2 Chronicles 13
1 When Jeroboam had been ruling [Israel] for almost 18 years, Abijah became the king of Judah.
Iti maikasangapulo ket walo a tawen a panagturay ni Ari Jeroboam, nangrugi a nagturay ni Abias iti entero a Juda.
2 He ruled in Jerusalem for three years. His mother was Micaiah (OR, Maacah), the daughter of Uriel from Gibeah [town]. There was a war between [the armies of] Abijah and Jeroboam.
Nagturay isuna iti tallo a tawen idiay Jerusalem; Maaca ti nagan ti inana a putot ni Uriel a taga-Gabaa. Rimsua ti panaggubat da Abias ken Jeroboam.
3 Abijah went into the battle, taking 400,000 of his capable soldiers, and Jeroboam prepared to fight them, taking 800,000 of his capable troops.
Napan nakigubat ni Abias a kaduana dagiti napipigsa ken natutured a soldado, 400, 000 a napili a lallaki. Nagsagana ni Jeroboam a makigubat kenkuana a kaduana ti 800, 000 a napili a lallaki, a napipigsa ken natutured a soldado.
4 Abijah stood on the top of Zemaraim Mountain, which is in the hilly area that belonged to the tribe of Ephraim, and he shouted, “Jeroboam and all you other people of Israel, listen to me!
Nagtakder ni Abias iti tapaw ti Bantay Zemaraim, nga adda iti katurturodan a pagilian ti Efraim, ket kinunana, “Dumngegkayo kaniak, Jeroboam ken amin a tattao ti Israel!
5 You should know that Yahweh, the God to whom all we Israelis belong, has appointed David and his descendants to be the kings of Israel forever. He has confirmed that by making a permanent agreement.
Saanyo kadi nga ammo nga inted ni Yahweh a Dios ti Israel kenni David ken kadagiti putotna a lallaki ti panangituray iti Israel iti agnanayon babaen iti katulagan?
6 But Jeroboam, who was [only] an official of David’s son King Solomon, rebelled against his king.
Ngem ni Jeroboam a putot a lalaki ni Nebat, nga adipen ni Solomon a putot ni David ket bimmusor iti amona.
7 And when Solomon’s son Rehoboam became king and was still young and inexperienced, a group of worthless scoundrels gathered around you, Jeroboam, and rebelled against Rehoboam.
Nakitipon kenkuana dagiti awan serserbina ken agkakadakes a lallaki. Bimmusorda kenni Rehoboam a putot ni Solomon, idi agtutubo pay laeng ni Rehoboam ken awan pay kapadasanna ken saanna a masuppiat ida.
8 “And now you are planning to fight against the kingdom that Yahweh established to be governed by David’s descendants. It is true that you have a huge army, and you and your soldiers have brought with you the golden [statues of] calves that Jeroboam’s workers made to be gods for all of you.
Ita, kunam a kabaelam a suppiaten ti bileg ti panangituray ni Yahweh iti ima dagiti kaputotan ni David. Dakkelkayo nga armada ken adda kadakayo dagiti sinan-baka a balitok nga inaramid ni Jeroboam nga agpaay a diosyo.
9 But you expelled the priests that Yahweh [appointed], men who are descendants of Aaron [the first Supreme Priest], and you expelled the descendants of Levi, and you appointed the priests that you wanted, like the people of other countries do. You allow anyone to become a priest of idols that are not gods if he comes to dedicate himself to be a priest by sacrificing a young bull and seven rams.
Saan kadi a pinagtalawyo dagiti padi ni Yahweh, a kaputotan ni Aaron, ken dagiti Levita? Saan kadi a nangdutokkayo kadagiti bukodyo a padi a kas iti ar-aramiden dagiti tattao kadagiti sabali a daga? Siasinoman ti umay a mangikonsagrar iti bagina babaen iti maysa nga urbon a baka ken pito a kalakian a karnero ket mabalinnan nga agbalin a padi dagiti didiosen.
10 “As for us, Yahweh is our God, and we have not abandoned him. Our priests who serve Yahweh are descendants of Aaron, and the descendants of Levi assist them.
Ngem maipapan kadakami, ni Yahweh ti Diosmi, ket saanmi isuna a tinallikudan. Addaankami kadagiti padi nga agserserbi kenni Yahweh, dagiti kaputotan ni Aaron ken dagiti Levita nga adda kadagiti trabahoda.
11 Every morning and every evening they present to Yahweh offerings to be completely burned [on the altar], and they burn fragrant incense. [Each week] they place the sacred bread on the sacred table, and each morning they light the lamps that are on the gold lampstand. We are obeying what Yahweh our God requires us to do. But you have abandoned him.
