2 Chronicles 11
1 And when Rehoboam was come to Jerusalem, he gathered of the house of Judah and Benjamin an hundred and fourscore thousand chosen men, which were warriors, to fight against Israel, that he might bring the kingdom again to Rehoboam.
Rehoboam Jerusalem a pha navah Isarelnaw a tuk teh, a uknaeram hah Rehoboam e a kut dawk bout pha sak hanelah, Judah hoi Benjamin imthung dawk e ransa 180,000 touh a pâkhueng.
2 But the word of the LORD came to Shemaiah the man of God, saying,
Hatei Cathut e tami Shimei koevah BAWIPA e lawk ka tho e teh,
3 Speak to Rehoboam the son of Solomon, king of Judah, and to all Israel in Judah and Benjamin, saying,
Judah ram hoi Benjamin ram dawk e Isarelnaw pueng koe,
4 Thus says the LORD, You shall not go up, nor fight against your brothers: return every man to his house: for this thing is done of me. And they obeyed the words of the LORD, and returned from going against Jeroboam.
BAWIPA ni hettelah a dei, na hmaunawnghanaw tuk hanelah cet hanh awh. Abuemlah nama im lah koung ban awh leih. Bangkongtetpawiteh, hete hno teh kai ni ka tâcosak e doeh, telah dei pouh atipouh. Hottelah BAWIPA ni a dei e a tarawi awh teh, Jeroboam tuk laipalah bout a ban awh.
5 And Rehoboam dwelled in Jerusalem, and built cities for defense in Judah.
Rehoboam teh Jerusalem vah ao teh, Judah ram ring nahanelah, khopuinaw a thawng.
6 He built even Bethlehem, and Etam, and Tekoa,
Bethlehem, Etam, Tekoa,
7 And Bethzur, and Shoco, and Adullam,
Bethzur, Sokoh, Adullam,
8 And Gath, and Mareshah, and Ziph,
Gath, Mareshah, Ziph,
9 And Adoraim, and Lachish, and Azekah,
Adoraim, Lakhish, Azekah,
10 And Zorah, and Aijalon, and Hebron, which are in Judah and in Benjamin fenced cities.
Zorah, Aijalon hoi Hebron khonaw a kangdue sak. Hote khonaw teh Judah ram hoi Benjamin ram dawk rapan ka tawn e khonaw doeh.
11 And he fortified the strong holds, and put captains in them, and store of victual, and of oil and wine.
Hete khonaw teh, kacakpounglah a tungdum awh teh, rapanim dawk ransabawinaw satui, misurtui hoi, lamvonnaw hawvah a hruek awh.
12 And in every several city he put shields and spears, and made them exceeding strong, having Judah and Benjamin on his side.
Kho tangkuem bahling hoi tahroenaw a hruek awh teh kacakpounge kho lah a sak. Judah ram hoi Benjamin ram teh ama koe lah a kampang sak.
13 And the priests and the Levites that were in all Israel resorted to him out of all their coasts.
Isarel ram dawk kaawm e vaihmanaw hoi Levihnaw teh amamouh aonae koehoi ahni koe a pâtam awh.
14 For the Levites left their suburbs and their possession, and came to Judah and Jerusalem: for Jeroboam and his sons had cast them off from executing the priest’s office to the LORD:
Bangkongtetpawiteh, Levihnaw ni a ram hoi a onae a tâcotakhai awh teh, Judah ram Jerusalem kho lah a cei awh. Jeroboam hoi a capanaw ni BAWIPA e vaihma thaw dawk hoi a kâhat sak awh.
15 And he ordained him priests for the high places, and for the devils, and for the calves which he had made.
Hahoi, kahrai hoi sakcawp e maitotan meikaphawknaw hanelah hmuenrasang dawk vaihma thaw a tawk sak awh.
16 And after them out of all the tribes of Israel such as set their hearts to seek the LORD God of Israel came to Jerusalem, to sacrifice to the LORD God of their fathers.
Isarel BAWIPA Cathut tawng hanelah a lungthin kapoenaw ni Isarel miphun kacetkhaie Levih miphunnaw e hnuk a kâbang awh teh, mintoenaw e BAWIPA Cathut koe thuengnae sak hanelah Jerusalem kho dawk a tho awh.
17 So they strengthened the kingdom of Judah, and made Rehoboam the son of Solomon strong, three years: for three years they walked in the way of David and Solomon.
Ahnimanaw ni Judah uknaeram a tho sak awh teh, Solomon capa Rehoboam hah kum thum touh thung a caksak awh. Kum thum touh thung Devit e lamthung hoi Solomon e lamthung a dawn awh.
18 And Rehoboam took him Mahalath the daughter of Jerimoth the son of David to wife, and Abihail the daughter of Eliab the son of Jesse;
Rehoboam ni Devit capa Jerimoth e canu Mahalath hoi Jesi capa Eliab e canu Abihail hah a yu lah a la.
19 Which bore him children; Jeush, and Shamariah, and Zaham.
Capa kathum touh a khe teh, Jeush, Shemariah hoi Zaham telah min a phung.
20 And after her he took Maachah the daughter of Absalom; which bore him Abijah, and Attai, and Ziza, and Shelomith.
Hathnukkhu Absalom e canu Maakah bout a la teh, Abijah, Attai hoi Ziza a khe.
21 And Rehoboam loved Maachah the daughter of Absalom above all his wives and his concubines: (for he took eighteen wives, and three score concubines; and begat twenty and eight sons, and three score daughters.)
Rehoboam ni a yu 18 touh, ado 60 touh a la teh, ca tongpa 28 touh, napui 60 touh a khe. Absalom e canu Maakah teh alouke a yunaw hoi adonaw hlak hoe a lungpataw.
22 And Rehoboam made Abijah the son of Maachah the chief, to be ruler among his brothers: for he thought to make him king.
Rehoboam ni Maakah capa Abijah teh a hmaunawnghanaw hlakvah hoe ka talue lah a hruek. Bangkongtetpawiteh, siangpahrang lah rawi hane a ngai dawk doeh.
23 And he dealt wisely, and dispersed of all his children throughout all the countries of Judah and Benjamin, to every fenced city: and he gave them victual in abundance. And he desired many wives.
Lungangcalah hoi kho a pouk teh, capanaw pueng hah Judah ram hoi Benjamin ram pueng dawk e rapan kaawm e khonaw dawk ao sak teh a kapek. Canei hane moikapap a hruek pouh teh, yu moikapap a tawng pouh.
