1Rehoboam went to Shechem; for all Israel had come to Shechem to make him king.
1Cô laj Roboam Siquem xban nak aran côeb chixjunileb laj Israel re teßxxakab chokß rey.
2It happened, when Jeroboam the son of Nebat heard of it, (for he was in Egypt, where he had fled from the presence of king Solomon), that Jeroboam returned out of Egypt.
2Laj Jeroboam, li ralal laj Nabat, cuan chak Egipto xban nak aran cô nak quiêlelic chiru li rey Salomón. Nak quirabi resil li cßaßru quicßulman, quisukßi cuißchic Jerusalén.
3They sent and called him; and Jeroboam and all Israel came, and they spoke to Rehoboam, saying,
3Queßxtakla xbokbal laj Jeroboam. Ut aßan quichal ut chixjunileb laj Israel queßâtinac riqßuin laj Roboam ut queßxye re:
4“Your father made our yoke grievous: now therefore make you the grievous service of your father, and his heavy yoke which he put on us, lighter, and we will serve you.”
4—Lâ yucuaß kßaxal cau xtaklan saß kabên. Abanan lâat naru tattaklânk chi kßun caßchßinak saß kabên re nak târûk tohilânk caßchßinak riqßuin li cacuil cßanjel quixqßue saß kabên lâ yucuaß. Cui tâbânu chi joßcan, lâo tocßanjelak châcuu, chanqueb.
5He said to them, “Come again to me after three days.” The people departed.
5Ut laj Roboam quixye reheb li tenamit: —Chiru oxib cutan texchâlk cuißchic cuiqßuin, chan. Ut eb li tenamit queßcôeb.
6King Rehoboam took counsel with the old men, who had stood before Solomon his father while he yet lived, saying, “What counsel do you give me to return answer to this people?”
6Ut li rey Roboam quixpatzß xnaßleb riqßuineb li chêquel cuînk li queßcßanjelac chiru lix yucuaß nak toj yoßyo. Quixpatzß reheb: —¿Cßaßru us tinsumeheb cuiß li tenamit? chan.
7They spoke to him, saying, “If you are kind to this people, and please them, and speak good words to them, then they will be your servants forever.”
7Ut eb li chêquel cuînk queßxye: —Cui lâat tattaklânk saß xbêneb li tenamit saß xyâlal, ut cui tâcuâtinaheb riqßuin kßunil âtin, eb aßan junelic teßcßanjelak châcuu, chanqueb.
8But he forsook the counsel of the old men which they had given him, and took counsel with the young men who had grown up with him, who stood before him.
8Abanan laj Roboam quixtzßektâna li naßleb li quiyeheß re xbaneb li chêquel cuînk. Cô ban riqßuineb li sâj cuînk li xeßqßui rochben, li nequeßcßanjelac chiru.
9He said to them, “What counsel do you give, that we may return answer to this people, who have spoken to me, saying, ‘Make the yoke that your father put on us lighter?’”
9Ut quixye reheb: —¿Cßaßru nequeye lâex? ¿Chanru nak tebinsume li tenamit aßin, li yôqueb chixyebal cue nak tincuisi li cacuil trabaj li quiqßueheß saß xbêneb xban lin yucuaß? chan.
10The young men who had grown up with him spoke to him, saying, “Thus you shall tell the people who spoke to you, saying, ‘Your father made our yoke heavy, but make it lighter on us;’ thus you shall say to them, ‘My little finger is thicker than my father’s waist.
10Eb li sâj cuînk li queßqßui rochben queßxye re laj Roboam: —Joßcaßin tâsumeheb cuiß li tenamit li yôqueb chixtzßâmanquil châcuu nak incßaß cau tattaklânk saß xbêneb. Lâat tâye reheb, “Cui lin yucuaß cau xtaklan saß êbên, lâin kßaxal cuißchic cau tintaklânk saß êbên.
