1 Kings 14:2-4
1599 Geneva Bible
2 And Jeroboam said unto his wife, Up, I pray thee, [a]and disguise thyself that they know not that thou art the wife of Jeroboam, and go to Shiloh: for there is Ahijah the Prophet, which told me (A)that I should be king over this people,
3 And take [b]with [c]thee, ten loaves and [d]cracknels, and a bottle of honey, and go to him: he shall tell thee what shall become of the young man.
4 And Jeroboam’s wife did so, and arose, and went to Shiloh, and came to the house of Ahijah: but Ahijah could not see, for his [e]sight was decayed for his age.
