1 Kings 14
1 In that tyme Abia, sone of Jeroboam, was sijk.
In tempore illo aegrotavit Abia filius Ieroboam.
2 And Jeroboam seide to his wijf, Rise thou, and chaunge clothing, that thou be not knowun, that thou art the wijf of Jeroboam; and go thou in to Silo, where Ahia, the prophete, is, which spak to me, that Y schulde regne on this puple.
Dixitque Ieroboam uxori suae: Surge, et commuta habitum, ne cognoscaris quod sis uxor Ieroboam: et vade in Silo, ubi est Ahias propheta, qui locutus est mihi, quod regnaturus essem super populum hunc.
3 Also take thou in the hond ten looues, and a cake, and a vessil of hony, and go thou to hym; for he schal schewe to thee, what schal bifalle to this child.
Tolle quoque in manu tua decem panes, et crustulam, et vas mellis, et vade ad illum: ipse enim indicabit tibi quid eventurum sit puero huic.
4 The wijf of Jeroboam dide as he seide, and sche roos, and yede in to Silo, and cam in to the hows of Ahia; and he miyte not se, for hise iyen dasewiden for eelde.
Fecit ut dixerat, uxor Ieroboam: et consurgens abiit in Silo, et venit in domum Ahiae: at ille non poterat videre, quia caligaverant oculi eius prae senectute.
5 Forsothe the Lord seide to Ahia, Lo! the wijf of Jeroboam entrith, that sche counsele thee on hir sone, which is sijk; thou schalt speke these and these thingis to hir. Therfor whanne sche hadde entrid, and hadde feyned hir silf to be that `womman which sche was not,
Dixit autem Dominus ad Ahiam: Ecce uxor Ieroboam ingreditur ut consulat te super filio suo qui aegrotat. haec et haec loqueris ei. Cum ergo illa intraret, et dissimularet se esse quae erat,
6 Ahia herde the soune of the feet of hir entrynge bi the dore, and he seide, Entre thou, the wijf of Jeroboam; whi feynest thou thee to bee an other womman? Forsothe Y am sent an hard messanger to thee.
audivit Ahias sonitum pedum eius introeuntis per ostium, et ait: Ingredere uxor Ieroboam: quare aliam te esse simulas? ego autem missus sum ad te durus nuncius.
7 Go thou, and seie to Jeroboam, The Lord God of Israel seith these thingis, For Y enhaunside thee fro the myddis of the puple, and Y yaf thee duyk on my puple Israel,
Vade, et dic Ieroboam: Haec dicit Dominus Deus Israel: Quia exaltavi te de medio populi, et dedi te ducem super populum meum Israel:
8 and Y kittide the rewme of the hows of Dauid, and Y yaf it to thee, and thou were not as my seruaunt Dauid, that kepte myn heestis, and suede me in al his herte, and dide that that was plesaunt in my siyt;
et scidi regnum domus David, et dedi illud tibi, et non fuisti sicut servus meus David, qui custodivit mandata mea, et secutus est me in toto corde suo, faciens quod placitum esset in conspectu meo:
9 but thou wrouytist yuel, ouer alle men that weren bifore thee, and madist to thee alien goddis, and wellid to gidere, that thou schuldist excite me to wrathfulnesse, sotheli thou hast cast forth me bihyndis thi bak.
sed operatus es mala super omnes, qui fuerunt ante te, et fecisti tibi deos alienos et conflatiles, ut me ad iracundiam provocares, me autem proiecisti post corpus tuum:
10 Therfor lo! Y schal brynge in yuels on the hows of Jeroboam, and Y schal smyte of Jeroboam `til to a pissere to the wal, and prisoned, and the laste in Israel; and Y schal clense the relikis of the hows of Jeroboam, as dung is wont to be clensid `til to the purete, `ether clennesse;
idcirco ecce ego inducam mala super domum Ieroboam, et percutiam de Ieroboam mingentem ad parietem, et clausum, et novissimum in Israel: et mundabo reliquias domus Ieroboam, sicut mundari solet fimus usque ad purum.
11 sotheli doggis schulen ete hem, that schulen die of the hows of Jeroboam in citee; forsothe briddis of the eyr schulen deuoure hem, that schulen die in the feeld; for the Lord spak.
Qui mortui fuerint de Ieroboam in civitate, comedent eos canes: qui autem mortui fuerint in agro, vorabunt eos aves caeli: quia Dominus locutus est.
12 Therfor rise thou, and go in to thin hows; and in thilke entryng of thi feet in to the citee the child schal die.
Tu igitur surge, et vade in domum tuam: et in ipso introitu pedum tuorum in urbem, morietur puer,
13 And al Israel schal biweile him, and schal birie; for this child aloone of Jeroboam schal be borun in to sepulcre, for a good word is foundun on hym of the Lord God of Israel, in the hows of Jeroboam.
et planget eum omnis Israel, et sepeliet: iste enim solus inferetur de Ieroboam in sepulchrum, quia inventus est super eo sermo bonus a Domino Deo Israel, in domo Ieroboam.
14 Forsothe the Lord schal ordeyne to hym a kyng on Israel, that schal smyte the hows of Jeroboam, in this dai and in this tyme;
Constituet autem sibi Dominus regem super Israel, qui percutiet domum Ieroboam in hac die, et in hoc tempore:
15 and the Lord God of Israel schal smyte, as a reed in the water is wont to be mouyd; and he schal drawe out Israel fro this good lond, which he yaf to her fadris, and he schal wyndewe hem ouer the flood, for thei maden to hem woodis, that thei schulden terre the Lord to ire.
et percutiet Dominus Deus Israel, sicut moveri solet arundo in aqua: et evellet Israel de terra bona hac, quam dedit patribus eorum, et ventilabit eos trans Flumen: quia fecerunt sibi lucos, ut irritarent Dominum.
