1 Kings 12
1 Rehoboam went to Shechem because that is where the whole of Israel had gone to make him king.
Isala: ili ga (north) fi dunu huluane da Lihouboua: me hina bagade hamomusa: , Siegeme moilaiga gilisila misi. Lihouboua: me da amoga asi.
2 Jeroboam, son of Nebat, was still in Egypt when he heard about this. (He had run away to Egypt to escape from King Solomon and was living there.)
Be Yelouboua: me (Niba: de egefe-e da Soloumaneba: le Idibidi sogega hobea: i) e da amo hou nababeba: le, Idibidi soge fisili, buhagi.
3 The Israelite leaders sent for him. Jeroboam and the whole assembly of Israelites went to talk with Rehoboam.
Isala: ili ga (north) fi huluane da e ilima misa: ne sia: na asi. Amalalu, ilia da gilisili Lihouboua: mema asili, amane sia: i,
4 “Your father placed a heavy burden on us,” they told him. “But now if you lighten the load when we served your father and the heavy demands he put on us, we will serve you.”
“Dia ada Soloumane da ninima gasa fili hamobeba: le, ninia dioi bagade nabasu. Di da amo gasa fili olelesu hou fisili, amola ninia dioi hagilisisia, amola nini asabole esaloma: ne hamosea, ninia da dima molole fa: no bobogemu.”
5 Rehoboam answered, “Go away and come back in three days time.” So the people left.
Lihouboua: me da bu adole i, “Eso udiana esalu, bu masea, na da dilima bu adole imunu.” Amaiba: le, ilia da fisili asi.
6 King Rehoboam asked for advice from the elders who had served his father Solomon when he was alive. “How do you advise me to reply to these people about this?” he asked.
Hina bagade Lihouboua: me da asigilai dunu (amo da musa: ea ada Soloumane ea fada: i sia: fidisu dunu) ilima amane adole ba: i, “Dilia adi dawa: bela: ? Na da amo dunuma adi adole ima: bela: ?”
7 They replied, “If you are a servant to these people today, if you serve them and answer them, by speaking kindly to them, they will always serve you.”
Ilia amane adole i, “Di da amo dunu fi noga: le fidimusa: dawa: sea, di ilia adole ba: su amoma asigiwane bu adole ima. Amasea ilia da eso huluane dima molole hawa: hamomu.”
8 But Rehoboam dismissed the advice of the elders. He instead asked advice from the young men who he had grown up with, and who were close to him.
Be Lihouboua: me da asigilai dunu, ilia fada: i sia: hame nabi. Be amomane e da ayeligi dunu e ili gilisili asigilai, ilia sia: fawane nabi. Bai e da ayeligi dunu ili amo ea fada: i sia: fidisu dunu hamoi.
9 He asked them, “What response do you advise that we send back to these people who have told me, ‘Lighten the burden your father put on us’?”
E da ilima amane adole ba: i, “Dilia da nama adi hamoma: ne sia: sala: ? Amo dunu ilia da nama, ilia asabole esaloma: ne hamoma: ne sia: daha. Na da ilima adi sia: ma: bela: ?”
10 The young men who he had grown up with told him, “This is what you have to tell these people who said to you, ‘Your father made our burden heavy, but you should make it lighter.’ This is what you should answer them: ‘My little finger is thicker than my father's waist!
Ilia da bu adole i, “Di ilima amane adole ima, ‘Dilia da na ada da gasa fili hamosu dawa: sala: ? Hame mabu! Na lobo sogo fonobahadi ea defei da na ada ea buluga: su dedei amo baligisa.’
11 My father placed a heavy burden on you, and I will make it even heavier. My father punished you with whips; I will punish you with scorpions.’”
Amola ilima eno adole ima, ‘Dafawane! Na ada da dili dioi bagade nabima: ne hamoi. Be na da dioi bagade baligili dilima imunu. Na ada da dili fegasu efe amoga fai. Be na da fegasu efe bagadedafa amoga dili famu!’”
12 Three days later, Jeroboam and all the people returned to Rehoboam, because the king had told them, “Come back in three days time.”
Eso udiana baligili, Yelouboua: me amola dunu huluane, hina bagade Lihouboua: me ea hamoma: ne sia: i defele, ema sinidigi.
