2 Kroniku 10
1 Hagi maka Israeli vahe'mo'za Rehoboamuna kini azeri oti'nageno kini mani'niegu Sekemu kumate omeri atru hu'nazarega, Rahoboamu'a anantega vu'ne.
All the people of Israel went to Shechem [city] in order to appoint Rehoboam to be their king. So Rehoboam also went there.
2 Hagi Nebati nemofo Jeroboamu'ma Solomoninku koro freno Isipima umani'neregatira Rehoboamuma kinima azeri oti'za nehaza agenkema nentahino'a, Isipitira atreno ete e'ne.
Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, had fled to Egypt [to escape] from King Solomon. But when he heard [about the people wanting to appoint Rehoboam to be their king], he returned [to Israel] from Egypt
3 Hagi vahe huzmantege'za Jeroboamuna ome avre'za azage'za, agrane Israeli vahe'mo'za Rehoboamunte ehanati'za amanage eme hu'naze,
So the [leaders of the northern tribes] summoned him, and he went with them [to talk] to Rehoboam. They said to Rehoboam,
4 korapara negafa'a karenamare zafama bulimakao anankempima nentazankna huno ra eri'za tamigeta tusi amuho huta eri'zana eri'none. E'ina hu'negu menina negafa'ma tami'nea kna eri'zana ontaminka, eri'zama erioza'ma hunka tami'nanketama erisuta kagri kagorga mani'neta eri'zanka'a erigantegahune.
“Your father [Solomon] forced us to work very hard for him. If you do not force us to work that hard, and if you charge us less taxes than we were paying to him, we will serve you [faithfully].”
5 Anage hazageno Rehoboamu'a amanage huno kenona hu'ne, vuta 3'a zagegna umaniteta ete eho, hige'za ana vahetmimo'za vu'za e'za hu'naze.
He replied, “Come back three days from now [and I will give you my answer].” So those leaders [and Jeroboam] left.
6 Ana'ma hazageno'a, Rehoboamu'a ko'ma nefa Solomoni'enema mani'nezama antahintahima ami'naza ranra vahetami zamantahigeno amanage hu'ne, na'ane hu'na ama vahetmina kenona huzmantegahufi antahintahia namiho?
Then King Rehoboam consulted his older men who had advised his father Solomon while he was still alive. He asked them, “What shall I say to answer these men?”
7 Anage hige'za amanage hu'za asmi'naze, kagrama knare'zama hunezmantenkama, zamazeri muse hunka knare nanekema zamasamisanke'za, zamagra kagri eri'za vahe manivava hu'za vugahaze.
They replied, “If you will be kind to these people and do things that will please them, and if you say kind things to them when you answer them, they will always serve you.”
8 Hianagi Rehoboamu'a ranra vahetmimo'zama ami'naza antahintahia eri netreno, kasefa vahetmima agranema magoka nenama hu'naza vahe'ma agri eri'zama e'neriza vahetami zamantahigeno,
But he ignored what the older men advised him to do. Instead, he consulted the younger men who had grown up with him, who were now his advisors.
9 amanage hu'ne, negafa'ma karenamare zafama bulimakao anankempima nentazankna huno knanentake eri'zama tami'neana eri ozahuranto hu'zama ama vahe'mo'zama nantahige'nazana, na'ane hu'na kenona huzmantegahufi antahintahia namiho?
He said to them, “How should I answer the men who are asking me to reduce the [work and taxes] that my father required from them?”
10 Hagi anante kasefa vahetamima agranema magokama nenama hu'naza vahe'mo'za amanage hu'za asami'naze, negafa'ma knanentake eri'zama tami'nea eri'zana eri o'za hunka osi'a eri'za tamio, hu'zama haza vahetamina, katre nazamo'a nenfa afafa agatere'ne hunka zamasamio.
The young men who had grown up with him replied, “[Those men] have said that your father forced them to work very hard for him, so they want you to reduce the [work and taxes] that your father required from them. But this is what you should tell them: ‘My little finger is thicker than my father’s waist.
