Sie Tokosra 12
1 Rehoboam el som nu Shechem, yen mwet nukewa in sruf epang elos fahsreni nu we in akwalyalak nu ke tokosra.
And Roboam went to Sichem: for thither were all Israel come together to make him king.
2 Ke Jeroboam wen natul Nebat, su tuh kaingkunul Solomon ac som nu Egypt, el lohng ke pweng se inge, na el foloko liki acn Egypt.
But Jeroboam the son of Nabat, who was yet in Egypt, a fugitive from the face of king Solomon, hearing of his death, returned out of Egypt.
3 Mwet in sruf in acn epang sapla solalma, ac elos nukewa som nu yorol Rehoboam, ac fahk nu sel,
And they sent and called him: and Jeroboam came, and all the multitude of Israel, and they spoke to Roboam, saying:
4 “Solomon, papa tomom, el tuh arulana akkeokye kut ac filiya mwe utuk toasr facsr. Kom fin akmulalaye mwe utuk inge ac akfisrasryela nu sesr, na kut ac fah kulansupwekom ke inse pwaye.”
Thy father laid a grievous yoke upon us: now therefore do thou take off a little of the grievous service of thy father, and of his most heavy yoke, which he put upon us, and we will serve thee.
5 El topkolos ouinge, “Kowos foloko tukun len tolu, na nga fah sot top luk nu suwos.” Na elos som.
And he said to them: Go till the third day, and come to me again. And when the people was gone,
6 Tokosra Rehoboam el som in eis nunak sin mwet matu su tuh mwet kasru fulat lal Solomon, papa tumal. El siyuk selos, “Top fuka kowos nunku mu fal nga in sang topuk mwe siyuk lun mwet uh?”
King Roboam took counsel with the old men, that stood before Solomon his father while he yet lived, and he said: What counsel do you give me, that I may answer this people?
7 Ac elos fahk, “Kom fin lungse kasru mwet inge, kom sang sie top ma elos ac insewowo kac, na pacl nukewa elos ac kulansupwekom ke inse pwaye.”
They said to him: If thou wilt yield to this people today, and condescend to them, and grant their petition, and wilt speak gentle words to them, they will be thy servants always.
8 Tusruktu Rehoboam el pilesru kas in kasru lun mwet matu, ac som nu yurin mwet fusr su matwalna ac welul kapkapak, ac inge elos mwet kasru lal.
But he left the counsel of the old men, which they had given him, and consulted with the young men, that had been brought up with him, and stood before him.
9 El siyuk selos, “Kasru fuka lowos nu sik? Mea nga ac sang topuk mwet ma siyuk nga in akmulalaye mwe utuk lalos?”
And he said to them: What counsel do you give me, that I may answer this people, who have said to me: Make the yoke which thy father put upon us lighter?
10 Ac elos fahk, “Pa inge ma kom ac fahk nu selos uh: ‘Kuf srisrik soko ke pouk uh, yohk liki infulwen papa tumuk.’
And the young men that had been brought up with him, said: Thus shalt thou speak to this people, who have spoken to thee, saying: Thy father made our yoke heavy, do thou ease us. Thou shalt say to them: My little finger is thicker than the back of my father.
11 Fahk pac nu selos mu, ‘Papa tumuk el tuh filiya mwe utuk toasr nu fowos, a nga ac oru in toasr liki. El tuh puok kowos ke mwe sringsring, a nga ac sringil kowos ke mwe sringsring oasr osra kac!’”
And now my father put a, heavy yoke upon you, but I will add to your yoke: my father beat you with whips, but I will beat you with scorpions.
12 Tukun len tolu, Jeroboam ac mwet nukewa folokla nu yorol Tokosra Rehoboam, oana ke el tuh fahk nu selos.
So Jeroboam and all the people came to Roboam the third day, as the king had appointed, saying: Come to me again the third day.
13 Tokosra el pilesru kas in kasru lun mwet matu, ac el kaskas na toasr nu sin mwet uh,
And the king answered the people roughly, leaving the counsel of the old men, which they had given him,
14 in oana ma mwet fusr uh fahk su sel. El fahk, “Papa tumuk el filiya mwe utuk toasr nu fowos, a nga ac oru in toasr liki na. El puok kowos ke mwe sringsring, a nga ac sringil kowos ke mwe sringsring oasr osra kac!”
And he 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 beat you with whips, but I will beat you with scorpions.
15 Ma lungse lun LEUM GOD pa inge, tuh in sikyak oana ma El tuh fahk nu sel Jeroboam, wen natul Nebat, in kas lun Ahijah, mwet palu Shiloh. Pa inge sripa se sis tokosra el tiana lohang nu sin mwet uh.
And the king condescended not to the people: for the Lord was turned away from him, to make good his word, which he had spoken in the hand of Ahias the Silonite, to Jeroboam the son of Nabat.
16 Ke mwet uh liye lah tokosra el tiana lohngolos, na elos wowoyak ac fahk, “Tolulla David ac sou lal! Wanginna sripaltal nu sesr! Mwet Israel, kut folokelik nu yen sesr! Sang Rehoboam elan sifacna fosrngakunul!” Ouinge mwet Israel elos forla lainul tokosra,
Then the people seeing that the king would not hearken to them, answered him, saying: What portion have we in David? or what inheritance in the son of Isai? Go home to thy dwellings, O Israel, now David look to thy own house. So Israel departed to their dwellings.
17 na pwanang Rehoboam el tokosra lun mwet na ma muta in acn Judah mukena.
But as for all the children of Israel that dwelt in the cities of Juda, Roboam reigned over them.
