وَلَمَّا تَثَبَّتَتْ مَمْلَكَةُ رَحُبْعَامَ وَتَشَدَّدَتْ، تَرَكَ شَرِيعَةَ ٱلرَّبِّ هُوَ وَكُلُّ إِسْرَائِيلَ مَعَهُ. ١ 1
It happened, when the kingdom of Rehoboam was established, and he was strong, that he forsook the law of Jehovah, and all Israel with him.
وَفِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلْخَامِسَةِ لِلْمَلِكِ رَحُبْعَامَ صَعِدَ شِيشَقُ مَلِكُ مِصْرَ عَلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ، لِأَنَّهُمْ خَانُوا ٱلرَّبَّ، ٢ 2
It happened in the fifth year of king Rehoboam, that Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, because they had trespassed against Jehovah,
بِأَلْفٍ وَمِئَتَيْ مَرْكَبَةٍ وَسِتِّينَ أَلْفَ فَارِسٍ، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ عَدَدٌ لِلشَّعْبِ ٱلَّذِينَ جَاءُوا مَعَهُ مِنْ مِصْرَ: لُوبِيِّينَ وَسُكِّيِّينَ وَكُوشِيِّينَ. ٣ 3
with twelve hundred chariots, and sixty thousand horsemen. The people were without number who came with him out of Egypt: the Lubim, the Sukkiim, and the Ethiopians.
وَأَخَذَ ٱلْمُدُنَ ٱلْحَصِينَةَ ٱلَّتِي لِيَهُوذَا وَأَتَى إِلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ. ٤ 4
He took the fortified cities which pertained to Judah, and came to Jerusalem.
فَجَاءَ شَمْعِيَا ٱلنَّبِيُّ إِلَى رَحُبْعَامَ وَرُؤَسَاءِ يَهُوذَا ٱلَّذِينَ ٱجْتَمَعُوا فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ مِنْ وَجْهِ شِيشَقَ، وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: أَنْتُمْ تَرَكْتُمُونِي وَأَنَا أَيْضًا تَرَكْتُكُمْ لِيَدِ شِيشَقَ». ٥ 5
And Shemaiah the prophet came to Rehoboam, and to the leaders of Judah, who were gathered together to Jerusalem because of Shishak, and said to them, "Thus says Jehovah, 'You have forsaken me, therefore have I also left you in the hand of Shishak.'"
فَتَذَلَّلَ رُؤَسَاءُ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَٱلْمَلِكُ وَقَالُوا: «بَارٌّ هُوَ ٱلرَّبُّ». ٦ 6
Then the leaders of Israel and the king humbled themselves; and they said, "Jehovah is righteous."
فَلَمَّا رَأَى ٱلرَّبُّ أَنَّهُمْ تَذَلَّلُوا، كَانَ كَلَامُ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَى شَمْعِيَا قَائِلًا: «قَدْ تَذَلَّلُوا فَلَا أُهْلِكُهُمْ بَلْ أُعْطِيهِمْ قَلِيلًا مِنَ ٱلنَّجَاةِ، وَلَا يَنْصَبُّ غَضَبِي عَلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ بِيَدِ شِيشَقَ، ٧ 7
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 on Jerusalem by the hand of Shishak.
لَكِنَّهُمْ يَكُونُونَ لَهُ عَبِيدًا وَيَعْلَمُونَ خِدْمَتِي وَخِدْمَةَ مَمَالِكِ ٱلْأَرَاضِي». ٨ 8
Nevertheless they shall be his servants, that they may know my service, and the service of the kingdoms of the countries."
فَصَعِدَ شِيشَقُ مَلِكُ مِصْرَ عَلَى أُورُشَلِيمَ وَأَخَذَ خَزَائِنَ بَيْتِ ٱلرَّبِّ وَخَزَائِنَ بَيْتِ ٱلْمَلِكِ، أَخَذَ ٱلْجَمِيعَ، وَأَخَذَ أَتْرَاسَ ٱلذَّهَبِ ٱلَّتِي عَمِلَهَا سُلَيْمَانُ. ٩ 9
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 it all away. He also took away the shields of gold which Solomon had made.
فَعَمِلَ ٱلْمَلِكُ رَحُبْعَامُ عِوَضًا عَنْهَا أَتْرَاسَ نُحَاسٍ وَسَلَّمَهَا إِلَى أَيْدِي رُؤَسَاءِ ٱلسُّعَاةِ ٱلْحَافِظِينَ بَابَ بَيْتِ ٱلْمَلِكِ. ١٠ 10
King Rehoboam made in their place shields of bronze, and committed them to the hands of the captains of the guard, who kept the door of the king's house.
وَكَانَ إِذَا دَخَلَ ٱلْمَلِكُ بَيْتَ ٱلرَّبِّ يَأْتِي ٱلسُّعَاةُ وَيَحْمِلُونَهَا، ثُمَّ يُرْجِعُونَهَا إِلَى غُرْفَةِ ٱلسُّعَاةِ. ١١ 11
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 room.
وَلَمَّا تَذَلَّلَ ٱرْتَدَّ عَنْهُ غَضَبُ ٱلرَّبِّ فَلَمْ يُهْلِكْهُ تَمَامًا. وَكَذَلِكَ كَانَ فِي يَهُوذَا أُمُورٌ حَسَنَةٌ. ١٢ 12
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 found.
فَتَشَدَّدَ ٱلْمَلِكُ رَحُبْعَامُ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ وَمَلَكَ، لِأَنَّ رَحُبْعَامَ كَانَ ٱبْنَ إِحْدَى وَأَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً حِينَ مَلَكَ، وَمَلَكَ سَبْعَ عَشْرَةَ سَنَةً فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ، ٱلْمَدِينَةِ ٱلَّتِي ٱخْتَارَهَا ٱلرَّبُّ لِيَضَعَ ٱسْمَهُ فِيهَا دُونَ جَمِيعِ أَسْبَاطِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَٱسْمُ أُمِّهِ نَعْمَةُ ٱلْعَمُّونِيَّةُ. ١٣ 13
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.
وَعَمِلَ ٱلشَّرَّ لِأَنَّهُ لَمْ يُهَيِّئْ قَلْبَهُ لِطَلَبِ ٱلرَّبِّ. ١٤ 14
He did that which was evil, because he did not set his heart to seek Jehovah.
وَأُمُورُ رَحُبْعَامَ ٱلْأُولَى وَٱلْأَخِيرَةُ، أَمَاهِيَ مَكْتُوبَةٌ فِي أَخْبَارِ شَمْعِيَا ٱلنَّبِيِّ وَعِدُّو ٱلرَّائِي عَنِ ٱلِٱنْتِسَابِ؟ وَكَانَتْ حُرُوبٌ بَيْنَ رَحُبْعَامَ وَيَرُبْعَامَ كُلَّ ٱلْأَيَّامِ. ١٥ 15
Now the acts of Rehoboam, first and last, aren't they written in the histories of Shemaiah the prophet and of Iddo the seer, after the way of genealogies? There were wars between Rehoboam and Jeroboam continually.
ثُمَّ ٱضْطَجَعَ رَحُبْعَامُ مَعَ آبَائِهِ وَدُفِنَ فِي مَدِينَةِ دَاوُدَ، وَمَلَكَ أَبِيَّا ٱبْنُهُ عِوَضًا عَنْهُ. ١٦ 16
And Rehoboam slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers, and he was buried in the City of David. And Abijah his son reigned in his place.
