11:1
|
罗波安来到耶路撒冷，招聚犹大家和便雅悯家，共十八万人，都是挑选的战士，要与以色列人争战，好将国夺回再归自己。
|
|
|
And when Rehoboam was come to Jerusalem, he assembled the house of Judah and Benjamin, a hundred and fourscore thousand chosen men, that were warriors, to fight against Israel, to bring the kingdom again to Rehoboam.
|
|
11:2
|
但耶和华的话临到神人示玛雅说：
|
|
|
But the word of Jehovah came to Shemaiah the man of God, saying,
|
|
11:3
|
「你去告诉所罗门的儿子犹大王罗波安和住犹大、便雅悯的以色列众人说，
|
|
|
Speak unto Rehoboam the son of Solomon, king of Judah, and to all Israel in Judah and Benjamin, saying,
|
|
11:4
|
耶和华如此说：『你们不可上去与你们的弟兄争战，各归各家去吧！因为这事出于我。』」众人就听从耶和华的话归回，不去与耶罗波安争战。
|
|
|
Thus saith Jehovah, Ye shall not go up, nor fight against your brethren: return every man to his house; for this thing is of me. So they hearkened unto the words of Jehovah, and returned from going against Jeroboam.
|
|
11:5
|
罗波安住在耶路撒冷，在犹大地修筑城邑，
|
|
|
And Rehoboam dwelt in Jerusalem, and built cities for defence in Judah.
|
|
11:6
|
为保障修筑伯利恒、以坦、提哥亚、
|
|
|
He built Beth-lehem, and Etam, and Tekoa,
|
|
11:7
|
伯夙、梭哥、亚杜兰、
|
|
|
And Beth-zur, and Soco, and Adullam,
|
|
11:8
|
迦特、玛利沙、西弗、
|
|
|
and Gath, and Mareshah, and Ziph,
|
|
11:9
|
亚多莱音、拉吉、亚西加、
|
|
|
and Adoraim, and Lachish, and Azekah,
|
|
11:10
|
琐拉、亚雅仑、希伯仑。这都是犹大和便雅悯的坚固城。
|
|
|
and Zorah, and Aijalon, and Hebron, which are in Judah and in Benjamin, fortified cities.
|
|
11:11
|
罗波安又坚固各处的保障，在其中安置军长，又预备下粮食、油、酒。
|
|
|
And he fortified the strongholds, and put captains in them, and stores of victuals, and oil and wine.
|
|
11:12
|
他在各城里预备盾牌和枪，且使城极其坚固。犹大和便雅悯都归了他。
|
|
|
And in every city [he put] shields and spears, and made them exceeding strong. And Judah and Benjamin belonged to him.
|
|
11:13
|
以色列全地的祭司和利未人都从四方来归罗波安。
|
|
|
And the priests and the Levites that were in all Israel resorted to him out of all their border.
|
|
11:14
|
利未人撇下他们的郊野和产业，来到犹大与耶路撒冷，是因耶罗波安和他的儿子拒绝他们，不许他们供祭司职分事奉耶和华。
|
|
|
For the Levites left their suburbs and their possession, and came to Judah and Jerusalem: for Jeroboam and his sons cast them off, that they should not execute the priest`s office unto Jehovah;
|
|
11:15
|
耶罗波安为邱坛、为鬼魔（原文作公山羊）、为自己所铸造的牛犊设立祭司。
|
|
|
and he appointed him priests for the high places, and for the he-goats, and for the calves which he had made.
|
|
11:16
|
以色列各支派中，凡立定心意寻求耶和华以色列神的，都随从利未人，来到耶路撒冷祭祀耶和华他们列祖的神。
|
|
|
And after them, out of all the tribes of Israel, such as set their hearts to seek Jehovah, the God of Israel, came to Jerusalem to sacrifice unto Jehovah, the God of their fathers.
|
|
11:17
|
这样，就坚固犹大国，使所罗门的儿子罗波安强盛三年，因为他们三年遵行大卫和所罗门的道。
|
|
|
So they strengthened the kingdom of Judah, and made Rehoboam the son of Solomon strong, three years; for they walked three years in the way of David and Solomon.
|
|
11:18
|
罗波安娶大卫儿子耶利摩的女儿玛哈拉为妻，又娶耶西儿子以利押的女儿亚比孩为妻。
|
|
|
And Rehoboam took him a wife, Mahalath the daughter of Jerimoth the son of David, [and of] Abihail the daughter of Eliab the son of Jesse;
|
|
11:19
|
从他生了几个儿子，就是耶乌施、示玛利雅、撒罕。
|
|
|
and she bare him sons: Jeush, and Shemariah, and Zaham.
|
|
11:20
|
后来又娶押沙龙的女儿玛迦（十三章二节是乌列的女儿米该雅），从他生了亚比雅、亚太、细撒、示罗密。
|
|
|
And after her he took Maacah the daughter of Absalom; and she bare him Abijah, and Attai, and Ziza, and Shelomith.
|
|
11:21
|
罗波安娶十八个妻，立六十个妾，生二十八个儿子，六十个女儿；他却爱押沙龙的女儿玛迦，比爱别的妻妾更甚。
|
|
|
And Rehoboam loved Maacah the daughter of Absalom above all his wives and his concubines: (for he took eighteen wives, and threescore concubines, and begat twenty and eight sons and threescore daughters.)
|
|
11:22
|
罗波安立玛迦的儿子亚比雅作太子，在他弟兄中为首，因为想要立他接续作王。
|
|
|
And Rehoboam appointed Abijah the son of Maacah to be chief, [even] the prince among his brethren; for [he was minded] to make him king.
|
|
11:23
|
罗波安办事精明，使他众子分散在犹大和便雅悯全地各坚固城里，又赐他们许多粮食，为他们多寻妻子。
|
|
|
And he dealt wisely, and dispersed of all his sons throughout all the lands of Judah and Benjamin, unto every fortified city: and he gave them victuals in abundance. And he sought [for them] many wives.