18 Na Tokosra Rehoboam el supwalla Adoniram, su kol orekma lun mwet kohs, elan som nu yurin mwet Israel, na elos tanglal nwe ke el misa. Ke sripa se inge Rehoboam el sulaklak na sroang nu fin chariot natul, ac kaingla nu Jerusalem.
Then king Roboam sent Aduram, who was over the tribute: and all Israel stoned him, and he died. Wherefore king Roboam made haste to get him up into his chariot, and he fled to Jerusalem:
19 In pacl sac me, mwet in sruf nukewa epang in Israel, elos alein na nu sin mwet leum in fwil natul David.
And Israel revolted from the house of David, unto this day.
20 Ke pacl se mwet Israel lohngak lah Jeroboam el foloko Egypt me, elos solalma nu ke tukeni lalos, ac elos akwalyalak elan tokosra lalos mwet Israel. Sruf lal Judah mukena pa srakna orekma nu sin mwet in fwil natul David.
And it came to pass when all Israel heard that Jeroboam was come again, that they gathered an assembly, and sent and called him, and made him king over all Israel, and there was none that followed the house of David but the tribe of Juda only.
21 Ke Rehoboam el sun acn Jerusalem el pangoneni siofok oalngoul tausin mwet pisrla ke mweun in sruf lal Judah ac Benjamin. El nunku elan som mweuni sruf in acn epang, elan sifil folokonak ku lal in leum faclos.
And Roboam came to Jerusalem, and gathered together all the house of Juda, and the tribe of Benjamin, a hundred four-score thousand chosen men for war, to fight against the house of Israel and to bring the kingdom again under Roboam the son of Solomon.
22 Tusruktu God El fahk nu sin mwet palu Shemaiah
But the word of the Lord came to Semeias the man of God, saying:
23 elan sang kas inge nu sel Rehoboam ac nu sin mwet nukewa in sruf lal Judah ac Benjamin:
Speak to Roboam the son of Solomon, the king of Juda, and to all the house of Juda, and Benjamin, and the rest of the people, saying:
24 “Nimet mweuni mwet Israel wiowos. Kowos nukewa folokelik nu yen suwos an. Ma sikyak inge ma lungse luk!” Na elos nukewa akos ma LEUM GOD El sapkin, ac folokelik nu yen selos.
Thus saith the Lord: You shall not go up nor fight against your brethren the children of Israel: let every man return to his house, for this thing is from me. They hearkened to the word of the Lord, and returned from their journey, as the Lord had commanded them.
25 Tokosra Jeroboam el kuhlasak siti srisrik Shechem infulan eol in acn Ephraim, ac muta we ke kitin pacl. Na el som liki acn we ac kuhlasak pac siti srisrik Penuel.
And Jeroboam built Sichem in mount Ephraim, and dwelt there, and going out from thence he built Phanuel.
26 El sifacna motkwe mu, “Inge tokosrai uh ku na in mau folokyang nu sin mwet in fwil natul David.
And Jeroboam said in his heart: Now shall the kingdom return to the house of David,
27 Mwet inge fin fahsrna nu Jerusalem in orek kisa nu sin LEUM GOD ke Tempul, na insialos ac ku na in sifil forla nu sel Tokosra Rehoboam, leum lalos in Judah, na elos ac uniyuwi.”
If this people go up to offer sacrifices in the house of the Lord at Jerusalem: and the heart of this people will turn to their lord Roboam the king of Juda, and they will kill me, and return to him.
28 Tukun el nunku ke ma inge, na el orala ma sruloala gold in luman cow mukul lukwa, ac fahk nu sin mwet lal, “Fal tari pacl ma kowos foroht forma nwe Jerusalem in alu we. Mwet Israel, pa inge god lowos, su uskowosme liki acn Egypt!”
And finding out a device he made two golden calves, and said to them: Go ye up no more to Jerusalem: Behold thy gods, O Israel, who brought thee out of the land of Egypt.
29 Na el filiya sie ma sruloala inge in acn Bethel, ac ma se ngia in acn Dan.
And he set the one in Bethel, and the other in Dan:
30 Ma inge sie ma koluk, lah mwet uh elos alu nu sin ma sruloala inge in acn Bethel ac Dan.
And this thing became an occasion of sin: for the people went to adore the calf as far as Dan.
31 Jeroboam el oayapa musaela acn in alu fineol uh, ac el sulela mwet tol su tia ma in sruf lun Levi.
And he made temples in the high places, and priests of the lowest of the people, who were not of the sons of Levi.
32 Jeroboam el oayapa oakiya sie len in kufwa nu selos, su oasr ke len aksingoul limekosr in malem akoalkosr, in oapana len in kufwa in acn Judah. El som nu Bethel ac orek kisa fin loang we nu sin ma sruloala gold in luman cow mukul lukwa ma el orala. Ac el filiya mwet tol in oru ma kunalos ke nien alu ma el tuh musaela in acn Bethel.
And he appointed a feast in the eighth month, on the fifteenth day of the month, after the manner of the feast that was celebrated in Juda. And going up to the altar, he did in like manner in Bethel, to sacrifice to the calves, which he had made: and he placed in Bethel priests of the high places, which he had made.
33 Ac ke len aksingoul limekosr in malem akoalkosr, len se ma el sifacna oakiya, el som nu Bethel ac orek kisa fin loang uh, in akfulatye len in kufwa se su el oakiya nu sin mwet Israel.
And he went up to the altar, which he had built in Bethel, on the fifteenth day of the eighth month, which he had devised of his own heart: and he ordained a feast to the children of Israel, and went upon the altar to burn incense.
