1 Kings 14
1 At the time that he became sick Abijah [the] son of Jeroboam.
Saa ɛberɛ no, Yeroboam babarima Abia yaree dendeenden.
2 And he said Jeroboam to wife his arise please and you will disguise yourself and not people will know that (you *Q(K)*) [are] [the] wife of Jeroboam and you will go Shiloh there! [is] there Ahijah the prophet he he spoke on me to king over the people this.
Enti, Yeroboam ka kyerɛɛ ne yere sɛ, “Sesa wo ho, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a, obiara renhunu wo sɛ wone ɔhemmaa no. Na kɔ odiyifoɔ Ahiya, ɔbarima a ɔka kyerɛɛ me sɛ mɛdi ɔhene no, nkyɛn wɔ Silo.
3 And you will take in hand your ten bread[s] and cakes and a jar of honey and you will go to him he he will tell to you what? will it happen to the lad.
Fa burodo mua edu, ɔfam ne ɛwoɔ akɔtoa kɔkyɛ no, na bisa no deɛ ɛbɛba abarimaa no so.”
4 And she did thus [the] wife of Jeroboam and she arose and she went Shiloh and she went [the] house of Ahijah and Ahijah not he was able to see for they were fixed eyes his from old age his.
Na Yeroboam yere no kɔɔ Ahiya fie wɔ Silo. Saa ɛberɛ no na wabɔ akɔkoraa a ɔnhunu adeɛ.
5 And Yahweh he had said to Ahijah here! [the] wife of Jeroboam [is] about to come to seek a word from with you concerning son her for [is] sick he like this and like this you will speak to her and it may be when comes she and she [will be] acted as a stranger.
Nanso, na Awurade aka akyerɛ Ahiya sɛ, “Yeroboam yere bɛba ha, na ɔbɛhyɛ da ayɛ ne ho sɛ obi foforɔ. Ɔbɛbisa wo ne babarima no ho asɛm, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔyare dendeenden. Sɛ ɛba saa a, fa mmuaeɛ a mede bɛma wo no ma no.”
6 And it was when heard Ahijah [the] sound of feet her coming in the entrance and he said come O wife of Jeroboam why? this [are] you acting as a stranger and I [have been] sent to you hard.
Na Ahiya tee ne nan ase wɔ ɛpono ano no, ɔfrɛɛ sɛ, “Yeroboam yere, bra mu! Adɛn enti na woahyɛ da ayɛ wo ho sɛ obi foforɔ?” Na ɔka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Mewɔ asɛmmɔne ka kyerɛ wo.
7 Go say to Jeroboam thus he says Yahweh [the] God of Israel because that I raised up you from among the people and I made you a ruler over people my Israel.
Fa saa nkra yi a ɛfiri Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn, nkyɛn kɔma wo kunu Yeroboam sɛ, ‘Mepagyaa wo firi mpapahwekwaa mu, de wo bɛsii me nkurɔfoɔ Israel so ɔhene.
8 And I tore away the kingdom from [the] house of David and I gave it to you and not you have been like servant my David who he kept commandments my and who he walked after me with all heart his to do only the right in view my.
Metuu ahemman no ase firii Dawid fie, de maa wo. Nanso, woammu wo bra, te sɛ me ɔsomfoɔ Dawid a ɔdii mʼahyɛdeɛ so a ɔde nʼakoma nyinaa dii mʼakyi, na daa ɔyɛɛ biribiara a mepɛ sɛ ɔyɛ no.
9 And you have done evil to act more than all [those] who they were before you and you have gone and you have made for yourself gods other and molten images to provoke to anger me and me you have cast behind back your.
Bɔne a woayɛ no dɔɔso kyɛn wɔn a wɔtenaa ase ansa na wɔrewo woɔ no. Woayɛ anyame afoforɔ ma ɛnam so ama me bo afu wo, wo sikakɔkɔɔ nantwie mma no enti. Na ɛsiane sɛ woadane wʼakyi akyerɛ me enti,
10 Therefore here I [am] about to bring calamity to [the] house of Jeroboam and I will cut off to Jeroboam [one who] urinates on a wall shut up and freed in Israel and I will sweep away behind [the] house of Jeroboam just as someone sweeps away dung until is complete it.
mede amanehunu bɛba wo fie ahennie nnidisoɔ so, na makum wo mmammarima nyinaa, akoa ne deɛ ɔdi ne ho so nso. Mɛhye wʼahennie nnidisoɔ no ase, sɛdeɛ obi hye wura ma aseɛ tu koraa no.
