2 Tantara 12
1 Ie nioreñe ty fifehea’ i Rekoboame naho naozatse, le naforintse’e ty Tsara’ Iehovà, ie naho Israele iaby.
And it came to pass, when the kingdom of Rehoboam was established, and he was strong, that he forsook the law of Jehovah, and all Israel with him.
2 Aa ie tan-taom-pahalime’ i Rekoboame, amy te fonga nandilatse am’ Iehovà t’Israele, le naname Ierosalaime t’i Sisake mpanjaka’ i Mitsraime,
And it came to pass in the fifth year of king Rehoboam, that Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, because they had trespassed against Jehovah,
3 reketse sarete arivo-tsi-roanjato naho mpiningi-tsoavala eneñ’ ale; naho ondaty tsifotofoto nente’e boake Mitsraimeo: o nte-Libiao, o nte-Sokio vaho o nte-Koseo.
with twelve hundred chariots, and thirty thousand horsemen. And the people were without number who came with him out of Egypt: the Lubim, the Sukkiim, and the Ethiopians.
4 Le rinambe’e o rova aman-kijoly Iehodao vaho nitakare’e t’Ierosalaime.
And he took the fortified cities which pertained to Judah, and came to Jerusalem.
5 Aa le nimb’ amy Rekoboame naho amo roandria’ Iehoda nifanontoñe e Ierosalaimeo t’i Semaià mpitoky, ty amy Sisake, le nanoe’e ty hoe: Hoe t’Iehovà: Tsinambolitio’ areo iraho, toly ndra napoko am-pità’ i Sisake.
Now Shemaiah the prophet came to Rehoboam, and to the rulers of Judah, who were gathered together to Jerusalem because of Shishak, and said to them, Thus says Jehovah, Ye have forsaken me, therefore I have also left you in the hand of Shishak.
6 Aa le nirè-batañe o roandria’ Israeleo naho i mpanjakay vaho nanao ty hoe: Vantañe t’Iehovà.
Then the rulers of Israel and the king humbled themselves, and they said, Jehovah is righteous.
7 Ie nivazoho’ Iehovà t’ie nirè-batañe, le niheo amy Semaià ty tsara’ Iehovà nanao ty hoe: Kanao nire-batañe le tsy harotsako; fa hitolorako rombake vaho tsy am-pità’ i Sisake ty hampidoañako am’Ierosalaime ty habosehako.
And when Jehovah saw that they humbled themselves, the word of Jehovah came to Shemaiah, saying, They have humbled themselves. I will not destroy them, but I will grant them some deliverance, and my wrath shall not be poured out upon Jerusalem by the hand of Shishak.
8 F’ie h’ondevo’e, hianatse ty fitoroñañe amako ami’ty fitoroñañe o fifehea’ ty tane toio.
Nevertheless they shall be his servants, that they may know my service, and the service of the kingdoms of the countries.
9 Aa le naname Ierosalaime t’i Sisake mpanjaka’ i Mitsraime nitavañe ze vara añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà ao naho ze vara’ añ’ anjomba’ i mpanjakay; fonga nendese’e; tinava’e ka o fikalan-defoñe volamena rinanji’ i Selomòo.
So Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, and took away the treasures of the house of Jehovah, and the treasures of the king's house; he took all away. He also took away the shields of gold which Solomon had made.
10 Le nandranjy fikalandefo torisike hasolo irezay t’i Rekoboame ie nampamandroñe’e o mpifehe-pigaritse mpañambeñe ty lalambei’ i mpanjakaio.
And king Rehoboam made in their stead shields of brass, and committed them to the hands of the captains of the guard that kept the door of the king's house.
11 Ie amy zao, ndra mbia’ mbia nimoak’ añ’ anjomba’ Iehovà ao i mpanjakay le rinambe’ o mpigaritseo irezay, naombe hey vaho nampoly an-trañom-piambeñe ao.
And it was so, that, as often as the king entered into the house of Jehovah, the guard came and bore them, and brought them back into the guard-chamber.
12 Aa kanao nirè-batan-dre, le nihànkañ’ ama’e ty haviñera’ Iehovà, tsy rinotsa’e ho mongotse; nanintsiñe t’Iehodà henane zay.
And when he humbled himself, the wrath of Jehovah turned from him, so as not to destroy him altogether. And moreover in Judah there were good things.
13 Le nihaozatse e Ierosalaime ao t’i Rekoboame naho nifehe; toe ni-efapolo-raik’amby taoñe ty Rekoboame te niorotse nifehe vaho nifehe folo-tao-fito’ amby e Ierosalaime ao, i rova jinobo’ Iehovà amo hene fifokoa’ Israeleo hampipoha’e i tahina’eiy; i Naamà nte-Amone ty tahinan-drene’e.
So king Rehoboam strengthened himself in Jerusalem, and reigned. For Rehoboam was forty-one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city which Jehovah had chosen out of all the tribes of Israel to put his name there. And his mother's name was Naamah the Ammonitess.
14 Nanao haratian-dre, amy te tsy nihajarie’e añ’ arofo’e ao ty fipaiñe Iehovà.
And he did that which was evil, because he did not set his heart to seek Jehovah.
15 Aa naho o fitoloña’ i Rekoboameo, ty valoha’e pak’am-para’e, tsy fa sinokitse amo talili’ i Semaià mpitoky naho Idò mpitokio hao ty amo fiantoñoñeo? Nifañotakotake nainai’e t’i Rekoboame naho Iarovame.
Now the acts of Rehoboam, first and last, are they not written in the histories of Shemaiah the prophet and of Iddo the seer, after the manner of genealogies? And there were wars between Rehoboam and Jeroboam continually.
16 Aa le nitrao-piròtse aman-droae’e t’i Rekoboame naho nalentek’ an-drova’ i Davide ao; vaho nandimbe aze nifehe t’i Abiià ana’e.
And Rehoboam slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David. And Abijah his son reigned in his stead.
