1 Kings 12
1 And Rehoboam went to Shechem; for all Israel were come to Shechem to make him king.
HELE aku la o Rehoboama i Sekema, no ka mea, ua hele ka Iseraela a pau i Sekema e hooalii ia ia.
2 And it came to pass, when Jeroboam the son of Nebat heard of it — for he was yet in Egypt, whither he had fled from the presence of king Solomon, and Jeroboam dwelt in Egypt,
Eia hoi kekahi, a lohe mai la o Ieroboama ke keiki a Nebata e noho ana ia ma Aigupita, (no ka mea, ua holo aku la ia mai ke alo aku o Solomona a ke alii, a noho no Ieroboama ma Aigupita; )
3 and they sent and called him — that Jeroboam and all the congregation of Israel came, and spoke unto Rehoboam, saying:
Hoouna aku la lakou a kii ia ia; a hele mai Ieroboama a me ke anaina a pau o ka Iseraela, a olelo aku la lakou ia Hehoboama, i aku la.
4 'Thy father made our yoke grievous; now therefore make thou the grievous service of thy father, and his heavy yoke which he put upon us, lighter, and we will serve thee.'
Ua hookaumaha mai la kou makuakane i ka makou auamo; ano hoi e hoomama oe i ka hana ehaeha a kou makuakane, a me ka auamo kaumaha ana i kau mai ai maluna o makou, alaila e malama aku makou ia oe.
5 And he said unto them: 'Depart yet for three days, then come again to me.' And the people departed.
I mai la oia ia lakou, O hoi oukou i na la ekolu, alaila e hele hou mai io'u nei. Hoi aku la no hoi na kanaka.
6 And king Rehoboam took counsel with the old men, that had stood before Solomon his father while he yet lived, saying: 'What counsel give ye me to return answer to this people?'
A kukakuka mai la o Rehoboama me na kanaka kahiko, ka poe i ku ma ke alo o Solomona kona makuakane, i kona wa e ola ana, ninau mai la, Pehea ia oukou e olelo mai ai e hai aku au i keia poe kanaka?
7 And they spoke unto him, saying: 'If thou wilt be a servant unto this people this day, and wilt serve them, and answer them, and speak good words to them, then they will be thy servants for ever.'
Olelo aku la lakou ia ia, i aku la, Ina e hookahu oe no keia poe kanaka i keia la, a e malama ia lakou, a e hai aku ia lakou, me ka olelo i na huaolelo pono ia lakou, alaila lilo lakou i poe kauwa mau nau.
8 But he forsook the counsel of the old men which they had given him, and took counsel with the young men that were grown up with him, that stood before him.
Haalele ae la oia i ka olelo a ka poe kanaka kahiko, a lakou i haawi ai ia ia, a kukakuka mai la me na kanaka ui i nunui pu ae me ia, na mea i ku imua o kona alo:
9 And he said unto them: 'What counsel give ye, that we may return answer to this people, who have spoken to me, saying: Make the yoke that thy father did put upon us lighter?'
Olelo mai la hoi oia ia lakou, Heaha ka olelo a oukou e olelo mai ai, e hai aku ai kakou i keia poe kanaka, ka poe i olelo mai ia'u, i ka i aua mai, E hoomama oe i ka auamo a kou makuakane i kau mai ai maluna o makou?
10 And the young men that were grown up with him spoke unto him, saying: 'Thus shalt thou say unto this people that spoke unto thee, saying: Thy father made our yoke heavy, but make thou it lighter unto us; thus shalt thou speak unto them: My little finger is thicker than my father's loins.
Olelo aku la hoi ia ia na kanaka ui i nunui pu ae me ia, i aku la, Penei oe e olelo aku ai i keia poe kanaka i olelo ae nei ia oe, i ka i ana'e, Ua hookaumaha mai la kou makuakane i ka makou auamo; aka, e hoomama mai oe ia mea ia makou; e olelo aku oe ia lakou peneia, E kela aku ka manoanoa o kuu limaiki i ko ka puhaka o ko'u makuakane.
11 And now whereas my father did burden you with a heavy yoke, I will add to your yoke; my father chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.'
Eia hoi ua hooili ka ko'u makuakane i ka auamo kaumaha maluna o oukou, o hoouka hou aku au ma ka oukou auamo; ua hahau ko'u makuakane ia oukou me na huipa, aka, e hahau aku au ia oukou me na moohueloawa.
