1 Kings 12
1 And he went Rehoboam Shechem for Shechem it had gone all Israel to make king him.
Rehobowamu anapita ku Sekemu, pakuti Aisraeli onse nʼkuti atapita kumeneko kukamulonga ufumu.
2 And it was when heard - Jeroboam [the] son of Nebat and he still he [was] in Egypt where he had fled because of the king Solomon and he dwelt Jeroboam in Egypt.
Yeroboamu mwana wa Nebati anamva zimenezi. Nthawi imeneyo nʼkuti Yeroboamuyo akukhala ku Igupto, pakuti atathawa Mfumu Solomoni iyeyo anakakhala ku Igupto.
3 And people sent and they summoned him (and he came *Q(K)*) Jeroboam and all [the] assembly of Israel and they spoke to Rehoboam saying.
Tsono anthu anayitanitsa Yeroboamu, ndipo iye pamodzi ndi gulu lonse la ku Israeli anapita kwa Rehobowamu ndipo anamuwuza kuti,
4 Father your he made hard yoke our and you now lighten some of [the] service of father your hard and some of yoke his heavy which he put on us and we will serve you.
“Abambo anu anatisenzetsa goli lolemetsa kwambiri, koma inu chepetsani ntchito yowawa pa ife ndipo peputsani goli lolemetsa limene anatisenzetsa. Mukatero tidzakutumikirani.”
5 And he said to them go yet three days and return to me and they went the people.
Rehobowamu anayankha kuti, “Pitani, ndipo pakatha masiku atatu, mudzabwerenso.” Choncho anthuwo anapitadi.
6 And he consulted the king Rehoboam with the elders who they were standing with [the] presence of Solomon father his when was he alive saying how? [are] you counseling to bring back the people this word.
Ndipo Mfumu Rehobowamu anapempha nzeru kwa akuluakulu amene ankatumikira Solomoni abambo ake pamene anali ndi moyo. Iye anawafunsa kuti, “Kodi mungandilangize zotani kuti ndiwayankhe anthu amenewa?”
7 (And they spoke *Q(K)*) to him saying if this day you will be a servant of the people this and you will serve them and you will answer them and you will speak to them words kind and they will be of you servants all the days.
Iwo anayankha kuti, “Ngati lero mudzakhala mtumiki wa anthu amenewa ndi kuwatumikira ndipo mukawayankha bwino, iwowo adzakhala atumiki anu nthawi zonse.”
8 And he forsook [the] counsel of the elders which they had counseled him and he consulted with the young men who they had grown up with him who [were] the [ones who] stood before him.
Koma Rehobowamu anakana malangizo amene akuluakuluwo anamupatsa ndipo anafunsira nzeru kwa anyamata anzake amene anakulira nawo limodzi omwe ankamutumikira.
9 And he said to them what? [are] you counseling and we may bring back word the people this which they have spoken to me saying lighten some of the yoke which he put father your on us.
Iye anawafunsa kuti, “Kodi malangizo anu ngotani? Kodi ndiwayankhe chiyani anthu amene akunena kwa ine kuti, ‘Peputsani goli limene abambo anu anatisenzetsa’?”
10 And they spoke to him the young men who they had grown up with him saying thus you will say to the people this which they have spoken to you saying father your he made heavy yoke our and you lighten from on us thus you will speak to them little finger my it is thick more than [the] loins of father my.
Anyamata anzake amene anakula nawo limodzi aja anamuyankha kuti, “Anthu amene ananena kwa iwe kuti, ‘Abambo anu anatisenzetsa goli lolemetsa, koma inu peputsani goli lathu,’ uwawuze kuti ‘Chala changa chakanise nʼchachikulu kupambana chiwuno cha abambo anga.
11 And now father my he loaded on you a yoke heavy and I I will add to yoke your father my he disciplined you with whips and I I will discipline you with scorpions.
Abambo anga ankakusenzetsani goli lolemetsa koma ine ndidzachititsa kuti likhale lolemera kwambiri. Abambo anga ankakukwapulani ndi zikoti wamba koma ine ndidzakukwapulani ndi zinkhanira.’”
12 (And he came *Q(k)*) Jeroboam and all the people to Rehoboam on the day third just as he had spoken the king saying return to me on the day third.
