1 Kings 14:9-11
The Voice
8-9 I stripped the kingdom out from under the house of David, and I handed it over to you. But you have committed evil which exceeds those before you; and you have not been an honorable servant like David, for he honored My laws and gave his entire heart to Me. Unlike you, he sought to do My will. You have made yourself other gods and cast false idols in their honor. You have aroused My wrath by putting Me behind you. 10 Therefore, beware.
“I will bring destruction to Jeroboam’s house; and I will keep every Israelite man—both free and slave—away from him. I will wipe out Jeroboam’s house, just as one burns the dung from animals, so his house will be burned up and wiped out. There will be nothing left of his house. 11 All who remain devoted to Jeroboam, if they die in the city, will be devoured by dogs. If they die in the fields, they will be devoured by birds of the heavens.” The Eternal One has already said that is what will happen.
1 Kings 14:9-11
New International Version
9 You have done more evil(A) than all who lived before you.(B) You have made for yourself other gods, idols(C) made of metal; you have aroused(D) my anger and turned your back on me.(E)
10 “‘Because of this, I am going to bring disaster(F) on the house of Jeroboam. I will cut off from Jeroboam every last male in Israel—slave or free.[a](G) I will burn up the house of Jeroboam as one burns dung, until it is all gone.(H) 11 Dogs(I) will eat those belonging to Jeroboam who die in the city, and the birds(J) will feed on those who die in the country. The Lord has spoken!’
