6 King Rehoboam (A)consulted with the elders who had [a]served his father Solomon while he was still alive, saying, “How do you counsel me to answer this people?” 7 Then they spoke to him, saying, “(B)If you will be a servant to this people today, and will serve them and [b]grant them their petition, and speak good words to them, then they will be your servants forever.” 8 But he forsook the counsel of the elders which they had given him, and consulted with the young men who grew up with him [c]and served him.
