1 Kings 14
1 At that time Abijah son of Jeroboam became ill,
Te vaeng tue ah Jeroboam capa Abijah te tlo.
2 and Jeroboam said to his wife, “Now get up, disguise yourself so they will not recognize you as my wife, and go to Shiloh. For Ahijah the prophet is there; it was he who spoke about my kingship over this people.
Te dongah Jeroboam loh a yuu te, “Thoo lamtah thovael uh laeh. Te daengah ni nang te Jeroboam yuu la m'hmat pawt eh. Shiloh kah tonghma Ahijah taengah cet ne. Anih long ni he pilnam soah manghai la om ham kai taengah a thui.
3 Take with you ten loaves of bread, some cakes, and a jar of honey, and go to him. He will tell you what will become of the boy.”
Na kut dongah buhham neh buhrhaeng cun rha, khoitui tuitang um at khuen. A taengla paan lamtah camoe taengah metla a om ham khaw amah loh nang taengah han thui bitni,” a ti nah.
4 Jeroboam’s wife did as instructed; she arose and went to Shiloh and arrived at Ahijah’s house. Now Ahijah could not see, for his eyes were dim because of his age.
Jeroboam yuu loh a saii van tangloeng. Thoo tih Shiloh la cet tih Ahijah im a pha. Ahijah khaw a hamca neh a mik hmang tih hmu thai voel pawh.
5 But the LORD had said to Ahijah, “Behold, the wife of Jeroboam is coming to ask you about her son, for he is ill. You are to say such and such to her, because when she arrives, she will be disguised.”
Tedae BOEIPA Ahijah taengah, “Jeroboam yuu ke a capa kah a tloh dongah nang taengah ol dawt ham ha pawk coeng. Anih te, ‘He tlam ni, ke tlam ni,’ ti nah. Anih ha pawk khaw amah loha lah ko,” a ti nah.
6 So when Ahijah heard the sound of her feet entering the door, he said, “Come in, wife of Jeroboam! Why are you disguised? For I have been sent to you with bad news.
Thohka a pha vaengah a kho ol te Ahijah loh a yaak tih, “Jeroboam yuu ha kun saw, balae tih na muet uh? Kai he nang ham mangkhak la n'tueih coeng.
7 Go, tell Jeroboam that this is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘I raised you up from among the people and appointed you ruler over My people Israel.
Cet lamtah Jeroboam taengah thui pah. Israel Pathen BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Nang he pilnam khui lamloh kan pomsang tih nang he ka pilnam Israel soah rhaengsang la kang khueh.
8 I tore the kingdom away from the house of David and gave it to you. But you were not like My servant David, who kept My commandments and followed Me with all his heart, doing only what was right in My eyes.
Ram he David imkhui lamloh ka phen tih nang taengah kam paek coeng. Tedae ka olpaek aka ngaithuen tih ka mik ah a thuem bueng saii ham a thinko boeih neh kai hnukah aka pongpa ka sal David bangla na om moenih.
9 You have done more evil than all who came before you. You have proceeded to make for yourself other gods and molten images to provoke Me, and you have flung Me behind your back.
Namah hmai kah aka om boeih lakah na saii khaw na thae aih. Na cet tih namah ham pathen tloe na saii. Mueihlawn neh kai nan veet tih kai he na nam la nan voeih.
10 Because of all this, behold, I am bringing disaster on the house of Jeroboam: I will cut off from Jeroboam every male, both slave and free, in Israel; I will burn up the house of Jeroboam as one burns up dung until it is gone!
Te dongah Jeroboam im ah boethae ka khuen coeng he. Jeroboam lamloh pangbueng aka yun thil tih a khoh khaw, Israel khuikah aka loeih khaw ka thup ni. Aekkhuel a cing hil a toih bangla Jeroboam imkhui hnukah ka toih ni.
11 Anyone belonging to Jeroboam who dies in the city will be eaten by dogs, and anyone who dies in the field will be eaten by the birds of the air.’
BOEIPA loh a thui coeng dongah Jeroboam kah a duek rhok te khopuei ah ui loh a caak vetih lohma ah aka duek te vaan kah vaa rhoek loh a caak ni.
12 As for you, get up and go home. When your feet enter the city, the child will die.
Namah thoo lamtah na im la mael laeh. Na kho loh khopuei khuila a kun neh camoe te duek ni.
13 All Israel will mourn for him and bury him. For this is the only one belonging to Jeroboam who will receive a proper burial, because only in him has the LORD, the God of Israel, found any good in the house of Jeroboam.
Anih te Israel pum loh a rhaengsae vetih a up ni. Jeroboam im ah Israel Pathen BOEIPA kah hno then he a khuiah a hmuh dongah Jeroboam khui lamloh anih bueng he ni phuel khuila a pha eh.
14 Moreover, the LORD will raise up for Himself a king over Israel who will cut off the house of Jeroboam. This is the day—yes, even today!
BOEIPA loh Israel soah manghai a pai sak ni. Anih loh tahae khohnin ah Jeroboam imkhui te a thup pawn ni.
