1 Kva 12

1 Hagi Rehoboamu'a Sekemi kumate vu'ne, na'ankure maka Israeli vahe'mo'za agrira kini azeri oti'naku ana kumate omeri tru hu'nazageno'e.

Then Rehoboam went to Shechem, for all Israel had gone there to make him king.

2 Hagi Nebati nemofo Jeroboamu'ma ana nanekema nentahino'a, Solomoninku'ma koro'ma huno Isipima umani'neregatira atreno e'ne.

When Jeroboam son of Nebat heard about this, he was still in Egypt where he had fled from King Solomon and had been living ever since.

3 Hagi Israeli kva vahe'mo'za Jeroboamuna ke hazageno ege'za, maka Israeli vahe'tamine vu'za Rehoboamuna amanage hu'za ome asami'naze,

So they sent for Jeroboam, and he and the whole assembly of Israel came to Rehoboam and said,

4 negafa'a ra erizanke'za tamigeta amuho huta eri'zana erita e'none. Hagi menina kagra ana knatia eri oza hugeta fru huta eri'zanka'a erigantamneno.

“Your father put a heavy yoke on us. But now you should lighten the burden of your father’s service and the heavy yoke he put on us, and we will serve you.”

5 Anagema hazageno'a, Rehoboamu'a amanage huno kenona hu'ne, vuta eta huta 3'a kna umaniteta ete eho, hige'za vu'za e'za hu'naze.

Rehoboam answered, “Go away for three days and then return to me.” So the people departed.

6 Hagi vu'za ezama hazageno'a, Rehoboamu'a nefa Solomoni tavaonte'ma mani'nezama antahintahima nemiza ranra vahetami zamavare atru huno amanage huno zamantahige'ne, na'ane hu'na ama vahetmina kenona huzmantegahufi antahintahia namiho.

Then King Rehoboam consulted with the elders who had served his father Solomon during his lifetime. “How do you advise me to respond to these people?” he asked.

7 Hige'za amanage hu'za kenona hunte'naze, Kagrama menima ama vahe'tmimofo eri'za vahe'ma mani'naku'ma hanunka knare kema hunezaminka zamagrama kantahige'naza zama hananke'za kagri eri'za vahe mani vava hu'za vugahaze.

They replied, “If you will be a servant to these people and serve them this day, and if you will respond by speaking kind words to them, they will be your servants forever.”

8 Hianagi Rehoboamu'a ana ranra vahetamimofo kea ontahi erinetreno, magokama fore'ma hu'naza vahetmima agri eri'zama e'neriza vahe'mokizmi antahintahi eri'naku,

But Rehoboam rejected the advice of the elders; instead, he consulted the young men who had grown up with him and served him.

9 amanage huno zamantahige'ne, Tamagra antahintahitmia hinke'na antahineno. Na'ane hu'na ama vahetmimo'zama hu'za negafa'ma knanentake eri'zama tamigetama e'neruna eri'zana eri oza huranto hu'zama haza vahe'tmina kenona huzmantegahufi antahintahia namiho, huno zamantahigege'za,

He asked them, “What message do you advise that we send back to these people who have spoken to me, saying, ‘Lighten the yoke your father put on us’?”

10 agri'enema magoka zomare'naza vahe'mo'za amanage hu'za kenona hu'naze, Amanage hunka ana vahe'tmina zamasamio, katre nazamo'a nenfa amora agatere'ne.

The young men who had grown up with him replied, “This is how you should answer these people who said to you, ‘Your father made our yoke heavy, but you should make it lighter.’ This is what you should tell them: ‘My little finger is thicker than my father’s waist!

11 Hagi nenfa'a tamage huno knanentake eri'za tami'neanagi, anante antegofetu hu'na mago'ane knanentake eri'zana tamigahue. Hagi nenfa'a sefu knonu kema ontahizageno'a tamazeri fatgo hu'neanagi, nagra segintave sefu tamigahue, hunka zamasamio hu'za antahintahia ami'naze.

Whereas my father burdened you with a heavy yoke, I will add to your yoke. Whereas my father scourged you with whips, I will scourge you with scorpions.’”

12 Hagi kini ne'mo'ma hu'nea kante ante'za 3'a knama evutege'za, Jeroboamu'ene maka Israeli vahetaminena Rehoboamunte e'naze.

After three days, Jeroboam and all the people returned to Rehoboam, since the king had said, “Come back to me on the third day.”

