2 Tantara 11
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 Rehoboam cometh in to Jerusalem, and assembleth the house of Judah and Benjamin, a hundred and eighty thousand chosen warriors, to fight with Israel, to bring back the kingdom to Rehoboam.
2 Fe niheo amy Semaià ondatin’ Añahare ty tsara’ Iehovà nanao ty hoe:
And a word of Jehovah is unto Shemaiah, a 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 unto Rehoboam son of Solomon king of Judah, and unto all Israel in Judah and Benjamin, saying,
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 said Jehovah, Ye do not go up nor fight with your brethren, turn back each to his house, for from Me hath this thing been;' and they hear the words of Jehovah, and turn back from going against Jeroboam.
5 Nimoneñe e Ierosalaime ao t’i Rekoboame vaho namboatse rovam-piarovañe e Iehoda ao.
And Rehoboam dwelleth in Jerusalem, and buildeth cities for a bulwark in Judah,
6 Namboare’e ty Betlekheme naho i Etame naho i Tekoà
yea, he buildeth Beth-Lehem and Etam, and Tekoa,
7 naho i Bete-tsore naho i Sokò naho i Adolame
and Beth-Zur, and Shocho, and Adullam,
8 naho i Gate naho i Maresà naho i Zife
and Gath, and Mareshah, and Ziph,
9 naho i Adorame naho i Lakise naho i Azekà
and Adoraim, and Lachish, and Azekah,
10 naho i Tsorà naho i Aiialone vaho i Kebrone; ie rova aman-kijoly e Iehodà naho e Beniamine ao.
and Zorah, and Aijalon, and Hebron, that [are] in Judah and in Benjamin, cities of bulwarks.
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 he strengtheneth the bulwarks, and putteth in them leaders, and treasures of food, and oil, and 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.
and in every city and city targets and spears, and strengtheneth them very greatly; and he hath Judah and Benjamin.
13 Nirekets’ ama’e o mpisoroñe naho nte-Levy e Israele iaby hirik’ am-paripari’e iabio.
And the priests, and the Levites, that [are] in all Israel, have stationed themselves by him, out of all their border,
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,
for the Levites have left their suburbs and their possession, and they come to Judah and to Jerusalem, for Jeroboam and his sons have cast them off from acting as priests to Jehovah,
15 te mone noriza’e ho am-bata’e ty mpisoroñe amo toets’ aboo naho amo kokolampao vaho amo bania niranjie’eo.
and he establisheth to him priests for high places, and for goats, and for calves, that he 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.
and after them, out of all the tribes of Israel, those giving their heart to seek Jehovah, God of Israel, have come in to Jerusalem to sacrifice to Jehovah, God of their father.
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 strengthen the kingdom of Judah, and strengthen Rehoboam son of Solomon, for three years, because they walked in the way of David and Solomon for 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 Rehoboam taketh to him a wife, Mahalath, child of Jerimoth son of David, [and] Abigail daughter of Eliab, son of Jesse.
19 le nisamake ana-dahy: Ieose naho i Semarià vaho i Zahame.
And she beareth to him sons, Jeush, and Shamaria, and Zaham.
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 hath taken Maachah daughter of Absalom, and she beareth to him Abijah, and Attai, and Ziza, and Shelomith.
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 Rehoboam loveth Maachah daughter of Absalom above all his wives and his concubines — for eighteen wives he hath taken, and sixty concubines — and he begetteth twenty and eight sons, and sixty daughters.
22 Tinendre’ i Rekoboame ho talè t’i Abiià ana’ i Maakà, ho mpifeleke o rahalahi’eo, hihentseña’e ho mpanjaka.
And Rehoboam appointeth for head Abijah son of Maachah, for leader among his brethren, for to cause him to reign.
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.
And he hath understanding, and spreadeth out of all his sons to all lands of Judah and Benjamin, to all cities of the bulwarks, and giveth to them provision in abundance; and he asketh a multitude of wives.
