1 Kings 14
1 At that time Abijah the son of Jeroboam fell sick.
Ihinda-inĩ rĩu, Abija mũrũ wa Jeroboamu akĩrwara,
2 And Jeroboam said to his wife, Arise, I pray you, and disguise yourself, that you be not known to be the wife of Jeroboam; and get you to Shiloh: behold, there is Ahijah the prophet, which told me that I should be king over this people.
nake Jeroboamu akĩĩra mũtumia wake atĩrĩ, “Wĩgarũre nĩgeetha ndũkae kũmenyeka atĩ nĩwe mũtumia wa Jeroboamu. Ũcooke ũthiĩ Shilo. Ahija ũrĩa mũnabii nĩkuo arĩ, ũrĩa wanjĩĩrire atĩ niĩ nĩngatuĩka mũthamaki wa andũ aya a Isiraeli.
3 And take with you ten loaves, and cracknels, and a cruse of honey, and go to him: he shall tell you what shall become of the child.
Kuua mĩgate ikũmi, na tũmĩgate tũngĩ tũnini na kĩhembe kĩa ũũkĩ, ũthiĩ kũrĩ we. Nĩegũkwĩra ũrĩa ũhoro wa kamwana gaka ũgaikara.”
4 And Jeroboam's wife did so, and arose, and went to Shiloh, and came to the house of Ahijah. But Ahijah could not see; for his eyes were set by reason of his age.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio mũtumia wa Jeroboamu agĩĩka ũguo eerirwo na agĩthiĩ mũciĩ kwa Ahija kũu Shilo. Na rĩrĩ, Ahija ndoonaga; nĩorĩte maitho nĩ gũkũra.
5 And the LORD said unto Ahijah, Behold, the wife of Jeroboam comes to ask a thing of you for her son; for he is sick: thus and thus shall you say unto her: for it shall be, when she comes in, that she shall feign herself to be another woman.
Nowe Jehova nĩeerĩte Ahija atĩrĩ, “Mũtumia wa Jeroboamu nĩarooka gũkũũria ũhoro wa mũriũ nĩ ũndũ nĩ mũrũaru, nawe ũmũcookerie ũna na ũna. Aakinya-rĩ, egwĩtua taarĩ mũndũ ũngĩ.”
6 And it was so, when Ahijah heard the sound of her feet, as she came in at the door, that he said, Come in, you wife of Jeroboam; why feign you yourself to be another? for I am sent to you with heavy tidings.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio rĩrĩa Ahija aaiguire mũkinyo wa magũrũ make arĩ mũrango-inĩ, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Toonya, mũtumia wa Jeroboamu. Ũretua tiwe nĩkĩ? Nĩndũmĩtwo kũrĩ we na ũhoro ũtarĩ mwega.
7 Go, tell Jeroboam, Thus says the LORD God of Israel, Forasmuch as I exalted you from among the people, and made you prince over my people Israel,
Thiĩ, kũrĩ Jeroboamu ũmwĩre atĩ Jehova, Ngai wa Isiraeli ekuuga atĩrĩ: ‘Niĩ ndakũnenehirie kuuma gatagatĩ ka andũ, ngĩgũtua mũtongoria wa andũ akwa a Isiraeli.
8 And rent the kingdom away from the house of David, and gave it you: and yet you have not been as my servant David, who kept my commandments, and who followed me with all his heart, to do that only which was right in mine eyes;
Ndaatunyanire ũthamaki kuuma kũrĩ nyũmba ya Daudi, ngĩkũnengera, no wee ndũkoretwo ũhaana ta ndungata yakwa Daudi, ũrĩa watũire arũmĩtie maathani makwa, na akanũmĩrĩra na ngoro yake yothe, agekaga o ũrĩa wiki wagĩrĩire maitho-inĩ makwa.
9 But have done evil above all that were before you: for you have gone and made you other gods, and molten images, to provoke me to anger, and have cast me behind your back:
Wee nĩwĩkĩte maũndũ maingĩ mooru, gũkĩra andũ arĩa othe makoretwo marĩ mbere yaku. Nĩwĩthondekeire ngai ingĩ, o na mĩhianano ya kũhooywo ĩthondeketwo na kĩgera. Nĩũtũmĩte ndakare na ũkaahutatĩra.
