羅波安離棄耶和華(A)
12 羅波安的王位穩定，他也強盛起來，就離棄了耶和華的律法，全體以色列人也都跟隨他。 2 羅波安王第五年，埃及王示撒上來攻打耶路撒冷，因為他們得罪了耶和華。 3 示撒率領戰車一千二百輛，馬兵六萬，和他一同從埃及出來的路比人、蘇基人和古實人，多得無法數算。 4 他攻取了猶大境內的設防城，然後來到耶路撒冷。 5 那時，猶大的眾領袖，因為示撒的緣故，就聚集在耶路撒冷；示瑪雅先知就來見羅波安和眾領袖，對他們說：“耶和華這樣說：‘你們既然離棄了我，所以我也離棄你們，把你們交在示撒的手裡。’” 6 於是以色列的眾領袖和君王，都謙卑下來，說：“耶和華是公義的。”
7 耶和華看見他們謙卑下來，耶和華的話就臨到示瑪雅，說：“他們既然謙卑下來，我就不滅絕他們；我必使他們暫時得救，我必不藉著示撒把我的烈怒傾倒在耶路撒冷。 8 雖然這樣，他們仍必作示撒的僕人，好使他們知道，服事我和服事世上的列國有甚麼分別。”
掠奪聖殿與王宮的寶物(B)
9 於是埃及王示撒上來攻打耶路撒冷，奪取了耶和華殿和王宮裡的寶物，把它們全部帶走，又奪去了所羅門所做的金盾牌。 10 羅波安王做了一些銅盾牌代替那些金盾牌，交給那些看守宮門的守衛長看管。 11 每逢王進耶和華殿的時候，守衛就來拿這些盾牌，事後又把盾牌送回守衛房那裡。 12 王既然謙卑下來，耶和華的烈怒就止息，沒有把他完全消滅。何況在猶大中還有善事。
13 羅波安王在耶路撒冷漸漸強盛，繼續作王。羅波安登基的時候是四十一歲；他在耶和華從以色列眾支派中選出來，立下他名的耶路撒冷城中，作王十七年。羅波安的母親名叫拿瑪，是亞捫人。 14 羅波安行惡，因為他沒有定意尋求耶和華。
羅波安逝世(C)
15 羅波安的事蹟，一生的始末，不是都記在示瑪雅先知，和先見易多有關家譜的記錄上嗎？羅波安和耶羅波安二人常有爭戰。 16 羅波安和他的列祖同睡，埋葬在大衛城裡。他的兒子亞比雅（“亞比雅”是“亞比央”的另一種寫法；參王上14:31）接續他作王。

埃及侵犯猶大
12 羅波安王位穩定、國勢強盛後，就離棄耶和華的律法，以色列人也都隨從他。 2 羅波安王執政第五年，埃及王示撒上來攻打耶路撒冷，因為猶大君民對耶和華不忠。 3 示撒率領一千二百輛戰車、六萬騎兵及無數的路比人、蘇基人和古實人。 4 他攻陷了猶大的堅城，直逼耶路撒冷。
5 那時，猶大各首領因為戰事都聚集在耶路撒冷。示瑪雅先知去見羅波安和眾首領，對他們說：「耶和華說，『你們背棄了我，所以我也要離棄你們，把你們交在示撒手中。』」 6 王與以色列的眾首領聽了，就謙卑下來說：「耶和華是公義的。」 7 耶和華見他們謙卑下來，就對示瑪雅說：「既然他們謙卑下來，我就不滅絕他們，給他們留一條生路。我也不會藉示撒向耶路撒冷傾倒我的憤怒。 8 然而，他們必做示撒的僕人，好讓他們體驗事奉我和服侍世上的君王的不同。」
9 埃及王示撒帶兵攻陷了耶路撒冷，把耶和華殿裡和王宮裡的財寶及所羅門造的金盾牌擄掠一空。 10 羅波安王就造了銅盾牌代替金盾牌，交給看守宮門的護衛長看管。 11 每次王進耶和華的殿，護衛兵就帶上盾牌，用完後放回護衛房。 12 王謙卑下來後，耶和華便不再向他發怒，沒有將他完全毀滅。況且，在猶大還有一些善事。
羅波安逝世
13 羅波安王在耶路撒冷鞏固了自己的勢力，繼續做王。他四十一歲登基，在耶路撒冷執政十七年。耶和華從以色列眾支派中選擇耶路撒冷作為立祂名的城。羅波安的母親叫拿瑪，是亞捫人。 14 羅波安行為邪惡，因為他不專心尋求耶和華。
15 他執政期間的事件自始至終都記在示瑪雅先知和易多先見的史記上。羅波安與耶羅波安之間常有爭戰。 16 羅波安與祖先同眠後，葬在大衛城。他兒子亞比雅繼位。
2 Crónicas 12
Traducción en lenguaje actual
El rey de Egipto conquista Judá (1 R 14.21-31)
12 1-9 En cuanto Roboam se dio cuenta de que su reino era firme y poderoso, él y todo el pueblo de Israel dejaron de obedecer la ley de Dios. Por esa razón, cuando Roboam cumplió cinco años en el reinado, Dios permitió que Sisac, rey de Egipto, conquistara a los israelitas.
