٢ أخبار 10
| وَذَهَبَ رَحُبْعَامُ إِلَى شَكِيمَ، لِأَنَّهُ جَاءَ إِلَى شَكِيمَ كُلُّ إِسْرَائِيلَ لِيُمَلِّكُوهُ. | ١ 1 |
And Rehoboam went to Shechem: for to Shechem were all Israel come to make him king.
| وَلَمَّا سَمِعَ يَرُبْعَامُ بْنُ نَبَاطَ، وَهُوَ فيِ مِصْرَ حَيْثُ هَرَبَ مِنْ وَجْهِ سُلَيْمَانَ ٱلْمَلِكِ، رَجَعَ يَرُبْعَامُ مِنْ مِصْرَ. | ٢ 2 |
And it came to pass, when Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who was in Egypt, where he fled from the presence of Solomon the king, heard it, that Jeroboam returned out of Egypt.
| فَأَرْسَلُوا وَدَعَوْهُ، فَأَتَى يَرُبْعَامُ وَكُلُّ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَكَلَّمُوا رَحُبْعَامَ قَائِلِينَ: | ٣ 3 |
And they sent and called him. So Jeroboam and all Israel came and spoke to Rehoboam, saying,
| «إِنَّ أَبَاكَ قَسَّى نِيرَنَا، فَٱلْآنَ خَفِّفْ مِنْ عُبُودِيَّةِ أَبِيكَ ٱلْقَاسِيَةِ وَمِنْ نِيرِهِ ٱلثَّقِيلِ ٱلَّذِي جَعَلَهُ عَلَيْنَا فَنَخْدِمَكَ». | ٤ 4 |
Your father made our yoke grievous: now therefore ease you somewhat the grievous servitude of your father, and his heavy yoke that he put on us, and we will serve you.
| فَقَالَ لَهُمُ: «ٱرْجِعُوا إِلَيَّ بَعْدَ ثَلَاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ». فَذَهَبَ ٱلشَّعْبُ. | ٥ 5 |
And he said to them, Come again to me after three days. And the people departed.
| فَٱسْتَشَارَ ٱلْمَلِكُ رَحُبْعَامُ ٱلشُّيُوخَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَانُوا يَقِفُونَ أَمَامَ سُلَيْمَانَ أَبِيهِ وَهُوَ حَيٌّ قَائِلًا: «كَيْفَ تُشِيرُونَ أَنْ أَرُدَّ جَوَابًا عَلَى هَذَا ٱلشَّعْبِ؟» | ٦ 6 |
And king Rehoboam took counsel with the old men that had stood before Solomon his father while he yet lived, saying, What counsel give you me to return answer to this people?
| فَكَلَّمُوهُ قَائِلِينَ: «إِنْ كُنْتَ صَالِحًا نَحْوَ هَذَا ٱلشَّعْبِ وَأَرْضَيْتَهُمْ وَكَلَّمْتَهُمْ كَلَامًا حَسَنًا، يَكُونُونَ لَكَ عَبِيدًا كُلَّ ٱلْأَيَّامِ». | ٧ 7 |
And they spoke to him, saying, If you be kind to this people, and please them, and speak good words to them, they will be your servants for ever.
| فَتَرَكَ مَشُورَةَ ٱلشُّيُوخِ ٱلَّتِي أَشَارُوا بِهَا عَلَيْهِ، وَٱسْتَشَارَ ٱلْأَحْدَاثَ ٱلَّذِينَ نَشَأُوا مَعَهُ وَوَقَفُوا أَمَامَهُ، | ٨ 8 |
But he forsook the counsel which the old men gave him, and took counsel with the young men that were brought up with him, that stood before him.
| وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «بِمَاذَا تُشِيرُونَ أَنْتُمْ فَنَرُدَّ جَوَابًا عَلَى هَذَا ٱلشَّعْبِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَلَّمُونِي قَائِلِينَ: خَفِّفْ مِنَ ٱلنِّيرِ ٱلَّذِي جَعَلَهُ عَلَيْنَا أَبُوكَ؟» | ٩ 9 |
And he said to them, What advice give you that we may return answer to this people, which have spoken to me, saying, Ease somewhat the yoke that your father did put on us?
| فَكَلَّمَهُ ٱلْأَحْدَاثُ ٱلَّذِينَ نَشَأُوا مَعَهُ قَائِلِينَ: «هَكَذَا تَقُولُ لِلشَّعْبِ ٱلَّذِينَ كَلَّمُوكَ قَائِلِينَ: إِنَّ أَبَاكَ ثَقَّلَ نِيرَنَا وَأَمَّا أَنْتَ فَخَفِّفْ عَنَّا، هَكَذَا تَقُولُ لَهُمْ: إِنَّ خِنْصَرِي أَغْلَظُ مِنْ مَتْنَيْ أَبِي. | ١٠ 10 |
And the young men that were brought up with him spoke to him, saying, Thus shall you answer the people that spoke to you, saying, Your father made our yoke heavy, but make you it somewhat lighter for us; thus shall you say to them, My little finger shall be thicker than my father’s loins.
