1 Kings

1 Kings 14:10–11

10Because of all this, behold, I am bringing disaster on the house of Jeroboam:

I will cut off from Jeroboam every male,a

both slave and free,

in Israel;

I will burn up the house of Jeroboam

as one burns up dung until it is gone!

11Anyone belonging to Jeroboam who dies in the city

will be eaten by dogs,

and anyone who dies in the field

will be eaten by the birds of the air.’

For the LORD has spoken.
