2 Chronicles 11
1 And when Rehobo'am was come to Jerusalem, he assembled the house of Judah and Benjamin a hundred and eighty thousand chosen men, warriors, to fight against Israel, to bring back the kingdom again to Rehobo'am.
Rehoboam chu Jerusalem ahunglhun phat chun Judah phung le Benjamin phunga konin Israel douna ama lenggam tundoh kitna din mi akhomin, galsat ding Sepai sang jakhat le sang somget alheng doh in ahi.
2 But the word of the Lord came unto Shema'yahu the man of God, saying,
Ahinlah Pakai chun Pathen mipa Shemiah jah a chun aseijin,
3 Say unto Rehobo'am the son of Solomon, the king of Judah and Benjamin, saying,
Solomon chapa Rehoboam Judah te Lengpa chule Judah le Benjamin gam'a Israel mite jouse jah’a chun seipeh in,
4 Thus hath said the Lord, Ye shall not go up, nor fight with your brethren: return every man to his house; for from me hath this thing been brought about. And they hearkened to the words of the Lord, and returned from going against Jerobo'am.
Pakaiyin hiti hin aseije, “Na inkote dounan galsat hih beh in, inlama kinunglen ajeh chu thilsoh hohi keima bola ahi bouve,” hiti chun amahon Pakai thusei chu anungin Jeroboam dounan gal abol tapouve.
5 And Rehobo'am dwelt in Jerusalem, and built cities as fortresses in Judah.
Rehoboam chu Jerusalema aumden in, Judah te ventupna dingin khopi jouse chu kulpi akai tan ahi.
6 He built, namely, Beth-lechem, and 'Etam, and Thekoa'.
Aman Bethlehem, Etan, Tekoa, Beth-Zur, Soco, Adullam,
7 And Beth-zur, and Socho, and 'Adullam,
Gath, Mareshah, Zeph,
8 And Gath, and Mareshah, and Ziph,
Adorium, Lachish, Azekah,
9 And Adorayim and Lachish, and 'Azekah,
Zorah, Aijalon le Hebron asadoh in ahi. Hiche khopi hohi Judah le Benjamin gamsunga kulpi akaiho ahitai.
10 And Zor'ah, and Ayalon, and Hebron, which are in Judah and in Benjamin, fortified cities.
Jeroboam chun akivennau lampang hou chu asuhat in, chule asunga chun gal lamkai ding atousah in chuleh anneh twidon, olive thaotui le lengpi theitui thil ho ning lhing tah in akoipeh’in ahi.
11 And he strengthened the strong-holds, and put commanders in them, and stores of food, and oil and wine;
Chujongleh aban joma kiven tup theina dingin kidalna pho le tengcha hojong, hiche khopi ho sunga chun akoiyin ahi. Chuti chun Judah le Benjamin gamsung chu ventup na noiya aumin ahi.
12 And in each and every city [he placed] shields and spears, and made them exceedingly strong: and thus remained with him Judah and Benjamin.
Ahinlah sahlam gamkai’a Israel phung holah’a cheng thempu hole Levite chun, abon chaovin Rehoboam alangkaipiu vin ahi.
13 And the priests and the Levites that were in all Israel presented themselves to him out of all their territory.
Levite chun akelngoi chin nau hamhing gam anei-agou jengu jong ahin dalhao vin, Judah gamle Jerusalem lama ahung chaodoh un ahi; ajeh chu Jeroboam le achateu chun thempu ahinauva Pakai kin abol diu ajahdahpeh’u ahi.
14 For the Levites left their open districts and their possession, and went to Judah and Jerusalem; because Jerobo'am and his sons cast them off from executing the priest's office unto the Lord,
Jeroboam chun doiphung le amahon ahou u, kelcha le bongnou lim semthu ho jen le ding chun atumin thempu akilhen nun ahi.
15 And [because] he ordained for himself priests for the high-places, and for the evil spirits, and for the calves which he had made.
Israel phung holah’a lungthengsella Pakai Israel Pathen hounom jouse chun, Jerusalema dingin Levite chu ajuitauve. Chuleh hiche lai munna chun apu apao Pakai, Pathen koma thilto abolthei’u ahi.
16 And after them [came] out of all the tribes of Israel such as directed their heart to seek the Lord the God of Israel: these came to Jerusalem, to sacrifice unto the Lord, the God of their fathers.
Hiche hin Judah lenggam ahatsah ben, chule kum thum sung chu Solomon chapa Rehoboam chu akitho piuvin, David le Solomon chonbang chun kitah tah in ajui tauvin ahi.
17 And they strengthened the kingdom of Judah, and brought power to Rehobo'am, the son of Solomon, during three years; for they walked in the way of David and Solomon during three years.
Rehoboam chun David chapa Jeremoth chanu Mahalath akichen pin ahi. Amanu hi Jesse chapa Eleah chanu Abihail chanu ahi.
18 And Rehobo'am took himself as wife Machalath the daughter of Jerimoth the son of David, [and] Abichayil the daughter of Eliab the son of Jesse;
Mahalath chun chapa thum Jeush, Shamariah le Zaham ahingin ahi.
19 And she bore to him sons: Je'ush, and Shamaryah, and Zaham.
Chujouvin Rehoboam chun Absalom chanu maacah akichen pin, Macaah chun Abijah, Attai, Ziza le Shitomith ahingin ahi.
20 And after her did he take Ma'achah the daughter of Abshalom; and she bore to him Abiyah, and 'Attai, and Ziza, and Shelomith.
Rehoboam chun ajite leh athaikem holah’a chun Maacah chu alungset penin ahi. Rehoboam chun ji som le get athaikum somgup aneiyin, amaho chun chapa somni le get le chanu som gup ahing uve.
21 And Rehobo'am loved Ma'achah the daughter of Abshalom more than all his wives and his concubines; for he had taken eighteen wives and sixty concubines; and he begat twenty and eight sons, and sixty daughters.
Rehoboam chun Maacah chapa Abijah chu Leng Chapate lah’a alam kai diu vin apansah in, hiche hin kichentah agon chu ahileh ama chu abana leng ding tina ahi.
22 And Rehobo'am appointed Abiyah the son of Ma'achah to be the chief, to be ruler among his brethren; because [he desired] to make him king.
Rehoboam chun achapa dang ho jong chu mopohna apen, Judah leh Benjamin gamsung pumpia kulpi kikai khopi ho achun atousah in ahi. Amaho chu hongphal tah’in nehle chah apen chule aji diu jong tamtah apuipeh in ahi.
23 And he dealt understandingly, and dispersed all his children throughout all the countries of Judah and Benjamin, unto all the fortified cities; and he gave them food in abundance and he required [for them] a multitude of wives.
