5 And Hashem said unto Achiyah, Hinei, the eshet Yarov`am cometh to seek davar from thee for her ben; for he is choleh (ill); thus and thus shalt thou give davar unto her; for it shall be, when she cometh in, that she shall feign to be a stranger woman.
6 And it was so, when Achiyah heard the sound of her raglayim, as she came to the petach, that he said, Come in, thou eshet Yarov`am; why feignest thou to be a stranger woman? For I am sent to thee with kashah (a harsh prophetic foresight).
7 Go, tell Yarov`am, Thus saith Hashem Elohei Yisroel, Forasmuch as I exalted thee from among the people, and made thee nagid over My people Yisroel,
