1 Kings 14
1 At that time Abijah son of Jeroboam was sick,
[雅洛貝罕的兒子患病]那時，雅洛貝罕的兒子阿彼雅患病，
2 and Jeroboam says to his wife, “Now rise and change yourself, and they do not know that you [are the] wife of Jeroboam, and you have gone to Shiloh; behold, Ahijah the prophet [is] there; he spoke to me of [being] king over this people;
雅洛貝罕對自己的妻子說：「請你起來改裝，教人認不出你是雅洛貝罕的妻子，往史羅去，在那裏有先知阿希雅，他曾預言過我要作這人民的君王。
3 and you have taken in your hand ten loaves, and crumbs, and a bottle of honey, and have gone to him; he declares to you what becomes of the youth.”
你帶上十塊餅，一些餅乾和一瓶蜜去見他，他會告訴你孩子將來究竟如何。」
4 And the wife of Jeroboam does so, and rises, and goes to Shiloh, and enters the house of Ahijah, and Ahijah is not able to see, for his eyes have stood because of his age.
雅洛貝罕的妻子就這樣做了：起身去了史羅，來到阿希雅的家。阿希雅因年老，眼睛昏花，不能看清；
5 And YHWH said to Ahijah, “Behold, the wife of Jeroboam is coming to seek a word from you concerning her son, for he is sick; thus and thus you speak to her, and it comes to pass at her coming in, that she is making herself strange.”
但上主卻預先對阿希雅說：「雅洛貝罕的妻子，要來問你有關她兒子的事，因為她兒子病了；你要如此這般地答覆她；她來時，是作另一婦人的打扮。」阿希雅預言孩子必死
6 And it comes to pass, at Ahijah’s hearing the sound of her feet [as] she came to the opening, that he says, “Come in, wife of Jeroboam, why is this [that] you are making yourself strange? And I am sent to you [with] a sharp thing.
她一進門，阿希雅聽見她的腳步聲，就說：「雅洛貝罕的妻子，請進來! 你為什麼扮另一婦人﹖我正奉命要告訴你一個凶信。
7 Go, say to Jeroboam, Thus said YHWH, God of Israel: Because that I have made you high out of the midst of the people, and appoint you leader over my people Israel,
你去告訴雅洛貝罕，上主以色列的天主這樣說：我從人民中提拔了你，立你作我人民以色列的領袖；
8 and tear the kingdom from the house of David, and give it to you—and you have not been as My servant David who kept My commands, and who walked after Me with all his heart, to only do that which [is] right in My eyes,
我從達味家奪過王國來交給你，而你卻不像我的僕人達味那樣遵守我的誡命，全心隨從我，只行我視為正義的事；
9 and you do evil above all who have been before you, and go, and make other gods and molten images for yourself to provoke Me to anger, and you have cast Me behind your back—
你反而作惡甚於你以前的任何人，且去為你自己製造別的神，鑄造偶像，惹我發怒，完全背棄了我。
10 therefore, behold, I am bringing calamity to the house of Jeroboam, and have cut off to Jeroboam those sitting on the wall—shut up and left—in Israel, and have put away the posterity of the house of Jeroboam, as one puts away the dung until its consumption;
因此，我要降災懲罰雅洛貝罕家，消滅以色列所有屬於雅洛貝罕的男人，無論是自由的或是不自由的，一概除掉；我要掃除雅洛貝罕的家，有如人清除糞土一樣。
11 the dogs eat him who dies of Jeroboam in a city, and birds of the heavens eat him who dies in a field, for YHWH has spoken.
凡屬雅洛貝罕的人，死在城中的，必為狗吞食，死在田野間的，必為空中的飛鳥啄食：因為上主說了。
12 And you, rise, go to your house; in the going in of your feet to the city, the boy has died;
現在，你快起身回家；當的腳踏進城門時，孩子就要死去。
13 and all Israel has mourned for him, and buried him, for this one—by himself—of Jeroboam comes to a grave, because there has been found in him a good thing toward YHWH, God of Israel, in the house of Jeroboam.