| وَٱلْآنَ أَبِي حَمَّلَكُمْ نِيرًا ثَقِيلًا وَأَنَا أَزِيدُ عَلَى نِيرِكُمْ. أَبِي أَدَّبَكُمْ بِٱلسِّيَاطِ وَأَمَّا أَنَا فَبِٱلْعَقَارِبِ». | ١١ 11 |
For whereas my father put a heavy yoke on you, I will put more to your yoke: my father chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.
| فَجَاءَ يَرُبْعَامُ وَجَمِيعُ ٱلشَّعْبِ إِلَى رَحُبْعَامَ فِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلثَّالِثِ كَمَا تَكَلَّمَ ٱلْمَلِكُ قَائِلًا: «ٱرْجِعُوا إِلَيَّ فِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلثَّالِثِ». | ١٢ 12 |
So Jeroboam and all the people came to Rehoboam on the third day, as the king bade, saying, Come again to me on the third day.
| فَأَجَابَهُمُ ٱلْمَلِكُ بِقَسَاوَةٍ، وَتَرَكَ ٱلْمَلِكُ رَحُبْعَامُ مَشُورَةَ ٱلشُّيُوخِ، | ١٣ 13 |
And the king answered them roughly; and king Rehoboam forsook the counsel of the old men,
| وَكَلَّمَهُمْ حَسَبَ مَشُورَةِ ٱلْأَحْدَاثِ قَائِلًا: «أَبِي ثَقَّلَ نِيرَكُمْ وَأَنَا أَزِيدُ عَلَيْهِ. أَبِي أَدَّبَكُمْ بِٱلسِّيَاطِ وَأَمَّا أَنَا فَبِالْعَقَارِبِ». | ١٤ 14 |
And answered them after the advice of the young men, saying, My father made your yoke heavy, but I will add thereto: my father chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.
| وَلَمْ يَسْمَعِ ٱلْمَلِكُ لِلشَّعْبِ، لِأَنَّ ٱلسَّبَبَ كَانَ مِنْ قِبَلِ ٱللهِ، لِكَيْ يُقِيمَ ٱلرَّبُّ كَلَامَهُ ٱلَّذِي تَكَلَّمَ بِهِ عَنْ يَدِ أَخِيَّا ٱلشِّيلُونِيِّ إِلَى يَرُبْعَامَ بْنِ نَبَاطَ. | ١٥ 15 |
So the king listened not to the people: for the cause was of God, that the LORD might perform his word, which he spoke by the hand of Ahijah the Shilonite to Jeroboam the son of Nebat.
| فَلَمَّا رَأَى كُلُّ إِسْرَائِيلَ أَنَّ ٱلْمَلِكَ لَمْ يَسْمَعْ لَهُمْ، جَاوَبَ ٱلشَّعْبُ ٱلْمَلِكَ قَائِلِينَ: «أَيُّ قِسْمٍ لَنَا فِي دَاوُدَ؟ وَلَا نَصِيبَ لَنَا فِي ٱبْنِ يَسَّى! كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ إِلَى خَيْمَتِهِ يَا إِسْرَائِيلُ. ٱلْآنَ ٱنْظُرْ إِلَى بَيْتِكَ يَادَاوُدُ». وَذَهَبَ كُلُّ إِسْرَائِيلَ إِلَى خِيَامِهِمْ. | ١٦ 16 |
And when all Israel saw that the king would not listen to them, the people answered the king, saying, What portion have we in David? and we have none inheritance in the son of Jesse: every man to your tents, O Israel: and now, David, see to your own house. So all Israel went to their tents.
| وَأَمَّا بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلسَّاكِنُونَ فِي مُدُنِ يَهُوذَا فَمَلَكَ عَلَيْهِمْ رَحُبْعَامُ. | ١٧ 17 |
But as for the children of Israel that dwelled in the cities of Judah, Rehoboam reigned over them.
| ثُمَّ أَرْسَلَ ٱلْمَلِكُ رَحُبْعَامُ هَدُورَامَ ٱلَّذِي عَلَى ٱلتَّسْخِيرِ، فَرَجَمَهُ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ بِٱلْحِجَارَةِ فَمَاتَ. فَبَادَرَ ٱلْمَلِكُ رَحُبْعَامُ وَصَعِدَ إِلَى ٱلْمَرْكَبَةِ لِيَهْرُبَ إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ، | ١٨ 18 |
Then king Rehoboam sent Hadoram that was over the tribute; and the children of Israel stoned him with stones, that he died. But king Rehoboam made speed to get him up to his chariot, to flee to Jerusalem.
| فَعَصَى إِسْرَائِيلُ بَيْتَ دَاوُدَ إِلَى هَذَا ٱلْيَوْمِ. | ١٩ 19 |
And Israel rebelled against the house of David to this day.
