< 1 Raja-raja 14 >

1 Pada waktu itu anak laki-laki Yerobeam yang bernama Abia jatuh sakit.
At that time Abijah the son of Jeroboam fell sick.
2 Berkatalah Yerobeam kepada istrinya, "Bersiap-siaplah untuk pergi ke Silo ke rumah Nabi Ahia yang dahulu mengatakan bahwa saya akan menjadi raja Israel. Tetapi menyamarlah supaya orang tidak tahu siapa engkau.
And Jeroboam said to his wife, Arise, I pray you, and disguise yourself, that you be not known to be the wife of Jeroboam; and get you to Shiloh: behold, there is Ahijah the prophet, which told me that I should be king over this people.
3 Bawalah untuk dia sepuluh roti, sedikit kue dan madu sebotol. Tanyalah kepadanya apa yang akan terjadi dengan Abia, anak kita. Nabi itu akan memberitahukannya kepadamu."
And take with you ten loaves, and cracknels, and a cruse of honey, and go to him: he shall tell you what shall become of the child.
4 Maka pergilah istri Yerobeam ke rumah Nabi Ahia di Silo. Nabi itu tidak bisa melihat lagi karena ia sudah tua sekali.
And Jeroboam's wife did so, and arose, and went to Shiloh, and came to the house of Ahijah. But Ahijah could not see; for his eyes were set by reason of his age.
5 Tetapi TUHAN memberitahukan kepadanya bahwa istri Yerobeam sedang datang untuk menanyakan tentang anaknya yang sakit. Dan TUHAN juga memberitahukan kepada Nabi Ahia apa yang harus dikatakannya nanti. Ketika istri Yerobeam tiba di sana, ia berbuat seolah-olah ia orang lain.
And the LORD said unto Ahijah, Behold, the wife of Jeroboam comes to ask a thing of you for her son; for he is sick: thus and thus shall you say unto her: for it shall be, when she comes in, that she shall feign herself to be another woman.
6 Tetapi begitu Nabi Ahia mendengar bunyi langkahnya di pintu, ia berkata, "Mari masuk, saya tahu engkau istri Yerobeam. Tak usah berpura-pura. Ada berita buruk untukmu.
And it was so, when Ahijah heard the sound of her feet, as she came in at the door, that he said, Come in, you wife of Jeroboam; why feign you yourself to be another? for I am sent to you with heavy tidings.
7 Pulanglah dan beritahukan kepada Yerobeam bahwa inilah yang dikatakan TUHAN, Allah Israel, 'Engkau telah Kupilih dari antara rakyat dan Kujadikan penguasa atas umat-Ku Israel.
Go, tell Jeroboam, Thus says the LORD God of Israel, Forasmuch as I exalted you from among the people, and made you prince over my people Israel,
8 Engkau telah Kuberikan kerajaan yang Kurenggut dari keturunan Daud. Tetapi engkau tidak seperti hamba-Ku Daud. Ia setia betul kepada-Ku dan taat kepada perintah-Ku. Ia melakukan hanya yang Kusetujui.
And rent the kingdom away from the house of David, and gave it you: and yet you have not been as my servant David, who kept my commandments, and who followed me with all his heart, to do that only which was right in mine eyes;
9 Tetapi engkau melakukan kejahatan yang lebih besar daripada yang dilakukan oleh mereka yang memerintah sebelum engkau. Engkau meninggalkan Aku dan membangkitkan amarah-Ku dengan membuat berhala serta patung-patung dari logam untuk disembah.
But have done evil above all that were before you: for you have gone and made you other gods, and molten images, to provoke me to anger, and have cast me behind your back:
10 Karena itu Aku akan mendatangkan celaka ke atas keluargamu. Semua keturunanmu yang laki-laki, apa pun kedudukannya, akan dibunuh. Aku akan melenyapkan keluargamu, sama seperti orang menyapu bersih kotoran.
Therefore, behold, I will bring evil upon the house of Jeroboam, and will cut off from Jeroboam him that pisses against the wall, and him that is shut up and left in Israel, and will take away the remnant of the house of Jeroboam, as a man takes away dung, till it be all gone.
11 Anggota keluargamu yang mati di kota akan dimakan anjing, dan yang mati di luar kota akan dimakan burung. Ingat, Akulah TUHAN yang berbicara!'"
Him that dies of Jeroboam in the city shall the dogs eat; and him that dies in the field shall the fowls of the air eat: for the LORD has spoken it.
12 Selanjutnya Nabi Ahia berkata kepada istri Yerobeam, "Nah, pulanglah sekarang! Pada saat engkau memasuki kota, anakmu itu akan meninggal.
Arise you therefore, get you to your own house: and when your feet enter into the city, the child shall die.
13 Seluruh rakyat Israel akan berkabung dan menguburkannya. Dialah satu-satunya anggota keluarga Yerobeam yang akan dikubur secara terhormat, sebab hanya dia yang berkenan di hati TUHAN, Allah Israel.
And all Israel shall mourn for him, and bury him: for he only of Jeroboam shall come to the grave, because in him there is found some good thing toward the LORD God of Israel in the house of Jeroboam.
14 Israel akan diberi TUHAN seorang raja yang akan mengakhiri kedudukan keturunan Yerobeam sebagai raja. Harinya sudah tiba! Mulai sekarang
Moreover the LORD shall raise him up a king over Israel, who shall cut off the house of Jeroboam that day: but what? even now.
