1When Rehoboam arrived in Jerusalem, he mobilized the house of Judah and Benjamin—180,000 chosen warriors—to fight against Israel and restore the kingdom to Rehoboam.
1A HIKI o Rehoboama i Ierusalema, hoakoakoa ae la ia i ka ohana a Iuda a me Beniamina, hookahi haneri a me kanawalu tausani kanaka ui, he poe koa, e kaua aku i ka Iseraela, e hoihoi mai i ke aupuni ia Rehoboama.
2But the word of the LORD came to Shemaiah the man of God:
2A hiki mai ka olelo a Iehova ia Semaia, i ke kanaka o ke Akua, i mai la,
3“Tell Rehoboam son of Solomon king of Judah and all the Israelites in Judah and Benjamin
3E olelo aku oe ia Rehoboama i ke keiki a Solomona i ke alii o ka Iuda, a i ka poe mamo a Iseraela a pau ma Iuda a me Beniamina, e i aku,
4that this is what the LORD says: ‘You are not to go up and fight against your brothers. Each of you must return home, for this word is from Me.’” So they listened to the words of the LORD and turned back from going against Jeroboam.
4Penei ka olelo a Iehova, Mai pii aku oukou, aole hoi oukou e kaua aku i ko oukou poe hoahanau; e hoi kela kanaka keia kanaka i kona hale iho; no ka mea, na'u aku neia mea: a lohe lakou a pau i ka olelo a Iehova, a hoi lakou mai ko lakou hele ana aku e kaua ia Ieroboama.
5Rehoboam continued to live in Jerusalem, and he built up cities for defense in Judah.
5A noho iho la o Rehoboama ma Ierusalema, a kukulu iho la ia ma Iuda i na kulanakauhale paa i ka pa.
6He built up Bethlehem, Etam, Tekoa,
6Kukulu iho la oia ia Betelehema, a me Etena, a me Tekoa.
7Beth-zur, Soco, Adullam,
7A me Betazura, a me Soko, a me Adulama,
8Gath, Mareshah, Ziph,
8A me Gata, a me Anaresa, a me Zipa,
9Adoraim, Lachish, Azekah,
9A me Adoraima, a me Lakisa, a me Azeka,
10Zorah, Aijalon, and Hebron, the fortified cities in Judah and Benjamin.
10A me Zora, a me Aialona, a me Heberona, aia no ma Iuda, a ma Beniamina, he mau kulanakauhale paa i ka pa.
11He strengthened their fortresses and put officers in them, with supplies of food, oil, and wine.
11A hoopaa iho la oia i na paakaua, a hoonoho aku la iloko olaila i na luna a me na ahu ai, a me ka aila, a me ka waina.
12He also put shields and spears in all the cities and strengthened them greatly. So Judah and Benjamin belonged to him.
12A iloko o kela kulanakauhale keia kulanakauhale, waiho iho la ia i na palekaua, a me na ihe, hana iho la oia malaila a paa loa, a ia ia o Iuda a me Beniamina ma kona aoao.
13Moreover, the priests and Levites from all their districts throughout Israel stood with Rehoboam.
13A o na kahuna, a me na Levi iwaena o ka Iseraela a pau, hele mai lakou io na la, mai kauwahi o lakou a pau mai.
14For the Levites left their pasturelands and their possessions and went to Judah and Jerusalem, because Jeroboam and his sons had rejected them as priests of the LORD.
14No ka mea, haalele ka poe Levi i na wahi o lakou, a me ko lakou hooiliua, a hele lakou i Iuda, a i Ierusalema, no ka mea, kipaku o Ieroboama a me kana mau keiki ia lakou mailoko aku o ka oihana kahuna no Iehova:
15And Jeroboam appointed his own priests for the high places and for the goat demons and calf idols he had made.
15A hoonoho oia nona i na kahuna, no na wahi kiekie, a no na kao, a no na keiki bipi ana i hana'i.
16Those from every tribe of Israel who had set their hearts to seek the LORD their God followed the Levites to Jerusalem to sacrifice to the LORD, the God of their fathers.
16A mahope o keia mau mea, o ka poe a pau noloko o na ohana a pau o ka Iseraela i haawi aku i ko lakou mau naau e imi ia Iehova ke Akua o ka Iseraela, hele mai lakou i Ierusalema e mohai aku ia Iehova, i ke Akua o ko lakou poe kupuna.
17So they strengthened the kingdom of Judah and supported Rehoboam son of Solomon for three years, because they walked for three years in the way of David and Solomon.
17A hookupaa iho la lakou i ke aupuni o Iuda, a hookupaa no hoi ia Rehoboama i ke keiki a Solomona i na makahiki ekolu; no ka mea, i na makahiki ekolu, hele lakou ma ka aoao o Davida a me Solomona.
18And Rehoboam married Mahalath, who was the daughter of David’s son Jerimoth and of Abihail, the daughter of Jesse’s son Eliab.
18A lawe iho la o Rehoboama i wahine nana, ia Mehalata, i ke kaikamahine a Ieremota, ke keiki a Davida, a me Abehaila, ke kaikamahine a Eliaba ke keiki a Iese.
19She bore sons to him: Jeush, Shemariah, and Zaham.
19A hanau mai oia nana i na keiki, o Ieusa, me Samaria, a me Zahama.
20After her, he married Maacah daughter of Absalom, and she bore to him Abijah, Attai, Ziza, and Shelomith.
20A mahope iho, lawe oia ia Maaka i ke kaikamahine a Abesaloma; a hanau mai oia nana o Abiia, a me Atai, a me Ziza. a me Silomita.
21Rehoboam loved Maacah daughter of Absalom more than all his wives and concubines. In all, he had eighteen wives and sixty concubines, and he was the father of twenty-eight sons and sixty daughters.
21Aloha iho la o Rehoboama ia Maaka i ke kaikamahine a Abesaloma, mamua o kana mau wahine a pau, a me kana poe haiawahine; (no ka mea, aia no ia ia he umikumamawalu wahine, a me na haiawahine he kanaono; a hanau mai he iwakalua a me kumamawalu na keikikane, a me na kaikamahine he kanaono.)
22Rehoboam appointed Abijah son of Maacah as chief prince among his brothers, intending to make him king.
22Hoonoho iho la o Rehoboama ia Abiia i ke keiki a Maaka i luna mawaena o kona poe hoahanau, no ka hoalii aku ia ia.
23Rehoboam also acted wisely by dispersing some of his sons throughout the districts of Judah and Benjamin, and to all the fortified cities. He gave them abundant provisions and sought many wives for them.
23A hana maalea iho la oia, a hoonoho liilii ia i kana poe keiki ma na aina a pau o Iuda a me Beniamina, a iloko o na kulanakauhale a pau i paa i ka pa, a haawi aku oia ia lakou i ka ai a nui. Makemake iho la ia i na wahine he nui loa.
