For whereas my father put a heavy yoke upon you, I will put more to your yoke: my father chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.

Verse 11 is found in chapter 10 of 2 Chronicles. Rehoboam first consults the elders who had served Solomon, who advise him to respond to the people with service and favorable words. He then consults the young men who had grown up with him, who recommend increasing the burden. The contrast presents two models of authority: leadership through service or the assertion of power through harshness.