10 Therefore, behold, I will bring evil upon the house of Jeroboam, and will cut off from Jeroboam him that pisses against the wall, and him that is shut up and left in Israel, and will take away the remnant of the house of Jeroboam, as a man takes away dung, till it be all gone.
“‘Nĩ ũndũ wa ũguo-rĩ, nĩngũrehere nyũmba ya Jeroboamu mwanangĩko. Nĩngwehereria Jeroboamu mwana o wothe wa kahĩĩ thĩinĩ wa Isiraeli, arĩ ngombo kana atarĩ ngombo. Nĩngacina nyũmba ya Jeroboamu o ta ũrĩa mũndũ acinaga mai nginya magathira.
11 Him that dies of Jeroboam in the city shall the dogs eat; and him that dies in the field shall the fowls of the air eat: for the LORD has spoken it.
Ngui nĩikaarĩa andũ a Jeroboamu arĩa magaakuĩra itũũra-inĩ inene, nacio nyoni cia rĩera-inĩ irĩe arĩa magaakuĩra mĩgũnda-inĩ. Jehova nĩguo oigĩte!’
12 Arise you therefore, get you to your own house: and when your feet enter into the city, the child shall die.
“No wee-rĩ, cooka mũciĩ. O wakinya itũũra-inĩ inene-rĩ, noguo mwana ũcio arĩkua.
13 And all Israel shall mourn for him, and bury him: for he only of Jeroboam shall come to the grave, because in him there is found some good thing toward the LORD God of Israel in the house of Jeroboam.
Isiraeli othe nĩmakamũcakaĩra na mamũthike. Ũcio nowe wiki wa Jeroboamu ũgaathikwo, tondũ nowe wiki thĩinĩ wa nyũmba ya Jeroboamu, Jehova, Ngai wa Isiraeli, onete ũndũ mwega thĩinĩ wake.
14 Moreover the LORD shall raise him up a king over Israel, who shall cut off the house of Jeroboam that day: but what? even now.
“Jehova we mwene nĩakarũgamia mũthamaki ũngĩ wa gũthamakĩra Isiraeli ũrĩa ũkaaniina nyũmba ya Jeroboamu. Ũmũthĩ nĩguo mũthenya! Atĩ atĩa? Ĩĩ, amĩniine o ro rĩu.
15 For the LORD shall strike Israel, as a reed is shaken in the water, and he shall root up Israel out of this good land, which he gave to their fathers, and shall scatter them beyond the river, because they have made their groves, provoking the LORD to anger.
Nake Jehova nĩakahũũra Isiraeli, nginya mahaane ta ithanjĩ rĩrainaina rĩrĩ maaĩ-inĩ. Nĩakamunya andũ a Isiraeli kuuma bũrũri ũyũ mwega ũrĩa aaheire maithe mao, na amahurunje mũrĩmo ũrĩa ũngĩ wa Rũũĩ rwa Farati, tondũ nĩmarakaririe Jehova nĩ ũndũ wa gwĩthondekera itugĩ cia Ashera.
16 And he shall give Israel up because of the sins of Jeroboam, who did sin, and who made Israel to sin.
Nĩagatiganĩria andũ a Isiraeli nĩ ũndũ wa mehia marĩa Jeroboamu ekĩte, na ningĩ agatũma Isiraeli meehie.”
17 And Jeroboam's wife arose, and departed, and came to Tirzah: and when she came to the threshold of the door, the child died;
Nake mũtumia wa Jeroboamu agĩũkĩra, agĩthiĩ Tiriza. Rĩrĩa aakinyire mũromo-inĩ wa nyũmba, kahĩĩ kau gagĩkua.
18 And they buried him; and all Israel mourned for him, according to the word of the LORD, which he spoke by the hand of his servant Ahijah the prophet.
Nao magĩgathika, na andũ a Isiraeli othe magĩgacakaĩra, o ta ũrĩa Jehova oigĩte na kanua ka ndungata yake Ahija, ũrĩa mũnabii.
19 And the rest of the acts of Jeroboam, how he warred, and how he reigned, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
Maũndũ marĩa mangĩ makoniĩ wathani wa Jeroboamu, mbaara ciake, na ũrĩa aathanire, nĩmandĩke ibuku-inĩ rĩa athamaki a Isiraeli.
20 And the days which Jeroboam reigned were two and twenty years: and he slept with his fathers, and Nadab his son reigned in his position.
