2 Chronicles 11
1 And when Rehoboam was come to Jerusalem, he assembled the house of Judah and Benjamin, a hundred and fourscore thousand chosen men, that were warriors, to fight against Israel, to bring the kingdom again to Rehoboam.
Rehoboam chu Jerusalem ahunglhun phat chun Judah phung le Benjamin phunga konin Israel douna ama lenggam tundoh kitna din mi akhomin, galsat ding Sepai sang jakhat le sang somget alheng doh in ahi.
2 But the word of Jehovah came to Shemaiah the man of God, saying,
Ahinlah Pakai chun Pathen mipa Shemiah jah a chun aseijin,
3 Speak unto Rehoboam the son of Solomon, king of Judah, and to all Israel in Judah and Benjamin, saying,
Solomon chapa Rehoboam Judah te Lengpa chule Judah le Benjamin gam'a Israel mite jouse jah’a chun seipeh in,
4 Thus saith Jehovah, Ye shall not go up, nor fight against your brethren: return every man to his house; for this thing is of me. So they hearkened unto the words of Jehovah, and returned from going against Jeroboam.
Pakaiyin hiti hin aseije, “Na inkote dounan galsat hih beh in, inlama kinunglen ajeh chu thilsoh hohi keima bola ahi bouve,” hiti chun amahon Pakai thusei chu anungin Jeroboam dounan gal abol tapouve.
5 And Rehoboam dwelt in Jerusalem, and built cities for defence in Judah.
Rehoboam chu Jerusalema aumden in, Judah te ventupna dingin khopi jouse chu kulpi akai tan ahi.
6 He built Beth-lehem, and Etam, and Tekoa,
Aman Bethlehem, Etan, Tekoa, Beth-Zur, Soco, Adullam,
7 And Beth-zur, and Soco, and Adullam,
Gath, Mareshah, Zeph,
8 and Gath, and Mareshah, and Ziph,
Adorium, Lachish, Azekah,
9 and Adoraim, and Lachish, and Azekah,
Zorah, Aijalon le Hebron asadoh in ahi. Hiche khopi hohi Judah le Benjamin gamsunga kulpi akaiho ahitai.
10 and Zorah, and Aijalon, and Hebron, which are in Judah and in Benjamin, fortified cities.
Jeroboam chun akivennau lampang hou chu asuhat in, chule asunga chun gal lamkai ding atousah in chuleh anneh twidon, olive thaotui le lengpi theitui thil ho ning lhing tah in akoipeh’in ahi.
11 And he fortified the strongholds, and put captains in them, and stores of victuals, and oil and wine.
Chujongleh aban joma kiven tup theina dingin kidalna pho le tengcha hojong, hiche khopi ho sunga chun akoiyin ahi. Chuti chun Judah le Benjamin gamsung chu ventup na noiya aumin ahi.
12 And in every city [he put] shields and spears, and made them exceeding strong. And Judah and Benjamin belonged to him.
Ahinlah sahlam gamkai’a Israel phung holah’a cheng thempu hole Levite chun, abon chaovin Rehoboam alangkaipiu vin ahi.
13 And the priests and the Levites that were in all Israel resorted to him out of all their border.
Levite chun akelngoi chin nau hamhing gam anei-agou jengu jong ahin dalhao vin, Judah gamle Jerusalem lama ahung chaodoh un ahi; ajeh chu Jeroboam le achateu chun thempu ahinauva Pakai kin abol diu ajahdahpeh’u ahi.
14 For the Levites left their suburbs and their possession, and came to Judah and Jerusalem: for Jeroboam and his sons cast them off, that they should not execute the priest’s office unto Jehovah;
Jeroboam chun doiphung le amahon ahou u, kelcha le bongnou lim semthu ho jen le ding chun atumin thempu akilhen nun ahi.
15 and he appointed him priests for the high places, and for the he-goats, and for the calves which he had made.
Israel phung holah’a lungthengsella Pakai Israel Pathen hounom jouse chun, Jerusalema dingin Levite chu ajuitauve. Chuleh hiche lai munna chun apu apao Pakai, Pathen koma thilto abolthei’u ahi.
16 And after them, out of all the tribes of Israel, such as set their hearts to seek Jehovah, the God of Israel, came to Jerusalem to sacrifice unto Jehovah, the God of their fathers.
Hiche hin Judah lenggam ahatsah ben, chule kum thum sung chu Solomon chapa Rehoboam chu akitho piuvin, David le Solomon chonbang chun kitah tah in ajui tauvin ahi.
17 So they strengthened the kingdom of Judah, and made Rehoboam the son of Solomon strong, three years; for they walked three years in the way of David and Solomon.
Rehoboam chun David chapa Jeremoth chanu Mahalath akichen pin ahi. Amanu hi Jesse chapa Eleah chanu Abihail chanu ahi.
18 And Rehoboam took him a wife, Mahalath the daughter of Jerimoth the son of David, [and of] Abihail the daughter of Eliab the son of Jesse;
Mahalath chun chapa thum Jeush, Shamariah le Zaham ahingin ahi.
19 and she bare him sons: Jeush, and Shemariah, and Zaham.
Chujouvin Rehoboam chun Absalom chanu maacah akichen pin, Macaah chun Abijah, Attai, Ziza le Shitomith ahingin ahi.
20 And after her he took Maacah the daughter of Absalom; and she bare him Abijah, and Attai, and Ziza, and Shelomith.
Rehoboam chun ajite leh athaikem holah’a chun Maacah chu alungset penin ahi. Rehoboam chun ji som le get athaikum somgup aneiyin, amaho chun chapa somni le get le chanu som gup ahing uve.
21 And Rehoboam loved Maacah the daughter of Absalom above all his wives and his concubines (for he took eighteen wives, and threescore concubines, and begat twenty and eight sons and threescore daughters).
Rehoboam chun Maacah chapa Abijah chu Leng Chapate lah’a alam kai diu vin apansah in, hiche hin kichentah agon chu ahileh ama chu abana leng ding tina ahi.
22 And Rehoboam appointed Abijah the son of Maacah to be chief, [even] the prince among his brethren; for [he was minded] to make him king.
Rehoboam chun achapa dang ho jong chu mopohna apen, Judah leh Benjamin gamsung pumpia kulpi kikai khopi ho achun atousah in ahi. Amaho chu hongphal tah’in nehle chah apen chule aji diu jong tamtah apuipeh in ahi.
23 And he dealt wisely, and dispersed of all his sons throughout all the lands of Judah and Benjamin, unto every fortified city: and he gave them victuals in abundance. And he sought [for them] many wives.
