2 Chronicles 11
1 And he came Rehoboam Jerusalem and he called together [the] house of Judah and Benjamin one hundred and eighty thousand chosen [man] maker[s] of war to do battle with Israel to restore the kingdom to Rehoboam.
venit autem Roboam in Hierusalem et convocavit universam domum Iuda et Beniamin in centum octoginta milibus electorum atque bellantium ut dimicaret contra Israhel et converteret ad se regnum suum
2 And it came [the] word of Yahweh to Shemaiah [the] man of God saying.
factusque est sermo Domini ad Semeiam hominem Dei dicens
3 Say to Rehoboam [the] son of Solomon [the] king of Judah and to all Israel in Judah and Benjamin saying.
loquere ad Roboam filium Salomonis regem Iuda et ad universum Israhel qui est in Iuda et Beniamin
4 Thus he says Yahweh not you must go up and not you must do battle with countrymen your return everyone to own house his for from with me it has occurred the thing this and they obeyed [the] words of Yahweh and they turned back from going against Jeroboam.
haec dicit Dominus non ascendetis neque pugnabitis contra fratres vestros revertatur unusquisque in domum suam quia mea hoc gestum est voluntate qui cum audissent sermonem Domini reversi sunt nec perrexerunt contra Hieroboam
5 And he dwelt Rehoboam in Jerusalem and he built cities to fortification in Judah.
habitavit autem Roboam in Hierusalem et aedificavit civitates muratas in Iuda
6 And he built Beth-lehem and Etam and Tekoa.
extruxitque Bethleem et Aetham et Thecue
7 And Beth Zur and Socoh and Adullam.
Bethsur quoque et Soccho et Odollam
8 And Gath and Mareshah and Ziph.
necnon Geth et Maresa et Ziph
9 And Adoraim and Lachish and Azekah.
sed et Aduram et Lachis et Azecha
10 And Zorah and Aijalon and Hebron which [were] in Judah and in Benjamin cities of fortifications.
Saraa quoque et Ahilon et Hebron quae erant in Iuda et Beniamin civitates munitissimas
11 And he strengthened the fortifications and he put in them commanders and supplies of food and oil and wine.
cumque clausisset eas muris posuit in eis principes ciborumque horrea hoc est olei et vini
12 And [were] in every city and a city body shields and spears and he made strong them to abundance exceedingly and it belonged to him Judah and Benjamin.
sed et in singulis urbibus fecit armamentaria scutorum et hastarum firmavitque eas multa diligentia et imperavit super Iudam et Beniamin
13 And the priests and the Levites who [were] in all Israel they took their stand at him from all territory their.
sacerdotes autem et Levitae qui erant in universo Israhel venerunt ad eum de cunctis sedibus suis
14 For they forsook the Levites pasture lands their and property their and they went to Judah and to Jerusalem for he had rejected them Jeroboam and sons his from serving as priests to Yahweh.
relinquentes suburbana et possessiones suas et transeuntes ad Iudam et Hierusalem eo quod abiecisset eos Hieroboam et posteri eius ne sacerdotio Domini fungerentur
15 And he appointed for himself priests for the high places and for the goats and for the calves which he had made.
qui constituit sibi sacerdotes excelsorum et daemonum vitulorumque quos fecerat
16 And after them from all [the] tribes of Israel those [who] set heart their to seek Yahweh [the] God of Israel they came Jerusalem to sacrifice to Yahweh [the] God of ancestors their.
sed et de cunctis tribubus Israhel quicumque dederant cor suum ut quaererent Dominum Deum Israhel venerunt Hierusalem ad immolandas victimas Domino Deo patrum suorum
17 And they strengthened [the] kingdom of Judah and they strengthened Rehoboam [the] son of Solomon for years three for they walked in [the] way of David and Solomon for years three.
et roboraverunt regnum Iuda et confirmaverunt Roboam filium Salomonis per tres annos ambulaverunt enim in viis David et Salomonis annis tantum tribus
18 And he took for himself Rehoboam a wife Mahalath ([the] daughter of *Q(K)*) Jerimoth [the] son of David Abihail [the] daughter of Eliab [the] son of Jesse.
duxit autem Roboam uxorem Maalath filiam Hierimuth filii David Abiail quoque filiam Heliab filii Isai
19 And she bore to him sons Jeush and Shemariah and Zaham.
quae peperit ei filios Ieus et Somoriam et Zoom
20 And after her he took Maacah [the] daughter of Absalom and she bore to him Abijah and Attai and Ziza and Shelomith.
post hanc quoque accepit Maacha filiam Absalom quae peperit ei Abia et Ethai et Ziza et Salumith
21 And he loved Rehoboam Maacah [the] daughter of Absalom more than all wives his and concubines his for wives eight-teen he had taken and concubines sixty and he fathered twenty and eight sons and sixty daughters.
amavit autem Roboam Maacha filiam Absalom super omnes uxores suas et concubinas nam uxores decem et octo duxerat concubinasque sexaginta et genuit viginti octo filios et sexaginta filias
22 And he appointed to the chief Rehoboam Abijah [the] son of Maacah to leader among brothers his for to make king him.
constituit vero in capite Abiam filium Maacha ducem super fratres suos ipsum enim regem facere cogitabat
23 And he acted wisely and he distributed some of all sons his to all [the] lands of Judah and Benjamin to all [the] cities of fortifications and he gave to them food to abundance and he sought a multitude of wives.
qui sapientior fuit et potentior super omnes filios eius et in cunctis finibus Iuda et Beniamin et in universis civitatibus muratis praebuitque eis escas plurimas et multas petivit uxores
