1 Kings 12
1 Then Rehoboam went to Shechem, for all Israel had gone there to make him king.
Ary Rehoboama nankany Sekema, fa tany no efa nalehan’ ny Isiraely rehetra hampanjaka azy.
2 When Jeroboam son of Nebat heard about this, he was still in Egypt where he had fled from King Solomon and had been living ever since.
Koa raha nandre izany Jeroboama, zanak’ i Nebata (fa izy mbola tany Egypta, izay nalehany tamin’ izy nandositra niala teo anatrehan’ i Solomona mpanjaka;
3 So they sent for Jeroboam, and he and the whole assembly of Israel came to Rehoboam and said,
ka dia naniraka naka azy ny olona), dia tonga izy sy ny fiangonana, dia ny Isiraely rehetra, ka niteny tamin-dRehoboama hoe:
4 “Your father put a heavy yoke on us. But now you should lighten the burden of your father’s service and the heavy yoke he put on us, and we will serve you.”
Rainao dia nampitondra zioga mavesatra anay, fa inty kosa mby aminao ka mba hamaivano ny fanompoana mafy tamin-drainao sy ny zioga mavesatra izay nataony taminay, dia hanompo anao izahay.
5 Rehoboam answered, “Go away for three days and then return to me.” So the people departed.
Fa hoy kosa izy taminy: Mandehana aloha, ka raha afaka hateloana, dia mankanesa atỳ amiko indray. Dia lasa ny olona.
6 Then King Rehoboam consulted with the elders who had served his father Solomon during his lifetime. “How do you advise me to respond to these people?” he asked.
Ary Rehoboama mpanjaka naka hevitra tamin’ ny zoki-olona izay nitoetra teo anatrehan’ i Solomona rainy fony fahavelony ka nanao hoe: Ahoana no hevitra omenareo havaly ny vahoaka?
7 They replied, “If you will be a servant to these people and serve them this day, and if you will respond by speaking kind words to them, they will be your servants forever.”
Dia hoy ireo taminy: Raha mety ho mpanompon’ ny vahoaka ianao izao ka hanompo azy sy hanao teny mora aminy, dia ho mpanomponao mandrakizay izy.
8 But Rehoboam rejected the advice of the elders; instead, he consulted the young men who had grown up with him and served him.
Nefa nolavin-dRehoboama ny hevitra nomen’ ireo zoki-olona azy, dia naka hevitra tamin’ ny tovolahy izay indray nihira taminy sady efa nitoetra teo anatrehany izy
9 He asked them, “What message do you advise that we send back to these people who have spoken to me, saying, ‘Lighten the yoke your father put on us’?”
ka nanao taminy hoe: Ahoana kosa no mba hevitra omenareo havalintsika ny vahoaka izay efa niteny tamiko hoe: Hamaivano ny zioga izay nataon-drainao taminay
10 The young men who had grown up with him replied, “This is how you should answer these people who said to you, ‘Your father made our yoke heavy, but you should make it lighter.’ This is what you should tell them: ‘My little finger is thicker than my father’s waist!
Ary ireo tovolahy indray nihira taminy nanao taminy hoe: Izao no lazao amin’ ny vahoaka izay niteny taminao hoe: Rainao nampitondra zioga mavesatra anay; fa inty kosa mby aminao ka mba hamaivano aminay izany, izao no lazao aminy: Ny ankihikeliko dia lehibe noho ny valahan’ ny raiko;
11 Whereas my father burdened you with a heavy yoke, I will add to your yoke. Whereas my father scourged you with whips, I will scourge you with scorpions.’”
koa raha nampitondra zioga mavesatra anareo ny raiko, izaho kosa dia mainka hanampy ny zioga ho entinareo; kotopia no namaizan’ ny raiko anareo, fa maingoka fikapohana kosa no hamaizako anareo.
12 After three days, Jeroboam and all the people returned to Rehoboam, since the king had said, “Come back to me on the third day.”
Ary Jeroboama sy ny vahoaka rehetra nankany amin-dRehoboama tamin’ ny andro fahatelo, araka ilay nolazain’ ny mpanjaka hoe: Mankanesa atỳ amiko indray amin’ ny andro fahatelo.
