2 Chronicles 11
1 And Rehoboam comes to Jerusalem, and assembles the house of Judah and Benjamin—one hundred and eighty thousand chosen warriors—to fight with Israel, to bring back the kingdom to Rehoboam.
Ary nony tonga tany Jerosalema Rehoboama, dia novoriny ny taranak’ i Joda sy Benjamina, dia miaramila valo alina amby iray hetsy voafantina, hiady amin’ ny Isiraely hampody ny fanjakana ho an-dRehoboama.
2 And a word of YHWH is to Shemaiah, a man of God, saying,
Kanjo kosa ny tenin’ i Jehovah tonga tamin’ i Semaia, lehilahin’ Andriamanitra, ka nanao hoe:
3 “Speak to Rehoboam son of Solomon king of Judah, and to all Israel in Judah and Benjamin, saying,
Mitenena amin-dRehoboama, zanak’ i Solomona, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, sy amin’ ny Isiraely rehetra amin’ ny Joda sy ny Benjamina hoe:
4 Thus said YHWH: You do not go up nor fight with your brothers! Let each return to his house, for this thing has been from Me”; and they hear the words of YHWH, and turn back from going against Jeroboam.
Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Aza mandeha hiady amin’ ny rahalahinareo, fa samia mody any an-tranony avy ianareo, fa avy amiko izao zavatra izao. Ary nihaino ny tenin’ i Jehovah ny olona, ka dia samy lasa nody, fa tsy nandeha hamely an’ i Jeroboama.
5 And Rehoboam dwells in Jerusalem, and builds cities for a bulwark in Judah,
Ary Rehoboama nitoetra tany Jerosalema ka nanamboatra tanàna mimanda tany Joda.
6 indeed, he builds Beth-Lehem, and Etam, and Tekoa,
Ny namboariny dia izao: Betlehema sy Etama sy Tekoa
7 and Beth-Zur, and Shocho, and Adullam,
sy Beti-zora sy Soko sy Adolama
8 and Gath, and Mareshah, and Ziph,
sy Gata sy Maresa sy Zifa
9 and Adoraim, and Lachish, and Azekah,
sy Adoraima sy Lakisy sy Azeka
10 and Zorah, and Aijalon, and Hebron, that [are] in Judah and in Benjamin, cities of bulwarks.
sy Zora sy Aialona ary Hebrona, izay tanàna mimanda ao amin’ ny Joda sy ny Benjamina.
11 And he strengthens the bulwarks, and puts leaders in them, and treasures of food, and oil, and wine,
Ary nanamafy ny tanàna mimanda izy sady nametraka mpanapaka tao aminy ary nanisy hanina sy diloilo ary divay betsaka.
12 and in each and every city [he puts] bucklers and spears, and strengthens them very greatly; and he has Judah and Benjamin.
Ary tamin’ ny isam-bohitra dia nasiany ampinga lehibe sy lefona avokoa, sady nohamafiny dia nohamafiny ny vohitra; ary ny Joda sy ny Benjamina no nomba azy.
13 And the priests and the Levites that [are] in all Israel have stationed themselves by him, out of all their border,
Ary ny mpisorona sy ny Levita izay teo amin’ ny Isiraely rehetra dia nanatona azy avy tany amin’ ny fari-taniny avy.
14 for the Levites have left their outskirts and their possession, and they come to Judah and to Jerusalem, for Jeroboam and his sons have cast them off from acting as priests for YHWH,
Fa ny Levita nandao ny tanànany sy ny tany manodidina azy ka nankany Joda sy Jerosalema (fa Jeroboama sy ny zanany efa nanaisotra azy tsy ho mpisorona ho an’ i Jehovah,
15 and he establishes for himself priests for high places, and for goat [idols] and for calf [idols] that he made.
fa nanendry mpisorona ho amin’ ny fitoerana avo sy ho an’ ny Seïrima ary ho an’ ny ombilahy kely izay nataony).
16 And after them, out of all the tribes of Israel, those giving their heart to seek YHWH, God of Israel, have come to Jerusalem to sacrifice to YHWH, God of their father.
Ary na iza na iza tamin’ ny firenen’ Isiraely rehetra no nanolotra ny fony hitady an’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, dia nanaraka ireo nankany Jerosalema hamono zavatra hatao fanatitra ho an’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny razany.
17 And they strengthen the kingdom of Judah, and strengthen Rehoboam son of Solomon, for three years, because they walked in the way of David and Solomon for three years.
Ka dia nampahery ny fanjakan’ ny Joda izy sady nampahavitrika an-dRehoboama, zanak’ i Solomona, telo taona; fa nandeha tamin’ ny lalan’ i Davida sy Solomona telo taona izy.
18 And Rehoboam takes a wife for himself, Mahalath, child of Jerimoth son of David, [and of] Abigail daughter of Eliab son of Jesse.
Ary Rehoboama naka an’ i Mahalota, zanakavavin’ i Jerimota, zanak’ i Davida, sy Abihaila, zanakavavin’ i Eliaba, zanak’ i Jese, ho vadiny,
19 And she bears sons to him: Jeush, and Shamaria, and Zaham.
izay nahazoany zaza, dia Jeosy sy Semaria ary Zahama.
20 And after her he has taken Maachah daughter of Absalom, and she bears to him Abijah, and Attai, and Ziza, and Shelomith.
Ary nanarakaraka azy, dia nalainy koa Imaka, zanakavavin’ i Absaloma, izay niteraka an’ i Abia sy Atahy sy Ziza ary Selomita taminy.
21 And Rehoboam loves Maachah daughter of Absalom above all his wives and his concubines—for he has taken eighteen wives and sixty concubines—and he begets twenty-eight sons and sixty daughters.
Ary Rehoboama tia an’ Imaka, zanakavavin’ i Absaloma, mihoatra noho ny vadiny sy ny vaditsindranony rehetra (fa naka vady valo ambin’ ny folo sy vaditsindrano enim-polo izy ka niteraka lahy valo amby roa-polo sy vavy enim-polo).
22 And Rehoboam appoints Abijah son of Maachah for head, for leader among his brothers, for to cause him to reign.
Ary Abia, zanakalahin’ Imaka, no nataon-dRehoboama lohany ho mpanapaka ny rahalahiny; fa izy no efa nokasainy hampanjakaina.
23 And he has understanding, and disperses from all his sons to all lands of Judah and Benjamin, to all cities of the bulwarks, and gives provision in abundance to them; and he asks for a multitude of wives [for them].
Ary hendry izy ka nampiely ny zanany eran’ ny tanin’ ny Joda sy ny Benjamina rehetra, dia tany amin’ ny tanàna mimanda rehetra, ka nomeny hanina betsaka sady nitadiavany vady maro.
