to these people, grant their request, and are cordial to them, they will be your servants from this time forward.”
But Rehoboam rejected their advice and consulted the young advisers who served him, with whom he had grown up.
