2 Chronicles 10:13-15
1599 Geneva Bible
13 And the king answered them sharply: and king Rehoboam left the counsel of the ancient men,
14 And spake to them after the counsel of the young men, saying, My father made your yoke grievous, but I will increase it: my father chastised you with rods, but I will correct you with scourges.
15 So the king hearkened not unto the people: for it was the [a]ordinance of God, that the Lord might perform his saying, which he had spoken [b]by Ahijah the Shilonite to Jeroboam the son of Nebat.
