1 Raja-raja 12:20

Ketika orang-orang Israel mendengar bahwa Yerobeam sudah kembali dari Mesir, mereka mengundang dia ke suatu pertemuan, dan di situ mereka mengangkat dia menjadi raja Israel. Hanya suku Yehuda yang tetap menganggap keturunan Daud sebagai raja mereka.

And it came to pass, when all Israel heard that Jeroboam was come again, that they sent and called him unto the congregation, and made him king over all Israel: there was none that followed the house of David, but the tribe of Judah only.
