< 2 Chronicles 11 >
1 And when Rehoboam was come to Ierusalem, he gathered of the house of Iudah and Beniamin nine score thousande chosen men of warre to fight against Israel, and to bring the kingdome againe to Rehoboam.
Ary nony tonga tany Jerosalema Rehoboama, dia novoriny ny taranak’ i Joda sy Benjamina, dia miaramila valo alina amby iray hetsy voafantina, hiady amin’ ny Isiraely hampody ny fanjakana ho an-dRehoboama.
2 But the worde of the Lord came to Shemaiah the man of God, saying,
Kanjo kosa ny tenin’ i Jehovah tonga tamin’ i Semaia, lehilahin’ Andriamanitra, ka nanao hoe:
3 Speake vnto Rehoboam, the sonne of Salomon King of Iudah, and to all Israel that are in Iudah, and Beniamin, saying,
Mitenena amin-dRehoboama, zanak’ i Solomona, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, sy amin’ ny Isiraely rehetra amin’ ny Joda sy ny Benjamina hoe:
4 Thus sayth the Lord, Ye shall not goe vp, nor fight against your brethren: returne euery man to his house: for this thing is done of me. They obeyed therfore the word of the Lord, and returned from going against Ieroboam.
Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Aza mandeha hiady amin’ ny rahalahinareo, fa samia mody any an-tranony avy ianareo, fa avy amiko izao zavatra izao. Ary nihaino ny tenin’ i Jehovah ny olona, ka dia samy lasa nody, fa tsy nandeha hamely an’ i Jeroboama.
5 And Rehoboam dwelt in Ierusalem, and buylt strong cities in Iudah.
Ary Rehoboama nitoetra tany Jerosalema ka nanamboatra tanàna mimanda tany Joda.
6 Hee buylt also Beth-lehem, and Etam, and Tekoa,
Ny namboariny dia izao: Betlehema sy Etama sy Tekoa
7 And Beth-zur, and Shoco, and Adullam,
sy Beti-zora sy Soko sy Adolama
8 And Gath, and Maresha, and Ziph,
sy Gata sy Maresa sy Zifa
9 And Adoraim, and Lachish, and Azekah,
sy Adoraima sy Lakisy sy Azeka
10 And Zorah, and Aialon, and Hebron, which were in Iudah and Beniamin, strong cities.
sy Zora sy Aialona ary Hebrona, izay tanàna mimanda ao amin’ ny Joda sy ny Benjamina.
11 And he repaired the strong holdes and put captaines in them, and store of vitaile, and oyle and wine.
Ary nanamafy ny tanàna mimanda izy sady nametraka mpanapaka tao aminy ary nanisy hanina sy diloilo ary divay betsaka.
12 And in all cities he put shieldes and speares, and made them exceeding strong: so Iudah and Beniamin were his.
Ary tamin’ ny isam-bohitra dia nasiany ampinga lehibe sy lefona avokoa, sady nohamafiny dia nohamafiny ny vohitra; ary ny Joda sy ny Benjamina no nomba azy.
13 And the Priests and the Leuites that were in all Israel, resorted vnto him out of all their coastes.
Ary ny mpisorona sy ny Levita izay teo amin’ ny Isiraely rehetra dia nanatona azy avy tany amin’ ny fari-taniny avy.
14 For the Leuites left their suburbes and their possession, and came to Iudah and to Ierusalem: for Ieroboam and his sonnes had cast them out from ministring in the Priestes office vnto the Lord.
Fa ny Levita nandao ny tanànany sy ny tany manodidina azy ka nankany Joda sy Jerosalema (fa Jeroboama sy ny zanany efa nanaisotra azy tsy ho mpisorona ho an’ i Jehovah,
15 And he ordeyned him Priests for the hie places, and for the deuils and for the calues which he had made.
fa nanendry mpisorona ho amin’ ny fitoerana avo sy ho an’ ny Seïrima ary ho an’ ny ombilahy kely izay nataony).
16 And after the Leuites there came to Ierusalem of all the tribes of Israel, such as set their heartes to seeke the Lord God of Israel, to offer vnto the Lord God of their fathers.
Ary na iza na iza tamin’ ny firenen’ Isiraely rehetra no nanolotra ny fony hitady an’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, dia nanaraka ireo nankany Jerosalema hamono zavatra hatao fanatitra ho an’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny razany.
17 So they strengthened the kingdome of Iudah, and made Rehoboam the sonne of Salomon mightie, three yeere long: for three yeere they walked in in the way of Dauid and Salomon.
Ka dia nampahery ny fanjakan’ ny Joda izy sady nampahavitrika an-dRehoboama, zanak’ i Solomona, telo taona; fa nandeha tamin’ ny lalan’ i Davida sy Solomona telo taona izy.
18 And Rehoboam tooke him Mahalath ye daughter of Ierimoth the sonne of Dauid to wife, and Abihail the daughter of Eliab the sonne of Ishai,
Ary Rehoboama naka an’ i Mahalota, zanakavavin’ i Jerimota, zanak’ i Davida, sy Abihaila, zanakavavin’ i Eliaba, zanak’ i Jese, ho vadiny,
19 Which bare him sonnes Ieush, and Shemariah, and Zaham.
izay nahazoany zaza, dia Jeosy sy Semaria ary Zahama.
20 And after her he tooke Maakah ye daughter of Absalom which bare him Abiiah, and Atthai, and Ziza, and Shelomith.
Ary nanarakaraka azy, dia nalainy koa Imaka, zanakavavin’ i Absaloma, izay niteraka an’ i Abia sy Atahy sy Ziza ary Selomita taminy.
21 And Rehoboam loued Maakah ye daughter of Absalom aboue all his wiues and his concubines: for he tooke eighteene wiues, and three score concubines, and begate eyght and twentie sonnes, and three score daughters.
Ary Rehoboama tia an’ Imaka, zanakavavin’ i Absaloma, mihoatra noho ny vadiny sy ny vaditsindranony rehetra (fa naka vady valo ambin’ ny folo sy vaditsindrano enim-polo izy ka niteraka lahy valo amby roa-polo sy vavy enim-polo).
22 And Rehoboam made Abiiah the sonne of Maakah the chiefe ruler among his brethren: for he thought to make him King.
Ary Abia, zanakalahin’ Imaka, no nataon-dRehoboama lohany ho mpanapaka ny rahalahiny; fa izy no efa nokasainy hampanjakaina.
23 And he taught him: and dispersed all his sonnes throughout all the countreis of Iudah and Beniamin vnto euery strong citie: and hee gaue them aboundance of vitaile, and desired many wiues.
Ary hendry izy ka nampiely ny zanany eran’ ny tanin’ ny Joda sy ny Benjamina rehetra, dia tany amin’ ny tanàna mimanda rehetra, ka nomeny hanina betsaka sady nitadiavany vady maro.
