KJV - 1 Kings 12:4
Thy father made our yoke grievous: now therefore make thou the grievous service of thy father, and his heavy yoke which he put upon us, lighter, and we will serve thee.
Your father created a difficult burden for us. Now, make your father's hard work and heavy load that he gave us easier, and we will work for you.
