2 Chronicles 10
1 Now Rehoboam set out for Shechem. For in that place all of Israel had convened, so that they might appoint him as king.
Israel kaminawk boih mah Rehoboam to siangpahrang ah suek han caeh o boeh pongah, anih doeh Shekem ah caeh toeng.
2 But when Jeroboam, the son of Nabat, who was in Egypt, (indeed he had fled to that place from Solomon) had heard it, he promptly returned.
Solomon siangpahrang khae hoi Izip prae ah kacawn ving, Nebat capa Jeroboam mah to tamthang to thaih naah, Jeroboam loe Izip prae hoiah amlaem let.
3 And they summoned him, and he arrived with all of Israel. And they spoke to Rehoboam, saying:
Israel kaminawk mah anih khaeah kami to patoeh moe, kawksak pongah, anih loe kaminawk hoi nawnto Rehoboam khaeah caeh moe, anih khaeah,
4 “Your father pressed upon us a very difficult yoke. You should govern us more lightly than your father, who imposed on us a heavy servitude, and so lift up some of the burden, so that we may serve you.”
Nam pa mah kaicae hanah kazit hmuen ang phawsak; to pongah nam pa khaeah ka sak o ih karai parai tok hoi anih mah kaicae ang phawhsak ih kazit hmuen to anghoepsak lai ah; to tiah nahaeloe na tok to kang sak pae o han, tiah a naa o.
5 But he said, “Return to me after three days.” And when the people had gone away,
Rehoboam mah nihcae khaeah, Ni thumto pacoengah kai khae angzo o let ah, tiah a naa. Kaminawk loe amlaem o.
6 he took counsel with the elders, who had stood before his father Solomon while he was still living, saying, “What counsel would you give to me, so that I may respond to the people?”
Rehoboam siangpahrang mah, ampa Solomon hing naah, anih ih toksah kacoehtanawk khaeah, Hae kaminawk hae kawbangmaw ka pathim han, tiah poekhaih nang paek o thai han maw? tiah a naa.
7 And they said to him, “If you please this people, and if you soothe them with words of clemency, they will be your servants for all days.”
To ih kaminawk mah, Hae kaminawk nuiah tahmenhaih na tawnh moe, nihcae palung anghoehaih lok na thuih pae nahaeloe, nihcae loe nang ih tamna ah ni om o poe tih, tiah a naa o.
8 But he set aside the counsel of the elders, and he began to have discussion with the youth, who had been raised with him and who were among his companions.
Toe Rehoboam loe kacoehtanawk mah paek ih kahoih poekhaih to talawk ai ah, angmah hoi nawnto qoeng tahang ampuinawk ih lok to tahngai lat.
9 And he said to them: “How does it seem to you? Or how should I respond to this people, who have said to me, ‘Lift up the yoke that your father imposed upon us?’”
Anih mah to kaminawk khaeah, Hae kaminawk mah nam pa mah kaicae han phawhsak ih kazit hmuen to anghoepsak lai ah, tiah ang naa o pongah, nihcae ih lok to kawbangmaw ka pathim han, poekhaih nang paek o thai tih maw? tiah a naa.
10 But they responded like youths, having been raised with him in luxury, and they said: “So shall you speak to the people, who said to you, ‘Your father made our yoke heavy; you should lighten it,’ and so shall you respond to them: ‘My little finger is thicker than the back of my father.
Anih hoi nawnto qoeng tahang kaminawk mah, anih khaeah, Nang khaeah, nam pa mah kaicae han phawhsak ih kazit hmuen anghoepsak lai ah, tiah kathui kaminawk khaeah, Ka banca loe pa ih kaengkaeh pongah thah kue.
11 My father imposed a heavy yoke upon you, and I will place more weight upon it. My father cut you with whips; truly, I will beat you with scorpions.’”
Pa mah ang phawh o sak ih kazit hmuen pongah kazit kue hmuen to kang phawh o sak han; pa mah quiboeng hoiah ang boh o, kaimah loe sataai hoiah kang boh o han, tiah thui paeh, tiah a naa o.
12 Then Jeroboam, and the entire people, went to Rehoboam on the third day, just as he had instructed them.
Siangpahrang mah, Ni thumto pacoengah angzo o let ah, tiah thuih ih lok baktih toengah, Jeroboam hoi anih kaminawk boih loe, Rehoboam khaeah caeh o let.
13 And the king responded harshly, abandoning the counsel of the elders.
Siangpahrang loe kacoehtanawk mah paek ih kahoih poekhaih to la ai pongah, nihcae to lok kaham hoiah pathim,
14 And he spoke according to the will of the youths: “My father imposed a heavy yoke upon you, which I will make heavier. My father cut you with whips; truly, I will beat you with scorpions.”
thendoengnawk mah paek ih poekhaih baktih toengah, Kam pa mah kazit hmuen ang phawh o sak, toe kai mah loe hmuen kazit kang thap o aep han; kam pa mah quiboeng hoiah ang boh o, kai mah loe sataai hoiah kang boh o han, tiah a naa.
15 And he did not acquiesce to the pleadings of the people. For it was the will of God that his word be fulfilled, which he had spoken by the hand of Ahijah, the Shilonite, to Jeroboam, the son of Nabat.
Tipongah maw siangpahrang mah kaminawk ih lok tahngai pae ai tih nahaeloe, Sithaw mah Shiloh acaeng Ahijah patohhaih rang hoiah Nebat capa Jeroboam khaeah thuih ih Angraeng ih lok akoep han ih ni to tiah oh.
16 Then the entire people, speaking more harshly to the king, spoke to him in this way: “There is no portion for us in David, and there is no inheritance in the son of Jesse. Return to your dwellings, O Israel. Then you, O David, shall pasture your own house.” And Israel went away to their dwellings.
Siangpahrang mah nihcae ih lok tahngai pae ai, tiah Israel kaminawk boih mah panoek o naah, siangpahrang khaeah, David khaeah taham timaw ka tawnh o vop, Jesse capa khaeah qawktoep han koi tidoeh ka tawn o ai, Aw Israel acaengnawk, nangmacae ohhaih ahmuen ah amlaem o ah, David, nangmah ih im to nangmah khenzawn ah, tiah a naa o. To pongah Israel kaminawk loe angmacae ohhaih ahmuen ah amlaem o boih.
17 But Rehoboam reigned over the sons of Israel who were living in the cities of Judah.
Toe Judah vangpuinawk thungah kaom Israel acaengnawk loe Rehoboam mah uk.
18 And king Rehoboam sent Aduram, who was in charge of the tributes. And the sons of Israel stoned him, and he died. And so king Rehoboam hurried to climb into the chariot, and he fled to Jerusalem.
Siangpahrang Rehoboam mah tamut cong hanah Hadoram to patoeh naah, Israel acaengnawk mah anih to thlung hoiah vah o mat; toe siangpahrang Rehoboam angmah to loe angmah ih hrangleeng thungah karangah akun moe, Jerusalem ah cawnh ving.
19 And Israel withdrew from the house of David, even to this day.
To pongah vaihni ni khoek to Israel kaminawk mah David imthung takoh to misatuk o.