Sisac tenía un ejército de mil doscientos carros de combate y sesenta mil jinetes; además, venían con él soldados libios, suquienos y etíopes, en tal cantidad que no se podían contar.
El rey de Egipto fue conquistando, una tras otra, las ciudades y fortalezas de Judá, y finalmente llegó hasta Jerusalén. Los principales jefes de Judá se habían reunido allí con Roboam, y fue entonces cuando el profeta Semaías les dijo: «Éste es el mensaje de Dios para ustedes: “Como se olvidaron de mí, ahora yo los abandono y los dejo bajo el poder de Sisac”».
Entonces los jefes y el rey reconocieron con humildad su maldad y confesaron: «¡El castigo de Dios es justo!»
Cuando Dios se dio cuenta de que habían reconocido con humildad su pecado, les mandó este mensaje por medio de Semaías:
«Ustedes han sido humildes al reconocer su pecado, y por eso no dejaré que Sisac destruya por completo Jerusalén. En poco tiempo los liberaré de su poder. Sin embargo, para que sepan cuán diferente es servirme a mí, que servir a los reyes de este mundo, serán servidores del rey de Egipto».
Entonces Sisac atacó y conquistó a Jerusalén. Se llevó todos los tesoros del templo de Dios y del palacio real, incluyendo los escudos de oro que había hecho Salomón. 10 Luego Roboam hizo escudos de bronce en lugar de los de oro, y los puso al cuidado de los oficiales que vigilaban la entrada de su palacio. 11 Cada vez que el rey iba al templo, los vigilantes llevaban los escudos. Cuando regresaban, los ponían de nuevo en el cuartel.
12 Sin embargo, como Roboam se había humillado, Dios no permitió que Jerusalén fuera totalmente destruida, pues aún había algo bueno en Judá. 13 De hecho, Roboam recuperó su poder y siguió reinando en Jerusalén, que era la ciudad que Dios había elegido de entre todas las tribus de Israel, para vivir en ella.
Roboam tenía cuarenta y un años de edad cuando comenzó a reinar, y su reinado duró diecisiete años. Su madre se llamaba Naamá, y era amonita. 14 Pero su conducta fue mala, pues no obedeció a Dios con sinceridad.
Muerte de Roboam
15-16 Roboam y Jeroboam siempre estuvieron en guerra. La historia de Roboam, de principio a fin, está escrita en estos libros: «Las historias del profeta Semaías» y «Los mensajes del profeta Iddo».
17 Cuando Roboam murió, lo enterraron en la Ciudad de David, en la tumba de sus antepasados. Su hijo Abiam reinó en su lugar.
2 Chronicles 12
King James Version
12 And it came to pass, when Rehoboam had established the kingdom, and had strengthened himself, he forsook the law of the Lord, and all Israel with him.
2 And it came to pass, that in the fifth year of king Rehoboam Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, because they had transgressed against the Lord,
3 With twelve hundred chariots, and threescore thousand horsemen: and the people were without number that came with him out of Egypt; the Lubims, the Sukkiims, and the Ethiopians.
