4 "Din Fader lagde et hårdt Åg på os, men let du nu det hårde Arbejde for os, som din Fader krævede, og det tunge Åg, han lagde på os, så vil vi tjene dig!"
4 “Your father made our yoke hard; now therefore lighten the hard service of your father and his heavy yoke which he put on us, and we will serve you.”
6 Derpå rådførte Kong Rehabeam sig med de gamle, der havde stået i hans Fader Salomos Tjeneste, dengang han levede, og spurgte dem: "Hvad råder I mig til at svare dette Folk?"
6 Then King Rehoboam consulted with the elders who had served his father Solomon while he was still alive, saying, “How do you counsel me to answer this people?”
10 De unge, der var vokset op sammen med ham, sagde da til ham: "Således skal du svare dette Folk, som sagde til dig: Din Fader lagde et tungt Åg på os, let du det for os! Således skal du svare dem: Min Lillefinger er tykkere end min Faders Hofter!
10 The young men who grew up with him spoke to him, saying, “Thus you shall say to the people who spoke to you, saying, ‘Your father made our yoke heavy, but you make it lighter for us.’ Thus you shall say to them, ‘My little finger is thicker than my father’s loins!
11 Har derfor min Fader lagt et tungt Åg på eder, vil jeg gøre Åget tungere; har min Fader tugtet eder med Svøber, vil jeg tugte eder med Skorpioner!"
11 Whereas my father loaded you with a heavy yoke, I will add to your yoke; my father disciplined you with whips, but I will discipline you with scorpions.’”
14 sagde han efter de unges Råd til dem: "Har min Fader lagt et tungt Åg på eder, vil jeg gøre det tungere; har min Fader tugtet eder med Svøber, vil jeg tugte eder med Skorpioner!"
14 He 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.”
15 Kongen hørte ikke på Folket, thi Gud føjede det således for at opfylde det Ord, HERREN havde talet ved Ahija fra Silo til Jerøboam, Nebats Søn.
15 So the king did not listen to the people, for it was a turn of events from God that the Lord might establish His word, which He spoke through Ahijah the Shilonite to Jeroboam the son of Nebat.
16 Men da hele Israel mærkede, at Kongen ikke hørte på dem, gav Folket Kongen det Svar: "Hvad Del har vi i David? Vi har ingen Lod i Isajs Søn! Til dine Telte, Israel! Sørg nu, David, for dit eget Hus!" Derpå vendte Israel tilbage til sine Telte.
16 When all Israel saw that the king did not listen to them the people answered the king, saying,“What portion do we have in David?We have no inheritance in the son of Jesse.Every man to your tents, O Israel;Now look after your own house, David.”So all Israel departed to their tents.
18 Nu sendte Kong Rehabeam Adoniram, der havde Opsyn med Hoveriarbejdet, ud til dem, men Israeliterne stenede ham til Døde. Da steg Kong Rehabeam i største Hast op på sin Stridsvogn og flygtede til Jerusalem.
18 Then King Rehoboam sent Hadoram, who was over the forced labor, and the sons of Israel stoned him to death. And King Rehoboam made haste to mount his chariot to flee to Jerusalem.