13 The king answered the people sharply. Dismissing the advice of the elders,
Lihouboua: me da asigilai dunu ilia fada: i sia: mae dawa: le, dunu huluane ilima gasa fili sia: i.
14 he replied using the advice of the young men. He said, “My father placed a heavy burden on you, and I will make it even heavier. My father punished you with whips; I will punish you with scorpions.”
E da ayeligi ilia fada: i sia: defele sia: i. E amane sia: i. “Dilia da na ada da gasa fili hamosu dawa: sala: ? Hame mabu! Na lobo sogo fonobahadi ea gadugagi defei da na ada ea buluga: su gadugagi defei amo baligisa. Dafawane! Na ada da dili dioi bagade nabima: ne hamoi. Be na da dioi bagade baligili dilima imunu. Na ada da dili fegasu efe amoga fai. Be na da bulamagau sesema: ne fegasu efe bagadedafa amoga dili famu!’”
15 The king did not listen to what the people said, for this change in circumstances was from the Lord, to fulfill what the Lord had told Jeroboam son of Nebat through Ahijah the Shilonite.
Hina Gode Ea hanaiga, hou amo E da Siailou balofede dunu Abaidia ea lafidili amo Yelouboua: me (Niba: de egefe) ema sia: i, amo doaga: i dagoi ba: i. Hina bagade Lihouboua: me da dunu fi ilima gasa fili hamoi, amo ea bai da goea.
16 When all the Israelites saw that the king wasn't listening to them, they told the king: “What share do we have in David, and what part do we have in the son of Jesse? Go home, Israel! You're on your own, house of David!” So all the Israelites went home.
Dunu huluane da hina bagade da ilia sia: nabimu higa: i, amo ba: beba: le, ilia da amane halale sia: i, “Da: ibidi amola ea sosogo fi fisiagama! Ilia da nini hamedafa fidisu! Isala: ili dunu! Ninia da afia: la: di! Lihouboua: me hisu ouligima: ma!” Isala: ili dunu da amanewane odoga: i.
17 However, Rehoboam still ruled over the Israelites who lived in Judah.
Amola Lihouboua: me da dunu fi Yuda soge ganodini, amo fawane ouligimu ba: i.
18 Then King Rehoboam sent out Hadoram, who was in charge of forced labor, but the Israelites stoned him to death. King Rehoboam quickly jumped into his chariot and raced back to Jerusalem.
Amalalu, hina bagade Lihouboua: me da udigili sesei hawa: hamosu dunu ilia ouligisu dunu A: dounaila: me amo Isala: ili dunuma asunasi. Be ilia da e igiga gala: le legei. Amo ba: beba: le, Lihouboua: me da ea ‘sa: liode’ amo da: iya fila heda: le, Yelusaleme moilai bai bagadega hobeale asi.
19 As a result, Israel has been in rebellion against the house of David to this day.
Amo eso fa: no, Isala: ili ga (north) fi dunu da Da: ibidi ea ouligisu sosogo fi ilima lelele esalu.
20 When all the Israelites heard that Jeroboam had returned, they sent for him, summoning him to the assembly and made him king over all Israel. Only the tribe of Judah was left to the house of David.
Isala: ili dunu, Yelouboua: me da Idibidiga esalu buhagi, amo nababeba: le, ilia da e ilia gilisili fada: i sia: su amoga misa: ne hiougi. Amola ilia da e Isala: ili hina bagade hamoi. Be Yuda fi dunu, ilia fawane da Da: ibidi ea fi ilima fa: no bobogei.
21 When Rehoboam arrived in Jerusalem, he gathered the men from the households of Judah and Benjamin— 180,000 chosen warriors—to go and fight against Israel to bring the kingdom back to Rehoboam, son of Solomon.
Lihouboua: me da Yelusaleme moilai bai bagadega doaga: loba, e da baligili noga: i dadi gagui dunu 180,000 agoane, amo Yuda amola Bediamini fi ilima gilisi. E da gegene, bu ga (north) Isala: ili fi ili bu ouligimusa: dawa: i.
