Bere a Nebat babarima Yeroboam tee sɛ Salomo awu no, ofi Misraim bae, efisɛ oguan fii ɔhene Salomo nsam kɔtenaa Misraim.
3 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ a Isiraeli magĩtũmanĩra Jeroboamu, nake Jeroboamu hamwe na kĩũngano gĩothe gĩa Isiraeli magĩthiĩ kũrĩ Rehoboamu makĩmwĩra atĩrĩ:
Enti Israel mpanyimfo soma ma wɔkɔfaa Yeroboam, na Israel nnipadɔm no nyinaa kɔɔ Rehoboam nkyɛn, ne no kɔkasae se,
4 “Thoguo nĩatũigĩrĩire icooki iritũ, no rĩu tũhũthĩrie wĩra ũcio mũritũ na icooki rĩu iritũ rĩrĩa aatũigĩrĩire, na nĩtũrĩgũtungatagĩra.”
“Wʼagya hyɛɛ yɛn ma yɛyɛɛ adwumaden. Yɛsrɛ wo, tew saa adwumaden ne sonkahiri adesoa duruduru a wʼagya de soaa yɛn no so. Woyɛ saa a, yɛbɛsom wo nokware mu.”
5 Rehoboamu akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Thiĩi mũgaacooka kũrĩ niĩ thuutha wa mĩthenya ĩtatũ.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ magĩĩthiĩra.
Rehoboam buae se, “Momma me nnansa na menwene mo asɛm yi ho. Ɛno akyi, mommra mmegye me mmuae.” Enti nnipa no san kɔe.
6 Thuutha ũcio Mũthamaki Rehoboamu akĩhooya kĩrĩra kũrĩ athuuri arĩa maatungatagĩra ithe Solomoni rĩrĩa aarĩ muoyo. Akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Mũngĩndaara njookerie andũ aya atĩa?”
Na Ɔhene Rehoboam kɔɔ ne mpanyimfo bi a na wotu nʼagya Salomo fo ne wɔn kosusuw asɛm no ho. Obisaa wɔn se, “Moka asɛm no ho dɛn? Mmuae bɛn na memfa mma saa nnipa yi?”
7 Nao makĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Ũmũthĩ ũngĩĩtĩkĩra gũtuĩka ndungata ya andũ aya na ũmatungatĩre, na ũmacookerie na njĩra njagĩrĩru-rĩ, megũtũũra marĩ ndungata ciaku hĩndĩ ciothe.”
Wobuaa no se, “Sɛ nnɛ yi, wopɛ sɛ woyɛ ɔsomfo ma saa nnipa yi, na woma wɔn mmuae pa a, ɛno de, daa wɔbɛsom wo nokware mu.”
8 No Rehoboamu akĩregana na ũtaaro ũrĩa athuuri acio maamũheire, na akĩhooya kĩrĩra kuuma kũrĩ aanake a riika rĩake, arĩa maamũtungatagĩra.
Nanso Rehoboam amfa afotu a mpanyimfo no maa no no. Mmom, ɔkɔɔ nʼatipɛnfo mmabun bi a ɔne wɔn sii so a na wotu no fo no nkyɛn.
9 Akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Inyuĩ mũngĩndaara atĩa? Andũ aya maranjĩĩra atĩ, ‘Tũhũthĩrie icooki rĩrĩa thoguo aatũigĩrĩire’ Ingĩmacookeria atĩa?”
Okobisaa wɔn se, “Mo nso, mo afotu ne dɛn? Mmuae bɛn na memfa mma saa nnipa a wɔpɛ sɛ metew adesoa duruduru a mʼagya de soaa wɔn no so?”
10 Aanake acio a riika rĩake makĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Cookeria andũ acio makwĩrĩte atĩ, ‘Thoguo nĩatũigĩrĩire icooki iritũ, nowe tũhũthĩrie icooki rĩu,’ ũmeere atĩrĩ, ‘kaara gakwa ka mũira nĩ gatungu gũkĩra njohero ya baba.