Aathamakire mĩaka mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ĩĩrĩ, agĩcooka akĩhurũka hamwe na maithe make. Nake mũriũ Nadabu agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩake.
21 And Rehoboam the son of Solomon reigned in Judah. Rehoboam was forty and one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city which the LORD did choose out of all the tribes of Israel, to put his name there. And his mother's name was Naamah an Ammonitess.
Rehoboamu mũrũ wa Solomoni nĩwe warĩ mũthamaki wa Juda. Aarĩ na ũkũrũ wa mĩaka mĩrongo ĩna na ũmwe rĩrĩa aatuĩkire mũthamaki, na agĩthamaka arĩ Jerusalemu mĩaka ikũmi na mũgwanja, itũũra-inĩ inene rĩrĩa Jehova aathuurĩte kuuma mĩhĩrĩga-inĩ yothe ya Isiraeli, nĩgeetha Rĩĩtwa rĩake rĩtũũre kuo. Nyina eetagwo Naama, na aarĩ Mũamoni.
22 And Judah did evil in the sight of the LORD, and they provoked him to jealousy with their sins which they had committed, above all that their fathers had done.
Nao andũ a Juda nĩmekire maũndũ ma waganu maitho-inĩ ma Jehova. Nĩ ũndũ wa mehia marĩa meekire, nĩmarahũrire marakara make, akĩigua ũiru nĩ ũndũ nĩmehĩtie, gũkĩra ũrĩa maithe mao meehĩtie.
23 For they also built them high places, and images, and groves, on every high hill, and under every green tree.
Ningĩ magĩĩthondekera kũndũ kũrĩa gũtũũgĩru, na mahiga maamũre, na itugĩ cia Ashera, o harĩa hothe haarĩ karĩma karaihu, na rungu rwa mũtĩ o wothe waramĩtie honge.
24 And there were also sodomites in the land: and they did according to all the abominations of the nations which the LORD cast out before the children of Israel.
O na nĩ kwarĩ maraya ma arũme mahooero-inĩ kũu bũrũri-inĩ; andũ acio magĩĩka maũndũ mothe marĩa maarĩ magigi ma ndũrĩrĩ iria Jehova aaingatĩte mbere ya andũ a Isiraeli matanoka kuo.
25 And it came to pass in the fifth year of king Rehoboam, that Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem:
Mwaka-inĩ wa ĩtano wa Mũthamaki Rehoboamu-rĩ, Shishaka mũthamaki wa Misiri agĩtharĩkĩra Jerusalemu.
26 And he took away the treasures of the house of the LORD, and the treasures of the king's house; he even took away all: and he took away all the shields of gold which Solomon had made.
Nake agĩkuua igĩĩna cia hekarũ ya Jehova na igĩĩna cia nyũmba ya ũthamaki. Aakuuire indo ciothe o hamwe na ngo ciothe cia thahabu iria Solomoni aathondekithĩtie.
27 And king Rehoboam made in their position brazen shields, and committed them unto the hands of the chief of the guard, which kept the door of the king's house.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Mũthamaki Rehoboamu agĩthondeka ngo ingĩ cia gĩcango handũ ha icio cia mbere, agĩcinengera anene a arangĩri arĩa maikaraga itoonyero-inĩ rĩa nyũmba ya ũthamaki.
28 And it was so, when the king went into the house of the LORD, that the guard bare them, and brought them back into the guard chamber.
Rĩrĩa rĩothe mũthamaki aathiiaga hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova, arangĩri acio maathiiaga nake makuuĩte ngo icio, na thuutha ũcio magacicookia nyũmba-inĩ ya arangĩri.
29 Now the rest of the acts of Rehoboam, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
Ha ũhoro wa maũndũ marĩa mangĩ mothe makoniĩ wathani wa Rehoboamu na ũrĩa wothe eekire-rĩ, githĩ matiandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩa maũndũ ma athamaki a Juda?
30 And there was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all their days.
Hĩndĩ ciothe nĩ gwakoragwo na mbaara gatagatĩ ka Rehoboamu na Jeroboamu.
31 And Rehoboam slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David. And his mother's name was Naamah an Ammonitess. And Abijam his son reigned in his position.
Nake Rehoboamu akĩhurũka hamwe na maithe make, agĩthikwo hamwe nao thĩinĩ wa itũũra inene rĩa Daudi. Nyina eetagwo Naama, na aarĩ Mũamoni. Nake mũriũ Abija agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩake.
