1 Kings 14:9-11

Christian Standard Bible

⁹You behaved more wickedly than all who were before you.^(A) In order to anger me, you have proceeded to make for yourself other gods and cast images,^(B) but you have flung me behind your back.^(C) ¹⁰Because of all this, I am about to bring disaster on the house of Jeroboam:

I will wipe out all of Jeroboam’s males,^[a]
both slave and free,^[b] in Israel;
I will sweep away the house of Jeroboam
as one sweeps away dung until it is all gone!^(D)
¹¹Anyone who belongs to Jeroboam and dies in the city,
the dogs will eat,
and anyone who dies in the field,
the birds^[c] will eat,^(E)
for the Lord has spoken!’
