At that time Abijah the son of Jeroboam became sick. 1Ki 13:33-341Ki 14:12-131Sa 31:21Sa 4:19-202Sa 12:15Exo 20:5 Jeroboam said to his wife, “Please get up and disguise yourself, so that you won’t be recognized as Jeroboam’s wife. Go to Shiloh. Behold, Ahijah the prophet is there, who said that I would be king over this people. 1Ki 11:29-381Sa 28:82Sa 14:22Ch 18:291Ki 14:5-61Ki 22:30Jos 18:1Luk 12:2 Take with you ten loaves of bread, some cakes, and a jar of honey, and go to him. He will tell you what will become of the child.” 1Sa 9:7-81Ki 13:72Ki 4:422Ki 1:22Ki 5:152Ki 5:52Ki 8:7-9Jhn 11:3
Jeroboam’s wife did so, and arose and went to Shiloh, and came to Ahijah’s house. Now Ahijah could not see, for his eyes were set by reason of his age. 1Ki 11:291Sa 3:21Sa 4:151Ki 14:21Sa 4:3-4Deu 34:7Ecc 12:3Gen 27:1 The LORD said to Ahijah, “Behold, Jeroboam’s wife is coming to inquire of you concerning her son, for he is sick. Tell her such and such; for it will be, when she comes in, that she will pretend to be another woman.” 2Ki 4:272Ki 6:8-12Amo 3:7Pro 21:30Psa 139:1-4Act 10:19-20
So when Ahijah heard the sound of her feet as she came in at the door, he said, “Come in, Jeroboam’s wife! Why do you pretend to be another? For I am sent to you with heavy news. 1Ki 13:20-221Ki 14:10-111Ki 14:21Ki 14:51Ki 20:421Ki 21:18-241Ki 22:81Sa 15:16 Go, tell Jeroboam, ‘The LORD, the God of Israel, says: “Because I exalted you from among the people, and made you prince over my people Israel, 1Ki 16:22Sa 12:7-81Ki 12:241Sa 15:161Sa 2:27-30 and tore the kingdom away from David’s house, and gave it to you; and yet you have not been as my servant David, who kept my commandments, and who followed me with all his heart, to do that only which was right in my eyes, 1Ki 15:51Ki 11:33-382Ch 28:1Act 13:22Act 13:361Ki 11:30-311Ki 3:142Ch 17:3 but have done evil above all who were before you, and have gone and made for yourself other gods, molten images, to provoke me to anger, and have cast me behind your back, Ezk 23:35Neh 9:26Psa 50:171Ki 12:282Ch 11:15Exo 34:171Co 10:22Ezk 8:17 therefore, behold, I will bring evil on the house of Jeroboam, and will cut off from Jeroboam everyone who urinates on a wall, 1 he who is shut up and he who is left at large in Israel, and will utterly sweep away the house of Jeroboam, as a man sweeps away dung until it is all gone. 1Ki 21:212Ki 14:26Deu 32:362Ki 9:8-91Ki 15:25-301Ki 16:111Sa 2:301Sa 25:22 The dogs will eat whoever belongs to Jeroboam who dies in the city; and the birds of the sky will eat whoever dies in the field, for the LORD has spoken it.”’ 1Ki 16:41Ki 21:23-24Jer 15:3Rev 19:17-181Ki 21:19Ezk 39:17-19Isa 66:24 Arise therefore, and go to your house. When your feet enter into the city, the child will die. 1Ki 14:16-171Ki 14:32Ki 1:162Ki 1:6Jhn 4:50-52 All Israel will mourn for him and bury him; for he only of Jeroboam will come to the grave, because in him there is found some good thing toward the LORD, the God of Israel, in the house of Jeroboam. 2Ch 19:32Ch 12:122Pe 2:8-9Ezk 18:14-32Jer 22:10Jer 22:18Job 19:28Num 20:29 Moreover the LORD will raise up a king for himself over Israel who will cut off the house of Jeroboam. This is the day! What? Even now. 1Ki 15:27-292Pe 2:3Ecc 8:11Ezk 12:22-28Ezk 7:2-7Jas 5:9 For the LORD will strike Israel, as a reed is shaken in the water; and he will root up Israel out of this good land which he gave to their fathers, and will scatter them beyond the River, 2 because they have made their Asherah poles, provoking the LORD to anger. Jos 23:15-16Psa 52:52Ki 15:29Deu 12:3-4Exo 34:13-14Pro 2:221Ki 14:23-241Ki 14:9 He will give Israel up because of the sins of Jeroboam, which he has sinned, and with which he has made Israel to sin.” 1Ki 13:341Ki 15:301Ki 15:341Ki 16:21Ki 12:30Exo 32:21Exo 32:35Hos 5:11-12
Jeroboam’s wife arose and departed, and came to Tirzah. As she came to the threshold of the house, the child died. 1Ki 15:331Ki 15:211Ki 16:151Ki 16:23Sng 6:41Ki 14:12-131Ki 16:6-91Sa 2:20-34 All Israel buried him and mourned for him, according to the LORD’s word, which he spoke by his servant Ahijah the prophet. 1Ki 14:13

In the fifth year of King Rehoboam, Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem; 1Ki 11:402Ch 12:2-42Ch 12:9 and he took away the treasures of the LORD’s house and the treasures of the king’s house.
