And Rehoboam cometh in to Jerusalem, and assembleth the house of Judah and Benjamin, a hundred and eighty thousand chosen warriors, to fight with Israel, to bring back the kingdom to Rehoboam.
2 Tusruktu LEUM GOD El fahkang nu sel mwet palu Shemaiah
And a word of Jehovah is unto Shemaiah, a man of God, saying,
3 elan sang kas se inge nu sel Tokosra Rehoboam ac mwet nukewa in sruf lal Judah ac Benjamin:
'Speak unto Rehoboam son of Solomon king of Judah, and unto all Israel in Judah and Benjamin, saying,
4 “Nik kowos som lain mwet Israel wiowos. Kowos nukewa folokla nu yen suwos an. Ma sikyak ingan ma lungse luk.” Elos akos ma LEUM GOD El sapkin, ac tia som mweunel Jeroboam.
Thus said Jehovah, Ye do not go up nor fight with your brethren, turn back each to his house, for from Me hath this thing been;' and they hear the words of Jehovah, and turn back from going against Jeroboam.
5 Rehoboam el mutana Jerusalem ac sap in kuhlusyukyak siti in acn Judah ac Benjamin inge:
And Rehoboam dwelleth in Jerusalem, and buildeth cities for a bulwark in Judah,
6 Bethlehem, Etam, Tekoa,
yea, he buildeth Beth-Lehem and Etam, and Tekoa,

and Zorah, and Aijalon, and Hebron, that [are] in Judah and in Benjamin, cities of bulwarks.
11 El oru tuh siti inge in arulana ku, ac el sulela kais sie mwet kol fulat nu in kais sie siti, ac supwala pac mwe mongo ac oil in olive ac wain nu in siti inge nukewa,
And he strengtheneth the bulwarks, and putteth in them leaders, and treasures of food, and oil, and wine,
12 ac oayapa mwe loang ac osra. Ouinge el sruokya na acn Judah ac Benjamin in oan ye ku lal.
and in every city and city targets and spears, and strengtheneth them very greatly; and he hath Judah and Benjamin.
13 Mwet tol ac mwet Levi tuku liki acn nukewa Israel nu Judah in acn eir.
And the priests, and the Levites, that [are] in all Israel, have stationed themselves by him, out of all their border,
14 Mwet Levi elos sisla ima lalos ac acn saya pac selos, ac som nu Judah ac Jerusalem, mweyen Tokosra Jeroboam lun Israel ac mwet kol tokol elos tia lela elos in oru orekma in mwet tol lun LEUM GOD.
for the Levites have left their suburbs and their possession, and they come to Judah and to Jerusalem, for Jeroboam and his sons have cast them off from acting as priests to Jehovah,
15 Jeroboam el srisrngiya mwet tol lal sifacna, in orekma ke nien alu lun mwet pegan, oayapa elos in alu nu sin demon ac ma sruloala ma el orala in oana luman cow mukul.
and he establisheth to him priests for high places, and for goats, and for calves, that he made —
16 Mwet ke kais sie sruf lun Israel su kena yohk in alu nu sin LEUM GOD lun Israel elos wi mwet Levi som nu Jerusalem, tuh elos in ku in orek kisa nu sin LEUM GOD lun papa tumalos.
and after them, out of all the tribes of Israel, those giving their heart to seek Jehovah, God of Israel, have come in to Jerusalem to sacrifice to Jehovah, God of their father.
17 Ma se inge akkeye tokosrai lun Judah, ac ke yac tolu mwet inge elos akkeyal Rehoboam, wen natul Solomon, ac elos moul oana ke elos moul ye koko lal Tokosra David ac Tokosra Solomon.
And they strengthen the kingdom of Judah, and strengthen Rehoboam son of Solomon, for three years, because they walked in the way of David and Solomon for three years.
18 Rehoboam el payukyak sel Mahalath, su papa tumal pa Jerimoth wen natul David, ac nina kial pa Abihail, acn natul Eliab su nutin natul Jesse.
And Rehoboam taketh to him a wife, Mahalath, child of Jerimoth son of David, [and] Abigail daughter of Eliab, son of Jesse.
19 Oasr wen tolu natultal: Jeush, Shemariah, ac Zaham.
And she beareth to him sons, Jeush, and Shamaria, and Zaham.
20 Tok kutu el payukyak sel Maacah, acn natul Absalom, ac oasr wen akosr natultal: Abijah, Attai, Ziza, ac Shelomith.
And after her he hath taken Maachah daughter of Absalom, and she beareth to him Abijah, and Attai, and Ziza, and Shelomith.
21 Oasr mutan singoul oalkosr kial, ac mutan kulansap onngoul kial, ac el papa tumun wen longoul oalkosr ac acn onngoul. Inmasrlon mutan kial ac mutan kulansap kial, el lungse yohk Maacah.
And Rehoboam loveth Maachah daughter of Absalom above all his wives and his concubines — for eighteen wives he hath taken, and sixty concubines — and he begetteth twenty and eight sons, and sixty daughters.
22 El kuloel Abijah, wen natul Maacah, yohk liki nukewa wen natul saya, ac el sulella mu el pa ac aolul in tokosra.
And Rehoboam appointeth for head Abijah son of Maachah, for leader among his brethren, for to cause him to reign.
23 Rehoboam el lalmwetmet ke el sang orekma kunen wen natul inge, ac oakelosi ke siti nukewa ma el kuhlasak in acn Judah ac Benjamin. Pukanten ma el sang nu selos, ac el oayapa sulela mutan pus kialos.
And he hath understanding, and spreadeth out of all his sons to all lands of Judah and Benjamin, to all cities of the bulwarks, and giveth to them provision in abundance; and he asketh a multitude of wives.
