1 Lekobowaamu n’alaga e Sekemu, Abayisirayiri bonna gye baali bakuŋŋaanidde okumufuula kabaka.
Rehoboam kɔɔ Sekem, ɛfiri sɛ, na Israelfoɔ nyinaa akɔ hɔ sɛ wɔrekɔsi no ɔhene.
2 Yerobowaamu mutabani wa Nebati bwe yawulira ekyo, ng’ali e Misiri, gye yali yeewaŋŋangusirizza, n’akomawo.
Ɛberɛ a Nebat babarima Yeroboam tee sɛ Salomo awuo no, ɔfiri Misraim baeɛ, ɛfiri sɛ ɔdwane firii ɔhene Salomo nsam kɔtenaa Misraim.
3 Abantu ne batumira Yerobowaamu, ye n’ekibiina kyonna ekya Isirayiri ne bagenda ewa Lekobowaamu, ne bamugamba nti,
Enti, Israel mpanimfoɔ soma ma wɔkɔfaa Yeroboam, na Israel nnipadɔm no nyinaa kɔɔ Rehoboam nkyɛn, ne no kɔkasaeɛ sɛ,
4 “Kitaawo yatuteekako ekikoligo ekizito, naye kaakano wewula ku mirimu emizibu ne ku kikoligo ekizito kye yatuteekako, naffe tunaakuweereza.”
“Wʼagya hyɛɛ yɛn ma yɛyɛɛ adwumaden. Yɛsrɛ wo, te saa adwumaden ne apeatoɔ adesoa duruduru a wʼagya de soaa yɛn no so. Woyɛ saa a, yɛbɛsom wo nokorɛ mu.”
5 Lekobowaamu n’abaddamu nti, “Mumpe ebbanga lya nnaku ssatu, n’oluvannyuma nnaabaddamu.” Abantu ne beetambulira.
Rehoboam buaa sɛ, “Momma me nnansa na menwene mo asɛm yi ho. Ɛno akyi, mommra mmɛgye me mmuaeɛ.” Enti, nnipa no sane kɔeɛ.
6 Awo kabaka Lekobowaamu n’agenda ne yeebuuza ku bakadde abaaweerezanga kitaawe Sulemaani, mu biseera bwe yali ng’akyali mulamu. N’ababuuza nti, “Mumpa magezi ki, ku nsonga abantu bano gye bansabye?”
Na ɔhene Rehoboam ne ne mpanimfoɔ a wɔsom nʼagya Salomo ɛberɛ a ɔte ase no tuu asɛm no ho agyina. Ɔbisaa mpanimfoɔ no sɛ, “Moka asɛm no ho ɛdeɛn? Mmuaeɛ bɛn na memfa mma saa nnipa yi?”
7 Ne bamuddamu nti, “Leero bw’onoobeera omuwulize eri abantu bano ne weetoowaza, n’obaweereza, era n’obaddamu n’eggonjebwa, kale banaabeeranga baweereza bo.”
Wɔbuaa no sɛ, “Sɛ ɛnnɛ yi, wopɛ sɛ woyɛ ɔsomfoɔ ma saa nnipa yi, na woma wɔn mmuaeɛ pa a, ɛnneɛ, daa wɔbɛsom wo nokorɛ mu.”
8 Naye Lekobowaamu n’atawuliriza magezi abakadde ge baamuwa, n’agenda ne yeebuuza ku bavubuka be yali akuze nabo, era nga be bamuweereza.
Nanso Rehoboam amfa afotuo a mpanimfoɔ no tuu no no. Mmom, ɔkɔɔ nʼatipɛnfoɔ mmabunu bi a ɔne wɔn sii so a na wɔtu no fo no nkyɛn.
9 N’ababuuza nti, “Mumpa magezi ki okuddamu abantu abasabye okuwewula ku kikoligo kitange kye yabateekako?”
Ɔbisaa wɔn sɛ, “Mo nso mo adwene ne sɛn? Mmuaeɛ bɛn na memfa nkɔma nnipa a wɔpɛ sɛ mete adesoa a mʼagya de soaa wɔn no so?”
