ગુજરાતી1 રાજાઓ ૧૪:૮
મેં દાઉદના કટુંબ પાસેથી રાજ્ય છીનવી લઈને તને આપ્યું. પણ તું મારા સેવક દાઉદ જેવો થયો નહિ. તે મારી આજ્ઞાઓ પાળતો હતો, પૂરા હૃદયથી મારા માર્ગે ચાલતો હતો તથા મારી નજરમાં જે સારું હોય તે જ કરતો હતો.
हिन्दी1 राजाओं १४:८
और दाऊद के घराने से राज्य छीनकर तुझको दिया, परन्तु तू मेरे दास दाऊद के समान न हुआ जो मेरी आज्ञाओं को मानता, और अपने पूर्ण मन से मेरे पीछे-पीछे चलता, और केवल वही करता था जो मेरी दृष्टि में ठीक है।

In context

6So when Ahijah heard the sound of her feet as she came in at the door, he said, “Come in, Jeroboam’s wife! Why do you pretend to be another? For I am sent to you with heavy news.

7Go, tell Jeroboam, ‘The LORD, the God of Israel, says: “Because I exalted you from among the people, and made you prince over my people Israel,

8and tore the kingdom away from David’s house, and gave it to you; and yet you have 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 my eyes,

9but have done evil above all who were before you, and have gone and made for yourself other gods, molten images, to provoke me to anger, and have cast me behind your back,

10therefore, behold, I will bring evil on the house of Jeroboam, and will cut off from Jeroboam everyone who urinates on a wall, he who is shut up and he who is left at large in Israel, and will utterly sweep away the house of Jeroboam, as a man sweeps away dung until it is all gone.
