1 Kings 12
1 Then Rehoboam went to Shechem. For in that place, all of Israel had gathered to appoint him as king.
Ary Rehoboama nankany Sekema, fa tany no efa nalehan’ ny Isiraely rehetra hampanjaka azy.
2 Yet truly, Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, while he was still in Egypt as a fugitive from the face of king Solomon, hearing of his death, returned from Egypt.
Koa raha nandre izany Jeroboama, zanak’ i Nebata (fa izy mbola tany Egypta, izay nalehany tamin’ izy nandositra niala teo anatrehan’ i Solomona mpanjaka;
3 And they sent and called him. Therefore, Jeroboam went, with the entire multitude of Israel, and they spoke to Rehoboam, saying:
ka dia naniraka naka azy ny olona), dia tonga izy sy ny fiangonana, dia ny Isiraely rehetra, ka niteny tamin-dRehoboama hoe:
4 “Your father imposed a very harsh yoke upon us. And so, you should now take away a little from the very harsh rule of your father and from his very grievous yoke, which he imposed upon us, and we will serve you.”
Rainao dia nampitondra zioga mavesatra anay, fa inty kosa mby aminao ka mba hamaivano ny fanompoana mafy tamin-drainao sy ny zioga mavesatra izay nataony taminay, dia hanompo anao izahay.
5 And he said to them, “Go away, until the third day, and then return to me.” And when the people had gone away,
Fa hoy kosa izy taminy: Mandehana aloha, ka raha afaka hateloana, dia mankanesa atỳ amiko indray. Dia lasa ny olona.
6 king Rehoboam took counsel with the elders who had assisted before his father Solomon while he was still living. And he said, “What counsel do you give to me, so that I may respond to this people?”
Ary Rehoboama mpanjaka naka hevitra tamin’ ny zoki-olona izay nitoetra teo anatrehan’ i Solomona rainy fony fahavelony ka nanao hoe: Ahoana no hevitra omenareo havaly ny vahoaka?
7 They said to him, “If today you will obey and serve this people, and yield to their petition, and if you will speak lenient words to them, they will be your servants for all days.”
Dia hoy ireo taminy: Raha mety ho mpanompon’ ny vahoaka ianao izao ka hanompo azy sy hanao teny mora aminy, dia ho mpanomponao mandrakizay izy.
8 But he abandoned the counsel of the old men, which they had given to him. And he consulted the young men who had been raised with him, and who were assisting him.
Nefa nolavin-dRehoboama ny hevitra nomen’ ireo zoki-olona azy, dia naka hevitra tamin’ ny tovolahy izay indray nihira taminy sady efa nitoetra teo anatrehany izy
9 And he said to them: “What counsel do you give to me, so that I may respond to this people, who have said to me: ‘Make light the yoke that your father imposed on us?’”
ka nanao taminy hoe: Ahoana kosa no mba hevitra omenareo havalintsika ny vahoaka izay efa niteny tamiko hoe: Hamaivano ny zioga izay nataon-drainao taminay
10 And the young men who had been raised with him, said: “You shall speak in this way to this people, who have spoken to you, saying: ‘Your father weighed down our yoke. You should relieve us.’ You shall say this to them: ‘My little finger is thicker than the back of my father.
Ary ireo tovolahy indray nihira taminy nanao taminy hoe: Izao no lazao amin’ ny vahoaka izay niteny taminao hoe: Rainao nampitondra zioga mavesatra anay; fa inty kosa mby aminao ka mba hamaivano aminay izany, izao no lazao aminy: Ny ankihikeliko dia lehibe noho ny valahan’ ny raiko;
11 And now, my father placed a heavy yoke upon you, but I will add more upon your yoke. My father cut you with whips, but I will beat you with scorpions.’”
koa raha nampitondra zioga mavesatra anareo ny raiko, izaho kosa dia mainka hanampy ny zioga ho entinareo; kotopia no namaizan’ ny raiko anareo, fa maingoka fikapohana kosa no hamaizako anareo.
12 Therefore, Jeroboam and all the people went to Rehoboam on the third day, just as the king had spoken, saying, “Return to me on the third day.”
Ary Jeroboama sy ny vahoaka rehetra nankany amin-dRehoboama tamin’ ny andro fahatelo, araka ilay nolazain’ ny mpanjaka hoe: Mankanesa atỳ amiko indray amin’ ny andro fahatelo.