12 So Jeroboam and all the people came to Rehoboam the third day, as the king bade, saying: 'Come to me again the third day.'
Pela i hoi mai ai o Ieroboama a me ka poe kanaka a pau io Rehoboama la i ke kolu o ka la, e like me ka ke alii i hoomaopopo ai, i ka i ana mai, E hoi mai oukou io'u nei i ke kolu o ka la.
13 And the king answered the people roughly, and forsook the counsel of the old men which they had given him;
Hai mai la ke alii i kanaka me ka oolea, a ua haalele aku i ka olelo a ka poe kanaka kahiko, a lakou i haawi aku ai ia ia;
14 and spoke to them after the counsel of the young men, saying: 'My father made your yoke heavy, but I will add to your yoke; my father chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.'
A olelo mai la hoi ia lakou mamuli o ka olelo a na kanaka ui, i mai la, Ua hookaumaha ko'u makuakane i ka oukou auamo, aka, e hoouka hou aku au ma ka oukou auamo; ua hahau ko'u makuakane ia oukou me na huipa, aka, e hahau aku wau ia oukou me na moohueloawa.
15 So the king hearkened not unto the people; for it was a thing brought about of the LORD, that He might establish His word, which the LORD spoke by the hand of Ahijah the Shilonite to Jeroboam the son of Nebat.
Aole hoi i hoolohe ke alii i kanaka, no ka mea, no ka Haku mai no ia, i hooko mai oia i kana olelo a Iehova i olelo mai ai ma ka lima o Ahiia no Silo, ia Ieroboama ke keiki a Nebata.
16 And when all Israel saw that the king hearkened not unto them, the people answered the king, saying: 'What portion have we in David? neither have we inheritance in the son of Jesse; to your tents, O Israel; now see to thine own house, David.' So Israel departed unto their tents.
A ike ae la ka Iseraela a pau, i ka hoolohe ole mai o ke alii ia lakou, olelo aku la ka poe kanaka i ke alii, e i ana, Heaha ko makou kuleana iloko o Davida? aole hooilina iloko o ke keiki a Iese. I ko oukou mau halelewa, e ka Iseraela: ano hoi, e nana i kau ohana iho, e Davida. Pela i hoi ai ka Iseraela i ko lakou mau halelewa.
17 But as for the children of Israel that dwelt in the cities of Judah, Rehoboam reigned over them.
A o na mamo a Iseraela e noho ana ma na kulanakauhale o Davida, ua alii ae la o Hehoboama maluna o lakou.
18 Then king Rehoboam sent Adoram, who was over the levy; and all Israel stoned him with stones, so that he died. And king Rehoboam made speed to get him up to his chariot, to flee to Jerusalem.
Alaila hoouna ae la o Rehoboama ia Adorama, ka lunaauhau, a hailuku ka Iseraela a pau ia ia me na pohaku a make ia. Nolaila hele wikiwiki ae la o Rehoboama ke alii e ee ae i kona kaa, e holo i Ierusalema.
19 So Israel rebelled against the house of David, unto this day.
Pela i kipi ai ka Iseraela i ka ohana a Davida a hiki i keia la.
20 And it came to pass, when all Israel heard that Jeroboam was returned, that they sent and called him unto the congregation, and made him king over all Israel; there was none that followed the house of David, but the tribe of Judah only.
Eia kekahi, i ka lohe ana o ka Iseraela a pau, ua hoi mai o Ieroboama, kii aku la lakou ia ia e hele mai i ke anaina, a hooalii lakou ia ia maluna o ka Iseraela a pau. Aohe mea i hahai i ka ohana a Davida, o ka Iuda wale no.
21 And when Rehoboam was come to Jerusalem, be assembled all the house of Judah, and the tribe of Benjamin, a hundred and fourscore thousand chosen men that were warriors, to fight against the house of Israel, to bring the kingdom back to Rehoboam the son of Solomon.
A hoi mai o Rehoboama i Ierusalema, hoakoakoa mai la oia i ka ohana a pau a Iuda, a me ka ohana a Beniamina, hookahi haneri me kanawalu tausani kanaka i waeia, na kanaka kaua, e kaua aku i ka ohana a Iseraela e hoihoi mai i ke aupuni ia Rehoboama ke keiki a Solomona.
