2 Setouknae 10
1 Isarelnaw abuemlah Shekhem kholah siangpahrang rawi hanelah a cei awh. Rehoboam hai a cei vah.
And Roboam went to Sichem: for thither all Israel were assembled, 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 when Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who was in Egypt, (for he was fled thither from Solomon, ) heard it, forthwith he returned.
3 Tami a patoun teh ahni hah a kaw awh. Jeroboam hoi Isarelnaw abuemlah a tho awh teh, Rehoboam koevah,
And they sent for him, and he came with all Israel, and they spoke to Roboam, 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 oppressed us with a most grievous yoke, do thou govern us with a lighter hand than thy father, who laid upon us a heavy servitude, and ease some thing of the burden, that we may 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 to me again after three days. And when the people were gone,
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.
He took counsel with the ancients, who had stood before his father Solomon, while he yet lived, saying: What counsel give you to me, that I may answer the 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 said to him: If thou please this people, and soothe them with kind words, they will be thy servants for ever.
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 ancients, and began to treat with the young men, that had been brought up with him, and were in his train.
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 seemeth good to you? or what shall I answer this people, who have said to me: Ease the yoke which thy father laid upon us?
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.
But they answered as young men, and brought up with him in pleasures, and said: Thus shalt thou speak to the people, that said to thee: Thy father made our yoke heavy, do thou ease it: thus shalt thou answer them: My little finger is thicker than the loins of my father.
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.
My father laid upon you a heavy yoke, and I will add more weight to it: my father beat you with scourges, but I will beat you 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 Roboam the third day, as he commanded them.
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 roughly, leaving the counsel of the ancients.
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 he spoke according to the advice of the young men: My father laid upon you a heavy yoke, which I will make heavier: my father beat you with scourges, but I will beat you 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.
And he condescended not to the people’s requests: for it was the will of God, that his word might be fulfilled which he had spoken by the hand of Ahias the Silonite to Jeroboam the son of Nabat.
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 all the people upon the king’s speaking roughly, said thus unto him: We have no part in David, nor inheritance in the son of Isai. Return to thy dwellings, O Israel, and do thou, O David, feed thy own house. And Israel went away to their dwellings.
17 Hatei, Judah ram lah kaawm e Isarelnaw teh Rehoboam ni a uk awh.
But Roboam reigned over the children of Israel that dwelt in the cities of Juda.
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.
And king Roboam sent Aduram, who was over the tributes, and the children of Israel stoned him, and he died: and king Roboam made haste to gee up into his chariot, and fled into Jerusalem.
19 Hottelah Isarelnaw ni, atu totouh Devit catounnaw a taran awh.
And Israel revolted from the house of David unto this day.
