Ọ chịrị afọ atọ na Jerusalem. Aha nne ya bụ Maaka, otu nʼime ụmụ nwanyị Uriel, onye Gibea. Agha dịgidere nʼetiti Abija na Jeroboam.
3 And he bound Abijah the battle with an army of mighty [men] of war four hundred thousand man chosen. And Jeroboam he drew up in formation with him battle with eight hundred thousand man chosen mighty of strength.
Abija họpụtara ndị ya dị ike nʼagha bụ ndị ọnụọgụgụ ha dị narị puku anọ, ma Jeroboam eze Izrel họpụtara ndị agha ọnụọgụgụ ha dị narị puku asatọ doo ha nʼusoro.
4 And he stood Abijah on [the] mountain of Zemaraim which [is] in [the] hill country of Ephraim and he said listen to me O Jeroboam and all Israel.
Abija guzoro nʼugwu Zemaraim nʼala ugwu ugwu Ifrem jiri oke olu sị “Jeroboam na ndị Izrel niile geenụ m ntị!
5 ¿ Not [belong] to you [does] to know that Yahweh - [the] God of Israel he has given kingship to David over Israel for ever to him and to descendants his a covenant of salt.
Unu amataghị na Onyenwe anyị Chineke nke Izrel esitela nʼọgbụgba ndụ nnu nyefee ọchịchị ala Izrel niile nʼaka Devid na ụmụ ụmụ ya ruo ebighị ebi?
6 And he arose Jeroboam [the] son of Nebat [the] servant of Solomon [the] son of David and he rebelled on master his.
Ma Jeroboam, nwa Nebat, bụ onye ọrụ Solomọn nwa Devid, nupuru isi megide onyenwe ya.
7 And they gathered to him men empty sons of worthlessness and they proved themselves strong over Rehoboam [the] son of Solomon and Rehoboam he was a young man and weak of heart and not he showed himself strong before them.
Ndị efu niile na-abaghị uru chịkọtara onwe ha gbaa ya gburugburu guzogide Rehoboam nwa Solomọn, mgbe ọ bụ nwantakịrị na onye na-enweghị ike inwe mkpebi, onye nʼadịghịkwa ike iguzogide ha.
8 And now - you [are] saying to show yourselves strong before [the] kingdom of Yahweh in [the] hand of [the] descendants of David and you [are] a multitude great and [are] with you calves of gold which he made for you Jeroboam to gods.
“Ma ugbu a, unu ejikerela imegide alaeze Onyenwe anyị nke dị nʼaka ụmụ ụmụ Devid. Nʼezie, unu bu igwe ndị agha bara ụba, nʼetiti unu ka ụmụ ehi ọlaedo ahụ dịkwa, bụ nke Jeroboam mere ka ha buru chi unu.
9 ¿ Not have you driven out [the] priests of Yahweh [the] descendants of Aaron and the Levites and you have appointed for yourselves priests like [the] peoples of the lands every [one who] comes to fill own hand his with a young bull a young one of cattle and rams seven and he will become a priest to not gods.
Ma unu achụpụghị ndị nchụaja Onyenwe anyị, bụ ụmụ Erọn, chụpụkwa ndị Livayị ma meere onwe unu ndị nchụaja dịka ndị mba ọzọ na-eme? Onye ọbụla ji nwa oke ehi na ebule asaa bịa ido onwe ya nsọ na-aghọrọ unu onye nchụaja nye ihe ndị ahụ na-abụghị chi.
10 And we Yahweh [is] God our and not we have forsaken him and [we are] priests serving Yahweh [the] descendants of Aaron and the Levites [are] in the work.
“Ma banyere anyị, Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke anyị, anyị ahapụbeghị ya. Ndị nchụaja na-ejere Onyenwe anyị ozi bụ ụmụ Erọn, ndị Livayị bụkwa ndị na-enyere ha aka.
11 And [are] making smoke to Yahweh burnt offerings in the morning in the morning and in the evening in the evening and incense of perfume and [the] row of bread on the table clean and [the] lampstand of gold and lamps its to burn in the evening in the evening for [are] keeping we [the] duty of Yahweh God our and you you have forsaken him.