11 The [one who] dies of Jeroboam in the city they will devour the dogs and the [one who] dies in the open country they will devour [the] bird[s] of the heavens for Yahweh he has spoken.
Me, Awurade, meka ntam sɛ, wo fiefoɔ a wɔbɛwuwu wɔ kuro no mu no, nkraman na wɔbɛwe wɔn ɛnam, na wɔn a wɔbɛwuwu wiram no nso, apete na wɔbɛsosɔ wɔn ɛnam.’”
12 And you arise go to house your when go feet your the city towards and he will die the child.
Na Ahiya ka kyerɛɛ Yeroboam yere sɛ, “Kɔ efie, na sɛ wowura kuro no mu ara pɛ a, abɔfra no bɛwu.
13 And they will mourn for him all Israel and they will bury him for this [one] to only him he will go of Jeroboam into a grave because it was found in him something good to Yahweh [the] God of Israel in [the] house of Jeroboam.
Na Israel nyinaa bɛsu no, na wɔasie no. Ɔno nko ne onipa a ɔfiri mo fie a wɔbɛsie no yie, na saa abɔfra no nko na Awurade, Israel Onyankopɔn, hunu no sɛ ade pa wɔ Yeroboam fiefoɔ nyinaa mu.
14 And he will raise up Yahweh for himself a king over Israel who he will cut off [the] house of Jeroboam this the day and what? also now.
Na Awurade bɛpagya ɔhene adi Israel so. Ɔno na ɔbɛtɔre Yeroboam fiefoɔ ase. Saa asɛm no bɛsi ɛnnɛ yi ara, saa dɔnhwereɛ yi ara mu.
15 And he will strike down Yahweh Israel just as it sways reed in the water and he will pluck up Israel from on the ground good this which he gave to ancestors their and he will scatter them from [the] other side of the River because that they have made Asherah poles their provoking to anger Yahweh.
Na Awurade bɛwoso Israel te sɛ sibire a ɛhinhim wɔ asuwa ani. Ɔbɛtutu Israelfoɔ ase afiri saa asase pa a ɔde maa wɔn agyanom no so. Na ɔbɛbɔ wɔn apete, atra Asubɔnten Eufrate, ɛfiri sɛ, wɔnam som a wɔsom Asera afɔrebukyia no so ahyɛ Awurade abufuo.
16 So he may give up Israel on account of [the] sins of Jeroboam which he has sinned and which he has caused to sin Israel.
Ɔbɛto Israel asaworam, ɛfiri sɛ, Yeroboam yɛɛ bɔne, nam so maa Israel nyinaa ne no yɛɛ bɔne.”
17 And she arose [the] wife of Jeroboam and she went and she came Tirzah towards she [was] coming at [the] threshold of the house and the lad he died.
Na Yeroboam yere sane kɔɔ Tirsa. Na ɛberɛ a ɔwuraa ne fie no, abɔfra no wuiɛ.
18 And they buried him and they mourned for him all Israel according to [the] word of Yahweh which he spoke by [the] hand of servant his Ahijah the prophet.
Ɛberɛ a Israelfoɔ siee no no, wɔsuu no sɛdeɛ Awurade nam odiyifoɔ Ahiya so hyɛeɛ no.
19 And [the] rest of [the] matters of Jeroboam which he waged war and which he reigned there they [are] written on [the] scroll of [the] matters of the days of [the] kings of Israel.
Yeroboam ahennie ho nsɛm nkaeɛ, nʼakodie nyinaa ne ɛkwan a ɔfaa so buu ɔman no nyinaa no, wɔatwerɛ agu Israel Ahemfo Abakɔsɛm Nwoma Mu.
20 And the days which he reigned Jeroboam [were] twenty and two year[s] and he lay down with ancestors his and he became king Nadab son his in place of him.
Yeroboam dii adeɛ wɔ Israel mfeɛ aduonu mmienu. Ɔwuiɛ no, ne babarima Nadab na ɔdii nʼadeɛ sɛ ɔhene.
