2 Chronicles 12
1 And it came to pass, when Rehobo'am had established the kingdom, and when he had become strong, that he forsook the law of the Lord, and all Israel with him.
Thuutha wa Rehoboamu kwĩhaanda ta mũthamaki na gũkorwo agĩte na hinya, we hamwe na Isiraeli yothe nĩmatiganĩirie watho wa Jehova.
2 And it came to pass in the fifth year of king Rehobo'am, that Shishak the king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, —because they had acted faithlessly against the Lord, —
Tondũ wa gũkorwo matarĩ ehokeku harĩ Jehova, Shishaka mũthamaki wa Misiri nĩatharĩkĩire Jerusalemu mwaka wa gatano wa Mũthamaki Rehoboamu.
3 With twelve hundred chariots and sixty thousand horsemen: and innumerable were the people that came with him out of Egypt—the Lubim, the Sukkiyim, and the Ethiopians.
Aarĩ na ngaari cia mbaara 1,200 na andũ arĩa mathiiaga mahaicĩte mbarathi 60,000, na thigari itangĩtarĩka cia kuuma Alubi, na Asukii, na Akushi arĩa mookĩte nake kuuma Misiri,
4 And he captured the fortified cities which pertained to Judah, and he came as far as Jerusalem.
agĩtaha matũũra manene marĩa maarĩ mairigĩre ma Juda na agĩthiĩ nginya Jerusalemu.
5 And Shem'ayah the prophet came to Rehobo'am, and the princes of Judah, that were gathered together to Jerusalem because of Shishak, and said unto them, Thus hath said the Lord, Ye have indeed forsaken me, and therefore have I also relinquished you into the hand of Shishak.
Nake mũnabii Shemaia agĩũka kũrĩ Rehoboamu o na kũrĩ atongoria a Juda arĩa moonganĩte kũu Jerusalemu nĩ ũndũ wa gwĩtigĩra Shishaka, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Jehova ekuuga ũũ: ‘Nĩmũndiganĩirie; na nĩ ũndũ ũcio, o na niĩ ngũmũtiganĩria moko-inĩ ma Shishaka.’”
6 Thereupon the princes of Israel and the king humbled themselves; and they said, The Lord is righteous.
Atongoria a Isiraeli hamwe na mũthamaki makĩĩnyiihia, makiuga atĩrĩ, “Jehova nĩ wa kĩhooto.”
7 And when the Lord saw that they had humbled themselves, then came the word of the Lord to Shem'ayah, saying, “They have humbled themselves: I will not destroy them; but I will permit some little to escape from them; and my wrath shall not be poured out over Jerusalem by the hand of Shishak.”
Rĩrĩa Jehova onire atĩ nĩmenyiihĩtie-rĩ, ndũmĩrĩri ĩno ya Jehova ĩgĩkinyĩra Shemaia akĩĩrwo atĩrĩ: “Kuona atĩ nĩmenyiihĩtie-rĩ, ndikũmananga no nĩngũmahonokia o narua. Mangʼũrĩ makwa matigũitĩrĩrio Jerusalemu na kũhũthĩra guoko gwa Shishaka.
8 However they shall be servants unto him, and they shall know my service, and the service of the kingdoms of the [various] countries.
No rĩrĩ, megũtuĩka ndungata ciake, nĩgeetha mamenye ũtiganu wa kũndungatĩra na gũtungatĩra athamaki a mabũrũri ma kũngĩ.”
9 And so came up Shishak the king of Egypt against Jerusalem, and he took away the treasures of the house of the Lord, and the treasures of the king's house: every thing did he take away; and he took away the shields of gold which Solomon had made.
Rĩrĩa Shishaka mũthamaki wa Misiri aatharĩkĩire Jerusalemu-rĩ, agĩkuua igĩĩna cia hekarũ ya Jehova na igĩĩna cia nyũmba ya ũthamaki. Aakuuire indo ciothe, o hamwe na ngo cia thahabu iria Solomoni aathondekithĩtie.
10 And king Rehobo'am made in their stead shields of copper, and committed them for keeping into the hand of the chiefs of the runners, who kept guard at the door of the king's house.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Mũthamaki Rehoboamu agĩthondeka ngo cia gĩcango handũ ha icio cia mbere, agĩcinengera anene a arangĩri arĩa maaikaraga itoonyero-inĩ rĩa nyũmba ya ũthamaki.
11 And it happened whenever the king went into the house of the Lord, that the runners came and bore them, and carried them back into the apartment of the runners.
Rĩrĩa rĩothe mũthamaki aathiiaga hekarũ ya Jehova-rĩ, arangĩri acio maathiiaga hamwe nake makuuĩte ngo icio, na thuutha wa ũguo magacicookia nyũmba-inĩ ya arangĩri.
12 And when he had humbled himself, the wrath of the Lord turned from him, so that he destroyed him not to make an end [of him]: and also in Judah were some good things [found].
Tondũ Rehoboamu nĩenyiihirie, Jehova nĩamwehereirie marakara make, na ndaigana kũmũniina o biũ. Ti-itherũ nĩ kwarĩ na maũndũ mamwe mega kũu Juda.
13 And king Rehobo'am strengthened himself in Jerusalem, and reigned; for Rehobo'am was one and forty years old when he became king, and seventeen years did he reign in Jerusalem, the city which the Lord had chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, to put his name there. And his mother's name was Na'amah the 'Ammonitess.
Mũthamaki Rehoboamu nĩehaandire wega kũu Jerusalemu na agĩthiĩ o na mbere arĩ mũthamaki. 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 etagwo Naama, na aarĩ Mũamoni.
14 And he did the evil; because he directed not his heart to seek the Lord.
Nĩekire maũndũ mooru tondũ ndaatuĩte na ngoro yake kũrongooria Jehova.
15 And the acts of Rehobo'am, the first and the last, behold, they are written in the history of Shem'ayah the prophet, and of 'Iddo, the seer concerning the genealogies. And the wars of Rehobo'am and Jerobo'am [lasted] all the days.
Na ha ũhoro wa maũndũ marĩa mangĩ makoniĩ wathani wa Rehoboamu kuuma kĩambĩrĩria nginya mũthia-rĩ, githĩ matiandĩkĩtwo maandĩko-inĩ ma Shemaia ũrĩa mũnabii, na ma Ido ũrĩa muoni-maũndũ marĩa maarĩtie ũhoro wa njiarwa? Gwatũũraga mbaara gatagatĩ ka Rehoboamu na Jeroboamu.
16 And Rehobo'am slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David: and Abiyah his son became king in his stead.
Rehoboamu akĩhurũka hamwe na maithe make na agĩthikwo o kũu Itũũra-inĩ Inene rĩa Daudi. Nake mũriũ Abija agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩake.
