< 2 Chronicles 11 >

1 And Roboam came to Jerusalem, and called together all the house of Juda and of Benjamin, a hundred and fourscore thousand chosen men and warriors, to fight against Israel, and to bring back his kingdom to him.
Rehooboʼaam yommuu Yerusaalem gaʼetti akka isaan Israaʼelitti duulanii Rehooboʼaamiif mootummaa deebisaniif jedhee mana Yihuudaa fi Beniyaam keessaa namoota loluu dandaʼan kuma dhibba tokkoo fi saddeettama walitti qabe.
2 And the word of the Lord came to Semeias the man of God, saying:
Garuu dubbiin Waaqayyoo kun akkana jedhee gara nama Waaqaa gara Shemaaʼiyaa ni dhufe;
3 Speak to Roboam the son of Solomon the king of Juda, and to all Israel, in Juda and Benjamin:
“Rehooboʼaam ilma Solomoon mooticha Yihuudaatii fi Israaʼeloota Yihuudaa fi Beniyaam keessa jiraatan hundaan akkana jedhi;
4 Thus saith the Lord: You shall not go up, nor fight against your brethren: let every man return to his own house, for by my will this thing has been done. And when they heard the word of the Lord, they returned, and did not go against Jeroboam,
‘Waaqayyo akkana jedha: Obboloota keessan Israaʼeloota loluudhaaf jettanii ol hin baʼinaa. Sababii wanni kun ana biraa dhufeef tokkoon tokkoon keessan gara mana keessaniitti galaa.’” Kanaafuu isaan dubbii Waaqayyootiif ajajamanii Yerobiʼaamitti duuluu dhiisanii deebiʼan.
5 And Roboam dwelt in Jerusalem, and built walled cities in Juda.
Rehooboʼaam Yerusaalem keessa jiraatee Yihuudaa keessatti immoo magaalaawwan ittisaa ni ijaarrate; isaanis:
6 And he built Bethlehem, and Etam, and Thecue,
Beetlihem, Eexaam, Teqooʼaa,
7 And Bethsur, and Socho, and Odollam,
Beet Zuuri, Sookoo, Adulaam,
8 And Geth, and Maresa, and Ziph,
Gaati, Maareeshaa, Ziif,
9 And Aduram, and Lachis, and Azecha,
Adooraayim, Laakkiish, Azeeqaa,
10 Saraa also, and Aialon, and Hebron, which are in Juda and Benjamin, well fenced cities.
Zoraa, Ayaaloonii fi Kebrooni. Isaan kunneen magaalaawwan Yihuudaa fi Beniyaam keessatti jabeeffamanii ijaaramanii dha.
11 And when he had enclosed them with walls, he put in them governors and storehouses of provisions, that is, of oil and of wine.
Innis ittisa isaanii jajjabeessee ajajjoota itti galche; nyaata, zayitii ejersaatii fi daadhii wayiniis achitti ni kuuse.
12 Moreover in every city he made an armoury of shields and spears, and he fortified them with great diligence, and he reigned over Juda, and Benjamin,
Magaalaawwan hunda keessas gaachanaa fi eeboo kaaʼee akka isaan jabaatan ni godhe. Akkasiinis Yihuudaa fi Beniyaamin kan ofii isaa godhate.
13 And the priests and Levites, that were in all Israel, came to him out of all their seats,
Luboonnii fi Lewwonni aanaalee Israaʼel hunda keessa jiraatan gara isaa goran.
14 Leaving their suburbs, and their possessions, and passing over to Juda, and Jerusalem, because Jeroboam and his sons had cast them off, from executing the priestly office to the Lord.
Sababii Yerobiʼaamii fi ilmaan isaa akka luboota Waaqayyootti isaan ilaaluu didaniif, Lewwonni lafa dheeda isaanii fi qabeenya isaanii dhiisanii gara Yihuudaa fi Yerusaalem dhufan.
15 And he made to himself priests for the high places, and for the devils, and for the calves which he had made.
Innis iddoowwan sagadaa kanneen gaarran irraatii fi fakkii waaqota tolfamoo bifa reʼee fi bifa jabbiitiin hojjete sanaaf luboota ofii isaa ni muuddate.
16 Moreover out of all the tribes of Israel, whosoever gave their heart to seek the Lord the God of Israel, came into Jerusalem to sacrifice their victims before the Lord the God of their fathers.
Warri gosoota Israaʼel hunda keessaa garaan isaanii Waaqayyo Waaqa Israaʼel bira jiru Waaqayyo Waaqa abbootii isaaniitiif aarsaa dhiʼeessuudhaaf Lewwota duukaa buʼanii Yerusaalem dhaqan.
17 And they strengthened the kingdom of Juda, and established Roboam the son of Solomon for three years: for they walked in the ways of David and of Solomon, only three years.
Isaanis mootummaa Yihuudaa jajjabeessaa waggaa sadii Rehooboʼaam ilma Solomoon ni gargaaran; isaan waggoota sadan kana keessa karaa Daawitii fi Solomoon duukaa buʼaa turaniitii.
18 And Roboam took to wife Mahalath, the daughter of Jerimoth the son of David: and Abihail the daughter of Eliab the son of Isai.
Rehooboʼaamis Maahalaati intala Yeriimooti ilma Daawitii fi Abiihaayil fuudhe; Abiihaayil kun immoo intala Eliiyaab ilma Isseey.
19 And they bore him sons Jehus, and Somorias, and Zoom.
Isheenis: Yeʼuushi, Shemaariyaa fi Zahaam deesseef.
20 And after her he married Maacha the daughter of Absalom, who bore him Abia and Ethai, and Ziza, and Salomith.
Ergasii immoo Maʼakaa intala Abesaaloom ni fuudhe; isheenis Abiyaa, Ataayi, Ziizaa fi Sheloomiit deesseef.
21 And Roboam loved Maacha the daughter of Absalom above all his wives, and concubines: for he had married eighteen wives, and threescore concubines: and he beget eight and twenty sons, and threescore daughters.
Rehooboʼaamis niitotaa isaa kaanii fi saajjatoowwan isaa caalaa Maʼakaa intala Abesaaloom ni jaallate. Innis walumatti niitota kudha saddeet, saajjatoowwan jaatama, ilmaan digdamii saddeetii fi intallan jaatama qaba ture.
22 But he put at the head of them Abia the son of Maacha to be the chief ruler over all his brethren: for he meant to make him king,
Rehooboʼaamis mootii isa gochuuf jedhee Abiyaa ilma Maʼakaa sana obboloota isaa ilmaan mootii keessaa hoogganaa godhee muude.
23 Because he was wiser and mightier than all his sons, and in all the countries of Juda, and of Benjamin, and in all the walled cities: and he gave them provisions in abundance, and he sought many wives.
Innis ogummaan ilmaan isaa keessaa tokko tokko aanaalee Yihuudaa fi Beniyaam keessa, gara magaalaawwan jabeeffamanii ijaaraman hundaatti ni erge. Ilmaan isaaf nyaata isaan gaʼu kennee niitota baayʼee illee isaan ni fuusise.
