2 Crónicas 12

1E quando Roboão havia confirmado o reino, deixou a lei do SENHOR, e com ele todo Israel. 2E no quinto ano do rei Roboão subiu Sisaque rei do Egito contra Jerusalém, (porquanto se haviam rebelado contra o SENHOR,) 3Com mil e duzentos carros, e com sessenta mil cavaleiros: mas o povo que vinha com ele do Egito, não tinha número; a saber, de líbios, suquitas, e etíopes. 4E tomou as cidades fortes de Judá, e chegou até Jerusalém. 5Então veio Semaías profeta a Roboão e aos príncipes de Judá, que estavam reunidos em Jerusalém por causa de Sisaque, e disse-lhes: Assim disse o SENHOR: Vós me deixastes, e eu também vos deixei em mãos de Sisaque. 6E os príncipes de Israel e o rei se humilharam, e disseram: Justo é o SENHOR. 7E quando viu o SENHOR que se haviam humilhado, foi palavra do SENHOR a Semaías, dizendo: Humilharam-se; não os destruirei; antes os salvarei em breve, e não se derramará minha ira contra Jerusalém por mão de Sisaque. 8Porém serão seus servos; para que saibam que é servir a mim, e servir aos reinos das nações. 9Subiu, pois, Sisaque, rei do Egito a Jerusalém, e tomou os tesouros da casa do SENHOR, e os tesouros da casa do rei; tudo o levou: e tomou os paveses de ouro que Salomão havia feito. 10E em lugar deles fez o rei Roboão paveses de bronze, e entregou-os em mãos dos chefes da guarda, os quais guardavam a entrada da casa do rei. 11E quando o rei ia à casa do SENHOR, vinham os da guarda, e traziam-nos, e depois os voltavam à câmara da guarda. 12E quando ele se humilhou, a ira do SENHOR se separou dele, para não destruí-lo de todo: e também em Judá as coisas foram bem. 13Fortificou-se, pois Roboão, e reinou em Jerusalém: e era Roboão de quarenta e um anos quando começou a reinar, e dezessete anos reinou em Jerusalém, cidade que escolheu o SENHOR de todas as tribos de Israel, para pôr nela seu nome. E o nome de sua mãe foi Naamá, amonita. 14E fez o mal, porque não dispôs seu coração para buscar ao SENHOR. 15E as coisas de Roboão, primeiras e últimas, não estão escritas nos livros de Semaías profeta e de Ido vidente, no registro das linhagens? E entre Roboão e Jeroboão havia perpétua guerra. 16E descansou Roboão com seus pais, e foi sepultado na cidade de Davi: e reinou em seu lugar Abias seu filho.

1When the kingdom of Rehoboam was established, and he was strong, he abandoned Yahweh’s law, and all Israel with him. 2In the fifth year of king Rehoboam, Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, because they had trespassed against Yahweh, 3with 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. 4He took the fortified cities which pertained to Judah, and came to Jerusalem. 5Now 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, “Thus says Yahweh, ‘You have forsaken me, therefore have I also left you in the hand of Shishak.’” 6Then the princes of Israel and the king humbled themselves; and they said, “Yahweh is righteous.” 7When 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 shall not be poured out on Jerusalem by the hand of Shishak. 8Nevertheless they shall be his servants, that they may know my service, and the service of the kingdoms of the countries.” 9So 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. 10King Rehoboam made in their place shields of brass, and committed them to the hands of the captains of the guard, who kept the door of the king’s house. 11It was so, that as often as the king entered into Yahweh’s house, the guard came and bore them, and brought them back into the guard room. 12When he humbled himself, the wrath of Yahweh turned from him, so as not to destroy him altogether: and moreover in Judah there were good things found. 13So 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: and his mother’s name was Naamah the Ammonitess. 14He did that which was evil, because he didn’t set his heart to seek Yahweh. 15Now the acts of Rehoboam, first and last, aren’t they written in the histories of Shemaiah the prophet and of Iddo the seer, after the way of genealogies? There were wars between Rehoboam and Jeroboam continually. 16Rehoboam slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David: and Abijah his son reigned in his place.

1Het geschiedde nu, als Rehabeam het koninkrijk bevestigd had, en hij sterk geworden was, dat hij de wet des HEEREN verliet, en gans Israel met hem. 2Daarom geschiedde het, in het vijfde jaar van den koning Rehabeam, dat Sisak, de koning van Egypte, tegen Jeruzalem optoog (want zij hadden overtreden tegen den HEERE), 3Met duizend en tweehonderd wagenen, en met zestig duizend ruiteren; en des volks was geen getal, dat met hem kwam uit Egypte, Libiers, Suchieten en Moren; 4En hij nam de vaste steden in, die Juda had, en hij kwam tot Jeruzalem toe. 5Toen kwam Semaja, de profeet, tot Rehabeam en de oversten van Juda, die te Jeruzalem verzameld waren, uit oorzaak van Sisak, en hij zeide tot hen: Alzo zegt de HEERE: Gij hebt Mij verlaten, daarom heb Ik u ook verlaten in de hand van Sisak. 6Toen verootmoedigden zich de oversten van Israel en de koning, en zij zeiden: De HEERE is rechtvaardig. 7Als nu de HEERE zag, dat zij zich verootmoedigden, geschiedde het woord des HEEREN tot Semaja, zeggende: Zij hebben zich verootmoedigd, Ik zal hen niet verderven; maar Ik zal hun in kort ontkoming geven, dat Mijn grimmigheid over Jeruzalem door de hand van Sisak niet zal uitgegoten worden. 8Doch zij zullen hem tot knechten zijn, opdat zij onderkennen Mijn dienst, en den dienst van de koninkrijken der landen. 9Zo toog Sisak, de koning van Egypte, op tegen Jeruzalem; en hij nam de schatten van het huis des HEEREN en de schatten van het huis des konings weg; hij nam alles weg; hij nam ook al de gouden schilden weg, die Salomo gemaakt had. 10En de koning Rehabeam maakte, in plaats van die, koperen schilden; en hij beval die onder de hand van de oversten der trawanten, die de deur van het huis des konings bewaarden. 11En het geschiedde, zo wanneer de koning in het huis des HEEREN ging, dat de trawanten kwamen, en die droegen, en die wederbrachten in der trawanten wachtkamer. 12En als hij zich verootmoedigde, keerde de toorn des HEEREN van hem af, opdat Hij hem niet ten uiterste toe verdierf; ook waren in Juda nog goede dingen. 13Zo versterkte zich de koning Rehabeam in Jeruzalem, en regeerde; want Rehabeam was een en veertig jaren oud, als hij koning werd, en hij regeerde zeventien jaren in Jeruzalem, de stad, die de HEERE uit alle stammen van Israel verkoren had, om Zijn Naam daar te zetten; en de naam zijner moeder was Naama, een Ammonietische. 14En hij deed dat kwaad was, dewijl hij zijn hart niet richtte, om den HEERE te zoeken. 15De geschiedenissen nu van Rehabeam, de eerste en de laatste, zijn die niet geschreven in de woorden van Semaja, den profeet, en Iddo, den ziener, verhalende de geslachtsregisteren; daartoe de krijgen van Rehabeam en Jerobeam in al hun dagen? 16En Rehabeam ontsliep met zijn vaderen, en werd begraven in de stad Davids; en zijn zoon Abia werd koning in zijn plaats.
