1 Ie tafam-poly e Ierosalaime ao t’i Rekoboame le natonto’e ty anjomba’ Iehoda naho i Beniamine, ondaty jinoboñe rai-hetse-tsi-valo-ale, lahindefoñe, hialy am’ Israele, hampimpolia’e amy Rekoboame i fifeheañey.
And Roboam came to Jerusalem, and called together all the house of Juda and of Benjamin, a hundred and fourscore thousand chosen men and warriors, to fight against Israel, and to bring back his kingdom to him.
2 Fe niheo amy Semaià ondatin’ Añahare ty tsara’ Iehovà nanao ty hoe:
And the word of the Lord came to Semeias the man of God, saying:
3 Saontsio amy Rekoboame ana’ i Selomò mpanjaka’ Iehoda naho amy Israele e Iehoda naho e Beniamine ao iaby ty hoe:
Speak to Roboam the son of Solomon the king of Juda, and to all Israel, in Juda and Benjamin:
4 Hoe t’Iehovà: Ko mionjomb’eo, ko mialy aman-droahalahi’ areo; fonga mimpolia mb’an-kiboho’e mb’eo, fa amako o raha zao. Aa le hinao’ iareo o tsara’ Iehovào vaho nimpoly tsy nionjoñe hiatreatre am’ Iarovame.
Thus saith the Lord: You shall not go up, nor fight against your brethren: let every man return to his own house, for by my will this thing has been done. And when they heard the word of the Lord, they returned, and did not go against Jeroboam,
5 Nimoneñe e Ierosalaime ao t’i Rekoboame vaho namboatse rovam-piarovañe e Iehoda ao.
And Roboam dwelt in Jerusalem, and built walled cities in Juda.
6 Namboare’e ty Betlekheme naho i Etame naho i Tekoà
And he built Bethlehem, and Etam, and Thecue,
7 naho i Bete-tsore naho i Sokò naho i Adolame
And Bethsur, and Socho, and Odollam,
8 naho i Gate naho i Maresà naho i Zife
And Geth, and Maresa, and Ziph,
9 naho i Adorame naho i Lakise naho i Azekà
And Aduram, and Lachis, and Azecha,
10 naho i Tsorà naho i Aiialone vaho i Kebrone; ie rova aman-kijoly e Iehodà naho e Beniamine ao.
Saraa also, and Aialon, and Hebron, which are in Juda and Benjamin, well fenced cities.
11 Le nihafatrare’e o rova aman-kijolio naho najo’e am’ iereo ao ty mpifeleke naho nañajà’e mahakama naho menake vaho divay.
And when he had enclosed them with walls, he put in them governors and storehouses of provisions, that is, of oil and of wine.
12 Le nasia’e fikalan-defo naho lefoñe o rova iabio vaho vata’e nihafatrare’e. Iehoda naho i Beniamine avao ty nimpirekets’ ama’e.
Moreover in every city he made an armoury of shields and spears, and he fortified them with great diligence, and he reigned over Juda, and Benjamin,
13 Nirekets’ ama’e o mpisoroñe naho nte-Levy e Israele iaby hirik’ am-paripari’e iabio.
And the priests and Levites, that were in all Israel, came to him out of all their seats,
14 Nado’ o nte-Levio o tanem-piandraza’ iareoo naho o hanaña’ iareoo vaho nivotrake e Iehodà naho e Ierosalaime ao, amy te nifarie’ Iarovame naho o ana-dahi’eo, ie tsy nampitoloñe’e o fisoroñañe am’ Iehovào,
Leaving their suburbs, and their possessions, and passing over to Juda, and Jerusalem, because Jeroboam and his sons had cast them off, from executing the priestly office to the Lord.
15 te mone noriza’e ho am-bata’e ty mpisoroñe amo toets’ aboo naho amo kokolampao vaho amo bania niranjie’eo.
And he made to himself priests for the high places, and for the devils, and for the calves which he had made.
16 Fe nanonjohy iareo ze hene boak’ am-pifokoa’ Israele nifahatse añ’arofo hipay Iehovà Andrianañahare’ Israele, nimb’e Ierosalaime mb’eo hañenga soroñe am’ Iehovà Andrianañaharen-droae’ iareo.
Moreover out of all the tribes of Israel, whosoever gave their heart to seek the Lord the God of Israel, came into Jerusalem to sacrifice their victims before the Lord the God of their fathers.
17 Aa le nihafatrare’ iereo ty fifehea’ Iehoda vaho nandrondroñe i Rekoboame ana’ i Selomò, telo taoñe, ie nañavelo an-dala’ i Davide naho i Selomò telo taoñe.
And they strengthened the kingdom of Juda, and established Roboam the son of Solomon for three years: for they walked in the ways of David and of Solomon, only three years.
18 Nañenga valy t’i Rekoboame: i Makalate anak’ ampela’ Ierimote ana’ i Davide naho a i Abihaile anak’ ampela’ i Eliabe ana’ Iiseiy;
And Roboam took to wife Mahalath, the daughter of Jerimoth the son of David: and Abihail the daughter of Eliab the son of Isai.
19 le nisamake ana-dahy: Ieose naho i Semarià vaho i Zahame.
And they bore him sons Jehus, and Somorias, and Zoom.
20 Añe izay, le nañenga i Maakà ana’ i Abisalome, ze nisamake i Abiià naho i Ataý naho i Ziza vaho i Selomite.
And after her he married Maacha the daughter of Absalom, who bore him Abia and Ethai, and Ziza, and Salomith.
21 Nikokoa’ i Rekoboame mandikoatse ze hene vali’e naho sakeza’e t’i Maakà ana’ i Abisalome; toe folo-valo’ amby ty valy nengae’e naho enempolo ty sakeza’e le nisamak’ anadahy roapolo-valo’ amby naho anak’ ampela enempolo.
And Roboam loved Maacha the daughter of Absalom above all his wives, and concubines: for he had married eighteen wives, and threescore concubines: and he beget eight and twenty sons, and threescore daughters.
22 Tinendre’ i Rekoboame ho talè t’i Abiià ana’ i Maakà, ho mpifeleke o rahalahi’eo, hihentseña’e ho mpanjaka.
But he put at the head of them Abia the son of Maacha to be the chief ruler over all his brethren: for he meant to make him king,
23 Le an-kihitse ty nampipoha’e amy ze faripari’ Iehoda naho i Beniamine iaby o ana-dahi’eo, amy ze rova fatratse iaby; le tinolo’e mahakama nahaeneñe vaho nipaia’e valy maro.
Because he was wiser and mightier than all his sons, and in all the countries of Juda, and of Benjamin, and in all the walled cities: and he gave them provisions in abundance, and he sought many wives.
