Rehoboam’s Reign of Foolishness
1Kemudian Rehabeam pergi ke Sikhem, sebab seluruh Israel telah datang ke Sikhem untuk menobatkan dia menjadi raja. 2Segera sesudah hal itu kedengaran kepada Yerobeam bin Nebat -- ia ada di Mesir, sebab ia melarikan diri ke sana dari hadapan raja Salomo -- maka kembalilah ia dari Mesir. 3Orang menyuruh memanggil dia, lalu datanglah Yerobeam dengan seluruh orang Israel dan berkata kepada Rehabeam: 4"Ayahmu telah memberatkan tanggungan kami, maka sekarang ringankanlah pekerjaan yang sukar yang dibebankan ayahmu dan tanggungan yang berat yang dipikulkannya kepada kami, supaya kami menjadi hambamu." 5Tetapi ia menjawab mereka: "Datanglah kembali kepadaku lusa." Lalu pergilah rakyat itu.
1Then Rehoboam went to Shechem, because all Israel had come to Shechem to make him king. 2When Jeroboam the son of Nebat heard about it (he was in Egypt where he had fled from the presence of King Solomon), Jeroboam returned from Egypt. 3So they sent word and summoned him. When Jeroboam and all Israel came, they spoke to Rehoboam, saying, 4“Your father made our yoke hard; but now, lighten the hard labor imposed by your father and his heavy yoke which he put on us, and we will serve you.” 5He said to them, “Return to me again in three days.” So the people departed.
6Sesudah itu Rehabeam meminta nasihat dari para tua-tua yang selama hidup Salomo mendampingi Salomo, ayahnya, katanya: "Apakah nasihatmu untuk menjawab rakyat itu ?" 7Mereka berkata kepadanya: "Jika engkau mau berlaku ramah terhadap rakyat itu, mau menyenangkan mereka dan mengatakan kata-kata yang baik kepada mereka, maka mereka menjadi hamba-hambamu sepanjang waktu." 8Tetapi ia mengabaikan nasihat yang diberikan para tua-tua itu, lalu ia meminta nasihat kepada orang-orang muda yang sebaya dengan dia dan yang mendampinginya, 9katanya kepada mereka: "Apakah nasihatmu, supaya kita dapat menjawab rakyat yang mengatakan kepadaku: Ringankanlah tanggungan yang dipikulkan kepada kami oleh ayahmu ?" 10Lalu orang-orang muda yang sebaya dengan dia itu berkata: "Beginilah harus kaukatakan kepada rakyat yang telah berkata kepadamu: Ayahmu telah memberatkan tanggungan kami, tetapi engkau ini, berilah keringanan kepada kami -- beginilah harus kaukatakan kepada mereka: Kelingkingku lebih besar dari pada pinggang ayahku ! 11Maka sekarang, ayahku telah membebankan kepada kamu tanggungan yang berat, tetapi aku akan menambah tanggungan kamu; ayahku telah menghajar kamu dengan cambuk, tetapi aku akan menghajar kamu dengan cambuk yang berduri besi."
6And then King Rehoboam consulted with the elders who had served his father Solomon while he was still alive, saying, “How do you advise me to answer this people?” 7They spoke to him, saying, “If you are kind to this people and please them and speak pleasant words to them, then they will be your servants always.” 8But he ignored the advice of the elders which they had given him, and consulted with the young men who had grown up with him and served him. 9He said to them, “What advice do you give, so that we may answer this people, who have spoken to me, saying, ‘Lighten the yoke which your father put on us’?” 10The young men who had grown up with him spoke to him, saying, “This is what you should say to the people who spoke to you, saying: ‘Your father made our yoke heavy, but you make it lighter for us!’ You should speak this way to them: ‘My little finger is thicker than my father’s waist! 11‘Now then, my father loaded you with a heavy yoke; yet I will add to your yoke. My father disciplined you with whips, but I will discipline you with scorpions!’”
12Lusanya datanglah Yerobeam dengan segenap rakyat kepada Rehabeam, seperti yang dikatakan raja: "Kembalilah kepadaku lusa." 13Raja Rehabeam menjawab mereka dengan keras; ia telah mengabaikan nasihat para tua-tua; 14ia mengatakan kepada mereka menurut nasihat orang-orang muda: "Ayahku telah memberatkan tanggungan kamu, tetapi aku akan menambahnya; ayahku telah menghajar kamu dengan cambuk, tetapi aku akan menghajar kamu dengan cambuk yang berduri besi." 15Jadi raja tidak mendengarkan permintaan rakyat, sebab hal itu merupakan perubahan yang disebabkan Allah, supaya TUHAN menepati firman yang diucapkan-Nya dengan perantaraan Ahia, orang Silo, kepada Yerobeam bin Nebat.
12So Jeroboam and all the people came to Rehoboam on the third day, just as the king had directed, saying, “Return to me on the third day.” 13The king answered them harshly, and King Rehoboam ignored the advice of the elders. 14He spoke to them according to the advice of the young men, saying, “My father made your yoke heavy, but I will add to it; my father disciplined you with whips, but I will discipline you with scorpions.” 15So the king did not listen to the people, because it was a turn of events from God so that the LORD might establish His word, which He spoke through Ahijah the Shilonite to Jeroboam the son of Nebat.
16Setelah seluruh Israel melihat, bahwa raja tidak mendengarkan permintaan mereka, maka rakyat menjawab raja: "Bagian apakah kita dapat dari pada Daud ? Kita tidak memperoleh warisan dari anak Isai itu! Masing-masing ke kemahmu, hai orang Israel ! Uruslah sekarang rumahmu sendiri, hai Daud !" Maka pergilah seluruh orang Israel ke kemahnya, 17sehingga Rehabeam menjadi raja hanya atas orang Israel yang diam di kota-kota Yehuda. 18Kemudian raja Rehabeam mengutus Hadoram yang menjadi kepala rodi, tetapi orang-orang Israel melontari dia dengan batu, sehingga mati, bahkan raja Rehabeam hampir-hampir tidak dapat menaiki keretanya untuk melarikan diri ke Yerusalem. 19Demikianlah mulanya orang Israel memberontak terhadap keluarga Daud sampai hari ini.
16When all Israel saw that the king had not listened to them, the people replied to the king, saying,
“What share do we have in David?
We have no inheritance in the son of Jesse.
Everyone to your tents, Israel!
Now look after your own house, David!”
So all Israel went away to their tents. 17But as for the sons of Israel who lived in the cities of Judah, Rehoboam reigned over them. 18Then King Rehoboam sent Hadoram, who was in charge of the forced labor, and the sons of Israel stoned him to death. And King Rehoboam hurried to mount his chariot to flee to Jerusalem. 19So Israel has been in rebellion against the house of David to this day.
