1 At that time Abijah son of Jeroboam became ill,
2 and Jeroboam said to his wife, ‘Go, disguise yourself, so that you won’t be recognised as the wife of Jeroboam. Then go to Shiloh. Ahijah the prophet is there – the one who told me I would be king over this people.
3 Take ten loaves of bread with you, some cakes and a jar of honey, and go to him. He will tell you what will happen to the boy.’
4 So Jeroboam’s wife did what he said and went to Ahijah’s house in Shiloh.Now Ahijah could not see; his sight was gone because of his age.
