1 Kings 14

1 At that time Abijah son of Jeroboam was sick,

‌ʻI he kuonga ko ia naʻe hoko ʻae mahaki kia ʻApisa ko e ʻalo ʻo Selopoami.

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;

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Selopoami ki hono uaifi, “ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke tuʻu hake, mo fakapulipuli koe, koeʻuhi ke ʻoua naʻa ʻilo ko e uaifi koe ʻo Selopoami; pea ke ʻalu ki Sailo; vakai, ʻoku ʻi ai ʻa ʻAhisa ko e palōfita, ʻaia naʻa ne fakahā kiate au ke u tuʻi ki he kakai ni.

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.”

Pea ʻave ʻi ho nima ha foʻi mā ʻe hongofulu, mo e ngaahi foʻi mā manifinifi, mo e hina ʻe taha ʻoe honi, pea ke ʻalu kiate ia: ʻe fakahā ʻe ia kiate koe pe ko e hā ha meʻa ʻe hoko ki he tamasiʻi.”

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.

Pea naʻe fai pehē ʻe he uaifi ʻo Selopoami, mo ne tuʻu hake, ʻo ʻalu ki Sailo, ʻo ne hoko ange ki he fale ʻo ʻAhisa. Pea naʻe ʻikai faʻa mamata ʻe ʻAhisa; he naʻe kui hono mata ko e meʻa ʻi heʻene motuʻa.

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.”

Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kia ʻAhisa, “Vakai, ʻoku haʻu ʻae uaifi ʻo Selopoami ke fehuʻi kiate koe koeʻuhi ko ʻene tama; he ʻoku mahaki ia: pea ʻe pehē mo pehē ʻa hoʻo lea kiate ia: he koeʻuhi, ʻi heʻene hū mai, te ne fai ʻe ia ʻo hangē ko ha fefine kehe ia.”

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.

Pea naʻe pehē, ʻi heʻene fanongo ʻe ʻAhisa ki he patū ʻo hono vaʻe, ʻi heʻene hū mai ʻi he matapā, naʻa ne pehē, “Hū mai, ʻa koe ko e uaifi ʻo Selopoami; ko e hā ʻoku ke fai ke ke hangē ko ha taha kehe? He kuo fekauʻi au kiate koe mo e ongoongo mamafa.

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,

‌ʻAlu, ʻo tala kia Selopoami, ‘ʻOku pehē ʻe Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, Koeʻuhi ko ʻeku hakeakiʻi koe mei he lotolotonga ʻoe kakai, pea u tuku ke ke ʻeiki koe ki hoku kakai ʻIsileli,

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,

Pea u haea mai ʻae puleʻanga mei he fale ʻo Tevita, mo foaki ia kiate koe: pea kuo ʻikai te ke tatau mo ʻeku tamaioʻeiki ko Tevita, ʻaia naʻe fai ki heʻeku ngaahi fekau, pea ne muimui mai kiate au ʻaki ʻa hono loto kotoa, ke fai angatonu pe ʻi hoku ʻao;

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—

Ka kuo lahi hake ʻa hoʻo fai kovi ʻiate kinautolu fulipē naʻe ʻi muʻa ʻiate koe: he kuo ke ʻalu mo ngaohi ʻae ngaahi ʻotua kehe, mo e ngaahi fakatātā ʻoe ukamea haka, ke fakatupu ʻa ʻeku houhau, pea kuo ke liʻaki au ki ho tuʻa:

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;

Ko ia, vakai, te u ʻomi ʻae kovi ki he fale ʻo Selopoami, pea te u motuhi meia Selopoami ʻae kau tangata kotoa pē, pea mo ia ʻoku tāpuni mo toe ʻi ʻIsileli, pea te u ʻave ʻae toenga ʻoe fale ʻo Selopoami, ʻo hangē ko e taufetuku ʻe ha tangata ʻae kinohaʻa, kaeʻoua ke ʻosiʻosi ʻaupito ia.

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.

Ko ia ʻia Selopoami ʻoku mate ʻi he kolo ʻe keina ia ʻe he fanga kulī; pea ko ia ʻe mate ʻi he ngoue ʻe keina ia ʻe he fanga manupuna; he kuo folofola ki ai ʻa Sihova.’

12 And you, rise, go to your house; in the going in of your feet to the city, the boy has died;

Ko ia ke ke tuʻu hake koe, mo ʻalu ki ho fale ʻoʻou: pea ʻoka hū atu ho vaʻe ki he kolo, ʻe mate ʻae tamasiʻi.

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.

Pea ʻe tēngihia ia ʻe ʻIsileli kotoa, mo tanu ia: he ko ia tokotaha pe ʻia Selopoami ʻe hoko ki he faʻitoka, koeʻuhi kuo ʻilo ʻiate ia ha meʻa ʻoku lelei kia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli ʻi he fale ʻo Selopoami.

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!

Pea ʻe fokotuʻu hake foki ʻe Sihova maʻana ha tuʻi ki ʻIsileli, ʻaia te ne fakaʻauha ʻae fale ʻo Selopoami ʻi he ʻaho ko ia: kae fēfē? ʻE hoko ia ʻi hono kuonga.

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;

Koeʻuhi ʻe taaʻi ʻa ʻIsileli ʻe Sihova, ʻo hangē ko e luluʻi ha vaʻakaho ʻi he vai, pea te ne taʻaki fuʻu hake ʻa ʻIsileli mei he fonua lelei ni, ʻaia naʻa ne foaki ki heʻenau ngaahi tamai, pea [te ne ]fakamovetevete kinautolu ki he tuʻa vaitafe, koeʻuhi kuo nau ngaohi ʻae ngaahi vao tapu, ke fakatupu ʻae houhau ʻo Sihova.