22 But the word of God came unto Shemaiah the man of God, saying:
Aka, hiki mai ka olelo a ke Akua, ia Semaia, ke kanaka o ke Akua, i mai la,
23 'Speak unto Rehoboam the son of Solomon, king of Judah, and unto all the house of Judah and Benjamin, and to the rest of the people, saying:
E olelo aku ia Rehoboama ke keiki a Solomona, ke alii o Iuda, a i ka ohana a pau a Iuda, a me Beniamina, a me ke koena o na kanaka, e i aku,
24 Thus saith the LORD: Ye shall not go up, nor fight against your brethren the children of Israel; return every man to his house; for this thing is of Me.' So they hearkened unto the word of the LORD, and returned and went their way, according to the word of the LORD.
Ke i mai nei Iehova penei, Mai pii aku oukou, aole hoi e kaua aku i ko oukou poe hoahanau na mamo a Iseraela, e hoi kela kanaka keia kanaka i kona hale iho, no ka mea, no'u aku nei keia mea. Hoolohe aku la lakou i ka olelo a ka Haku, a huli lakou e hoi e like me ka olelo a Iehova.
25 Then Jeroboam built Shechem in the hill-country of Ephraim, and dwelt therein; and he went out from thence, and built Penuel.
Alaila kukulu ae la o Ieroboama ia Sekema ma ka mauna Eperaima, a noho ae la malaila; a hele aku malaila aku, a kukulu ae la ia Penuela.
26 And Jeroboam said in his heart: 'Now will the kingdom return to the house of David.
I iho la o Ieroboama iloko o kona naau, Ano, e hoi aku ai ke aupuni i ka ohana a Davida.
27 If this people go up to offer sacrifices in the house of the LORD at Jerusalem, then will the heart of this people turn back unto their lord, even unto Rehoboam king of Judah; and they will kill me, and return to Rehoboam king of Judah.'
Ina e pii ae keia poe kanaka e kaumaha ma ka hale o Iehova, ma Ierusalema, alaila e hoi ka naau o keia poe kanaka i ko lakou haku ia Rehoboama ke alii o Iuda, a e pepehi mai lakou ia'u, a e hoi hou aku ia Rehoboama i ke alii o Iuda.
28 Whereupon the king took counsel, and made two calves of gold; and he said unto them: 'Ye have gone up long enough to Jerusalem; behold thy gods, O Israel, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.'
Nolaila kuka iho la ke alii, a hana i na keikibipi gula elua, a i mai la oia ia lakou, He nui ko oukou hele ana i Ierusalema: Eia hoi kou mau akua, e Iseraela, i lawe mai ia oe mai ka aina mai o Aigupita.
29 And he set the one in Beth-el, and the other put he in Dan.
Kukulu ae la hoi oia i kekahi ma Betela, a waiho aku hoi i kekahi ma Dana.
30 And this thing became a sin; for the people went to worship before the one, even unto Dan.
Lilo ae la keia mea i hewa, no ka mea, ua hele ae la na kanaka imua o kekahi i Dana.
31 And he made houses of high places, and made priests from among all the people, that were not of the sons of Levi.
Hana iho la oia i hale no na wahi kiekie, a hoolilo ae la i kekahi mau makaainana i poe kahuna, aole o ko na mamo a Levi.
32 And Jeroboam ordained a feast in the eighth month, on the fifteenth day of the month, like unto the feast that is in Judah, and he went up unto the altar; so did he in Beth-el, to sacrifice unto the calves that he had made; and he placed in Beth-el the priests of the high places that he had made.
Hana iho la hoi o Ieroboama i ka ahaaina i ka walu o ka malama i ka umikumamalima o ka la, e like me ka ahaaina maloko o Iuda, a kaumaha aku la maluna o ke kuahu. Pela oia i hana'i ma Betela, e kaumaha ana no na keikibipi ana i hana'i; a hoonoho aku la oia ma Betela i na kahuna o na wahi kiekie ana i hana'i.
33 And he went up unto the altar which he had made in Beth-el on the fifteenth day in the eighth month, even in the month which he had devised of his own heart; and he ordained a feast for the children of Israel, and went up unto the altar, to offer.
Pela oia i kaumaha ai ma ke kuahu ana i hana'i ma Betela i ka umikumamalima o ka la o ka walu o ka mahina, ana i noonoo ai ma kona naau; a ua hoomaopopo i ka ahaaina na ka poe mamo a Iseraela, a ua kaumaha aku la maluna o ke kuahu, a kuni hoi i ka mea ala.
