1 Kings 14
1 At that time Abijah son of Jeroboam was sick,
Ihinda-inĩ rĩu, Abija mũrũ wa Jeroboamu akĩrwara,
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;
nake Jeroboamu akĩĩra mũtumia wake atĩrĩ, “Wĩgarũre nĩgeetha ndũkae kũmenyeka atĩ nĩwe mũtumia wa Jeroboamu. Ũcooke ũthiĩ Shilo. Ahija ũrĩa mũnabii nĩkuo arĩ, ũrĩa wanjĩĩrire atĩ niĩ nĩngatuĩka mũthamaki wa andũ aya a Isiraeli.
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.”
Kuua mĩgate ikũmi, na tũmĩgate tũngĩ tũnini na kĩhembe kĩa ũũkĩ, ũthiĩ kũrĩ we. Nĩegũkwĩra ũrĩa ũhoro wa kamwana gaka ũgaikara.”
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.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio mũtumia wa Jeroboamu agĩĩka ũguo eerirwo na agĩthiĩ mũciĩ kwa Ahija kũu Shilo. Na rĩrĩ, Ahija ndoonaga; nĩorĩte maitho nĩ gũkũra.
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.”
Nowe Jehova nĩeerĩte Ahija atĩrĩ, “Mũtumia wa Jeroboamu nĩarooka gũkũũria ũhoro wa mũriũ nĩ ũndũ nĩ mũrũaru, nawe ũmũcookerie ũna na ũna. Aakinya-rĩ, egwĩtua taarĩ mũndũ ũngĩ.”
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.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio rĩrĩa Ahija aaiguire mũkinyo wa magũrũ make arĩ mũrango-inĩ, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Toonya, mũtumia wa Jeroboamu. Ũretua tiwe nĩkĩ? Nĩndũmĩtwo kũrĩ we na ũhoro ũtarĩ mwega.
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,
Thiĩ, kũrĩ Jeroboamu ũmwĩre atĩ Jehova, Ngai wa Isiraeli ekuuga atĩrĩ: ‘Niĩ ndakũnenehirie kuuma gatagatĩ ka andũ, ngĩgũtua mũtongoria wa andũ akwa a Isiraeli.
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,
Ndaatunyanire ũthamaki kuuma kũrĩ nyũmba ya Daudi, ngĩkũnengera, no wee ndũkoretwo ũhaana ta ndungata yakwa Daudi, ũrĩa watũire arũmĩtie maathani makwa, na akanũmĩrĩra na ngoro yake yothe, agekaga o ũrĩa wiki wagĩrĩire maitho-inĩ makwa.
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—
Wee nĩwĩkĩte maũndũ maingĩ mooru, gũkĩra andũ arĩa othe makoretwo marĩ mbere yaku. Nĩwĩthondekeire ngai ingĩ, o na mĩhianano ya kũhooywo ĩthondeketwo na kĩgera. Nĩũtũmĩte ndakare na ũkaahutatĩra.
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;
“‘Nĩ ũndũ wa ũguo-rĩ, nĩngũrehere nyũmba ya Jeroboamu mwanangĩko. Nĩngwehereria Jeroboamu mwana o wothe wa kahĩĩ thĩinĩ wa Isiraeli, arĩ ngombo kana atarĩ ngombo. Nĩngacina nyũmba ya Jeroboamu o ta ũrĩa mũndũ acinaga mai nginya magathira.
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.
Ngui nĩikaarĩa andũ a Jeroboamu arĩa magaakuĩra itũũra-inĩ inene, nacio nyoni cia rĩera-inĩ irĩe arĩa magaakuĩra mĩgũnda-inĩ. Jehova nĩguo oigĩte!’
12 And you, rise, go to your house; in the going in of your feet to the city, the boy has died;
“No wee-rĩ, cooka mũciĩ. O wakinya itũũra-inĩ inene-rĩ, noguo mwana ũcio arĩkua.
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.
Isiraeli othe nĩmakamũcakaĩra na mamũthike. Ũcio nowe wiki wa Jeroboamu ũgaathikwo, tondũ nowe wiki thĩinĩ wa nyũmba ya Jeroboamu, Jehova, Ngai wa Isiraeli, onete ũndũ mwega thĩinĩ wake.
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!
“Jehova we mwene nĩakarũgamia mũthamaki ũngĩ wa gũthamakĩra Isiraeli ũrĩa ũkaaniina nyũmba ya Jeroboamu. Ũmũthĩ nĩguo mũthenya! Atĩ atĩa? Ĩĩ, amĩniine o ro rĩu.
