罗波安违弃耆老之谋
10 罗波安往示剑去,因为以色列人都到了示剑,要立他做王。 2 尼八的儿子耶罗波安先前躲避所罗门王,逃往埃及,住在那里,他听见这事,就从埃及回来。 3 以色列人打发人去请他,他就和以色列众人来见罗波安,对他说: 4 “你父亲使我们负重轭做苦工,现在求你使我们做的苦工、负的重轭轻松些,我们就侍奉你。” 5 罗波安对他们说:“第三日再来见我吧。”民就去了。
6 罗波安之父所罗门在世的日子,有侍立在他面前的老年人,罗波安王和他们商议,说:“你们给我出个什么主意,我好回复这民。” 7 老年人对他说:“王若恩待这民,使他们喜悦,用好话回复他们,他们就永远做王的仆人。” 8 王却不用老年人给他出的主意,就和那些与他一同长大,在他面前侍立的少年人商议, 9 说:“这民对我说:‘你父亲使我们负重轭,求你使我们轻松些。’你们给我出个什么主意,我好回复他们。” 10 那同他长大的少年人说:“这民对王说:‘你父亲使我们负重轭,求你使我们轻松些。’王要对他们如此说:‘我的小拇指比我父亲的腰还粗! 11 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,我要用蝎子鞭责打你们。’”
12 耶罗波安和众百姓遵着罗波安王所说“你们第三日再来见我”的那话,第三日他们果然来了。 13 罗波安王用严厉的话回复他们,不用老年人所出的主意, 14 照着少年人所出的主意对他们说:“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,我要用蝎子鞭责打你们。” 15 王不肯依从百姓,这事乃出于神,为要应验耶和华借示罗人亚希雅对尼八儿子耶罗波安所说的话。
以色列人叛
16 以色列众民见王不依从他们,就对王说:“我们与大卫有什么份儿呢?与耶西的儿子并没有关涉!以色列人哪,各回各家去吧!大卫家啊,自己顾自己吧!”于是,以色列众人都回自己家里去了。 17 唯独住在犹大城邑的以色列人,罗波安仍做他们的王。 18 罗波安王差遣掌管服苦之人的哈多兰往以色列人那里去,以色列人就用石头打死他。罗波安王急忙上车,逃回耶路撒冷去了。 19 这样,以色列人背叛大卫家,直到今日。

北方支派背叛罗波安
10 罗波安前往示剑,因为以色列人都去了那里要立他为王。 2 尼八的儿子耶罗波安曾为了躲避所罗门王而逃往埃及,并一直住在那里。他听到消息便返回以色列。 3 以色列人派人去请他,他就和以色列众人去见罗波安,说: 4 “你父亲使我们负担沉重,求你减轻我们的负担吧,我们一定效忠你。” 5 罗波安对他们说:“你们三天之后再来见我。”众人就离开了。
6 罗波安王去征询曾服侍他父亲所罗门的老臣的意见,说:“你们认为我该怎样回复这些百姓?” 7 他们回禀说:“王若善待这些百姓,使他们喜悦,对他们好言相待,他们会永远做王的仆人。”
8 罗波安却没有采纳老臣的意见。他又去征询那些和他一起长大的青年臣僚的意见, 9 说:“百姓求我减轻我父亲加给他们的重担。你们认为我该怎样回复他们?” 10 他们说:“百姓说你父亲使他们负担沉重,请求你减轻他们的负担。你可以这样回复他们,‘我的小指头比我父亲的腰还粗。 11 我父亲使你们负重担,我要使你们负更重的担子;我父亲用鞭子打你们,我要用刺鞭打你们。’”
12 过了三天,耶罗波安和百姓遵照罗波安王的话来见他。 13-14 罗波安王没有采纳老臣的建议,而是照青年臣僚的建议,疾言厉色地对他们说:“我父亲使你们负重担,我要使你们负更重的担子!我父亲用鞭子打你们,我要用刺鞭打你们!” 15 王不听百姓的请求。这事出于耶和华上帝,为要应验祂借示罗人亚希雅先知对尼八的儿子耶罗波安说的话。
16 以色列人见王不听他们的请求,就说:
“我们与大卫有何相干?
我们与耶西的儿子没有关系!
以色列人啊,各自回家吧!
大卫家啊,自己照顾自己吧!”
于是,以色列人都各自回家了。 17 但住在犹大城邑的以色列人仍受罗波安统治。 18 罗波安王派劳役总管哈多兰去以色列人那里,以色列人却用石头打死了他,罗波安王连忙上车逃回耶路撒冷。 19 从此,以色列人反叛大卫家,直到今天。

Rehoboam Acts Foolishly
10 Rehoboam went to Shechem because all the Israelites had gone there to make him king. 2 Jeroboam son of Nebat was in Egypt. He had gone there to run away from King Solomon. Jeroboam heard that Rehoboam was going to be the new king. So he returned from Egypt. 3 The people sent for Jeroboam. Then he and the people went to Rehoboam. They said to Rehoboam, 4 “Your father forced us to work very hard. Now, make it easier for us. Don’t make us work as hard as your father did. Then we will serve you.”
