1 Kings 12:13-14

Context
12:13 The king responded to the people harshly. He rejected the advice of the older men 12:14 and followed 1  the advice of the younger ones. He said, “My father imposed heavy demands on you; I will make them even heavier. 2  My father punished you with ordinary whips; I will punish you with whips that really sting your flesh.” 3 

1 tn Heb “and spoke to them according to.”

2 tn Heb “My father made your yoke heavy, but I will add to your yoke.”

3 tn Heb “My father punished you with whips, but I will punish you with scorpions.” See the note on the same phrase in v. 11.