Patapita masiku atatu, Yeroboamu pamodzi ndi anthu onse anabwera kwa Rehobowamu, monga momwe inanenera mfumu kuti, “Mudzabwere pakatha masiku atatu.”
13 And he answered the king the people hard and he forsook [the] counsel of the elders which they had counseled him.
Mfumuyo inawayankha anthuwo mwankhanza. Kukana malangizo amene akuluakulu anayipatsa.
14 And he spoke to them according to [the] counsel of the young men saying father my he made heavy yoke your and I I will add to yoke your father my he disciplined you with whips and I I will discipline you with scorpions.
Anatsatira malangizo amene anyamata anzake anamupatsa ndipo anati “Abambo anga ankakusenzetsani goli lolemetsa. Ine ndidzachititsa kuti likhale lolemera kwambiri. Abambo anga ankakukwapulani ndi zikoti wamba koma ine ndidzakukwapulani ndi zinkhanira.”
15 And not he listened the king to the people for it was a turn from with Yahweh so as to establish word his which he had spoken Yahweh by [the] hand of Ahijah Shilonite to Jeroboam [the] son of Nebat.
Choncho mfumu sinamvere pempho la anthuwo, pakuti zinthu izi zinali zochokera kwa Yehova, kukwaniritsa mawu amene Yehova anayankhula kwa Yeroboamu mwana wa Nebati kudzera mwa Ahiya wa ku Silo.
16 And it saw all Israel that not he had listened the king to them and they brought back the people the king word - saying what? [belongs] to us portion in David and not an inheritance in [the] son of Jesse to tents your O Israel now consider own house your O David and it went Israel to tents its.
Aisraeli onse ataona kuti mfumu yakana kumva zopempha zawo, iwo anayankha mfumu kuti, “Kodi ife tili ndi gawo lanji mwa Davide, ndi gawo lanjinso mwa mwana wa Yese? Inu Aisraeli, bwererani ku matenti anu! Ziyangʼanira nyumba yako, Iwe Davide!” Kotero Aisraeli anachoka napita ku nyumba zawo.
17 And [the] people of Israel who were dwelling in [the] cities of Judah and he reigned over them Rehoboam.
Koma Aisraeli amene ankakhala mʼmizinda ya Yuda ankalamuliridwa ndi Rehobowamu.
18 And he sent the king Rehoboam Adoram who [was] over the forced labor and they stoned all Israel him stone[s] and he died and the king Rehoboam he proved himself strong to go up in the chariot to flee Jerusalem.
Mfumu Rehobowamu anatuma Adoramu amene ankayangʼanira ntchito yathangata, koma Aisraeli onse anamugeda ndi miyala mpaka kumupha. Koma Mfumu Rehobowamu anakwera msangamsanga galeta wake nathawira ku Yerusalemu.
19 And they have rebelled Israel against [the] house of David until the day this.
Choncho Aisraeli akhala akuwukira nyumba ya Davide mpaka lero lino.
20 And it was when heard all Israel that he had returned Jeroboam and they sent and they called him to the congregation and they made king him over all Israel not anyone was after [the] house of David except [the] tribe of Judah to only it.
Aisraeli onse atamva kuti Yeroboamu wabwerera kuchokera ku Igupto, anatumiza mawu okamuyitana kuti abwere ku msonkhano ndipo anamuyika kukhala mfumu ya Aisraeli onse. Fuko la Yuda lokha ndi lomwe linkatsatira nyumba ya Davide.
21 (And he came *Q(K)*) Rehoboam Jerusalem and he called together all [the] house of Judah and [the] tribe of Benjamin one hundred and eighty thousand chosen [man] maker[s] of war to do battle with [the] house of Israel to restore the kingship to Rehoboam [the] son of Solomon.
Rehobowamu atafika ku Yerusalemu, anasonkhanitsa nyumba yonse ya Yuda ndi fuko la Benjamini, nasankha ankhondo okwanira 180,000, kuti akamenyane ndi nyumba ya Israeli kuti amubwezere Rehobowamu mwana wa Solomoni ufumu wake.
22 And it came [the] word of God to Shemaiah [the] man of God saying.
Koma Mulungu anayankhula ndi Semaya, munthu wa Mulungu kuti,
23 Say to Rehoboam [the] son of Solomon [the] king of Judah and to all [the] house of Judah and Benjamin and [the] rest of the people saying.
