1 Ar-ari 12
1 Napan ni Rehoboam idiay Sikem, ta mapan dagiti amin nga Israelita idiay Sikem a mangisaad kenkuana nga ari.
Rehoboam went to Shechem, for all Israel had come to Shechem to make him king.
2 Ket napasamak a nadamag daytoy ni Jeroboam nga anak ni Nabat (gapu ta adda pay laeng isuna idiay Egipto, a nagkamanganna idi linibasanna ni Ari Solomon; agnanaed ni Jeroboam idiay Egipto).
When Jeroboam the son of Nebat heard of it (for he was yet in Egypt, where he had fled from the presence of King Solomon, and Jeroboam lived in Egypt;
3 Isu a nangibaonda ket pinaayabanda isuna, ket dimteng ni Jeroboam ken ti entero a gimong ti Israel; kinasaoda ni Rehoboam a kinunada,
and they sent and called him), Jeroboam and all the assembly of Israel came, and spoke to Rehoboam, saying,
4 “Pinagbalin ti amam a nadagsen ti sangolmi. Ita ngarud, panam-ayennakami manipud iti narigat a trabaho nga inted ti amam, ken palag-anem ti nadagsen a sangol nga inkabilna kadakami, ket agserbikaminto kenka.”
“Your father made our yoke difficult. Now therefore make the hard service of your father, and his heavy yoke which he put on us, lighter, and we will serve you.”
5 Kinuna ni Rehoboam kadakuada, “Ikkandak iti tallo nga aldaw; kalpasanna agsublikayonto kaniak.” Isu a pimmanaw dagiti tattao.
He said to them, “Depart for three days, then come back to me.” So the people departed.
6 Nakiuman ni Ari Rehoboam kadagiti panglakayen a nagserbi kenni Solomon nga amana idi sibibiag pay isuna; kinunana, “Ania ti maibalakadyo kaniak nga isungbatko kadagidiay a tattao?”
King Rehoboam took counsel with the old men who had stood before Solomon his father while he yet lived, saying, “What counsel do you give me to answer these people?”
7 Nagsaoda kenkuana a kinunada, “No agbalinka ita nga adipen kadagitoy a tattao ken pagserbiam ida, ken sungbatam ida babaen iti panagsaom iti nasayaat kadakuada, agbalindanto nga adipenmo iti agnanayon.”
They replied, “If you will be a servant to this people today, and will serve them, and answer them with good words, then they will be your servants forever.”
8 Ngem saan nga inkankano ni Rehoboam ti balakad dagiti panglakayen nga imbagada kenkuana, ket nakiuman kadagiti agtutubo a lallaki a kinaubinganna, a mammagbaga kenkuana.
But he abandoned the counsel of the old men which they had given him, and took counsel with the young men who had grown up with him, who stood before him.
9 Kinunana kadakuada, “Ania ti maibalakadyo kaniak, tapno masungbatantayo dagiti tattao a nagdamag kaniak a kunada, 'Palag-anem ti sangol nga inkabil ti amam kadakami'?”
He said to them, “What counsel do you give, that we may answer these people who have spoken to me, saying, ‘Make the yoke that your father put on us lighter’?”
10 Simmungbat kenkuana dagiti agtutubo a lallaki a kinaubingan ni Rehoboam, kinunada, “Ibagam kadagidiay a tattao a nangibaga kenka a pinadagsen ti amam a ni Solomon ti sangolda ket masapul a palag-anem. Rumbeng nga ibagam kadakuada, '“Napuspuskol ti kikitko ngem iti siket ti amak.
The young men who had grown up with him said to him, “Tell these people who spoke to you, saying, ‘Your father made our yoke heavy, but make it lighter to us’—tell them, ‘My little finger is thicker than my father’s waist.
11 Isu nga ita, no pay pinaawitnakayo ti amak iti nadagsen a sangol, nayunakto ti sangolyo. Dinusanakayo ti amak babaen kadagiti saplit, ngem dusaenkayonto babaen iti saplit a nasaksakit pay ngenm iti kagat dagiti manggagama.”
Now my father burdened you with a heavy yoke, but I will add to your yoke. My father chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.’”
12 Napan ngarud ni Jeroboam ken dagiti amin a tattao kenni Rehoboam iti maikatlo nga aldaw, kas naibalakad ti ari idi kinunana, “Agsublikayonto kaniak iti maikatlo nga aldaw.”
