8 tore the kingdom away from the house of David, and gave it to you. But you were not like My servant David, who kept My commands and followed Me with all of his heart, doing only what is right in My eyes.
9 You behaved more wickedly than all who were before you. In order to provoke Me, you have proceeded to make for yourself other gods and cast images, but you have flung Me behind your back.
10 Because of all this, I am about to bring disaster on the house of Jeroboam:I will eliminate all of Jeroboam’s males, both slave and free, in Israel;I will sweep away the house of Jeroboamas one sweeps away dung until it is all gone!
11 Anyone who belongs to Jeroboam and dies in the city,the dogs will eat,and anyone who dies in the field,the birds of the sky will eat, for the Lord has said it! ’
12 “As for you, get up and go to your house. When your feet enter the city, the boy will die.
13 All Israel will mourn for him and bury him. He alone out of Jeroboam’s house will be put in the family tomb, because out of the house of Jeroboam the Lord God of Israel found something good only in him.
14 The Lord will raise up for Himself a king over Israel, who will eliminate the house of Jeroboam. This is the day, yes, even today!
