1 Kings 14:7-9

Christian Standard Bible

⁷ Go tell Jeroboam, ‘This is what the Lord God of Israel says: I raised you up from among the people, appointed you ruler over my people Israel, ⁸ tore the kingdom away from the house of David, and gave it to you.^(A) But you were not like my servant David, who kept my commands and followed me with all his heart, doing only what is right in my sight. ⁹ You behaved more wickedly than all who were before you.^(B) In order to anger me, you have proceeded to make for yourself other gods and cast images,^(C) but you have flung me behind your back.^(D)
