1 Hagi Rehoboamu'ma Jerusalemi kumate'ma ne-eno'a, Israeli vahe'ma ha'ma huzmanteno ana maka Israeli mopama erino kinima mani'nakura, ha'ma hu antahi'zama eri'naza vahera 180tauseni'a vahetami Juda nagapinte'ene Benzameni nagapintira ke hutru huno, Israeli vahera agrarega zamavarenteno kegava huzmantenaku hu'ne.

URehobhowamu esefikile eJerusalema wabuthanisa indlu yakoJuda leyakoBhenjamini, abakhethiweyo abazinkulungwane ezilikhulu lamatshumi ayisificaminwembili, abalwa impi, ukuze balwe loIsrayeli ukubuyisela umbuso kuRehobhowamu.

2 Hianagi Ra Anumzamo'a kasnampa ne' Semaiana anage huno asami'ne,

Kodwa ilizwi leNkosi lafika kuShemaya umuntu kaNkulunkulu lisithi:

3 Kagra vunka, Juda kini ne' Solomoni nemofo Rehoboamune, maka Israeli vahetamima Judama nemaniza vahetamine, Benzameni naga'enena,

Khuluma kuRehobhowamu indodana kaSolomoni, inkosi yakoJuda, lakuIsrayeli wonke koJuda lakoBhenjamini, uthi:

4 Ra Anumzamo'a amanage hie hunka ome zamasamio, tamagra marerita tamafuhe'zanena hara ome osugahazanki, makamota nontamirega vuta eta hiho. Na'ankure Nagra e'ina zana fore hugahie hu'na hu'noazamo fore nehie. Anage hige'za Ra Anumzamofonke antahi'za Jeroboamuna hara ome huonte atre'za vu'za e'za hu'naze.

Itsho njalo iNkosi: Kaliyikwenyuka njalo lingalwi labafowenu. Buyelani ngulowo endlini yakhe, ngoba linto yenziwe yimi. Basebelilalela ilizwi leNkosi, baphenduka ekuyenimelana loJerobhowamu.

5 Hagi Rehoboamu'a Jerusalemi kumate mani'neno ha'ma hanigeno fraki rankumatamima Juda mopafi me'neana ete eri hanavetino kintetere hu'ne.

URehobhowamu wasehlala eJerusalema, wakha imizi eyizinqaba koJuda.

6 Hagi ana rankumatamina Betlehemu kumaki, Etam kumaki, Tekoa kumaki,

Wasesakha iBhethelehema leEtamu leThekhowa

7 Bet-zuri kumaki, Soko kumaki, Adulamu kumaki,

leBeti-Zuri leSoko leAdulamu

8 Gati kumaki, Maresa kumaki, Zifi kumaki,

leGathi leMaresha leZifi

9 Adoraimi kumaki, Lakisi kumaki, Azeka kumaki,

leAdorayimi leLakishi leAzeka

10 Zora kumaki, Aijaloni kumaki Hebroni kuma'enene. Hagi ama ana mika rankumatamina Judane, Benzameni mopafi me'ne.

leZora leAjaloni leHebroni, eyayikoJuda lakoBhenjamini, imizi ebiyelweyo.

11 Hagi hankavenentake vihuma hunte kumatamimpina sondia vahete kva vahetami zamavarenenteno, ne'zane olivi masaventamine, waini tinena anampina ante'ne.

Waseqinisa izinqaba, wabeka abalawulimabutho kizo, leziphala zokudla lamafutha lewayini.

12 Hagi anazanke huno ana ranra kumatamimpina hankoramine, karugru keveramine, refko huno antetere nehuno, ana kuma keginaramina eri hanavetino tro hu'ne. E'ina huno Juda naga'ene Benzameni naga'enena kegava hu'ne.

Lakuwo wonke umuzi lomuzi wabeka izihlangu ezinkulu lemikhonto, wayiqinisa kakhulukazi. Njalo uJuda loBhenjamini babengabakhe.

13 Hagi Israeli mopafima maka noti kazigama me'nea kumatamimpi nemani'za maka pristi vahe'mo'zane, Livae vahe'mo'za Rehoboamu kazigage ante'naze.

Labapristi lamaLevi ababekoIsrayeli wonke bazimisa kuye bevela kuyo yonke imingcele yabo.

14 Hagi Livae vahe'mo'zane kumazamine, sipisipi afu'ene bulimakao afu'enema kegavama nehaza kuma'enena atre'za, Juda kumate'ene Jerusalemi kumate e'naze. Na'ankure Jeroboamu'ene ne' mofavre'amoza Ra Anumzamofo pristi vahera omanigahaze hu'za huzmante'nazagu arara hu'naze.

