2 Hou Olelesu 11
1 Lihouboua: me da Yelusaleme moilai bai bagadega doaga: lalu, e da baligili noga: i dadi gagui dunu 180,000 agoane, amo Yuda amola Bediamini fi ilima gilisi. E da gegene, bu ga (north) Isala: ili fi ili bu ouligimusa: dawa: i.
And Rehoboam came to Jerusalem, and got together the men of Judah and Benjamin, a hundred and eighty thousand of his best fighting-men, to make war against Israel and get the kingdom back for Rehoboam.
2 Be Gode da Ea Sia: Alofesu dunu (balofede) Siema: ia ema amane sia: i,
But the word of the Lord came to Shemaiah, the man of God, saying,
3 “Lihouboua: me amola Yuda amola Bediamini fi dunu huluane ilima amane sia: sima,
Say to Rehoboam, the son of Solomon, king of Judah, and to all Israel in Judah and Benjamin,
4 ‘Dilia fidafa Isala: ili dunu ili mae doagala: ma! Dilia huluane diasuga masa! Hou da wali doaga: i amo da Na hanaiga doaga: i.” Ilia huluane da Hina Gode Ea hamoma: ne sia: i nabi dagoi, amola ilia diasuga buhagi.
The Lord has said, You are not to go to war against your brothers: let every man go back to his house, for this thing is my purpose. So they gave ear to the words of the Lord and were turned back from fighting against Jeroboam.
5 Lihouboua: me da Yelusaleme ganodini esalu. Ea sia: beba: le, Yuda dunu da moilai bai bagade hagudu dedei, amo gagili sali: - Bedeleheme, Ida: me, Degoua, Bedese, Siougou, Adala: me, Ga: de, Malisia, Sife, A:doula: me, La: igisi, Asoga, Soula, A:idialone amola Hibalone.
Now Rehoboam kept in Jerusalem, building walled towns in Judah.
He was the builder of Beth-lehem and Etam and Tekoa
And Beth-zur and Soco and Adullam
And Gath and Mareshah and Ziph
And Adoraim and Lachish and Azekah
And Zorah and Aijalon and Hebron, walled towns in Judah and Benjamin.
11 E da amo huluane gasawane gagili sali, amola afae afae ouligima: ne, ouligisu dunu ilegei. Afae afae amo ganodini, e da ha: i manu, olife susuligi amola waini hano lidili legei.
And he made the walled towns strong, and he put captains in them and stores of food, oil, and wine.
12 Amola ea da da: igene ga: su amola goge agei, amo gagili sali moilai bai bagade ganodini lidili legei. E da Yuda fi amola Bediamini fi gasawane ouligima: ne agoane hamosu.
And in every town he put stores of body-covers and spears, and made them very strong. And Judah and Benjamin were his.
13 Gobele salasu dunu amola Lifai fi dunu, ilia da Isala: ili soge fisili, ga (south) Yuda sogega misi.
And the priests and Levites who were in all Israel came together to him from every part of their country.
14 Lifai fi dunu da ilia ohe fi ilia ha: i nasu soge amola eno soge fisili, Yuda sogega amola Yelusaleme moilai bai bagadega misi. Bai hina bagade Yelouboua: me amola e bagia dunu da ilia Hina Godema gobele salasu hawa: hamomu logo ga: i dagoi.
For the Levites gave up their living-places and their property, and came to Judah and Jerusalem; for Jeroboam and his sons had sent them away, not letting them be priests to the Lord;
15 Yelouboua: me da hi hanaiga, gobele salasu dunu amo da ogogosu ‘gode’ amola wadela: i a: silibu amola ea loboga hamoi bulamagau mano gawali agoai, ilima nodone sia: ne gadosu hou ouligima: ne, ili ilegei.
And he himself made priests for the high places, and for the images of he-goats and oxen which he had made.
16 Isala: ili fi huluane amoga, nowa da Isala: ili Hina Godema moloiwane fa: no bobogemusa: dawa: i, ilia da Isala: ili soge fisili, Lifai fi dunuma fa: no bobogele, Yelusalemega asi. Bai ilia da ilia aowalalia Hina Godema gobele salasu hou hamomusa: hanai galu.
And after them, from all the tribes of Israel, all those whose hearts were fixed and true to the Lord, the God of Israel, came to Jerusalem to make offerings to the Lord, the God of their fathers.
17 Amo dunu da Yuda fima gilisibiba: le, Yuda da gasa bagade ba: i. Ode udianaga, ilia da Soloumane egefe Lihouboua: me fuligala: i. Amola ilia da hina bagade Da: ibidi amola hina bagade Soloumane ela esalebe galu, amo defele, ilia da hahawane esalu.
So they went on increasing the power of the kingdom of Judah, and made Rehoboam, the son of Solomon, strong for three years; and for three years they went in the ways of David and Solomon.
18 Lihouboua: me da Ma: ihala: de lai. Ma: ihala: de ea ada da Yelimode (Da: ibidi egefe). Ea ame da A: biha: ile (Ilaia: be idiwi amola Yesi ea aiya: ).
And Rehoboam took as his wife Mahalath, the daughter of Jerimoth, the son of David and of Abihail, the daughter of Eliab, the son of Jesse;
19 Lihouboua: me amola Ma: ihala: de elea dunu mano da Yeuse, Siemalaia amola Sa: iha: me.
And she had sons by him, Jeush, Shemariah, and Zaham.
20 Fa: no, Lihouboua: me da Ma: iaga (A: basalome idiwi) amo lai. Eleagefelali da Abaidia, A:da: i, Sisa amola Siloumode.
And after her he took Maacah, the daughter of Absalom; and she had Abijah and Attai and Ziza and Shelomith by him.
21 Lihouboua: me da udadafa 18 agoane lai amola gidisedagi uda 60 agoane lai. Egefelali idi da 28 agoane, amola idiwilali idi da 60 agoane. Hi dogolegeidafa uda da Ma: iaga.
Maacah, the daughter of Absalom, was dearer to Rehoboam than all his wives and his servant-wives: (for he had eighteen wives and sixty servant-wives, and was the father of twenty-eight sons and sixty daughters.)
22 Ma: iaga amola egefe Abaidia da Lihouboua: me ea dogolegeidafa. Amaiba: le, Lihouboua: me da Abaidia amo e bagia hina bagade hamoma: ne ilegei.
Rehoboam made Abijah, the son of Maacah, chief and ruler among his brothers, for it was his purpose to make him king.
23 Lihouboua: me da dawa: iwane hamonanusu. E da egefelali ilima hawa: hamosu ilegei. Ea sia: beba: le, ilia da Yuda amola Bediamini soge amola gagili sali moilai bai bagade, amo ganodini ouligisu hawa: hamosu. E da liligi bagade ilima i, amola ilia lama: ne, uda bagohame ilima i.
And in his wisdom he had his sons stationed in every walled town through all the lands of Judah and Benjamin; and he gave them a great store of food, and took wives for them.
