Sirach 47:23
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
Rehoboam and Jeroboam
23 Solomon rested with his ancestors
and left behind him one of his sons
broad in[a] folly and lacking in sense,
Rehoboam, whose policy drove the people to revolt.
Then Jeroboam son of Nebat led Israel into sin
and started Ephraim on its sinful ways.(A)
