罗波安继位(A)

10 罗波安到示剑去,因为全体以色列人都去了示剑,要立他作王。 那时,尼八的儿子耶罗波安,因为逃避所罗门王,住在埃及;他一听见这事,就从埃及回来。 他们派人去叫耶罗波安回来;他就和全体以色列人来见罗波安,对他说: “你父亲使我们所负的轭甚重,现在求你减轻你父亲加在我们身上的劳役和重轭,我们就服事你。” 罗波安对他们说:“三天以后你们再来见我吧!”众人就离去了。

不采纳老年人的意见(B)

罗波安王和一些在他父亲所罗门在世的时候,侍立在所罗门面前的老人商议,说:“你们有甚么提议,我好回复这班民众呢?” 他们对他说:“如果王善待人民,使他们喜悦,对他们说好话,他们就必永远作你的仆人。”

听从少年人的计谋(C)

王不接受这些老人的意见,却去和那些同他一起长大,侍立在他面前的年轻人商议, 问他们:“这人民对我说:求你减轻你父亲加在我们身上的重轭吧。你们有甚么提议,我好回复他们呢?” 10 那些同他一起长大的年轻人对他说:“这人民对王说:‘你父亲使我们所负的轭甚重,现在求你减轻些吧。’王要这样对他们说:‘我的小拇指比我父亲的腰还粗呢。 11 我父亲把重轭加在你们身上,我必使你们负更重的轭;我父亲用鞭打你们,我却要用蝎子鞭责打你们。’”

12 耶罗波安和全体人民都遵照罗波安王所说“你们第三天再来见我”的话,第三天来见罗波安。 13 罗波安王很严厉地回答他们。罗波安王不接受老人的意见, 14 却照着年轻人的主意对他们说:“我父亲使你们负重轭,我必使你们负更重的轭;我父亲用鞭子责打你们,我却要用蝎子鞭责打你们。” 15 王不听从人民的要求,这事原是出于 神,为要实现耶和华借着示罗人亚希雅对尼八的儿子耶罗波安所说的话。

以色列人背叛(D)

16 以色列人见王不听他们的要求,就对王说:

“我们和大卫有甚么关系呢?

我们和耶西的儿子并不相干。

以色列人哪,各回各家去吧,

大卫啊,现在只顾你自己的家吧。”

于是全体以色列人都回自己的家去了。 17 只有那些住在犹大众城镇的以色列人,罗波安仍然作他们的王。 18 罗波安王差派了监管苦工的哈多兰(“哈多兰”是“亚多尼兰”或“亚多兰”的另一种写法;参王上4:6,12:18)到以色列人那里去,以色列人就用石头把他打死了。罗波安王急忙上车,逃回耶路撒冷去了。 19 这样,以色列人背叛了大卫家,直到今日。

The Revolt Against Rehoboam(A)

10 And (B)Rehoboam went to Shechem, for all Israel had gone to Shechem to make him king. So it happened, when Jeroboam the son of Nebat heard it (he was in Egypt, (C)where he had fled from the presence of King Solomon), that Jeroboam returned from Egypt. Then they sent for him and called him. And Jeroboam and all Israel came and spoke to Rehoboam, saying, “Your father made our yoke heavy; now therefore, lighten the burdensome service of your father and his heavy yoke which he put on us, and we will serve you.”

So he said to them, “Come back to me after three days.” And the people departed.

Then King Rehoboam consulted the elders who stood before his father Solomon while he still lived, saying, “How do you advise me to answer these people?”

And they spoke to him, saying, “If you are kind to these people, and please them, and speak good words to them, they will be your servants forever.”

(D)But he rejected the advice which the elders had given him, and consulted the young men who had grown up with him, who stood before him. And he said to them, “What advice do you give? How should we answer this people who have spoken to me, saying, ‘Lighten the yoke which your father put on us’?”

10 Then the young men who had grown up with him spoke to him, saying, “Thus you should speak to the people who have spoken to you, saying, ‘Your father made our yoke heavy, but you make it lighter on us’—thus you shall say to them: ‘My little finger shall be thicker than my father’s waist! 11 And now, whereas my father put a heavy yoke on you, I will add to your yoke; my father chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with [a]scourges!’ ”

12 So (E)Jeroboam and all the people came to Rehoboam on the third day, as the king had directed, saying, “Come back to me the third day.” 13 Then the king answered them roughly. King Rehoboam rejected the advice of the elders, 14 and he spoke to them according to the advice of the young men, saying, [b]“My father made your yoke heavy, but I will add to it; my father chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with [c]scourges!” 15 So the king did not listen to the people; (F)for the turn of events was from God, that the Lord might fulfill His (G)word, which He had spoken by the hand of Ahijah the Shilonite to Jeroboam the son of Nebat.

