2 Cronicas 13

1 Iti maikasangapulo ket walo a tawen a panagturay ni Ari Jeroboam, nangrugi a nagturay ni Abias iti entero a Juda.

In the eighteenth year of Jeroboam’s reign, Abijah became king of Judah,

2 Nagturay isuna iti tallo a tawen idiay Jerusalem; Maaca ti nagan ti inana a putot ni Uriel a taga-Gabaa. Rimsua ti panaggubat da Abias ken Jeroboam.

and he reigned in Jerusalem three years. His mother’s name was Micaiah daughter of Uriel; she was from Gibeah. And there was war between Abijah and Jeroboam.

3 Napan nakigubat ni Abias a kaduana dagiti napipigsa ken natutured a soldado, 400, 000 a napili a lallaki. Nagsagana ni Jeroboam a makigubat kenkuana a kaduana ti 800, 000 a napili a lallaki, a napipigsa ken natutured a soldado.

Abijah went into battle with an army of 400,000 chosen men, while Jeroboam drew up in formation against him with 800,000 chosen and mighty men of valor.

4 Nagtakder ni Abias iti tapaw ti Bantay Zemaraim, nga adda iti katurturodan a pagilian ti Efraim, ket kinunana, “Dumngegkayo kaniak, Jeroboam ken amin a tattao ti Israel!

Then Abijah stood on Mount Zemaraim in the hill country of Ephraim and said, “Hear me, O Jeroboam and all Israel!

5 Saanyo kadi nga ammo nga inted ni Yahweh a Dios ti Israel kenni David ken kadagiti putotna a lallaki ti panangituray iti Israel iti agnanayon babaen iti katulagan?

Do you not know that the LORD, the God of Israel, has given the kingship of Israel to David and his descendants forever by a covenant of salt?

6 Ngem ni Jeroboam a putot a lalaki ni Nebat, nga adipen ni Solomon a putot ni David ket bimmusor iti amona.

Yet Jeroboam son of Nebat, a servant of Solomon son of David, rose up and rebelled against his master.

7 Nakitipon kenkuana dagiti awan serserbina ken agkakadakes a lallaki. Bimmusorda kenni Rehoboam a putot ni Solomon, idi agtutubo pay laeng ni Rehoboam ken awan pay kapadasanna ken saanna a masuppiat ida.

Then worthless and wicked men gathered around him to resist Rehoboam son of Solomon when he was young, inexperienced, and unable to resist them.

8 Ita, kunam a kabaelam a suppiaten ti bileg ti panangituray ni Yahweh iti ima dagiti kaputotan ni David. Dakkelkayo nga armada ken adda kadakayo dagiti sinan-baka a balitok nga inaramid ni Jeroboam nga agpaay a diosyo.

And now you think you can resist the kingdom of the LORD, which is in the hands of David’s descendants. You are indeed a vast army, and you have with you the golden calves that Jeroboam made for you as gods.

9 Saan kadi a pinagtalawyo dagiti padi ni Yahweh, a kaputotan ni Aaron, ken dagiti Levita? Saan kadi a nangdutokkayo kadagiti bukodyo a padi a kas iti ar-aramiden dagiti tattao kadagiti sabali a daga? Siasinoman ti umay a mangikonsagrar iti bagina babaen iti maysa nga urbon a baka ken pito a kalakian a karnero ket mabalinnan nga agbalin a padi dagiti didiosen.

But did you not drive out the priests of the LORD, the sons of Aaron, and the Levites? And did you not make priests for yourselves as do the peoples of other lands? Now whoever comes to consecrate himself with a young bull and seven rams can become a priest of things that are not gods.

10 Ngem maipapan kadakami, ni Yahweh ti Diosmi, ket saanmi isuna a tinallikudan. Addaankami kadagiti padi nga agserserbi kenni Yahweh, dagiti kaputotan ni Aaron ken dagiti Levita nga adda kadagiti trabahoda.

But as for us, the LORD is our God. We have not forsaken Him; the priests who minister to the LORD are sons of Aaron, and the Levites attend to their duties.

