Verse 13 is found in chapter 14 of 1 Kings. Ahijah recalls that God raised Jeroboam from a humble position and gave him the kingdom, but Jeroboam did not follow the Lord. The judgment against his house is severe: the dynasty will be eliminated, and the sick son will be the only member of the house to receive an honorable burial. The prophecy explains Jeroboam’s political downfall from a moral and theological perspective.

Und es wird ihn das ganze Israel beklagen, und werden ihn begraben; denn dieser allein von Jerobeam wird zu Grabe kommen, darum daß etwas Gutes an ihm erfunden ist vor dem HERRN, dem Gott Israels, im Hause Jerobeams.
Y todo Israel lo endechará, y le enterrarán; porque sólo él de los de Jeroboam entrará en sepultura; por cuanto se ha hallado en él alguna cosa buena de Jehová Dios de Israel, en la casa de Jeroboam.
Todo Israel lo llorará y lo enterrarán. De la casa de Jeroboam, solo él recibirá sepultura, porque en él se ha encontrado algo bueno hacia Jehová, el Dios de Israel, dentro de la casa de Jeroboam.
Tout Israël le pleurera, et on l'enterrera; car il est le seul de la maison de Jéroboam qui sera mis dans un sépulcre, parce qu'il est le seul de la maison de Jéroboam en qui se soit trouvé quelque chose de bon devant l'Eternel, le Dieu d'Israël.
E tutto Israele farà cordoglio di lui, e lo seppellirà; perciocchè costui solo, d’infra quelli che appartengono a Geroboamo, entrerà nel sepolcro; conciossiachè in lui solo, della casa di Geroboamo, sia stato trovato alcun bene appo il Signore Iddio d’Israele.
E todo o Israel o pranteará, e o sepultará; porque de Jeroboão só este entrará em sepultura, porquanto se achou nele coisa boa para com o SENHOR Deus de Israel em casa de Jeroboão.