22 But a message from the Lord came to Shemaiah the man of God that said,
Be Gode da ba: la: lusu dunu (balofede) Siema: ia ema amane sia: i,
23 “Tell Rehoboam, son of Solomon, king of Judah, to Judah and Benjamin, and to the rest of the people:
“Lihouboua: me amola Yuda amola Bediamini fi dunu huluane ilima amane sia: sima,
24 ‘This is what the Lord says. Don't fight against your Israelite relatives. Every one of you, go home! For it was me that made this happen.’” So they obeyed what the Lord told them and went home, as the Lord had said.
‘Dilia fidafa Isala: ili dunu mae doagala: ma! Dilia huluane diasuga masa! Hou da wali doaga: i amo da Na hanaiga doaga: i.” Ilia huluane da Hina Gode Ea hamoma: ne sia: i nabi dagoi, amola ilia diasuga buhagi.
25 Jeroboam strengthened the town of Shechem in the hill country of Ephraim and lived there. From there he went and built Penuel.
Isala: ili hina bagade Yelouboua: me da Siegeme moilai Ifala: ime agolo sogega dialu, amo gagili sali, amola amo ganodini fonobahadi esalu. Amalalu, e da amo soge fisili, asili, Beniuele moilai gagili sali.
26 Jeroboam said to himself, “The kingdom could easily return to the house of David.
27 When people from here go to offer sacrifices at the Lord's Temple in Jerusalem, they will transfer their loyalty back to Rehoboam, king of Judah. Then they will kill me and go back to King Rehoboam.”
E da hisu amane dawa: i, “Na fi dunu da Yelusaleme moilai bai bagadega amo Hina Godema Debolo diasu ganodini gobele salimusa: ahoasea, ilia da sinidigili, hina bagade Lihouboua: mema fa: no bobogele, na fane legemu.”
28 So after taking advice, the king had two golden calves made, and he told the people, “Don't bother going to Jerusalem any more. Look, Israel, here are your gods who led you out of the land of Egypt.”
E da amo dawa: lalu, bulamagau mano gawali aduna gouliga hahamoi. E da ea fi dunuma amane sia: i, “Dilia da Godema nodone sia: ne gadomusa: , Yelusalemega afufulala helebe. Isala: ili dunu! Dilia ‘gode’ da dili Idibidi sogega fisili masa: ne, guiguda oule misi da goea!”
29 He placed one in Bethel, and the other in Dan.
E da gouliga hamoi bulamagau gawali mano afae Bedele moilaiga bugisi amola eno Da: ne sogega bugisi.
30 This action brought about sin, because the people went as far north as Dan to worship the idol there.
Amaiba: le, Isala: ili fi dunu da Bedele amola Da: ne amoga nodone sia: ne gadomusa: ahoanebeba: le, wadela: le bagade hamoi.
31 In addition Jeroboam had shrines built on high places and appointed as priests all kinds of people who were not Levites.
Amolawane, Yelouboua: me da nodone sia: ne gadosu sogebi bagohame amo agolo da: iya hahamosu. Amola, ea Lifai fi dunu hame, amo gobele salasu hawa: hamoma: ne udigili ilelegei.
32 Jeroboam initiated a festival on the fifteenth day of the eighth month, just like the festival held in Judah, and he offered sacrifices on the altar. He made this offering in Bethel, sacrificing to the calves he had made, and appointed priests in Bethel for the high places he had built.
Yelouboua: me ea sia: beba: le, Isala: ili dunu da eso 15 amola oubi godoane amoga Yuda sogega dunu fi ilia lolo nabe amo defele, lolo nasu hamoi. E da gouliga hamoi bulamagau gawali, amo ea hamoi liligi, amoma nodone sia: ne gadomusa: , Bedele oloda da: iya gobele salasu hamoi. Amola gobele salasu dunu amo da nodone sia: ne gadosu sogebi e hamoi amoga hawa: hamonanu, amo huluanema e da ili Bedele moilaiga esaloma: ne sia: i.
33 So on the fifteenth day of the eighth month, a month he had chosen himself, Jeroboam offered sacrifices on the altar he had set up in Bethel. In this way he instituted a festival for the Israelites, offering sacrifices on the altar and burning incense.
E da eso 15 amola oubi godoane amo ilegele, Bedele moilaiga asili, oloda da: iya gobele salasu hamoi. E da amanewane, Isala: ili fi dunu ilia hahawane lolo nasu, hisu da ilegei.
