1 Cuando el reino de Roboam se había afianzado y fortalecido, él abandonó la Ley de Yavé y todo el pueblo con él.
1 When the kingdom of Rehoboam was established and he was strong, he abandoned Yahweh’s law, and all Israel with him.
2 Sucedió que en el año quinto del rey Roboam, por cuanto se rebeló contra Yavé, Sisac, rey de Egipto, subió contra Jerusalén
2 In the fifth year of King Rehoboam, Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, because they had trespassed against Yahweh,
3 con 1.200 carruajes de guerra y 60.000 jinetes. El ejército de libios, suquienos y etíopes que iban con él desde Egipto era innumerable.
3 with twelve hundred chariots and sixty thousand horsemen. The people were without number who came with him out of Egypt: the Lubim, the Sukkiim, and the Ethiopians.
4 Tomó las ciudades fortificadas de Judá y llegó hasta Jerusalén.
4 He took the fortified cities which belonged to Judah, and came to Jerusalem.
5 Entonces el profeta Semaías fue a Roboam y a los jefes de Judá, que se reunieron en Jerusalén a causa de Sisac, y les dijo: Yavé dice: Ustedes me abandonaron. Yo también los abandono en manos de Sisac.
5 Now Shemaiah the prophet came to Rehoboam and to the princes of Judah, who were gathered together to Jerusalem because of Shishak, and said to them, “Yahweh says, ‘You have forsaken me, therefore I have also left you in the hand of Shishak.’”
6 Pero los jefes de Israel y el rey se humillaron y dijeron: Justo es Yavé.
6 Then the princes of Israel and the king humbled themselves; and they said, “Yahweh is righteous.”
7 Cuando Yavé vio que se humillaron, la Palabra de Yavé vino a Semaías: Se humillaron, Por tanto, no los destruiré, sino les daré algún escape. Mi ira no se derramará contra Jerusalén por medio de Sisac.
7 When Yahweh saw that they humbled themselves, Yahweh’s word came to Shemaiah, saying, “They have humbled themselves. I will not destroy them, but I will grant them some deliverance, and my wrath won’t be poured out on Jerusalem by the hand of Shishak.
8 Pero serán sus esclavos, para que conozcan la diferencia entre servirme a Mí y servir a los reinos de las naciones.
8 Nevertheless they will be his servants, that they may know my service, and the service of the kingdoms of the countries.”
9 Sisac, rey de Egipto, subió contra Jerusalén y tomó los tesoros de la Casa de Yavé y la casa real. Se llevó todo y tomó los escudos de oro que hizo Salomón.
9 So Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem and took away the treasures of Yahweh’s house and the treasures of the king’s house. He took it all away. He also took away the shields of gold which Solomon had made.
10 El rey Roboam los reemplazó por escudos de bronce y los entregó a los jefes de la guardia que custodiaba la entrada al palacio real.
10 King Rehoboam made shields of bronze in their place, and committed them to the hands of the captains of the guard, who kept the door of the king’s house.
11 Cuando el rey iba a la Casa de Yavé, los guardias de la escolta iban y los llevaban, pero después los devolvían a la cámara de la guardia.
11 As often as the king entered into Yahweh’s house, the guard came and bore them, then brought them back into the guard room.
12 Cuando Roboam se humilló, la ira de Yavé se apartó de él, de manera que no lo destruyó por completo. También en Judá las cosas iban bien.
12 When he humbled himself, Yahweh’s wrath turned from him, so as not to destroy him altogether. Moreover, there were good things found in Judah.
13 El rey Roboam tenía 41 años cuando comenzó a reinar. Se fortaleció en Jerusalén, la ciudad que Yavé escogió de entre todas las tribus de Israel para poner allí su Nombre. Reinó 17 años. El nombre de su madre fue Naama amonita.
13 So King Rehoboam strengthened himself in Jerusalem and reigned; for Rehoboam was forty-one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city which Yahweh had chosen out of all the tribes of Israel to put his name there. His mother’s name was Naamah the Ammonitess.
14 Hizo lo malo, porque no dispuso su corazón para buscar a Yavé.
14 He did that which was evil, because he didn’t set his heart to seek Yahweh.
15 Los hechos de Roboam, primeros y últimos, ¿no están escritos en los rollos del profeta Semaías y del vidente Iddo, según el registro genealógico? Todo el tiempo hubo guerra entre Roboam y Jeroboam.
15 Now the acts of Rehoboam, first and last, aren’t they written in the histories of Shemaiah the prophet and of Iddo the seer, in the genealogies? There were wars between Rehoboam and Jeroboam continually.
16 Roboam descansó con sus antepasados y fue sepultado en la Ciudad de David. Su hijo Abías reinó en su lugar.
16 Rehoboam slept with his fathers, and was buried in David’s city; and Abijah his son reigned in his place.
