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.
Ke Tokosra Rehoboam el sun acn Jerusalem, el pangoneni siofok oalngoul tausin mwet pisrla ke mweun ke sruf lal Benjamin ac Judah. El akoo elan som mweuni sruf lun layen epang in Israel, in folokonak ku lal in leum faclos.
2 But the word of Jehovah came to Shemaiah the man of God, saying,
Tusruktu LEUM GOD El fahkang nu sel mwet palu Shemaiah
3 Speak unto Rehoboam, the son of Solomon, king of Judah, and unto all Israel in Judah and Benjamin, saying,
elan sang kas se inge nu sel Tokosra Rehoboam ac mwet nukewa in sruf lal Judah ac Benjamin:
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.
“Nik kowos som lain mwet Israel wiowos. Kowos nukewa folokla nu yen suwos an. Ma sikyak ingan ma lungse luk.” Elos akos ma LEUM GOD El sapkin, ac tia som mweunel Jeroboam.
5 And Rehoboam dwelt in Jerusalem, and built cities for defence in Judah.
Rehoboam el mutana Jerusalem ac sap in kuhlusyukyak siti in acn Judah ac Benjamin inge:
6 And he built Bethlehem, and Etam, and Tekoa,
Bethlehem, Etam, Tekoa,
7 and Beth-zur, and Soco, and Adullam,
Bethzur, Soco, Adullam,
8 and Gath, and Mareshah, and Ziph,
Gath, Mareshah, Ziph,
9 and Adoraim, and Lachish, and Azekah,
Adoraim, Lachish, Azekah,
10 and Zorah, and Ajalon, and Hebron, which are in Judah and in Benjamin, fortified cities.
Zorah, Aijalon, ac Hebron.
11 And he fortified the strongholds, and put captains in them, and stores of victuals, and of oil and wine;
El oru tuh siti inge in arulana ku, ac el sulela kais sie mwet kol fulat nu in kais sie siti, ac supwala pac mwe mongo ac oil in olive ac wain nu in siti inge nukewa,
12 and in every several city, targets and spears, and made them exceedingly strong. And Judah and Benjamin were his.
ac oayapa mwe loang ac osra. Ouinge el sruokya na acn Judah ac Benjamin in oan ye ku lal.
13 And the priests and the Levites that were in all Israel resorted to him out of all their districts;
Mwet tol ac mwet Levi tuku liki acn nukewa Israel nu Judah in acn eir.
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;
Mwet Levi elos sisla ima lalos ac acn saya pac selos, ac som nu Judah ac Jerusalem, mweyen Tokosra Jeroboam lun Israel ac mwet kol tokol elos tia lela elos in oru orekma in mwet tol lun LEUM GOD.
15 and he ordained for himself priests for the high places, and for the he-goats and for the calves that he had made.
Jeroboam el srisrngiya mwet tol lal sifacna, in orekma ke nien alu lun mwet pegan, oayapa elos in alu nu sin demon ac ma sruloala ma el orala in oana luman cow mukul.
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.
Mwet ke kais sie sruf lun Israel su kena yohk in alu nu sin LEUM GOD lun Israel elos wi mwet Levi som nu Jerusalem, tuh elos in ku in orek kisa nu sin LEUM GOD lun papa tumalos.
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.
Ma se inge akkeye tokosrai lun Judah, ac ke yac tolu mwet inge elos akkeyal Rehoboam, wen natul Solomon, ac elos moul oana ke elos moul ye koko lal Tokosra David ac Tokosra Solomon.
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 el payukyak sel Mahalath, su papa tumal pa Jerimoth wen natul David, ac nina kial pa Abihail, acn natul Eliab su nutin natul Jesse.
19 And she bore him children: Jeush, and Shemariah, and Zaham.
Oasr wen tolu natultal: Jeush, Shemariah, ac Zaham.
20 And after her he took Maachah the daughter of Absalom; and she bore him Abijah, and Attai, and Ziza, and Shelomith.
Tok kutu el payukyak sel Maacah, acn natul Absalom, ac oasr wen akosr natultal: Abijah, Attai, Ziza, ac Shelomith.
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.
Oasr mutan singoul oalkosr kial, ac mutan kulansap onngoul kial, ac el papa tumun wen longoul oalkosr ac acn onngoul. Inmasrlon mutan kial ac mutan kulansap kial, el lungse yohk Maacah.
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.
El kuloel Abijah, wen natul Maacah, yohk liki nukewa wen natul saya, ac el sulella mu el pa ac aolul in tokosra.
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.
Rehoboam el lalmwetmet ke el sang orekma kunen wen natul inge, ac oakelosi ke siti nukewa ma el kuhlasak in acn Judah ac Benjamin. Pukanten ma el sang nu selos, ac el oayapa sulela mutan pus kialos.
