2 Chronicles 11
1 And Rehoboam came to Jerusalem; and he assembled the house of Judah and Benjamin, a hundred and eighty thousand chosen men apt for war, to fight against Israel, that he might bring the kingdom again to Rehoboam.
Rehoboam Jerusalem a pha navah Isarelnaw a tuk teh, a uknaeram hah Rehoboam e a kut dawk bout pha sak hanelah, Judah hoi Benjamin imthung dawk e ransa 180,000 touh a pâkhueng.
2 But the word of Jehovah came to Shemaiah the man of God, saying,
Hatei Cathut e tami Shimei koevah BAWIPA e lawk ka tho e teh,
3 Speak unto Rehoboam, the son of Solomon, king of Judah, and unto all Israel in Judah and Benjamin, saying,
Judah ram hoi Benjamin ram dawk e Isarelnaw pueng koe,
4 Thus saith Jehovah: Go not up, nor fight with your brethren; return every man to his house; for this thing is from me. And they hearkened to the words of Jehovah, and returned from going against Jeroboam.
BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei, na hmaunawnghanaw tuk hanelah cet hanh awh. Abuemlah nama im lah koung ban awh leih. Bangkongtetpawiteh, hete hno teh kai ni ka tâcosak e doeh, telah dei pouh atipouh. Hottelah BAWIPA ni a dei e a tarawi awh teh, Jeroboam tuk laipalah bout a ban awh.
5 And Rehoboam dwelt in Jerusalem, and built cities for defence in Judah.
Rehoboam teh Jerusalem vah ao teh, Judah ram ring nahanelah, khopuinaw a thawng.
6 And he built Bethlehem, and Etam, and Tekoa,
Bethlehem, Etam, Tekoa,
7 and Beth-zur, and Soco, and Adullam,
Bethzur, Sokoh, Adullam,
8 and Gath, and Mareshah, and Ziph,
Gath, Mareshah, Ziph,
9 and Adoraim, and Lachish, and Azekah,
Adoraim, Lakhish, Azekah,
10 and Zorah, and Ajalon, and Hebron, which are in Judah and in Benjamin, fortified cities.
Zorah, Aijalon hoi Hebron khonaw a kangdue sak. Hote khonaw teh Judah ram hoi Benjamin ram dawk rapan ka tawn e khonaw doeh.
11 And he fortified the strongholds, and put captains in them, and stores of victuals, and of oil and wine;
Hete khonaw teh, kacakpounglah a tungdum awh teh, rapanim dawk ransabawinaw satui, misurtui hoi, lamvonnaw hawvah a hruek awh.
12 and in every several city, targets and spears, and made them exceedingly strong. And Judah and Benjamin were his.
Kho tangkuem bahling hoi tahroenaw a hruek awh teh kacakpounge kho lah a sak. Judah ram hoi Benjamin ram teh ama koe lah a kampang sak.
13 And the priests and the Levites that were in all Israel resorted to him out of all their districts;
Isarel ram dawk kaawm e vaihmanaw hoi Levihnaw teh amamouh aonae koehoi ahni koe a pâtam awh.
14 for the Levites left their suburbs and their possessions, and came to Judah and Jerusalem: for Jeroboam and his sons had cast them off from exercising the priesthood to Jehovah;
Bangkongtetpawiteh, Levihnaw ni a ram hoi a onae a tâcotakhai awh teh, Judah ram Jerusalem kho lah a cei awh. Jeroboam hoi a capanaw ni BAWIPA e vaihma thaw dawk hoi a kâhat sak awh.
15 and he ordained for himself priests for the high places, and for the he-goats and for the calves that he had made.
Hahoi, kahrai hoi sakcawp e maitotan meikaphawknaw hanelah hmuenrasang dawk vaihma thaw a tawk sak awh.
16 — And after them, those out of all the tribes of Israel that set their heart to seek Jehovah the God of Israel came to Jerusalem, to sacrifice to Jehovah the God of their fathers.
Isarel BAWIPA Cathut tawng hanelah a lungthin kapoenaw ni Isarel miphun kacetkhaie Levih miphunnaw e hnuk a kâbang awh teh, mintoenaw e BAWIPA Cathut koe thuengnae sak hanelah Jerusalem kho dawk a tho awh.
17 And they strengthened the kingdom of Judah, and made Rehoboam the son of Solomon strong three years; for during three years they walked in the way of David and Solomon.
Ahnimanaw ni Judah uknaeram a tho sak awh teh, Solomon capa Rehoboam hah kum thum touh thung a caksak awh. Kum thum touh thung Devit e lamthung hoi Solomon e lamthung a dawn awh.
18 And Rehoboam took Mahalath the daughter of Jerimoth the son of David as wife, [and of] Abihail the daughter of Eliab the son of Jesse.
Rehoboam ni Devit capa Jerimoth e canu Mahalath hoi Jesi capa Eliab e canu Abihail hah a yu lah a la.
19 And she bore him children: Jeush, and Shemariah, and Zaham.
Capa kathum touh a khe teh, Jeush, Shemariah hoi Zaham telah min a phung.
20 And after her he took Maachah the daughter of Absalom; and she bore him Abijah, and Attai, and Ziza, and Shelomith.
Hathnukkhu Absalom e canu Maakah bout a la teh, Abijah, Attai hoi Ziza a khe.
21 And Rehoboam loved Maachah the daughter of Absalom above all his wives and his concubines; for he had taken eighteen wives and sixty concubines, and he begot twenty-eight sons and sixty daughters.
Rehoboam ni a yu 18 touh, ado 60 touh a la teh, ca tongpa 28 touh, napui 60 touh a khe. Absalom e canu Maakah teh alouke a yunaw hoi adonaw hlak hoe a lungpataw.
22 And Rehoboam established Abijah the son of Maachah at the head, to be ruler among his brethren; for [he thought] to make him king.
Rehoboam ni Maakah capa Abijah teh a hmaunawnghanaw hlakvah hoe ka talue lah a hruek. Bangkongtetpawiteh, siangpahrang lah rawi hane a ngai dawk doeh.
23 And he dealt wisely, and dispersed of all his sons throughout all the lands of Judah and Benjamin, to all the fortified cities; and he gave them food in abundance. And he desired [for them] a multitude of wives.
Lungangcalah hoi kho a pouk teh, capanaw pueng hah Judah ram hoi Benjamin ram pueng dawk e rapan kaawm e khonaw dawk ao sak teh a kapek. Canei hane moikapap a hruek pouh teh, yu moikapap a tawng pouh.
