Ahishar, in charge of the palace; and Adoniram son of Abda, in charge of forced labor.

He sent 10,000 to Lebanon each month in shifts; one month they were in Lebanon, two months they were at home. Adoniram was in charge of the forced labor.

Adoram was in charge of forced labor; Jehoshaphat son of Ahilud was court historian;

Then King Rehoboam sent Hadoram, who was in charge of the forced labor, but the Israelites stoned him to death. However, King Rehoboam managed to get up into the chariot to flee to Jerusalem.

Then Moses cried out to the LORD, "What should I do with these people? In a little while they will stone me!"

While the whole community threatened to stone them, the glory of the LORD appeared to all the Israelites at the tent of meeting.

But they conspired against him and stoned him at the king's command in the courtyard of the LORD's temple.

Then the captain went with the temple police and brought them in without force, because they were afraid the people might stone them.

Then they screamed at the top of their voices, stopped their ears, and rushed together against him.

They threw him out of the city and began to stone him. And the witnesses laid their robes at the feet of a young man named Saul.

So he said, "If they have marched out in peace, take them alive, and if they have marched out for battle, take them alive."

and each one struck down his opponent. So the Arameans fled and Israel pursued them, but Ben-hadad king of Aram escaped on a horse with the cavalry.

The wicked flee when no one is pursuing [them], but the righteous are as bold as a lion.

When a land is in rebellion, it has many rulers, but with a discerning and knowledgeable person, it endures.

Even the most courageous of the warriors will flee naked on that day-- the LORD's declaration.
