< Første Kongebog 12 >
1 Men Rehabeam begav sig til Sikem, thi derhen var hele Israel stævnet for at hylde ham som Konge.
And he went Rehoboam Shechem for Shechem it had gone all Israel to make king him.
2 Da Jeroboam, Nebats Søn, der endnu opholdt sig i Ægypten, hvorhen han var flygtet for Kong Salomo, fik Nys om, at Salomo var død, vendte han hjem fra Ægypten.
And it was when heard - Jeroboam [the] son of Nebat and he still he [was] in Egypt where he had fled because of the king Solomon and he dwelt Jeroboam in Egypt.
3 Og de sagde til Rehabeam:
And people sent and they summoned him (and he came *Q(K)*) Jeroboam and all [the] assembly of Israel and they spoke to Rehoboam saying.
4 "Din Fader lagde et hårdt Åg på os, men let du nu det hårde Arbejde, din Fader krævede, og det tunge Åg han lagde på os, så vil vi tjene dig!"
Father your he made hard yoke our and you now lighten some of [the] service of father your hard and some of yoke his heavy which he put on us and we will serve you.
5 Han svarede dem: "Gå bort, bi tre Dage og kom så til mig igen!" Så gik Folket.
And he said to them go yet three days and return to me and they went the people.
6 Derpå rådførte Kong Rehabeam sig med de gamle, der havde stået i hans Fader Salomos Tjeneste, dengang han levede, og spurgte dem: "Hvad råder I mig til at svare dette Folk?"
And he consulted the king Rehoboam with the elders who they were standing with [the] presence of Solomon father his when was he alive saying how? [are] you counseling to bring back the people this word.
7 De svarede: "Hvis du i Dag vil være dette Folk til Tjeneste, være dem til Behag, svare dem vel og give dem gode Ord, så vil de blive dine Tjenere for bestandig!"
(And they spoke *Q(K)*) to him saying if this day you will be a servant of the people this and you will serve them and you will answer them and you will speak to them words kind and they will be of you servants all the days.
8 Men han fulgte ikke det Råd, de gamle gav ham; derimod rådførte han sig med de unge, der var vokset op sammen med ham og stod i hans Tjeneste,
And he forsook [the] counsel of the elders which they had counseled him and he consulted with the young men who they had grown up with him who [were] the [ones who] stood before him.
9 og spurgte dem: "Hvad råder I os til at svare dette Folk, som kræver af mig, at jeg skal lette dem det Åg, min Fader lagde på dem?"
And he said to them what? [are] you counseling and we may bring back word the people this which they have spoken to me saying lighten some of the yoke which he put father your on us.
10 De unge, der var vokset op sammen med ham, sagde da til ham: "Således skal du svare dette Folk, som sagde til dig: Din Fader lagde et tungt Åg på os, let du det for os! Således skal du svare dem: Min Lillefinger er tykkere end min Faders Hofter!
And they spoke to him the young men who they had grown up with him saying thus you will say to the people this which they have spoken to you saying father your he made heavy yoke our and you lighten from on us thus you will speak to them little finger my it is thick more than [the] loins of father my.
11 Har derfor min Fader lagt et tungt Åg på eder, vil jeg gøre Åget tungere; har min Fader tugtet eder med Svøber, vil jeg tugte eder med Skorpioner!"
And now father my he loaded on you a yoke heavy and I I will add to yoke your father my he disciplined you with whips and I I will discipline you with scorpions.
12 Da alt Folket Tredjedagen kom til Rehabeam, som Kongen havde sagt,
(And he came *Q(k)*) Jeroboam and all the people to Rehoboam on the day third just as he had spoken the king saying return to me on the day third.
13 gav han dem et hårdt Svar, og uden at tage Hensyn til de gamles Råd
And he answered the king the people hard and he forsook [the] counsel of the elders which they had counseled him.
14 sagde han efter de unges Råd til dem: "Har min Fader lagt et tungt Åg på eder, vil jeg gøre Åget tungere; har min Fader tugtet eder med Svøber, vil jeg tugte eder med Skorpioner!"
And he spoke to them according to [the] counsel of the young men saying father my he made heavy yoke your and I I will add to yoke your father my he disciplined you with whips and I I will discipline you with scorpions.
15 Kongen hørte ikke på Folket, thi HERREN føjede det således for at opfylde det Ord, HERREN havde talet ved Ahija fra Silo til Jeroboam, Nebats Søn.
And not he listened the king to the people for it was a turn from with Yahweh so as to establish word his which he had spoken Yahweh by [the] hand of Ahijah Shilonite to Jeroboam [the] son of Nebat.
16 Men da hele Israel mærkede, at Kongen ikke hørte på dem, gav Folket Kongen det Svar: "Hvad Del har vi i David? Vi har ingen Lod i Isajs Søn! Til dine Telte, Israel! Sørg nu, David, for dit eget Hus!" Derpå vendte Israel tilbage til sine Telte.
And it saw all Israel that not he had listened the king to them and they brought back the people the king word - saying what? [belongs] to us portion in David and not an inheritance in [the] son of Jesse to tents your O Israel now consider own house your O David and it went Israel to tents its.
17 Men over de Israeliter, der boede i Judas Byer, blev Rehabeam Konge.
And [the] people of Israel who were dwelling in [the] cities of Judah and he reigned over them Rehoboam.
18 Nu sendte Kong Rehabeam Adoniram, der havde Opsyn med Hoveriarbejdet, ud til dem, men hele Israel stenede ham til Døde. Da steg Kong Rebabeam i største Hast op på sin Stridsvogn og flygtede til Jerusalem.
And he sent the king Rehoboam Adoram who [was] over the forced labor and they stoned all Israel him stone[s] and he died and the king Rehoboam he proved himself strong to go up in the chariot to flee Jerusalem.
19 Således brød Israel med Davids Hus, og det er Stillingen den Dag i Dag.
And they have rebelled Israel against [the] house of David until the day this.
20 Men da hele Israel hørte, at Jeroboam var kommet tilbage, lod de ham hente til Forsamlingen og hyldede ham som Konge over hele Israel. Der var ingen, som holdt fast ved Davids Hus undtagen Judas Stamme.
And it was when heard all Israel that he had returned Jeroboam and they sent and they called him to the congregation and they made king him over all Israel not anyone was after [the] house of David except [the] tribe of Judah to only it.
21 Da Rehabeam var kommet til Jerusalem, samlede han hele Judas Hus og Benjamins Stamme, 180 000 udsøgte Folk, øvede Krigere, til at føre Krig med Israels Hus og vinde Riget tilbage til Rehabeam, Salomos Søn.

