1 At that ith (time) Abayah (Abijah) the ban (son) of Yarabaim (Jeroboam) chalah (afflict) sick.
2 Yarabaim (Jeroboam) amar (said) to his ayashah (woman / wife), “Please qawam (rise up) up and shanah (disguise) yourself, that you won't be recognized as the ayashah (woman / wife) of Yarabaim (Jeroboam). Halak (move) to Shayalah (Shiloh). Behold, there is Achayah (Ahijah) the nabayaa (prophet/prophecy), who dabar (word / matter) concerning me that I should be malak (king) over this im (nation / people).
3 Laqach (take / seize) with you ishar (ten) loaves, and cakes, and a jar of dabash (honey), and bawaa (bring) to him. He will nagad (tell) you what will become of the nair (child).”
4 Yarabaim (Jeroboam's) ayashah (woman / wife) ishah (make) so, and qawam (rise up), and yalak (went) to Shayalah (Shiloh), and bawaa (bring) to the bayath (house) of Achayah (Ahijah). Now Achayah (Ahijah) yakal (could) not raah (see / saw); for his iyan (eye) were qawam (rise up) by reason of his shayab (age).
5 Yahawah () amar (spoke) to Achayah (Ahijah), “Behold, the ayashah (woman / wife) of Yarabaim (Jeroboam) bawaa (come) to darash (inquire) of you dabar (word / matter) her ban (son); for he is chalah (afflict). Zah (this / that / these) and thus you shall dabar (word / matter) her; for it will be, when she bawaa (come) in, that she will pretend to be nakar (another) woman.”
6 It was so, when Achayah (Ahijah) shamai (hearken / hear) the qawal (sound / voice) of her ragal (feet / foot), as she bawaa (bring) in at the pathach (door), that he amar (said), “bawaa (bring) in, you ayashah (woman / wife) of Yarabaim (Jeroboam)! Why do you pretend to be nakar (another)? For I am shalach (send) to you with qashah (rough / hard) news.
7 Yalak (go), amar (spoke) Yarabaim (Jeroboam), Thus amar (spoke) Yahawah (), ‘the Alahayam () of Yashar-Al (Israel): “yain (because) I rawam (will lift up) you from thawak (midst) the im (nation / people), and nathan (give) you nagayad (prince) over my im (nation / people) Yashar-Al (Israel),
8 And qarai (tore) the mamalakah (kingdom) away from the bayath (house) of Dawad (David), and nathan (give) it you; and yet you have not been as my ibad (servant) Dawad (David), who shamar (keep/guard) my matzawah (commandments), and who halak (move) me with all his labab (heart), to ishah (make) that only which was yashar (upright) in my iyan (eye),
9 But ishah (make) done raii (wicked / dysfunctional / evil) above all who were panayam (face) you, and have yalak (gone) and ishah (make) you other Alahayam (), and masakah (molten) images, to provoke me to kais (anger), and have shalak (cast) me achar (other) your gaw (back):
10 Therefore, behold, I will bawaa (bring) rai (evil) on the bayath (house) of Yarabaim (Jeroboam), and will karath (cut) off from Yarabaim (Jeroboam) everyone who urinates on a qayar (wall), he who is itzar (shut) up and he who is izab (left) at large in Yashar-Al (Israel), and will utterly sweep bair (away) the bayath (house) of Yarabaim (Jeroboam), as a man sweeps bair (away) galal (dung), until it is thamam (all) gone.
11 He who mawath (death) of Yarabaim (Jeroboam) in the iyar (city) shall the kalabayam (dogs) akal (eat); and he who mawath (death) in the shadah (field) shall the iwap (flying) of the sky akal (eat): for Yahawah () has dabar (word / matter) it.”’
12 Qawam (rise up) therefore, and yalak (go) to your bayath (house). When your ragal (feet / foot) bawaa (bring) into the iyar (city), the yalad (birth / begot) shall mawath (death).
13 All Yashar-Al (Israel) shall sapad (mourn) for him, and qabar (bury) him; for he only of Yarabaim (Jeroboam) shall bawaa (come) to the qabar (grave / tomb / sepulcher), because in him there is matzaa (found) some tawab (good / proper function) thing toward Yahawah (), the Alahayam () of Yashar-Al (Israel), in the bayath (house) of Yarabaim (Jeroboam).
14 Moreover Yahawah () will qawam (rise up) him up a malak (king) over Yashar-Al (Israel), who shall karath (cut) off the bayath (house) of Yarabaim (Jeroboam). This is yawam (day)! What? Even now.
