1 Kings 14:17

Ahijah’s Prophecy against Jeroboam

16So He will give Israel over on account of the sins Jeroboam has committed and has caused Israel to commit.”17Then Jeroboam’s wife got up and departed for Tirzah, and as soon as she stepped over the threshold of the house, the boy died.18And they buried him, and all Israel mourned for him, according to the word that the LORD had spoken through His servant Ahijah the prophet.