13 Hianagi kini ne'mo'a ranra vahe'mo'zama amiza antahintahia eri netreno, ana vahetamina knanentake ke hunezamanteno,

And the king answered the people harshly. He rejected the advice of the elders

14 kasefa vahe'mo'zama amiza antahintahi avaririno amanage hu'ne. Nenfa'a kna eriza tamami'neanagi, nagra anante antegofetu hu'na mago'ane knanentake eri'za tamigahue. Hagi nenfa'a sefu knonu kema ontahizageno'a tamazeri fatgo hu'neanagi, nagra segintave sefu tamigahue.

and spoke to them as the young men had advised, saying, “Whereas my father made your yoke heavy, I will add to your yoke. Whereas my father scourged you with whips, I will scourge you with scorpions.”

15 Ana nehuno kini ne'mo'a ana vahe'mokizmi nanekea ontahi'ne. Hagi ana'ma hu'neana Ra Anumzamo'ma Silo kumateti ne' Nebati nemofo Ahi'zama asamigeno Jeroboamuma eme asami'nea kemo'a nena rgare'ne.

So the king did not listen to the people, and indeed this turn of events was from the LORD, to fulfill the word He had spoken to Jeroboam son of Nebat through Ahijah the Shilonite.

16 Hagi Israeli vahe'mo'zama kazama kini ne'mo'ma ke'zimima ontahige'za, amanage hu'za kenona hunte'naze. Deviti nagapintira, tagra na'a eri'none? Tagra Jesi nemofo zana erisantia ohare'none. Hagi Israeli vahemota nontamirega vuta eta hiho. Hagi Deviti nagamota tamagra'a kegava hiho, hu'za nehu'za nozimirega vu'za e'za hu'naze.

When all Israel saw that the king had refused to listen to them, they answered the king: “What portion do we have in David, and what inheritance in the son of Jesse? To your tents, O Israel! Look now to your own house, O David!” So the Israelites went home,

17 Hianagi mago'a Israeli vahe'ma Juda kumatamimpima nemaniza vahete Rehoboamu'a kegava huzmante'ne.

but Rehoboam still reigned over the Israelites living in the cities of Judah.

18 Anante Kini ne' Rehoboamu'a eri'za vahete kva ne'a Adoramuna huntegeno vige'za Israeli vahe'mo'za havenknonu ahe fri'naze. Ana'ma hazageno'a Rehoboamu'a ame'ama huno karisi'a erifatgo nehuno, Jerusalemi freno vu'ne.

Then King Rehoboam sent out Adoram, who was in charge of the forced labor, but all Israel stoned him to death. And King Rehoboam mounted his chariot in haste and escaped to Jerusalem.

19 Ana higeno ana knareti'ma eno menima ehanati'neana, Israeli vahe'mo'za Deviti nagapinti'ma fore'ma hu'naza vahe'mo'zama kegavama huzmante'zankura zamavaresra nehu'za ha'rezmante'naze.

So to this day Israel has been in rebellion against the house of David.

20 Hagi Israeli vahe'mo'zama Jeroboamu'ma Isipiti'ma e'nea kema nentahi'za, ke hazageno atru'ma hu'za mani'nazafi ege'za, maka Israeli vahete kini azeri oti'naze. Ana hazageno Deviti naga'mo'za Juda nagake'za kegava hu'naze.

When all Israel heard that Jeroboam had returned, they summoned him to the assembly and made him king over all Israel. Only the tribe of Judah followed the house of David.

21 Hagi Solomoni ne'mofo Rehoboamu'a Jerusalemi kumate'ma enehanatino'a, Israeli vahe'ma ha'ma huzmanteno mopama ete erino kegavama huzmante'nakura 180 tauseni'a sondia vahe Juda nagapinti'ene Benzamini nagapintira zamazeri atru hu'ne.

And when Rehoboam arrived in Jerusalem, he mobilized the whole house of Judah and the tribe of Benjamin—180,000 chosen warriors—to fight against the house of Israel and restore the kingdom to Rehoboam son of Solomon.

22 Hianagi Anumzamo'a amanage huno kasnampa ne' Semaiana asami'ne,

But the word of God came to Shemaiah the man of God:

23 Juda kini ne' Solomoni nemofo Rehoboamune, maka Juda naga'ene, Benzameni naga'ene mago'a vahetaminena amanage hunka zamasamio,

“Tell Rehoboam son of Solomon king of Judah, all the house of Judah and Benjamin, and the rest of the people

24 Ra Anumzamo'a amanage hie, tamagra nagatami'a hara huozmantetma atreta kumitmirega viho. Na'ankure anazama fore'ma nehiana Nagra hugeno fore nehie! Hige'za Ra Anumzamo'ma hiankante ante'za kumazmirega vu'naze.

that this is what the LORD says: ‘You are not to go up and fight against your brothers, the Israelites. Each of you must return home, for this word is from Me.’” So they listened to the word of the LORD and turned back according to the word of the LORD.

