Kings III 12
1 And king Roboam goes to Sikima; for all Israel were coming to Sikima to make him king.
Rehoboam chu Shechem’ah aga chen, hichea chun Israel pumpi’n ama chu leng chansah dingin ana kikhom khom uvin ahi.
Nebat chapa Jeroboam chun hichu ajah phat in Egypt’a konin ahung kile tan ahi. Ama chu Solomon lengpa a kona Egypt achu ana jamlut na ahi.
3 And the people spoke to king Roboam, saying, Your father made our yoke heavy;
Israel lamkai ten ama chu ana kouvun hiti chun Jeroboam chu Israel pumpi chutoh Rehoboam toh kihoulim khom dingin ana che uvin ahi.
4 but do you now lighten somewhat of the hard service of your father, and of his heavy yoke which he put upon us, and we will serve you.
Amahon ajah’a, “Napa Solomon chun eina bolgim lheh jengun ahi. Hijeh chun napa in, poh hahsa sa eikoiden un, nangin nasuh lhomjep’a, nom dom a neilhaule, naglenggam a kitah tan in pang unge,” atiuve.
5 And he said to them, Depart for three days, and return to me. And they departed.
Rehoboam in adonbut in, “Hiche thu’a hi ki ngaito na ding nithum phat neipeuvin, chujouteng leh ka donbutna ngai dingin hung kit tauvin,” ati. Hichun mipiho jong akile tauve.
6 And the king referred [the matter] to the elders, who stood before Solomon his father while he was yet living, saying, How do you advise that I should answer this people?
Hichun Rehoboam lengpa chun apa Solomon thumop a anapang upa ho chu ana kihou pin, “Hiche thua hi ipi na gel uvem? Iti ka donbut ding ham nei seipeh un,” ati.
7 And they spoke to him, saying, If you will this day be a servant to this people, and will serve them, and will speak to them good words, then will they be your servants continually.
Hichun upa ho chun adonbut un, “Nangin amaho chungahi na vaihom nom jing’a ahile adei banguvin donbut in chuti leh amaho hi nangma midih tah hi jing diu ahi,” atipeh uve.
8 But he forsook the counsel of the old men which they gave him, and consulted with the young men who were brought up with him, who stood in his presence.
Ahinlah Rehoboam in tehseho thumop la louvin khangdong amatoh hung seilen khomho ama thumop’a hung pang hojoh chu ipi na gel uvem tin ana dong tan ahi.
9 And he said to them, What counsel do you give? And what shall I answer to this people who speak to me, saying, Lighten somewhat of the yoke which your father has put upon us?
Aman amaho jah’a chun, “Hiche mipi hon napan kachung uva pohgih eipoh sah uhi neisuh lhompeh un atiu hi, iti ka donbut ding ham?” tin ana dongin ahi.
10 And the young men who had been brought up with him, who stood before his face, spoke to him, saying, Thus shall you say to this people who have spoken to you, saying, Your father made our yoke heavy, and do you now lighten it from off us: thus shall say to them, My little [finger shall be] thicker than my father's loins.
Hiche khangthah hochun, “Pohgih nei suhlhom peh un tia phun ho chu hitin donbut in, ‘Ka khut jung neocha hi kapa kong sang in asa jon ahi.
11 And whereas my father did lade you with a heavy yoke, I also will add to your yoke: my father chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.
Kapan na chung uva pohgih nana pohsah’u chu, keiman ka gihsah cheh ding ahi. Kapan khaojanga na jep’u ahi, kenvang sakol jepna a kajep diu nahiuve tipeh in,” atiuve.
12 And all Israel came to king Roboam on the third day, as the king spoke to them, saying, Return to me on the third day.
Jeroboam le mipi ho chu abonchauvin Rehoboam in a thupeh bang bangin nithum chanin lengpa thupeh ngai dingin ahung kit tauvin ahi.
13 And the king answered the people harshly; and Roboam forsook the counsel of the old men which they counselled him.
Ahin Rehoboam in amaho koma chun, upa ho thumop lalou in, ngailou tah’in thu ana sei tan ahi.
