[Ke ke ]lea kia Lehopoami ko e foha ʻo Solomone ko e tuʻi ʻo Siuta, pea ki ʻIsileli kotoa pē ʻi Siuta mo Penisimani, ʻo pehē,

ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova, “ʻOua te mou ʻalu hake, pe tau ki homou kāinga: mou foki atu taki taha ʻae tangata ki hono fale: he ko e meʻa ni kuo fai ia ʻiate au.” Pea naʻa nau fai talangofua ki he folofola ʻa Sihova, pea naʻa [nau ]foki ʻo ʻikai ʻalu ke tauʻi ʻa Selopoami.
5 Rehobowamu amakhala mu Yerusalemu ndipo anamanga mizinda ya chitetezo iyi mu Yuda:
Pea naʻe nofo ʻa Lehopoami ʻi Selūsalema, pea naʻe langa ʻe ia ʻae ngaahi kolotau ʻi Siuta.

14 Alevi anasiya malo awo owetera ziweto ndi katundu wawo, ndi kubwera ku Yuda ndi ku Yerusalemu chifukwa Yeroboamu ndi ana ake anawakana kukhala ansembe a Yehova.
Ka naʻe siʻaki ʻe he kau Livai honau ngaahi ʻapi mo honau ngaahi tofiʻa, pea haʻu ki Siuta mo Selūsalema: he naʻe liʻaki ʻakinautolu ʻe Selopoami mo hono ngaahi foha ke ʻoua naʻa nau fai ʻae ngāue ʻae taulaʻeiki kia Sihova.
15 Ndipo iye anasankha ansembe akeake a pa malo opatulika ndi a mafano a mbuzi ndi mwana wangʼombe amene anapanga.

16 Anthu ochokera fuko lililonse la Israeli amene anatsimikiza mitima yawo kufunafuna Yehova Mulungu wa Israeli, ankapitabe ku Yerusalemu kukapereka nsembe kwa Yehova, Mulungu wa makolo awo.

17 Iwo analimbikitsa ufumu wa Yuda, ndipo anathandiza Rehobowamu mwana wa Solomoni kwa zaka zitatu. Pa nthawi imeneyi iye amatsatira zochita za Davide ndi Solomoni.
Ko ia naʻa nau fakamālohi ʻae puleʻanga ʻo Siuta, pea naʻe fakamālohiʻi ʻa Lehopoami ko e foha ʻo Solomone, ʻi he taʻu ʻe tolu: he naʻa nau ʻalu ʻi he taʻu ʻe tolu ʻi he hala ʻo Tevita mo Solomone.
18 Rehobowamu anakwatira Mahalati, amene abambo ake anali Yerimoti, mwana wa Davide, ndipo amayi ake anali Abihaili, mwana wa Eliabu, mwana wa Yese.
Pea naʻe ʻomi ʻe Lehopoami ʻa Mehalate ko e ʻofefine ʻo Selimoti ko e foha ʻo Tevita kena mali, mo ʻApieli ko e ʻofefine ʻo ʻIliapi, ko e foha ʻo Sese:
19 Mkaziyo anamubereka ana aamuna awa: Yeusi, Semariya ndi Zahamu.
ʻAia naʻa na fānau kiate ia ʻae fānau: ko Siusi, mo Samalia, mo Seami.
20 Kenaka anakwatira Maaka, mwana wamkazi wa Abisalomu, amene anamubereka Abiya, Atai, Ziza ndi Selomiti.
Pea hoko mo ia naʻa ne ʻomi ʻa Meaka ko e ʻofefine ʻo ʻApisalomi: ʻaia naʻa ne fānau kiate ia ʻa ʻApisa, mo ʻAtai, mo Sisa, mo Silomiti.
21 Rehobowamu ankamukonda Maaka mwana wa Abisalomu kuposa aliyense mwa akazi ake ndi azikazi. Iye anali ndi akazi 18, azikazi 60, ana aamuna 28 ndi ana aakazi 60.
Pea naʻe ʻofa ʻa Lehopoami kia Meaka ko e ʻofefine ʻo ʻApisalomi ʻo lahi hake ʻi hono ngaahi uaifi kotoa pē mo ʻene sinifu: (he naʻa ne maʻu ʻae uaifi ʻe toko hongofulu ma toko valu mo e sinifu ʻe toko onongofulu: pea naʻe fānau kiate ia ʻae foha ʻe toko uofulu ma toko valu, mo e ʻofefine ʻe toko onongofulu.)
22 Rehobowamu anasankha Abiya mwana wa Maaka kuti akhale mtsogoleri pa abale ake, ndi cholinga choti adzakhale mfumu.
Pea ngaohi ʻe Lehopoami ʻa ʻApisa ko e tama ʻa Meaka ke tuʻukimuʻa, pea ke pule ia ki hono ngaahi kāinga: he naʻe tokanga ia ke fakanofo ia ke tuʻi.
23 Iye anachita mwanzeru, pomwaza ena mwa ana ake ku madera onse a Yuda ndi Benjamini, ndi ku mizinda yonse yotetezedwa. Iye anawapatsa zinthu zambiri ndiponso anawafunira akazi ambiri.
