1 Kings 12
1 And Rehoboam went to Shechem: for all Israel had come to Shechem to make him king.
Rehobowam ya tafi Shekem, gama dukan Isra’ila sun je can don su naɗa shi sarki.
2 And it came to pass, when Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who was yet in Egypt, heard of it, (for he had fled from the presence of king Solomon, and Jeroboam dwelt in Egypt; )
Sa’ad da Yerobowam ɗan Nebat ya ji labari (gama har yanzu yana a Masar, inda ya gudu daga Sarki Solomon), sai ya dawo daga Masar.
3 That they sent and called him. And Jeroboam and all the congregation of Israel came, and spoke to Rehoboam, saying,
Saboda haka mutane suka aika Yerobowam yă zo, sai shi da dukan taron Isra’ila suka tafi wurin Rehobowam, suka ce masa,
4 Thy father made our yoke grievous: now therefore make thou the grievous service of thy father, and his heavy yoke which he put upon us, lighter, and we will serve thee.
“Mahaifinka ya sa mana kaya mai nauyin gaske, amma yanzu ka sassauta wannan aiki mai zafi, da kuma kaya masu nauyin da ya sa a kanmu, mu kuwa za mu bauta maka.”
5 And he said to them, Depart yet for three days, then come again to me. And the people departed.
Rehobowam ya amsa, “Ku tafi, bayan kwana uku, ku dawo.” Sai mutane suka watse.
6 And king Rehoboam consulted with the old men, that stood before Solomon his father while he yet lived, and said, How do ye advise that I may answer this people?
Sai Sarki Rehobowam ya nemi shawarar dattawa waɗanda suka yi wa mahaifinsa Solomon, hidima a kwanakinsa. Ya ce, “Wace shawara ce za ku ba ni don in amsa wa waɗannan mutane?”
7 And they spoke to him, saying, If thou wilt be a servant to this people this day, and wilt serve them, and answer them, and speak good words to them, then they will be thy servants for ever.
Suka amsa, “In a yau za ka zama bawan waɗannan mutane, ka kuma yi musu hidima, ka ba su amsa mai kyau, kullum za su kasance bayinka.”
8 But he forsook the counsel of the old men, which they had given him, and consulted with the young men that had grown up with him, and who stood before him:
Amma Rehobowam ya ƙi shawarar da dattawan suka ba shi, sai ya nemi shawarar matasa waɗanda suka yi girma tare, waɗanda kuma suke masa hidima.
9 And he said to them, What counsel give ye that we may answer this people, who have spoken to me, saying, Make the yoke which thy father did put upon us lighter?
Ya tambaye su, “Mece ce shawararku? Yaya za mu amsa wa waɗannan mutane masu cewa, ‘Ka sassauta nauyin da mahaifinka ya sa a kanmu’?”
10 And the young men that had grown up with him spoke to him, saying, Thus shalt thou speak to this people who spoke to thee, saying, Thy father made our yoke heavy, but make thou it lighter to us; thus shalt thou say to them, My little finger shall be thicker than my father’s loins.
Matasan, waɗanda suka yi girma tare da shi, suka amsa, “Faɗa wa waɗannan mutanen da suka ce maka, ‘Mahaifinka ya sa kaya masu nauyi a kanmu, amma ka sassauta kayanka.’ Ka ce musu, ‘Ƙaramin yatsana ya fi ƙugun tsohona kauri.
11 And now though my father burdened you with a heavy yoke, I will add to your yoke: my father hath chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.
Mahaifina ya sa muku kaya masu nauyi; ni zan ma sa su fi haka nauyi. Mahaifina ya hore ku da bulala; ni kuwa zan hore ku da kunamai.’”
12 So Jeroboam and all the people came to Rehoboam the third day, as the king had appointed, saying, Come to me again the third day.
Bayan kwana uku, Yerobowam da dukan mutane suka dawo wurin Rehobowam yadda sarki ya faɗa, “Ku dawo gare ni cikin kwana uku.”