15 For the LORD will strike Israel as a reed is shaken in the water. He will uproot Israel from this good land that He gave their fathers, and He will scatter them beyond the Euphrates, because they have made their Asherah poles, provoking the LORD to anger.
BOEIPA loh Israel te tui dongkah capu a vikvawk bangla a ngawn vetih a napa rhoek taengah a paek he khohmuen then dong lamloh Israel te a phuk ni. Amamih kah Asherah a saii uh neh BOEIPA te a veet uh dongah amih te tuiva rhalvangan duela a haeh uh ni.
16 So He will give Israel over on account of the sins Jeroboam has committed and has caused Israel to commit.”
Jeroboam kah tholhnah kong ah tholh tih Israel a tholh vanbangla Israel te a tloeng ni,” a ti nah.
17 Then Jeroboam’s wife got up and departed for Tirzah, and as soon as she stepped over the threshold of the house, the boy died.
Te phoeiah Jeroboam yuu te thoo tih mael. Tirzah la cet tih im kah cingkhaa te a cawt vaengah camoe te duek.
18 And they buried him, and all Israel mourned for him, according to the word that the LORD had spoken through His servant Ahijah the prophet.
BOEIPA ol loh a sal tonghma Ahijah kut ah a thui bangla camoe a up uh vaengah Israel pum loh anih te a rhaengsae uh.
19 As for the rest of the acts of Jeroboam, how he waged war and how he reigned, they are indeed written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
Ol noi la Jeroboam kah a vathoh neh a manghai te, Israel manghai rhoek kah khokhuen tue olka cabu dongah a daek uh ne.
20 And the length of Jeroboam’s reign was twenty-two years, and he rested with his fathers, and his son Nadab reigned in his place.
A khohnin la Jeroboam he kum kul kum nit a manghai phoeiah tah a napa rhoek taengla khoem uh. Te phoeiah tah anih yueng la a capa Nadab tloep manghai.
21 Meanwhile, Rehoboam son of Solomon reigned in Judah. He was forty-one years old when he became king, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city the LORD had chosen from all the tribes of Israel in which to put His Name. His mother’s name was Naamah the Ammonite.
Solomon capa Rehoboam tah Judah ah manghai. Rehoboam a manghai vaengah kum sawmli kum khat lo ca coeng. Israel koca boeih khui lamloh amah ming te pahoi khueh ham BOEIPA loh a coelh Jerusalem khopuei ah kum hlai rhih manghai. A manu ming tah Ammoni nu Naamah ni.
22 And Judah did evil in the sight of the LORD, and by the sins they committed they provoked Him to jealous anger more than all their fathers had done.
Judah khaw BOEIPA mikhmuh ah boethae a saii. A tholhnah neh a tholh uh te a napa rhoek kah a saii boeih lakah BOEIPA a thatlai sak uh.
23 They also built for themselves high places, sacred pillars, and Asherah poles on every high hill and under every green tree.
Amih loh hmuensang neh kaam te amamih ham a thoh uh. Som a sang boeih neh thing hing hmui boeih ah Asherah a ling uh.
24 There were even male shrine prostitutes in the land. They imitated all the abominations of the nations the LORD had driven out before the Israelites.
BOEIPA loh Israel ca rhoek mikhmuh ah a haek namtom rhoek kah tueilaehkoi cungkuem bangla a saii uh tih khohmuen ah hlanghalh khaw om.
25 In the fifth year of Rehoboam’s reign, Shishak king of Egypt came up and attacked Jerusalem.
Rehoboam manghai te a kum nga dongla a pha vaengah Egypt manghai Shishak loh Jerusalem te a paan.
26 He seized the treasures of the house of the LORD and of the royal palace. He took everything, including all the gold shields that Solomon had made.
Te vaengah BOEIPA im kah thakvoh neh manghai im kah thakvoh khaw vik a phueih. Solomon loh a saii sui photling boeih te khaw a pum la a loh tih a khuen.
27 Then King Rehoboam made bronze shields in their place and committed them to the care of the captains of the guard on duty at the entrance to the royal palace.
Te dongah manghai Rehoboam loh a yueng la rhohum photling a saii tih manghai im thohka aka tawt imtawt mangpa kut ah a soep sak.
28 And whenever the king entered the house of the LORD, the guards would bear the shields, and later they would return them to the guardroom.
BOEIPA im la manghai a kun dingdoeng vaengah imtawt rhoek loh te te a muk uh. Te phoeiah tah imtawt kah tanhnaem la koep a khoem uh.
29 As for the rest of the acts of Rehoboam, along with all that he did, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
Rehoboam kah ol noi neh a saii boeih te Judah manghai rhoek kah khokhuen olka cabu dongah a daek uh moenih a?
30 There was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam throughout their days.
Rehoboam laklo neh Jeroboam laklo ah hnin takuem caemtloek om.
31 And Rehoboam rested with his fathers and was buried with them in the City of David; his mother’s name was Naamah the Ammonite. And his son Abijam reigned in his place.
Rehoboam te a napa rhoek taengla a khoem uh vaengah tah David khopuei kah a napa rhoek taengah a up. A manu ming he Ammoni Naamah ni. Te phoeiah anih yueng la a capa Abijam te manghai.