14 And he spoke to them according to the counsel of the young men, saying, My father made your yoke heavy, and I will add to your yoke: my father chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.
Aman akhangthah chanpi ho thumop joh chu ana sangin, “Kapan pohgih nana pohsah’u chu tuni ahi keiman ka gihsah cheh ding ahi. Kapan khaova najep’u ahin keiman sakol jepna a kajep diu na hiuve,” tin ana donbut tan ahi.
15 And the king listened not to the people, because the change was from the Lord, that he might establish his word which he spoke by Achia the Selonite concerning Jeroboam the son of Nabat.
Hiti chun lengpan mipite chu nasah louvin anakoi tan ahi. Hitobang thilsoh hi Pathen thilgon ahi. Ajeh chu Shiloh a kona hung Ahizah Themgao mangcha a Pakaiyin Nebat chapa Jeroboam kom’a athu hetsah chu guilhun na ding thilsoh ahi.
16 And all Israel saw that the king did not listen to them: and the people answered the king, saying, What portion have we in David? neither have we any inheritance in the son of Jessae. Depart, O Israel, to your tents: now feed your own house, David. So Israel departed to his tents.
Israel mipiten lengpa kom’a ataonau chu asanpeh tapoi ti ahet phat’un, amahon hitin adonbut tauve, “David insung mite mangthah u hen! Jesse chapa chungah lunglutna kanei tapouve, Vo Israel mite inlam kijot tauvin! Vo David! Nang in na insung bou kivet tan,” tin asam un, hiti chun Israel mipi chu ainlam cheh uva akile tauvin ahi.
Ahinlah Rehoboam in Judahh khopi ho cheng Israel ho chung’a chun vai ana hom nalai jin ahi.
18 And the king sent Adoniram who was over the tribute; and they stoned him with stones, and he died: and king Roboam made haste to rise to flee to Jerusalem.
Rehoboam in namna a natongho chunga vaihompa chu mipi thunun ding chun agah sol’in ahile ama chu mipi hon songin ana seplih tauvin ahi. Hiche thu chu Rehoboam lengpan ajahdoh phat in asakol kangtalai chung’a akaldoh loijin Jerusalem lang’a ajam tan ahi.
19 So Israel rebelled against the house of David until this day.
Hiche’a pat hin sahlam gamkai’a um Israel phungho jousen David chilhah khat in achung'uva vai ahop dingu chu anom tapouvin ahi.
20 And it came to pass when all Israel heard that Jeroboam had returned out of Egypt, that they sent and called him to the assembly, and they made him king over Israel: and none followed the house of David except the tribe of Juda and Benjamin only.
Israel mipiten Jeroboam chu Egypt akonin ahung kilekit taiti ajahphat’un, kikhopna anei un, amachu Israel pumpi chung’a vaipo din atung tauvin ahi. Judahh phung bou chun David chilhahte apanpiuvin ahi.
21 And Roboam went into Jerusalem, and he assembled the congregation of Juda, and the tribe of Benjamin, a hundred and twenty thousand young men, warriors, to fight against the house of Israel, to recover the kingdom to Roboam the son of Solomon.
Rehoboam chu Jerusalem alhung phat’in, aman Judahh le Benjamin phung’a konin a chomkhom in a lenggam tundoh kitna ding’a Israel mite sat dingin sepai sang jakhat le sangsom get alhengdoh in ahi.
22 And the word of the Lord came to Samaia the man of God, saying,
Ahinlah Pathen in Pathen mipa Shemaiah kom’ah hitin ahin seije,
23 Speak to Roboam the son of Solomon, king of Juda, and to all the house of Juda and Benjamin, and to the remnant of the people, saying,
“Benjamin le Judahh mipite ho jouse komle Judahh lengpa Solomon chapa Rehoboam komleh mipi adang jouse kom’ah seijin,
24 Thus says the Lord, You shall not go up, neither shall you fight with your brethren the sons of Israel: return each man to his own home; for this thing is from me; and they listened to the word of the Lord, and they ceased from going up, according to the word of the Lord.