“Nena kwa Rehobowamu mwana wa Solomoni mfumu ya Yuda, kwa nyumba yonse ya Yuda ndi Benjamini, ndiponso kwa anthu ena onse kuti,
24 Thus he says Yahweh not you must go up and not you must do battle! with countrymen your [the] people of Israel return each to own house his for from with me it has occurred the thing this and they listened to [the] word of Yahweh and they turned back to go according to [the] word of Yahweh.
‘Yehova akuti: Musapite kukamenyana ndi abale anu Aisraeli. Aliyense wa inu abwerere kwawo, pakuti zimenezi ndachita ndine.’” Choncho anthuwo anamvera mawu a Yehova ndi kubwerera kwawo, monga analamulira Yehova.
25 And he built Jeroboam Shechem in [the] hill country of Ephraim and he dwelt in it and he went out from there and he built Penuel.
Tsono Yeroboamu anamanga mzinda wa Sekemu mʼdziko la mapiri la Efereimu ndipo anakhala kumeneko. Kuchokera kumeneko anapita kukamanga mzinda wa Penueli.
26 And he said Jeroboam in heart his now it will return the kingdom to [the] house of David.
Yeroboamu anaganiza mu mtima mwake kuti, “Ndithu, ufumuwu udzabwereranso ku nyumba ya Davide.
27 If it will go up - the people this to make sacrifices in [the] house of Yahweh in Jerusalem and it will return [the] heart of the people this to to lord their to Rehoboam [the] king of Judah and they will kill me and they will return to Rehoboam [the] king of Judah.
Ngati anthuwa azipitabe kukapereka nsembe ku Nyumba ya Yehova ku Yerusalemu, adzayambanso kutsatira mbuye wawo Rehobowamu, mfumu ya Yuda. Adzandipha ndi kubwerera kwa Mfumu Rehobowamu.”
28 And he took counsel the king and he made two calves of gold and he said to them [too] much for you for going up Jerusalem here! gods your O Israel which they brought up you from [the] land of Egypt.
Itapempha nzeru, mfumuyo inapanga mafano awiri a ana angʼombe. Mfumuyo inati kwa anthuwo, “Mwakhala mukupita ku Yerusalemu nthawi yayitali. Iwe Israeli, nayi milungu yako imene inakutulutsa mʼdziko la Igupto.”
29 And he set the one [calf] in Beth-el and the one [calf] he put in Dan.
Fano lina analiyika ku Beteli ndipo lina analiyika ku Dani.
30 And it became the thing this sin and they went the people before the one [calf] to Dan.
Ndipo zimenezi zinachimwitsa anthu pakuti anthu ankapita mpaka ku Dani kukapembedza fano limene linali kumeneko.
31 And he made a house of high places and he appointed priests from [the] ends of the people who not they were from [the] descendants of Levi.
Yeroboamu anamanga Nyumba za Mulungu pa malo azipembedzo nasankha ansembe kuchokera pakati pa anthu wamba, ngakhale sanali Alevi.
32 And he appointed Jeroboam - a festival in the month eighth on [the] fif-teen day - of the month like the festival - which [was] in Judah and he offered up on the altar so he did in Beth-el to sacrifice to the calves which he had made and he stationed in Beth-el [the] priests of the high places which he had made.
Iye anakhazikitsa chikondwerero pa tsiku la 15 la mwezi wachisanu ndi chitatu, lofanana ndi tsiku la chikondwerero cha ku Yuda, ndipo ankapereka nsembe pa guwa. Izi ankachita ku Beteli, kupereka nsembe kwa ana angʼombe amene anapanga. Ndipo ku Beteliko anayikako ansembe pa malo achipembedzo amene anamanga.
33 And he offered up on the altar - which he had made in Beth-el on [the] fif-teen day in the month eighth in the month which he had devised (from own heart his *Q(K)*) and he appointed a festival for [the] people of Israel and he offered up on the altar to make smoke.
Tsiku la 15 la mwezi wachisanu ndi chitatu, mwezi umene anawusankha yekha, anapereka nsembe pa guwa limene analimanga ku Beteli. Motero anakhazikitsa chikondwerero cha Aisraeli ndipo iye ankapita kukapereka nsembe yofukiza lubani pa guwa.