Ngoba amaLevi atshiya amadlelo awo lemfuyo yabo, aya koJuda leJerusalema, ngoba uJerobhowamu lamadodana akhe bawala ekusebenzeleni iNkosi njengabapristi;

15 Hagi agra'a pristi vahetami zamazeri otige'za mono'ma nehaza agona kumatamimpina meme afu'mofone bulimakao anentamofo amema'a tro hunte'nege'za monora hunte'naze.

wasezibekela abapristi bendawo eziphakemeyo, labamadimoni, labamathole ayewenzile.

16 Hagi maka Israeli vahe'mo'za naga nofipinti'ma Ra Anumzana Israeli vahe Anumzamofona hanaveti'za mono'ma huntenaku'ma nehaza vahe'mo'zane, pristi vahetamine Livae nagara zamavariri'za Ra Anumzana zamafahe'i Anumzante kresramna vunaku Jerusalemi vu'naze.

Lemva kwawo kweza eJerusalema labo ababenikele inhliziyo yabo ukuyidinga iNkosi, uNkulunkulu kaIsrayeli, bevela kuzo zonke izizwe zakoIsrayeli, ukuyahlabela iNkosi, uNkulunkulu waboyise.

17 Hagi 3'a kafufina Juda vahe'ene umani'neza Solomoni nemofo Rehoboamuna aza hu'za Juda kumara eri hanaveti'naze. Na'ankure ana 3'a kafufina zamagra Deviti'ene, Solomonikema kinima manineke knare zanavu'zanava hu'na'a zanavu'zanava avariri'za, Rehoboamuna aza hu'naze.

Ngokunjalo bawuqinisa umbuso wakoJuda, benza uRehobhowamu indodana kaSolomoni waba lamandla iminyaka emithathu; ngoba bahamba endleleni kaDavida loSolomoni iminyaka emithathu.

18 Hagi Rehoboamu'a, Deviti nemofo Jerimoti mofa Mahalati ara eri'ne. Hagi Mahalati nerera agi'a Abihailikino agra Jesi nemofo Eliapu mofa mani'ne.

URehobhowamu wasezithathela uMahalathi indodakazi kaJerimothi indodana kaDavida waba ngumkakhe, loAbihayili indodakazi kaEliyabi indodana kaJese,

19 Hagi Mahalati'a Rehoboamunte mani'neno, Jeusima, Semariama Zahamuma huno kasezmante'ne.

owamzalela amadodana, oJewushi loShemariya loZahamu.

20 Henka ara Jehoboamu'a Absalomu mofa Ma'aka ara eri'ne. Hagi Rehoboamunteti'ma Ma'akama kasezmante'nea mofavreramina Abijama, Ataima, Zizama, Selomitima huno kasezmante'ne.

Langemva kwakhe wathatha uMahaka indodakazi kaAbisalomu, owamzalela oAbhiya loAthayi loZiza loShelomithi.

21 Hagi Rehoboamu'a maka ane'aramimpinti'ene henka a'nema erinefintira zamagatereno Absalomu mofa Ma'akana rama'azampi avesinte'ne. Hagi ana maka 18ni'a ese a'negi henka a'nea 60'a zamante'ne. Hagi ana a'nemo'za ne' mofavreramina 28'a kasezmante'za 60'a mofane kasezamante'naze.

URehobhowamu wasemthanda uMahaka indodakazi kaAbisalomu okwedlula bonke omkakhe labafazi bakhe abancinyane - ngoba wathatha abafazi abalitshumi lesificaminwembili, labafazi abancinyane abangamatshumi ayisithupha, wazala amadodana angamatshumi amabili lesificaminwembili lamadodakazi angamatshumi ayisithupha.

22 E'ina hu'negu Rehoboamu'a Ma'aka nemofo Abija kva azeri otigeno, zamafuhe'ina kegava huzmante'ne. E'ina hu'neno henka kini azeri otisigu anara hu'ne.

URehobhowamu wasebeka uAbhiya indodana kaMahaka waba yinhloko ukubusa phakathi kwabafowabo, ngoba kwakuyikumenza inkosi.

23 Rehoboamu'a knare antahintahi erino mago'a ne' mofavre naga'a eri'zana refko huno nezamino, mago'a ne'mofavre naga'a huzmantege'za Juda naga mopafine, Benzameni naga mopafi'ma me'nea ranra kumatamima eri hankavematia kumatamina kegava hutere hu'naze. Ana nehuno rama'a feno nezmino, rama'a a'ne hagezami'ne.

Wenza ngokuhlakanipha, wasabalalisa kuwo wonke amadodana akhe emazweni wonke akoJuda lakoBhenjamini, kuwo wonke umuzi obiyelweyo, wawanika ukudla ngobunengi, wadinga inengi labafazi.