15 TUHAN akan menghukum Israel sehingga tergoyang-goyang seperti gelagah di dalam air. TUHAN akan mencabut rakyat Israel dari negeri yang baik ini yang diberikan-Nya kepada leluhur mereka. Ia akan menceraiberaikan mereka ke seberang Sungai Efrat, karena mereka telah membangkitkan kemarahan-Nya dengan membuat patung-patung dewi Asyera.
For the LORD shall strike Israel, as a reed is shaken in the water, and he shall root up Israel out of this good land, which he gave to their fathers, and shall scatter them beyond the river, because they have made their groves, provoking the LORD to anger.
16 TUHAN akan meninggalkan Israel karena Yerobeam telah berdosa dan menyebabkan orang Israel pun berdosa juga."
And he shall give Israel up because of the sins of Jeroboam, who did sin, and who made Israel to sin.
17 Setelah itu berangkatlah istri Yerobeam ke Tirza. Pada saat ia masuk ke rumahnya, anaknya meninggal.
And Jeroboam's wife arose, and departed, and came to Tirzah: and when she came to the threshold of the door, the child died;
18 Rakyat Israel berkabung lalu menguburkannya seperti yang telah dikatakan TUHAN melalui Nabi Ahia, hamba-Nya.
And they buried him; and all Israel mourned for him, according to the word of the LORD, which he spoke by the hand of his servant Ahijah the prophet.
19 Kisah lainnya mengenai Raja Yerobeam, yaitu pemerintahannya dan peperangan yang dipimpinnya, sudah dicatat dalam buku Sejarah Raja-raja Israel.
And the rest of the acts of Jeroboam, how he warred, and how he reigned, behold, they are written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.
20 Dua puluh dua tahun lamanya Yerobeam memerintah sebagai raja, kemudian ia meninggal dan dikubur. Anaknya yang bernama Nadab menggantikan dia sebagai raja.
And the days which Jeroboam reigned were two and twenty years: and he slept with his fathers, and Nadab his son reigned in his position.
21 Ketika Rehabeam, anak Salomo, menjadi raja Yehuda, ia berumur empat puluh satu tahun. Ia memerintah tujuh belas tahun lamanya di Yerusalem. Dari seluruh Israel kota itu telah dikhususkan TUHAN sebagai tempat ibadat kepada-Nya. Ibu Rehabeam ialah Naama dari bangsa Amon.
And Rehoboam the son of Solomon reigned in Judah. Rehoboam was forty and one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city which the LORD did choose out of all the tribes of Israel, to put his name there. And his mother's name was Naamah an Ammonitess.
22 Bangsa Yehuda melakukan yang jahat pada pemandangan TUHAN. Perbuatan mereka lebih membangkitkan kemarahan TUHAN daripada segala perbuatan leluhur mereka.
And Judah did evil in the sight of the LORD, and they provoked him to jealousy with their sins which they had committed, above all that their fathers had done.
23 Di atas bukit-bukit dan di bawah pohon-pohon besar, mereka membangun tempat-tempat penyembahan berhala, dan mendirikan tugu-tugu serta patung-patung dewi Asyera untuk disembah.
For they also built them high places, and images, and groves, on every high hill, and under every green tree.
24 Di tempat-tempat itu mereka mengadakan pelacuran sebagai penyembahan kepada dewa. Bahkan laki-laki pun bertugas sebagai pelacur. Orang Yehuda melakukan semua perbuatan keji yang dilakukan oleh bangsa-bangsa yang telah diusir TUHAN pada waktu orang Israel memasuki negeri itu.
And there were also sodomites in the land: and they did according to all the abominations of the nations which the LORD cast out before the children of Israel.
25 Pada tahun kelima pemerintahan Rehabeam, Sisak, raja Mesir menyerang Yerusalem.
And it came to pass in the fifth year of king Rehoboam, that Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem:
26 Ia merampas semua barang berharga yang terdapat di Rumah TUHAN dan di istana raja, juga perisai-perisai emas yang dibuat oleh Salomo.
And he took away the treasures of the house of the LORD, and the treasures of the king's house; he even took away all: and he took away all the shields of gold which Solomon had made.
27 Maka sebagai gantinya Raja Rehabeam membuat perisai-perisai perunggu, dan mempercayakannya kepada para perwira yang mengawal pintu gerbang istana raja.
And king Rehoboam made in their position brazen shields, and committed them unto the hands of the chief of the guard, which kept the door of the king's house.
28 Setiap kali raja ke Rumah TUHAN, para pengawal membawa perisai-perisai itu, kemudian mengembalikannya ke kamar jaga.
And it was so, when the king went into the house of the LORD, that the guard bare them, and brought them back into the guard chamber.
29 Kisah lainnya mengenai Raja Rehabeam sudah dicatat dalam buku Sejarah Raja-raja Yehuda.
Now the rest of the acts of Rehoboam, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
30 Semasa pemerintahan Rehabeam, selalu ada perang antara Rehabeam dan Yerobeam.
And there was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all their days.
31 Kemudian Rehabeam meninggal dan dikubur di makam raja-raja di Kota Daud. Abiam, putranya, menggantikan dia sebagai raja.
And Rehoboam slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David. And his mother's name was Naamah an Ammonitess. And Abijam his son reigned in his position.
