2 Khokhuen 10
1 Israel pum loh Rehoboam te manghai sak ham Shekhem la a caeh uh dongah amah khaw Shekhem la cet.
Then Rehoboam went to Shechem: for to Sheche came all Israel to make him king.
2 Te tla a om te Nebat capa Jeroboam loh a yaak. Te vaengah anih te Solomon manghai mikhmuh lamloh Egypt la yong dae Jeroboam te Egypt lamloh mael.
And when Ieroboam the sonne of Nebat heard it, (which was in Egypt, whither he had fled from the presence of Salomon the King) he returned out of Egypt.
3 Te dongah amah te a tah uh tih a khue uh. Te phoeiah Jeroboam neh Israel pum te cet uh tih Rehoboam te a voek uh.
And they sent and called him: so came Ieroboam and all Israel, and communed with Rehoboam, saying,
4 Te vaengah, “Na pa loh kaimih kah hnamkun he khak a siing coeng dae na pa mangkhak kah thothuengnah neh a hnamkun a rhih kaimih soah a tloeng te hlawt mai lamtah nang taengah ka tho ka tat bitni,” a ti nauh.
Thy father made our yoke grieuous: nowe therefore make thou the grieuous seruitude of thy father, and his sore yoke, that he put vpon vs, lighter, and we will serue thee.
5 Te vaengah amih te, “Hnin thum a poeng phoeiah, kai taengla ha mael uh,” a ti nah tih pilnam te cet.
And he sayde to them, Depart yet three dayes, then come againe vnto me. And the people departed.
6 Te vaengah manghai Rehoboam loh a napa Solomon amah a hingnah a om vaengah a mikhmuh kah aka pai patong rhoek te a dawt tih, “He pilnam taengah ol mael ham te nangmih loh balae nan uen eh?,” a ti nah.
And King Rehoboam tooke counsel with the olde men that had stande before Salomon his father, while hee yet liued, saying, What counsell giue ye that I may answere this people?
7 Te vaengah anih te a voek uh tih, “Pilnam taengah he a then la na om tih amih taengah na moei a then atah amih te ol then thui pah. Namah tue khuiah tah na taengah sal la om uh bitni,” a ti nauh.
And they spake vnto him, saying, If thou be kinde to this people, and please them, and speake louing words to them, they will be thy seruants for euer.
8 Tedae anih taengah a paek patong rhoek kah cilsuep te a hnoo tih camoe rhoek te a dawt. Te rhoek tah amah neh pantai uh tih a mikhmuh ah pai uh.
But hee left the counsel of the ancient men that they had giuen him, and tooke counsell of the yong men that were brought vp with him, and waited on him.
9 Te phoeiah amih te, “Pilnam he ol ka mael ham te nangmih loh metlam na poek uh. Amih loh kai taengah a thui uh tih, 'Na pa loh kaimih soah a tloeng hnamkun te hlawt laeh,’ a ti uh,” a ti nah.
And he sayd vnto them, What counsel giue ye, that we may answere this people, which haue spoken to mee, saying, Make the yoke which thy father did put vpon vs, lighter?
10 Te dongah anih te amah neh aka pantai camoe rhoek loh a voek tih, “Pilnam te he he thui pah, amih a nang taengah aka cal uh tih, 'Na pa loh kaimih kah hnamkun he a siing dae namah loh kaimih dong lamkah he hlawt laeh,’ aka ti uh. Amih te, 'Kai kah kutca he a pa kah cinghen lakah putsut pueng.
And the yong men that were brought vp with him, spake vnto him, saying, Thus shalt thou answere the people that spake to thee, saying, Thy father made our yoke heauie, but make thou it lighter for vs: thus shalt thou say vnto them, My least part shalbe bigger then my fathers loines.
11 Te dongah a pa loh nangmih soah hnamkun a rhih han tloeng coeng. Tedae kai loh nangmih kah hnamkun te kang khoep ni. A pa loh nangmih te rhuihet neh n'toel dae kai tah saelkhui ta-ai neh kan toel ni,'ti nah,” a ti uh.
Now whereas my father did burden you with a grieuous yoke, I will yet increase your yoke: my father hath chastised you with roddes, but I will correct you with scourges.
12 Te dongah manghai loh, “A hnin thum dongah kai taengla ha mael uh,” a ti nah tih a thui pah bangla a hnin thum dongah tah Jeroboam neh pilnam boeih te Rehoboam taengla mael tangloeng.
Then Ieroboam and all the people came to Rehoboam the third day, as the King had appointed saying, Come againe to me the third day.
13 Tedae amih te manghai loh kalh a voek tih manghai Rehoboam loh patong rhoek kah cilsuep te a hnawt.
And the King answered them sharply: and King Rehoboam left the counsel of the ancient men,
14 Te vaengah amih te camoe rhoek kah cilsuep bangla a voek tih, “Nangmih kah hnamkun te kan siing vetih kamah loh te te kang koei ni. A pa loh nangmih te rhuihet neh n'toel dae kai tah saelkhui ta-ai neh kan toel ni,” a ti nah.
And spake to them after ye counsell of the yong men, saying, My father made your yoke grieuous, but I wil incease it: my father chastised you with rods, but I will correct you with scourges.
15 Manghai loh pilnam kah ol a hnatun na pawt khaw amah BOEIPA kah ol pai sak hamla Pathen taeng lamkah nuencennah la a om dongah ni. Nebat capa Jeroboam ham te Shiloh Ahijah kut ah a thui coeng.
So the king hearkened not vnto the people: for it was the ordinance of God that the Lord might performe his saying, which hee had spoken by Ahiiah the Shilonite to Ieroboam the sonne of Nebat.
16 Amih ol te manghai loh a hnatun pawt khaw Israel pum loh a ming. Te dongah pilnam loh manghai te a mael thil tih, “David khuiah khoyo te kaimih ham ba lam nim? Israel nang dap kah hlang te Jesse koca khuiah a rho a om pai moenih. David aw namah kah imkhui so laeh,” a ti uh. Te phoeiah Israel pum te amah dap la cet.
So when all Isarael sawe that the King would not heare them, the people answered the King, saying, What portion haue we in Dauid? for we haue none inheritance in the sonue of Ishai. O Israel, euery man to your tents: now see to thine owne house, Dauid. So all Israel departed to their tents.
17 Tedae Israel ca rhoek tah Judah khopuei rhoek ah kho a sak uh tih amih soah Rehoboam manghai.
Howbeit Rehoboam reigned ouer the children of Israel, that dwelt in the cities of Iudah.
18 Te vaengah manghai Rehoboam loh Hadoram te saldong boei la a tueih hatah anih te Israel ca rhoek loh lungto neh a dae uh tih duek. Tedae manghai Rehoboam te leng dongla luei hatlat tih Jerusalem la rhaelrham.
Then King Rehoboam sent Hadoram that was ouer the tribute, and the children of Israel stoned him with stones, that he died: then King Rehoboam made speede to get him vp to his charet, to flee to Ierusalem.
19 Te tlam ni tahae khohnin hil Israel loh David imkhui taengah boe a koek uh.
And Israel rebelled against the house of Dauid vnto this day.
