< 2 Chronicles 12 >
1 After Rehoboam was in complete control of his kingdom, he and all [the other people in] Judah stopped obeying the laws of Yahweh.
Lihouboua: me da gasa fili, ea ouligisu hou didili lalegagui dagoloba, e amola ea fi dunu da hedolowane, Hina Gode Ea Sema yolesiagai.
2 As a result, after Rehoboam had been king for almost five years, Yahweh sent Shishak, the king of Egypt, [with his army] to attack Jerusalem.
Ilia da Hina Godema baligi fa: iba: le, Lihouboua: me ea ouligibi ode bi amoga, ilia da se iasu ba: i. Idibidi hina bagade Siaisia: ge da Yelusaleme doagala: i.
3 Along with his army he brought 1,200 chariots and 60,000 soldiers riding horses and a very large number of troops from two regions in Libya, and from Ethiopia.
Siaisia: ge ea dadi gagui wa: i da sa: liode 1,200 agoane, hosiga fila heda: i dadi gagui dunu 60,000 agoane amola dadi gagui dunu eno idimu hame gala. Ea dadi gagui dunu mogili da Libia, Sagimi amola Idioubia sogega misi.
4 They captured many of the cities in Judah that had walls around them, and they came as far as Jerusalem.
E da Yuda gagili sali moilai bai bagade huluane susuguli, mogodigili ahoana, Yelusalemega doaga: i.
5 Then the prophet Shemaiah came to Rehoboam and the other leaders of Judah who had gathered in Jerusalem because they were afraid of [the army of] Shishak. Shemaiah said to them, “Yahweh says this: ‘You have abandoned me; so now I am abandoning you, to [allow you to be captured by the army of] Shishak.’”
Balofede dunu Siema: ia da hina bagade Lihouboua: me amola Yuda ouligisu dunu (ili huluane da Siaisia: gema beda: iba: le, Yelusaleme ganodini gilisili esalebe ba: i) ilima asili, amane sia: i, “Hina Gode da dilima amane sia: ne iaha, ‘Dilia da Na fisiagaiba: le, Na da Siaisia: ge amo ea dili hasalima: ne, fisiagai dagoi.’”
6 Then the king and the other Israeli leaders humbled themselves and said, “What Yahweh is doing to us is fair.”
Lihouboua: me amola Yuda ouligisu dunu da ilia wadela: i hou gogosiane fofada: i. Ilia amane sia: i, “Dafawane! Hina Gode Ea wali hamobe da moloidafa.”
7 When Yahweh realized that they had humbled themselves, he gave this message to Shemaiah: “Because they have humbled themselves, I will not allow them to be destroyed. Instead, I will soon rescue them. I will not use Shishak’s army to completely destroy the people of Jerusalem,
Hina Gode da amo ba: beba: le, bu Siema: iama amane sia: i, “Ilia da ilia wadela: i hou gogosiane fofada: iba: le, Na da ili hame gugunufinisimu. Be Siaisia: ge da ili doagala: sea, ilia da gugunufinisidafa hame ba: mu. Na ougidafa hou da Yelusalemema hame doaga: mu.
8 but they will conquer Jerusalem and force the people there to do what Shishak wants them to do. As a result, the people of Jerusalem will learn [that it is better] to serve me than to serve the kings of other countries.”
Be Siaisia: ge da ili hasalimu. Nama hawa: hamosu hou amola osobo bagade ouligisu dunuma hawa: hamosu hou da hisu. Amo ilia da dawa: mu.”
9 When Shishak’s [army] attacked Jerusalem, they took/carried away the valuable things that were in the temple of Yahweh and the valuable things that were in the king’s palace. They took everything [that was valuable], including the gold shields that Solomon’s [workers] had made.
Hina bagade Siaisia: ge da Yelusalemega misini, e da Debolo Diasua amola hina bagade diasua, noga: i liligi huluane susugui. E da huluanedafa susugui dagoi, amola gouliga hamoi da: igene ga: su, Soloumane ea hamoi liligi, amo huluane susugui.
10 So King Rehoboam’s workers made bronze shields to be used instead of the gold ones and gave the bronze shields to the commanders of the men who guarded the entrance to his palace.
Amo buga: ma: ne, Lihouboua: me da eno da: igene ga: su, balasega hamoi. E da amo ouligima: ne, logo ga: su sosodo aligisu dunu ilegei.
11 After that, whenever the king went to the temple, the guards went with him, carrying those bronze shields. Then [when the king left, ] they would return the shields to the guards’ room.
Eso huluane, Lihouboua: me da Debolo Diasuga ahoasu, sosodo aligisu dunu da da: igene ga: su gaguli ahoasu. Amalu, ilia da bu sosodo aligisu sesei ganodini ligisisu.
12 Because Rehoboam humbled himself, Yahweh stopped being angry with him and did not get rid of him. Instead, he caused good things to happen in Judah.
E da Hina Gode Ea se iasu hame hihiba: le, Hina Gode da e dafawanedafa hame gugunufinisi. Amola Yuda fi da bu hahawane ba: i.
13 King Rehoboam again was in complete control in Jerusalem and continued to be the king [of Judah]. He was 41 years old when he became the king. He ruled for 17 years in Jerusalem, which is the city that Yahweh had chosen from all the tribes in Israel to be the place in which people were to worship him.
Lihouboua: me da Yelusalemega esala, ea ouligisu hou hamosu. Ea gasa da bu heda: i. E da lalelegele, ode 45 esalu, Yuda fima ouligisu hou mui, amola e da Yelusalemega esala, ode 17 agoane Yuda fi ouligisu. (Hina Gode da Isala: ili soge ganodini, Ema nodone sia: ne gadosu sogebi, Yelusaleme moilai bai bagade, amo fawane ilegei.) Lihouboua: me ea ame da Na: ima. Na: ima da A: mounaide uda.
14 Rehoboam’s mother’s name was Naamah. She was from the Ammon people-group. Rehoboam did evil things because he did not try to find out what Yahweh wanted him to do.
Lihouboua: me da wadela: le hamosu. Bai e da Hina Gode Ea hanai hou hame hogosu.
15 An account of all the things that Rehoboam did while he was the king, and lists of the members of his family, are in the scrolls written by the prophets Shemaiah and Iddo. The armies of Rehoboam and Jeroboam were constantly fighting each other.
Lihouboua: me ea hou, e da muni hahamona asili dagoi, amola ea sosogo fi ilia hou, amo da “Balofede Dunu Siema: ia ea Hamonanu” meloa dedei amola “Balofede Dunu Idou ea Hamonanu” meloa dedei amo ganodini dedene legei. Lihouboua: me da mae fisili, Yelouboua: mema gegenanu.
16 When Rehoboam died, he was buried in [the part of Jerusalem called] ‘The City of David’. Then his son Abijah became the king.
Lihouboua: me da bogoloba, ilia da ea da: i hodo amo Da: ibidi ea Moilai bai bagadega hina bagade ilia dogonesisu sogebi amoga gele gelaboga sali. Egefe Abaidia da e bagia, Yuda fi dunu ilia hina bagade hamoi.
