2nd Chronicles 12: The End of Rehoboam’s Reign - Parent Category: 2nd Chronicles: Reign of Solomon followed by Divided Kingdom - Category: 2nd Chronicles 10-12: Rehaboam's Kingdom Divided 2 Chronicles 12 Egypt Attacks Judah 12Now it came to pass, when Rehoboam had established the kingdom and had strengthened himself, that he forsook the law of the Lord, and all Israel along with him. 2And it happened in the fifth year of King Rehoboam that Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, because they had transgressed against the Lord, 3with twelve hundred chariots, sixty thousand horsemen, and people without number who came with him out of Egypt—the Lubim and the Sukkiim and the Ethiopians. 4And he took the fortified cities of Judah and came to Jerusalem. 5Then Shemaiah the prophet came to Rehoboam and the leaders of Judah, who were gathered together in Jerusalem because of Shishak, and said to them, “Thus says the Lord: ‘You have forsaken Me, and therefore I also have left you in the hand of Shishak.’ 6So the leaders of Israel and the king humbled themselves; and they said, “The Lord is righteous.” 7Now when the Lord saw that they humbled themselves, the word of the Lord came to Shemaiah, saying, “They have humbled themselves; therefore I will not destroy them, but I will grant them some deliverance. My wrath shall not be poured out on Jerusalem by the hand of Shishak. 8Nevertheless they will be his servants, that they may distinguish My service from the service of the kingdoms of the nations.” 9So Shishak king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem, and took away the treasures of the house of the Lord and the treasures of the king’s house; he took everything. He also carried away the gold shields which Solomon had made. 10Then King Rehoboam made bronze shields in their place, and committed them to the hands of the captains of the guard, who guarded the doorway of the king’s house. 11And whenever the king entered the house of the Lord, the guard would go and bring them out; then they would take them back into the guardroom. 12When he humbled himself, the wrath of the Lord turned from him, so as not to destroy him completely; and things also went well in Judah. The End of Rehoboam’s Reign 13Thus King Rehoboam strengthened himself in Jerusalem and reigned. Now Rehoboam was forty-one years old when he became king; and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city which the Lord had chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, to put His name there. His mother’s name was Naamah, an Ammonitess. 14And he did evil, because he did not prepare his heart to seek the Lord. 15The acts of Rehoboam, first and last, are they not written in the book of Shemaiah the prophet, and of Iddo the seer concerning genealogies? And there were wars between Rehoboam and Jeroboam all their days. 16So Rehoboam rested with his fathers, and was buried in the City of David. Then Abijah his son reigned in his place. 2nd Chronicles 13: Abijah Reigns in Judah - Parent Category: 2nd Chronicles: Reign of Solomon followed by Divided Kingdom - Category: 2nd Chronicles 13-16: Asah's Reforms 2 Chronicles 13 Abijah Reigns in Judah 13In the eighteenth year of King Jeroboam, Abijah became king over Judah. 2He reigned three years in Jerusalem. His mother’s name was Michaiah the daughter of Uriel of Gibeah. And there was war between Abijah and Jeroboam. 3Abijah set the battle in order with an army of valiant warriors, four hundred thousand choice men. Jeroboam also drew up in battle formation against him with eight hundred thousand choice men, mighty men of valor. 