历代志下 10
1 罗波安往示剑去，因为以色列人都到了示剑，要立他作王。
Forsothe Roboam yede forth in to Sichem; for al Israel came togidere thidur to make hym kyng.
2 尼八的儿子耶罗波安先前躲避所罗门王，逃往埃及，住在那里；他听见这事，就从埃及回来。
And whanne Jeroboam, the sone of Nabath, that was in Egipt, `for he fledde thidur bifor Salomon, hadde herd this, he turnyde ayen anoon.
3 以色列人打发人去请他，他就和以色列众人来见罗波安，对他说：
And thei clepiden hym, and he cam with al Israel, and thei spaken to Roboam, and seiden,
4 “你父亲使我们负重轭做苦工，现在求你使我们做的苦工负的重轭轻松些，我们就事奉你。”
Thi fadir oppresside vs with ful hard yok; comaunde thou liytere thingis than thi fader, that settide on vs a greuouse seruage; and releese thou a litil of `the birthun, that we serue thee. And he seide,
5 罗波安对他们说：“第三日再来见我吧！”民就去了。
After thre daies turne ye ayen to me. And whanne the puple was goon, he took counsel with elde men,
6 罗波安之父所罗门在世的日子，有侍立在他面前的老年人，罗波安王和他们商议，说：“你们给我出个什么主意，我好回复这民。”
that stoden bifor his fadir Salomon, while he lyuyde yit, and seide, What counsel yyuen ye, that Y answere to the puple?
7 老年人对他说：“王若恩待这民，使他们喜悦，用好话回复他们，他们就永远作王的仆人。”
And thei seiden to hym, If thou plesist this puple, and makist hem softe bi meke wordis, thei schulen serue thee in al tyme.
8 王却不用老年人给他出的主意，就和那些与他一同长大、在他面前侍立的少年人商议，
And he forsook the counsel of elde men, and bigan to trete with yonge men, that weren nurischid with hym, and weren in his cumpenye.
9 说：“这民对我说：‘你父亲使我们负重轭，求你使我们轻松些’；你们给我出个什么主意，我好回复他们。”
And he seide to hem, What semeth to you? ether what owe Y answere to this puple, that seide to me, Releese thou the yok, which thi fadir puttide on vs?
10 那同他长大的少年人说：“这民对王说：‘你父亲使我们负重轭，求你使我们轻松些’；王要对他们如此说：‘我的小拇指比我父亲的腰还粗；
And thei answeriden, as yonge men and nurschyd with hym in delicis, and seiden, Thus thou schalt speke to the puple that seide to thee, Thi fadir made greuouse oure yok, releese thou; and thus thou schalt answere to hem, My leeste fyngur is gretter than the leendis of my fader;
11 我父亲使你们负重轭，我必使你们负更重的轭；我父亲用鞭子责打你们，我要用蝎子鞭责打你们。’”
my fadir puttide on you a greuouse yok, and Y schal leie to a gretter birthun; my fadir beet you with scourgis, forsothe Y schal bete you with `scorpiouns, that is, hard knottid roopis.
12 耶罗波安和众百姓遵着罗波安王所说“你们第三日再来见我”的那话，第三日他们果然来了。
Therfor Jeroboam and al the puple cam to Roboam in the thridde dai, as he hadde comaundid to hem.
13 罗波安王用严厉的话回复他们，不用老年人所出的主意，
And `the kyng answeride harde thingis, after that he hadde forsake the counsel of the eldere men,
14 照着少年人所出的主意对他们说：“我父亲使你们负重轭，我必使你们负更重的轭；我父亲用鞭子责打你们，我要用蝎子鞭责打你们。”
and he spak bi the wille of the yonge men, My fadir puttide on you a greuouse yok, which Y schal make greuousere; my fadir beet you with scourgis, sotheli Y schal bete you with scorpiouns.
15 王不肯依从百姓；这事乃出于 神，为要应验耶和华借示罗人亚希雅对尼八儿子耶罗波安所说的话。
And he assentide not to the preieris of the puple; for it was the wille of God, that his word schulde be fillid, which he hadde spoke bi the hond of Ahie of Silo to Jeroboam, sone of Nabath.
16 以色列众民见王不依从他们，就对王说： 我们与大卫有什么分儿呢？ 与耶西的儿子并没有关涉！ 以色列人哪，各回各家去吧！ 大卫家啊，自己顾自己吧！ 于是，以色列众人都回自己家里去了。
Sotheli whanne the kyng seide hardere thingis, al the puple spak thus to hym, No part is to vs in Dauid, nether eritage in the sone of Isai; Israel, turne thou ayen in to thi tabernaclis, sotheli thou, Dauid, feede thin hows. And Israel yede in to hise tabernaclis.
17 惟独住在犹大城邑的以色列人，罗波安仍作他们的王。
Forsothe Roboam regnede on the sones of Israel, that dwelliden in the citees of Juda.
18 罗波安王差遣掌管服苦之人的哈多兰往以色列人那里去，以色列人就用石头打死他。罗波安王急忙上车，逃回耶路撒冷去了。
And kyng Roboam sente Adhuram, that was souereyn ouer the tributis; and the sones of Israel stonyden hym, and he was deed. Certis kyng Roboam hastide to stie in to the chare, and fledde in to Jerusalem.
19 这样，以色列人背叛大卫家，直到今日。
And Israel yede awei fro the hows of Dauid `til to this dai. Forsothe it was doon, whanne al Israel hadde herd, that Jeroboam turnede ayen, thei senten, and clepiden hym, whanne the cumpeny was gaderid, and thei ordeyneden him king on al Israel; and no man, outakun the lynage of Juda aloone, suede `the hows of Dauid.