13 And the king answered the people roughly, and forsook the old men’s counsel that they gave him;
Sai Sarki ya amsa wa mutane da zafi. Yana ƙin shawarar da dattawa suka ba shi.
14 And spoke to them after the counsel of the young men, saying, My father made your yoke heavy, and I will add to your yoke: my father also chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.
Ya bi shawarar matasa, ya ce, “Mahaifina ya sa muku kaya masu nauyi; ni zan ma sa su fi haka nauyi. Mahaifina ya hore ku da bulala; ni kuwa zan hore ku da kunamai.”
15 Therefore the king hearkened not to the people; for the cause was from the LORD, that he might perform his saying, which the LORD spoke by Ahijah the Shilonite to Jeroboam the son of Nebat.
Saboda haka sarki bai saurare mutane ba, gama wannan abin da ya faru daga wurin Ubangiji ne, don a cika maganar Ubangiji da ya yi wa Yerobowam ɗan Nebat ta wurin Ahiya, mutumin Shilo.
16 So when all Israel saw that the king hearkened not to them, the people answered the king, saying, What portion have we in David? neither have we inheritance in the son of Jesse: to your tents, O Israel: now see to thy own house, David. So Israel departed to their tents.
Da dukan Isra’ila suka ga sarki ya ƙi yă saurare su, sai suka amsa wa sarki, “Ina ruwanmu da Dawuda! Ai! Ba mu da gādo wurin ɗan Yesse. Ya Isra’ila, kowa yă koma tentinsa! Dawuda, sai ka lura da gidanka!” Saboda haka Isra’ilawa suka watse zuwa gida.
17 But as for the children of Israel who dwelt in the cities of Judah, Rehoboam reigned over them.
Amma ga Isra’ilawan da suke zama a garuruwan Yahuda kuwa, Rehobowam ya ci gaba da mulki a kansu.
18 Then king Rehoboam sent Adoram, who was over the forced labour; and all Israel stoned him with stones, that he died. Therefore king Rehoboam made speed to enter his chariot, to flee to Jerusalem.
Sarki Rehobowam ya aiki Adoniram wanda yake shugaban aikin gandu, amma Isra’ila suka jajjefe shi da dutse har ya mutu. Sarki Rehobowam, ya sullale ya hau keken yaƙinsa ya tsere zuwa Urushalima.
19 So Israel rebelled against the house of David to this day.
Tun daga wannan ranar ne mutanen Isra’ila suka shiga gāba da gidan Dawuda har wa yau.
20 And it came to pass, when all Israel heard that Jeroboam had come again, that they sent and called him to the congregation, and made him king over all Israel: there was none that followed the house of David, but the tribe of Judah only.
Sa’ad da dukan Isra’ilawa suka ji Yerobowam ya dawo, sai suka aika, suka kira shi zuwa taro, suka kuma naɗa shi sarki bisa dukan Isra’ila. Kabila Yahuda kaɗai ta kasance mai biyayya ga gidan Dawuda.
21 And when Rehoboam had come to Jerusalem, he assembled all the house of Judah, with the tribe of Benjamin, an hundred and eighty thousand chosen men, who were warriors, to fight against the house of Israel, to bring the kingdom again to Rehoboam the son of Solomon.
Da Rehobowam ya isa Urushalima, ya tattara dukan gidan Yahuda da kabilar Benyamin, ya sami sun kai mayaƙa dubu da tamanin. Sai aka shirya don su yaƙi gidan Isra’ila, su kuma mayar da masarautar wa Rehobowam ɗan Solomon.
