Jeroboam built Shechem in the hill country of Ephraim and lived there. From there he went out and built Penuel.
He went from there to Penuel and asked the same thing from them. The men of Penuel answered just as the men of Succoth had answered. He also told the men of Penuel, "When I return in peace, I will tear down this tower!"
