< 2 Chronicles 10 >

1 Rehoboam went to Shechem, for all Israel had come to Shechem to make him king.
Le nimb’e Sekeme añe t’i Rekoboame; aa naho nivotrake e Sekeme ao iaby t’Israele hanao aze mpanjaka,
2 When Jeroboam the son of Nebat heard of it (for he was in Egypt, where he had fled from the presence of King Solomon), Jeroboam returned out of Egypt.
naho jinanji’ Iarovame ana’ i Nebate—ie e Mitsraime añe ami’ty niorata’e tsy hia­trefa’e i Selomò mpanjakay fe nimpoly boake Mitsraime t’Iarovame,
3 They sent and called him; and Jeroboam and all Israel came, and they spoke to Rehoboam, saying,
ie nampisangitrife’ iereo—le nimb’eo t’Iarovame naho Israele iaby nisaontsy amy Rekoboame ami’ty hoe:
4 “Your father made our yoke grievous. Now therefore make the grievous service of your father and his heavy yoke which he put on us, lighter, and we will serve you.”
Na­no­en-drae’o gañe o joka’aio, aa le hamaivaño o fitoroñañe nasampen-drae’o ama’aio naho i joka’e nampijinie’e anaiy vaho hitoroñe azo zahay.
5 He said to them, “Come again to me after three days.” So the people departed.
Le hoe re am’ iereo: Mimpolia mb’amako naho modo ty telo andro. Aa le nienga ondatio.
6 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 about how to answer these people?”
Le nisafiry amo androanavy nijohañe añatrefa’ i Selomò rae’e t’ie niveloñeo t’i Rekoboame ami’ty hoe: Ino ty hanoroa’ areo ahy havaleko ondaty retoañe?
7 They spoke to him, saying, “If you are kind to these people, please them, and speak good words to them, then they will be your servants forever.”
Le nisaontsia’ iareo ty hoe: Naho tretreze’o ondaty retoa naho hampi­falè’o vaho isaontsia’o volan-tsoa, le ho mpitoro’o nainai’e.
8 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.
Fe napo’e i fañereta’ o androanavioy, le nitsò-pañahi’ o ajalahy nindre nibeizeñe ama’e mpijohañe aña­trefa’eo.
9 He said to them, “What counsel do you give, that we may give an answer to these people, who have spoken to me, saying, ‘Make the yoke that your father put on us lighter’?”
Le hoe re am’ iereo: Ino ty hatoro’ areo ahy, hamalean-tika ondaty nanao amako ty hoe: Hamaivaño i joka nampijinien-drae’o anaiy?
10 The young men who had grown up with him spoke to him, saying, “Thus you shall tell the people who spoke to you, saying, ‘Your father made our yoke heavy, but make it lighter on us;’ thus you shall say to them, ‘My little finger is thicker than my father’s waist.
Le hoe ty saontsi’ o ajalahy nindre nibey ama’eo: Ty hoe ty hatao’o am’ondaty nanao ama’o: Nampavesaren-drae’o o joka’aio, aa le hamaivaño ama’ay, Ty hoe ty hanoa’o: Boda’e te aman-tohan-draeko ty anakikiko.
11 Now whereas my father burdened you with a heavy yoke, I will add to your yoke. My father chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.’”
Aa kanao nampilogologoen-draeko joka mavesatse, le ho tompeako o joka’ areoo; nilafaen-draeko am-pifiake, fa zaho ka ty handilo an-kalafiañe.
12 So Jeroboam and all the people came to Rehoboam the third day, as the king asked, saying, “Come to me again the third day.”
Aa le nimb’amy Rekoboame mb’eo amy andro fahateloy t’Iarovame naho ondaty iabio, amy nafe’ i mpanjakaiy ami’ty hoe: Mimpolia mb’etoa ami’ty andro fahatelo.
13 The king answered them roughly; and King Rehoboam abandoned the counsel of the old men,
Fe nanoiñe an-tsotrake i mpanjakay; nifarie’ i mpanjakay ty fanoroa’ i androanavy rey,
14 and spoke to them after the counsel of the young men, saying, “My father made your yoke heavy, but I will add to it. My father chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.”
vaho i entañe natoro’ i ajalahy reiy ty nanoe’e, ami’ty hoe; Nampijinie’e joka mavesatse, fe ho tompeako; nilafaen-draeko am-pifiake fa zaho ka an-kalafiañe.
15 So the king did not listen to the people; for it was brought about by God, that the LORD might establish his word, which he spoke by Ahijah the Shilonite to Jeroboam the son of Nebat.
Aa le tsy hinao’ i mpanjakay ondatio, amy t’ie fampivalihan’ Añahare, hampijadoña’ Iehovà i tsara nitsa­rae’e am-pità’ i Akiià nte-Silone am’ Iarovame ana’ i Nebatey.
16 When all Israel saw that the king did not listen to them, the people answered the king, saying, “What portion do we have in David? We do not have an inheritance in the son of Jesse! Every man to your tents, Israel! Now see to your own house, David.” So all Israel departed to their tents.
Aa ie nioni’ Israele iaby te tsy nañaoñe iareo i mpanjakay, le hoe ty natoi’ ondatio i mpanjakay: Ino ty anjara’ay amy Davide? Toe tsy aman-dova amy ana’ Iisaiy zahay; songa mb’an-kiboho’e mb’eo, ry Israele; le ambeno i anjomba’oy henane zao ry Davide, vaho hene nienga mb’ an-kiboho’e mb’eo t’Israele.
17 But as for the children of Israel who lived in the cities of Judah, Rehoboam reigned over them.
Fe o ana’ Israele nimoneñe an-drova’ Iehodao, mbe nifehe’ i Rekoboame.
18 Then King Rehoboam sent Hadoram, who was over the men subject to forced labor; and the children of Israel stoned him to death with stones. King Rehoboam hurried to get himself up to his chariot, to flee to Jerusalem.
Nirahe’ i Rekoboame amy zao t’i Hadorame mpifehe i habay; f’ie rinetsa’ o ana’ Israeleo vato, le nihomake. Aa le nihitrihitry mb’amy sarete’ey mb’eo t’i Rekoboame mpanjaka, niherereake mb’e Ierosalaime añe.
19 So Israel rebelled against David’s house to this day.
Aa le niola amy anjomba’ i Davidey t’Israele ampara’ te henane.
