3.	'Speak to Rehab'am son of Shelomoh, sovereign of Yehudah, and to all Yisra'el in Yehudah and Binyamin, saying,
4.	'Thus said YHWH, 'Do not go up or fight against your brothers! Let every man return to his house, for this matter is from Me.''' So they obeyed the words of YHWH, and turned back from going against Yarob'am.

14.	For the Lewites left their open lands and their possessions and came to Yehudah and Yerushalayim, for Yarob'am and his sons had rejected them from serving as priests unto YHWH,