‘Pathen in hitin aseiye, nasopi Israeltehi kisatpi hih’in, na incheh uva kile tauvin ajeh chu hiche hi keima na toh ahi!’ati. Hitichun Pakai thupeh chu ajui’un, ama ama inlang cheh’a akile tauvin ahi.
25 And Jeroboam built Sikima in mount Ephraim and lived in it, and went forth thence and built Phanuel.
Jeroboam Ephraim thinglhang gam’ah Shechem khopi chu ana tungdoh in, hichu ama leng khopi ahung hitan ahi. Hijouchun ama achen Panuel khopi jong aga tungdoh in ahi.
26 And Jeroboam said in his heart, Behold, now the kingdom will return to the house of David.
Jeroboam chu aki ngaiton, “Keima ka chih theilou leh hiche lenggam hi David chilhahte langa le lut kit thei ahi,” tin agel in ahi.
27 If this people shall go up to offer sacrifice in the house of the Lord at Jerusalem, then the heart of the people will return to the Lord, and to their master, to Roboam king of Juda, and they will kill me.
“Hiche mipite hi Jerusalema ache uva Pakai Houin a kilhaina agabol jing uva ahileh, Judahh lengpa Rehoboam noiyah avel in hunglutkit get unte, chuleh keima hi eitha uva amahi a Leng uva aki lahlut kit diu ahi,” tin ana gel in ahi.
28 And the king took counsel, and went, and made two golden heifers, and said to the people, Let it suffice you to have gone [hitherto] to Jerusalem: behold your gods, O Israel, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt.
Hijeh chun amiching hole athumop ho dungjuiyin, lengpa chun sana in bongnou lim asem in amite kom’a, “Jerusalema Pathen houva nache jiuhi, ahahsa behseh’e, veuvin Israelte Egypt a kona na hinpuidoh uva chu hiche Pathen teni hi ahi,” ati peh in ahi.
29 And he put one in Bethel, and he put the other in Dan.
Aman hiche semthu bong nou lim pathen teni hi Bethel khopi ah khat chule Dan khopi ah khat akoiyin ahi.
30 And this thing became a sin; and the people went before one as far as Dan, and left the house of the Lord.
Ahinlah hiche chu amaho din chonsetna nasatah ahung hi khatai, ajeh chu mipin bongnou lim semthu chu ahou tauvin ahi chule mipi hochu Dan lang peh peh’a che touva hiche semthu pathen akikoi chu aga hou jiu ahi.
31 And he made houses on the high places, and made priests of any part of the people, who were not of the sons of Levi.
Jeroboam min semthu pathen houna mun’a chun doiphung phabep a tungdoh in, Levi phungmi hilou milham phabep jong thempu in a thenso tan ahi.
32 And Jeroboam appointed a feast in the eighth month, on the fifteenth day of the month, according to the feast in the land of Juda;
Chule Jeroboam in Bethel khopiah houthudol kut khat jong ana pandoh in, hichu lhaget channa ani somlenga nileh ana boljin ahi. Hichu Judahh ten hoidohna golvah kum khat na khatvei aboljiu tobanga ahi. Bethel muna chun amatah’in jong bongnou lim asemna achun kilhaina asemin chuleh semthu pathen houna in achun thempu phabep jong anapan sah in ahi.
33 and went up to the altar which he made in Baethel to sacrifice to the heifers which he made, and he placed in Baethel the priests of the high places which he had made. And he went up to the altar which he had made, on the fifteenth day in the eighth month, at the feast which he devised out of his own heart; and he made a feast to the children of Israel, and went up to the altar to sacrifice.
Hijeh chun, ama tah’in anagon nikho, lhaget lhinna ni, som le nga channa alhinteng Jeroboam amatah in Bethel kilhaina maicham gantha ama lungdei tah’in ana boljin, aman Israelte houthu dol’a kut ana phudoh’a chu ama tah in kilhaina gantha maicham chungah ana bol’in, gim namtui jong ana lhutnam jin ahi.