10 Abavubuka abaakulira awamu naye ne bamuddamu nti, “Gamba abantu abo abakusabye nti, ‘Okendeeze ku kikoligo kitaawo kye yabateekako nti, “Engalo yange eya nasswi esinga ekiwato kya kitange obunene.
Nʼatipɛnfoɔ mmabunu buaa no sɛ, “Ka kyerɛ wɔn a wɔnwiinwii no sɛ, ‘Me kɔkorɔbɛto mu pi sene mʼagya asene; sɛ modwene sɛ ɔhyɛɛ mo so dodo a, montwɛn na monhwɛ sɛdeɛ mɛyɛ.’
11 Kitange yabateekako ekikoligo ekizito, naye nze ndyongera ku kikoligo kyammwe. Kitange yabakangavvulanga na nkoba, naye nze nnaabakangavvulanga n’enjaba ez’obusagwa.”’”
Aane, mʼagya yɛɛ den wɔ mo so, na mɛyɛ aboro saa. Mʼagya kaa mo mpire a, me deɛ mede anyanyankyerɛ bɛkeka mo.”
12 Oluvannyuma lw’ennaku ssatu, Yerobowaamu n’abantu bonna, ne baddayo eri Lekobowaamu, nga bwe yali abagambye okudda oluvannyuma lw’ennaku essatu.
Nnansa akyi, Yeroboam ne nnipa no nyinaa sane baa sɛ wɔrebɛtie Rehoboam mmuaeɛ, sɛdeɛ ɔkaeɛ no.
13 Awo kabaka n’addamu abantu n’ebboggo, n’agaana amagezi abakadde ge baamuwa,
Ɔhene no buaa nnipa no abufuo so. Wamfa mpanimfoɔ no afotuo no;
14 n’agoberera ag’abavubuka, n’ayogera nti, “Kitange yafuula ekikoligo kyammwe okuba ekizito, naye nze nnaayongera ku kikoligo kyammwe. Kitange yabakangavvulanga na nkoba, naye nno nze nnaabakangavvula na njaba ez’obusagwa.”
ɔfaa mmabunu no afotuo. Ɔka kyerɛɛ nnipa no sɛ, “Mʼagya yɛɛ den wɔ mo so, na mɛyɛ aboro saa. Mʼagya hwee mo mpire na me deɛ mede anyanyankyerɛ bɛkeka mo.”
15 Kabaka n’atawuliriza bantu. Bino byonna byabaawo Mukama atuukirize ekigambo kye yayogera eri Yerobowaamu mutabani wa Nebati ng’ayita mu Akiya Omusiiro.
Enti, ɔhene no antie nnipa no adesrɛ. Sɛdeɛ nneɛma mu daneeɛ no nyinaa firi Awurade, ɛfiri sɛ, ɛmaa asɛm a Awurade nam Ahiya a ɔfiri Silo so ka kyerɛɛ Nebat babarima Yeroboam no baa mu.
16 Awo Isirayiri yenna bwe baalaba nga kabaka agaanye okubawuliriza, ne bamuddamu nti, “Mugabo ki gwe tulina mu Dawudi, oba kitundu ki kye tulina mu mutabani wa Yese? Mudde mu weema zammwe ayi Isirayiri! Weerabirire ggwe ennyumba ya Dawudi.” Awo Abayisirayiri ne beddirayo ewaabwe.
Ɛberɛ a Israel nyinaa hunuu sɛ ɔhene anyɛ wɔn abisadeɛ amma wɔn no, wɔteateaam sɛ, “Yɛne Dawid nni hwee yɛ! Yɛne Yisai babarima no nni hwee yɛ! Israel, momma yɛnkɔ yɛn nkyi! Dawid, hwɛ wʼankasa wo fie so!” Enti, Israelfoɔ no sane kɔɔ wɔn fie.
17 Naye abaana ba Isirayiri abaabeeranga mu bibuga bya Yuda, ne bafugibwa Lekobowaamu.
Na Rehoboam toaa so dii Israelfoɔ a wɔtenaa Yuda nkuro so no nyinaa so ɔhene.