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;
Nake Jehova nĩakahũũra Isiraeli, nginya mahaane ta ithanjĩ rĩrainaina rĩrĩ maaĩ-inĩ. Nĩakamunya andũ a Isiraeli kuuma bũrũri ũyũ mwega ũrĩa aaheire maithe mao, na amahurunje mũrĩmo ũrĩa ũngĩ wa Rũũĩ rwa Farati, tondũ nĩmarakaririe Jehova nĩ ũndũ wa gwĩthondekera itugĩ cia Ashera.
16 and He gives up Israel because of the sins of Jeroboam that he sinned, and that he caused Israel to sin.”
Nĩagatiganĩria andũ a Isiraeli nĩ ũndũ wa mehia marĩa Jeroboamu ekĩte, na ningĩ agatũma Isiraeli meehie.”
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;
Nake mũtumia wa Jeroboamu agĩũkĩra, agĩthiĩ Tiriza. Rĩrĩa aakinyire mũromo-inĩ wa nyũmba, kahĩĩ kau gagĩkua.
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.
Nao magĩgathika, na andũ a Isiraeli othe magĩgacakaĩra, o ta ũrĩa Jehova oigĩte na kanua ka ndungata yake Ahija, ũrĩa mũnabii.
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.
Maũndũ marĩa mangĩ makoniĩ wathani wa Jeroboamu, mbaara ciake, na ũrĩa aathanire, nĩmandĩke ibuku-inĩ rĩa athamaki a Isiraeli.
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.
Aathamakire mĩaka mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ĩĩrĩ, agĩcooka akĩhurũka hamwe na maithe make. Nake mũriũ Nadabu agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩake.
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.
Rehoboamu mũrũ wa Solomoni nĩwe warĩ mũthamaki wa Juda. 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 eetagwo Naama, na aarĩ Mũamoni.
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.
Nao andũ a Juda nĩmekire maũndũ ma waganu maitho-inĩ ma Jehova. Nĩ ũndũ wa mehia marĩa meekire, nĩmarahũrire marakara make, akĩigua ũiru nĩ ũndũ nĩmehĩtie, gũkĩra ũrĩa maithe mao meehĩtie.
23 And they build—they also—for themselves high places, and standing-pillars, and Asherim, on every high height, and under every green tree;
Ningĩ magĩĩthondekera kũndũ kũrĩa gũtũũgĩru, na mahiga maamũre, na itugĩ cia Ashera, o harĩa hothe haarĩ karĩma karaihu, na rungu rwa mũtĩ o wothe waramĩtie honge.
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.
O na nĩ kwarĩ maraya ma arũme mahooero-inĩ kũu bũrũri-inĩ; andũ acio magĩĩka maũndũ mothe marĩa maarĩ magigi ma ndũrĩrĩ iria Jehova aaingatĩte mbere ya andũ a Isiraeli matanoka kuo.
25 And it comes to pass, in the fifth year of King Rehoboam, Shishak king of Egypt has gone up against Jerusalem,
Mwaka-inĩ wa ĩtano wa Mũthamaki Rehoboamu-rĩ, Shishaka mũthamaki wa Misiri agĩtharĩkĩra Jerusalemu.
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.
Nake agĩkuua igĩĩna cia hekarũ ya Jehova na igĩĩna cia nyũmba ya ũthamaki. Aakuuire indo ciothe o hamwe na ngo ciothe cia thahabu iria Solomoni aathondekithĩtie.
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,
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Mũthamaki Rehoboamu agĩthondeka ngo ingĩ cia gĩcango handũ ha icio cia mbere, agĩcinengera anene a arangĩri arĩa maikaraga itoonyero-inĩ rĩa nyũmba ya ũthamaki.
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.
Rĩrĩa rĩothe mũthamaki aathiiaga hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova, arangĩri acio maathiiaga nake makuuĩte ngo icio, na thuutha ũcio magacicookia nyũmba-inĩ ya arangĩri.
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?
Ha ũhoro wa maũndũ marĩa mangĩ mothe makoniĩ wathani wa Rehoboamu na ũrĩa wothe eekire-rĩ, githĩ matiandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩa maũndũ ma athamaki a Juda?
30 And there has been war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam [for] all the days;
Hĩndĩ ciothe nĩ gwakoragwo na mbaara gatagatĩ ka Rehoboamu na Jeroboamu.
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.
Nake Rehoboamu akĩhurũka hamwe na maithe make, agĩthikwo hamwe nao thĩinĩ wa itũũra inene rĩa Daudi. Nyina eetagwo Naama, na aarĩ Mũamoni. Nake mũriũ Abija agĩtuĩka mũthamaki ithenya rĩake.
