1Israel pum loh Rehoboam te manghai sak ham Shekhem la a caeh uh dongah amah khaw Shekhem la cet.
1Rehoboam went to Shechem, for all Israel had come to Shechem to make him king.
2Te tla a om te Nebat capa Jeroboam loh a yaak. Te vaengah anih te Solomon manghai mikhmuh lamloh Egypt la yong dae Jeroboam te Egypt lamloh mael.
2When Jeroboam the son of Nebat heard of it (for he was in Egypt, where he had fled from the presence of King Solomon), Jeroboam returned out of Egypt.
3Te dongah amah te a tah uh tih a khue uh. Te phoeiah Jeroboam neh Israel pum te cet uh tih Rehoboam te a voek uh.
3They sent and called him; and Jeroboam and all Israel came, and they spoke to Rehoboam, saying,
4Te vaengah, “Na pa loh kaimih kah hnamkun he khak a siing coeng dae na pa mangkhak kah thothuengnah neh a hnamkun a rhih kaimih soah a tloeng te hlawt mai lamtah nang taengah ka tho ka tat bitni,” a ti na uh.
4“Your father made our yoke grievous. Now therefore make the grievous service of your father and his heavy yoke which he put on us, lighter, and we will serve you.”
5Te vaengah amih te, “Hnin thum a poeng phoeiah, kai taengla ha mael uh,” a ti nah tih pilnam te cet.
5He said to them, “Come again to me after three days.” So the people departed.
6Te vaengah manghai Rehoboam loh a napa Solomon amah a hingnah a om vaengah a mikhmuh kah aka pai patong rhoek te a dawt tih, “He pilnam taengah ol mael ham te nangmih loh balae nan uen eh?,” a ti nah.
6King 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 about how to answer these people?”
7Te vaengah anih te a voek uh tih, “Pilnam taengah he a then la na om tih amih taengah na moei a then atah amih te ol then thui pah. Namah tue khuiah tah na taengah sal la om uh bitni,” a ti na uh.
7They spoke to him, saying, “If you are kind to these people, please them, and speak good words to them, then they will be your servants forever.”
8Tedae anih taengah a paek patong rhoek kah cilsuep te a hnoo tih camoe rhoek te a dawt. Te rhoek tah amah neh pantai uh tih a mikhmuh ah pai uh.
8But 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.
9Te phoeiah amih te, “Pilnam he ol ka mael ham te nangmih loh metlam na poek uh. Amih loh kai taengah a thui uh tih, 'Na pa loh kaimih soah a tloeng hnamkun te hlawt laeh,’ a ti uh,” a ti nah.
9He said to them, “What counsel do you give, that we may give an answer to these people, who have spoken to me, saying, ‘Make the yoke that your father put on us lighter’?”
10Te dongah anih te amah neh aka pantai camoe rhoek loh a voek tih, “Pilnam te he he thui pah, amih a nang taengah aka cal uh tih, 'Na pa loh kaimih kah hnamkun he a siing dae namah loh kaimih dong lamkah he hlawt laeh,’ aka ti uh. Amih te, 'Kai kah kutca he a pa kah cinghen lakah putsut pueng.
10The young men who had grown up with him spoke to him, saying, “Thus you shall tell the people who spoke to you, saying, ‘Your father made our yoke heavy, but make it lighter on us;’ thus you shall say to them, ‘My little finger is thicker than my father’s waist.
11Te dongah a pa loh nangmih soah hnamkun a rhih han tloeng coeng. Tedae kai loh nangmih kah hnamkun te kang khoep ni. A pa loh nangmih te rhuihet neh n'toel dae kai tah saelkhui ta-ai neh kan toel ni,'ti nah,” a ti uh.
11Now whereas my father burdened you with a heavy yoke, I will add to your yoke. My father chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.’”
12Te dongah manghai loh, “A hnin thum dongah kai taengla ha mael uh,” a ti nah tih a thui pah bangla a hnin thum dongah tah Jeroboam neh pilnam boeih te Rehoboam taengla mael tangloeng.
12So Jeroboam and all the people came to Rehoboam the third day, as the king asked, saying, “Come to me again the third day.”
13Tedae amih te manghai loh kalh a voek tih manghai Rehoboam loh patong rhoek kah cilsuep te a hnawt.
13The king answered them roughly; and King Rehoboam abandoned the counsel of the old men,
14Te vaengah amih te camoe rhoek kah cilsuep bangla a voek tih, “Nangmih kah hnamkun te kan siing vetih kamah loh te te kang koei ni. A pa loh nangmih te rhuihet neh n'toel dae kai tah saelkhui ta-ai neh kan toel ni,” a ti nah.
14and spoke to them after the counsel of the young men, saying, “My father made your yoke heavy, but I will add to it. My father chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.”
15Manghai loh pilnam kah ol a hnatun na pawt khaw amah BOEIPA kah ol pai sak hamla Pathen taeng lamkah nuencennah la a om dongah ni. Nebat capa Jeroboam ham te Shiloh Ahijah kut ah a thui coeng.
15So the king didn’t listen to the people; for it was brought about by God, that the LORD might establish his word, which he spoke by Ahijah the Shilonite to Jeroboam the son of Nebat.
16Amih ol te manghai loh a hnatun pawt khaw Israel pum loh a ming. Te dongah pilnam loh manghai te a mael thil tih, “David khuiah khoyo te kaimih ham ba lam nim? Israel nang dap kah hlang te Jesse koca khuiah a rho a om pai moenih. David aw namah kah imkhui so laeh,” a ti uh. Te phoeiah Israel pum te amah dap la cet.
16When all Israel saw that the king didn’t listen to them, the people answered the king, saying, “What portion do we have in David? We don’t have an inheritance in the son of Jesse! Every man to your tents, Israel! Now see to your own house, David.” So all Israel departed to their tents.
17Tedae Israel ca rhoek tah Judah khopuei rhoek ah kho a sak uh tih amih soah Rehoboam manghai.
17But as for the children of Israel who lived in the cities of Judah, Rehoboam reigned over them.
18Te vaengah manghai Rehoboam loh Hadoram te saldong boei la a tueih hatah anih te Israel ca rhoek loh lungto neh a dae uh tih duek. Tedae manghai Rehoboam te leng dongla luei hatlat tih Jerusalem la rhaelrham.
18Then King Rehoboam sent Hadoram, who was over the men subject to forced labor; and the children of Israel stoned him to death with stones. King Rehoboam hurried to get himself up to his chariot, to flee to Jerusalem.
19Te tlam ni tahae khohnin hil Israel loh David imkhui taengah boe a koek uh.
19So Israel rebelled against David’s house to this day.
