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 the LORD, 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 the LORD,
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 threescore thousand horsemen: and the people were without number that 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 fenced cities which pertained to Judah, and came unto 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 princes of Judah, that were gathered together to Jerusalem because of Shishak, and said unto them, Thus saith the LORD, Ye have forsaken me, therefore have I 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 princes of Israel and the king humbled themselves; and they said, The LORD 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 the LORD saw that they humbled themselves, the word of the LORD 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 the LORD, and the treasures of the king’s house; he took all away: he took away also 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 oft as the king entered into the house of the LORD, the guard came and bare 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 the LORD turned from him, that he would not destroy him altogether: and moreover in Judah there were good things [found].
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 and one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city which the LORD 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 set not his heart to seek the LORD.
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.
