8 I tore the kingdom away from the house of David and gave it to you. Yet you have not been like my servant David, who kept my commandments and followed me with his whole heart, doing only what is right in my sight.
9 You have done more evil than all who were before you: you have gone and made for yourself other gods and molten images to provoke me; but me you have cast behind your back.
10 Therefore, I am bringing evil upon the house of Jeroboam:I will cut off from Jeroboam’s line every male—bond or free—in Israel;I will burn up what is left of the house of Jeroboamas dung is burned, completely.
11 Anyone of Jeroboam’s line who dies in the city,dogs will devour;anyone who dies in the field,the birds of the sky will devour.For the Lord has spoken!’
12 As for you, leave, and go home! As you step inside the city, the child will die,
13 and all Israel will mourn him and bury him, for he alone of Jeroboam’s line will be laid in the grave, since in him alone of Jeroboam’s house has something pleasing to the Lord, the God of Israel, been found.
14 The Lord will raise up for himself a king over Israel who will cut off the house of Jeroboam—today, at this very moment!