4Then Abijah stood on Mount Zemaraim, which is in the mountains of Ephraim, and said, “Hear me, Jeroboam and all Israel: 5Should you not know that the Lord God of Israel gave the dominion over Israel to David forever, to him and his sons, by a covenant of salt? 6Yet Jeroboam the son of Nebat, the servant of Solomon the son of David, rose up and rebelled against his lord. 7Then worthless rogues gathered to him, and strengthened themselves against Rehoboam the son of Solomon, when Rehoboam was young and inexperienced and could not withstand them. 8And now you think to withstand the kingdom of the Lord, which is in the hand of the sons of David; and you are a great multitude, and with you are the gold calves which Jeroboam made for you as gods. 9Have you not cast out the priests of the Lord, the sons of Aaron, and the Levites, and made for yourselves priests, like the peoples of other lands, so that whoever comes to consecrate himself with a young bull and seven rams may be a priest of things that are not gods? 10But as for us, the Lord is our God, and we have not forsaken Him; and the priests who minister to the Lord are the sons of Aaron, and the Levites attend to their duties. 11And they burn to the Lord every morning and every evening burnt sacrifices and sweet incense; they also set the showbread in order on the pure gold table, and the lampstand of gold with its lamps to burn every evening; for we keep the command of the Lord our God, but you have forsaken Him. 12Now look, God Himself is with us as our head, and His priests with sounding trumpets to sound the alarm against you. O children of Israel, do not fight against the Lord God of your fathers, for you shall not prosper!” 13But Jeroboam caused an ambush to go around behind them; so they were in front of Judah, and the ambush was behind them. 14And when Judah looked around, to their surprise the battle line was at both front and rear; and they cried out to the Lord, and the priests sounded the trumpets. 15Then the men of Judah gave a shout; and as the men of Judah shouted, it happened that God struck Jeroboam and all Israel before Abijah and Judah. 16And the children of Israel fled before Judah, and God delivered them into their hand. 17Then Abijah and his people struck them with a great slaughter; so five hundred thousand choice men of Israel fell slain. 18Thus the children of Israel were subdued at that time; and the children of Judah prevailed, because they relied on the Lord God of their fathers. 19And Abijah pursued Jeroboam and took cities from him: Bethel with its villages, Jeshanah with its villages, and Ephrain with its villages. 20So Jeroboam did not recover strength again in the days of Abijah; and the Lord struck him, and he died. 21But Abijah grew mighty, married fourteen wives, and begot twenty-two sons and sixteen daughters. 22Now the rest of the acts of Abijah, his ways, and his sayings are written in the annals of the prophet Iddo. 2nd Chronicles 14: Asa Reigns over Judah - Parent Category: 2nd Chronicles: Reign of Solomon followed by Divided Kingdom - Category: 2nd Chronicles 13-16: Asah's Reforms 2 Chronicles 14 Asa Reigns over Judah 14So Abijah rested with his fathers, and they buried him in the City of David. Then Asa his son reigned in his place. In his days the land was quiet for ten years. 2Asa did what was good and right in the eyes of the Lord his God, 3for he removed the altars of the foreign gods and the high places, and broke down the sacred pillars and cut down the wooden images. 4He commanded Judah to seek the Lord God of their fathers, and to observe the law and the commandment. 