< 2 Chronicles 12 >
1 Now when Rehoboam's position as king had been made certain, and he was strong, he gave up the law of the Lord, and all Israel with him.
Ary Rehoboama, rehefa nampandry ny ny fanjakany sady efa nahery, dia nahafoy ny lalan’ i Jehovah izy sy ny Isiraely rehetra.
2 Now in the fifth year of King Rehoboam, Shishak, king of Egypt, came up against Jerusalem, because of their sin against the Lord,
Ary tamin’ ny taona fahadimy nanjakan-dRehoboama mpanjaka dia niakatra Sisaka, mpanjakan’ i Egypta, hamely an’ i Jerosalema, fa nivadika tamin’ i Jehovah ny mponina tany,
3 With twelve hundred war-carriages and sixty thousand horsemen: and the people who came with him out of Egypt were more than might be numbered: Lubim and Sukkiim and Ethiopians.
ary nitondra kalesy roan-jato amby arivo sy mpitaingin-tsoavaly enina alina izy, ary tsy hita isa ny olona izay nanaraka azy avy tany Egypta, dia ny Lobita sy ny Sokita ary ny Etiopiana.
4 And he took the walled towns of Judah, and came as far as Jerusalem.
Dia nahafaka ny tanàna mimanda izay any Joda izy ka tonga tany Jerosalema.
5 Now Shemaiah the prophet came to Rehoboam and the chiefs of Judah, who had come together in Jerusalem because of Shishak, and said to them, The Lord has said, Because you have given me up, I have given you up into the hands of Shishak.
Ary Semaia mpaminany tonga tao amin-dRehoboama sy ireo mpanapaka ny Joda, izay tafangona tany Jerosalema noho ny amin’ i Sisaka, ka nanao taminy hoe: Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Hianareo efa nahafoy Ahy, koa Izaho kosa dia mba nahafoy anareo ho eo an-tànan’ i Sisaka.
6 Then the chiefs of Israel and the king made themselves low and said, The Lord is upright.
Dia niaiky ireo mpanapaka ny Isiraely sy ny mpanjaka ka nanao hoe: Marina Jehovah.
7 And the Lord, seeing that they had made themselves low, said to Shemaiah, They have made themselves low: I will not send destruction on them, but in a short time I will give them salvation, and will not let loose my wrath on Jerusalem by the hand of Shishak.
Ary nony hitan’ i Jehovah fa niaiky izy, dia tonga tao amin’ i Semaia indray ny tenin’ i Jehovah nanao hoe: Efa niaiky izy, ka dia tsy handringana azy Aho, fa tsy ho ela dia hamonjy azy; ary tsy haidiko amin’ i Jerosalema avy amin’ ny tànan’ i Sisaka ny fahatezerako.
8 But still they will become his servants, so that they may see how different my yoke is from the yoke of the kingdoms of the lands.
Kanefa ho mpanompony ihany izy, mba hahafantarany ny fanompoana Ahy sy ny fanompoana any amin’ ny fanjakana hafa.
9 So Shishak, king of Egypt, came up against Jerusalem and took away all the stored wealth of the house of the Lord and the king's house: he took everything away, and with the rest the gold body-covers which Solomon had made.
Dia niakatra Sisaka, mpanjakan’ i Egypta, hamely an’ i Jerosalema ka namabo ny rakitry ny tranon’ i Jehovah sy ny rakitry ny tranon’ ny mpanjaka: samy nobaboiny avokoa izy rehetra; ary nobaboiny koa ny ampinga volamena izay nataon’ i Solomona.
10 And 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.
Ary Rehoboama mpanjaka nanao ampinga varahina ho solon’ ireny ka nanolotra azy ho eo an-tànan’ ny lehiben’ ny mpiambina, izay niambina ny varavaran’ ny tranon’ ny mpanjaka.
11 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.
Ary na oviana na oviana no nidiran’ ny mpanjaka tao an-tranon’ i Jehovah, dia avy ny mpiambina naka ireo ka namerina azy ho ao an-tranon’ ny mpiambina indray.
12 And when he made himself low, the wrath of the Lord was turned back from him, and complete destruction did not come on him, for there was still some good in Judah.
Ary raha nanetry tena izy, dia niala taminy ny fahatezeran’ i Jehovah ka tsy nahalany ringana azy; sady nisy fahatsaram-panahy koa tamin’ ny Joda.
13 So King Rehoboam made himself strong in Jerusalem and was ruling there. Rehoboam was forty-one years old when he became king, and he was ruling 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; and his mother's name was Naamah, an Ammonite woman.
Ary Rehoboama mpanjaka dia nitombo hery tany Jerosalema, ka dia nanjaka; iraika amby efa-polo taona izy, fony vao nanjaka, ary fito ambin’ ny folo taona no nanjakany tany Jerosalema, ilay tanana nofidin’ i Jehovah tamin’ ny firenen’ Isiraely rehetra hampitoerany ny anarany. Ary ny anaran-dreniny dia Nama Amonita.
14 And he did evil because his heart was not true to the Lord.
Ary nanao ratsy izy, satria tsy nampiomana ny fony hitady an’ i Jehovah.
15 Now the acts of Rehoboam, first and last, are they not recorded in the words of Shemaiah the prophet and Iddo the seer? And there were wars between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all their days.
Ary ny tantaran-dRehoboama, na ny voalohany na ny farany, tsy efa voasoratra ao amin’ ny bokin’ i Semaia mpaminany sy Ido mpahita ny amin’ ny firazanana va izany? Ary niady mandrakariva Rehoboama sy Jeroboama.
16 And Rehoboam went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth in the town of David; and Abijah his son became king in his place.
Ary Rehoboama lasa nodimandry any amin’ ny razany, dia nalevina tao an-Tanànan’ i Davida izy; ary Abia zanany no nanjaka nandimby azy.
