2 Setouknae 10
1 Isarelnaw abuemlah Shekhem kholah siangpahrang rawi hanelah a cei awh. Rehoboam hai a cei vah.
And Rehoboam went to Shechem. For all Israel came to Shechem to make him king.
2 Solomon siangpahrang koehoi Izip ram lah ka yawng e Nebat capa Jeroboam teh hote kamthang a thai navah Izip ram hoi bout a tho.
And it came to pass, when Jeroboam the son of Nebat heard of it, (for he was in Egypt, from where he had fled from the presence of king Solomon), that Jeroboam returned out of Egypt.
3 Tami a patoun teh ahni hah a kaw awh. Jeroboam hoi Isarelnaw abuemlah a tho awh teh, Rehoboam koevah,
And they sent and called him. And Jeroboam and all Israel came, and they spoke to Rehoboam, saying,
4 Na pa ni hmuen ka ri pueng hai na phu sak awh. Hatdawkvah, na pa ni nget ka tawn lah na tawk sak e hoi hnokari na phu sak e heh bet pâhaw sak haw, telah pawiteh na thaw ka tawk awh han telah atipouh awh.
Thy father made our yoke grievous. Now therefore make thou the grievous service of thy father, and his heavy yoke which he put upon us, lighter, and we will serve thee.
5 Ahni ni hnin thum touh aloum hnukkhu bout tho awh atipouh navah, taminaw ni koung a taki awh.
And he said to them, Come again to me after three days. And the people departed.
6 Siangpahrang Rehoboam ni hete tami lawk bout a pathung hanelah bangtelamaw pouknae na poe awh han telah a na pa a hring nah ateng ouk kaawm e kacuenaw koe pouknae a hei.
And king Rehoboam took counsel with the old men that had stood before Solomon his father while he yet lived, saying, What counsel do ye give me to return an answer to this people?
7 Ahnimanaw ni hete taminaw heh na pahren pawiteh lung na hawi sak pawiteh, lawkkanemcalah na dei pawiteh, na tami lah pou ka o awh han telah atipouh.
And they spoke to him, saying, If thou be kind to this people, and please them, and speak good words to them, then they will be thy servants forever.
8 Hatei, kacuenaw ni pouknae a poe e hah dâw laipalah ateng kaawm e a hui thoundounnaw koe pouknae a hei.
But he forsook the counsel of the old men which they had given him, and took counsel with the young men that grew up with him, who stood before him.
9 Rangpuinaw ni na pa ni hnokari a patue e pâhaw sak leih ati awh dawkvah, ahnimanaw koe bout ka dei pouh hanelah, bangtelamaw pouknae na poe awh han telah a pacei navah,
And he said to them, What counsel do ye give, that we may return an answer to this people who have spoken to me, saying, Make the yoke that thy father put upon us lighter?
10 a hui thoundounnaw ni na pa ni hnokari na phu sak katetnaw koe hettelah dei pouh, kaie kutcarei teh, apa e keng hlak a tha han.
And the young men that grew up with him spoke to him, saying, Thus shall thou say to the people who spoke to thee, saying, Thy father made our yoke heavy, but make thou it lighter to us. Thus shall thou say to them, My little finger is thicker than my father's loins.
11 Apa ni hnokari na phu sak awh toe. Kai ni het hlak hoe ka ri e na phu sak awh han rah. Apa ni nangmanaw ruitaboung hoi na hem awh. Kai niteh, aikam hoi na hem awh han telah tet pouh loe, atipouh awh.
And now whereas my father burdened you with a heavy yoke, I will add to your yoke. My father chastised you with whips, but I with scorpions.
12 Siangpahrang ni apâthum hnin bout tho awh atipouh e patetlah apâthum hnin dawk Jeroboam hoi taminaw pueng teh Rehoboam koe a tho awh.
So Jeroboam and all the people came to Rehoboam the third day, as the king bade, saying, Come to me again the third day.
13 Hatnavah Rehoboam siangpahrang ni kacuenaw ni a poe e pouknae a hnoun teh, a hui thoundounnaw ni a poe e pouknae patetlah,
And the king answered them roughly. And king Rehoboam forsook the counsel of the old men,
14 Apa ni nangmanaw hnokari poung e na phu sak awh toe. Kai ni het hlak hoe na phu sak awh han rah. Apa ni nangmanaw ruitaboung hoi na hem awh. Kai niteh, aikam hoi na hem awh han rah telah puenghoi bout a dei pouh.
and spoke to them after the counsel of the young men, saying, My father made your yoke heavy, but I will add thereto. My father chastised you with whips, but I with scorpions.
15 Siangpahrang ni khocanaw ni a dei e lawk a tarawi ngaihoehnae teh, BAWIPA ni Shiloh tami Ahijah hno lahoi Nebat capa Jeroboam koe a dei pouh e lawk a kuep sak hane a ngai dawk doeh.
So the king did not hearken to the people. For it was brought about by God, that Jehovah might establish his word, which he spoke by Ahijah the Shilonite to Jeroboam the son of Nebat.
16 Isarelnaw abuemlah ni, siangpahrang ni lawk a ngâi hoeh e a hmu awh navah, bangmaw Devit koe coe hane ka tawn awh, Jesi capa koe coe hane râw ka tawn awh hoeh. Oe Isarelnaw, namamae rim koe lah ban awh leih. Oe Devit namae imthung khenhaw! telah atipouh awh. Hottelah Isarelnaw teh amamae rim koe lah lengkaleng a ban awh.
And when all Israel saw that the king did not hearken to them, the people answered the king, saying, What portion have we in David? Neither have we inheritance in the son of Jesse. Every man to your tents, O Israel. Now see to thine own house, David. So all Israel departed to their tents.
17 Hatei, Judah ram lah kaawm e Isarelnaw teh Rehoboam ni a uk awh.
But as for the sons of Israel who dwelt in the cities of Judah, Rehoboam reigned over them.
18 Hahoi, siangpahrang Rehoboam ni thaw katawknaw ka uk e Adoniram teh Isarelnaw koe a patoun. Hatei ahnimanaw ni talung hoi mat a dei awh. Hatdawkvah, siangpahrang Rehoboam teh rangleng dawk karanglah a kâcui teh, Jerusalem lah a yawng.
Then king Rehoboam sent Hadoram, who was over the men subject to task work. And the sons of Israel stoned him to death with stones. And king Rehoboam made speed to get him up to his chariot, to flee to Jerusalem.
19 Hottelah Isarelnaw ni, atu totouh Devit catounnaw a taran awh.
So Israel rebelled against the house of David to this day.
