ISTORIA ÎMPĂRĂŢIEI LUI IUDA, DE LA DEZBINARE PÂNĂ LA ROBIE
Capitolele 10—36. Ieremia 25:4-11.
Dezbinarea împărăţiei
10 Roboam(A) s-a dus la Sihem, căci tot Israelul venise la Sihem să-l facă împărat. 2 Când a auzit lucrul acesta, Ieroboam, fiul lui Nebat, era în Egipt, unde(B) fugise de împăratul Solomon, şi s-a întors din Egipt. 3 Au trimis să-l cheme. Atunci, Ieroboam şi tot Israelul au venit la Roboam şi i-au vorbit aşa: 4 „Tatăl tău ne-a îngreuiat jugul, acum uşurează această aspră robie şi jugul greu pe care l-a pus peste noi tatăl tău. Şi îţi vom sluji.” 5 El le-a zis: „Întoarceţi-vă la mine după trei zile.” Şi poporul a plecat. 6 Împăratul Roboam a întrebat pe bătrânii care fuseseră cu tatăl său, Solomon, în timpul vieţii lui şi a zis: „Ce mă sfătuiţi să răspund poporului acestuia?” 7 Şi iată ce i-au zis ei: „Dacă vei fi bun cu poporul acesta, dacă-i vei primi bine şi dacă le vei vorbi cu bunăvoinţă, îţi vor sluji pe vecie.” 8 Dar Roboam a lăsat sfatul pe care i-l dădeau bătrânii şi a întrebat pe tinerii care crescuseră cu el şi care-l înconjurau. 9 El le-a zis: „Ce mă sfătuiţi să răspund poporului acestuia care-mi vorbeşte astfel: ‘Uşurează jugul pe care l-a pus tatăl tău peste noi’?” 10 Şi iată ce i-au zis tinerii care crescuseră cu el: „Aşa să vorbeşti poporului acestuia care ţi-a vorbit aşa: ‘Tatăl tău ne-a îngreuiat jugul, iar tu uşurează-ni-l!’ să le vorbeşti aşa: ‘Degetul meu cel mic este mai gros decât coapsele tatălui meu. 11 Acum, tatăl meu a pus peste voi un jug greu, dar eu îl voi face şi mai greu; tatăl meu v-a pedepsit cu bice, dar eu vă voi pedepsi cu scorpioane’.” 12 Ieroboam şi tot poporul au venit la Roboam a treia zi, după cum le spusese împăratul: „Întoarceţi-vă la mine peste trei zile.” 13 Împăratul le-a răspuns aspru. Împăratul Roboam a lăsat sfatul bătrânilor 14 şi le-a vorbit aşa, după sfatul tinerilor: „Tatăl meu v-a îngreuiat jugul, dar eu îl voi îngreuia şi mai mult; tatăl meu v-a pedepsit cu bice, dar eu vă voi pedepsi cu scorpioane.” 15 Astfel, împăratul n-a ascultat pe popor, căci(C) aşa rânduise Dumnezeu în vederea împlinirii cuvântului pe care-l spusese Domnul prin Ahia(D) din Silo lui Ieroboam, fiul lui Nebat. 16 Când a văzut tot Israelul că împăratul nu-l ascultă, poporul a răspuns împăratului: „Ce parte avem noi cu David? Noi n-avem nicio moştenire cu fiul lui Isai! La corturile tale, Israele! Acum, vezi-ţi de casă, Davide!” Şi tot Israelul s-a dus în corturile lui. 17 Copiii lui Israel care locuiau în cetăţile lui Iuda au fost singurii peste care a domnit Roboam. 18 Atunci, împăratul Roboam a trimis pe Hadoram, care era mai-mare peste dări. Hadoram a fost împroşcat cu pietre de copiii lui Israel şi a murit. Şi împăratul Roboam s-a(E) grăbit şi s-a suit într-un car, ca să fugă la Ierusalim. 19 Astfel s-a dezlipit Israel de casa lui David până în ziua de azi.

The Revolt Against Rehoboam
10 (A)Rehoboam went to Shechem, for all Israel had come to Shechem to make him king. 2 And as soon as Jeroboam the son of Nebat heard of it (for he was in Egypt, (B)where he had fled from King Solomon), then Jeroboam returned from Egypt. 3 And they sent and called him. And Jeroboam and all Israel came and said to Rehoboam, 4 (C)“Your father made our yoke heavy. Now therefore lighten the hard service of your father and his heavy yoke on us, and we will serve you.” 5 He said to them, “Come to me again in three days.” So the people went away.
6 Then King Rehoboam took counsel with the old men,[a] who had stood before Solomon his father while he was yet alive, saying, “How do you advise me to answer this people?” 7 And they said to him, (D)“If you will be good to this people and please them and speak good words to them, then they will be your servants forever.” 8 But he abandoned the counsel that the old men gave him, and took counsel with the young men who had grown up with him and stood before him. 9 And he said to them, “What do you advise that we answer this people who have said to me, ‘Lighten the yoke that your father put on us’?” 10 And the young men who had grown up with him said to him, “Thus shall you speak to the people who said to you, ‘Your father made our yoke heavy, but you lighten it for us’; thus shall you say to them, ‘My little finger is thicker than my father's thighs. 11 And now, whereas my father laid on you a heavy yoke, I will add to your yoke. My father disciplined you with whips, but I will discipline you with scorpions.’”
12 So Jeroboam and all the people came to Rehoboam the third day, as the king said, “Come to me again the third day.” 13 And the king answered them harshly; and forsaking the counsel of the old men, 14 King Rehoboam spoke to them according to the counsel of the young men, saying, “My father made your yoke heavy, but I will add to it. My father disciplined you with whips, but I will discipline you with scorpions.” 15 So the king did not listen to the people, for it was a turn of affairs brought about by God that the Lord might fulfill his word, (E)which he spoke by Ahijah the Shilonite to Jeroboam the son of Nebat.
16 And when all Israel saw that the king did not listen to them, the people answered the king, “What portion have we in David? We have no inheritance in the son of Jesse. (F)Each of you to your tents, O Israel! Look now to your own house, David.” So all Israel went to their tents. 17 But Rehoboam reigned over the people of Israel who lived in the cities of Judah. 18 Then King Rehoboam sent (G)Hadoram,[b] who was taskmaster over the forced labor, and the people of Israel stoned him to death with stones. And King Rehoboam quickly mounted his chariot to flee to Jerusalem. 19 So Israel has been in rebellion against the house of David to this day.

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.