11Now whereas my father burdened you with a heavy yoke, I will add to your yoke. My father chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.’”
11Cui lin yucuaß xqßue li cacuil trabaj saß êbên, lâin kßaxal cuißchic cau li trabaj tinqßue. Lin yucuaß xexsacß chi tzßûm, abanan lâin texinsacß riqßuin li tzßûm li cuan chßîchß saß rußuj,” chaßkat reheb.—
12So Jeroboam and all the people came to Rehoboam the third day, as the king asked, saying, “Come to me again the third day.”
12Saß rox li cutan eb li tenamit rochben laj Jeroboam queßchal riqßuin li rey Roboam xban nak joßcan quiyeheß reheb xban li rey.
13The king answered them roughly; and king Rehoboam forsook the counsel of the old men,
13Li rey Roboam cau quirâtinaheb li tenamit ut incßaß quixbânu li cßaßru quiyeheß re xbaneb li chêquel cuînk.
14and spoke to them after the counsel of the young men, saying, “My father made your yoke heavy, but I will add to it. My father chastised you with whips, but I will chastise you with scorpions.”
14Li rey quixye reheb li tenamit li cßaßru queßxye li sâj cuînk. Quixye reheb: —Lin yucuaß cau quitaklan saß êbên. Ut lâin kßaxal cuißchic cau tintaklânk saß êbên. Aßan riqßuin tzßûm quexrahobtesi. Abanan lâin riqßuin li tzßûm cuan chßîchß saß rußuj texinrahobtesi, chan.
15So the king didn’t listen to the people; for it was brought about of God, that Yahweh might establish his word, which he spoke by Ahijah the Shilonite to Jeroboam the son of Nebat.
15Li rey incßaß quixbânu li queßxtzßâma li tenamit xban nak ac joßcan chak saß xchßôl li Dios. Ut re ajcuiß nak tâtzßaklok ru li cßaßru quiyeheß re laj Jeroboam li ralal laj Nabat xban li profeta Ahías Silo xtenamit nak quixye re li cßaßru quixye li Dios.
16When all Israel saw that the king didn’t listen to them, the people answered the king, saying, “What portion have we in David? Neither have we inheritance in the son of Jesse! Every man to your tents, Israel! Now see to your own house, David.” So all Israel departed to their tents.
16Eb laj Israel queßril nak incßaß quirabi li rey li queßxtzßâma chiru. Eb aßan queßxye re: —¿Cßaßru takara lâo riqßuineb li ralal xcßajol laj David? Lâo mâcßaß junak cßaßak re ru teßxqßue ke. Joßcan nak lâo takil kib kajunes. Ut lâat taklan saß xbêneb li ralal xcßajol laj David, chanqueb. Ut eb aßan queßsukßi saß lix naßajeb.
17But as for the children of Israel who lived in the cities of Judah, Rehoboam reigned over them.
17Joßcan nak laj Roboam quitaklan caßaj cuiß saß xbêneb laj Israel li cuanqueb saß li naßajej Judá.
18Then king Rehoboam sent Hadoram, who was over the men subject to forced labor; and the children of Israel stoned him to death with stones. King Rehoboam made speed to get himself up to his chariot, to flee to Jerusalem.
18Li rey Roboam quixtakla laj Adoram, li xakabanbil chi taklânc saß xbêneb li qßuebileb chi cßanjelac chi cua. Abanan laj Adoram quicamsîc chi pec xbaneb laj Israel. Tojoßnak laj Roboam quiêlelic. Qui-oc saß xcarruaje ut cô Jerusalén.Joßcaßin nak queßrisi ribeb laj Israel rubel xcuanquil li ralal xcßajol laj David toj chalen anakcuan.
19So Israel rebelled against the house of David to this day.
19Joßcaßin nak queßrisi ribeb laj Israel rubel xcuanquil li ralal xcßajol laj David toj chalen anakcuan.
