1And when Rehoboam was come to Jerusalem, he assembled the house of Judah and Benjamin, a hundred and fourscore thousand chosen men, that were warriors, to fight against Israel, to bring the kingdom back to Rehoboam.
2Tusruktu LEUM GOD El fahkang nu sel mwet palu Shemaiah
2But the word of the LORD came to Shemaiah the man of God, saying:
3elan sang kas se inge nu sel Tokosra Rehoboam ac mwet nukewa in sruf lal Judah ac Benjamin:
3'Speak unto Rehoboam the son of Solomon, king of Judah, and to 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.
4Thus saith the LORD: Ye shall not go up, nor fight against your brethren; return every man to his house, for this thing is of Me.' So they hearkened unto the words of the LORD, and returned from going against Jeroboam.
5Rehoboam el mutana Jerusalem ac sap in kuhlusyukyak siti in acn Judah ac Benjamin inge:
5And Rehoboam dwelt in Jerusalem, and built cities for defence in Judah.
6Bethlehem, Etam, Tekoa,
6He built even Beth-lehem, and Etam, and Tekoa,
7Bethzur, Soco, Adullam,
7and Beth-zur, and Soco, and Adullam,
8Gath, Mareshah, Ziph,
8and Gath, and Mareshah, and Ziph,
9Adoraim, Lachish, Azekah,
9and Adoraim, and Lachish, and Azekah,
10Zorah, Aijalon, ac Hebron.
10and Zorah, and Aijalon, and Hebron, which are in Judah and in Benjamin, fortified cities.
11El 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,
11And he fortified the strongholds, and put captains in them, and store of victual, and oil and wine.
12ac oayapa mwe loang ac osra. Ouinge el sruokya na acn Judah ac Benjamin in oan ye ku lal.
12And in every city he put shields and spears, and made them exceeding strong. And Judah and Benjamin adhered to him.
13Mwet tol ac mwet Levi tuku liki acn nukewa Israel nu Judah in acn eir.
13And the priests and the Levites that were in all Israel presented themselves to him out of all their border.
14Mwet 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 .
14For the Levites left their open land and their possession, and came to Judah and Jerusalem; for Jeroboam and his sons cast them off, that they should not execute the priest's office unto the LORD;
15Jeroboam 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.
15and he appointed him priests for the high places, and for the satyrs, and for the calves which he had made.
16Mwet 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.
16And after them, out of all the tribes of Israel, such as set their hearts to seek the LORD, the God of Israel, came to Jerusalem to sacrifice unto the LORD, the God of their fathers.
17Ma 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.
17So they strengthened the kingdom of Judah, and made Rehoboam the son of Solomon strong, three years; for they walked three years in the way of David and Solomon.
18Rehoboam el payukyak sel Mahalath, su papa tumal pa Jerimoth wen natul David, ac nina kial pa Abihail, acn natul Eliab su nutin natul Jesse.
18And Rehoboam took him a wife, Mahalath the daughter of Jerimoth the son of David, and of Abihail the daughter of Eliab the son of Jesse;
19Oasr wen tolu natultal: Jeush, Shemariah, ac Zaham.
19and she bore him sons: Jeush, and Shemariah, and Zaham.
20Tok kutu el payukyak sel Maacah, acn natul Absalom, ac oasr wen akosr natultal: Abijah, Attai, Ziza, ac Shelomith.
20And after her he took Maacah the daughter of Absalom; and she bore him Abijah, and Attai, and Ziza, and Shelomith.
21Oasr 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.
21And Rehoboam loved Maacah the daughter of Absalom above all his wives and his concubines — for he took eighteen wives, and threescore concubines, and begot twenty and eight sons and threescore daughters.
22El kuloel Abijah, wen natul Maacah, yohk liki nukewa wen natul saya, ac el sulella mu el pa ac aolul in tokosra.
22And Rehoboam appointed Abijah the son of Maacah to be chief, even the prince among his brethren; for he was minded to make him king.
23Rehoboam 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.
23And he dealt wisely, and dispersed of all his sons throughout all the lands of Judah and Benjamin, unto every fortified city; and he gave them victual in abundance. And he sought for them many wives.
