أخيا يتنبأ ضد يربعام

1 فِي ذَلِكَ الْوَقْتِ مَرِضَ أَبِيَّا بْنُ يَرُبْعَامَ، 2 فَقَالَ يَرُبْعَامُ لِزَوْجَتِهِ: «تَنَكَّرِي حَتَّى لَا يَكْتَشِفَ أَحَدٌ أَنَّكِ زَوْجَتِي، وَامْضِي إِلَى شِيلُوهَ حَيْثُ يُقِيمُ أَخِيَّا الَّذِي أَنْبَأَنِي أَنَّنِي سَأَمْلِكُ عَلَى هَذَا الشَّعْبِ، 3 وَخُذِي لَهُ مَعَكِ عَشْرَةَ أَرْغِفَةٍ وَكَعْكاً وَجَرَّةَ عَسَلٍ، وَانْطَلِقِي إِلَيْهِ وَهُوَ يُخْبِرُكِ بِمَصِيرِ الْغُلامِ». 4 فَنَفَّذَتْ زَوْجَةُ يَرُبْعَامَ مَا طَلَبَهُ مِنْهَا، وَوَصَلَتْ إِلَى بَيْتِ أَخِيَّا فِي شِيلُوهَ، وَكَانَ أَخِيَّا قَدْ طَعَنَ فِي السِّنِّ، وَكَلَّ بَصَرُهُ. 5 وَقَالَ الرَّبُّ لأَخِيَّا: «هَا هِيَ زَوْجَةُ يَرُبْعَامَ مُقْبِلَةٌ لِتَسْأَلَكَ عَنْ مَصِيرِ ابْنِهَا الْمَرِيضِ، فَأَجِبْهَا بِمَا أَقُولُهُ لَكَ، لأَنَّهَا سَتَدْخُلُ إِلَيْكَ مُتَنَكِّرَةً». 6 فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ أَخِيَّا وَقْعَ خَطْوَاتِهَا وَهِيَ دَاخِلَةٌ مِنَ الْبَابِ قَالَ: «ادْخُلِي يَا زَوْجَةَ يَرُبْعَامَ. لِمَاذَا تَتَنَكَّرِينَ؟ إِنَّنِي أَحْمِلُ إِلَيْكِ أَخْبَاراً سَيِّئَةً. 7 اذْهَبِي وَبَلِّغِي يَرُبْعَامَ قَضَاءَ الرَّبِّ إِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ: لَقَدْ رَفَعْتُكَ مِنْ وَسَطِ الشَّعْبِ، ونَصَّبْتُكَ رَئِيساً عَلَى شَعْبِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، 8 وَمَزَّقْتُ الْمَمْلَكَةَ عَنْ بَيْتِ دَاوُدَ وَوَلَّيْتُكَ عَلَيْهَا، وَلَكِنَّكَ لَمْ تَكُنْ كَعَبْدِي دَاوُدَ الَّذِي حَفِظَ وَصَايَايَ وَتَبِعَنِي مِنْ كُلِّ قَلْبِهِ لِيَصْنَعَ مَا هُوَ صَالِحٌ فِي عَيْنَيَّ. 9 لَقَدِ ارْتَكَبْتَ مِنَ السَّيِّئَاتِ مَا فَاقَ جَمِيعَ الَّذِينَ كَانُوا قَبْلَكَ، فَصَنَعْتَ لِنَفْسِكَ آلِهَةً أُخْرَى، أَصْنَاماً مَسْبُوكَةً، لِتُثِيرَ غَيْظِي، وَقَدْ طَرَحْتَنِي خَلْفَ ظَهْرِكَ. 10 لِذَلِكَ هَا أَنَا مُزْمِعٌ أَنْ أَبْتَلِيَ بَيْتَكَ بِشَرٍّ عَظِيمٍ، وَأُبِيدَ كُلَّ ذَكَرٍ مِنْ نَسْلِكَ، عَبْداً كَانَ أَمْ حُرّاً، وَأُفْنِيَ بَيْتَكَ كَمَا تُفْنِي النَّارُ الرَّوْثَ الْجَافَّ، 11 فَتَأْكُلُ الْكِلابُ كُلَّ مَنْ يَمُوتُ لَكَ فِي الْمَدِينَةِ، وَتَنْهَشُ طُيُورُ السَّمَاءِ كُلَّ مَنْ يَمُوتُ لَكَ فِي الْحَقْلِ، لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ تَكَلَّمَ». 12 وَأَضَافَ أَخِيَّا: «أَمَّا أَنْتِ فَانْهَضِي وَانْطَلِقِي إِلَى بَيْتِكِ، وَحَالَمَا تَدْخُلِينَ الْمَدِينَةَ يَمُوتُ الْوَلَدُ، 13 فَيَنُوحُ عَلَيْهِ الإِسْرَائِيلِيُّونَ وَيَدْفِنُونَهُ، لأَنَّ هَذَا وَحْدَهُ مِنْ نَسْلِ يَرُبْعَامَ يُوَارَى فِي قَبْرٍ، لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ إِلَهَ إِسْرَائِيلَ قَدْ وَجَدَ فِيهِ، مِنْ دُونِ سَائِرِ بَيْتِ يَرُبْعَامَ، شَيْئاً صَالِحاً. 14 وَيُقِيمُ الرَّبُّ لِنَفْسِهِ مَلِكاً عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ لِيُبِيدَ بَيْتَ يَرُبْعَامَ الْيَوْمَ. 15 ثُمَّ يَعْصِفُ الرَّبُّ بِإِسْرَائِيلَ، فَيَهُزُّهُمْ كَاهْتِزَازِ الْقَصَبِ فِي الْمَاءِ، وَيَسْتَأْصِلُهُمْ مِنْ هَذِهِ الأَرْضِ الْخَيِّرَةِ الَّتِي وَهَبَهَا لِآبَائِهِمْ، وَيُشَتِّتُهُمْ إِلَى مَا وَرَاءِ النَّهْرِ لأَنَّهُمْ أَقَامُوا لأَنْفُسِهِمْ أَصْنَاماً وَأَثَارُوا غَيْظَ الرَّبِّ. 16 وَيَنْبِذُ إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ جَرَّاءِ خَطَايَا يَرُبْعَامَ الَّتِي ارْتَكَبَهَا وَاسْتَغْوَى إِسْرَائِيلَ مَعَهُ فَأَخْطَأُوا». 17 فَعَادَتْ زَوْجَةُ يَرُبْعَامَ إِلَى تِرْصَةَ. وَمَا إِنْ وَصَلَتْ إِلَى عَتَبَةِ بَابِ الْبَيْتِ حَتَّى مَاتَ الْغُلامُ، 18 فَدَفَنَهُ الإِسْرَائِيلِيُّونَ وَنَاحُوا عَلَيْهِ، تَمَاماً حَسَبَ كَلامِ الرَّبِّ الَّذِي نَطَقَ بِهِ عَلَى لِسَانِ عَبْدِهِ أَخِيَّا النَّبِيِّ. 19 أَمَّا بَقِيَّةُ أَعْمَالِ يَرُبْعَامَ وَكَيْفَ حَارَبَ وَكَيْفَ مَلَكَ، فَهِيَ مُدَوَّنَةٌ فِي كِتَابِ أَخْبَارِ أَيَّامِ مُلُوكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. 20 وَدَامَ مُلْكُ يَرُبْعَامَ اثْنَتَيْنِ وَعِشْرِينَ سَنَةً، ثُمَّ مَاتَ وَدُفِنَ مَعَ آبَائِهِ، وَخَلَفَهُ عَلَى الْعَرْشِ ابْنُهُ نَادَابُ.

