< 2 Chronicles 10 >

1 And Roboam went to Sichem: for thither all Israel were assembled, to make him king.
Rehoboamu sì lọ sí Ṣekemu nítorí gbogbo àwọn ọmọ Israẹli ti lọ síbẹ̀ láti fi jẹ ọba.
2 And when Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who was in Egypt, (for he was fled thither from Solomon, ) heard it, forthwith he returned.
Nígbà tí Jeroboamu ọmọ Nebati gbọ́ ẹni ti ó wà ní Ejibiti, níbi tí ó ti sá kúrò lọ́dọ̀ ọba Solomoni ó sì padà láti Ejibiti.
3 And they sent for him, and he came with all Israel, and they spoke to Roboam, saying:
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni nígbà náà ó sì ránṣẹ́ sí Jeroboamu àti òun àti gbogbo àwọn Israẹli lọ sí ọ̀dọ̀ Rehoboamu wọ́n sì wí fún pé,
4 Thy father oppressed us with a most grievous yoke, do thou govern us with a lighter hand than thy father, who laid upon us a heavy servitude, and ease some thing of the burden, that we may serve thee.
“Baba rẹ gbé àjàgà tí ó wúwo lórí wa, ṣùgbọ́n nísinsin yìí ìwọ mú un fúyẹ́, iṣẹ́ líle àti àjàgà wúwo tí ó gbé ka orí wa, àwa yóò sì sìn ọ́.”
5 And he said to them: Come to me again after three days. And when the people were gone,
Rehoboamu sì dáhùn pé, “Ẹ padà wá sọ́dọ̀ mi lẹ́yìn ọjọ́ mẹ́ta.” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni àwọn ènìyàn náà sì lọ.
6 He took counsel with the ancients, who had stood before his father Solomon, while he yet lived, saying: What counsel give you to me, that I may answer the people?
Nígbà náà ni ọba Rehoboamu fi ọ̀ràn lọ̀ àwọn àgbàgbà tí ó ti ń sin baba rẹ̀ Solomoni nígbà ayé rẹ̀, ó sì bi wọ́n léèrè pe, “Báwo ni ẹ̀yin yóò ṣe gbà mí ní ìmọ̀ràn láti dá àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí lóhùn?”
7 And they said to him: If thou please this people, and soothe them with kind words, they will be thy servants for ever.
Wọ́n sì dáhùn, “Tí ìwọ yóò bá ṣe rere sí àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí kí o sì ṣe ìre fún wọn, kí o sì fún wọn ní ìdáhùn rere, wọn yóò sì máa jẹ́ ìránṣẹ́ rẹ nígbà gbogbo.”
8 But he forsook the counsel of the ancients, and began to treat with the young men, that had been brought up with him, and were in his train.
Ṣùgbọ́n Rehoboamu kọ ìmọ̀ràn náà tí àwọn àgbàgbà fi fún un, ó sì fi ọ̀rọ̀ lọ àwọn ọmọ ọkùnrin tí ó ti dàgbàsókè pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ tí wọ́n sì ń dúró níwájú rẹ̀.
9 And he said to them: What seemeth good to you? or what shall I answer this people, who have said to me: Ease the yoke which thy father laid upon us?
Ó sì béèrè lọ́wọ́ wọn pé, “Kí ni ìmọ̀ràn yín? Báwo ni kí a ṣe dá àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí tí wọ́n wí fún mi pé, ‘Mú kí àjàgà tí baba rẹ gbé lé wa kí ó fúyẹ́ díẹ̀.’”
10 But they answered as young men, and brought up with him in pleasures, and said: Thus shalt thou speak to the people, that said to thee: Thy father made our yoke heavy, do thou ease it: thus shalt thou answer them: My little finger is thicker than the loins of my father.
Àwọn ọ̀dọ́mọdé tí ó ti dàgbà pẹ̀lú rẹ dá a lóhùn pé, “Sọ fún àwọn ènìyàn tí ó wí fún ọ wí pé, ‘Baba rẹ gbé àjàgà wúwo lórí wa, ṣùgbọ́n mú àjàgà wa fúyẹ́,’ wí fún wọn pé, ‘Ìka ọwọ́ mi kékeré, ó nípọn ju ìbàdí baba mi lọ.
