WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Καὶ ἦλθε Ῥοβοὰμ εἰς Ἱερουσαλὴμ, καὶ ἐξεκκλησίασε τὸν Ἰούδαν καὶ Βενιαμὶν ἑκατὸν ὀγδοήκοντα χιλιάδας νεανίσκων ποιούντων πόλεμον, καὶ ἐπολέμει πρὸς Ἰσραὴλ τοῦ ἐπιστρέψαι τὴν βασιλείαν τῷ Ῥοβοάμ.
1 Y COMO vino Roboam á Jerusalem, juntó la casa de Judá y de Benjamín, ciento y ochenta mil hombres escogidos de guerra, para pelear contra Israel y volver el reino á Roboam.
1 When Rehoboam had come to Jerusalem, he assembled the house of Judah and Benjamin, one hundred eighty thousand chosen men who were warriors, to fight against Israel, to bring the kingdom again to Rehoboam.
2 Καὶ ἐγένετο λόγος Κυρίου πρὸς Σαμαίαν ἄνθρωπον τοῦ Θεοῦ, λέγων,
2 Mas fué palabra de Jehová á Semeías varón de Dios, diciendo:
2 But Yahweh’s word came to Shemaiah the man of God, saying,
3 εἶπον πρὸς Ῥοβοὰμ τὸν τοῦ Σαλωμὼν καὶ πάντα Ἰούδαν καὶ Βενιαμὶν, λέγων,
3 Habla á Roboam hijo de Salomón, rey de Judá, y á todos los Israelitas en Judá y Benjamín, diciéndoles:
3 “Speak to Rehoboam the son of Solomon, king of Judah, and to all Israel in Judah and Benjamin, saying,
4 τάδε λέγει Κύριος, οὐκ ἀναβήσεσθε, καὶ οὐ πολεμήσεσθε πρὸς τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς ὑμῶν· ἀποστρέφετε ἕκαστος εἰς τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ, ὅτι παρʼ ἐμοῦ ἐγένετο τὸ ῥῆμα τοῦτο· καὶ ἐπήκουσαν τοῦ λόγου Κυρίου, καὶ ἀπεστράφησαν τοῦ μὴ πορευθῆναι ἐπὶ Ἱεροβοάμ.
4 Así ha dicho Jehová: No subáis ni peleéis contra vuestros hermanos; vuélvase cada uno á su casa, porque yo he hecho este negocio. Y ellos oyeron la palabra de Jehová, y tornáronse, y no fueron contra Jeroboam.
4 ‘Yahweh says, “You shall not go up, nor fight against your brothers! Every man return to his house; for this thing is of me.”’” So they listened to Yahweh’s words, and returned from going against Jeroboam.
5 Καὶ κατῴκησε Ῥοβοὰμ εἰς Ἱερουσαλὴμ, καὶ ᾠκοδόμησε πόλεις τειχήρεις ἐν τῇ Ἰουδαίᾳ.
5 Y habitó Roboam en Jerusalem, y edificó ciudades para fortificar á Judá.
5 Rehoboam lived in Jerusalem, and built cities for defense in Judah.
6 Καὶ ᾠκοδόμησε τὴν Βηθλεὲμ, καὶ Αἰτὰν, καὶ Θεκωὲ,
6 Y edificó á Beth-lehem, y á Etham, y á Tecoa,
6 He built Bethlehem, Etam, Tekoa,
7 καὶ Βαιθσουρὰ, καὶ τὴν Σοχὼθ, καὶ τὴν Ὀδολλὰμ,
7 Y á Beth-sur, y á Sochô, y á Adullam,
7 Beth Zur, Soco, Adullam,
8 καὶ τὴν Γὲθ, καὶ τὴν Μαρισὰν, καὶ τὴν Ζὶφ,
8 Y á Gath, y á Maresa, y á Ziph,
8 Gath, Mareshah, Ziph,
9 καὶ τὴν Ἀδωραὶ, καὶ Λαχὶς, καὶ τὴν Ἀζηκά,
9 Y á Adoraim, y á Lachîs, y á Acechâ,
9 Adoraim, Lachish, Azekah,
10 καὶ τὴν Σαραὰ, καὶ τὴν Αἰλὼμ, καὶ τὴν Χεβρὼν, ἥ ἐστι τοῦ Ἰούδα καὶ Βενιαμὶν, πόλεις τειχήρεις.
