2 Weche Mag Ndalo 12
1 Bangʼe kane Rehoboam nosegurore motegno kaka ruoth, en kaachiel gi jo-Israel duto negijwangʼo chike Jehova Nyasaye.
And it came to pass when the kingdom of Roboam was established, and when he had grown strong, [that] he forsook the commandments of the Lord, and all Israel with him.
2 Nikech negiweyo rito chike Jehova Nyasaye, Shishak ruodh Misri nomonjo Jerusalem e higa mar abich mar loch Ruoth Rehoboam.
And it came to pass in the fifth year of the reign of Roboam, Susakim king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, because they had sinned against the Lord,
3 Nobiro gi geche lweny alufu achiel gi mia ariyo kod jolweny moidho farese alufu piero auchiel kod jolweny mangʼeny ma ok kwanre mawuotho mag jo-Libya gi jo-Suk kod Kush bende nobiro kode koa Misri,
with twelve hundred chariots, and sixty thousand horses: and there was no number of the multitude that came with him from Egypt; Libyans, Trogodytes, and Ethiopians.
4 mokawo miech Juda mochiel motegno mobiro nyaka Jerusalem.
And they obtained possession of the strong cities, which were in Juda, and came to Jerusalem.
5 Eka janabi Shemaya nobiro ir Rehoboam kod jotelo mag Juda mano chokore Jerusalem nimar luoro nomakogi nikech Shishak kendo nowachonegi niya, “Ma e gima Jehova Nyasaye owacho, ‘Useweya omiyo an bende koro aweyou e lwet Shishak.’”
And Samaias the prophet came to Roboam, and to the princes of Juda that were gathered to Jerusalem for fear of Susakim, and said to them, Thus said the Lord, You have left me, and I will leave you in the hand of Susakim.
6 Jotend jo-Israel kod ruoth nobolore kawacho niya, “Jehova Nyasaye ni kare.”
And the elders of Israel and the king were ashamed, and said, The Lord [is] righteous.
7 Kane Jehova Nyasaye oneno ni negibolore kamano, wach mar Jehova Nyasaye nobiro ne Shemaya niya, “Nikech gisebolore e nyima ok anatiekgi to abiro resogi bangʼ ndalo manok. Mirimba ok nool Jerusalem koa e lwet Shishak.
And when the Lord saw that they repented, then came the word of the Lord to Samaias, saying, They have repented; I will not destroy them, but I will set them in safety for a little while, and my wrath shall not be poured out on Jerusalem.
8 Kata kamano ginibed e bwo lochne mondo gingʼe pogruok manie kind tiyona kod tiyone ruodhi mag pinje mamoko.”
Nevertheless they shall be servants, and know my service, and the service of the kings of the earth.
9 Kane Shishak ruodh jo-Misri omonjo Jerusalem, noyako mwandu hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye kaachiel gi mwandu mag od ruoth. Nokawo gimoro amora kaachiel gi kuodi mag dhahabu mane Solomon ochuogo.
So Susakim king of Egypt went up against Jerusalem, and took the treasures that were in the house of the Lord, and the treasures that were in the king's house: he took all; and he took the golden shields which Solomon had made.
10 Omiyo Ruoth Rehoboam nochwogo okumbni mag nyinyo mondo oket kar mane okawgo kendo nomiyo jotelo mag jorit mane rito rangach midonjogo e dala ruoth.
And king Roboam made brazen shields instead of them. And Susakim set over him captains of footmen, as keepers of the gate of the king.
11 E kinde moro amora mane ruoth dhi e hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye, joritogo ne tingʼo kuodigo kendo bangʼe negidwokogi e od jorito.
And it came to pass, when the king went into the house of the Lord, the guards and the footmen went in, and they that returned to meet the footmen.
12 Nikech Rehoboam nobolore, mirimb Jehova Nyasaye nowuok kuome kendo ne ok otieke chutho. To bende ne nitie gik moko mabeyo Juda.
And when he repented, the anger of the Lord turned from him, and did not destroy him utterly; for there were good things in Juda.
13 Ruoth Rehoboam nogurore motegno Jerusalem kendo nodhi nyime kaka ruoth. Ne en ja-higni piero angʼwen gachiel kane obedo ruoth kendo norito piny kuom higni apar gabiriyo ka en Jerusalem dala maduongʼ mane Jehova Nyasaye oseyiero kuom dhout jo-Israel duto mondo Nyinge obedie. Min mare ne nyinge Naama ma nyar jo-Amon.
So king Roboam strengthened [himself] in Jerusalem, and reigned: and Roboam was forty and one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, in the city which the Lord chose out of all the tribes of the children of Israel to call his name there: and his mother's name was Noomma the Ammanitess.
14 Notimo richo nikech ne ok oketo chunye mondo odwar Jehova Nyasaye.
And he did evil, for he directed not his heart to seek the Lord.
15 Kuom weche mag loch Rehoboam aa chakruokgi nyaka gikogi, donge ondikgi e kitap Shemaya janabi kod mar Ido janen mandiko nonro mag ji? Ne nitiere lweny ma ok rum e kind Rehoboam gi Jeroboam.
And the acts of Roboam, the first and the last, behold, are they not written in the book of Samaia the prophet, and Addo the seer, with his achievements.
16 Rehoboam notho kaka kwerene kendo noyike kodgi e Dala Maduongʼ mar Daudi. Abija wuode nobedo ruoth kare.
And Roboam made war with Jeroboam all [his] days. And Roboam died with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David: and Abia his son reigned in his stead.
