2 Chronicles 10
1 All the people of Israel went to Shechem [city] in order to appoint Rehoboam to be their king. So Rehoboam also went there.
Isala: ili ga (north) fi dunu huluane da Lihouboua: me hina bagade hamomusa: , Siegeme moilai bai bagadega gilisila misi. Lihouboua: me da amoga asi.
2 Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, had fled to Egypt [to escape] from King Solomon. But when he heard [about the people wanting to appoint Rehoboam to be their king], he returned [to Israel] from Egypt
Be Yelouboua: me (Niba: de egefe - e da Soloumaneba: le Idibidi sogega hobea: i) e da amo hou nababeba: le, Idibidi soge fisili, buhagi.
3 So the [leaders of the northern tribes] summoned him, and he went with them [to talk] to Rehoboam. They said to Rehoboam,
Isala: ili ga (north) fi huluane da e ilima misa: ne sia: na asi. Amalalu, ilia da gilisili Lihouboua: mema asili, amane sia: i,
4 “Your father [Solomon] forced us to work very hard for him. If you do not force us to work that hard, and if you charge us less taxes than we were paying to him, we will serve you [faithfully].”
“Dia ada Soloumane da ninima gasa fili hamobeba: le, ninia dioi bagade nabasu. Di da amo gasa fili olelesu hou fisili, amola ninia dioi hagilisisia, amola nini asabole esaloma: ne hamosea, ninia da dima molole fa: no bobogemu.”
5 He replied, “Come back three days from now [and I will give you my answer].” So those leaders [and Jeroboam] left.
Lihouboua: me da bu adole i, “Na da eso udiana esalu, bu masea, dilima bu adole imunu.” Amaiba: le, ilia da fisili asi.
6 Then King Rehoboam consulted his older men who had advised his father Solomon while he was still alive. He asked them, “What shall I say to answer these men?”
Hina bagade Lihouboua: me da asigilai dunu (amo da musa: ea ada Soloumane ea fada: i sia: fidisu dunu) ilima amane adole ba: i, “Dilia adi dawa: bela: ? Na da amo dunuma adi adole ima: bela: ?”
7 They replied, “If you will be kind to these people and do things that will please them, and if you say kind things to them when you answer them, they will always serve you.”
Ilia amane adole i, “Di da amo dunu fi noga: le fidimusa: dawa: sea, di ilia adole ba: su amoma asigiwane bu adole ima. Amasea ilia da eso huluane dima molole hawa: hamomu.”
8 But he ignored what the older men advised him to do. Instead, he consulted the younger men who had grown up with him, who were now his advisors.
Be Lihouboua: me da asigilai dunu, ilia fada: i sia: hame nabi. Be amomane e da ayeligi dunu e ili gilisili asigilai, ilia sia: fawane nabi. Bai e da ayeligi dunu ili amo ea fada: i sia: fidisu dunu hamoi.
9 He said to them, “How should I answer the men who are asking me to reduce the [work and taxes] that my father required from them?”
E da ilima amane adole ba: i, “Dilia da nama adi hamoma: ne fada: ne sia: sala: ? Amo dunu ilia da nama, ilia asabole esaloma: ne hamoma: ne sia: sa. Na da ilima adi sia: ma: bela: ?”
10 The young men who had grown up with him replied, “[Those men] have said that your father forced them to work very hard for him, so they want you to reduce the [work and taxes] that your father required from them. But this is what you should tell them: ‘My little finger is thicker than my father’s waist.
Ilia da bu adole i, “Di ilima amane adole ima, ‘Dilia da na ada da gasa fili hamosu dawa: sala: ? Hame mabu! Na lobo sogo fonobahadi ea defei da na ada ea buluga: su dedei amo baligisa.’
11 What I mean is that my father required you to [work hard and pay high taxes]. But I will make those loads heavier. [It was as though] my father whipped you, but I will whip you with whips that have pieces of metal in them.’”