So Jeroboam and all the people came to Rehoboam the third day, as the king asked, saying, “Come to me again the third day.”
13 Nagubsang ti panangsungbat ti ari kadagiti tattao ket saanna inkankano ti pammagbaga dagiti panglakayen nga imbagada kenkuana.
The king answered the people roughly, and abandoned the counsel of the old men which they had given him,
14 Nagsao isuna kadakuada ket sinurotna ti pammagbaga dagiti agtutubo a lallaki; kinunana, “Pinaawitannakayo ti amak iti nadagsen a sangol, ngem nayunakto ti sangolyo. Dinusanakayo ti amak babaen kadagiti saplit, ngem dusaenkayonto babaen iti saplit a nasaksakit pay ngem iti kagat dagiti manggagamma.”
and spoke to them according to the counsel of the young men, saying, “My father made your yoke heavy, but I will add to your yoke. My father chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.”
15 Saan ngarud nga impangag ti ari dagiti tattao, ta daytoy ti pagbaliwan dagiti pasamak nga inyeg ni Yahweh, tapno ipatungpalna dagiti sasaona nga imbagana babaen kenni Ahija a Silohita kenni Jeroboam nga anak ni Nabat.
So the king didn’t listen to the people; for it was a thing brought about from Yahweh, that he might establish his word, which Yahweh spoke by Ahijah the Shilonite to Jeroboam the son of Nebat.
16 Idi makita ti entero nga Israel a saan ida nga impangag ti ari, simmungbat dagiti tattao kenkuana ket kinunada, “Ania aya ti bingaytayo kenni David? Awan ti tawidtayo iti anak ni Jesse! Agawidkayo kadagiti toldayo, Israel. Ita makaammokan iti bukodmo a pagtaengan, David.” Isu a nagsubli ti Israel kadagiti toldada.
When all Israel saw that the king didn’t listen to them, the people answered the king, saying, “What portion have we in David? We don’t have an inheritance in the son of Jesse. To your tents, Israel! Now see to your own house, David.” So Israel departed to their tents.
17 Ngem iti biang dagiti tattao ti Israel nga agnanaed kadagiti siudad ti Juda, nagbalin nga arida ni Rehoboam.
But as for the children of Israel who lived in the cities of Judah, Rehoboam reigned over them.
18 Ket imbaon ni ari Rehoboam ni Adoram, a mangimatmaton iti nainkapilitan a panagtrabaho, ngem binatbato isuna ti entero nga Israel agingga a natay. Timmaray a dagus ni Ari Rehoboam babaen iti karwahena ket napan idiay Jerusalem.
Then King Rehoboam sent Adoram, who was over the men subject to forced labor; and all Israel stoned him to death with stones. King Rehoboam hurried to get himself up to his chariot, to flee to Jerusalem.
19 Isu a bumusbusoren ti Israel iti balay ni David agpapan ita.
So Israel rebelled against David’s house to this day.
20 Napasamak nga idi nangeg ti entero nga Israel a nagsubli ni Jeroboam, nangibaonda iti mapan mangayab kenkuana iti gimongda ket pinagbalinda isuna nga ari iti entero nga Israel. Awan ti uray maysa a simmurot iti pamilia ni David, malaksid laeng iti tribu ti Juda.
When all Israel heard that Jeroboam had returned, they sent and called him to the congregation, and made him king over all Israel. There was no one who followed David’s house, except for the tribe of Judah only.
21 Idi simmangpet ni Rehoboam idiay Jerusalem, inummongna amin dagiti tattao ti Juda ken ti tribu ni Benjamin; adda iti 180, 000 a soldado a napili, tapno makiranget kadagiti tattao ti Israel, tapno maisubli ti pagarian kenni Rehoboam nga anak ni Solomon.
When Rehoboam had come to Jerusalem, he assembled all the house of Judah and the tribe of Benjamin, a hundred and eighty thousand chosen men who were warriors, to fight against the house of Israel, to bring the kingdom again to Rehoboam the son of Solomon.
