2 Chronicles 12

NEW JERUSALEM	LXX
1 When Rehoboam had consolidated the kingdom and become strong, he, and al Israel with him,abandoned the Law of Yahweh;	1 και εγενετο ως ητοιμασθη η βασιλεια ροβοαμ και ως κατεκρατηθη εγκατελιπεν τας εντολας κυριου και πας ισραηλ μετ' αυτου
2 and thus it happened that in the fifth year of King Rehoboam, Shishak king of Egypt marched onJerusalem, because they had been unfaithful to Yahweh,	2 και εγενετο εν τω πεμπτω ετει της βασιλειας ροβοαμ ανεβη σουσακιμ βασιλευς αιγυπτου επι ιερουσαλημ οτι ημαρτον εναντιον κυριου
3 with twelve hundred chariots and sixty thousand cavalry and countless hordes of Libyans, Sukkiimand Cushites who came from Egypt with him.	3 εν χιλιοις και διακοσιοις αρμασιν και εξηκοντα χιλιασιν ιππων και ουκ ην αριθμος του πληθους του ελθοντος μετ' αυτου εξ αιγυπτου λιβυες τρωγλοδυται και αιθιοπες
4 They captured the fortified towns of Judah and reached Jerusalem.	4 και κατεκρατησαν των πολεων των οχυρων αι ησαν εν ιουδα και ηλθεν εις ιερουσαλημ
5 The prophet Shemaiah then came to Rehoboam and the generals of Judah, who had fal en back onJerusalem before Shishak's advance, and said to them, 'Yahweh says this, "You have abandoned me and so Ihave abandoned you into Shishak's clutches." '	5 και σαμαιας ο προφητης ηλθεν προς ροβοαμ και προς τους αρχοντας ιουδα τους συναχθεντας εις ιερουσαλημ απο προσωπου σουσακιμ και ειπεν αυτοις ουτως ειπεν κυριος υμεις εγκατελιπετε με καγω εγκαταλειψω υμας εν χειρι σουσακιμ
6 At this, the Israelite generals and the king humbled themselves and said, 'Yahweh is just!'	6 και ησχυνθησαν οι αρχοντες ισραηλ και ο βασιλευς και ειπαν δικαιος ο κυριος
7 When Yahweh saw that they had humbled themselves, the word of Yahweh came to Shemaiah asfol ows, 'They have humbled themselves. I shal not destroy them but shall grant them some degree ofdeliverance. My retribution wil not be poured out on Jerusalem by means of Shishak;	7 και εν τω ιδειν κυριον οτι ενετραπησαν και εγενετο λογος κυριου προς σαμαιαν λεγων ενετραπησαν ου καταφθερω αυτους και δωσω αυτους ως μικρον εις σωτηριαν και ου μη σταξη ο θυμος μου εν ιερουσαλημ
8 they are nonetheless to become his slaves, so that they may learn the difference between serving meand serving kings of other countries.'	8 οτι εσονται εις παιδας και γνωσονται την δουλειαν μου και την δουλειαν της βασιλειας της γης
9 So Shishak king of Egypt advanced on Jerusalem and carried off the treasures of the Temple and thetreasures of the royal palace. He took everything away, including the golden shields which Solomon had made.	9 και ανεβη σουσακιμ βασιλευς αιγυπτου και ελαβεν τους θησαυρους τους εν οικω κυριου και τους θησαυρους τους εν οικω του βασιλεως τα παντα ελαβεν και ελαβεν τους θυρεους τους χρυσους ους εποιησεν σαλωμων
10 To replace these, King Rehoboam made bronze shields, entrusting them to the commanders of theguard who guarded the king's palace gate.	10 και εποιησεν ροβοαμ θυρεους χαλκους αντ' αυτων και κατεστησεν επ' αυτον σουσακιμ αρχοντας παρατρεχοντων τους φυλασσοντας τον πυλωνα του βασιλεως
11 Whenever the king went to the Temple of Yahweh, the guards would come out carrying them,returning them to the guardroom afterwards.	11 και εγενετο εν τω εισελθειν τον βασιλεα εις οικον κυριου εισεπορευοντο οι φυλασσοντες και οι παρατρεχοντες και οι επιστρεφοντες εις απαντησιν των παρατρεχοντων
12 Because King Rehoboam had humbled himself, the retribution of Yahweh turned away from him soas not to destroy him completely; and there were also some good features in Judah.	12 και εν τω εντραπηναι αυτον απεστραφη απ' αυτου οργη κυριου και ουκ εις καταφθοραν εις τελος και γαρ εν ιουδα ησαν λογοι αγαθοι
13 Thus he was able to strengthen his position in Jerusalem and continue as king; for Rehoboam wasforty-one years old when he came to the throne and remained king for seventeen years in Jerusalem, the citychosen by Yahweh from al the tribes of Israel to put his name there. His mother's name was Naamah theAmmonite.	13 και κατισχυσεν ροβοαμ εν ιερουσαλημ και εβασιλευσεν και τεσσαρακοντα και ενος ετων ροβοαμ εν τω βασιλευσαι αυτον και επτακαιδεκα ετη εβασιλευσεν εν ιερουσαλημ εν τη πολει η εξελεξατο κυριος επονομασαι το ονομα αυτου εκει εκ πασων φυλων υιων ισραηλ και ονομα της μητρος αυτου νοομμα η αμμανιτις
14 But he did wrong in not setting his heart on seeking Yahweh.	14 και εποιησεν το πονηρον οτι ου κατευθυνεν την καρδιαν αυτου εκζητησαι τον κυριον
15 The history of Rehoboam, from first to last, is this not all written down in the records of Shemaiah theprophet and of Iddo the seer? Warfare between Rehoboam and Jeroboam went on throughout the period.	15 και λογοι ροβοαμ οι πρωτοι και οι εσχατοι ουκ ιδου γεγραμμενοι εν τοις λογοις σαμαια του προφητου και αδδω του ορωντος και πραξεις αυτου και επολεμει ροβοαμ τον ιεροβοαμ πασας τας ημερας
16 When Rehoboam fel asleep with his ancestors, he was buried in the City of David; his son Abijahsucceeded him.	16 και απεθανεν ροβοαμ και εταφη μετα των πατερων αυτου και εταφη εν πολει δαυιδ και εβασιλευσεν αβια υιος αυτου αντ' αυτου