Ha na-achụ aja nye Onyenwe anyị kwa ụtụtụ na anyasị niile, na-esurekwa ihe nsure ọkụ na-esi isi ụtọ; ma na-edobekwa achịcha edoro nsọ nʼelu tebul ahụ dị ọcha. Ha na-amụnyekwa ọkụ nʼiheọkụ ndị ahụ dị nʼelu ihe ịdọba oriọna ọlaedo kwa abalị niile. Nʼihi na anyị onwe anyị na-edebe iwu Onyenwe anyị Chineke anyị; ma unu onwe unu ahapụla ya, gbakụta ya azụ.
12 And here! [is] with us at the head God - and priests his and [the] trumpets of the alarm to sound [the] battle signal on you O people of Israel may not you do battle with Yahweh [the] God of ancestors your for not you will succeed.
Chineke nọnyeere anyị. Ọ bụkwa onyendu anyị. Ndị nchụaja ya ga-eji ịfụ opi ike tie mkpu agha megide unu. Unu ndị Izrel, unu alụsokwala Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke nna unu ha ọgụ nʼihi na mmeri agaghị abụ nke unu!”
13 And Jeroboam he had caused to go round the ambush to come from behind them and they were to front of Judah and the ambush [was] from behind them.
Ma Jeroboam ezipụlarị ụfọdụ ndị agha ya ka ha ga ndị agha Juda nʼazụ. Mgbe Jeroboam nọ nʼihu ndị Juda, ụfọdụ ndị agha ya nọkwa ndị Juda nʼazụ.
14 And they turned Judah and there! [was] to them the battle before and behind and they cried out to Yahweh and the priests ([were] blowing a trumpet *Q(k)*) on trumpets.
Mgbe ndị agha Juda tụgharịrị hụ na agha dị ha nʼihu dịkwa nʼazụ, ha tikuru Onyenwe anyị mkpu nzọpụta, ndị nchụaja fụkwara opi ike ha.
15 And they sounded [the] battle signal [the] man of Judah and it was when sounded [the] battle signal [the] man of Judah and God he defeated Jeroboam and all Israel before Abijah and Judah.
Ndị Juda tiri oke mkpu agha. Mgbe ha na-eti mkpu a, Chineke mere ka Abija na ndị Juda merie Jeroboam na ndị Izrel.
16 And they fled [the] people of Israel from before Judah and he gave them God in hand their.
Ndị agha Izrel gbara ọsọ nʼihu ndị Juda, Chineke nyefere ha nʼaka ndị Juda.
17 And they struck down among them Abijah and people his a striking great and they fell slain of Israel five hundred thousand man chosen.
Abija na ndị agha ya gburu narị puku ndị Izrel ise nʼụbọchị ahụ.
18 And they were humbled [the] people of Israel at the time that and they were strong [the] people of Judah for they depended on Yahweh [the] God of ancestors their.
Ya mere, ntụkwasị obi nke Juda nwere nʼime Onyenwe anyị Chineke nna ha mere ka ha merie Jeroboam na ndị Izrel.
19 And he pursued Abijah after Jeroboam and he captured from him cities Beth-el and daughters its and Jeshanah and daughters its and (Ephrayin *Q(K)*) and daughters its.
Abija chụkwara Jeroboam na ndị agha ya ọsọ dọta obodo ndị a nʼagha: Betel, na Jeshana, na Efrọn, na obodo niile gbara ha gburugburu.
20 And not he retained [the] strength of Jeroboam again in [the] days of Abijah and he struck him Yahweh and he died.
Jeroboam enwetakwaghị ike ya ọzọ oge niile Abija nọ dịka eze. Ma ọ dịghị anya Onyenwe anyị tidara ya tigbuo ya.
21 And he strengthened himself Abijah and he took for himself wives four-teen and he fathered twenty and two sons and six-teen daughters.
Ma Abija gara nʼihu bụrụ onye dị ike, ọ lụrụ nwunye iri na anọ, mụọ iri ụmụ nwoke abụọ na abụọ, na ụmụ ndị nwanyị iri na isii.
22 And [the] rest of [the] matters of Abijah and ways his and words his [are] written in [the] record of the prophet Iddo.
Akụkọ niile banyere ọchịchị Abija, ihe o mere na ihe o kwuru, dị nʼakwụkwọ akụkọ nke Ido onye amụma dere.
