Israa'iil Oo Ku Caasiyoobay Rexabcaam

10 Markaasaa Rexabcaam wuxuu tegey Shekem, maxaa yeelay, reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammu waxay yimaadeen Shekem inay isaga ku soo boqraan. Oo markii Yaaraabcaam ina Nebaad taas maqlay ayuu ka soo noqday dalkii Masar (waayo, wuxuu joogay dalkii Masar oo uu Boqor Sulaymaan kaga cararay). Waa loo cid diray oo loo yeedhay, oo Yaaraabcaam iyo reer binu Israa'iil oo dhammuna way yimaadeen, markaasay Rexabcaam la hadleen, oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, War aabbahaa harqood daran buu na saaray, haddaba noo fududee hawshii aabbahaa oo adkayd iyo harqoodkiisii cuslaa oo uu na saaray, annana waannu kuu adeegaynaa. Markaasuu ku yidhi, Saddex maalmood dabadood igu soo noqda. Markaasaa dadkii ka tegey. Markaasaa Boqor Rexabcaam la tashaday odayaashii aabbihiis Sulaymaan intuu noolaa hor joogi jiray, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, War maxaad igula talinaysaan oo aan dadkan jawaab ugu celiyaa? Oo intay la hadleen ayay ku yidhaahdeen, Haddaad dadkan u roonaatid, oo aad ka farxisid, oo aad erayo wanaagsan kula hadashid, markaasay weligood addoommo kuu ahaanayaan. Laakiinse wuu ka tegey taladii odayaashu kula taliyeen, oo haddana wuxuu la arrinsaday raggii dhallinyarada ahaa oo isaga la koray ee hortiisa joogay. Oo wuxuu iyagii ku yidhi, War maxaad igula talinaysaan oo aan jawaab ugu celinnaa dadkan ila hadlay oo igu yidhi, War harqoodkii aabbahaa na saaray noo fududee? 10 Markaasay raggii dhallintayaraa oo isaga la koray la hadleen, oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, La hadal dadkii kula hadlay oo kugu yidhi, Aabbahaa harqood daran buu na saaray ee adigu noo fududee. Oo waxaad ku tidhaahdaa, Faryaradaydu waa ka sii dhumuc weyn tahay aabbahay dhexdiisa. 11 Haddaba meeshii aabbahay harqood culus idinka saaray, anna culays baan idiinku sii darayaa, oo aabbahay wuxuu idinku edbin jiray shaabuugyo, laakiinse anigu waxaan idinku edbinayaa hangarallayaal. 12 Sidaas daraaddeed Yaaraabcaam iyo dadkii oo dhammuba maalintii saddexaad ayay Rexabcaam u yimaadeen siduu boqorku hore ugu amray markuu ku yidhi, Maalinta saddexaad igu soo noqda. 13 Markaasaa Boqor Rexabcaam ka tegey taladii raggii odayaasha ahaa, oo si qallafsan ayuu ugu jawaabay, 14 oo wuxuu kula hadlay taladii raggii dhallintayaraa, oo ku yidhi, Aabbahay harqood culus buu idin saaray, laakiinse anna culays kalaan idiinku sii darayaa, aabbahay wuxuu idinku edbin jiray shaabuugyo, laakiinse anigu waxaan idinku edbinayaa hangarallayaal. 15 Sidaas daraaddeed boqorkii dadkii ma uu dhegaysan, waayo, taasu xagga Ilaah bay ka timid, si uu Rabbigu u adkeeyo eraygiisii uu Yaaraabcaam ina Nebaad kula hadlay oo uu u soo dhiibay Axiiyaah kii reer Shiiloh. 16 Oo dadkii Israa'iil oo dhammuna markay arkeen inaan boqorku dhegaysan ayaa dadkii waxay boqorkii ugu jawaabeen oo ku yidhaahdeen, Bal maxaan qayb ku leennahay Daa'uud? Dhaxalna kuma lihin ina Yesay. Haddaba dadkii Israa'iilow, nin kastow, teendhadaadii tag. Oo Daa'uudow, bal eeg, reerkaagii waa kuu kaas. Markaasay dadkii Israa'iil oo dhammu teendhooyinkoodii tageen. 17 Laakiinse Rexabcaam wuxuu boqor u ahaa intii reer binu Israa'iil ahayd ee degganayd magaalooyinka reer Yahuudah. 18 Markaasaa Boqor Rexabcaam wuxuu diray Hadooraam oo cashuurta u sarreeyey, oo dadkii Israa'iil dhagax bay la dhaceen, wuuna dhintay. Markaasaa Boqor Rexabcaam ku degdegay inuu fuulo gaadhifaraskiisii si uu Yeruusaalem ugu cararo. 19 Sidaasay dadkii Israa'iil ugu caasiyoobeen Daa'uud reerkiisii ilaa maantadan la joogo.

Israel Rebels Against Rehoboam(A)

10 Rehoboam went to Shechem, for all Israel had gone there to make him king. When Jeroboam(B) son of Nebat heard this (he was in Egypt, where he had fled(C) from King Solomon), he returned from Egypt. So they sent for Jeroboam, and he and all Israel(D) went to Rehoboam and said to him: “Your father put a heavy yoke on us,(E) but now lighten the harsh labor and the heavy yoke he put on us, and we will serve you.”

Rehoboam answered, “Come back to me in three days.” So the people went away.

Then King Rehoboam consulted the elders(F) who had served his father Solomon during his lifetime. “How would you advise me to answer these people?” he asked.

They replied, “If you will be kind to these people and please them and give them a favorable answer,(G) they will always be your servants.”

But Rehoboam rejected(H) the advice the elders(I) gave him and consulted the young men who had grown up with him and were serving him. He asked them, “What is your advice? How should we answer these people who say to me, ‘Lighten the yoke your father put on us’?”

10 The young men who had grown up with him replied, “The people have said to you, ‘Your father put a heavy yoke on us, but make our yoke lighter.’ Now tell them, ‘My little finger is thicker than my father’s waist. 11 My father laid on you a heavy yoke; I will make it even heavier. My father scourged you with whips; I will scourge you with scorpions.’”

12 Three days later Jeroboam and all the people returned to Rehoboam, as the king had said, “Come back to me in three days.” 13 The king answered them harshly. Rejecting the advice of the elders, 14 he followed the advice of the young men and said, “My father made your yoke heavy; I will make it even heavier. My father scourged you with whips; I will scourge you with scorpions.” 15 So the king did not listen to the people, for this turn of events was from God,(J) to fulfill the word the Lord had spoken to Jeroboam son of Nebat through Ahijah the Shilonite.(K)

16 When all Israel(L) saw that the king refused to listen to them, they answered the king:

“What share do we have in David,(M)
    what part in Jesse’s son?
To your tents, Israel!
    Look after your own house, David!”

So all the Israelites went home. 17 But as for the Israelites who were living in the towns of Judah, Rehoboam still ruled over them.

18 King Rehoboam sent out Adoniram,[a](N) who was in charge of forced labor, but the Israelites stoned him to death. King Rehoboam, however, managed to get into his chariot and escape to Jerusalem. 19 So Israel has been in rebellion against the house of David to this day.