16 Now when all Israel saw that the king did not listen to them, the people answered the king, saying:

“What share have we in David?
We have no inheritance in the son of Jesse.
Every man to your tents, O Israel!
Now see to your own house, O David!”

So all Israel departed to their tents. 17 But Rehoboam reigned over the children of Israel who dwelt in the cities of Judah.

18 Then King Rehoboam sent Hadoram, who was in charge of revenue; but the children of Israel stoned him with stones, and he died. Therefore King Rehoboam mounted his chariot in haste to flee to Jerusalem. 19 (H)So Israel has been in rebellion against the house of David to this day.

10 ¶ Woboram moute lavil Sichèm, paske se la tout pèp Izrayèl la nèt te sanble pou fè li wa.

Lè Jewoboram, pitit gason Nebat la, ki te nan peyi Lejip kote li te al kache pou Salomon an, pran nouvèl la, li kite peyi Lejip, li tounen lakay li.

Moun branch fanmi ki nan nò peyi a voye chache l'. Yo tout ansanm, yo al jwenn Woboram, yo di l' konsa:

-Papa ou te di anpil ak nou. Li te peze nou anpil. Koulye a, fè yon leve men pou nou. Kite nou viv yon ti jan pi alèz, n'a sèvi ou nèt ale.

Woboram di yo: -Tounen nan twa jou. Lè sa a, m'a ban nou repons. Epi moun yo al fè wout yo.

Woboram menm al jwenn chèf fanmi ki te sèvi konseye pou Salomon, papa l', lè li t'ap viv la, li mande yo: -Kisa pou m' reponn pèp la? Ki konsèy nou ban mwen?

Yo reponn li: -Si ou aji byen ak pèp la, si ou asepte fè sa yo mande ou la, si ou pale byen ak yo, y'ap toujou sèvi ou,

Men, Woboram pa koute konsèy granmoun yo te ba li a, li al jwenn jenn gason ki te leve ansanm avè l' yo, lèfini ki te toujou la pou ba l' konsèy tou.

Li di yo: -Ki konsèy nou ta ban mwen? Kisa pou m' reponn pèp la k'ap mande m' pou m' fè yon leve men pou yo?

10 Jenn gason kanmarad li yo reponn li: -Men sa w'a di moun sa yo k'ap plenyen pou papa ou ki t'ap peze yo, epi k'ap mande ou fè yon leve men pou yo a. W'a di yo: Si papa m' te di ak nou, mwen menm m'ap pi di pase l'.

11 Wi, w'a di yo: Papa m' t'ap peze nou anba chay lou, mwen menm se mete m'ap mete sou chay la anko. Papa m' te bat nou ak fwèt, mwen menm m'ap pase fwèt la anba sann pou m' bat nou.

12 ¶ Twa jou apre vre, Jewoboram tounen ansanm ak tout moun Izrayèl yo vin jwenn wa Woboram, jan li te di yo a.

13 Wa a pa koute konsèy granmoun yo, li pale di ak pèp la.

14 Li reponn yo jan jenn gason yo te ba l' konsèy la. Li di yo: -Papa m' te peze nou anba chay lou, mwen menm, m'ap mete sou chay n'ap pote deja a. Papa m' te bat nou ak fwèt, mwen menm, m'ap pase fwèt la anba sann pou nou.

15 Se konsa wa a pa t' asepte fè sa pèp la te mande l' la. Sa se travay Seyè a menm ki te vle pou sa li te voye Akija, pwofèt Silo a, al di Jewoboram, pitit Nebat la, rive vre.

16 Lè pèp Izrayèl la wè wa a pa t' soti pou li fè sa yo te mande l' la, yo reponn wa a, yo di li: -Nou pa gen anyen pou nou wè ak David. Nou pa gen anyen pou n' separe ak pitit Izayi a. Nou menm pèp Izrayèl la, ann al lakay nou! Ann kite pitit David yo degaje yo pou kont yo ak fanmi yo! Se konsa moun pèp Izrayèl la vire do al lakay yo.

17 Yo kite Woboram pou li gouvènen sèlman sou moun ki rete nan pòsyon tè branch fanmi Jida a.

18 Apre sa, wa Woboram voye Adoram ki te reskonsab travay kòve yo al bò kote moun Izrayèl yo. Men, moun Izrayèl yo kalonnen li koutwòch jouk li mouri. Lè sa a, wa Woboram prese moute sou cha li, li kouri ale lavil Jerizalèm.

19 Depi lè sa a, moun pèp Izrayèl yo vire do bay moun fanmi David yo jouk jounen jòdi a.