Mmerante no buae se, “Asɛm a ɛsɛ sɛ woka kyerɛ wɔn ne se, ‘Me nsateaa ketewa no mu piw sen mʼagya asen mu. Na sɛ modwene sɛ na ɔyɛ den wɔ mo so a, montwɛn na mubehu sɛnea mete.’
11 Baba aamũigĩrĩire icooki iritũ; niĩ nĩngũrĩritũhia makĩria. Baba aamũhũũraga na iboko; no niĩ ndĩrĩmũhũũraga na tũngʼaurũ.’”
Yiw, mʼagya yɛɛ den wɔ mo so, na mɛyɛ aboro saa. Mʼagya hwee mo mpire na me de, mede nkekantwɛre na ɛbɛhwe mo.”
12 Thuutha wa mĩthenya ĩtatũ Jeroboamu na andũ othe magĩcooka kũrĩ Rehoboamu, o ta ũrĩa mũthamaki oigĩte atĩrĩ, “Mũgaacooka kũrĩ niĩ thuutha wa mĩthenya ĩtatũ.”
Nnansa akyi no, Yeroboam ne nnipa no nyinaa san baa sɛ wɔrebetie Rehoboam mmuae sɛnea ɔkae no.
13 Mũthamaki agĩcookeria andũ acio ũhoro ehĩte mũno. Akĩregana na ũtaaro ũrĩa aaheetwo nĩ athuuri,
Ɔhene no buaa nnipa no abufuw so. Wamfa mpanyimfo no afotu no;
14 akĩrũmĩrĩra ũtaaro wa aanake, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Baba nĩamũritũhĩirie icooki, no niĩ nĩngũrĩritũhia makĩria. Baba aamũhũũraga na iboko; niĩ ndĩrĩmũhũũraga na tũngʼaurũ.”
ɔfaa mmabun no afotu. Ɔka kyerɛɛ nnipa no se, “Mʼagya yɛɛ den wɔ mo so, na mɛyɛ aboro saa. Mʼagya hwee mo mpire na me de mede nkekantwɛre bɛkeka mo.”
15 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio mũthamaki ndaigana gũthikĩrĩria andũ acio, tondũ maũndũ macio meekĩkire moimĩte kũrĩ Jehova, nĩguo kiugo kĩhingio kĩrĩa Jehova eerire Jeroboamu mũrũ wa Nebati na kanua ka Ahija ũrĩa Mũshiloni.
Enti ɔhene no anyɛ nnipa no abisade no ho hwee. Saa nsɛm a esisii yi yɛ Onyankopɔn nhyehyɛe, efisɛ ɛmaa Awurade nkɔm a ɔnam odiyifo Ahiya a ofi Silo no hyɛɛ Nebat babarima Yeroboam no baa mu.
16 Rĩrĩa andũ othe a Isiraeli moonire atĩ mũthamaki ũcio nĩarega kũmathikĩrĩria, magĩcookeria mũthamaki atĩrĩ: “Tũrĩ na igai rĩrĩkũ harĩ Daudi, na nĩ gĩcunjĩ kĩrĩkũ tũrĩ nakĩo harĩ mũrũ wa Jesii? Cooka hema-inĩ ciaku wee Isiraeli! Wee Daudi-rĩ, menyerera nyũmba yaku wee mwene.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ othe a Isiraeli makĩinũka.
Bere a Israel nyinaa huu sɛ ɔhene anyɛ wɔn abisade amma wɔn no, wɔteɛteɛɛ mu se, “Yɛne Dawid nni hwee yɛ! Yɛne Yisai babarima no nni hwee yɛ! Israel, momma yɛnkɔ yɛn nkyi! Dawid, hwɛ wʼankasa wo fi so!” Enti Israelfo no san kɔɔ wɔn fi.
17 No andũ a Isiraeli arĩa maatũũraga matũũra-inĩ ma Juda-rĩ, Rehoboamu agĩthiĩ na mbere kũmathamakĩra.
Na Rehoboam kɔɔ so dii Israelfo a na wɔtete Yuda nkurow so no so hene.
18 Mũthamaki Rehoboamu agĩtũma Adoniramu ũrĩa warĩ mũrũgamĩrĩri wa andũ arĩa maarutithagio wĩra na hinya, no andũ a Isiraeli makĩmũhũũra na mahiga nyuguto, agĩkua. No Rehoboamu agĩĩthara, akĩhaica ngaari-inĩ yake ya ita, akĩũrĩra Jerusalemu.
