Thus saith the LORD, Ye shall not go up, nor fight against your brethren the children of Israel: return every man to his house; for this thing is from me. They hearkened therefore to the word of the LORD, and returned to depart, according to the word of the LORD.

Verse 24 is found in chapter 12 of 1 Kings. The ten tribes reject the house of David and proclaim Jeroboam king over Israel. Rehoboam retains Judah and Benjamin, while an attempt to use military force to reunify the kingdom fails. The prophet Shemaiah orders the war to stop because the division comes from God. The separation of the kingdom becomes an irreversible political reality within the narrative of Kings.

Así ha dicho Jehová: No vayáis, ni peleéis contra vuestros hermanos los hijos de Israel; volveos cada uno a su casa; porque este negocio yo lo he hecho. Y ellos oyeron la palabra de Dios, y volviéronse, y fuéronse, conforme a la palabra de Jehová.