11 Hagi nenfa'a amuho eri'za tami'neanki'na anante antegofetu hu'na mago'ene rama'a knaza tamigahue. Nenfa'a kanonu sefura tami'neanki'na, nagrama sefu'ma tami'nua zamo'a segintavemo tamampriankna hugahie hunka zamasamio.
What I mean is that my father required you to [work hard and pay high taxes]. But I will make those loads heavier. [It was as though] my father whipped you, but I will whip you with whips that have pieces of metal in them.’”
12 Hagi ana'ma hutazageno'a kini ne'mo'a huno, 3'a knama umaniteta ehoma hu'nea knare Jeroboamu'ene maka vahe'mo'za kini ne' Rehoboamuntega ete e'naze.
Three days later, Jeroboam and all the leaders came to King Rehoboam again, which is what he had told them to do.
13 Hagi kini ne'mo'a ranra vahetmimofo kea eri netreno, hanavegefinti kenona huzmante'ne.
The king ignored the advice of the older men and spoke harshly to the Israeli leaders.
14 Hagi kini ne' Rehoboamu'a ana kasefa vahetmima agri'enema magokama rama hu'naza vahetmimo'zama asamiza kante anteno amanage hu'ne, nenfa'a kna eri'za tami'ne. Hianagi nagra mago'ane ante agofetu hu'na eri'zana tamigahue. Nenfa'a sefu kanonteti tamaheno tamazeri fatgo hu'neanagi, nagrama tami'nua sefu'mo'a segintavemo tamampriankna hugahie.
[He told them what the younger men had advised.] He said, “My father put heavy burdens [of work and taxes] on you, but I will put heavier burdens on you. [It was as though] he beat you with whips, but I will beat you with whips that have pieces of metal in them!”
15 E'inage nehuno vahetmimo'zama hazankea kini ne'mo'a ontahi'ne. Na'ankure Anumzamo'a Silo kumate kasnampa ne' Ahijama asamigeno, Nebati nemofo Jeroboamuma asami'nea kemo nena rgare'ne.
So the king did not pay any attention to the Israeli leaders. But this happened in order that what Yahweh had told the prophet Ahijah about Jeroboam would happen.
16 Hagi Israeli vahe'mo'za kazama kini ne'mo'ma kezmima ontahige'za kini nera amanage hu'za kenona hunte'naze, Deviti nagapintira tagra mago'zana e'origahune! Jesi nagapintira tagra mago'zana e'origahune. E'ina hu'negu Deviti nagamota tamagra'a ome kegava hiho, nehu'za Israeli vahe'mo'za atre'za nozmirega vu'za e'za hu'naze.
When the Israeli leaders realized that the king did not pay any attention to what they said, they shouted, “We do not want anything to do with this descendant of King David! We will not pay attention to what this grandson of Jesse says! You people of Israel, let’s go home! As for this descendant of David, he can rule his own kingdom!” So the Israeli leaders returned to their homes.
17 Hianagi mago'a Israeli vahe'ma Juda rankumatamimpima mani'naza vahete, Rehoboamu'a kini mani'neno kegava huzmante'ne.
And [after that, the only Israeli] people whom Rehoboam ruled over were those who lived in the territory of [the tribes of] Judah [and Benjamin].
18 Hagi kini ne' Rehoboamu'a kazokzo eri'za vahete'ma kegava nehia ne' Hadoramuna eri'za vahe ome kegava huo huno huntegeno zamefi vu'ne. Hianagi Israeli vahe'mo'za havenknonu ahe frizageno fri'ne. Hagi anama hazageno'a kini ne' Rehoboamu'a ame huno karisi'afi takaureno freno Jerusalemi vu'ne.
Then King Rehoboam went with Adoniram [to talk to the Israeli people]. Adoniram was the man who supervised [all the men who were] forced to work [for Rehoboam]. But the Israeli people killed him by throwing stones at him. When that happened, King Rehoboam quickly got in his chariot and escaped to Jerusalem.
19 E'ina hu'negu Israeli vahe'mo'za, Deviti nagamokizmi kvafina omani'za hara rezmanteme e'za ama knarera ehanati'naze.
Ever since that time, [the people of the northern tribes of] Israel have been rebelling against the descendants of [King] David.