22 Ngem immay ti sao ti Dios kenni Semaias, a tao ti Dios; kinunana,
But the word of God came to Shemaiah the man of God, saying,
23 “Agsaoka kenni Rehoboam nga anak ni Solomon, nga ari ti Juda, iti amin a tattao ti Juda ken Benjamin, ken kadagiti dadduma pay a tattao; kunaem,
“Speak to Rehoboam the son of Solomon, king of Judah, and to all the house of Judah and Benjamin, and to the rest of the people, saying,
24 kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh: Masapul a saanyo a rauten wenno karanget dagiti kakabsatyo a tattao ti Israel. Masapul nga agsubli ti tunggal maysa iti pagtaenganna, ta dagitoy a pasamak ket naaramid babaen kaniak.”' Isu nga impangagda ti sao ni Yahweh ket nagsublida ken nagawidda, ket nagtulnogda iti saona.
‘Yahweh says, “You shall not go up or fight against your brothers, the children of Israel. Everyone return to his house; for this thing is from me.”’” So they listened to Yahweh’s word, and returned and went their way, according to Yahweh’s word.
25 Ket imbangon ni Jeroboam ti Sikem idiay turod a pagillian ti Efraim, ket nagnaed sadiay. Rimmuar isuna sadiay ket imbangonna ti Penuel.
Then Jeroboam built Shechem in the hill country of Ephraim, and lived in it; and he went out from there and built Penuel.
26 Kinuna ni Jeroboam iti nakemna, “Ita agsublinto ti pagarian iti balay ni David.
Jeroboam said in his heart, “Now the kingdom will return to David’s house.
27 No dagitoy a tattao ket mapanda mangidatag kadagiti daton iti templo ni Yahweh idiay Jerusalem, ket agsublinto ngarud ti puso dagitoy a tattao iti apoda, kenni Rehoboam nga ari ti Juda. Papatayendakto ket agsublida kenni Rehoboam nga ari ti Juda.”
If this people goes up to offer sacrifices in Yahweh’s house at Jerusalem, then the heart of this people will turn again to their lord, even to Rehoboam king of Judah; and they will kill me, and return to Rehoboam king of Judah.”
28 Isu a dimmawat ni Ari Jeroboam iti balakad ket nangaramid iti dua a sinan-baka a balitok; kinunana kadagiti tattao, “Narigat unay para kadakayo ti mapan idiay Jerusalem. Israel, adtoy dagiti ti diosyo a nangiruar kadakayo manipud iti daga ti Egipto.”
So the king took counsel, and made two calves of gold; and he said to them, “It is too much for you to go up to Jerusalem. Look and behold your gods, Israel, which brought you up out of the land of Egypt!”
29 Inkabilna ti maysa idiay Betel ken ti sabali idiay Dan.
He set the one in Bethel, and the other he put in Dan.
30 Isu a daytoy nga aramid ket nagbalin a basol. Napan dagiti tattao iti maysa wenno iti maysa, agingga idiay Dan.
This thing became a sin, for the people went even as far as Dan to worship before the one there.
31 Nangaramid ni Jeroboam kadagiti templo ken kadagiti disso a pagdaydayawan; nangdutok pay isuna kadagiti padi manipud kadagiti amin a tattao, a saan a nagtaud kadagiti putot ni Levi.
He made houses of high places, and made priests from among all the people, who were not of the sons of Levi.
32 Nangituding ni Jeroboam iti panagrambak iti maikawalo a bulan, iti maikasangapulo ket lima nga aldaw ti bulan, a kas iti panagrambak idiay Juda, ket napan isuna iti altar. Kasta met laeng ti inaramidna idiay Betel, nangidatdaton isuna kadagiti sinan-baka nga inaramidna, ken insaadna dagiti padi idiay Betel kadagiti disso a pagdaydayawan nga inaramidna.
Jeroboam ordained a feast in the eighth month, on the fifteenth day of the month, like the feast that is in Judah, and he went up to the altar. He did so in Bethel, sacrificing to the calves that he had made, and he placed in Bethel the priests of the high places that he had made.
33 Napan ni Jereboam iti altar nga inaramidna idiay Betel iti maikasangapulo ket lima nga aldaw iti maikawalo a bulan, iti bulan a pinanggepna iti mismo a panunotna; nangituding iti panagrambak para kadagiti tattao ti Israel ken napan iti altar tapno mangpuor iti insenso.
He went up to the altar which he had made in Bethel on the fifteenth day in the eighth month, even in the month which he had devised of his own heart; and he ordained a feast for the children of Israel, and went up to the altar to burn incense.
