1 Kings 14:14-16

International Children’s Bible

¹⁴ “The Lord will put a new king over Israel. That king will destroy Jeroboam’s family. This will happen soon. ¹⁵ Then the Lord will punish Israel. The people of Israel will be like grass moving in the water. The Lord will pull up Israel from this good land. This is the land he gave their ancestors. But he will scatter Israel beyond the Euphrates River. This will happen because the Lord is angry with the people. They made him angry when they made idols to worship Asherah. ¹⁶ Jeroboam sinned, and then he made the people of Israel sin. So the Lord will let the people of Israel be defeated.”
