1 Kings 12:14

he spoke to them according to the counsel of the young men , saying , My father made your yoke heavy , but I will add to your yoke . My father disciplined you with whips , but I will discipline you with scorpions .

he followed the advice of the young men and said, “My father made your yoke heavy; I will make it even heavier. My father scourged you with whips; I will scourge you with scorpions.”

And spake to them after the counsel of the young men, saying, My father made your yoke heavy, and I will add to your yoke : my father also chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.
