¹And it came to pass, when the kingdom of Rehoboam was established, and he was strong, that he forsook the law of Jehovah, and all Israel with him.

¹Aga kui Rehabeami valitsus oli kindlustatud ja ta ise vägevaks saanud, siis ta hülgas Issanda Seaduse, ja koos temaga kogu Iisrael.

²And it came to pass in the fifth year of king Rehoboam, that Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, because they had trespassed against Jehovah,

²Siis sündis, et Rehabeami viiendal aastal tuli Egiptuse kuningas Siisak üles Jeruusalemma kallale - sest need seal olid olnud truuduseta Issanda vastu -

³with twelve hundred chariots, and threescore thousand horsemen. And the people were without number that came with him out of Egypt: the Lubim, the Sukkiim, and the Ethiopians.

³koos tuhande kahesaja sõjavankriga ja kuuekümne tuhande ratsanikuga; ja lugematu oli rahvas, kes koos temaga Egiptusest tuli: liibüalased, sukkid ja etiooplased.

⁴And he took the fortified cities which pertained to Judah, and came unto Jerusalem.

⁴Ja ta vallutas Juudas olevad kindlustatud linnad ning tuli kuni Jeruusalemmani.

⁵Now Shemaiah the prophet came to Rehoboam, and to the princes of Judah, that were gathered together to Jerusalem because of Shishak, and said unto them, Thus saith Jehovah, Ye have forsaken me, therefore have I also left you in the hand of Shishak.

⁵Siis tuli prohvet Semaja Rehabeami ja Juuda vürstide juurde, kes olid Siisaki eest kogunenud Jeruusalemma, ja ütles neile: 'Nõnda ütleb Issand: Te olete hüljanud minu, seepärast olen minagi teid jätnud Siisaki kätte.'

⁶Then the princes of Israel and the king humbled themselves; and they said, Jehovah is righteous.

⁶Siis Iisraeli vürstid ja kuningas alandasid endid ning ütlesid: 'Issand on õiglane!'

⁷And when Jehovah saw that they humbled themselves, the word of Jehovah came to Shemaiah, saying, They have humbled themselves: 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.

⁷Ja kui Issand nägi, et nad endid alandasid, siis tuli Issanda sõna Semajale; ta ütles: 'Nad on endid alandanud. Mina ei hävita neid, vaid päästan nad varsti ega vala oma viha Jeruusalemma peale Siisaki käe läbi.

⁸Nevertheless they shall be his servants, that they may know my service, and the service of the kingdoms of the countries.

⁸Aga nad saavad tema alamaiks, et nad õpiksid tundma, mis tähendab teenida mind ja mis tähendab teenida maiseid kuningriike.'

⁹So Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, and took away the treasures of the house of Jehovah, and the treasures of the king's house: he took all away: he took away also the shields of gold which Solomon had made.

⁹Ja Siisak, Egiptuse kuningas, tuli Jeruusalemma kallale ning võttis ära Issanda koja varandused ja kuningakoja varandused - ta võttis kõik ära, ta võttis ära ka kuldkilbid, mis Saalomon oli teinud.

¹⁰And king Rehoboam made in their stead shields of brass, and committed them to the hands of the captains of the guard, that kept the door of the king's house.

¹⁰Siis kuningas Rehabeam tegi nende asemele vaskkilbid ja andis need ihukaitsepealikute hooleks, kes valvasid kuningakoja ust.

¹¹And it was so, that, as oft as the king entered into the house of Jehovah, the guard came and bare them, and brought them back into the guard-chamber.

¹¹Ja iga kord, kui kuningas läks Issanda kotta, tulid ihukaitsjad ja kandsid neid ja viisid need siis jälle tagasi ihukaitse ruumi.

¹²And when he humbled himself, the wrath of Jehovah turned from him, so as not to destroy him altogether: and moreover in Judah there were good things [found].

¹²Sellepärast, et ta ennast oli alandanud, pöördus Issanda viha temalt, et teda mitte sootuks hävitada; oli ju veel Juudaski mõndagi head.

¹³So king Rehoboam strengthened himself in Jerusalem, and reigned: for Rehoboam was forty and one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city which Jehovah had chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, to put his name there: and his mother's name was Naamah the Ammonitess.

¹³Ja kuningas Rehabeam kindlustas ennast Jeruusalemmas ning valitses edasi; sest Rehabeam oli kuningaks saades olnud nelikümmend üks aastat vana ja ta valitses seitseteist aastat Jeruusalemmas, linnas, mille Issand kõigist Iisraeli suguharudest oli valinud, et panna sinna oma nimi; ta ema oli ammonlanna Naama.

¹⁴And he did that which was evil, because he set not his heart to seek Jehovah.

¹⁴Aga ta tegi kurja, sest ta ei valmistanud oma südant Issandat otsima.

¹⁵Now the acts of Rehoboam, first and last, are they not written in the histories of Shemaiah the prophet and of Iddo the seer, after the manner of genealogies? And there were wars between Rehoboam and Jeroboam continually.

¹⁵Ja Rehabeami lood, varasemad ja hilisemad, eks need ole kirja pandud prohvet Semaja ja nägija Iddo lugudes, nõndasamuti see, mis puutub suguvõsakirjadesse? Rehabeami ja Jerobeami vahel olid kogu aja sõjad.

¹⁶And Rehoboam slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David: and Abijah his son reigned in his stead.

¹⁶Siis Rehabeam läks magama oma vanemate juurde ja ta maeti Taaveti linna. Ja tema poeg Abija sai tema asemel kuningaks.