5He also removed the high places and the incense altars from all the cities of Judah, and the kingdom was quiet under him. 6And he built fortified cities in Judah, for the land had rest; he had no war in those years, because the Lord had given him rest. 7Therefore he said to Judah, “Let us build these cities and make walls around them, and towers, gates, and bars, while the land is yet before us, because we have sought the Lord our God; we have sought Him, and He has given us rest on every side.” So they built and prospered. 8And Asa had an army of three hundred thousand from Judah who carried shields and spears, and from Benjamin two hundred and eighty thousand men who carried shields and drew bows; all these were mighty men of valor. 9Then Zerah the Ethiopian came out against them with an army of a million men and three hundred chariots, and he came to Mareshah. 10So Asa went out against him, and they set the troops in battle array in the Valley of Zephathah at Mareshah. 11And Asa cried out to the Lord his God, and said, “Lord, it is nothing for You to help, whether with many or with those who have no power; help us, O Lord our God, for we rest on You, and in Your name we go against this multitude. O Lord, You are our God; do not let man prevail against You!” 12So the Lord struck the Ethiopians before Asa and Judah, and the Ethiopians fled. 13And Asa and the people who were with him pursued them to Gerar. So the Ethiopians were overthrown, and they could not recover, for they were broken before the Lord and His army. And they carried away very much spoil. 14Then they defeated all the cities around Gerar, for the fear of the Lord came upon them; and they plundered all the cities, for there was exceedingly much spoil in them. 15They also attacked the livestock enclosures, and carried off sheep and camels in abundance, and returned to Jerusalem. 2nd Chronicles 15: The Reforms of Asa - Parent Category: 2nd Chronicles: Reign of Solomon followed by Divided Kingdom - Category: 2nd Chronicles 13-16: Asah's Reforms 2 Chronicles 15 The Reforms of Asa 15Now the Spirit of God came upon Azariah the son of Oded. 2And he went out to meet Asa, and said to him: “Hear me, Asa, and all Judah and Benjamin. The Lord is with you while you are with Him. If you seek Him, He will be found by you; but if you forsake Him, He will forsake you. 3For a long time Israel has been without the true God, without a teaching priest, and without law; 4but when in their trouble they turned to the Lord God of Israel, and sought Him, He was found by them. 5And in those times there was no peace to the one who went out, nor to the one who came in, but great turmoil was on all the inhabitants of the lands. 6So nation was destroyed by nation, and city by city, for God troubled them with every adversity. 7But you, be strong and do not let your hands be weak, for your work shall be rewarded!” 8And when Asa heard these words and the prophecy of Oded the prophet, he took courage, and removed the abominable idols from all the land of Judah and Benjamin and from the cities which he had taken in the mountains of Ephraim; and he restored the altar of the Lord that was before the vestibule of the Lord. 9Then he gathered all Judah and Benjamin, and those who dwelt with them from Ephraim, Manasseh, and Simeon, for they came over to him in great numbers from Israel when they saw that the Lord his God was with him. 10So they gathered together at Jerusalem in the third month, in the fifteenth year of the reign of Asa. 11And they offered to the Lord at that time seven hundred bulls and seven thousand sheep from the spoil they had brought. 12Then they entered into a covenant to seek the Lord God of their fathers with all their heart and with all their soul; 13and whoever would not seek the Lord God of Israel was to be put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman. 14Then they took an oath before the Lord with a loud voice, with shouting and trumpets and rams’ horns. 