22 But the word of God came to Shemaiah the man of God, saying,
Amma waɗannan kalmomin Allah suka zo wa Shemahiya, mutumin Allah, cewa,
23 Speak to Rehoboam, the son of Solomon, king of Judah, and to all the house of Judah and Benjamin, and to the remnant of the people, saying,
“Faɗa wa Rehobowam ɗan Solomon, sarkin Yahuda, ka faɗa wa dukan gidan Yahuda da Benyamin, da kuma dukan sauran mutane,
24 Thus saith the LORD, Ye shall not go up, nor fight against your brethren the children of Israel: return every man to his house; for this thing is from me. They hearkened therefore to the word of the LORD, and returned to depart, according to the word of the LORD.
‘Ga abin da Ubangiji ya ce, “Kada ku haura don ku yi yaƙi da’yan’uwanku, Isra’ilawa. Ku koma gida, kowannenku, gama wannan aikina ne.”’” Saboda haka suka yi biyayya da maganar Ubangiji, suka sāke watse zuwa gida, yadda Ubangiji ya umarta.
25 Then Jeroboam built Shechem in mount Ephraim, and dwelt in it; and went out from there, and built Penuel.
Sai Yerobowam ya ƙara gina Shekem a ƙasar tudu ta Efraim, ya zauna a can. Daga can ya tafi ya gina Fenuwel.
26 And Jeroboam said in his heart, Now shall the kingdom return to the house of David:
Yerobowam ya yi tunani a ransa ya ce, “Mai yiwuwa mulkin yă koma gidan Dawuda.
27 If this people go up to offer sacrifice in the house of the LORD at Jerusalem, then shall the heart of this people turn again to their lord, even to Rehoboam king of Judah, and they shall kill me, and return to Rehoboam king of Judah.
In waɗannan mutane sun riƙa haurawa don su miƙa hadayu a haikalin Ubangiji a Urushalima. Za su sāke nuna biyayya ga mai girma, Rehobowam, sarkin Yahuda. Za su kashe ni su kuma koma ga Sarki Rehobowam.”
28 Upon which the king took counsel, and made two calves of gold, and said to them, It is too much for you to go up to Jerusalem: behold thy gods, O Israel, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt.
Bayan ya nemi shawara, sai sarki ya yi siffofin’yan maruƙa biyu na zinariya. Ya ce wa mutane, “Kun daɗe kuna haurawa zuwa can Urushalima. Ga allolinku, ya Isra’ila, waɗanda suka fitar da ku daga ƙasar Masar.”
29 And he set the one in Bethel, and the other he placed in Dan.
Sai ya kafa ɗaya a Betel, ɗaya kuma a Dan.
30 And this thing became a sin: for the people went to worship before the one, even to Dan.
Wannan ya zama zunubi, gama mutane suna tafiya yin wa wannan da yake a Betel sujada, su kuma je har Dan don su yi wa ɗayan sujada.
31 And he made an house of high places, and made priests of the lowest of the people, who were not of the sons of Levi.
Yerobowam ya gina masujadai da suke kan tuddai, ya kuma naɗa firistoci barkatai daga cikin mutanen da ba na zuriyar Lawi ba.
32 And Jeroboam ordained a feast in the eighth month, on the fifteenth day of the month, like the feast that is in Judah, and he offered upon the altar. So did he in Bethel, sacrificing to the calves that he had made: and he placed in Bethel the priests of the high places which he had made.
Ya kafa biki a rana ta goma sha biyar ta watan takwas, kamar bikin da ake yi a Yahuda, ya kuma miƙa hadayu a bisa bagade. Ya yi haka a Betel, yana miƙa wa siffofin maruƙan da ya yi hadayu. A Betel kuma ya naɗa firistoci a wuraren tudun da ya yi.
33 So he offered upon the altar which he had made in Bethel the fifteenth day of the eighth month, even in the month which he had devised of his own heart; and ordained a feast to the children of Israel: and he offered upon the altar, and burnt incense.
A rana ta goma sha biyar ta watan takwas, watan da ya zaɓa, ya miƙa hadayu a bisa bagaden da ya gina a Betel. Saboda haka ya kafa biki don Isra’ilawa, ya kuma haura zuwa bagade don yă miƙa hadayu.
