2 Chronicles 10
1 Then Rehoboam went to Shechem, for all Israel had gone there to make him king.
Rehoboam el som nu Shechem, yen mwet nukewa epang in Israel elos fahsreni nu we in oru tuh elan tokosrala.
2 When Jeroboam son of Nebat heard about this, he returned from Egypt, where he had fled from King Solomon.
Ke Jeroboam, wen natul Nebat, su tuh som nu Egypt in kaing lukel Tokosra Solomon, el lohng pweng se inge, na el folokla nu yen sel.
3 So they sent for Jeroboam, and he and all Israel came to Rehoboam and said,
Mwet in sruf epang elos sapla solal, ac elos nukewa tukeni som nu yorol Rehoboam ac fahk nu sel,
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.”
“Papa tomom ah tuh use mwe utuk na toasr nu facsr. Tusruktu kom fin akfusrasryela mwe utuk inge, na kut ac fah mwet kulansap pwaye nu sum.”
5 Rehoboam answered, “Come back to me in three days.” So the people departed.
Na Rehoboam el fahk, “Se nu sik len tolu nga in nunku kac, na kowos fah sifil foloko.” Ouinge mwet uh som.
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.
Tokosra Rehoboam el siyuk sin mwet matu su tuh mwet kasru lal Solomon, papa tumal, ac fahk, “Top fuka kowos nunku mu fal nga in sang topuk siyuk lun mwet inge?”
7 They replied, “If you will be kind to these people and please them by speaking kind words to them, they will be your servants forever.”
Elos topuk ac fahk, “Kom fin kulang nu sin mwet ingan ac akinsewowoyalos ac sulela sie top wowo an nu selos, na elos ac fah oaru in kulansupwekom pacl nukewa.”
8 But Rehoboam rejected the advice of the elders; instead, he consulted the young men who had grown up with him and served him.
Tusruktu el pilesru kas in kasru lun mwet matu, ac som nu yurin mwet fusr su nuna welul ke elos tulik ah me, ac inge el oru mu elos pa mwet kasru lal.
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’?”
El siyuk selos, “Mea kowos nunku mu wo nga in oru? Ke mwet uh siyuk ngan akmulalaye enu lalos uh, mea nga ac fahk nu selos?”
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!
Elos topuk, “Pa inge ma kom ac fahk nu selos an: ‘Kuf srisrik soko ke pouk uh yohk liki infulwen papa tumuk ah.’
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.’”
Fahk nu selos mu, ‘Papa tumuk el sot enu toasr nu fowos, a nga ac sot in toasr liki. El puok kowos ke mwe sringsring, a nga fah sringil kowos ke scorpion!’”
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.”
Tukun len tolu, Jeroboam ac mwet nukewa folokla nu yorol Rehoboam, oana ke el tuh fahk nu selos ah.
13 And the king answered them harshly. King Rehoboam rejected the advice of the elders
Tokosra el pilesru kas in kasru lun mwet matu, a el kaskas upa nu sin mwet uh.
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.”
El fahk oana ke mwet fusr wial elos fahk, “Papa tumuk el sot enu toasr nu fowos, a nga ac sot in toasr liki! El puok kowos ke mwe sringsring, a nga ac sringil kowos ke sucl lulap!”
15 So the king did not listen to the people, and indeed this turn of events was from God, in order that the LORD might fulfill the word that He had spoken through Ahijah the Shilonite to Jeroboam son of Nebat.
Pa ingan ma lungse lun LEUM GOD in akpwayeye ma El tuh fahk nu sel Jeroboam, wen natul Nebat, in kas lun mwet palu Ahijah mwet Shiloh. Pa inge sripa se sis tokosra el tiana lohang nu sin mwet uh.
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 all the Israelites went home,
Ke mwet uh liye tuh tokosra el tiana lohngolos, na elos wowoyak ac fahk, “Tolulla David ac sou lal! Mea elos nu orala nu sesr? Mwet Israel, kut som nu yen sesr! Lela Rehoboam elan sifacna liyalang!” Ouinge mwet Israel elos orek alein,
17 but Rehoboam still reigned over the Israelites living in the cities of Judah.
pwanang Rehoboam el tokosra lun mwet ma muta Judah mukena.
18 Then King Rehoboam sent out Hadoram, who was in charge of the forced labor, but the Israelites stoned him to death. And King Rehoboam mounted his chariot in haste and escaped to Jerusalem.
Na Tokosra Rehoboam el supwalla Adoniram, su kol orekma lun mwet kohs, elan som nu yurin mwet Israel, a elos tanglal nwe ke el misa. Ke ma inge, Rehoboam el sulaklak sroang nu fin chariot natul, ac kaingla nu Jerusalem.
19 So to this day Israel has been in rebellion against the house of David.
In pacl sac me, mwet epang in Israel elos alein na nu sin mwet nukewa su leum sin fwilin tulik natul David.