11 My father laid upon you a heavy yoke, and I will add more weight to it: my father beat you with scourges, but I will beat you with scorpions.
Baba mi gbé àjàgà wúwo ka orí yín; èmi yóò sì tún mú kí ó wúwo sì í. Baba mi fi pàṣán nà yín; èmi yóò sì nà yín pẹ̀lú àkéekèe.’”
12 So Jeroboam, and all the people came to Roboam the third day, as he commanded them.
Ní ọjọ́ kẹta Jeroboamu àti gbogbo ènìyàn sì padà sí ọ̀dọ̀ Rehoboamu, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọba ti sọ, “Ẹ padà wá sọ́dọ̀ mi ní ọjọ́ kẹta.”
13 And the king answered roughly, leaving the counsel of the ancients.
Nígbà náà ni ọba dá wọn lóhùn ní ọ̀nà líle. Rehoboamu ọba sì kọ̀ ìmọ̀ràn àwọn àgbàgbà sílẹ̀,
14 And he spoke according to the advice of the young men: My father laid upon you a heavy yoke, which I will make heavier: my father beat you with scourges, but I will beat you with scorpions.
Ó sì tẹ̀lé ìmọ̀ràn àwọn ọ̀dọ́mọdé, ó sì wí pé, “Baba mi mú kí àjàgà yín wúwo; èmi yóò sì mú kí ó wúwo jù bẹ́ẹ̀ lọ. Baba mi nà yín pẹ̀lú pàṣán; èmi yóò sì nà yín pẹ̀lú àkéekèe.”
15 And he condescended not to the people’s requests: for it was the will of God, that his word might be fulfilled which he had spoken by the hand of Ahias the Silonite to Jeroboam the son of Nabat.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ọba kò sì fetísí àwọn ènìyàn, nítorí ìṣẹ̀lẹ̀ wọ̀nyí wá láti ọ̀dọ̀ Ọlọ́run ni. Láti mú ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa ṣẹ tí a ti sọ fún Jeroboamu ọmọ Nebati nípasẹ̀ Ahijah ará Ṣilo.
16 And all the people upon the king’s speaking roughly, said thus unto him: We have no part in David, nor inheritance in the son of Isai. Return to thy dwellings, O Israel, and do thou, O David, feed thy own house. And Israel went away to their dwellings.
Nígbà tí gbogbo Israẹli rí i wí pé ọba kọ̀ láti gbọ́ tiwọn, wọ́n sì dá ọba lóhùn wí pé, “Ìpín kí ní a ní nínú Dafidi, ìní wo ni a ní nínú ọmọ Jese? Ẹ lọ sí àgọ́ yín, ẹ̀yin Israẹli! Bojútó ilé rẹ, ìwọ Dafidi!” Bẹ́ẹ̀ ní gbogbo àwọn ọmọ Israẹli lọ sí ilé wọn.
17 But Roboam reigned over the children of Israel that dwelt in the cities of Juda.
Ṣùgbọ́n ní ti àwọn ọmọ Israẹli tí ń gbé ní ìlú Juda, Rehoboamu ń jẹ ọba lórí wọn.
18 And king Roboam sent Aduram, who was over the tributes, and the children of Israel stoned him, and he died: and king Roboam made haste to gee up into his chariot, and fled into Jerusalem.
Ọba Rehoboamu rán Adoniramu jáde, ẹni tí ó wà ní ìkáwọ́ iṣẹ́ onírúurú, ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ọmọ Israẹli sọ ọ́ ní òkúta pa. Ọba Rehoboamu, gbìyànjú láti dé inú kẹ̀kẹ́ rẹ̀ ó sì sálọ sí Jerusalẹmu.
19 And Israel revolted from the house of David unto this day.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Israẹli sì wà ní ìṣọ̀tẹ̀ lórí ilé Dafidi títí fi di òní yìí.