Prophecy Against Jeroboam

1 At that time Abijah the son of Jeroboam fell sick. 2 And Jeroboam said to his wife, “Arise, and disguise yourself, that it not be known that you are the wife of Jeroboam, and go to Shiloh. Behold, Ahijah the prophet is there, who said of me that I should be king over this people. (يش 18:1; 1مل 11:29) 3 Take with you ten loaves, some cakes, and a jar of honey, and go to him. He will tell you what shall happen to the child.” (1صم 9:7) 4 Jeroboam’s wife did so. She arose and went to Shiloh and came to the house of Ahijah. Now Ahijah could not see, for his eyes were dim because of his age. (1مل 11:29; 1مل 14:2) 5 And the Lord said to Ahijah, “Behold, the wife of Jeroboam is coming to inquire of you concerning her son, for he is sick. Thus and thus shall you say to her.” When she came, she pretended to be another woman. (1مل 14:4) 6 But when Ahijah heard the sound of her feet, as she came in at the door, he said, “Come in, wife of Jeroboam. Why do you pretend to be another? For I am charged with unbearable news for you. (1مل 14:4) 7 Go, tell Jeroboam, ‘Thus says the Lord, the God of Israel: “Because I exalted you from among the people and made you leader over my people Israel (2صم 12:7; 1مل 16:2) 8 and tore the kingdom away from the house of David and gave it to you, and yet you have not been like my servant David, who kept my commandments and followed me with all his heart, doing only that which was right in my eyes, (1مل 9:4; 1مل 11:31; 1مل 11:33; 1مل 11:38; 1مل 15:5)