22 Men da kom Guds Ord til den Guds Mand Sjemaja således:
And it came [the] word of God to Shemaiah [the] man of God saying.
23 "Sig til Judas Konge Rehabeam, Salomos Søn, og til hele Judas og Benjamins Hus og det øvrige Folk:

24 Så siger HERREN: I må ikke drage op og kæmpe med eders Brødre Israeliterne; vend hjem hver til sit, thi hvad her er sket, har jeg tilskikket!" Da adlød de HERRENs Ord og vendte tilbage.
Thus he says Yahweh not you must go up and not you must do battle! with countrymen your [the] people of Israel return each to own house his for from with me it has occurred the thing this and they listened to [the] word of Yahweh and they turned back to go according to [the] word of Yahweh.
25 Jeroboam befæstede Sikem i Efraims Bjerge og tog Bolig der; senere drog han derfra og befæstede Penuel.
And he built Jeroboam Shechem in [the] hill country of Ephraim and he dwelt in it and he went out from there and he built Penuel.
26 Men Jeroboam tænkte ved sig selv: "Som det nu går, vil Riget atter tilfalde Davids Hus;
And he said Jeroboam in heart his now it will return the kingdom to [the] house of David.
27 når Folket her drager op for at ofre i HERRENs Hus i Jerusalem, vil dets Hu atter vende sig til dets Herre, Kong Rehabeam af Juda; så slår de mig ihjel og vender tilbage til Kong Rehabeam af Juda!"
If it will go up - the people this to make sacrifices in [the] house of Yahweh in Jerusalem and it will return [the] heart of the people this to to lord their to Rehoboam [the] king of Judah and they will kill me and they will return to Rehoboam [the] king of Judah.
28 Og da Kongen havde overvejet Sagen, lod han lave to Guldkalve og sagde til Folket "Det er for meget for eder med de Rejser til Jerusalem! Se, Israel, her er dine Guder, som førte dig ud af Ægypten!"
And he took counsel the king and he made two calves of gold and he said to them [too] much for you for going up Jerusalem here! gods your O Israel which they brought up you from [the] land of Egypt.

32 Og Jeroboam lod fejre en Fest på den femtende Dagi den ottende Måned i Lighed med den Fest, man havde i Juda; og han steg op på Alteret, han havde ladet lave i Betel, for at ofre til de Tyrekalve han havde ladet lave; og han lod de Præster, han havde indsat på Højene, gøre Tjeneste i Betel.
