Chronicles II 10
1 And Roboam came to Sychem: for all Israel came to Sychem to make him king.
Israel pum loh Rehoboam te manghai sak ham Shekhem la a caeh uh dongah amah khaw Shekhem la cet.
2 And it came to pass when Jeroboam the son of Nabat heard [it], (now he was in Egypt, forasmuch as he had fled thither from the face of king Solomon, and Jeroboam dwelt in Egypt, ) that Jeroboam returned out of Egypt.
Te tla a om te Nebat capa Jeroboam loh a yaak. Te vaengah anih te Solomon manghai mikhmuh lamloh Egypt la yong dae Jeroboam te Egypt lamloh mael.
3 And they sent and called him: and Jeroboam and all the congregation came to Roboam, saying,
Te dongah amah te a tah uh tih a khue uh. Te phoeiah Jeroboam neh Israel pum te cet uh tih Rehoboam te a voek uh.
4 Thy father made our yoke grievous: now then abate [somewhat] of thy father's grievous rule, and of his heavy yoke which he put upon us, and we will serve thee.
Te vaengah, “Na pa loh kaimih kah hnamkun he khak a siing coeng dae na pa mangkhak kah thothuengnah neh a hnamkun a rhih kaimih soah a tloeng te hlawt mai lamtah nang taengah ka tho ka tat bitni,” a ti nauh.
5 And he said to them, Go away for three days, and [then] come to me. So the people departed.
Te vaengah amih te, “Hnin thum a poeng phoeiah, kai taengla ha mael uh,” a ti nah tih pilnam te cet.
6 And king Roboam assembled the elders that stood before his father Solomon in his life-time, saying, How do ye counsel [me] to return an answer to this people?
Te vaengah manghai Rehoboam loh a napa Solomon amah a hingnah a om vaengah a mikhmuh kah aka pai patong rhoek te a dawt tih, “He pilnam taengah ol mael ham te nangmih loh balae nan uen eh?,” a ti nah.
7 And they spoke to him, saying, If thou wouldest this day befriend this people, and be kind to them, and speak to them good words, then will they be thy servants for ever.
Te vaengah anih te a voek uh tih, “Pilnam taengah he a then la na om tih amih taengah na moei a then atah amih te ol then thui pah. Namah tue khuiah tah na taengah sal la om uh bitni,” a ti nauh.
8 But he forsook the advice of the old men, who took counsel with him, and he took counsel with the young men who had been brought up with him, who stood before him.
Tedae anih taengah a paek patong rhoek kah cilsuep te a hnoo tih camoe rhoek te a dawt. Te rhoek tah amah neh pantai uh tih a mikhmuh ah pai uh.
9 And he said to them, What do ye advise that I should answer this people, who spoke to me, saying, Ease [somewhat] of the yoke which thy father laid upon us?
Te phoeiah amih te, “Pilnam he ol ka mael ham te nangmih loh metlam na poek uh. Amih loh kai taengah a thui uh tih, 'Na pa loh kaimih soah a tloeng hnamkun te hlawt laeh,’ a ti uh,” a ti nah.
10 And the young men that had been brought up with him spoke to him, saying, Thus shalt thou speak to the people that spoke to thee, saying, Thy father made our yoke heavy, and do thou lighten [somewhat of it] from us; thus shalt thou say, My little finger [shall be] thicker than my father's loins.
Te dongah anih te amah neh aka pantai camoe rhoek loh a voek tih, “Pilnam te he he thui pah, amih a nang taengah aka cal uh tih, 'Na pa loh kaimih kah hnamkun he a siing dae namah loh kaimih dong lamkah he hlawt laeh,’ aka ti uh. Amih te, 'Kai kah kutca he a pa kah cinghen lakah putsut pueng.
11 And whereas my father chastised you with a heavy yoke, I will also add to your yoke: my father chastised you with whips, and I will chastise you with scorpions.
Te dongah a pa loh nangmih soah hnamkun a rhih han tloeng coeng. Tedae kai loh nangmih kah hnamkun te kang khoep ni. A pa loh nangmih te rhuihet neh n'toel dae kai tah saelkhui ta-ai neh kan toel ni,'ti nah,” a ti uh.
12 And Jeroboam and all the people came to Roboam on the third day, as the king had spoken, saying, Return to me on the third day.
Te dongah manghai loh, “A hnin thum dongah kai taengla ha mael uh,” a ti nah tih a thui pah bangla a hnin thum dongah tah Jeroboam neh pilnam boeih te Rehoboam taengla mael tangloeng.
13 And the king answered harshly; and king Roboam forsook the counsel of the old men,
Tedae amih te manghai loh kalh a voek tih manghai Rehoboam loh patong rhoek kah cilsuep te a hnawt.
14 and spoke to them according to the counsel of the young men, saying, My father made your yoke heavy, but I will add to it: my father chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.
Te vaengah amih te camoe rhoek kah cilsuep bangla a voek tih, “Nangmih kah hnamkun te kan siing vetih kamah loh te te kang koei ni. A pa loh nangmih te rhuihet neh n'toel dae kai tah saelkhui ta-ai neh kan toel ni,” a ti nah.
15 And the king hearkened not to the people, for there was a change [of their minds] from God, saying, The Lord has confirmed his word, which he spoke by the hand of Achia the Selonite concerning Jeroboam the son of Nabat, and [concerning] all Israel;
Manghai loh pilnam kah ol a hnatun na pawt khaw amah BOEIPA kah ol pai sak hamla Pathen taeng lamkah nuencennah la a om dongah ni. Nebat capa Jeroboam ham te Shiloh Ahijah kut ah a thui coeng.
16 for the king did not hearken to them. And the people answered the king, saying, What portion have we in David, or inheritance in the son of Jessae? to thy tents, O Israel: now see to thine own house, David. So all Israel went to their tents.
Amih ol te manghai loh a hnatun pawt khaw Israel pum loh a ming. Te dongah pilnam loh manghai te a mael thil tih, “David khuiah khoyo te kaimih ham ba lam nim? Israel nang dap kah hlang te Jesse koca khuiah a rho a om pai moenih. David aw namah kah imkhui so laeh,” a ti uh. Te phoeiah Israel pum te amah dap la cet.
17 But the men of Israel, even those who dwelt in the cities of Juda, [remained] and made Roboam king over them.
Tedae Israel ca rhoek tah Judah khopuei rhoek ah kho a sak uh tih amih soah Rehoboam manghai.
18 And king Roboam sent to them Adoniram that was over the tribute; and the children of Israel stoned him with stones, and he died. And king Roboam hasted to mount [his] chariot, to flee to Jerusalem.
Te vaengah manghai Rehoboam loh Hadoram te saldong boei la a tueih hatah anih te Israel ca rhoek loh lungto neh a dae uh tih duek. Tedae manghai Rehoboam te leng dongla luei hatlat tih Jerusalem la rhaelrham.
19 So Israel rebelled against the house of David until this day.
Te tlam ni tahae khohnin hil Israel loh David imkhui taengah boe a koek uh.
