1 Markaasaa Rexabcaam wuxuu tegey Shekem, maxaa yeelay, reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammu waxay yimaadeen Shekem inay isaga ku soo boqraan.
All the people of Israel went to Shechem [city] in order to appoint Rehoboam to be their king. So Rehoboam also went there.
2 Oo markii Yaaraabcaam ina Nebaad taas maqlay ayuu ka soo noqday dalkii Masar (waayo, wuxuu joogay dalkii Masar oo uu Boqor Sulaymaan kaga cararay).
Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, had fled to Egypt [to escape] from King Solomon. But when he heard [about the people wanting to appoint Rehoboam to be their king], he returned [to Israel] from Egypt
3 Waa loo cid diray oo loo yeedhay, oo Yaaraabcaam iyo reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammuna way yimaadeen, markaasay Rexabcaam la hadleen, oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen,
So the [leaders of the northern tribes] summoned him, and he went with them [to talk] to Rehoboam. They said to Rehoboam,
4 War aabbahaa harqood daran buu na saaray, haddaba noo fududee hawshii aabbahaa oo adkayd iyo harqoodkiisii cuslaa oo uu na saaray, annana waannu kuu adeegaynaa.
“Your father [Solomon] forced us to work very hard for him. If you do not force us to work that hard, and if you charge us less taxes than we were paying to him, we will serve you [faithfully].”
5 Markaasuu ku yidhi, Saddex maalmood dabadood igu soo noqda. Markaasaa dadkii ka tegey.
He replied, “Come back three days from now [and I will give you my answer].” So those leaders [and Jeroboam] left.
6 Markaasaa Boqor Rexabcaam la tashaday odayaashii aabbihiis Sulaymaan intuu noolaa hor joogi jiray, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, War maxaad igula talinaysaan oo aan dadkan jawaab ugu celiyaa?
Then King Rehoboam consulted his older men who had advised his father Solomon while he was still alive. He asked them, “What shall I say to answer these men?”
7 Oo intay la hadleen ayay ku yidhaahdeen, Haddaad dadkan u roonaatid, oo aad ka farxisid, oo aad erayo wanaagsan kula hadashid, markaasay weligood addoommo kuu ahaanayaan.
They replied, “If you will be kind to these people and do things that will please them, and if you say kind things to them when you answer them, they will always serve you.”
8 Laakiinse wuu ka tegey taladii odayaashu kula taliyeen, oo haddana wuxuu la arrinsaday raggii dhallinyarada ahaa oo isaga la koray ee hortiisa joogay.
But he ignored what the older men advised him to do. Instead, he consulted the younger men who had grown up with him, who were now his advisors.
9 Oo wuxuu iyagii ku yidhi, War maxaad igula talinaysaan oo aan jawaab ugu celinnaa dadkan ila hadlay oo igu yidhi, War harqoodkii aabbahaa na saaray noo fududee?
He said to them, “How should I answer the men who are asking me to reduce the [work and taxes] that my father required from them?”
10 Markaasay raggii dhallintayaraa oo isaga la koray la hadleen, oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, La hadal dadkii kula hadlay oo kugu yidhi, Aabbahaa harqood daran buu na saaray ee adigu noo fududee. Oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Faryaradaydu waa ka sii dhumuc weyn tahay aabbahay dhexdiisa.
The young men who had grown up with him replied, “[Those men] have said that your father forced them to work very hard for him, so they want you to reduce the [work and taxes] that your father required from them. But this is what you should tell them: ‘My little finger is thicker than my father’s waist.
11 Haddaba meeshii aabbahay harqood culus idinka saaray, anna culays baan idiinku sii darayaa, oo aabbahay wuxuu idinku edbin jiray shaabuugyo, laakiinse anigu waxaan idinku edbinayaa hangarallayaal.
What I mean is that my father required you to [work hard and pay high taxes]. But I will make those loads heavier. [It was as though] my father whipped you, but I will whip you with whips that have pieces of metal in them.’”
12 Sidaas daraaddeed Yaaraabcaam iyo dadkii oo dhammuba maalintii saddexaad ayay Rexabcaam u yimaadeen siduu boqorku hore ugu amray markuu ku yidhi, Maalinta saddexaad igu soo noqda.
Three days later, Jeroboam and all the leaders came to King Rehoboam again, which is what he had told them to do.
13 Markaasaa Boqor Rexabcaam ka tegey taladii raggii odayaasha ahaa, oo si qallafsan ayuu ugu jawaabay,
The king ignored the advice of the older men and spoke harshly to the Israeli leaders.
14 oo wuxuu kula hadlay taladii raggii dhallintayaraa, oo ku yidhi, Aabbahay harqood culus buu idin saaray, laakiinse anna culays kalaan idiinku sii darayaa, aabbahay wuxuu idinku edbin jiray shaabuugyo, laakiinse anigu waxaan idinku edbinayaa hangarallayaal.
[He told them what the younger men had advised.] He said, “My father put heavy burdens [of work and taxes] on you, but I will put heavier burdens on you. [It was as though] he beat you with whips, but I will beat you with whips that have pieces of metal in them!”
15 Sidaas daraaddeed boqorkii dadkii ma uu dhegaysan, waayo, taasu xagga Ilaah bay ka timid, si uu Rabbigu u adkeeyo eraygiisii uu Yaaraabcaam ina Nebaad kula hadlay oo uu u soo dhiibay Axiiyaah kii reer Shiiloh.
So the king did not pay any attention to the Israeli leaders. But this happened in order that what Yahweh had told the prophet Ahijah about Jeroboam would happen.
16 Oo dadkii Israa'iil oo dhammuna markay arkeen inaan boqorku dhegaysan ayaa dadkii waxay boqorkii ugu jawaabeen oo ku yidhaahdeen, Bal maxaan qayb ku leennahay Daa'uud? Dhaxalna kuma lihin ina Yesay. Haddaba dadkii Israa'iilow, nin kastow, teendhadaadii tag. Oo Daa'uudow, bal eeg, reerkaagii waa kuu kaas. Markaasay dadkii Israa'iil oo dhammu teendhooyinkoodii tageen.
When the Israeli leaders realized that the king did not pay any attention to what they said, they shouted, “We do not want anything to do with this descendant of King David! We will not pay attention to what this grandson of Jesse says! You people of Israel, let’s go home! As for this descendant of David, he can rule his own kingdom!” So the Israeli leaders returned to their homes.
17 Laakiinse Rexabcaam wuxuu boqor u ahaa intii reer binu Israa'iil ahayd ee degganayd magaalooyinka reer Yahuudah.
And [after that, the only Israeli] people whom Rehoboam ruled over were those who lived in the territory of [the tribes of] Judah [and Benjamin].
18 Markaasaa Boqor Rexabcaam wuxuu diray Hadooraam oo cashuurta u sarreeyey, oo dadkii Israa'iil dhagax bay la dhaceen, wuuna dhintay. Markaasaa Boqor Rexabcaam ku degdegay inuu fuulo gaadhifaraskiisii si uu Yeruusaalem ugu cararo.
Then King Rehoboam went with Adoniram [to talk to the Israeli people]. Adoniram was the man who supervised [all the men who were] forced to work [for Rehoboam]. But the Israeli people killed him by throwing stones at him. When that happened, King Rehoboam quickly got in his chariot and escaped to Jerusalem.
19 Sidaasay dadkii Israa'iil ugu caasiyoobeen Daa'uud reerkiisii ilaa maantadan la joogo.
Ever since that time, [the people of the northern tribes of] Israel have been rebelling against the descendants of [King] David.
