1 Manghai 14
1 Te vaeng tue ah Jeroboam capa Abijah te tlo.
In that time Abijah, the son of Jeroboam, became ill.
2 Te dongah Jeroboam loh a yuu te, “Thoo lamtah thovael uh laeh. Te daengah ni nang te Jeroboam yuu la m'hmat pawt eh. Shiloh kah tonghma Ahijah taengah cet ne. Anih long ni he pilnam soah manghai la om ham kai taengah a thui.
And Jeroboam said to his wife: “Rise up, and change clothing, so that you will not be recognized to be the wife of Jeroboam. And go to Shiloh, where the prophet Ahijah is, who said to me that I should reign over this people.
3 Na kut dongah buhham neh buhrhaeng cun rha, khoitui tuitang um at khuen. A taengla paan lamtah camoe taengah metla a om ham khaw amah loh nang taengah han thui bitni,” a ti nah.
Also, take in your hand ten loaves, and dried bread, and a container of honey, and go to him. For he will reveal to you what will happen to this boy.”
4 Jeroboam yuu loh a saii van tangloeng. Thoo tih Shiloh la cet tih Ahijah im a pha. Ahijah khaw a hamca neh a mik hmang tih hmu thai voel pawh.
The wife of Jeroboam did just as he had said. And rising up, she went away to Shiloh. And she arrived at the house of Ahijah. But he was unable to see, because his eyes had dimmed due to old age.
5 Tedae BOEIPA Ahijah taengah, “Jeroboam yuu ke a capa kah a tloh dongah nang taengah ol dawt ham ha pawk coeng. Anih te, ‘He tlam ni, ke tlam ni,’ ti nah. Anih ha pawk khaw amah loha lah ko,” a ti nah.
Then the Lord said to Ahijah: “Behold, the wife of Jeroboam enters, so that she may consult you over her son, who is ill. You shall say one thing and another to her.” Therefore, as she was entering, not presenting herself to be who she was,
6 Thohka a pha vaengah a kho ol te Ahijah loh a yaak tih, “Jeroboam yuu ha kun saw, balae tih na muet uh? Kai he nang ham mangkhak la n'tueih coeng.
Ahijah heard the sound of her feet, entering through the door. And he said: “Enter, O wife of Jeroboam. Why do you pretend to be someone you are not? But I have been sent to you with harsh news.
7 Cet lamtah Jeroboam taengah thui pah. Israel Pathen BOEIPA loh he ni a thui. Nang he pilnam khui lamloh kan pomsang tih nang he ka pilnam Israel soah rhaengsang la kang khueh.
Go, and tell Jeroboam: ‘Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel: Although I exalted you from the midst of the people, and I granted to you to be the leader over my people Israel,
8 Ram he David imkhui lamloh ka phen tih nang taengah kam paek coeng. Tedae ka olpaek aka ngaithuen tih ka mik ah a thuem bueng saii ham a thinko boeih neh kai hnukah aka pongpa ka sal David bangla na om moenih.
and I tore the kingdom away from the house of David, and I gave it to you, yet you have not been like David, my servant, who kept my commandments, and who followed me with his whole heart, doing what was pleasing in my sight.
9 Namah hmai kah aka om boeih lakah na saii khaw na thae aih. Na cet tih namah ham pathen tloe na saii. Mueihlawn neh kai nan veet tih kai he na nam la nan voeih.
Instead, you have worked evil beyond all those who were before you. And you have made for yourself strange gods and molten images, so that you provoke me to anger. And you have cast me behind your back.
10 Te dongah Jeroboam im ah boethae ka khuen coeng he. Jeroboam lamloh pangbueng aka yun thil tih a khoh khaw, Israel khuikah aka loeih khaw ka thup ni. Aekkhuel a cing hil a toih bangla Jeroboam imkhui hnukah ka toih ni.
For this reason, behold, I will lead evils over the house of Jeroboam, and I will strike down from Jeroboam that which urinates against a wall, and that which is lame, and that which is last in Israel. And I will cleanse that which remains of the house of Jeroboam, just as dung is usually cleaned away, until there is purity.
11 BOEIPA loh a thui coeng dongah Jeroboam kah a duek rhok te khopuei ah ui loh a caak vetih lohma ah aka duek te vaan kah vaa rhoek loh a caak ni.
Those who will have died of Jeroboam in the city, the dogs will devour them. And those who will have died in the field, the birds of the heavens will devour them. For the Lord has spoken.’
12 Namah thoo lamtah na im la mael laeh. Na kho loh khopuei khuila a kun neh camoe te duek ni.
Therefore, you must rise up, and go to your house. And in the city, at the very entrance of your feet, the boy will die.
13 Anih te Israel pum loh a rhaengsae vetih a up ni. Jeroboam im ah Israel Pathen BOEIPA kah hno then he a khuiah a hmuh dongah Jeroboam khui lamloh anih bueng he ni phuel khuila a pha eh.
And all of Israel will mourn him, and will bury him. For he alone of Jeroboam shall be brought into a sepulcher. For concerning him, there has been found a good word from the Lord, the God of Israel, in the house of Jeroboam.
14 BOEIPA loh Israel soah manghai a pai sak ni. Anih loh tahae khohnin ah Jeroboam imkhui te a thup pawn ni.
But the Lord has appointed for himself a king over Israel, who will strike down the house of Jeroboam, in this day and in this time.