4 And he took the fenced cities which pertained to Judah, and came to Jerusalem.
5 Then came Shemaiah the prophet to Rehoboam, and to the princes of Judah, that were gathered together to Jerusalem because of Shishak, and said unto them, Thus saith the Lord, Ye have forsaken me, and therefore have I also left you in the hand of Shishak.
6 Whereupon the princes of Israel and the king humbled themselves; and they said, The Lord is righteous.
7 And when the Lord saw that they humbled themselves, the word of the Lord came to Shemaiah, saying, They have humbled themselves; therefore I will not destroy them, but I will grant them some deliverance; and my wrath shall not be poured out upon Jerusalem by the hand of Shishak.
8 Nevertheless they shall be his servants; that they may know my service, and the service of the kingdoms of the countries.
9 So Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, and took away the treasures of the house of the Lord, and the treasures of the king's house; he took all: he carried away also the shields of gold which Solomon had made.
10 Instead of which king Rehoboam made shields of brass, and committed them to the hands of the chief of the guard, that kept the entrance of the king's house.
11 And when the king entered into the house of the Lord, the guard came and fetched them, and brought them again into the guard chamber.
12 And when he humbled himself, the wrath of the Lord turned from him, that he would not destroy him altogether: and also in Judah things went well.
13 So king Rehoboam strengthened himself in Jerusalem, and reigned: for Rehoboam was one and forty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city which the Lord had chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, to put his name there. And his mother's name was Naamah an Ammonitess.
14 And he did evil, because he prepared not his heart to seek the Lord.
15 Now the acts of Rehoboam, first and last, are they not written in the book of Shemaiah the prophet, and of Iddo the seer concerning genealogies? And there were wars between Rehoboam and Jeroboam continually.
16 And Rehoboam slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David: and Abijah his son reigned in his stead.
2 Chronicles 12
The Message
12 By the time Rehoboam had secured his kingdom and was strong again, he, and all Israel with him, had virtually abandoned God and his ways.
* * *
2-4 In Rehoboam’s fifth year, because he and the people were unfaithful to God, Shishak king of Egypt invaded as far as Jerusalem. He came with twelve hundred chariots and sixty thousand cavalry, and soldiers from all over—the Egyptian army included Libyans, Sukkites, and Ethiopians. They took the fortress cities of Judah and advanced as far as Jerusalem itself.
5 Then the prophet Shemaiah, accompanied by the leaders of Judah who had retreated to Jerusalem before Shishak, came to Rehoboam and said, “God’s word: You abandoned me; now I abandon you to Shishak.”
6 The leaders of Israel and the king were repentant and said, “God is right.”
7-8 When God saw that they were humbly repentant, the word of God came to Shemaiah: “Because they are humble, I’ll not destroy them—I’ll give them a break; I won’t use Shishak to express my wrath against Jerusalem. What I will do, though, is make them Shishak’s subjects—they’ll learn the difference between serving me and serving human kings.”
9 Then Shishak king of Egypt attacked Jerusalem. He plundered the treasury of The Temple of God and the treasury of the royal palace—he took everything he could lay his hands on. He even took the gold shields that Solomon had made.
10-11 King Rehoboam replaced the gold shields with bronze shields and gave them to the guards who were posted at the entrance to the royal palace. Whenever the king went to God’s Temple, the guards went with him carrying the shields, but they always returned them to the guardroom.
12 Because Rehoboam was repentant, God’s anger was blunted, so he wasn’t totally destroyed. The picture wasn’t entirely bleak—there were some good things going on in Judah.
13-14 King Rehoboam regrouped and reestablished his rule in Jerusalem. He was forty-one years old when he became king and continued as king for seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city God chose out of all the tribes of Israel as the special presence of his Name. His mother was Naamah from Ammon. But the final verdict on Rehoboam was that he was a bad king—God was not important to him; his heart neither cared for nor sought after God.
15-16 The history of Rehoboam, from start to finish, is written in the memoirs of Shemaiah the prophet and Iddo the seer that contain the family trees. There was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam the whole time. Rehoboam died and was buried with his ancestors in the City of David. His son Abijah ruled after him.
