  4. 16When all Israel saw that the king didn’t listen to them, the people answered the king, saying, “What portion do we have in David? We don’t have an inheritance in the son of Jesse! Every man to your tents, Israel! Now see to your own house, David.” So all Israel departed to their tents.
  5. 17But as for the children of Israel who lived in the cities of Judah, Rehoboam reigned over them.