25 Ana higeno Jeroboamu'a Efraemi agona kokampi vuno Sekemu ku'mamofo kegina ome azeri hankavetino tro nehuno, ana kumapi mani'ne. Hagi anantetira vuno Penueli kuma kegina azeri hanavetino ki'ne.

Then Jeroboam built Shechem in the hill country of Ephraim and lived there. And from there he went out and built Penuel.

26 Hagi ana'ma nehuno'a, Jeroboamu'a amanage huno agu'afina antahintahia antahi'ne, Nagrama kvahu so'ema osnugeno'a amama kegavama hu'noa vahe'mo'za ete Deviti nagatega vugahaze.

Jeroboam said in his heart, “Now the kingdom might revert to the house of David.

27 Hagi ama vahetamimo'za Jerusalemima Ra Anumzamofo mono nontegama ofama ome kresramnama vunaku'ma nevanageno'a, antahintahi zamimo'a rukrahe hinke'za ra zamimofo Juda kini ne, Rehoboamuntega ome ante'za nagrira nahe fri'za agri agiafi umanigahaze huno agu'afina antahi'ne.

If these people go up to offer sacrifices in the house of the LORD at Jerusalem, their hearts will return to their lord, Rehoboam king of Judah; then they will kill me and return to Rehoboam king of Judah.”

28 Hagi ana antahintahima nentahino'a antahintahima ami vahe'mofo antahintahi erino tare golire bulimaka afu anentatre tro hunenteno, amanage huno vahetmina zamasmi'ne, Hago rama'agna Jerusalemia marerize. Hagi Israeli vahe'ma Isipiti'ma tamavre atiramino'ma e'nea anumzana ama'nagi keho nehuno,

After seeking advice, the king made two golden calves and said to the people, “Going up to Jerusalem is too much for you. Here, O Israel, are your gods, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt.”

29 ana golire bulimakao afu anentatrema tro'ma hu'neana magora Beteli kumate nenteno, magora Dani kumate ante'ne.

One calf he set up in Bethel, and the other in Dan.

30 Ana'ma hiana tusi kumi erifore hu'ne, na'ankure Israeli vahe'tmimo'za afeteragi, Dani kumatera vu'za ana kaza osu havi anumzana monora ome hunte'naze.

And this thing became a sin; the people walked as far as Dan to worship before one of the calves.

31 Hagi Jeroboamu'a agonaramimpina havi anumzamofo mono hunte nontmina kinenteno, Livae nagapintira zamazeri oranotino, ru nagapinti pristi vahe'tmina zamazeri oti'ne.

Jeroboam also built shrines on the high places and appointed from every class of people priests who were not Levites.

32 Hagi ka'ma kokampima seli noma ki'za mani'zama e'naza zanku'ma antahimi'za ne'zama kre'za nene'za mono'ma nehazazamofo avaharo huno Jeroboamu'a 8ti ikamofo 15ni knazupa Beteli kumatera monora nehuno, ne'zana kreno ne'ne. Ana nehuno bulimakao afutamina aheno golire bulimakao anentama troma hunte'nerera Kresramana vunenteno, havi anumzantmimofo mono kuma'ma tro'ma hunteterema hu'nere'ma kegavamahu vahera, pristi vahetami zamazeri oti'ne.

And Jeroboam ordained a feast on the fifteenth day of the eighth month, like the feast that was in Judah, and he offered sacrifices on the altar; he made this offering in Bethel to sacrifice to the calves he had set up, and he installed priests in Bethel for the high places he had set up.

33 Hagi Jeroboamu'ma agra agesafinti'ma eri fore'ma hu'neana 8ti ikamofona 15 knazupa Beteli kumate'ma tro'ma hunte'nea kresramna vu itarera mareri'ne. Hagi ne'zama kreno neneno musema huno mono'ma hu kna erifore nehuno, ana itare marerino ofa hu'ne.

On the fifteenth day of the eighth month, a month of his own choosing, Jeroboam offered sacrifices on the altar he had set up in Bethel. So he ordained a feast for the Israelites, offered sacrifices on the altar, and burned incense.
