1 Ahinlah Rehoboam chun dettah’a lengam atundoh’a chule thanei tah ahung hijou phat chun amale mipite jouse chun Pakai dan thu chu anungsun tauvin ahi.
And it came to pass, when Rehobo'am had established the kingdom, and when he had become strong, that he forsook the law of the Lord, and all Israel with him.
2 Pakai adinga kitahna aneitahlou jeh uchun Rehoboam Leng chan kal kum nga lhin kum chun, Egypt lengpa Shishak chun Jerusalem ahin bullutan ahi.
And it came to pass in the fifth year of king Rehobo'am, that Shishak the king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, —because they had acted faithlessly against the Lord, —
3 Sakol kangtalai sangkhat le jani toh sakol sepai sang somgup toh chule Libya mite, sukmite chule Ethiopia mite jaonan keng sepai simkon lou chun ahung konnun ahi.
With twelve hundred chariots and sixty thousand horsemen: and innumerable were the people that came with him out of Egypt—the Lubim, the Sukkiyim, and the Ethiopians.
4 Shishak chun kulpi kigen Judah khopi ho chu alonkhum in, chuin Jerusalem lam changei chun amano kitnun aga bullu uvin ahi.
And he captured the fortified cities which pertained to Judah, and he came as far as Jerusalem.
5 Chuin Shemaiah themgaopa chu Rehoboam le Judah te milen milal ho Shishak kichat jeh’a kikhom ho koma chun ahungin, Pakai in hitihin aseije, “Nanghon keima neinung sun tah jeh uva chu, keiman jong tua hi nangho hi Shishak koma kadalhah nahitaove,” ati.
And Shem'ayah the prophet came to Rehobo'am, and the princes of Judah, that were gathered together to Jerusalem because of Shishak, and said unto them, Thus hath said the Lord, Ye have indeed forsaken me, and therefore have I also relinquished you into the hand of Shishak.
6 Chuin Israel milen hole lengpa chu ahung kineo sah un, “Pakai in ichunguva abol hiche hi adih e,” atiuvin ahi.
Thereupon the princes of Israel and the king humbled themselves; and they said, The Lord is righteous.
7 Pakaiyin amaho ahung kineosah’u amu phatnin, Shemiah koma thu hiche hi aseije, “Amaho ahung kineosah tah jeh uchun kasuhmang lou diu ahitai, hiti ahijeh chun gangtah’a ahuhdoh diu kahin solpeh diu ahi,” ati.
And when the Lord saw that they had humbled themselves, then came the word of the Lord to Shem'ayah, saying, “They have humbled themselves: I will not destroy them; but I will permit some little to escape from them; and my wrath shall not be poured out over Jerusalem by the hand of Shishak.”
8 Keiman Shishak mangcha’a Jerusalem chunga kalungsatna kabuh lhah louhel ding ahitai.
However they shall be servants unto him, and they shall know my service, and the service of the kingdoms of the [various] countries.
9 Egypt lengpa Shishak chun Jerusalem abulua chu Pakai Houin thil hojouse le leng inpi a thilho chu, ana kipoh mang ahitai. Aman Solomon in sana’a asem kidalna pho jaona athil ho jouse chu ana kilah doh gam ahitai.
And so came up Shishak the king of Egypt against Jerusalem, and he took away the treasures of the house of the Lord, and the treasures of the king's house: every thing did he take away; and he took away the shields of gold which Solomon had made.
10 Rehoboam lengpa chun Leng inpi lutna kotngah ho, sepai lamkai ho chu sana’a kisem kidalna pho khella sum enga pho, asem dingun anganse tan ahi.
And king Rehobo'am made in their stead shields of copper, and committed them for keeping into the hand of the chiefs of the runners, who kept guard at the door of the king's house.
11 Pakai, Houin a lengpa ache phat le ama ngah’a pang ho chun kidalna pho achoi jiuva kilhon khom jiova, chule amaho umna inchanna chu hung kile lhon kitji ahiuve.
And it happened whenever the king went into the house of the Lord, that the runners came and bore them, and carried them back into the apartment of the runners.
12 Rehoboam amachama ahung kineosah tahjeh chun Pakai lunghanna chu ama-akonin akihei mang tan, hijeh chun ama chu akisumang hel tapoi. Atahbeh’a seiding chun Judah gamsunga thilpha khat ahung umdohtan ahi.
And when he had humbled himself, the wrath of the Lord turned from him, so that he destroyed him not to make an end [of him]: and also in Judah were some good things [found].
13 Leng Rehoboam chu ama le ama Jeruesalem a akitung det kitnin, chuin aleng hina abanjom kittan ahi. Lenga ahung pan chun ama tahsa kum chu kum somli le khat ana hin, Pakai in amin loupi koina dinga Israel phung jouse lah’a ana lhentum Jerusalem khopia achun kum somle sagi vai ana homin ahi. Anu chu Amon mi Naamah kitinu chu ahi.
And king Rehobo'am strengthened himself in Jerusalem, and reigned; for Rehobo'am was one and forty years old when he became king, and seventeen years did he reign in Jerusalem, the city which the Lord had chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, to put his name there. And his mother's name was Na'amah the 'Ammonitess.
14 Ahinlah alungthim pumpia Pakai ahol lou jeh chun Rehoboam chu leng phalou tah khat ana hin ahi.
And he did the evil; because he directed not his heart to seek the Lord.
15 Rehoboam Lengvai poh tilla patna achaina chan geija thilsoh adangho chu Themgao Shemiah lekhabu le mitva neipa Iddo lekhabua chun akisun lut soh keijin ahi.
And the acts of Rehobo'am, the first and the last, behold, they are written in the history of Shem'ayah the prophet, and of 'Iddo, the seer concerning the genealogies. And the wars of Rehobo'am and Jerobo'am [lasted] all the days.
16 Rehoboam athiphat chun David khopia chun akivui tai, chuin achapa Abijah chu ama bantah in Leng ahung hitan ahi.
And Rehobo'am slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David: and Abiyah his son became king in his stead.