15And all Judah rejoiced at the oath, for they had sworn with all their heart and sought Him with all their soul; and He was found by them, and the Lord gave them rest all around. 16Also he removed Maachah, the mother of Asa the king, from being queen mother, because she had made an obscene image of Asherah; and Asa cut down her obscene image, then crushed and burned it by the Brook Kidron. 17But the high places were not removed from Israel. Nevertheless the heart of Asa was loyal all his days. 18He also brought into the house of God the things that his father had dedicated and that he himself had dedicated: silver and gold and utensils. 19And there was no war until the thirty-fifth year of the reign of Asa. 2nd Chronicles 16: Illness and Death of Asa - Parent Category: 2nd Chronicles: Reign of Solomon followed by Divided Kingdom - Category: 2nd Chronicles 13-16: Asah's Reforms 2 Chronicles 16 Asa’s Treaty with Syria 16In the thirty-sixth year of the reign of Asa, Baasha king of Israel came up against Judah and built Ramah, that he might let none go out or come in to Asa king of Judah. 2Then Asa brought silver and gold from the treasuries of the house of the Lord and of the king’s house, and sent to Ben-Hadad king of Syria, who dwelt in Damascus, saying, 3“Let there be a treaty between you and me, as there was between my father and your father. See, I have sent you silver and gold; come, break your treaty with Baasha king of Israel, so that he will withdraw from me.” 4So Ben-Hadad heeded King Asa, and sent the captains of his armies against the cities of Israel. They attacked Ijon, Dan, Abel Maim, and all the storage cities of Naphtali. 5Now it happened, when Baasha heard it, that he stopped building Ramah and ceased his work. 6Then King Asa took all Judah, and they carried away the stones and timber of Ramah, which Baasha had used for building; and with them he built Geba and Mizpah. Hanani’s Message to Asa 7And at that time Hanani the seer came to Asa king of Judah, and said to him: “Because you have relied on the king of Syria, and have not relied on the Lord your God, therefore the army of the king of Syria has escaped from your hand. 8Were the Ethiopians and the Lubim not a huge army with very many chariots and horsemen? Yet, because you relied on the Lord, He delivered them into your hand. 9For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show Himself strong on behalf of those whose heart is loyal to Him. In this you have done foolishly; therefore from now on you shall have wars.” 10Then Asa was angry with the seer, and put him in prison, for he was enraged at him because of this. And Asa oppressed some of the people at that time. Illness and Death of Asa 11Note that the acts of Asa, first and last, are indeed written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel. 12And in the thirty-ninth year of his reign, Asa became diseased in his feet, and his malady was severe; yet in his disease he did not seek the Lord, but the physicians. 13So Asa rested with his fathers; he died in the forty-first year of his reign. 14They buried him in his own tomb, which he had made for himself in the City of David; and they laid him in the bed which was filled with spices and various ingredients prepared in a mixture of ointments. They made a very great burning for him.