11 Binigat ken rinabii nga agpuorda kadagiti daton a maipuor ken nabanglo nga insenso nga agpaay kenni Yahweh. Idatagda pay dagiti tinapay a datonda iti nadalus a lamisaan; ay-aywananda pay dagiti kandelero a balitok agraman dagiti pagsilawan dagitoy, ta pasgedanda dagitoy iti tunggal rabii. Tungtungpalenmi dagiti bilin ni Yahweh a Diosmi, ngem tinallikudanyo isuna.

Every morning and every evening they present burnt offerings and fragrant incense to the LORD. They set out the rows of showbread on the ceremonially clean table, and every evening they light the lamps of the gold lampstand. We are carrying out the requirements of the LORD our God, while you have forsaken Him.

12 Kitaenyo, adda ti Dios kadakami a kas pangulomi, ken adda dagiti padina a nakaigem kadagiti trumpeta a paunienda a kas mangipakaammo iti pananggubatmi kadakayo. Tattao ti Israel, saanyo a gubaten ni Yahweh a Dios dagiti kapuonanyo, ta saankayo nga agballigi.”

Now behold, God Himself is with us as our head, and His priests with their trumpets sound the battle call against you. O children of Israel, do not fight against the LORD, the God of your fathers, for you will not succeed.”

13 Ngem nangisagana ni Jeroboam iti mangraut iti armada ti Juda iti likudanda, adda ti armadana iti sangoanan ti Juda, ket adda iti likudanda dagiti agsaneb.

Now Jeroboam had sent troops around to ambush from the rear, so that while he was in front of Judah, the ambush was behind them.

14 Idi timmalliaw dagiti soldado ti Juda, addan dagiti kabusorda iti sangoanan ken likudanda. Immawagda kenni Yahweh, ket pinaguni dagiti padi dagiti trumpeta.

When Judah turned and discovered that the battle was both before and behind them, they cried out to the LORD. Then the priests blew the trumpets,

15 Kalpasanna, nagpukkaw dagiti lallaki ti Juda, kabayatan iti panagpukkawda, dinangran ti Dios ni Jeroboam ken ti sibubukel nga armada ti Israel iti imatang ni Abias ken ti Juda.

and the men of Judah raised the battle cry. And when they raised the cry, God routed Jeroboam and all Israel before Abijah and Judah.

16 Intarayan dagiti tattao ti Israel ti Juda, ket inyawat ida ti Dios iti ima ti Juda.

So the Israelites fled before Judah, and God delivered them into their hands.

17 Pinapatay ida ni Abias ken ti armadana ket adu ti napapatayda; 500, 000 a napili a lallaki ti Israel ti natay.

Then Abijah and his people struck them with a mighty blow, and 500,000 chosen men of Israel fell slain.

18 Iti kastoy a wagas, naparmek dagiti tattao ti Israel iti dayta a tiempo; nangabak dagiti tattao ti Juda gapu ta nagtalekda kenni Yahweh a Dios dagiti kapuonanda.

Thus the Israelites were subdued at that time, and the men of Judah prevailed because they relied on the LORD, the God of their fathers.

19 Kinamat ni Abias ni Jeroboam; sinakupna dagiti siudad ni Jeroboam: ti Betel agraman dagiti barrio daytoy, ti Jesana agraman dagiti barrio daytoy, ken ti Efron agraman dagiti barrio daytoy.

Abijah pursued Jeroboam and captured some cities from him: Bethel, Jeshanah, and Ephron, along with their villages.

20 Saanen a napasubli ni Jeroboam ti bilegna kabayatan dagiti aldaw ni Abias; dinangran isuna ni Yahweh ket natay.

Jeroboam did not again recover his power during the days of Abijah, and the LORD struck him down and he died.

21 Ngem bimmileg ni Abias; nangasawa isuna iti sangapulo ket uppat ken naaddaan iti putot a duapulo ket dua a lallaki ken sangapulo ket innem a babbai.

But Abijah grew strong, married fourteen wives, and became the father of twenty-two sons and sixteen daughters.

22 Naisurat dagiti dadduma nga aramid ni Abias, ti kagagaladna, ken dagiti sasaona iti pakasaritaan ni profeta Iddo.

Now the rest of the acts of Abijah, along with his ways and his words, are written in the Treatise of the Prophet Iddo.