13 And the king answered the people harshly. He rejected the advice of the elders
Ary ny mpanjaka nanao teny mafy tamin’ ny olona, fa nandà ny saina nomen’ ireo zoki-olona azy izy
14 and spoke to them as the young men had advised, saying, “Whereas my father made your yoke heavy, I will add to your yoke. Whereas my father scourged you with whips, I will scourge you with scorpions.”
ka niteny taminy araka ny hevitra nomen’ ireo tovolahy hoe: Ny raiko dia nampitondra zioga mavesatra anareo, fa izaho kosa mainka hanampy ny zioga ho entinareo, kotopia no namazain’ ny raiko anareo, fa maingoka fikapohana kosa no hamaizako anareo.
15 So the king did not listen to the people, and indeed this turn of events was from the LORD, to fulfill the word He had spoken to Jeroboam son of Nebat through Ahijah the Shilonite.
Koa dia tsy nihaino ny olona ny mpanjaka; fa avy tamin’ i Jehovah izany zavatra izany hahatanteraka ny teniny izay nampilazainy an’ i Ahia Silonita tamin’ i Jeroboama, zanak’ i Nebata.
16 When all Israel saw that the king had refused to listen to them, they answered the king: “What portion do we have in David, and what inheritance in the son of Jesse? To your tents, O Israel! Look now to your own house, O David!” So the Israelites went home,
Ary nony hitan’ ny Isiraely rehetra fa tsy nihaino azy ny mpanjaka, dia namaly ny mpanjaka ny vahoaka ka nanao hoe: Inona moa no anjaranay amin’ i Davida? Tsy manana lova amin’ ny zanak’ i Jese izahay; samia mody any an-dainy avy, ry Isiraely e; ankehitriny tandremo ny taranakao, ry Davida ô. Dia samy nody ho any an-dainy avy ny Isiraely.
17 but Rehoboam still reigned over the Israelites living in the cities of Judah.
Fa ny Zanak’ Isiraely izay nonina tany an-tanànan’ ny Joda ihany no nanjakan-dRehoboama.
18 Then King Rehoboam sent out Adoram, who was in charge of the forced labor, but all Israel stoned him to death. And King Rehoboam mounted his chariot in haste and escaped to Jerusalem.
Ary dia naniraka an’ i Adorama, komandin’ ny mpanao fanompoana, Rehoboama mpanjaka, nefa ny Isiraely rehetra nitora-bato azy, ka maty izy. Dia niezaka faingana nankeo amin’ ny kalesiny Rehoboama mpanjaka handositra ho any Jerosalema.
19 So to this day Israel has been in rebellion against the house of David.
Ka dia niodina tamin’ ny taranak’ i Davida ny Isiraely mandraka androany.
20 When all Israel heard that Jeroboam had returned, they summoned him to the assembly and made him king over all Israel. Only the tribe of Judah followed the house of David.
Ary rehefa ren’ ny Isiraely rehetra fa efa tafaverina indray Jeroboama, dia naniraka naka azy ho ao amin’ ny fivoriana izy ka nampanjaka azy tamin’ ny Isiraely rehetra; dia tsy nisy nanaraka ny taranak’ i Davida afa-tsy ny firenen’ i Joda ihany.
21 And when Rehoboam arrived in Jerusalem, he mobilized the whole house of Judah and the tribe of Benjamin—180,000 chosen warriors—to fight against the house of Israel and restore the kingdom to Rehoboam son of Solomon.
Ary nony tonga tany Jerosalema Rehoboama, dia novoriny ny taranak’ i Joda rehetra mbamin’ ny firenen’ i Benjamina, dia miaramila valo alina amby iray hetsy voafantina, hiady amin’ ny taranak’ Isiraely hampody ny fanjakana indray ho an-dRehoboama, zanak’ i Solomona.
22 But the word of God came to Shemaiah the man of God:
Kanjo tonga tamin’ i Semaia, lehilahin’ Andriamanitra, kosa ny tenin’ Andriamanitra nanao hoe
23 “Tell Rehoboam son of Solomon king of Judah, all the house of Judah and Benjamin, and the rest of the people
Mitenena amin-dRehoboama, zanak’ i Solomona, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, sy amin’ ny taranak’ i Joda sy Benjamina rehetra ary amin’ ny vahoaka sisa hoe:
24 that this is what the LORD says: ‘You are not to go up and fight against your brothers, the Israelites. Each of you must return home, for this word is from Me.’” So they listened to the word of the LORD and turned back according to the word of the LORD.
Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Aza mandeha hiady amin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely rahalahinareo; fa samia mody any an-tranony avy ianareo, fa avy amiko izao zavatra izao. Dia nihaino ny tenin’ i Jehovah ny olona, ka dia samy lasa nody araka ny tenin’ i Jehovah.
25 Then Jeroboam built Shechem in the hill country of Ephraim and lived there. And from there he went out and built Penuel.
Ary Jeroboama dia nanamboatra an’ i Sekema any amin’ ny tany havoan’ i Efraima ka nonina tao; ary raha avy tao izy, dia nanamboatra an’ i Pehoela koa.
26 Jeroboam said in his heart, “Now the kingdom might revert to the house of David.
Ary Jeroboama nanao anakampo hoe: Izao ny fanjakana dia hody amin’ ny taranak’ i Davida ihany;
27 If these people go up to offer sacrifices in the house of the LORD at Jerusalem, their hearts will return to their lord, Rehoboam king of Judah; then they will kill me and return to Rehoboam king of Judah.”
fa raha miakatra hamono zavatra hatao fanatitra ao amin’ ny tranon’ i Jehovah any Jerosalema ny vahoaka, dia hody amin’ ny tompony indray ny fony dia amin-dRehoboama, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, ary dia hamono ahy izy ka hiverina any amin-dRehoboama, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, indray.
28 After seeking advice, the king made two golden calves and said to the people, “Going up to Jerusalem is too much for you. Here, O Israel, are your gods, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt.”
Dia nihevitra ny mpanjaka ka nanao ombilahy kely volamena roa; ary hoy izy tamin’ ny olona: “Aoka izay ny fiakaranareo any Jerosalema! Ry Isiraely ô” indreo ny andriamanitrao, izay nitondra anao nivoaka avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta.
29 One calf he set up in Bethel, and the other in Dan.
Ary ny anankiray dia napetrany tao Betela, fa ny anankiray kosa dia tao Dana.
30 And this thing became a sin; the people walked as far as Dan to worship before one of the calves.
Ary izany zavatra izany dia tonga fahotana; fa ny olona dia nandeha hivavaha teo anatrehan’ ny anankiray amin’ ireo hatrany Dana.
31 Jeroboam also built shrines on the high places and appointed from every class of people priests who were not Levites.
Ary nanao trano teny amin’ ny fitoerana avo izy sady nanendry olona hafa ho mpisorona, izay tsy isan’ ny taranak’ i Levy.
32 And Jeroboam ordained a feast on the fifteenth day of the eighth month, like the feast that was in Judah, and he offered sacrifices on the altar; he made this offering in Bethel to sacrifice to the calves he had set up, and he installed priests in Bethel for the high places he had set up.
Ary Jeroboama, nanendry andro firavoravoana tamin’ ny andro fahadimy ambin’ ny folo amin’ ny volana fahavalo, tahaka ny andro firavoravoana tamin’ ny Joda ihany, ka nanatitra fanatitra teo ambonin’ ny alitara izy. Toy izany no nataony tao Betela, fa namono zavatra hatao fanatitra ho an’ ireo ombilahy kely izay nataony izy; ary nampitoeriny tao Betela ireo mpisorona amin’ ny fitoerana avo izay notendreny.
33 On the fifteenth day of the eighth month, a month of his own choosing, Jeroboam offered sacrifices on the altar he had set up in Bethel. So he ordained a feast for the Israelites, offered sacrifices on the altar, and burned incense.
Ary nanatitra fanatitra teo ambonin’ ny alitara izay nataony tao Betela izy tamin’ ny andro fahadimy ambin’ ny folo amin’ ny volana fahavalo, volana izay notendreny araka ny sitrapony ihany; ary nanao andro firavoravoana ho an’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely izy sady nanatitra fanatitra teo ambonin’ ny alitara sy nandoro ditin-kazo manitra.
