Kings III 12:2 In-Context

1 And king Roboam goes to Sikima; for all Israel were coming to Sikima to make him king.
3 And the people spoke to king Roboam, saying, Thy father made our yoke heavy;
4 but do thou now lighten somewhat of the hard service of thy father, and of his heavy yoke which he put upon us, and we will serve thee.
5 And he said to them, Depart for three days, and return to me. And they departed.