16 and He gives up Israel because of the sins of Jeroboam that he sinned, and that he caused Israel to sin.”

Pea te ne liʻaki ʻa ʻIsileli koeʻuhi ko e ngaahi angahala ʻa Selopoami, ʻaia naʻe fai angahala ʻe ia, pea naʻa ne fakaangahalaʻi ʻa ʻIsileli.”

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;

Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ʻae uaifi ʻo Selopoami, mo ne ʻalu, ʻo ne haʻu ki Tilisa: pea ʻi heʻene hoko mai ki he hūʻanga ʻoe matapā, naʻe mate ʻae tamasiʻi;

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.

Pea naʻa nau fai hono putu; pea naʻe tēngihia ia ʻe ʻIsileli kātoa, ʻo fakatatau mo e folofola ʻa Sihova, ʻaia naʻa ne folofolaʻaki ʻi heʻene tamaioʻeiki ko ʻAhisa ko e palōfita.

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.

Pea ko hono toe ʻoe ngaahi meʻa naʻe fai ʻe Selopoami, ʻa ʻene ngaahi tau, mo e anga ʻo ʻene pule, vakai, kuo tohi ia ʻi he tohi fakamatala ki he ngaahi tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli.

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.

Pea ko e kuonga naʻe pule ai ʻa Selopoami ko e taʻu ia ʻe uofulu ma ua: pea naʻa ne tokoto hifo fakataha ia mo ʻene ngaahi tamai, pea naʻe fetongi ia ʻi he pule ʻe Natapi ko hono foha.

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.

Pea naʻe pule ʻi Siuta ʻa Lehopoami ko e foha ʻo Solomone. Naʻe fāngofulu ma taha ʻae taʻu ʻo Lehopoami ʻi heʻene kamata pule, pea naʻa ne pule ʻi Selūsalema ʻi he taʻu ʻe hongofulu ma fitu, ʻae kolo ko ia naʻe fili ʻe Sihova mei he faʻahinga kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli, ke tuku ʻi ai ʻa hono huafa. Pea ko e hingoa ʻo ʻene faʻē ko Neama ko e fefine ʻAmoni.

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.

Pea naʻe fai kovi ʻa Siuta ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, pea naʻa nau fakatupu ʻae fuaʻa ʻiate ia ko e meʻa ʻi heʻenau ngaahi angahala ʻaia naʻa nau fai, ʻo lahi hake ʻaupito ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē naʻe fai ʻe heʻenau ngaahi tamai.

23 And they build—they also—for themselves high places, and standing-pillars, and Asherim, on every high height, and under every green tree;

He naʻa nau langa foki ʻekinautolu ʻae ngaahi potu māʻolunga mo e ngaahi tamapua, mo e ngaahi vao tapu, ʻi he tumutumu ʻoe moʻunga kotoa pē, pea ʻi he lolo ʻakau mata kotoa pē.

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.

Pea naʻe ai ʻae kakai foki ʻi he fonua naʻe angafakasotoma: pea naʻa nau fai ʻo fakatatau mo e ngaahi meʻa fakalielia kotoa pē ʻoe ngaahi puleʻanga ʻaia naʻe kapusi atu mei he ʻao ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli.

25 And it comes to pass, in the fifth year of King Rehoboam, Shishak king of Egypt has gone up against Jerusalem,

Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē ʻi hono nima ʻoe taʻu ʻoe tuʻi ko Lehopoami, naʻe haʻu ʻa Sisaki ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsipite ke ne tauʻi ʻa Selūsalema.

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.

Pea naʻa ne ʻave ʻae ngaahi meʻa mahuʻinga ʻoe fale ʻo Sihova, mo e koloa ʻi he fale ʻoe tuʻi: ʻio, naʻa ne ʻave kotoa pē: pea naʻa ne ʻave ʻae ngaahi pā koula ʻaia naʻe ngaohi ʻe Solomone.

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,

Pea naʻe ngaohi ʻe he tuʻi ko Lehopoami ʻae ngaahi pā palasa ko hono fetongi, ʻo ne tuku ia ki he nima ʻoe ʻeiki naʻe pule ki he kau leʻo, ʻaia naʻe leʻohi ʻae matapā ʻoe fale ʻoe tuʻi.

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.

Pea naʻe fai ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene hū atu ʻae tuʻi ki he fale ʻo Sihova, naʻe fua atu ia ʻe he kau leʻo, pea nau toe ʻomi ia ki he potu fale ʻoe kau leʻo.

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?

Pea ko eni, ko hono toe ʻoe ngaahi ngāue ʻa Lehopoami, mo ia kotoa pē naʻa ne fai, ʻikai kuo tohi ia ʻi he tohi fakamatala ki he ngaahi tuʻi ʻo Siuta?

30 And there has been war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam [for] all the days;

Pea naʻe fai ʻae tau ʻe Lehopoami mo Selopoami ʻi hona ngaahi ʻaho kotoa pē.

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.

Pea naʻe mohe ʻa Lehopoami mo ʻene ngaahi tamai, pea naʻe tanu ia fakataha mo ʻene ngaahi tamai ʻi he Kolo ʻo Tevita. Pea ko e hingoa ʻo ʻene faʻē ko Neama ko e fefine ʻAmoni. Pea naʻe hoko mo ia ʻi he pule ʻa ʻApisami ko hono foha.
