2 Nyakati 12
1 Ikawa kwamba, Rehoboamu alipokuwa ameimarishwa na mwenye nguvu, kwamba akaikataa sheria ya Yahwe—na Waisraeli wote pamoja naye.
And it was when established [the] kingdom of Rehoboam and according to strengthening his he forsook [the] law of Yahweh and all Israel with him.
2 Ilitokea katika mwaka wa tano wa Mfalme Rehoboamu, kwamba, Shishaki, mfalme wa Israeli, akaja kinyume na Yerusalelemu, kwa sababu watu walikuwa wameacha kuwa waaminifu kwa Yahwe.
And it was in the year fifth of the king Rehoboam he came up Shishak [the] king of Egypt on Jerusalem for they had acted unfaithfully against Yahweh.
3 Akaja na magari elfu moja na mia mbili pamoja naye na wapand farasi elfu sitini. Askari wasio hesabika wakaja pamaoja naye kutoka Misri: Walubi, Wasukii, na Waethiopia.
With one thousand and two hundred chariot[s] and with sixty thousand horsemen and not number [belonged] to the people which they came with him from Egypt Libyans Sukkites and Cushites.
4 Akaiteka miji yenye ngome ya Yuda na akaja Yerusalemu.
And he captured [the] cities of fortifications which [belonged] to Judah and he came to Jerusalem.
5 Sasa Shemaya nabii akaja kwa Rehoboamu na kwa viongozi wa Yuda ambao walikuwa wamekusanyika pamoja Yerusalemu kwa sababu ya Shishaki. Shemaya akasema kwao, “Hivi ndivyo anavyosema Yahwe: Mmenisahau, kwa hiyo pia nimewaweka katika mkono wa Shishaki”.
And Shemaiah the prophet he came to Rehoboam and [the] leaders of Judah who they had gathered to Jerusalem because of Shishak and he said to them thus he says Yahweh you you have abandoned me and also I I have abandoned you in [the] hand of Shishak.
6 Kisha wakuu wa Israeli na mfalme wakajinyenyekeza na kusema, “Yahwe ni mtakatifu.”
And they humbled themselves [the] leaders of Israel and the king and they said [is] righteous - Yahweh.
7 Yaahwe alipoona kuwa wamejinyenyekeza, neno la Yahwe likamjia Shemaya, likisema, “Wamejinyenyekeza. Stawaadhibu; nitawaokoa kwa hataua fulani, na hasira yangu haitamiminwa juu ya Yerusalemu kwa mkono wa Shishaki.
And when saw Yahweh that they had humbled themselves it came [the] word of Yahweh to Shemaiah - saying they have humbled themselves not I will destroy them and I will give to them like a little deliverance and not it will pour forth rage my on Jerusalem by [the] hand of Shishak.
8 Vile vile, watakuwa watumishi wake, ili kwamba wajue nini maana ya kunitumikia mimi na kuwatumikia watawala wa nchi zingine.”
For they will become of him subjects so they may know service my and [the] service of [the] kingdoms of the lands.
9 Kwa hiyo Shishaki, mfalme wa Misiri akaja Yerusalemu akazichukua hazina katika nyumba ya Yahwe, na hazina katika nyumba ya mfalme. akachukua kila kitu; pia akazichukua ngao za dhahabu alizokuwa amezitengeneza Selemani. Mfalme
And he came up Shishak [the] king of Egypt on Jerusalem and he took [the] treasures of [the] house of Yahweh and [the] treasures of [the] house of the king everything he took and he took [the] shields of gold which he had made Solomon.
10 Rehoboamu akatengeneza ngao za shaba katika nafasi zake na kuzikabidhi mikoni mwa maamrijeshi wa walinzi, amabao waliilinda milango ya kuelekea kwenye nyumba ya mfalme.
And he made the king Rehoboam in place of them shields of bronze and he entrusted [them] on [the] hand of [the] commanders of the runners who guarded [the] entrance of [the] house of the king.
11 Ikawa kwamba mfalme kila alipoingia katika nyumba ya Yahwe, walinzi wakazibeba; kisha wakazirudisha katika nyumba ya ulinzi.
And it was as often as came the king [the] house of Yahweh they came the runners and they carried them and they returned them to [the] guardroom of the runners.
12 Rehoboamu alipojinyenyekeza mwenyewe, ghadhabu ya Yahwe ikampisha mbali, kwa hiyo hakumwangamiza kabisa kabisa; pembeni, bado kulikuwa na baadhi ya wema wa kupatikana katika Yuda.
And when he humbled himself it turned back from him [the] anger of Yahweh and not to destroy to complete destruction and also in Judah it was things good.
13 Hivyo mfalme Rehoboamu akafanya ufalme wake imara katika Yerusalemu, na kwa hiyo akatawala. Rehoboamu alikuwa na umri wa miaka aroabaini na moja alipoanza kutawala, na akatawala kwa muda wa mika kumi na saba katika Yerusalemu, mji ambao Yahwe alikuwa ameuchagua kutoka kwa makabila ya Israeli ili kwamba aliweke jina lake humo. Jina lake aliitwa Naama, Mwamoni.
And he strengthened himself the king Rehoboam in Jerusalem and he reigned for [was] a son of forty and one year[s] Rehoboam when became king he and seven-teen year[s] - he reigned in Jerusalem the city where he had chosen Yahweh to put name his there from all [the] tribes of Israel and [the] name of mother his [was] Naamah the Ammonite [woman].
14 Akafanya yaliyokuwa uovu, kwa sababu hakuuelekeza moyo wake kumtafuta Yahwe.
And he did evil for not he had directed heart his to seek Yahweh.
15 Kwa mambo mengine kuhusu Rehoboamu, mwanzo na mwisho, hayakuandikwa katika maandishi ya Shemaya nabii na ya Ido mwonaji, ambayo pia yana kumbukumbu ya vizazi na vita kati ya Rehoboamu na Yeroboamu?
And [the] matters of Rehoboam former and latter ¿ not [are] they written in [the] words of Shemaiah the prophet and Iddo the seer for genealogical enrollment and [the] wars of Rehoboam and Jeroboam [were] all the days.
16 Rehoboamu akalala pamoja na babu zake na alizikwa katika mji wa Daudi; Abiya mwanye akawa mfalme katika nafasi yake.
And he lay down Rehoboam with ancestors his and he was buried in [the] city of David and he became king Abijah son his in place of him.
