< 1 Kings 12 >

1 Rehoboam went to Shechem, for all Israel had come to Shechem to make him king.
Ary Rehoboama nankany Sekema, fa tany no efa nalehan’ ny Isiraely rehetra hampanjaka azy.
2 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;
Koa raha nandre izany Jeroboama, zanak’ i Nebata (fa izy mbola tany Egypta, izay nalehany tamin’ izy nandositra niala teo anatrehan’ i Solomona mpanjaka;
3 and they sent and called him), Jeroboam and all the assembly of Israel came, and spoke to Rehoboam, saying,
ka dia naniraka naka azy ny olona), dia tonga izy sy ny fiangonana, dia ny Isiraely rehetra, ka niteny tamin-dRehoboama hoe:
4 “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.”
Rainao dia nampitondra zioga mavesatra anay, fa inty kosa mby aminao ka mba hamaivano ny fanompoana mafy tamin-drainao sy ny zioga mavesatra izay nataony taminay, dia hanompo anao izahay.
5 He said to them, “Depart for three days, then come back to me.” So the people departed.
Fa hoy kosa izy taminy: Mandehana aloha, ka raha afaka hateloana, dia mankanesa atỳ amiko indray. Dia lasa ny olona.
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 to answer these people?”
Ary Rehoboama mpanjaka naka hevitra tamin’ ny zoki-olona izay nitoetra teo anatrehan’ i Solomona rainy fony fahavelony ka nanao hoe: Ahoana no hevitra omenareo havaly ny vahoaka?
7 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.”
Dia hoy ireo taminy: Raha mety ho mpanompon’ ny vahoaka ianao izao ka hanompo azy sy hanao teny mora aminy, dia ho mpanomponao mandrakizay izy.
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.
Nefa nolavin-dRehoboama ny hevitra nomen’ ireo zoki-olona azy, dia naka hevitra tamin’ ny tovolahy izay indray nihira taminy sady efa nitoetra teo anatrehany izy
9 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’?”
ka nanao taminy hoe: Ahoana kosa no mba hevitra omenareo havalintsika ny vahoaka izay efa niteny tamiko hoe: Hamaivano ny zioga izay nataon-drainao taminay
10 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.
Ary ireo tovolahy indray nihira taminy nanao taminy hoe: Izao no lazao amin’ ny vahoaka izay niteny taminao hoe: Rainao nampitondra zioga mavesatra anay; fa inty kosa mby aminao ka mba hamaivano aminay izany, izao no lazao aminy: Ny ankihikeliko dia lehibe noho ny valahan’ ny raiko;
11 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.’”
koa raha nampitondra zioga mavesatra anareo ny raiko, izaho kosa dia mainka hanampy ny zioga ho entinareo; kotopia no namaizan’ ny raiko anareo, fa maingoka fikapohana kosa no hamaizako anareo.
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.”
Ary Jeroboama sy ny vahoaka rehetra nankany amin-dRehoboama tamin’ ny andro fahatelo, araka ilay nolazain’ ny mpanjaka hoe: Mankanesa atỳ amiko indray amin’ ny andro fahatelo.
13 The king answered the people roughly, and abandoned the counsel of the old men which they had given him,
Ary ny mpanjaka nanao teny mafy tamin’ ny olona, fa nandà ny saina nomen’ ireo zoki-olona azy izy
14 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.”
ka niteny taminy araka ny hevitra nomen’ ireo tovolahy hoe: Ny raiko dia nampitondra zioga mavesatra anareo, fa izaho kosa mainka hanampy ny zioga ho entinareo, kotopia no namazain’ ny raiko anareo, fa maingoka fikapohana kosa no hamaizako anareo.
15 So the king didn’t listen to the people; for it was a thing brought about from the LORD, that he might establish his word, which the LORD spoke by Ahijah the Shilonite to Jeroboam the son of Nebat.
Koa dia tsy nihaino ny olona ny mpanjaka; fa avy tamin’ i Jehovah izany zavatra izany hahatanteraka ny teniny izay nampilazainy an’ i Ahia Silonita tamin’ i Jeroboama, zanak’ i Nebata.
16 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.
Ary nony hitan’ ny Isiraely rehetra fa tsy nihaino azy ny mpanjaka, dia namaly ny mpanjaka ny vahoaka ka nanao hoe: Inona moa no anjaranay amin’ i Davida? Tsy manana lova amin’ ny zanak’ i Jese izahay; samia mody any an-dainy avy, ry Isiraely e; ankehitriny tandremo ny taranakao, ry Davida ô. Dia samy nody ho any an-dainy avy ny Isiraely.
17 But as for the children of Israel who lived in the cities of Judah, Rehoboam reigned over them.
Fa ny Zanak’ Isiraely izay nonina tany an-tanànan’ ny Joda ihany no nanjakan-dRehoboama.
18 Then King Rehoboam sent Adoram, who was over the men subject to forced labour; and all Israel stoned him to death with stones. King Rehoboam hurried to get himself up to his chariot, to flee to Jerusalem.
