2 Chronicles 10:2-4

English Standard Version

² And as soon as Jeroboam the son of Nebat heard of it (for he was in Egypt, ^(A)where he had fled from King Solomon), then Jeroboam returned from Egypt. ³ And they sent and called him. And Jeroboam and all Israel came and said to Rehoboam, ^4 (B)“Your father made our yoke heavy. Now therefore lighten the hard service of your father and his heavy yoke on us, and we will serve you.”
