1 Kings 14
1 At that time Abijah, the son of Jeroboam, became ill.
Pada waktu itu Abia, anak Yerobeam, jatuh sakit.
2 And Jeroboam said to his wife, Now come, put on different clothing so that you may not seem to be the wife of Jeroboam, and go to Shiloh; see, Ahijah is there, the prophet who said I would be king over this people.
Lalu Yerobeam berkata kepada isterinya: "Berkemaslah! Menyamarlah, supaya jangan diketahui orang, bahwa engkau isteri Yerobeam, dan pergilah ke Silo. Bukankah di sana tinggal nabi Ahia! Dialah yang telah mengatakan tentang aku, bahwa aku akan menjadi raja atas bangsa ini.
3 And take with you ten cakes of bread and dry cakes and a pot of honey, and go to him: he will give you word of what is to become of the child.
Bawalah sepuluh roti, kue kismis, dan sebuli-buli air madu, dan pergilah kepadanya. Dia akan memberitahukan kepadamu, apa yang akan terjadi dengan anak ini."
4 So Jeroboam's wife did so, and got up and went to Shiloh and came to the house of Ahijah. Now Ahijah was unable to see, because he was very old.
Isteri Yerobeam berbuat demikian. Ia berkemas, pergi ke Silo dan masuk ke rumah Ahia. Ahia tidak dapat melihat lagi, sebab matanya sudah kabur karena ia sudah tua.
5 And the Lord had said to Ahijah, The wife of Jeroboam is coming to get news from you about her son, who is ill; give her such and such an answer; for she will make herself seem to be another woman.
Tetapi TUHAN telah berfirman kepada Ahia: "Bahwasanya isteri Yerobeam datang untuk menanyakan kepadamu perihal anaknya, sebab anak itu sedang sakit. Begini-begini harus kaukatakan kepadanya." Ketika perempuan itu masuk, berbuatlah ia seolah-olah ia orang lain.
6 Then Ahijah, hearing the sound of her footsteps coming in at the door, said, Come in, O wife of Jeroboam; why do you make yourself seem like another? for I am sent to you with bitter news.
Tetapi segera sesudah Ahia mendengar bunyi langkah perempuan itu, sementara melangkah masuk pintu, berkatalah ia: "Masuklah, hai isteri Yerobeam! Mengapakah engkau berbuat seolah-olah engkau orang lain? Aku disuruh menyampaikan pesan yang keras kepadamu.
7 Go, say to Jeroboam, These are the words of the Lord, the God of Israel: Though I took you from among the people, lifting you up to be a ruler over my people Israel,
Pergilah, katakan kepada Yerobeam: Beginilah firman TUHAN, Allah Israel: Aku telah meninggikan engkau dari tengah-tengah bangsa itu, dan mengangkat engkau menjadi raja atas umat-Ku Israel;
8 And took the kingdom away by force from the seed of David and gave it to you, you have not been like my servant David, who kept my orders, and was true to me with all his heart, doing only what was right in my eyes.
Aku telah mengoyakkan kerajaan dari keluarga Daud dan memberikannya kepadamu, tetapi engkau tidak seperti hamba-Ku Daud yang tetap mentaati segala perintah-Ku dan mengikuti Aku dengan segenap hatinya dan hanya melakukan apa yang benar di mata-Ku.
9 But you have done evil more than any before you, and have made for yourself other gods, and images of metal, moving me to wrath, and turning your back on me.
Sebab engkau telah melakukan perbuatan jahat lebih dari semua orang yang mendahului engkau dan telah membuat bagimu allah lain dan patung-patung tuangan, sehingga engkau menimbulkan sakit hati-Ku, bahkan engkau telah membelakangi Aku.
10 So I will send evil on the line of Jeroboam, cutting off from his family every male child, those who are shut up and those who go free in Israel; the family of Jeroboam will be brushed away like a man brushing away waste till it is all gone.
Maka Aku akan mendatangkan malapetaka kepada keluarga Yerobeam. Aku akan melenyapkan dari pada Yerobeam setiap orang laki-laki, baik yang tinggi maupun yang rendah kedudukannya di Israel. Aku akan menyapu keluarga Yerobeam seperti orang menyapu tahi sampai habis.
11 Those of the family of Jeroboam who come to death in the town, will become food for the dogs; and those on whom death comes in the open country, will be food for the birds of the air; for the Lord has said it.
Setiap orang dari pada Yerobeam yang mati di kota akan dimakan anjing dan yang mati di padang akan dimakan burung yang di udara. Sebab TUHAN telah mengatakannya.
12 Up, then! go back to your house; and in the hour when your feet go into the town, the death of the child will take place.
Tetapi bangunlah dan pulang ke rumahmu. Pada saat kakimu melangkah masuk kota, anak itu akan mati.
13 And all Israel will put his body to rest, weeping over him, because he only of the family of Jeroboam will be put into his resting-place in the earth; for of all the family of Jeroboam, in him only has the Lord, the God of Israel, seen some good.
Seluruh Israel akan meratapi dia dan menguburkan dia, sebab hanya dialah dari pada keluarga Yerobeam yang akan mendapat kubur, sebab di antara keluarga Yerobeam hanya padanyalah terdapat sesuatu yang baik di mata TUHAN, Allah Israel.
14 And the Lord will put up a king over Israel who will send destruction on the family of Jeroboam in that day;
Dan TUHAN akan membangkitkan bagi-Nya seorang raja atas Israel yang akan melenyapkan keluarga Yerobeam--seperti kenyataan sekarang ini.
15 And even now the hand of the Lord has come down on Israel, shaking it like a river-grass in the water; and, uprooting Israel from this good land, which he gave to their fathers, he will send them this way and that on the other side of the River; because they have made for themselves images, moving the Lord to wrath.
