2 Chronicles 12
1 Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí a fi ìjọba Rehoboamu múlẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọba, tí ó sì ti di alágbára, òun àti gbogbo Israẹli, pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ ni wọ́n pa òfin Olúwa tì.
And it came to pass when the kingdom of Roboam was established, and when he had grown strong, [that] he forsook the commandments of the Lord, and all Israel with him.
2 Nítorí tí wọn kò ṣọ òtítọ́ sí Olúwa. Ṣiṣaki ọba Ejibiti dojúkọ Jerusalẹmu ní ọdún karùn-ún ti ọba Rehoboamu.
And it came to pass in the fifth year of the reign of Roboam, Susakim king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, because they had sinned against the Lord,
3 Pẹ̀lú ẹgbàá mẹ́fà kẹ̀kẹ́ àti ọ̀kẹ́ mẹ́ta àwọn ọkùnrin ẹlẹ́ṣin àti àìníye ọ̀wọ́ ogun ti Libia, Sukki àti Kuṣi, tí ó wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ láti Ejibiti.
with twelve hundred chariots, and sixty thousand horses: and there was no number of the multitude that came with him from Egypt; Libyans, Trogodytes, and Ethiopians.
4 Ó fi agbára mú àwọn ìlú ààbò ti Juda, pẹ̀lú wá sí Jerusalẹmu bí ó ti jìnnà tó.
And they obtained possession of the strong cities, which were in Juda, and came to Jerusalem.
5 Nígbà náà, wòlíì Ṣemaiah wá sí ọ̀dọ̀ Rehoboamu àti sí ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn olórí Juda tí wọ́n ti péjọ ní Jerusalẹmu nítorí ìbẹ̀rù Ṣiṣaki, ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí: ìwọ ti pa mí tì; nítorí náà èmi náà ti pa yín tì sí ọ̀dọ̀ Ṣiṣaki.”
And Samaias the prophet came to Roboam, and to the princes of Juda that were gathered to Jerusalem for fear of Susakim, and said to them, Thus said the Lord, You have left me, and I will leave you in the hand of Susakim.
6 Àwọn olórí Israẹli àti ọba rẹ̀ ará wọn sílẹ̀, wọ́n sì wí pé, “Olódodo ni Olúwa.”
And the elders of Israel and the king were ashamed, and said, The Lord [is] righteous.
7 Nígbà tí Olúwa rí i pé, wọ́n ti rẹ̀ ara wọn sílẹ̀ ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa yí tọ Ṣemaiah lọ pé, “Níwọ́n ìgbà tí wọ́n ti rẹ ara wọn sílẹ̀, Èmi kì yóò pa wọ́n ṣùgbọ́n, yóò fún wọn ní ìtúsílẹ̀ tó bá yá. Ìbínú mi kì yóò dà sórí Jerusalẹmu ní ipasẹ̀ Ṣiṣaki.
And when the Lord saw that they repented, then came the word of the Lord to Samaias, saying, They have repented; I will not destroy them, but I will set them in safety for a little while, and my wrath shall not be poured out on Jerusalem.
8 Bí ó ti wù kí ó rí, wọn yóò sìn ní abẹ́ rẹ̀, kí wọn kí ó lè mọ̀ ìyàtọ̀ láàrín sí sìn mí àti sí sin àwọn ọba ilẹ̀ mìíràn.”
Nevertheless they shall be servants, and know my service, and the service of the kings of the earth.
9 Nígbà tí Ṣiṣaki ọba Ejibiti dojúkọ Jerusalẹmu, ó gbé àwọn ìṣúra ilé Olúwa, àti àwọn ìṣúra ààfin ọba. Ó gbé gbogbo rẹ̀, pẹ̀lú àwọn àpáta wúrà tí Solomoni dá.
So Susakim king of Egypt went up against Jerusalem, and took the treasures that were in the house of the Lord, and the treasures that were in the king's house: he took all; and he took the golden shields which Solomon had made.
10 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni, ọba Rehoboamu dá àwọn àpáta idẹ láti fi dípò wọn, ó sì fi èyí lé àwọn alákòóso àti olùṣọ́ tí ó wà ní ẹnu iṣẹ́ ní àbáwọlé ẹnu-ọ̀nà ààfin ọba lọ́wọ́.
And king Roboam made brazen shields instead of them. And Susakim set over him captains of footmen, as keepers of the gate of the king.
11 Ìgbàkígbà tí ọba bá lọ sí ilé Olúwa, àwọn olùṣọ́ n lọ pẹ̀lú rẹ̀, wọ́n ń gbé àwọn àpáta náà àti lẹ́yìn, wọ́n dá wọn padà sí yàrá ìṣọ́.
And it came to pass, when the king went into the house of the Lord, the guards and the footmen went in, and they that returned to meet the footmen.
12 Nítorí ti Rehoboamu rẹ ara rẹ̀ sílẹ̀, ìbínú Olúwa yí padà kúrò lórí rẹ̀, a kò sì pa á run pátápátá. Nítòótọ́, ìre díẹ̀ wà ní Juda.
And when he repented, the anger of the Lord turned from him, and did not destroy him utterly; for there were good things in Juda.
13 Ọba Rehoboamu fi ara rẹ̀ lélẹ̀ gidigidi ní Jerusalẹmu, ó sì tẹ̀síwájú gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọba. Ó jẹ́ ẹni ọdún mọ́kànlélógójì nígbà tí ó di ọba. Ó sì jẹ ọba fún ọdún mẹ́tàdínlọ́gbọ̀n ní Jerusalẹmu, ìlú ńlá tí Olúwa ti yàn jáde kúrò nínú gbogbo àwọn ẹ̀yà Israẹli ní èyí tí ó fẹ́ fi orúkọ rẹ̀ síbẹ̀. Orúkọ ìyá rẹ̀ ni Naama, ará Ammoni.
So king Roboam strengthened [himself] in Jerusalem, and reigned: and Roboam was forty and one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, in the city which the Lord chose out of all the tribes of the children of Israel to call his name there: and his mother's name was Noomma the Ammanitess.
14 O sì ṣe búburú, nítorí tí kò múra nínú ọkàn rẹ̀ láti wá Olúwa.
And he did evil, for he directed not his heart to seek the Lord.
15 Fún tí iṣẹ́ ìjọba Rehoboamu láti ìbẹ̀rẹ̀ dé ìparí, ṣé a kò kọ wọ́n sínú ìwé ìrántí ti Ṣemaiah wòlíì àti ti Iddo, aríran tí ó ní ṣe pẹ̀lú ìtàn ìdílé láti ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn baba ńlá? Ìtẹ̀síwájú ogun jíjà sì wà láàrín Rehoboamu àti Jeroboamu.
And the acts of Roboam, the first and the last, behold, are they not written in the book of Samaia the prophet, and Addo the seer, with his achievements.
16 Rehoboamu sun pẹ̀lú àwọn baba rẹ̀ a sin ín sínú ìlú ńlá ti Dafidi. Abijah ọmọ rẹ̀ sì rọ́pò rẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọba.
And Roboam made war with Jeroboam all [his] days. And Roboam died with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David: and Abia his son reigned in his stead.
