Chronicles II 12
1 And it came to pass when the kingdom of Roboam was established, and when he had grown strong, [that] he forsook the commandments of the Lord, and all Israel with him.
Ma mgbe e mere ka alaeze Rehoboam guzosie ike, mgbe ọ dịkwa ike, ọ hapụrụ iwu Onyenwe anyị ya na ndị Izrel niile.
2 And it came to pass in the fifth year of the reign of Roboam, Susakim king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, because they had sinned against the Lord,
Nʼihi na ha ekwesighị ntụkwasị obi nye Onyenwe anyị, Shishak eze Ijipt busoro Jerusalem agha nʼafọ nke ise nke ọchịchị eze Rehoboam.
3 with twelve hundred chariots, and sixty thousand horses: and there was no number of the multitude that came with him from Egypt; Libyans, Trogodytes, and Ethiopians.
O ji otu puku ụgbọ agha na narị abụọ, na ndị agha na-agba ịnyịnya dị puku iri isii, na ndị agha ụkwụ ala, ndị a na-apụghị ịgụta ọnụ, ndị agha si Libịa, Sukim na Kush, ndị sooro ya site nʼala Ijipt.
4 And they obtained possession of the strong cities, which were in Juda, and came to Jerusalem.
O merikwara obodo niile e wusiri ike nke Juda ma bịarukwaa Jerusalem.
5 And Samaias the prophet came to Roboam, and to the princes of Juda that were gathered to Jerusalem for fear of Susakim, and said to them, Thus said the Lord, You have left me, and I will leave you in the hand of Susakim.
Mgbe ahụ, Shemaya onye amụma bịakwutere Rehoboam na ndịisi Juda niile, ndị zukọtara na Jerusalem nʼihi egwu Shishak, sị ha, “Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị sịrị, ‘Unu ahapụla m, nʼihi ya, ahapụkwala m unu, nyefee unu nʼaka Shishak.’”
6 And the elders of Israel and the king were ashamed, and said, The Lord [is] righteous.
Ndị ndu Izrel na eze wedara onwe ha nʼala sị, “Onye ezi omume ka Onyenwe anyị bụ.”
7 And when the Lord saw that they repented, then came the word of the Lord to Samaias, saying, They have repented; I will not destroy them, but I will set them in safety for a little while, and my wrath shall not be poured out on Jerusalem.
Mgbe Onyenwe anyị hụrụ otu ha si weda onwe ha nʼala, okwu Onyenwe anyị bịakwutere Shemaya, sị, “Ebe ọ bụ na ha ewedala onwe ha nʼala, agakwaghị m ebibi ha kama aga m eme ka ha nwe nzọpụta ngwangwa. Agakwaghị m eji Shishak gosi Jerusalem oke iwe m.
8 Nevertheless they shall be servants, and know my service, and the service of the kings of the earth.
Ma otu ọ dị, ha ga-abụrụ ya ohu, ka ha nwe ike mata ọ dị iche dị nʼetiti ijere m ozi na ijere ndị eze ala ọzọ dị iche iche ozi.”
9 So Susakim king of Egypt went up against Jerusalem, and took the treasures that were in the house of the Lord, and the treasures that were in the king's house: he took all; and he took the golden shields which Solomon had made.
Mgbe Shishak eze Ijipt busoro Jerusalem nʼagha; o bukọrọ akụ niile dị nʼime ụlọ Onyenwe anyị, na akụ niile dịkwa nʼụlọeze. Ọ kwakọọrọ ihe niile, werekwa ọta ọlaedo ndị ahụ Solomọn kpụrụ.
10 And king Roboam made brazen shields instead of them. And Susakim set over him captains of footmen, as keepers of the gate of the king.
Ma eze Rehoboam kpụrụ ọta bronz i ji dochie ndị ahụ, nyefee ha nʼaka ndịisi ndị nche, bụ ndị na-eche nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọeze nche ka a lekọta ha anya.
11 And it came to pass, when the king went into the house of the Lord, the guards and the footmen went in, and they that returned to meet the footmen.
Mgbe ọbụla eze na-aga nʼụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị, ndị nche na-eso ya buru ọta ndị ahụ, emesịa, ha na-ebughachikwa ha nʼime ụlọ ndị nche.
12 And when he repented, the anger of the Lord turned from him, and did not destroy him utterly; for there were good things in Juda.
Mgbe eze wedara onwe ya nʼala, iwe Onyenwe anyị na-eweso ya dajụrụ, Ọ laghịkwa ya nʼiyi kpamkpam. Nʼezie, ezi ihe fọdụkwara na Juda.
13 So king Roboam strengthened [himself] in Jerusalem, and reigned: and Roboam was forty and one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, in the city which the Lord chose out of all the tribes of the children of Israel to call his name there: and his mother's name was Noomma the Ammanitess.
Eze Rehoboam mere onwe ya ka ọ dị ike na Jerusalem na-achịkwa ka eze. Ọ gbara iri afọ anọ na otu mgbe ọ malitere ịbụ eze, ọ chịrị afọ iri na asaa na Jerusalem, bụ obodo ahụ Onyenwe anyị họọrọ site nʼetiti ebo niile nke Izrel, bụ ebe ọ ga-akpọkwasị Aha ya. Aha nne ya bụ Naama, onye Amọn.
14 And he did evil, for he directed not his heart to seek the Lord.
O mere ihe ọjọọ, nʼihi na ọ dịghị mgbe ọbụla o kpebiri nʼobi ya ịchọ Onyenwe anyị.
15 And the acts of Roboam, the first and the last, behold, are they not written in the book of Samaia the prophet, and Addo the seer, with his achievements.
Ma banyere ihe ndị ọzọ niile mere nʼoge ọchịchị Rehoboam, site na mmalite ruo ọgwụgwụ, ọ bụ na e deghị ha nʼakwụkwọ akụkọ nke Shemaya onye amụma na nke Ido onye ọhụ ụzọ, nke na-ahụ maka ihe banyere usoro ọmụmụ niile? Agha dịgidere nʼetiti Rehoboam na Jeroboam ụbọchị niile nke ndụ ha.
16 And Roboam made war with Jeroboam all [his] days. And Roboam died with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David: and Abia his son reigned in his stead.
Rehoboam sooro ndị nna nna ya ha dina nʼọnwụ, e lie ya nʼobodo Devid. Abija nwa ya ghọrọ eze nʼọnọdụ ya.