2 इतिहास अध्याय 13 जब राजा यारोबाम अठाह्रौं वर्षमा इस्राएलका राजा भए अबियाह यहूदाका नयाँ राजा भए। 2 अबियाह तीन वर्ष सम्म यरूशलेममा राजा थिए। अबियाहकी आमा माका थिइन्। माका उरीएलकी छोरी थिइन्। उरीएल गिबा शहरका थिए। अनि अबियाह र यारोबामका माझ युद्ध चलिरहेथ्यो। 3 अबियाहका सेनामा 4,00,000 साहसी सैनिकहरू थिए। अबियाहले त्यस सेनालाई युद्धमा अगुवाइ गरे। यारोबामका सेनामा 8,00,000 साहसी सैनिकहरू थिए। यारोबाम अबियाहसित युद्ध गर्न तयार भए। 4 तब अबियाह एप्रैमको पहाडी देशको समारैम डाँडामा उभिए। अबियाहले भने, “यारोबाम अनि समस्त इस्राएलीहरू, मेरो कुरा सुन। 5 तिमीहरूले यो जान्नु पर्छ कि इस्राएलका परमप्रभु परमेश्वरले दाऊद अनि तिनका छोराहरूलाई सदा सर्बदा इस्राएलका राजा हुने अधिकार दिनु भएको छ। परमेश्वरले दाऊदसित नूनको करार द्वारा यो दिनु भएको हो। 6 तर यारोबाम आफ्ना स्वामीका विरूद्ध भए। यारोबाम नबातको नाति, दाऊदका छोरा सुलेमानका एक सेवक थिए। 7 तब, अयोग्य दुष्ट मानिसहरू यारोबामका मित्रहरू थिए अनि तिनीहरूले एकै साथ रहबाम सुलेमानका छोराको विरोध गरे। रहबाम सानै र अनुभवहीन थिए। यसर्थ उसले यारोबाम अनि तिनका दुष्ट साथीहरूलाई रोक्न सकेनन्। 8 “अब, तिमी मानिसहरूले परमप्रभुको राज्यलाई त्यो राज्य जसलाई दाऊदका छोराहरूले शासन गरेका छन् परास्त गर्ने निश्चय गरेका छौ। तिनीहरू सित धैरे मानिसहरू छन् अनि तिमीहरूका ती सुनौला बाछाहरू ती ‘देवताहरू’ छन् जो यारोबामले तिम्रा निम्ति बनाए। 9 तिमीले परमप्रभुका पूजाहारीहरूलाई निकाली बाहिर गर्यौ, जो हारूनका सन्तानहरू थिए। अनि तिमीले लेवीहरूलाई निकाली बाहिर गर्यौ। त्यस पछि तिमीले, पृथ्वीका हरेक राष्ट्रले जस्तै आफ्नै पूजाहारीहरू छान्यौ। अनि अहिले कुनै पनि व्यक्ति जसले एउटा बाछा अनि सातवटा भेंडा ल्याउने छ, त्यो पूजाहारी हुन सक्छ-’ती झुट्टा देवताहरूको सेवा गर्ने पूजाहारी।’ 10 “तर हाम्रो निम्ति, परमप्रभु हाम्रा परमेश्वर हुनु हुन्छ। हामी यहूदाका मानिसले परमेश्वरको आज्ञा पालन गर्न अस्वीकार गरेका छैनौं। हामीले उहाँलाई छाडेका छैनौं। पूजाहारीहरू जसले परमप्रभुको सेवा गर्छन् हारूनका छोराहरू हुन्। अनि लेवीहरू परमप्रभुको सेवा गर्नमा पूजाहारीहरूलाई सहयोग गर्छन्। 11 तिनीहरू हरेक साँझ विहान परमप्रभुलाई होमबलि अर्पण गर्छन् र सुगन्धीत धूप बाल्छन्। तिनीहरूले मन्दिरको विशेष मेजमा लहरमा रोटी राख्छन्। अनि तिनीहरू सुनौला सामदानमा बत्तीहरूको हेरचाह गर्छन् जसद्वारा उच्यालो रूपले प्रत्येक साँझ चम्कन्छन्। हामी अत्यन्त सावधानीपूर्वक परमप्रभु हाम्रा परमेश्वरको सेवा गर्छौ तर तिमी मानिसहरूले उहाँलाई त्याग गरेका छौ। 12 परमेश्वर स्वयं हाम्रो साथ हुनु हुन्छ। उहाँ हाम्रा शासक हुनु हुन्छ अनि उहाँका पूजाहारीहरू हामीसित छन्। परमेश्वरका पूजाहारीहरूले तिमीहरूलाई व्यूँझाउन् अनि तिमीहरूलाई उहाँको आगमनमा उत्तेजित तुल्याउनका निम्ति आफ्ना तुरही बजाउँछन्। इस्राएलका मानिसहरू हो, तिम्रा पुर्खाहरूका परमप्रभु परमेश्वरको विरूद्ध नलड। तिमीहरू सफल हुने छैनौं।” 13 तर यारोबामले सैनिकको एक दललाई अबियाहको सेनाको पछिल्तिर सुटुक्क पठाए। यारोबामका सेना अबियाहको सेना समक्ष थिए। यारोबामका सेनाका गुप्त सैनिकहरू अबियाहका सेनाका पछि थिए। 14 जब अबियाहका सेनामा भएका यहूदी सैनिकहरूले वरिपरि हेरे तब तिनीहरूले यारोबामका सेनाले अघि पछि दुवै तिरबाट आक्रमण गरेका देखे। यहूदाका मानिसहरूले परमप्रभुलाई जोडले पुकारे अनि पूजाहारीहरूले तुरही बजाए। 15 त्यसपछि अबियाहका सेनाका मानिसहरू जोडले कराए। जब यहूदाका मानिसहरू कराए परमेश्वरले यारोबामका सेनालाई परास्त गरिदिनु भयो। यारोबामका सबै इस्राएलका सेनाहरू अबियाहका यहूदाका सेनाहरू द्वारा परास्त भए। 16 इस्राएलका मानिसहरू यहूदाका मानिसहरूदेखि भागे। परमेश्वरले इस्राएलका सेनाहरूलाई परास्त गर्न यहूदाका सेनाहरूलाई अनुमति दिनु भयो। 17 अनि इस्राएलका 5,00,000 सर्वोत्तम मानिसहरू मारिए। 18 यसरी त्यस बेला इस्राएलका मानिसहरू परास्त भए। यहूदाका मानिसहरूले विजय प्राप्त गरे। यहूदाका सेनाले विजय प्राप्त गरे किनभने तिनीहरूले आफ्ना पिता-पुर्खाहरूका परमप्रभु परमेश्वर माथि भरोसा राखे। 19 अबियाहका सेनाले यारोबामका सेनालाई खेदे। अबियाहका सेनाले यारोबामबाट बेतेल, येशना अनि एप्रोन शहरहरू कब्जा गरे। तिनीहरूले ती शहरहरू अनि ती शहरहरू नजिकका सा-साना गाउँहरू अधिकारमा ल्याए। 20 जबसम्म अबियाह जीवित रहे यारोबाम फेरि कहिल्यै शक्तिशाली भएनन्। परमप्रभुले यारोबामलाई मारिदिनु भयो। 21 अनि अबियाह शक्तिशाली बने। तिनले चौध जना स्त्रीहरू विवाह गरे अनि बाईस जना छोरा र सोह्रजना छोरीहरूका पिता थिए। 22 अन्य सबै कुरा जो अबियाहले गरे सो अगमवक्ता इद्दोका पुस्तकहरूमा लेखिएका छन्।
