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.
Napan ni Rehoboam idiay Sikem, gapu ta napan dagiti adu a tattao ti Israel idiay Sikem tapno isaadda isuna nga ari.
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
Ket napasamak a nadamag daytoy ni Jeroboam nga anak ni Nebat (ta adda isuna idiay Egipto, a nagtarayanna manipud kenni Ari Solomon; ngem nagsubli ni Jeroboam manipud iti Egipto).
3 So the [leaders of the northern tribes] summoned him, and he went with them [to talk] to Rehoboam. They said to Rehoboam,
Isu a nangibaonda iti mapan mangayab kenkuana, ket immay ni Jeroboam ken dagiti amin a tattao ti Israel; kinasaritada ni Rehoboam ket kinunada,
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].”
“Pinadagsen ti amam ti sangolmi. Ita ngarud, palakaem ti narigat nga impatrabaho ti amam, ken palag-anem ti nadagsen a sangol nga impabaklayna kadakami, ket agserbikaminto kenka.”
5 He replied, “Come back three days from now [and I will give you my answer].” So those leaders [and Jeroboam] left.
Kinuna ni Rehoboam kadakuada, “Umaykayo manen kaniak kalpasan iti tallo nga aldaw.” Isu a pimmanaw dagiti tattao.
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?”
Nakiuman ni Ari Rehoboam kadagiti lallakay a nagserbi idi a kas mammagbaga ken ni Solomon nga amana idi sibibiag pay laeng isuna; kinunana, “Ania ti maibalakadyo kaniak nga isungbatko kadagitoy a tattao?”
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.”
Kinasaoda isuna ket kinunada, “No naimbagka kadagitoy a tattao ken ay-ayoem ida, ken agsaoka kadagiti nasasayaat kadakuada, ket adipenmonto ida a kanayon.”
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.
Ngem saan nga inkaskaso ni Rehoboam ti pammagbaga dagiti lallakay kenkuana, ket nakiuman isuna kadagiti agtutubo a lallaki a kasadaranna a dimmakkel, a mammagbaga itan kenkuana.
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?”
Kinunana kadakuada, “Ania ti maibalakadyo kaniak, tapno masungbatantayo dagiti tattao a nangibaga kaniak a kinunada, 'Palag-anem ti sangol nga impabaklay ti amam kadakami'?”
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.
Nakisarita kenni Rehoboam dagiti agtutubo a lallaki a kasadaranna a dimmakkel a kunada, “Kasaritam dagiti tattao a nangibaga kenka a pinadagsen ni Solomon nga amam dagiti sangolda ket masapul a palag-anem dagitoy. Rumbeng nga ibagam kadakuada, 'Napuspuskol ti kikitko ngem iti siket ti amak.
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.’”
Isu nga ita, uray no pinabaklaynakayo ti amak iti nadagsen a sangol, padagsenekto pay ti sangolyo. Dinusanakayo ti amak babaen kadagiti baut, ngem dusaenkayo babaen kadagiti kasla kadagiti manggagama.”'
12 Three days later, Jeroboam and all the leaders came to King Rehoboam again, which is what he had told them to do.
Napan ngarud ni Jeroboam ken dagiti adu a tattao kenni Rehoboam iti maikatlo nga aldaw, a kas imbilin ti ari idi kinunana, “Agsublikayo kaniak inton maikatlo nga aldaw.”
13 The king ignored the advice of the older men and spoke harshly to the Israeli leaders.
Nagubsang ti panangsungbat ti ari kadakuada; saan nga inkaskaso ni Ari Rehoboam ti balakad dagiti lallakay.
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!”
Nagsao isuna kadakuada a kas iti balakad dagiti agtutubo a lallaki; kinunana, “Padagsenekto pay dagiti sangolyo; nayonakto pay dagitoy. Dinusanakayo ti amak babaen kadagiti baut, ngem dusaenkayonto babaen kadagiti kasla kadagiti manggagama.”
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.
Saan ngarud nga impangag ti ari dagiti tattao; ta pagayatan ti Dios a kastoy ti mapasamak, tapno maipatungpal ni Yahweh ti saona nga insaona babaen kenni Ahija a Silonita kenni Jeroboam a putot ni Nebat.
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.
Idi nabigbig dagiti tattao ti Israel a saan ida nga impangag ti ari, simmungbat dagiti tattao kenkuana ket kinunada, “Ania ti bingaymi kenni David? Awan tawidmi iti anak ni Jesse! Rumbeng nga agsubli ti tunggal maysa kadakayo iti toldana, Israel. Ita, kitaem ti bukodmo a balay, David.” Nagsubli ngarud dagiti tattao ti Israel kadagiti toldada.
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].
Ngem no maipapan kadagiti tattao ti Israel nga agnanaed kadagiti siudad ti Juda, inturayan ida ni Rehoboam.
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.
Kalpasanna, imbaon ni Ari Rehoboam ni Adoniram, a mangidadaulo kadagiti inkapilitan nga agtrabaho, ngem binato isuna dagiti tattao ti Israel agingga a natay. Dagus a naglibas ni Ari Rehoboam babaen iti karuahena ket napan idiay Jerusalem.
19 Ever since that time, [the people of the northern tribes of] Israel have been rebelling against the descendants of [King] David.
Isu a nagrebelde dagiti tattao ti Israel a maibusor iti balay ni David agingga iti daytoy nga aldaw.