15 For Yahawah () will nakah (strike) Yashar-Al (Israel), as a qanah (reed) is nawad (shaken) in the mayam (Waters); and he will nathash (root) up Yashar-Al (Israel) out of this tawab (good / proper function) adamah (land) which he nathan (give) to their ab (father), and will zarah (scatter) them ibar (beyond) the nahar (river), because they ishah (make) made their Asharah (Asherim), provoking Yahawah () to kais (anger).
16 He will nathan (give) Yashar-Al (Israel) up galal (because) of the chataawath (sins) of Yarabaim (Jeroboam), which he has chataa (sinned), and with which he has made Yashar-Al (Israel) to chataa (sin).”
17 Yarabaim (Jeroboam's) ayashah (woman / wife) qawam (rise up), and departed, and bawaa (bring) to Tharatzah (Tirzah). As she bawaa (bring) to the sap (threshold) of the bayath (house), the nair (child) mawath (death).
18 All Yashar-Al (Israel) qabar (bury) him, and sapad (mourned) for him, according to the dabar (word / matter) of Yahawah (), which he dabar (word / matter) by his ibad (servant) Achayah (Ahijah) the nabayaa (prophet/prophecy).
19 The yathar (rest) of the dabaray (acts) of Yarabaim (Jeroboam), how he lacham (warred), and how he malak (king), behold, they are kathab (write) in the sapar (book / scribed document) of the dabaray (chronicles) of the malakay (kings) of Yashar-Al (Israel).
20 The yamayam (days) which Yarabaim (Jeroboam) malak (king) were shanayam (two) and isharayam (twenty) shanah (years): and he shakab (slept) with his ab (father), and Nadab (Nadab) his ban (son) malak (king) in his place.
21 Rachabaim (Rehoboam) the ban (son) of Shalamah (Solomon) malak (king) in Yahawadah (Judah). Rachabaim (Rehoboam) was arabaiyam (forty) - achad (one) shanah (years) ban (son) when he began to malak (king), and he malak (king) seventeen shanah (years) in Yarawashalam (Jerusalem), the iyar (city) which Yahawah () had bachar (chosen) out of all the shabatay (tribes) of Yashar-Al (Israel), to shawam (place / establish / appoint) his sham (name) there: and his am (mother) sham (name) was Naimah (Naamah) the imawanayath (ammonitess).
22 Yahawadah (Judah) ishah (make) that which was rai (evil) in the iyan (eye) of Yahawah (), and they qanaa (jealous) him to jealousy with their chataah (sin) which they chataa (committed), above all that their ab (father) ishah (make) done.
23 For they also banah (build) them bamah (high) places, and matzabawath (pillars), and Asharah (Asherim), on every gabah (high) gabaih (hill), and under every rainan (green) itz (tree);
24 And there were also qadash (set apart / make holy) in the aratz (Earth/land): they ishah (make) according to all the thawaibath (abominations) of the gawayam (nations) which Yahawah () yarash (drove) out panayam (face) the banay (children) of Yashar-Al (Israel).
25 It happened in the chamayashay (fifth) shanah (year) of malak (king) Rachabaim (Rehoboam), that Shayashaq (Shishak) malak (king) of Matzarayam (Matzarayam / Egypt) ilah (go up / offer) up against Yarawashalam (Yarawashalam / Jerusalem);
26 And he laqach (take / seize) away the atzarawath (treasures) of the bayath (house) of Yahawah (), and the atzarawath (treasures) of the malak (king) bayath (house); he even laqach (take / seize) away all: and he laqach (take / seize) away all the maganay (shields) of zahab (gold) which Shalamah (Solomon) ishah (make) made.
27 Malak (king) Rachabaim (Rehoboam) ishah (make) in their place maganay (shields) of nachashath (brass), and paqad (visit) them to the yad (hand) of the sharay (captains) of the rawatz (guard), who shamar (keep/guard) the pathach (door) of the malak (king) bayath (house).
28 It was so, that as often as the malak (king) bawaa (come) into the bayath (house) of Yahawah (), the rawatz (guard) nashaa (lift) them, and shawab (turn back / repent) them back into the rawatz (guard) room.
29 Now the yathar (rest) of the dabaray (acts) of Rachabaim (Rehoboam), and all that he ishah (make), aren't they kathab (write) in the sapar (book / scribed document) of the dabaray (chronicles) of the malakay (kings) of Yahawadah (Yahawadah / Judah)?
30 There was malachamah (war) between Rachabaim (Rehoboam) and Yarabaim (Jeroboam) yawam (day).
31 Rachabaim (Rehoboam) shakab (slept) with his ab (father), and was qabar (grave / tomb / sepulcher) with his ab (father) in the iyar (city) of Dawad (David): and his am (mother) sham (name) was Naimah (Naamah) the imawanayath (ammonitess). Abayam (Abijam) his ban (son) malak (king) in his place.