10 Y á Sora, y á Ajalón, y á Hebrón, que eran en Judá y en Benjamín, ciudades fuertes.
10 Zorah, Aijalon, and Hebron, which are fortified cities in Judah and in Benjamin.
11 Καὶ ὠχύρωσεν αὐτὰς τειχήρεις, καὶ ἔδωκεν ἐν αὐταῖς ἡγουμένους, καὶ παραθέσεις βρωμάτων, ἔλαιον καὶ οἶνον,
11 Fortificó también las fortalezas, y puso en ellas capitanes, y vituallas, y vino, y aceite;
11 He fortified the strongholds and put captains in them with stores of food, oil and wine.
12 κατὰ πόλιν καὶ κατὰ πόλιν θυρεοὺς καὶ δόρατα, καὶ κατίσχυσεν αὐτὰς εἰς πλῆθος σφόδρα· καὶ ἦσαν αὐτῷ Ἰούδα καὶ Βενιαμίν.
12 Y en todas las ciudades, escudos y lanzas. Fortificólas pues en gran manera, y Judá y Benjamín le estaban sujetos.
12 He put shields and spears in every city, and made them exceedingly strong. Judah and Benjamin belonged to him.
13 Καὶ οἱ ἱερεῖς καὶ οἱ Λευῖται οἳ ἦσαν ἐν παντὶ Ἰσραὴλ συνήχθησαν πρὸς αὐτὸν ἐκ πάντων τῶν ὁρίων·
13 Y los sacerdotes y Levitas que estaban en todo Israel, se juntaron á él de todos sus términos.
13 The priests and the Levites who were in all Israel stood with him out of all their territory.
14 Ὅτι ἐγκατέλιπον οἱ Λευῖται τὰ σκηνώματα τῆς κατασχέσεως αὐτῶν, καὶ ἐπορεύθησαν πρὸς Ἰούδα εἰς Ἱερουσαλὴμ, ὅτι ἐξέβαλεν αὐτοὺς Ἱεροβοὰμ καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ αὐτοῦ μὴ λειτουργεῖν Κυρίῳ,
14 Porque los Levitas dejaban sus ejidos y sus posesiones, y se venían á Judá y á Jerusalem: pues Jeroboam y sus hijos los echaban del ministerio de Jehová.
14 For the Levites left their pasture lands and their possessions, and came to Judah and Jerusalem; for Jeroboam and his sons cast them off, that they should not execute the priest’s office to Yahweh.
15 καὶ κατέστησεν ἑαυτῷ ἱερεῖς τῶν ὑψηλῶν καὶ τοῖς εἰδώλοις καὶ τοῖς ματαίοις καὶ τοῖς μόσχοις, ἃ ἐποίησεν Ἱεροβοάμ.
15 Y él se hizo sacerdotes para los altos, y para los demonios, y para los becerros que él había hecho.
15 He himself appointed priests for the high places, for the male goat and calf idols which he had made.
16 Καὶ ἐξέβαλεν αὐτοὺς ἀπὸ φυλῶν Ἰσραὴλ, οἳ ἔδωκαν καρδίαν αὐτῶν τοῦ ζητῆσαι Κύριον Θεὸν Ἰσραήλ· καὶ ἦλθον εἰς Ἱερουσαλὴμ θῦσαι Κυρίῳ Θεῷ τῶν πατέρων αὐτῶν.
16 Tras aquéllos acudieron también de todas las tribus de Israel los que habían puesto su corazón en buscar á Jehová Dios de Israel; y viniéronse á Jerusalem para sacrificar á Jehová, el Dios de sus padres.
16 After them, out of all the tribes of Israel, those who set their hearts to seek Yahweh, the God of Israel, came to Jerusalem to sacrifice to Yahweh, the God of their fathers.
17 Καὶ κατίσχυσαν τὴν βασιλείαν Ἰούδα· καὶ κατίσχυσε Ῥοβοὰμ τὸν τοῦ Σαλωμὼν εἰς ἔτη τρία, ὅτι ἐπορεύθη ἐν ταῖς ὁδοῖς Δαυὶδ καὶ Σαλωμὼν ἔτη τρία.