Kemudian TUHAN akan menghajar orang Israel, sehingga tergoyah-goyah seperti gelagah di air dan Ia akan menyentakkan mereka dari pada tanah yang baik ini yang telah diberikan-Nya kepada nenek moyang mereka; Ia akan menyerakkan mereka ke seberang sungai Efrat sana, oleh karena mereka telah membuat tiang-tiang berhala mereka dan dengan demikian menyakiti hati TUHAN.
16 And he will give Israel up because of the sins which Jeroboam has done and made Israel do.
Ia akan lepas tangan terhadap orang Israel oleh karena dosa-dosa yang telah dilakukan Yerobeam dan yang mengakibatkan orang Israel berdosa pula."
17 Then Jeroboam's wife got up and went away and came to Tirzah; and when she came to the doorway of the house, death came to the child.
Sesudah itu bangkitlah isteri Yerobeam dan pergi, lalu sampailah ia ke Tirza. Pada saat ia masuk melangkahi ambang pintu rumah, matilah anak itu.
18 And all Israel put his body to rest, weeping over him, as the Lord had said by his servant Ahijah the prophet.
Mereka menguburkannya, dan seluruh Israel meratapi dia sesuai dengan firman TUHAN yang diucapkan-Nya dengan perantaraan hamba-Nya, nabi Ahia.
19 Now the rest of the acts of Jeroboam, how he made war and how he became king, are recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Israel.
Selebihnya dari riwayat Yerobeam, bagaimana ia berperang dan bagaimana ia memerintah, sesungguhnya semuanya itu tertulis dalam kitab sejarah raja-raja Israel.
20 And Jeroboam was king for twenty-two years, and was put to rest with his fathers, and Nadab his son became king in his place.
Lamanya Yerobeam memerintah ada dua puluh dua tahun, kemudian ia mendapat perhentian bersama-sama dengan nenek moyangnya. Maka anaknya menjadi raja menggantikan dia.
21 And Rehoboam, the son of Solomon, was king in Judah. Rehoboam was forty-one years old when he became king, and he was king for seventeen years in Jerusalem, the town which the Lord had made his out of all the tribes of Israel, to put his name there; his mother's name was Naamah, an Ammonite woman.
Adapun Rehabeam, anak Salomo, ia memerintah di Yehuda. Rehabeam berumur empat puluh satu tahun pada waktu ia menjadi raja, dan tujuh belas tahun lamanya ia memerintah di Yerusalem, kota yang dipilih TUHAN dari antara segala suku Israel untuk membuat nama-Nya tinggal di sana. Nama ibunya ialah Naama, seorang perempuan Amon.
22 And Judah did evil in the eyes of the Lord, and made him more angry than their fathers had done by their sins.
Tetapi orang Yehuda melakukan apa yang jahat di mata TUHAN dan mereka menimbulkan cemburu-Nya dengan dosa yang diperbuat mereka, lebih dari pada segala yang dilakukan nenek moyang mereka.
23 For they made high places and upright stones and wood pillars on every high hill and under every green tree;
Sebab merekapun juga mendirikan tempat-tempat pengorbanan dan tugu-tugu berhala dan tiang-tiang berhala di atas setiap bukit yang tinggi dan di bawah setiap pohon yang rimbun.
24 And more than this, there were those in the land who were used for sex purposes in the worship of the gods, doing the same disgusting crimes as the nations which the Lord had sent out before the children of Israel.
Bahkan ada pelacuran bakti di negeri itu. Mereka berlaku sesuai dengan segala perbuatan keji bangsa-bangsa yang telah dihalau TUHAN dari orang Israel.
25 Now in the fifth year of King Rehoboam, Shishak, king of Egypt, came up against Jerusalem;
Tetapi pada tahun kelima zaman raja Rehabeam, majulah Sisak, raja Mesir, menyerang Yerusalem.
26 And took away all the stored wealth from the house of the Lord, and from the king's house, and all the gold body-covers which Solomon had made.
Ia merampas barang-barang perbendaharaan rumah TUHAN dan barang-barang perbendaharaan rumah raja; semuanya dirampasnya. Ia merampas juga segala perisai emas yang dibuat Salomo.
27 So in their place King Rehoboam had other body-covers made of brass, and gave them into the care of the captains of the armed men who were stationed at the door of the king's house.
Sebagai gantinya raja Rehabeam membuat perisai-perisai tembaga, yang dipercayakannya kepada pemimpin-pemimpin bentara yang menjaga pintu istana raja.
28 And whenever the king went into the house of the Lord, the armed men went with him taking the body-covers, and then took them back to their room.
Setiap kali raja masuk ke rumah TUHAN, bentara-bentara membawa masuk perisai-perisai itu, dan mereka pula yang mengembalikannya ke kamar jaga para bentara.
29 Now the rest of the acts of Rehoboam, and all he did, are they not recorded in the book of the history of the kings of Judah?
Selebihnya dari riwayat Rehabeam dan segala yang dilakukannya, bukankah semuanya itu tertulis dalam kitab sejarah raja-raja Yehuda?
30 And there was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all their days.
Dan terus-menerus perang ada antara Rehabeam dan Yerobeam.
31 And Rehoboam went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth with his fathers in the town of David; his mother's name was Naamah, an Ammonite woman. And Abijam his son became king in his place.
Kemudian Rehabeam mendapat perhentian bersama-sama dengan nenek moyangnya, dan ia dikuburkan di samping nenek moyangnya di kota Daud. Nama ibunya ialah Naama, seorang perempuan Amon. Maka Abiam, anaknya, menjadi raja menggantikan dia.
