1 Kings 14:14-16

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹⁴ The Lord will appoint a king over Israel. That king will destroy Jeroboam’s house. This will happen today. It will happen right now.

¹⁵ “The Lord will strike Israel like cattails which shake in the water. He will uproot Israel from this good land which he gave their ancestors. He will scatter them beyond the Euphrates River because they dedicated poles to the goddess Asherah and made the Lord furious. ¹⁶ So the Lord will desert Israel because of Jeroboam’s sins, the sins which he led Israel to commit.”