17 Así fortificaron el reino de Judá, y confirmaron á Roboam hijo de Salomón, por tres años; porque tres años anduvieron en el camino de David y de Salomón.
17 So they strengthened the kingdom of Judah and made Rehoboam the son of Solomon strong for three years, for they walked three years in the way of David and Solomon.
18 Καὶ ἔλαβεν ἑαυτῷ Ῥοβοὰμ γυναῖκα τὴν Μοολὰθ θυγατέρα Ἱεριμοὺθ υἱοῦ Δαυὶδ, καὶ Ἀβιγαίαν θυγατέρα Ἑλιὰβ τοῦ Ἰεσσαί.
18 Y tomóse Roboam por mujer á Mahalath, hija de Jerimoth hijo de David, y á Abihail, hija de Eliab hijo de Esaí.
18 Rehoboam took a wife for himself, Mahalath the daughter of Jerimoth the son of David and of Abihail the daughter of Eliab the son of Jesse.
19 Καὶ ἔτεκεν αὐτῷ υἱοὺς, τὸν Ἰεοὺς, καὶ τὸν Σαμαρία, καὶ τὸν Ζαάμ.
19 La cual le parió hijos: á Jeus, y á Samaria, y á Zaham.
19 She bore him sons: Jeush, Shemariah, and Zaham.
20 Καὶ μετὰ ταῦτα ἔλαβεν ἑαυτῷ τὴν Μααχὰ θυγατέρα Ἀβεσσαλὼμ, καὶ ἔτεκεν αὐτῷ τὸν Ἀβιὰ, καὶ τὸν Ἰετθὶ, καὶ τὸν Ζηζὰ, καὶ τὸν Σαλημώθ.
20 Después de ella tomó á Maachâ hija de Absalom, la cual le parió á Abías, á Athai, Ziza, y Selomith.
20 After her, he took Maacah the granddaughter of Absalom; and she bore him Abijah, Attai, Ziza, and Shelomith.
21 Καὶ ἠγάπησε Ῥοβοὰμ τὴν Μααχά θυγατέρα Ἀβεσσαλὼμ ὑπὲρ πάσας τὰς γυναῖκας αὐτοῦ καὶ τὰς παλλακὰς αὐτοῦ, ὅτι γυναῖκας δεκαοκτὼ εἶχε καὶ παλλακὰς ἑξήκοντα· καὶ ἐγέννησεν υἱοὺς εἴκοσι καὶ ὀκτὼ, καὶ θυγατέρας ἑξήκοντα.
21 Mas Roboam amó á Maachâ hija de Absalom sobre todas sus mujeres y concubinas; porque tomó diez y ocho mujeres y sesenta concubinas, y engendró veintiocho hijos y sesenta hijas.
21 Rehoboam loved Maacah the granddaughter of Absalom above all his wives and his concubines; for he took eighteen wives and sixty concubines, and became the father of twenty-eight sons and sixty daughters.
22 Καὶ κατέστησεν εἰς ἄρχοντα Ἀβιὰ τὸν τῆς Μααχὰ εἰς ἡγούμενον ἐν τοῖς ἀδελφοῖς αὐτοῦ, ὅτι βασιλεῦσαι διενοεῖτο αὐτόν.
22 Y puso Roboam á Abías hijo de Maachâ por cabeza y príncipe de sus hermanos, porque [quería] hacerle rey.
22 Rehoboam appointed Abijah the son of Maacah to be chief, the prince among his brothers, for he intended to make him king.
23 Καὶ ηὐξήθη παρὰ πάντας τοὺς υἱοὺς αὐτοῦ ἐν πᾶσι τοῖς ὁρίοις Ἰούδα καὶ Βενιαμὶν, καὶ ἐν ταῖς πόλεσι ταῖς ὀχυραῖς, καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐταῖς τροφὰς πλῆθος πολὺ, καὶ ᾐτήσατο πλῆθος γυναικῶν.
23 E hízole instruir, y esparció todos sus hijos por todas las tierras de Judá y de Benjamín, y por todas las ciudades fuertes, y dióles vituallas en abundancia, y pidió muchas mujeres.
23 He dealt wisely, and dispersed some of his sons throughout all the lands of Judah and Benjamin, to every fortified city. He gave them food in abundance; and he sought many wives for them.