Binigat ken rinabii nga agpuorda kadagiti daton a maipuor ken nabanglo nga insenso nga agpaay kenni Yahweh. Idatagda pay dagiti tinapay a datonda iti nadalus a lamisaan; ay-aywananda pay dagiti kandelero a balitok agraman dagiti pagsilawan dagitoy, ta pasgedanda dagitoy iti tunggal rabii. Tungtungpalenmi dagiti bilin ni Yahweh a Diosmi, ngem tinallikudanyo isuna.
12 Yahweh is with us; he is our leader. The priests whom he has appointed will blow their trumpets to signal [that we are ready] to fight a battle against you. You Israeli men, do not fight against Yahweh, the God to whom your ancestors belonged, because you will not be successful and win the battle against him.”
Kitaenyo, adda ti Dios kadakami a kas pangulomi, ken adda dagiti padina a nakaigem kadagiti trumpeta a paunienda a kas mangipakaammo iti pananggubatmi kadakayo. Tattao ti Israel, saanyo a gubaten ni Yahweh a Dios dagiti kapuonanyo, ta saankayo nga agballigi.”
13 [While he was speaking, ] Jeroboam sent some of his troops around the army of Judah. So while the soldiers who were with Jeroboam were in front of the army of Judah, the other soldiers of Israel were behind the army of Judah.
Ngem nangisagana ni Jeroboam iti mangraut iti armada ti Juda iti likudanda, adda ti armadana iti sangoanan ti Juda, ket adda iti likudanda dagiti agsaneb.
14 When the soldiers of Judah turned and saw that they were going to be attacked from the front and from the rear, they cried out to Yahweh. The priests blew their trumpets,
Idi timmalliaw dagiti soldado ti Juda, addan dagiti kabusorda iti sangoanan ken likudanda. Immawagda kenni Yahweh, ket pinaguni dagiti padi dagiti trumpeta.
15 and the men of Judah shouted a loud battle-cry. Then Yahweh [enabled Abijah and the army of Judah to] defeat Jeroboam and [the army of] Israel.
Kalpasanna, nagpukkaw dagiti lallaki ti Juda, kabayatan iti panagpukkawda, dinangran ti Dios ni Jeroboam ken ti sibubukel nga armada ti Israel iti imatang ni Abias ken ti Juda.
16 The soldiers of Israel fled from the soldiers of Judah, and God enabled the army of Judah to defeat them.
Intarayan dagiti tattao ti Israel ti Juda, ket inyawat ida ti Dios iti ima ti Juda.
17 Abijah and his troops struck the capable soldiers of Israel and killed 500,000 of them.
Pinapatay ida ni Abias ken ti armadana ket adu ti napapatayda; 500, 000 a napili a lallaki ti Israel ti natay.
18 So the soldiers of Israel were defeated, and the soldiers of Judah won the battle because they trusted in Yahweh, the God to whom their ancestors belonged.
Iti kastoy a wagas, naparmek dagiti tattao ti Israel iti dayta a tiempo; nangabak dagiti tattao ti Juda gapu ta nagtalekda kenni Yahweh a Dios dagiti kapuonanda.
19 Abijah’s army pursued the army of Jeroboam, and they captured from the people of Israel the cities of Bethel, Jeshanah, and Ephron, and the surrounding villages.
Kinamat ni Abias ni Jeroboam; sinakupna dagiti siudad ni Jeroboam: ti Betel agraman dagiti barrio daytoy, ti Jesana agraman dagiti barrio daytoy, ken ti Efron agraman dagiti barrio daytoy.
20 During the remaining time that Abijah ruled, Jeroboam did not become powerful again. Then Yahweh caused him to become very ill, and he died.
Saanen a napasubli ni Jeroboam ti bilegna kabayatan dagiti aldaw ni Abias; dinangran isuna ni Yahweh ket natay.
21 But Abijah became more powerful. He married 14 wives and had 22 sons and 16 daughters.
Ngem bimmileg ni Abias; nangasawa isuna iti sangapulo ket uppat ken naaddaan iti putot a duapulo ket dua a lallaki ken sangapulo ket innem a babbai.
22 An account of the other things that Abijah did while he was the king, including what he said and what he did, is in the scroll written by the prophet Iddo.
Naisurat dagiti dadduma nga aramid ni Abias, ti kagagaladna, ken dagiti sasaona iti pakasaritaan ni profeta Iddo.