13 And the king responded to the people harshly, leaving behind the counsel of the elders that they had given to him.
Ary ny mpanjaka nanao teny mafy tamin’ ny olona, fa nandà ny saina nomen’ ireo zoki-olona azy izy
14 And he spoke to them according to the counsel of the young men, saying: “My father weighed down your yoke, but I will add more to your yoke. My father cut you with whips, but I will beat you with scorpions.”
ka niteny taminy araka ny hevitra nomen’ ireo tovolahy hoe: Ny raiko dia nampitondra zioga mavesatra anareo, fa izaho kosa mainka hanampy ny zioga ho entinareo, kotopia no namazain’ ny raiko anareo, fa maingoka fikapohana kosa no hamaizako anareo.
15 And the king did not acquiesce to the people. For the Lord had turned him away, so that he might raise up his word, which he had spoken by the hand of Ahijah, the Shilonite, to Jeroboam, the son of Nebat.
Koa dia tsy nihaino ny olona ny mpanjaka; fa avy tamin’ i Jehovah izany zavatra izany hahatanteraka ny teniny izay nampilazainy an’ i Ahia Silonita tamin’ i Jeroboama, zanak’ i Nebata.
16 And so the people, seeing that the king had not been willing to listen to them, responded to him, saying: “What part do we have in David? Or what inheritance do we have in the son of Jesse? Go to your own tents, O Israel. Now David, see to your own house.” And Israel went away to their own tents.
Ary nony hitan’ ny Isiraely rehetra fa tsy nihaino azy ny mpanjaka, dia namaly ny mpanjaka ny vahoaka ka nanao hoe: Inona moa no anjaranay amin’ i Davida? Tsy manana lova amin’ ny zanak’ i Jese izahay; samia mody any an-dainy avy, ry Isiraely e; ankehitriny tandremo ny taranakao, ry Davida ô. Dia samy nody ho any an-dainy avy ny Isiraely.
17 But over all the sons of Israel who were living in the cities of Judah, Rehoboam reigned.
Fa ny Zanak’ Isiraely izay nonina tany an-tanànan’ ny Joda ihany no nanjakan-dRehoboama.
18 Then king Rehoboam sent Adoram, who was over the tribute. And all of Israel stoned him, and he died. Therefore, king Rehoboam hurrying, climbed into the chariot, and fled to Jerusalem.
Ary dia naniraka an’ i Adorama, komandin’ ny mpanao fanompoana, Rehoboama mpanjaka, nefa ny Isiraely rehetra nitora-bato azy, ka maty izy. Dia niezaka faingana nankeo amin’ ny kalesiny Rehoboama mpanjaka handositra ho any Jerosalema.
19 And Israel drew away from the house of David, even to the present day.
Ka dia niodina tamin’ ny taranak’ i Davida ny Isiraely mandraka androany.
20 And it happened that, when all of Israel had heard that Jeroboam had returned, gathering an assembly, they sent and called him, and they appointed him as king over all of Israel. And no one followed the house of David, except the tribe of Judah alone.
Ary rehefa ren’ ny Isiraely rehetra fa efa tafaverina indray Jeroboama, dia naniraka naka azy ho ao amin’ ny fivoriana izy ka nampanjaka azy tamin’ ny Isiraely rehetra; dia tsy nisy nanaraka ny taranak’ i Davida afa-tsy ny firenen’ i Joda ihany.
21 Then Rehoboam went to Jerusalem, and he gathered together the entire house of Judah, and the tribe of Benjamin, one hundred and eighty thousand elect men of war, so that they might fight against the house of Israel, and might bring the kingdom back to Rehoboam, the son of Solomon.
Ary nony tonga tany Jerosalema Rehoboama, dia novoriny ny taranak’ i Joda rehetra mbamin’ ny firenen’ i Benjamina, dia miaramila valo alina amby iray hetsy voafantina, hiady amin’ ny taranak’ Isiraely hampody ny fanjakana indray ho an-dRehoboama, zanak’ i Solomona.
