## 1 Kings 14:9 in Context (Verses 6–12 KJV)
 
 [6 ](/kjv/1-kings/14/6) And it was *so*, when Ahijah heard the sound of her feet, as she came in at the door, that he said, Come in, thou wife of Jeroboam; why feignest thou thyself *to be* another? for I *am* sent to thee *with* heavy *tidings*.*
 
 [7 ](/kjv/1-kings/14/7) Go, tell Jeroboam, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, Forasmuch as I exalted thee from among the people, and made thee prince over my people Israel,
 
 [8 ](/kjv/1-kings/14/8) And rent the kingdom away from the house of David, and gave it thee: and *yet* thou hast not been as my servant David, who kept my commandments, and who followed me with all his heart, to do *that* only *which was* right in mine eyes;
 
 [9 ](/kjv/1-kings/14/9) But hast done evil above all that were before thee: for thou hast gone and made thee other gods, and molten images, to provoke me to anger, and hast cast me behind thy back:
 
 [10 ](/kjv/1-kings/14/10) Therefore, behold, I will bring evil upon the house of Jeroboam, and will cut off from Jeroboam him that pisseth against the wall, *and* him that is shut up and left in Israel, and will take away the remnant of the house of Jeroboam, as a man taketh away dung, till it be all gone.
 
 [11 ](/kjv/1-kings/14/11) Him that dieth of Jeroboam in the city shall the dogs eat; and him that dieth in the field shall the fowls of the air eat: for the LORD hath spoken *it*.
 
 [12 ](/kjv/1-kings/14/12) Arise thou therefore, get thee to thine own house: *and* when thy feet enter into the city, the child shall die.
 
[1 Kings 13](/kjv/1-kings/13) [1 Kings 15](/kjv/1-kings/15)
