2 Chronicles 10:4-6

New International Version

⁴ “Your father put a heavy yoke on us,^(A) but now lighten the harsh labor and the heavy yoke he put on us, and we will serve you.”

⁵ Rehoboam answered, “Come back to me in three days.” So the people went away.

⁶ Then King Rehoboam consulted the elders^(B) who had served his father Solomon during his lifetime. “How would you advise me to answer these people?” he asked.
