1 Rehobowam ya tafi Shekem, gama dukan Isra’ila sun je can don su naɗa shi sarki.
And Rehoboam went to Shechem: for al Israel were come to Sheche, to make him king
2 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.
And whe Ieroboam ye sonne of Nebat heard of it (who was yet in Egypt, whither Ieroboam had fled from king Salomon, and dwelt in Egypt)
3 Saboda haka mutane suka aika Yerobowam yă zo, sai shi da dukan taron Isra’ila suka tafi wurin Rehobowam, suka ce masa,
Then they sent and called him: and Ieroboam and all the Congregation of Israel came, and spake vnto Rehoboam, saying,
4 “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.”
Thy father made our yoke grieuous: now therefore make thou the grieuous seruitude of thy father, and his sore yoke which he put vpon vs, lighter, and we will serue thee.
5 Rehobowam ya amsa, “Ku tafi, bayan kwana uku, ku dawo.” Sai mutane suka watse.
And he said vnto them, Depart yet for three dayes, then come againe to me. And the people departed.
6 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?”
And King Rehoboam tooke counsell with the olde men that had stande before Salomon his father, while he yet liued, and sayde, What counsell giue ye, that I may make an answere to this people?
7 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.”
And they spake vnto him, saying, If thou be a seruant vnto this people this day, and serue them, and answere them, and speake kinde wordes to them, they will be thy seruants for euer.
8 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.
But he forsooke the counsell that the olde men had giuen him, and asked counsell of the yong men that had bene brought vp with him, and waited on him.
9 Ya tambaye su, “Mece ce shawararku? Yaya za mu amsa wa waɗannan mutane masu cewa, ‘Ka sassauta nauyin da mahaifinka ya sa a kanmu’?”
And he said vnto them, What counsell giue ye, that we may answere this people, which haue spoken to me, saying, Make the yoke, which thy father did put vpon vs, lighter?
10 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.
Then the yong men that were brought vp with him, spake vnto him, saying, Thus shalt thou say vnto this people, that haue spoken vnto thee, and said, Thy father hath made our yoke heauie, but make thou it lighter vnto vs: euen thus shalt thou say vnto them, My least part shalbe bigger then my fathers loynes.
11 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.’”
Now where as my father did burden you with a grieuous yoke, I will yet make your yoke heauier: my father hath chastised you with rods, but I will correct you with scourges.
12 Bayan kwana uku, Yerobowam da dukan mutane suka dawo wurin Rehobowam yadda sarki ya faɗa, “Ku dawo gare ni cikin kwana uku.”
Then Ieroboam and all the people came to Rehoboam the third day, as the king had appointed, saying, Come to me againe ye thirde day.
13 Sai Sarki ya amsa wa mutane da zafi. Yana ƙin shawarar da dattawa suka ba shi.
And the king answered the people sharpely, and left the old mens counsell that they gaue him,
14 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.”
And spake to them after the counsell of the yong men, saying, My father made your yoke grieuous, and I will make your yoke more grieuous: my father hath chastised you with rods, but I will correct you with scourges.
15 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.
And the King hearkened not vnto the people: for it was the ordinance of the Lord, that he might perfourme his saying, which the Lord had spoken by Ahiiah the Shilonite vnto Ieroboam the sonne of Nebat.
16 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.
So when all Israel sawe that the King regarded them not, the people answered the King thus, saying, What portion haue we in Dauid? we haue none inheritance in the sonne of Ishai. To your tents, O Israel: nowe see to thine owne house, Dauid. So Israel departed vnto their tents.
17 Amma ga Isra’ilawan da suke zama a garuruwan Yahuda kuwa, Rehobowam ya ci gaba da mulki a kansu.
Howbeit ouer the children of Israel, which dwelt in the cities of Iudah, did Rehoboam reigne still.
18 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.
Nowe the King Rehoboam sent Adoram the receiuer of the tribute, and all Israel stoned him to death: then King Rehoboam made speede to get him vp to his charet, to flee to Ierusalem.
19 Tun daga wannan ranar ne mutanen Isra’ila suka shiga gāba da gidan Dawuda har wa yau.
And Israel rebelled against the house of Dauid vnto this day.
20 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.
And when all Israel had heard that Ieroboam was come againe, they sent and called him vnto the assemblie, and made him King ouer all Israel: none followed the house of Dauid, but the tribe of Iudah onely.
21 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.
And when Rehoboam was come to Ierusalem, he gathered all the house of Iudah with the tribe of Beniamin an hundreth and foure score thousand of chosen men (which were good warriours) to fight against the house of Israel, and to bring the kingdome againe to Rehoboam the sonne of Salomon.
22 Amma waɗannan kalmomin Allah suka zo wa Shemahiya, mutumin Allah, cewa,
But the worde of God came vnto Shemaiah the man of God, saying,
23 “Faɗa wa Rehobowam ɗan Solomon, sarkin Yahuda, ka faɗa wa dukan gidan Yahuda da Benyamin, da kuma dukan sauran mutane,
Speake vnto Rehoboam the sonne of Salomon King of Iudah, and vnto all the house of Iudah and Beniamin, and the remnant of the people, saying,
24 ‘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.
Thus saith the Lord, Ye shall not go vp, nor fight against your brethren the children of Israel: returne euery man to his house: for this thing is done by me. They obeyed therefore the worde of the Lord and returned, and departed, according to the worde of the Lord.
25 Sai Yerobowam ya ƙara gina Shekem a ƙasar tudu ta Efraim, ya zauna a can. Daga can ya tafi ya gina Fenuwel.
Then Ieroboam built Shechem in mount Ephraim, and dwelt therein, and went from thence, and built Penuel.
26 Yerobowam ya yi tunani a ransa ya ce, “Mai yiwuwa mulkin yă koma gidan Dawuda.
And Ieroboam thought in his heart, Nowe shall the kingdome returne to the house of Dauid.
27 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.”
If this people goe vp and doe sacrifice in the house of the Lord at Ierusalem, then shall the heart of this people turne againe vnto their lorde, euen to Rehoboam King of Iudah: so shall they kill me and goe againe to Rehoboam King of Iudah.
28 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.”
Whereupon the King tooke counsell, and made two calues of golde, and saide vnto them, It is too much for you to goe vp to Ierusalem: beholde, O Israel, thy gods, which brought thee vp out of the lande of Egypt.
29 Sai ya kafa ɗaya a Betel, ɗaya kuma a Dan.
And he set the one in Beth-el, and the other set he in Dan.
30 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.
And this thing turned to sinne: for the people went (because of the one) euen to Dan.
31 Yerobowam ya gina masujadai da suke kan tuddai, ya kuma naɗa firistoci barkatai daga cikin mutanen da ba na zuriyar Lawi ba.
Also he made an house of hie places, and made Priestes of the lowest of the people, which were not of the sonnes of Leui.
32 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.
And Ieroboam made a feast the fifteenth day of the eight moneth, like vnto the feast that is in Iudah, and offred on the altar. So did he in Beth-el and offered vnto the calues that he had made: and he placed in Beth-el the Priestes of the hie places, which he had made.
33 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.
And he offered vpon the altar, which he had made in Beth-el, the fifteenth day of the eight moneth, (euen in the moneth which he had forged of his owne heart) and made a solemne feast vnto the children of Israel: and he went vp to the altar, to burne incense.