Ɔhene Rehoboam somaa Adoram a na ɔhwɛ adwumayɛfo so no sɛ ɔnkɔhwɛ mma ɔman no nyɛ dinn, nanso Israelfo no siw no abo kum no. Bere a ɔhene Rehoboam tee saa asɛm no, ntɛm ara, ohuruw tenaa ne teaseɛnam mu, guan kɔɔ Yerusalem.
19 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ a Isiraeli matũire maremeire nyũmba ya Daudi nginya ũmũthĩ.
Israel mmusuakuw a wɔwɔ atifi fam no ampene sɛ Dawid aseni biara bedi wɔn so, de besi nnɛ.
20 Rĩrĩa andũ a Isiraeli othe maaiguire atĩ Jeroboamu nĩacookete kuuma bũrũri wa Misiri, makĩmũtũmanĩra oke kĩũngano-inĩ, na makĩmũtua mũthamaki wa Isiraeli guothe. Mũhĩrĩga wa Juda noguo wiki warũmĩrĩire nyũmba ya Daudi.
Bere a Israelfo tee sɛ Yeroboam fi Misraim asan aba no, wɔyɛɛ nhyiamu, sii no hene wɔ Israel nyinaa so. Enti Yuda abusuakuw no nko ara na wɔkae, som Dawid fi nokware mu.
21 Rĩrĩa Rehoboamu aakinyire Jerusalemu, akĩũngania andũ othe a nyũmba ya Juda na a mũhĩrĩga wa Benjamini andũ 180,000 a kũrũa mbaara nĩgeetha makarũe na nyũmba ya Isiraeli, nĩguo macookerie Rehoboamu mũrũ wa Solomoni ũthamaki.
Bere a Rehoboam duu Yerusalem no, ɔboaboaa Yuda ne Benyamin asraafo ano. Oyii akofo mpem ɔha ne aduɔwɔtwe, sɛ wɔrekɔko atia Israel asraafo, na wɔafa ahemman no adi so.
22 No rĩrĩ, kiugo kĩa Ngai gĩgĩkinyĩra Shemaia mũndũ wa Ngai akĩĩrwo atĩrĩ:
Nanso Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ Semaia, Onyankopɔn nipa no se,
23 “Thiĩ wĩre Rehoboamu mũrũ wa Solomoni mũthamaki wa Juda, na nyũmba ya Juda yothe o na ya Benjamini na andũ arĩa angĩ othe, ũmeere atĩrĩ,
“Ka kyerɛ Salomo babarima Rehoboam, Yudahene ne nnipa a wofi Yuda ne Benyamin se,
24 ‘Jehova ekuuga ũũ: Tigai kwambata mũkahũũrane na ariũ a ithe wanyu, andũ a Isiraeli. O mũndũ wanyu wothe nĩacooke mũciĩ, nĩgũkorwo nĩ niĩ njĩkĩte ũndũ ũyũ.’” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio magĩathĩkĩra kiugo kĩa Jehova, magĩcooka mũciĩ o ta ũrĩa Jehova aathanĩte.
‘Sɛnea Awurade se ni, Mo ne mo nuanom Israelfo nntwa mo ho nko. Monsan nkɔ mo akyi, na nea asi no nyinaa fi me!’” Enti wotiee Awurade asɛm no, san kɔɔ wɔn fi sɛnea Awurade hyɛe no.
25 Nake Jeroboamu akĩirigĩra itũũra rĩa Shekemu na rũthingo rwa hinya thĩinĩ wa bũrũri ũrĩa ũrĩ irĩma wa Efiraimu, agĩtũũra kuo. Kuuma kũu agĩthiĩ agĩaka itũũra rĩa Penieli.
Yeroboam kyekyeree Sekem kurow wɔ Efraim bepɔw asase so ma ɛbɛyɛɛ ne kuropɔn. Akyiri no, ɔkɔkyekyeree kurow Penuel.