18 Lekobowaamu yalagira Adolaamu eyakuliranga emirimu egy’obuwaze okugenda eri Abayisirayiri, okubalagira eby’okukola, naye ne bamukuba amayinja ne bamutta. Naye ye Kabaka Lekobowaamu n’awona, n’alinnya eggaali lye n’addukira e Yerusaalemi.
Na ɔhene Rehoboam somaa Adoram a na ɔtua adwumayɛfoɔ ano no sɛ ɔnkɔhwɛ, na asomdwoeɛ mmra, nanso Israel nyinaa sii no aboɔ, kumm no. Ɛberɛ a ɔhene Rehoboam tee saa asɛm yi no, ntɛm ara, ɔhuri tenaa ne teaseɛnam mu, dwane kɔɔ Yerusalem.
19 Bw’atyo Isirayiri n’ajeemera ennyumba ya Dawudi n’okutuusa leero.
Israel mmusuakuo a wɔwɔ atifi fam no ampene sɛ Dawid aseni bɛdi wɔn so, de bɛsi ɛnnɛ.
20 Abayisirayiri bonna bwe baawulira nti Yerobowaamu akomyewo, ne bamutumira ajje eri ekibiina, ne bamutikkira okuba kabaka wa Isirayiri yonna. Ekika kya Yuda kyokka kye kyasigala nga kigoberera ennyumba ya Dawudi.
Ɛberɛ a Israelfoɔ tee sɛ Yeroboam firi Misraim asane aba no, wɔyɛɛ nhyiamu, sii no ɔhene wɔ Israel nyinaa so. Enti, Yuda abusuakuo no nko ara na wɔkaeɛ, somm Dawid fie nokorɛ mu.
21 Awo Lekobowaamu bwe yatuuka mu Yerusaalemi n’akuŋŋaanya ennyumba ya Yuda yonna, n’ekika kya Benyamini, abasajja abalwanyi emitwalo kkumi na munaana, okulwanagana n’ennyumba ya Isirayiri, asobole okweddiza obwakabaka.
Ɛberɛ a Rehoboam duruu Yerusalem no, ɔboaboaa Yuda ne Benyamin akodɔm ano. Ɔyii akofoɔ mpem ɔha ne aduɔwɔtwe, sɛ wɔrekɔko atia Israel akodɔm, na wɔafa ahemman no adi so.
22 Naye ekigambo kya Katonda ne kijjira Semaaya omusajja wa Katonda nti,
Nanso, Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ Semaia, Onyankopɔn onipa no sɛ,
23 “Gamba Lekobowaamu mutabani wa Sulemaani kabaka wa Yuda, n’ennyumba ya Yuda yonna n’eya Benyamini, era n’abantu bonna nti,
“Ka kyerɛ Salomo babarima Rehoboam, Yudahene ne nnipa a wɔfiri Yuda ne Benyamin sɛ,
24 ‘Bw’ati bw’ayogera Mukama nti, Temwambuka kulwana ne baganda bammwe, Abayisirayiri. Buli omu ku mmwe addeyo eka kubanga kino nze nkisazeewo.’” Awo ne bagondera ekigambo kya Mukama, ne baddayo ewaabwe, nga Mukama bwe yalagira.
‘Sɛdeɛ Awurade seɛ nie, Mo ne mo nuanom Israelfoɔ nntwa mo ho nko. Monsane nkɔ mo akyi, na deɛ asi no nyinaa firi me!’” Enti, wɔtiee Awurade asɛm no, sane kɔɔ wɔn fie sɛdeɛ Awurade hyɛeɛ no.
25 Awo Yerobowaamu n’azimba Sekemu mu Efulayimu ensi ey’ensozi, era n’abeera eyo. Eyo gye yava n’agenda n’azimba Penieri.
Yeroboam kyekyeree Sekem kuro wɔ Efraim bepɔ asase so, ma ɛbɛyɛɛ ne kuropɔn. Akyire yi, ɔkɔkyekyeree kuro Penuel.
26 Yerobowaamu ne yeerowooza munda ye nti, “Obwakabaka sikulwa nga budda mu nnyumba ya Dawudi!
Yeroboam dwenee ho dinn, see nʼakomam sɛ, “Sɛ manhwɛ yie a, ahemman no bɛsane akɔ Dawid fiefoɔ adedifoɔ nsam.
