And the young men that were grown up with him spake unto him, saying, Thus shalt thou speak unto this people that spake unto thee, saying, Thy father made our yoke heavy, but make thou it lighter unto us; thus shalt thou say unto them, My little finger shall be thicker than my father’s loins.
Los jóvenes que habían crecido con él le respondieron: 'Esto es lo que debes decirle al pueblo que te pidió que aliviares su carga más que tu padre: Diles: Mi dedo meñique es más grueso que la cintura de mi padre.'
Los consejeros jóvenes le aconsejaron a Roboam que respondiera con arrogancia al pueblo, amenazando con ser aún más severo que su padre Salomón.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the historical context of ancient Israel, after King Solomon's death, his son Rehoboam faced a delegation from the people who complained about the heavy taxes and forced labor imposed during Solomon's rule, seeking relief from these burdens. Rehoboam consulted two groups for advice: the elder advisors who suggested a conciliatory approach, and the young men he had grown up with, who urged him to respond with even greater harshness to assert his authority. This incident highlights the tensions in the divided kingdom era, leading to the eventual split of Israel.
