But the word of the LORD came to Shemaiah the man of God, saying,
3 “Faɗa wa Rehobowam ɗan Solomon sarkin Yahuda da kuma dukan Isra’ilawan da suke a Yahuda da Benyamin,
Speak unto Rehoboam the son of Solomon, king of Judah, and to all Israel in Judah and Benjamin, saying,
4 ‘Ga abin da Ubangiji ya ce kada ku haura don ku yi yaƙi da’yan’uwanku. Ku tafi gida kowannenku, gama wannan yi na ne.’” Saboda haka suka yi biyayya ga maganar Ubangiji suka kuma koma daga takawa don yaƙi da Yerobowam.
Thus saith the LORD, Ye shall not go up, nor fight against your brethren: return every man to his house: for this thing is done of me. And they obeyed the words of the LORD, and returned from going against Jeroboam.
