1 Kings 11:27-29

Revised Geneva Translation

²⁷ And this was the reason that he lifted up his hand against the king: When Solomon built Millo, he repaired the broken places of the City of David, his father.

²⁸ And this man, Jeroboam, was a man of strength and courage. And Solomon, seeing that the young man was industrious, made him overseer of all the labor of the House of Joseph.

²⁹ And at that time, when Jeroboam went out of Jerusalem, the Prophet Ahijah the Shilonite found him in the road, having a new garment on him. And those two were alone in the field.