21 And Rehoboam [the] son of Solomon he reigned in Judah [was] a son of forty and one year[s] Rehoboam when became king he and seven-teen year[s] - he reigned in Jerusalem the city where he had chosen Yahweh to put name his there from all [the] tribes of Israel and [the] name of mother his [was] Naamah the Ammonite [woman].
Na Salomo babarima Rehoboam na na ɔdi ɔhene wɔ Yuda. Ɛberɛ a ɔdii adeɛ no, na wadi mfeɛ aduanan baako, na ɔdii adeɛ mfeɛ dunson wɔ Yerusalem, kuro a na Awurade ayi wɔ Israel mmusuakuo no nyinaa mu, sɛ ɔde rehyɛ ne din animuonyam. Na Rehoboam maame din de Naama a ɔyɛ Amonni.
22 And it did Judah the evil in [the] eyes of Yahweh and they made jealous him more than all that they had done ancestors their by sins their which they sinned.
Ɛberɛ a na Rehoboam di adeɛ no, nnipa a wɔwɔ Yuda no yɛɛ bɔne Awurade anim, maa ne bo fuu wɔ wɔn bɔne no ho. Na saa bɔne no sene deɛ wɔn agyanom no yɛeɛ mpo.
23 And they built also they for themselves high places and sacred pillars and Asherah poles on every hill high and under every tree luxuriant.
Wɔsisii abosomfie, gyinaa nnannua a wɔate ho ne Asera afɔrebukyia wɔ bepɔ biara so ne dutan frɔmfrɔm biara ase.
24 And also cult prostitute[s] he was in the land they did according to all the abominations of the nations which he had dispossessed Yahweh from before [the] people of Israel.
Mpo, na abosomfie mmarima nnwamanfoɔ wɔ asase no so mmaa nyinaa. Nnipa no suasuaa akyiwadeɛ ahodoɔ a amanaman a wɔsom abosom no yɛeɛ enti a Awurade pamoo wɔn firii asase no so maa Israelfoɔ no.
25 And it was in the year fifth of the king Rehoboam he came up (Shishak *Q(K)*) [the] king of Egypt on Jerusalem.
Rehoboam dii adeɛ ne mfeɛ enum so no, Misraimhene Sisak bɛto hyɛɛ Yerusalem so.
26 And he took [the] treasures of [the] house of Yahweh and [the] treasures of [the] house of the king and everything he took and he took all [the] shields of gold which he had made Solomon.
Ɔbɔ wuraa Awurade Asɔredan no mu ne ahemfie hɔ baabiara, wiaa biribiara a sikakɔkɔɔ akyɛm a Salomo yɛeɛ no ka ho.
27 And he made the king Rehoboam in place of them shields of bronze and he entrusted [them] on [the] hand of [the] commanders of the runners who guarded [the] entrance of [the] house of the king.
Akyire yi, Rehoboam yɛɛ kɔbere akyɛm de sii anan, na ɔde hyɛɛ ahemfie awɛmfoɔ no nsa sɛ wɔnhwɛ so.
28 And it was as often as went the king [the] house of Yahweh they carried them the runners and they returned them to [the] guardroom of the runners.
Ɛberɛ biara a ɔhene no kɔ Awurade Asɔredan mu hɔ no, awɛmfoɔ no soa kɔ hɔ bi, na sɛ ɔwie na ɔreba a, wɔsane de bɛgu awɛmfoɔ ɛdan no mu.
29 And [the] rest of [the] matters of Rehoboam and all that he did ¿ not [are] they written on [the] scroll of [the] matters of the days of [the] kings of Judah.
Na Rehoboam ahennie ho nsɛm nkaeɛ no ne dwuma a ɔdiiɛ no deɛ, wɔatwerɛ ne nyinaa wɔ Yuda Ahemfo Abakɔsɛm Nwoma no mu.
30 And war it was between Rehoboam and between Jeroboam all the days.
Daa na ɔko da Rehoboam ne Yeroboam ntam.
31 And he lay down Rehoboam with ancestors his and he was buried with ancestors his in [the] city of David and [the] name of mother his [was] Naamah the Ammonite [woman] and he became king Abijam son his in place of him.
Ɛberɛ a Rehoboam wuiɛ no, wɔsiee no wɔ nʼagyanom koraberɛ wɔ Dawid kurom. Na ne maame din de Naama a ɔyɛ Amonni baa. Afei, ne babarima a ne din de Abiyam na ɔdii nʼadeɛ sɛ ɔhene.