27 Abantu bano bwe banayambukanga okuwaayo ebiweebwayo mu yeekaalu ya Mukama mu Yerusaalemi, olunaku olumu emitima gyabwe giyinza okukyukira mukama waabwe, Lekobowaamu, kabaka wa Yuda. Balinzita ne badda gy’ali.”
Na sɛ wɔkɔ Yerusalem, kɔbɔ afɔdeɛ wɔ Awurade Asɔredan mu nso a, wɔbɛsom Yudahene Rehoboam. Ɛba saa a, wɔbɛkum me, de ɔno mmom asi wɔn so ɔhene.”
28 Awo Kabaka Yerobowaamu n’aweebwa amagezi okukola ennyana bbiri eza zaabu. N’agamba abantu nti, “Kijja kubazitoowerera nnyo okwambukanga e Yerusaalemi. Baabano bakatonda bammwe, Ayi Isirayiri, abaabaggya mu Misiri.”
Enti, ɔtiee deɛ nʼafotufoɔ ka, na ɔyɛɛ sikakɔkɔɔ anantwie mma mmienu. Ɔka kyerɛɛ nnipa no sɛ, “Ɛyɛ ɔbrɛ bebree sɛ mobɛforo akɔ Yerusalem akɔsom. Ɛno enti, Israel, yeinom ne anyame a wɔyii mo firii Misraim!”
29 Emu n’agiteeka mu Beseri n’endala mu Ddaani.
Ɔde nantwie mma ahoni yi sisii Israel anafoɔ ne atifi, wɔ Bet-El ne Dan.
30 Ekintu ekyo ne kiba kibi nnyo, kubanga abantu baatuuka n’okugenda e Ddaani okusinza ekifaananyi ky’ennyana ekyali kiteekeddwa eyo.
Yei bɛyɛɛ bɔne kɛseɛ, ɛfiri sɛ, nnipa no somm ahoni no, a na mpo wɔtwa ɛkwan kɔ Dan.
31 Yerobowaamu n’azimba amasabo mu bifo ebigulumivu n’alonda bakabona ng’abaggya mu bantu abaabulijjo, newaakubadde nga tebaali ba kika kya Leevi.
Yeroboam sisii abosonnan wɔ nkokoɔ so, na ɔpaa asɔfoɔ firii nnipa no mu a na wɔmfiri Lewi asɔfoɔ abusua mu.
32 N’akola embaga ku lunaku olw’ekkumi n’ettaano mu mwezi ogw’omunaana, okufaanana n’embaga ebeerawo mu Yuda, era n’awaayo ebyokebwa ku kyoto. Kino yakikola mu Beseri ng’awaayo ssaddaaka eri ennyana ze yakola. N’assa bakabona mu bifo ebigulumivu bye yali akoze e Beseri.
Yeroboam hyehyɛɛ nyamesom dapɔnna wɔ Bet-El a na wɔdi saa nna no Bul bosome (bɛyɛ Ahinime) mu a na ɛte sɛ Yuda Dwanekɔbea Afahyɛ no ara. Bet-El hɔ na ɔno ankasa bɔɔ afɔdeɛ maa anantwie mma ahoni a wayɛ no. Na Bet-El hɔ ara nso, na ɔpaa asɔfoɔ, maa abosomfie a ɔsisiiɛ no.
33 Ku lunaku olw’ekkumi n’ettaano mu mwezi ogw’omunaana gwe yeerondera, n’awaayo ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa ku kyoto kye yazimba e Beseri. Era n’assaawo embaga Abayisirayiri gye baakuumanga, n’ayambukanga ne ku kyoto okuwaayo ebyokebwa.
Na ɔno ankasa yii da bi too hɔ, Bul bosome (bɛyɛ Ɔsannaa) mfimfini mu hɔ, na Yeroboam kɔbɔɔ afɔdeɛ wɔ afɔrebukyia so wɔ Bet-El. Ɔhyɛɛ anyamesom afahyɛ ase maa Israel, na ɔforo kɔɔ afɔrebukyia no so kɔhyee aduhwam.