22 But the word of the Lord came to Shemaiah, the man of God, saying:
Kanjo tonga tamin’ i Semaia, lehilahin’ Andriamanitra, kosa ny tenin’ Andriamanitra nanao hoe
23 “Speak to Rehoboam, the son of Solomon, the king of Judah, and to all the house of Judah, and to Benjamin, and to the rest of the people, saying:
Mitenena amin-dRehoboama, zanak’ i Solomona, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, sy amin’ ny taranak’ i Joda sy Benjamina rehetra ary amin’ ny vahoaka sisa hoe:
24 ‘Thus says the Lord: You shall not go up, and you shall not make war against your brothers, the sons of Israel. Let each man return to his own house. For this word came from me.’” And they listened to the word of the Lord, and they returned from the journey, as the Lord had instructed them.
Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Aza mandeha hiady amin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely rahalahinareo; fa samia mody any an-tranony avy ianareo, fa avy amiko izao zavatra izao. Dia nihaino ny tenin’ i Jehovah ny olona, ka dia samy lasa nody araka ny tenin’ i Jehovah.
25 Then Jeroboam built up Shechem, on mount Ephraim, and he lived there. And departing from there, he built up Penuel.
Ary Jeroboama dia nanamboatra an’ i Sekema any amin’ ny tany havoan’ i Efraima ka nonina tao; ary raha avy tao izy, dia nanamboatra an’ i Pehoela koa.
26 And Jeroboam said in his heart: “Now the kingdom will return to the house of David,
Ary Jeroboama nanao anakampo hoe: Izao ny fanjakana dia hody amin’ ny taranak’ i Davida ihany;
27 if this people ascend to offer sacrifices in the house of the Lord at Jerusalem. And the heart of this people will be converted to their lord Rehoboam, the king of Judah, and they will put me to death, and return to him.”
fa raha miakatra hamono zavatra hatao fanatitra ao amin’ ny tranon’ i Jehovah any Jerosalema ny vahoaka, dia hody amin’ ny tompony indray ny fony dia amin-dRehoboama, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, ary dia hamono ahy izy ka hiverina any amin-dRehoboama, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, indray.
28 And devising a plan, he made two golden calves. And he said to them: “No longer choose to ascend to Jerusalem. Behold, these are your gods, O Israel, who led you away from the land of Egypt!”
Dia nihevitra ny mpanjaka ka nanao ombilahy kely volamena roa; ary hoy izy tamin’ ny olona: “Aoka izay ny fiakaranareo any Jerosalema! Ry Isiraely ô” indreo ny andriamanitrao, izay nitondra anao nivoaka avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta.
29 And he stationed one in Bethel, and the other in Dan.
Ary ny anankiray dia napetrany tao Betela, fa ny anankiray kosa dia tao Dana.
30 And this word became an occasion of sin. For the people went to adore the calf, even to Dan.
Ary izany zavatra izany dia tonga fahotana; fa ny olona dia nandeha hivavaha teo anatrehan’ ny anankiray amin’ ireo hatrany Dana.
31 And he made shrines on the high places, and he made priests out of the lowest people, who were not of the sons of Levi.
Ary nanao trano teny amin’ ny fitoerana avo izy sady nanendry olona hafa ho mpisorona, izay tsy isan’ ny taranak’ i Levy.
32 And he appointed a solemn day in the eighth month, on the fifteenth day of the month, in imitation of the solemnity that was celebrated in Judah. And ascending to the altar, he acted similarly in Bethel, so that he immolated to the calves, which he had made. And in Bethel, he appointed priests of the high places, which he had made.
Ary Jeroboama, nanendry andro firavoravoana tamin’ ny andro fahadimy ambin’ ny folo amin’ ny volana fahavalo, tahaka ny andro firavoravoana tamin’ ny Joda ihany, ka nanatitra fanatitra teo ambonin’ ny alitara izy. Toy izany no nataony tao Betela, fa namono zavatra hatao fanatitra ho an’ ireo ombilahy kely izay nataony izy; ary nampitoeriny tao Betela ireo mpisorona amin’ ny fitoerana avo izay notendreny.
33 And he ascended to the altar, which he had raised up in Bethel, on the fifteenth day of the eighth month, the day that he had decided in his own heart. And he made a solemnity to the sons of Israel, and he ascended to the altar, so that he might burn incense.
Ary nanatitra fanatitra teo ambonin’ ny alitara izay nataony tao Betela izy tamin’ ny andro fahadimy ambin’ ny folo amin’ ny volana fahavalo, volana izay notendreny araka ny sitrapony ihany; ary nanao andro firavoravoana ho an’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely izy sady nanatitra fanatitra teo ambonin’ ny alitara sy nandoro ditin-kazo manitra.