26 Jeroboamu agĩĩciiria atĩrĩ, “Ũthamaki wahota gũcookerera nyũmba ya Daudi.
Yeroboam dwenee ho dinn, see ne koma mu se, “Sɛ manhwɛ yiye a, ahemman no bɛsan akɔ Dawid fifo adedifo nsam.
27 Andũ aya mangĩambata mathiĩ makarute magongona hekarũ-inĩ ya Jehova kũu Jerusalemu-rĩ, nĩmagacooka gwathĩkĩra mwathi wao Rehoboamu mũthamaki wa Juda. Nĩmakanjũraga na macookerere Mũthamaki Rehoboamu.”
Na sɛ wɔkɔ Yerusalem, kɔbɔ afɔre wɔ Awurade Asɔredan mu nso a, wɔbɛsom Yudahene Rehoboam. Ɛba saa a, wobekum me, de ɔno mmom asi wɔn so hene.”
28 Thuutha wa kũhooya ũtaaro, mũthamaki nĩathondekire mĩhianano ĩĩrĩ ya njaũ cia thahabu. Akĩĩra andũ atĩrĩ, “Ũhoro wa kwambataga Jerusalemu nĩũkũmũritũhĩra mũno. Atĩrĩrĩ Isiraeli, ici ngai cianyu, iria ciamũrutire bũrũri wa Misiri.”
Enti otiee nea nʼafotufo ka, na ɔyɛɛ sikakɔkɔɔ anantwi mma abien. Ɔka kyerɛɛ nnipa no se, “Ɛyɛ ɔbrɛ bebree sɛ mobɛforo akɔ Yerusalem akɔsom. Ɛno nti, Israel, eyinom ne anyame a woyii mo fii Misraim!”
29 Mũhianano ũmwe akĩũiga Betheli, na ũrĩa ũngĩ akĩũiga Dani.
Ɔde nantwi mma ahoni yi sisii Israel anafo ne atifi, wɔ Bet-El ne Dan.
30 Naguo ũndũ ũyũ ũgĩtuĩka mehia; nĩgũkorwo andũ nĩmathiiaga o nginya Dani kũhooya mũhianano ũrĩa warĩ kũu.
Eyi bɛyɛɛ bɔne kɛse, efisɛ nnipa no som ahoni no, a na mpo wotwa kwan kɔ Dan.
31 Jeroboamu nĩaakire mahooero kũndũ kũrĩa gũtũũgĩru, na agĩthuura athĩnjĩri-ngai a kuuma kũrĩ andũ a mĩthemba yothe, o na gũtuĩka matiarĩ Alawii.
Yeroboam sisii abosonnan wɔ nkoko so, na ɔpaw asɔfo fii nnipa no mu a na womfi Lewi asɔfo abusua mu.
32 Akĩambĩrĩria gĩathĩ mũthenya wa ikũmi na ĩtano mweri-inĩ wa ĩnana, ũtuĩke ta gĩathĩ kĩrĩa kĩagomanagwo Juda, na akĩrutĩra magongona kĩgongona-inĩ. Eekire ũguo kũu Betheli, akĩrutĩra mĩhianano ĩyo ya njaũ aathondekete magongona. Ningĩ kũu Betheli akĩiga athĩnjĩri-ngai kũndũ kũu gũtũũgĩru aathondekete.
Yeroboam hyehyɛɛ nyamesom dapɔnna wɔ Bet-El a na wodi saa nna no Bul ɔsram (bɛyɛ Ahinime) mu a na ɛte sɛ Yuda Guankɔbea Afahyɛ no ara. Bet-El hɔ na ɔno ankasa bɔɔ afɔre maa nantwimma ahoni a wayɛ no. Na Bet-El hɔ ara nso na ɔpaw asɔfo maa abosomfi a osisii no.

Na ɔno ankasa yii da bi too hɔ, Bul ɔsram (bɛyɛ Ɔsannaa) mfimfini mu hɔ, na Yeroboam kɔbɔɔ afɔre wɔ afɔremuka so wɔ Bet-El. Ɔhyɛɛ anyamesom afahyɛ ase maa Israel, na ɔforo kɔɔ afɔremuka no so kɔhyew aduhuam.