1مل 9:41مل 11:311مل 11:331مل 11:381مل 15:5

9 but you have done evil above all who were before you and have gone and made for yourself other gods and metal images, provoking me to anger, and have cast me behind your back, (خر 34:17; 1مل 12:28; 2أخ 11:15; نح 9:26; مز 50:17; حز 23:35)

خر 34:171مل 12:282أخ 11:15نح 9:26مز 50:17حز 23:35

10 therefore behold, I will bring harm upon the house of Jeroboam and will cut off from Jeroboam every male, both bond and free in Israel, and will burn up the house of Jeroboam, as a man burns up dung until it is all gone. (تث 32:36; 1مل 16:3; 1مل 21:21; 2مل 9:8; 2مل 14:26)

تث 32:361مل 16:31مل 21:212مل 9:82مل 14:26

11 Anyone belonging to Jeroboam who dies in the city the dogs shall eat, and anyone who dies in the open country the birds of the heavens shall eat, for the Lord has spoken it.”’ (1مل 16:4; 1مل 21:24) 12 Arise therefore, go to your house. When your feet enter the city, the child shall die. (1مل 14:17) 13 And all Israel shall mourn for him and bury him, for he only of Jeroboam shall come to the grave, because in him there is found something pleasing to the Lord, the God of Israel, in the house of Jeroboam. (2أخ 12:12; 2أخ 19:3) 14 Moreover, the Lord will raise up for himself a king over Israel who shall cut off the house of Jeroboam today. And henceforth, (1مل 15:27) 15 the Lord will strike Israel as a reed is shaken in the water, and root up Israel out of this good land that he gave to their fathers and scatter them beyond the Euphrates,^[1] because they have made their Asherim, provoking the Lord to anger. (خر 34:13; تث 12:3; تث 29:28; يش 23:15; 2مل 15:29; مز 52:5; أم 2:22)

16 And he will give Israel up because of the sins of Jeroboam, which he sinned and made Israel to sin.” 17 Then Jeroboam’s wife arose and departed and came to Tirzah. And as she came to the threshold of the house, the child died. (1مل 14:12; 1مل 15:21; 1مل 15:33; 1مل 16:6; 1مل 16:8; 1مل 16:15; 1مل 16:23)

1مل 14:121مل 15:211مل 15:331مل 16:61مل 16:81مل 16:151مل 16:23

18 And all Israel buried him and mourned for him, according to the word of the Lord, which he spoke by his servant Ahijah the prophet. (1مل 14:13)

The Death of Jeroboam

19 Now the rest of the acts of Jeroboam, how he warred and how he reigned, behold, they are written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Israel. (2أخ 13:2) 20 And the time that Jeroboam reigned was twenty-two years. And he slept with his fathers, and Nadab his son reigned in his place.

Rehoboam Reigns in Judah

21 Now Rehoboam the son of Solomon reigned in Judah. Rehoboam was forty-one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city that the Lord had chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, to put his name there. His mother’s name was Naamah the Ammonite. (1مل 11:32; 1مل 11:36; 2أخ 12:13) 22 And Judah did what was evil in the sight of the Lord, and they provoked him to jealousy with their sins that they committed, more than all that their fathers had done. (عد 25:11; 2أخ 12:1; 2أخ 12:14) 23 For they also built for themselves high places and pillars and Asherim on every high hill and under every green tree, (خر 23:24; تث 12:2; 1مل 14:15; 2مل 16:4; إش 57:5; إر 2:20)

خر 23:24تث 12:21مل 14:152مل 16:4إش 57:5إر 2:20

24 and there were also male cult prostitutes in the land. They did according to all the abominations of the nations that the Lord drove out before the people of Israel. (تث 23:17) 25 In the fifth year of King Rehoboam, Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem. (2أخ 12:2; 2أخ 12:9) 26 He took away the treasures of the house of the Lord and the treasures of the king’s house. He took away everything. He also took away all the shields of gold that Solomon had made, (1مل 10:17; 1مل 15:18) 27 and King Rehoboam made in their place shields of bronze, and committed them to the hands of the officers of the guard, who kept the door of the king’s house. 28 And as often as the king went into the house of the Lord, the guard carried them and brought them back to the guardroom. 29 Now the rest of the acts of Rehoboam and all that he did, are they not written in the Book of the Chronicles of the Kings of Judah? (2أخ 12:15) 30 And there was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam continually. (1مل 12:21; 1مل 15:6) 31 And Rehoboam slept with his fathers and was buried with his fathers in the city of David. His mother’s name was Naamah the Ammonite. And Abijam his son reigned in his place. (2أخ 12:13; مت 1:7)