16 And the Lord God schal bitake Israel to hise enemyes, for the synnes of Jeroboam, that synnede, and made Israel to do synne.
Et tradet Dominus Israel propter peccata Ieroboam, qui peccavit, et peccare fecit Israel.
17 Therfor the wijf of Jeroboam roos, and yede, and cam in to Thersa; whanne sche entride in to the threschfold of the hows, the child was deed.
Surrexit itaque uxor Ieroboam, et abiit, et venit in Thersa: cumque illa ingrederetur limen domus, puer mortuus est,
18 And thei birieden hym; and al Israel biweilide hym, bi the word of the Lord, which he spak in the hoond of his seruaunt, Ahia the prophet.
et sepelierunt eum. Et planxit eum omnis Israel iuxta sermonem Domini, quem locutus est in manu servi sui Ahiae prophetae.
19 Forsothe, lo! the residue of wordis of Jeroboam, how he fauyt, and how he regnede, ben writun in the book of wordis of the daies of kyngis of Israel.
Reliqua autem verborum Ieroboam, quomodo pugnaverit, et quomodo regnaverit, ecce scripta sunt in Libro verborum dierum regum Israel.
20 Forsothe the daies, in whiche Jeroboam regnede, ben two and twenti yeer; and Jeroboam slepte with hise fadris, and Nadab, his sone, regnede for hym.
Dies autem, quibus regnavit Ieroboam, viginti duo anni sunt: et dormivit cum patribus suis: regnavitque Nadab filius eius pro eo.
21 Forsothe Roboam, the sone of Salomon, regnede in Juda; Roboam was of oon and fourti yeer, whanne he bigan to regne, and he regnede seuentene yeer in Jerusalem, the citee which the Lord chees of alle the lynagis of Israel, that he schulde sette his name there. Sotheli the name of his moder was Naama Amanyte.
Porro Roboam filius Salomonis regnavit in Iuda. Quadraginta et unius anni erat Roboam, cum regnare coepisset: decem et septem annos regnavit in Ierusalem civitate, quam elegit Dominus ut poneret nomen suum ibi, ex omnibus tribubus Israel. Nomen autem matris eius Naama Ammanitis.
22 And Juda dide yuel bifor the Lord, and thei terriden hym to ire on alle thingis, whiche her fadris diden in her synnes, bi whiche thei synneden.
Et fecit Iudas malum coram Domino, et irritaverunt eum super omnibus, quae fecerant patres eorum in peccatis suis, quae peccaverunt.
23 For also thei bildiden to hem silf auters, and ymagis, and wodis, on eche hiy hil, and vndur ech tree ful of bowis.
Aedificaverunt enim et ipsi sibi aras, et statuas, et lucos super omnem collem excelsum, et subter omnem arborem frondosam:
24 But also `men of wymmens condiciouns weren in the lond, and thei diden alle abhominaciouns of hethene men, whiche the Lord al to-brak bifor the face of the sones of Israel.
sed et effeminati fuerunt in terra, feceruntque omnes abominationes gentium, quas attrivit Dominus ante faciem filiorum Israel.
25 Forsothe in the fifthe yeer of the rewme of Roboam, Sesach, the kyng of Egipt, styede in to Jerusalem;
In quinto autem anno regni Roboam, ascendit Sesac rex Aegypti in Ierusalem,
26 and he took the tresouris of the hows of the Lord, and the kyngis tresouris, and he rauischide alle thingis; also `he rauischide the goldun scheeldis, whiche Salomon made.
et tulit thesauros domus Domini, et thesauros regios, et universa diripuit: scuta quoque aurea, quae fecerat Salomon:
27 For whiche kyng Roboam made brasun scheeldis, and yaf tho in the hondis of duykis of scheeld makeris, and of hem that wakiden bifor the dore of the hows of the Lord.
pro quibus fecit rex Roboam scuta aerea, et tradidit ea in manum ducum scutariorum, et eorum qui excubabant ante ostium domus regis.
28 And whanne the kyng entride in to the hows of the Lord, thei that hadden office to go bifore, baren tho, and baren ayen to the place of armer of scheeld makeris.
Cumque ingrederetur rex in domum Domini, portabant ea qui praeeundi habebant officium: et postea reportabant ad armamentarium scutariorum.
29 Forsothe, lo! the residue of wordis of Roboam, and alle thingis whiche he dide, ben writun in the book of wordis of daies of kyngis of Juda.
Reliqua autem sermonum Roboam, et omnia quae fecit, ecce scripta sunt in Libro sermonum dierum regum Iuda.
30 And batel was bitwixe Roboam and Jeroboam, in alle daies.
Fuitque bellum inter Roboam et Ieroboam cunctis diebus.
31 And Roboam slepte with hise fadris, and was biried with hem in the citee of Dauid. Forsothe the name of his modir was Naama Amanyte; and Abia, his sone, regnede for hym.
Dormivitque Roboam cum patribus suis, et sepultus est cum eis in civitate David: nomen autem matris eius Naama Ammanitis: et regnavit Abiam filius eius pro eo.
