< II Oihanaalii 10 >
1 HELE aku la o Rhoboama i Sekema, no ka mea, ua hiki mai ka Iseraela a pau i Sekema e hoonoho ia ia i alii.
And Roboam came to Sychem: for all Israel came to Sychem to make him king.
2 Lohe ae la o Ieroboama ke keiki a Nebata, e noho ana ia ma Aigupita kahi ana i mahuka aku ai mai ke alo aku o Solomona ke alii, a hoi mai o Ieroboama mai Aigupita mai.
And it came to pass when Jeroboam the son of Nabat heard [it], (now he was in Egypt, forasmuch as he had fled there from the face of king Solomon, and Jeroboam lived in Egypt, ) that Jeroboam returned out of Egypt.
3 A hoouna aku la lakou a kahea aku ia ia; a hele mai o Ieroboama a me ka Iseraela a pau, a olelo mai la lakou ia Rehoboama, i mai la,
And they sent and called him: and Jeroboam and all the congregation came to Roboam, saying,
4 Ua hookaumaha kou makuakane i ka makou auamo, ano hoi, e hoomama iki i ka hana hooluhi a kou makuakane, a me ka auamo kaumaha ana i kau mai ai maluna o makou, a e hookauwa aku makou nau.
Your father made our yoke grievous: now then abate [somewhat] of your father's grievous rule, and of his heavy yoke which he put upon us, and we will serve you.
5 Olelo aku la oia ia lakou, A hala na la ekolu, e hoi hou mai oukou i o'u nei. A hele aku la na kanaka.
And he said to them, Go away for three days, and [then] come to me. So the people departed.
6 A ahaolelo pu iho la o Rehoboama ke alii me ka poe elemakule, ka poe i ku imua o Solomona, kona makuakane i ka wa o kona ola ana, i aku la, Heaha ka oukou e manao ai i mea e hai aku i keia poe kanaka?
And king Roboam assembled the elders that stood before his father Solomon in his life-time, saying, How do you counsel [me] to return an answer to this people?
7 Olelo lakou ia ia, i mai la, Ina e noho oe i mea e pono ai keia poe kanaka, a e hooluolu aku, a olelo i na mea maikai ia lakou, alaila, e noho mau lakou i poe kauwa nau.
And they spoke to him, saying, If you would this day befriend this people, and be kind to them, and speak to them good words, then will they be your servants for ever.
8 Aka, haalele ae la ia i ka oleloao a ka poe elemakule, ka mea a lakou i ao mai ai, a ahaolelo pu iho la me ka poe kanaka ui, ka poe i noho pu me ia a nui, a e ku ana hoi imua ona.
But he forsook the advice of the old men, who took counsel with him, and he took counsel with the young men who had been brought up with him, who stood before him.
9 I aku la oia ia lakou, Heaha ko oukou manao i mea e olelo aku ai kakou i keia poe kanaka, ka poe i olelo mai ia'u, me ka i ana mai, E hoomama iki i ka auamo a kou makua i kau mai ai maluna o makou.
And he said to them, What do you advise that I should answer this people, who spoke to me, saying, Ease [somewhat] of the yoke which your father laid upon us?
10 Olelo mai la ka poe kanaka ui, ka poe i noho pu me ia a nui, i mai la, Penei kau e olelo aku ai i ka poe kanaka i olelo mai ia oe, i mai ana, Ua hookaumaha kou makuakane i ka makou auamo, ano hoi e hoomama iki i ka makou auamo; penei oe e olelo aku ai ia lakou, E oi aku ka manoanoa o ko'u manamana lima iki i ka puhaka o ko'u makuakane.
And the young men that had been brought up with him spoke to him, saying, Thus shall you speak to the people that spoke to you, saying, Your father made our yoke heavy, and do you lighten [somewhat of it] from us; thus shall you say, My little finger [shall be] thicker than my father's loins.
11 Ua kau mai la ko'u makuakane i auamo kaumaha maluna o oukou, aka hoi, e hoonui au i ka oukou auamo; ua hahau mai ko'u makuakane ia oukou i ka huipa, aka hoi, e hahau au ia oukou i na moohueloawa.
And whereas my father chastised you with a heavy yoke, I will also add to your yoke: my father chastised you with whips, and I will chastise you with scorpions.
12 A hoi mai o Ieroboama a me ka poe kanaka a pau io Rehoboama la i ka po akolu, e like me ka ke alii i olelo aku ai, E hoi mai oukou io'u nei i ke kolu o ka la.
And Jeroboam and all the people came to Roboam on the third day, as the king had spoken, saying, Return to me on the third day.
13 Olelo kalaea aku la ke alii ia lakou; haalele ke alii o Rehoboama i ka oleloao a ka poe elemakule;
And the king answered harshly; and king Roboam forsook the counsel of the old men,
14 A olelo aku la ia lakou e like me ka oleloao a ka poe kanaka ui, i aku la, Ua hookaumaha ko'u makua i ka oukou auamo, aka, e hoonui au ia mea; ua hahau ko'u makuakane ia oukou i ka huipa, aka, owau hoi e hahau ia oukou i na moohueloawa.
and spoke to them according to the counsel of the young men, saying, My father made your yoke heavy, but I will add to it: my father chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.
15 Pela i hoolohe ole aku ai ke alii i na kanaka; no ka mea, no ke Akua mai keia i hooko ai o Iehova i ka olelo ana i olelo mai ai ma o Ahiia la no Silo ia Ieroboama i ke keiki a Nebata.
And the king listened not to the people, for there was a change [of their minds] from God, saying, The Lord has confirmed his word, which he spoke by the hand of Achia the Selonite concerning Jeroboam the son of Nabat, and [concerning] all Israel;
16 A ike ae la ka Iseraela a pau, aole i hoolohe ke alii ia lakou, olelo na kanaka i ke alii, i mai la, Heaha ko makou kuleana iloko o Davida? aohe o makou hooilina iloko o ke keiki a Iese; e hoi no kela kanaka keia kanaka a pau i kona halelewa, e ka Iseraela; ano, e nana oe i kou hale iho, e Davida. Pela i hoi ai ka Iseraela a pau i ko lakou mau halelewa.
for the king did not listen to them. And the people answered the king, saying, What portion have we in David, or inheritance in the son of Jessae? to your tents, O Israel: now see to your own house, David. So all Israel went to their tents.
17 A o ka poe mamo a Iseraela e noho ana iloko o na kulanakauhale o Iuda, nohoalii iho la o Rehoboama maluna o lakou.
But the men of Israel, even those who lived in the cities of Juda, [remained] and made Roboam king over them.
18 Hoouna aku la ke alii o Rehoboama ia Hedorama i ka mea maluna o ka auhau ana, a hailuku na mamo a Iseraela ia ia, a make ia. Alaila, wikiwiki ae la ke alii o Rehoboama e pii maluna o kona hale kaa, a e holo i Ierusalema.
And king Roboam sent to them Adoniram that was over the tribute; and the children of Israel stoned him with stones, and he died. And king Roboam hasted to mount [his] chariot, to flee to Jerusalem.
19 Pela i kipi ai o ka Iseraela i ka ohana a Davida a hiki i keia la.
So Israel rebelled against the house of David until this day.