Ary dia naniraka an’ i Adorama, komandin’ ny mpanao fanompoana, Rehoboama mpanjaka, nefa ny Isiraely rehetra nitora-bato azy, ka maty izy. Dia niezaka faingana nankeo amin’ ny kalesiny Rehoboama mpanjaka handositra ho any Jerosalema.
19 So Israel rebelled against David’s house to this day.
Ka dia niodina tamin’ ny taranak’ i Davida ny Isiraely mandraka androany.
20 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.
Ary rehefa ren’ ny Isiraely rehetra fa efa tafaverina indray Jeroboama, dia naniraka naka azy ho ao amin’ ny fivoriana izy ka nampanjaka azy tamin’ ny Isiraely rehetra; dia tsy nisy nanaraka ny taranak’ i Davida afa-tsy ny firenen’ i Joda ihany.
21 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.
Ary nony tonga tany Jerosalema Rehoboama, dia novoriny ny taranak’ i Joda rehetra mbamin’ ny firenen’ i Benjamina, dia miaramila valo alina amby iray hetsy voafantina, hiady amin’ ny taranak’ Isiraely hampody ny fanjakana indray ho an-dRehoboama, zanak’ i Solomona.
22 But the word of God came to Shemaiah the man of God, saying,
Kanjo tonga tamin’ i Semaia, lehilahin’ Andriamanitra, kosa ny tenin’ Andriamanitra nanao hoe
23 “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,
Mitenena amin-dRehoboama, zanak’ i Solomona, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, sy amin’ ny taranak’ i Joda sy Benjamina rehetra ary amin’ ny vahoaka sisa hoe:
24 ‘The LORD 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 the LORD’s word, and returned and went their way, according to the LORD’s word.
Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Aza mandeha hiady amin’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely rahalahinareo; fa samia mody any an-tranony avy ianareo, fa avy amiko izao zavatra izao. Dia nihaino ny tenin’ i Jehovah ny olona, ka dia samy lasa nody araka ny tenin’ i Jehovah.
25 Then Jeroboam built Shechem in the hill country of Ephraim, and lived in it; and he went out from there and built Penuel.
Ary Jeroboama dia nanamboatra an’ i Sekema any amin’ ny tany havoan’ i Efraima ka nonina tao; ary raha avy tao izy, dia nanamboatra an’ i Pehoela koa.
26 Jeroboam said in his heart, “Now the kingdom will return to David’s house.
Ary Jeroboama nanao anakampo hoe: Izao ny fanjakana dia hody amin’ ny taranak’ i Davida ihany;
27 If this people goes up to offer sacrifices in the LORD’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.”
fa raha miakatra hamono zavatra hatao fanatitra ao amin’ ny tranon’ i Jehovah any Jerosalema ny vahoaka, dia hody amin’ ny tompony indray ny fony dia amin-dRehoboama, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, ary dia hamono ahy izy ka hiverina any amin-dRehoboama, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, indray.
28 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!”
Dia nihevitra ny mpanjaka ka nanao ombilahy kely volamena roa; ary hoy izy tamin’ ny olona: “Aoka izay ny fiakaranareo any Jerosalema! Ry Isiraely ô” indreo ny andriamanitrao, izay nitondra anao nivoaka avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta.
29 He set the one in Bethel, and the other he put in Dan.
Ary ny anankiray dia napetrany tao Betela, fa ny anankiray kosa dia tao Dana.
30 This thing became a sin, for the people went even as far as Dan to worship before the one there.
Ary izany zavatra izany dia tonga fahotana; fa ny olona dia nandeha hivavaha teo anatrehan’ ny anankiray amin’ ireo hatrany Dana.
31 He made houses of high places, and made priests from amongst all the people, who were not of the sons of Levi.
Ary nanao trano teny amin’ ny fitoerana avo izy sady nanendry olona hafa ho mpisorona, izay tsy isan’ ny taranak’ i Levy.
32 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.
Ary Jeroboama, nanendry andro firavoravoana tamin’ ny andro fahadimy ambin’ ny folo amin’ ny volana fahavalo, tahaka ny andro firavoravoana tamin’ ny Joda ihany, ka nanatitra fanatitra teo ambonin’ ny alitara izy. Toy izany no nataony tao Betela, fa namono zavatra hatao fanatitra ho an’ ireo ombilahy kely izay nataony izy; ary nampitoeriny tao Betela ireo mpisorona amin’ ny fitoerana avo izay notendreny.
33 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.
Ary nanatitra fanatitra teo ambonin’ ny alitara izay nataony tao Betela izy tamin’ ny andro fahadimy ambin’ ny folo amin’ ny volana fahavalo, volana izay notendreny araka ny sitrapony ihany; ary nanao andro firavoravoana ho an’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely izy sady nanatitra fanatitra teo ambonin’ ny alitara sy nandoro ditin-kazo manitra.