15 BOEIPA loh Israel te tui dongkah capu a vikvawk bangla a ngawn vetih a napa rhoek taengah a paek he khohmuen then dong lamloh Israel te a phuk ni. Amamih kah Asherah a saii uh neh BOEIPA te a veet uh dongah amih te tuiva rhalvangan duela a haeh uh ni.
And the Lord God shall strike Israel, just as a reed is usually shaken in the water. And he will uproot Israel from this good land, which he gave to their fathers. And he will winnow them beyond the river. For they have made for themselves sacred groves, so that they have provoked the Lord.
16 Jeroboam kah tholhnah kong ah tholh tih Israel a tholh vanbangla Israel te a tloeng ni,” a ti nah.
And the Lord will hand over Israel, because of the sins of Jeroboam, who has sinned and caused Israel to sin.”
17 Te phoeiah Jeroboam yuu te thoo tih mael. Tirzah la cet tih im kah cingkhaa te a cawt vaengah camoe te duek.
And so, the wife of Jeroboam rose up, and she went away. And she arrived at Tirzah. And as she was entering the threshold of the house, the boy died.
18 BOEIPA ol loh a sal tonghma Ahijah kut ah a thui bangla camoe a up uh vaengah Israel pum loh anih te a rhaengsae uh.
And they buried him, and all of Israel mourned for him, in accord with the word of the Lord, which he spoke by the hand of his servant Ahijah, the prophet.
19 Ol noi la Jeroboam kah a vathoh neh a manghai te, Israel manghai rhoek kah khokhuen tue olka cabu dongah a daek uh ne.
Now the rest of the words of Jeroboam, the manner in which he fought, and the manner in which he reigned, behold, these were written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Israel.
20 A khohnin la Jeroboam he kum kul kum nit a manghai phoeiah tah a napa rhoek taengla khoem uh. Te phoeiah tah anih yueng la a capa Nadab tloep manghai.
And the days during which Jeroboam reigned were twenty-two years. And he slept with his fathers. And Nadab, his son, reigned in his place.
21 Solomon capa Rehoboam tah Judah ah manghai. Rehoboam a manghai vaengah kum sawmli kum khat lo ca coeng. Israel koca boeih khui lamloh amah ming te pahoi khueh ham BOEIPA loh a coelh Jerusalem khopuei ah kum hlai rhih manghai. A manu ming tah Ammoni nu Naamah ni.
Now Rehoboam, the son of Solomon, reigned in Judah. Rehoboam was forty-one years old when he had begun to reign. And he reigned for seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city that the Lord chose, out of all the tribes of Israel, so that he might place his name there. And the name of his mother was Naamah, an Ammonite.
22 Judah khaw BOEIPA mikhmuh ah boethae a saii. A tholhnah neh a tholh uh te a napa rhoek kah a saii boeih lakah BOEIPA a thatlai sak uh.
And Judah did evil in the sight of the Lord, and they provoked him beyond all that their fathers had done, by their sins that they committed.
23 Amih loh hmuensang neh kaam te amamih ham a thoh uh. Som a sang boeih neh thing hing hmui boeih ah Asherah a ling uh.
For they, too, built for themselves altars, and statues, and sacred groves, upon every high hill and under every leafy tree.
24 BOEIPA loh Israel ca rhoek mikhmuh ah a haek namtom rhoek kah tueilaehkoi cungkuem bangla a saii uh tih khohmuen ah hlanghalh khaw om.
Moreover, the effeminate were in the land, and they committed all the abominations of the peoples that the Lord had destroyed before the face of the sons of Israel.
25 Rehoboam manghai te a kum nga dongla a pha vaengah Egypt manghai Shishak loh Jerusalem te a paan.
Then, in the fifth year of the reign of Rehoboam, Shishak, the king of Egypt, ascended against Jerusalem.
26 Te vaengah BOEIPA im kah thakvoh neh manghai im kah thakvoh khaw vik a phueih. Solomon loh a saii sui photling boeih te khaw a pum la a loh tih a khuen.
And he took away the treasures of the house of the Lord, and the royal treasures, and he plundered everything, including the shields of gold that Solomon had made.
27 Te dongah manghai Rehoboam loh a yueng la rhohum photling a saii tih manghai im thohka aka tawt imtawt mangpa kut ah a soep sak.
In place of these, king Rehoboam made shields of brass, and he delivered them into the hand of the commanders of the shield bearers, and of those who were keeping the night watch before the gate of the king’s house.
28 BOEIPA im la manghai a kun dingdoeng vaengah imtawt rhoek loh te te a muk uh. Te phoeiah tah imtawt kah tanhnaem la koep a khoem uh.
And when the king entered into the house of the Lord, these were carried by those who held the office to go before him. And afterward, they carried them back to the armory of the shield bearers.
29 Rehoboam kah ol noi neh a saii boeih te Judah manghai rhoek kah khokhuen olka cabu dongah a daek uh moenih a?
Now the rest of the words of Rehoboam, and all that he did, behold, these were written in the book of the words of the days of the kings of Judah.
30 Rehoboam laklo neh Jeroboam laklo ah hnin takuem caemtloek om.
And there was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam, during all the days.
31 Rehoboam te a napa rhoek taengla a khoem uh vaengah tah David khopuei kah a napa rhoek taengah a up. A manu ming he Ammoni Naamah ni. Te phoeiah anih yueng la a capa Abijam te manghai.
And Rehoboam slept with his fathers, and he was buried with them in the city of David. And his mother’s name was Naamah, an Ammonite. And his son Abijam reigned in his place.
