Revised Version 1885

1 Kings 14:15-20 Revised Version 1885 (RV1885)

15. For the Lord shall smite Israel, as a reed is shaken in the water; and he shall root up Israel out of this good land, which he gave to their fathers, and shall scatter them beyond the River; because they have made their Asherim, provoking the Lord to anger.

16. And he shall give Israel up because of the sins of Jeroboam, which he hath sinned, and wherewith he hath made Israel to sin.

17. And Jeroboam's wife arose, and departed, and came to Tirzah: and as she came to the threshold of the house, the child died.

18. And all Israel buried him, and mourned for him; according to the word of the Lord, which he spake by the hand of his servant Ahijah the prophet.

19. And the rest of the acts of Jeroboam, how he warred, and how he reigned, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.

20. And the days which Jeroboam reigned were two and twenty years: and he slept with his fathers, and Nadab his son reigned in his stead.