Amola ilima eno adole ima, ‘Dafawane! Na ada da dili dioi bagade nabima: ne hamoi. Be na da dioi bagade baligili dilima imunu. Na ada da dili fegasu efe amoga fai. Be na da fegasu efe bagadedafa amoga dili famu!’”
12 Three days later, Jeroboam and all the leaders came to King Rehoboam again, which is what he had told them to do.
Eso osoda baligili, Yelouboua: me amola dunu huluane, hina bagade Lihouboua: me ea hamoma: ne sia: i defele, ema sinidigi.
13 The king ignored the advice of the older men and spoke harshly to the Israeli leaders.
Lihouboua: me da asigilai dunu ilia fada: i sia: mae dawa: le, dunu huluane ilima gasa fili sia: i.
14 [He told them what the younger men had advised.] He said, “My father put heavy burdens [of work and taxes] on you, but I will put heavier burdens on you. [It was as though] he beat you with whips, but I will beat you with whips that have pieces of metal in them!”
E da ayeligi ilia fada: i sia: defele sia: i. E amane sia: i. “Dilia da na ada da gasa fili hamosu dawa: sala: ? Hame mabu! Na lobo sogo fonobahadi ea defei da na ada ea buluga: su defei amo baligisa. Dafawane! Na ada da dili dioi bagade nabima: ne hamoi. Be na da dioi bagade baligili dilima imunu. Na ada da dili fegasu efe amoga fai. Be na da fegasu efe bagadedafa amoga dili famu!’”
15 So the king did not pay any attention to the Israeli leaders. But this happened in order that what Yahweh had told the prophet Ahijah about Jeroboam would happen.
Hina Gode Ea hanaiga, hou amo E da Siailou Balofede (Gode Sia: Alofesu dunu) Abaidia ea lafidili amo Yelouboua: me (Niba: de egefe) ema sia: i, amo doaga: i dagoi ba: i. Hina bagade Lihouboua: me da dunu fi ilima gasa fili hamoi, amo ea bai da goea.
16 When the Israeli leaders realized that the king did not pay any attention to what they said, they shouted, “We do not want anything to do with this descendant of King David! We will not pay attention to what this grandson of Jesse says! You people of Israel, let’s go home! As for this descendant of David, he can rule his own kingdom!” So the Israeli leaders returned to their homes.
Dunu huluane da hina bagade da ilia sia: nabimu higa: i, amo ba: beba: le, ilia da amane halale sia: i, “Da: ibidi amola ea sosogo fi fisiagama! Ilia da nini hamedafa fidisu! Isala: ili dunu! Ninia da afia: la: di! Lihouboua: me hisu ouligima: ma!” Isala: ili dunu da amanewane odoga: su.
17 And [after that, the only Israeli] people whom Rehoboam ruled over were those who lived in the territory of [the tribes of] Judah [and Benjamin].
Amola Lihouboua: me da dunu fi Yuda soge ganodini, amo fawane ouligimu ba: i.
18 Then King Rehoboam went with Adoniram [to talk to the Israeli people]. Adoniram was the man who supervised [all the men who were] forced to work [for Rehoboam]. But the Israeli people killed him by throwing stones at him. When that happened, King Rehoboam quickly got in his chariot and escaped to Jerusalem.
Amalalu, hina bagade Lihouboua: me da udigili sesei hawa: hamosu dunu ilia ouligisu dunu A: dounaila: me amo Isala: ili dunuma asunasi. Be ilia da e igiga gala: le medole legei. Amo ba: beba: le, Lihouboua: me da ea ‘sa: liode’ amo da: iya fila heda: le, Yelusaleme moilai bai bagadega hobeale asi.
19 Ever since that time, [the people of the northern tribes of] Israel have been rebelling against the descendants of [King] David.
Amo eso fa: no, Isala: ili ga (north) fi dunu da Da: ibidi ea ouligisu sosogo fi ilima lelele esalu.