全以色列人要哀悼他，埋葬他；雅洛貝罕家中，只有他得進入墳墓，因為雅洛貝罕家中，只有他行了一些中悅上主，以色列的天主的善事。
14 And YHWH has raised up for Himself a king over Israel who cuts off the house of Jeroboam this day—and what? Even now!
上主必為自己另選一位君王來統治以色列，那天他要消滅雅洛貝罕家。現在，我還能說什麼﹖
15 And YHWH has struck Israel as the reed is moved by the waters, and has plucked Israel from off this good ground that He gave to their fathers, and scattered them beyond the River, because that they made their Asherim, provoking YHWH to anger;
上主必要打擊以色列，使他們搖動如同水中的蘆葦；並將以色列從上主賜給他們祖先的福地上拔除，使他們分散在大河之外，因為他們製造了阿舍辣惹上主發怒。
16 and He gives up Israel because of the sins of Jeroboam that he sinned, and that he caused Israel to sin.”
由於雅洛貝罕自己所犯的罪，和使他以色列所犯的罪，上主必要拋棄以色列。」
17 And the wife of Jeroboam rises, and goes, and comes to Tirzah; she has come to the threshold of the house, and the youth dies;
雅洛貝罕的妻子遂起身走了，到了提爾匝，一進家門，孩子就死了。
18 and they bury him, and all Israel mourns for him, according to the word of YHWH that he spoke by the hand of His servant Ahijah the prophet.
全以色列埋葬了他，並為他舉哀，正如上主藉著他的僕人阿希雅先知所說的話。雅洛貝罕逝世
19 And the rest of the matters of Jeroboam, how he fought, and how he reigned, behold, they are written on the scroll of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel.
雅洛貝罕其餘的事蹟，有關他怎樣戰爭，怎樣作王，都記載在以色列列王實錄上。
20 And the days that Jeroboam reigned [are] twenty-two years, and he lies with his fathers, and his son Nadab reigns in his stead.
雅洛貝罕在位凡二十二年，然後與列祖同眠。他的兒子納達布繼位為王。勒哈貝罕為猶大王
21 And Rehoboam son of Solomon has reigned in Judah; Rehoboam [is] a son of forty-one years in his reigning, and he has reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city that YHWH chose to set His Name there, out of all the tribes of Israel, and the name of his mother [is] Naamah the Ammonitess.
撒羅滿的兒子勒哈貝罕在猶大為王，他登極時，年四十一歲。他在耶路撒冷，即在上主從以色列各支派中選出歸他名下的城中，作王十七年；他的母親名叫納阿瑪，是阿孟人。
22 And Judah does evil in the eyes of YHWH, and they make Him zealous above all that their fathers did by their sins that they have sinned.
猶大人行了上主視為惡的事；他們所犯的罪比他們祖先所犯的，更激怒上主，
23 And they build—they also—for themselves high places, and standing-pillars, and Asherim, on every high height, and under every green tree;
因為他們也在各地的高崗上，在各綠樹下，修築了丘壇、柱像和阿舍辣；
24 and a whoremonger has also been in the land; they have done according to all the abominations of the nations that YHWH dispossessed from the presence of the sons of Israel.
境內還有為神賣淫的男女，完全仿效了上主從以色列前所驅逐的異族，做了種種可憎惡的事。埃及王進攻猶大
25 And it comes to pass, in the fifth year of King Rehoboam, Shishak king of Egypt has gone up against Jerusalem,
勒哈貝罕作王第五年，埃及王史沙克上來進攻耶路撒冷，
26 and he takes the treasures of the house of YHWH, and the treasures of the house of the king, indeed, he has taken the whole; and he takes all the shields of gold that Solomon made.
劫去上主殿內和王宮的寶物，全部帶走，連撒羅滿所製的一切金盾牌也都帶去。
27 And King Rehoboam makes shields of bronze in their stead, and has made [them] a charge on the hand of the heads of the runners, those keeping the opening of the house of the king,
勒哈貝罕只得製造銅盾牌來代替，交給防衛宮門的侍衛長保管；
28 and it comes to pass, from the going in of the king to the house of YHWH, the runners carry them, and have brought them back to the chamber of the runners.
每逢君王進入上主的殿時，侍衛便手持這些盾牌；事後，仍將盾牌送回侍衛室中。勒哈貝罕逝世
29 And the rest of the matters of Rehoboam and all that he did, are they not written on the scroll of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah?
勒哈貝罕其餘的事蹟，他的一切作為，都記載在猶大列王十實錄上。
30 And there has been war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam [for] all the days;
勒哈貝罕與雅洛貝罕之間不斷發生戰事。
31 and Rehoboam lies with his fathers, and is buried with his fathers in the City of David, and the name of his mother [is] Naamah the Ammonitess, and his son Abijam reigns in his stead.
勒哈貝罕與列祖同眠，與列祖同葬在達味城。他的母親名叫納阿瑪，是阿孟人；他的兒子阿彼雅繼位為王。