5 Rehoboam answered, “Come back to me in three days.” So the people left.
6 There were some elders who had helped Solomon make decisions during his lifetime. So King Rehoboam asked them what he should do. He said, “How do you think I should answer these people?”
7 They answered, “Be kind to these people. Please them and give them a kind answer. If you do, they will serve you always.”
8 But Rehoboam did not listen to the advice the elders gave him. He talked with the young men who had grown up with him. They advised him in making decisions. 9 Rehoboam asked them, “What is your advice? How should we answer these people? They said, ‘Don’t make us work as hard as your father did.’”
10 Then the young men who had grown up with him said, “The people said to you, ‘Your father forced us to work very hard. Now make our work easier.’ But you should tell those people, ‘My little finger is thicker than my father’s waist. 11 My father forced you to work hard. But I will make you work even harder. My father beat you with whips. But I will beat you with whips that have sharp points.’”
12 King Rehoboam had told the people, “Come back to me in three days.” So three days later Jeroboam and all the people returned to Rehoboam. 13 Then King Rehoboam spoke to them in a cruel way. He did not take the advice of the elders. 14 He followed the advice of the young men. He said, “My father forced you to work hard. But I will give you even more work. My father beat you with whips. But I will beat you with whips that have sharp points.” 15 So King Rehoboam did not do what the people wanted. God caused this to happen. He did this so the Lord could keep his promise to Jeroboam son of Nebat. The Lord had made this promise through Ahijah, a prophet from Shiloh.
16 The people of Israel saw that King Rehoboam did not listen to them. So they said to the king,
“We have no share in David.
We have no part in the son of Jesse.
People of Israel, let’s go to our own homes!
Let David’s son rule his own people.”
So all the Israelites went home. 17 But Rehoboam still ruled over the Israelites who lived in the towns of Judah.
18 Adoniram was in charge of the people who were forced to work. Rehoboam sent him to the people. But they threw stones at Adoniram until he died. But King Rehoboam was able to run to his chariot and escape to Jerusalem. 19 Since then, Israel has always turned against the family of David.
2 Chronicles 10
King James Version
10 And Rehoboam went to Shechem: for to Shechem were all Israel come to make him king.
2 And it came to pass, when Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who was in Egypt, whither he fled from the presence of Solomon the king, heard it, that Jeroboam returned out of Egypt.
3 And they sent and called him. So Jeroboam and all Israel came and spake to Rehoboam, saying,
4 Thy father made our yoke grievous: now therefore ease thou somewhat the grievous servitude of thy father, and his heavy yoke that he put upon us, and we will serve thee.
5 And he said unto them, Come again unto me after three days. And the people departed.
6 And king Rehoboam took counsel with the old men that had stood before Solomon his father while he yet lived, saying, What counsel give ye me to return answer to this people?
7 And they spake unto him, saying, If thou be kind to this people, and please them, and speak good words to them, they will be thy servants for ever.
8 But he forsook the counsel which the old men gave him, and took counsel with the young men that were brought up with him, that stood before him.
9 And he said unto them, What advice give ye that we may return answer to this people, which have spoken to me, saying, Ease somewhat the yoke that thy father did put upon us?
10 And the young men that were brought up with him spake unto him, saying, Thus shalt thou answer the people that spake unto thee, saying, Thy father made our yoke heavy, but make thou it somewhat lighter for us; thus shalt thou say unto them, My little finger shall be thicker than my father's loins.
11 For whereas my father put a heavy yoke upon you, I will put more to your yoke: my father chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.
12 So Jeroboam and all the people came to Rehoboam on the third day, as the king bade, saying, Come again to me on the third day.
13 And the king answered them roughly; and king Rehoboam forsook the counsel of the old men,
14 And answered them after the advice of the young men, saying, My father made your yoke heavy, but I will add thereto: my father chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.
15 So the king hearkened not unto the people: for the cause was of God, that the Lord might perform his word, which he spake by the hand of Ahijah the Shilonite to Jeroboam the son of Nebat.
16 And when all Israel saw that the king would not hearken unto them, the people answered the king, saying, What portion have we in David? and we have none inheritance in the son of Jesse: every man to your tents, O Israel: and now, David, see to thine own house. So all Israel went to their tents.
17 But as for the children of Israel that dwelt in the cities of Judah, Rehoboam reigned over them.
18 Then king Rehoboam sent Hadoram that was over the tribute; and the children of Israel stoned him with stones, that he died. But king Rehoboam made speed to get him up to his chariot, to flee to Jerusalem.
19 And Israel rebelled against the house of David unto this day.
2 Chronicles 10
New International Version
Israel Rebels Against Rehoboam(A)
10 Rehoboam went to Shechem, for all Israel had gone there to make him king. 2 When Jeroboam(B) son of Nebat heard this (he was in Egypt, where he had fled(C) from King Solomon), he returned from Egypt. 3 So they sent for Jeroboam, and he and all Israel(D) went to Rehoboam and said to him: 4 “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.”
5 Rehoboam answered, “Come back to me in three days.” So the people went away.
6 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.
7 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.”
8 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. 9 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.
