1 Kings 12:8-10

Revised Geneva Translation

⁸ But he forsook the counsel that the old men had given him, and asked counsel of the young men who had been brought up with him and waited on him.

¹⁰ Then the young men who were brought up with him, spoke to him, saying, “Thus shall you say to this people who have spoken to you, and said, ‘Your father has made our yoke heavy, but you make it lighter to us.’ Thus shall you say to them, ‘My least part shall be bigger than my father’s loins.
