2 Tarihi 12
1 Bayan mulkin Rehobowam ya kahu kamar sarki ya kuma yi ƙarfi, shi da dukan Isra’ila suka yi biris da dokar Ubangiji.
Once Rehoboam was secure on the throne and was sure of his power, he together with all the Israelites abandoned the law of the Lord.
2 Domin sun yi rashin biyayya ga Ubangiji, saboda haka Shishak sarkin Masar ya yaƙi Urushalima a shekara ta biyar ta Sarki Rehobowam.
In the fifth year of Rehoboam's reign, Shishak, king of Egypt, came and attacked Jerusalem because they had been unfaithful to God.
3 Da kekunan yaƙi dubu ɗaya da ɗari biyu da kuma mahayan dawakai dubu haɗe da mayaƙan Libiyawa, Sukkatawa da kuma Kushawa waɗanda suka wuce ƙidaya suka zo tare da shi daga Masar,
He came from Egypt with 1,200 chariots, 60,000 horsemen, and an army that couldn't be counted Egypt—Libyans, Sukkites, and Cushites.
4 ya ci biranen katanga na Yahuda har zuwa Urushalima.
He conquered the fortified towns of Judah and then approached Jerusalem.
5 Sai annabi Shemahiya ya zo wurin Rehobowam da kuma wajen shugabannin Yahuda waɗanda suka taru a Urushalima don tsoron Shishak, ya kuma faɗa musu, “Ga abin da Ubangiji ya ce, ‘Kun yi biris da ni; saboda haka, yanzu na bashe ku ga Shishak.’”
Shemaiah the prophet came to Rehoboam and the leaders of Judah who had run for safety Jerusalem because of Shishak. He told them, “This is what the Lord says: ‘You have abandoned me, so I have abandoned you to Shishak.’”
6 Shugabannin Isra’ila da sarki suka ƙasƙantar da kansu suka ce, “Ubangiji mai adalci ne.”
The leaders of Israel and the king admitted they were wrong and said, “The Lord is right.”
7 Sa’ad da Ubangiji ya ga sun ƙasƙantar da kansu, sai wannan maganar Ubangiji ta zo wa Shemahiya, “Tun da yake sun ƙasƙantar da kansu, to, ba zan hallaka su ba, amma zan cece su, ba zan kwararo fushina ta hannun Shishak a kan Urushalima ba.
When the Lord saw that they had repented, he sent a message to Shemaiah, saying, “They have repented. I won't destroy them, and I will soon save them. My anger won't be poured out on Jerusalem through Shishak.
8 Duk da haka za su zama bayinsa, don su san bambanci tsakanin yin mini bauta da kuma yin wa sarakunan sauran ƙasashe bauta.”
Even so they will become his subjects, so that they can learn the difference between serving me and serving the kings of earth.”
9 Da Shishak sarkin Masar ya yaƙi Urushalima, sai ya kwashi ma’ajin haikalin Ubangiji da kuma ma’ajin fadan sarki. Ya kwashe kome da kome, har da garkuwoyin zinariyar da Solomon ya yi.
King Shishak of Egypt attacked Jerusalem and took the treasures of the Lord's Temple and the treasures of the royal palace. He took away everything, including the gold shields that Solomon had made.
10 Sai sarki Rehobowam ya ƙera garkuwoyin tagulla a madadin na zinariya, ya sa su a hannun shugabannin matsara na mashigin gidan sarki.
Later Rehoboam replaced them with bronze shields and gave them to be looked after by the commanders of the guard stationed at the entrance to the royal palace.
11 Duk sa’ad da sarki ya tafi haikalin Ubangiji, masu tsaron sukan tafi tare da shi, suna riƙe da garkuwoyi, daga baya kuma su mai da su a ɗakin tsaro.
Whenever the king would enter the Temple of the Lord the guards would go with him, carrying the shields, and then take them back to the guardroom.
12 Gama Rehobowam ya ƙasƙantar da kansa, fushin Ubangiji ya bar shi, ba a kuwa hallaka shi ƙaƙaf ba. Tabbatacce an yi’yan abubuwa masu kyau a Yahuda.
Because Rehoboam repented, the anger of the Lord did not fall on him, and the Lord did not destroy him completely. Things went well in Judah.
13 Sarki Rehobowam ya kafa kansa daram a Urushalima, ya kuma ci gaba a matsayin sarki. Yana da shekara arba’in da ɗaya sa’ad da ya zama sarki, ya kuma yi mulki shekara goma sha bakwai a Urushalima, birnin da Ubangiji ya zaɓa daga dukan kabilan Isra’ila wanda zai sa Sunansa. Sunan mahaifiyarsa Na’ama ce, ita mutuniyar Ammon ce.
King Rehoboam became powerful in Jerusalem. He was forty-one when he became king, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city the Lord had chosen from all the tribes of Israel where he would be honored. The name of his mother was Naamah the Ammonite.
14 Ya aikata mugunta domin bai sa zuciyarsa ga neman Ubangiji ba.
But Rehoboam did what was evil because he did not commit himself to following the Lord.
15 Game da ayyukan mulkin Rehobowam, daga farko zuwa ƙarshe, ba a rubuce suke a tarihin Shemahiya annabi da Iddo mai gani wanda yake zancen zuriyoyi ba? Aka kasance da yaƙe-yaƙe tsakanin Rehobowam da Yerobowam.
What Rehoboam did, from beginning to end, is written down in the records of Shemaiah the Prophet and of Iddo the Seer dealing with genealogies. However, Rehoboam and Jeroboam were always at war with each other.
16 Rehobowam ya huta da kakanninsa aka kuma binne shi a Birnin Dawuda. Abiya ɗansa kuma ya gāje shi a matsayin sarki.
Rehoboam died and was buried in the City of David. His son Abijah took over as king.
