Liber II Paralipomenon

Cumque roboratum fuisset regnum Roboam et confortatum, dereliquit legem Domini, et omnis Israël cum eo.

And when the kingdom of Roboam was strengthened and fortified, he forsook the law of the Lord, and all Israel with him.

Cumque robora es regno Roboame et conforta, derelinque lege de Domino, et omni Israële cum eo.

Anno autem quinto regni Roboam, ascendit Sesac rex Ægypti in Jerusalem (quia peccaverant Domino)

And in the fifth year of the reign of Roboam, Sesac king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem (because they had sinned against the Lord)

Anno autem quinto de regno Roboame, ascende Sesace rege de Aegypto in Ierusalem (quia pecca ad Domino)

cum mille ducentis curribus, et sexaginta millibus equitum: nec erat numerus vulgi quod venerat cum eo ex Ægypto, Libyes scilicet, et Troglodytæ, et Æthiopes.

With twelve hundred chariots and threescore thousand horsemen: and the people were without number that came with him out of Egypt, to wit, Libyans, and Troglodites, and Ethiopians.

Cum mile ducenti curres, et sexaginta mile de equites: nec es numero de vulgo quod veni cum eo ex Aegypto, Libye id es, et de Troglodyta, et Aethiope.

Cepitque civitates munitissimas in Juda, et venit usque in Jerusalem.

And he took the strongest cities in Juda, and came to Jerusalem.

Et cape civitates munito in Iuda, et veni usque in Ierusalem.

Semeias autem propheta ingressus est ad Roboam, et principes Juda qui congregati fuerant in Jerusalem, fugientes Sesac: dixitque ad eos: Hæc dicit Dominus: Vos reliquistis me, et ego reliqui vos in manu Sesac.

And Semeias the prophet came to Roboam, and to the princes of Juda, that were gathered together in Jerusalem, fleeing from Sesac, and he said to them: Thus saith the Lord: You have left me, and I have left you in the hand of Sesac.

Semeiase autem propheta ingredior es ad Roboame, et principes Iuda qui congrega es in Ierusalem, fuge Sesace: et dic ad illos: Domino dic hoc: vos relinque me, et me relinque vos in manu Sesace.

Consternatique principes Israël et rex, dixerunt: Justus est Dominus.

And the princes of Israel, and the king, being in a consternation, said: The Lord is just.

Et consterna principes Israële et rege, dic: iusto es Domino.

Cumque vidisset Dominus quod humiliati essent, factus est sermo Domini ad Semeiam, dicens: Quia humiliati sunt, non disperdam eos, daboque eis pauxillum auxilii, et non stillabit furor meus super Jerusalem per manum Sesac.

And when the Lord saw that they were humbled, the word of the Lord came to Semeias, saying: Because they are humbled, I will not destroy them, and I will give them a little help, and my wrath shall not fall upon Jerusalem by the hand of Sesac.

Cumque Domino vide quod humilia es, facto es sermone de Domino ad Semeia, dicente: quia humilia es, non disperde illos, et da ad illos pauxillo de auxilio, et non furore meo stilla super Ierusalem per manu Sesace.

Verumtamen servient ei, ut sciant distantiam servitutis meæ, et servitutis regni terrarum.

But yet they shall serve him, that they may know the difference between my service, and the service of a kingdom of the earth.

Verumtamen servi ad illo, ut sci distantia de servitute meo, et de servitute de regno de terras.

Recessit itaque Sesac rex Ægypti ab Jerusalem, sublatis thesauris domus Domini et domus regis: omniaque secum tulit, et clypeos aureos quos fecerat Salomon:

So Sesac king of Egypt departed from Jerusalem, taking away the treasures of the king's house, and he took all with him, and the golden shields that Solomon had made,

Recede itaque Sesace rege de Aegypto ab Ierusalem, tolle thesauros de domo de Domino et domo de rege: et omni se fer, et clypeis aurea Salomone fac que:

pro quibus fecit rex æneos, et tradidit illos principibus scutariorum, qui custodiebant vestibulum palatii.

Instead of which the king made brazen ones, and delivered them to the captains of the shieldbearers, who guarded the entrance of the palace.

Pro que rege aenea fac, et trade illos ad principes de scutarios, qui custodi vestibulo de palatii.

Cumque introiret rex domum Domini, veniebant scutarii et tollebant eos, iterumque referebant eos ad armamentarium suum.

And when the king entered into the house of the Lord, the shieldbearers came and took them, and brought them back again to their armoury.

Cumque rege introi domo de Domino, veni scutarios et tolle illos, et iterum refer illos ad armamentario suo.

Verumtamen quia humiliati sunt, aversa est ab eis ira Domini, nec deleti sunt penitus: siquidem et in Juda inventa sunt opera bona.

But yet because they were humbled, the wrath of the Lord turned away from them, and they were not utterly destroyed: for even in Juda there were found good works.

Verumtamen quia humilia es, averte es ab illos ira de Domino, nec dele es penitus: siquidem et in Iuda inveni es operes bono.

Confortatus est ergo rex Roboam in Jerusalem, atque regnavit: quadraginta autem et unius anni erat cum regnare cœpisset, et decem et septem annis regnavit in Jerusalem, urbe quam elegit Dominus ut confirmaret nomen suum ibi, de cunctis tribubus Israël: nomen autem matris ejus Naama Ammanitis.

King Roboam therefore was strengthened in Jerusalem, and reigned: he was one and forty years old when he began to reign, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city which the Lord chose out of all the tribes of Israel, to establish his name there: and the name of his mother was Naama an Ammonitess.

Conforta es ergo rege Roboame in Ierusalem, et regna: quadraginta autem et de uno de anno es cum regna incipe, et deceme et septeme anno regna in Ierusalem, urbe Domino elige quam ut confirma nomine suo ibi, de cuncta tribus Israële: nomine autem de matre de illo Naama Ammanites.

Fecit autem malum, et non præparavit cor suum ut quæreret Dominum.

But he did evil, and did not prepare his heart to seek the Lord.

Fac autem malo, et non praepara corde suo ut quaere Domino.

Opera vero Roboam prima et novissima scripta sunt in libris Semeiæ prophetæ, et Addo videntis, et diligenter exposita: pugnaveruntque adversum se Roboam et Jeroboam cunctis diebus.

Now the acts of Roboam first and last are written in the books of Semeias the prophet, and of Addo the seer, and diligently recorded: and there was war between Roboam and Jeroboam all their days.

Operas vero Roboame primo et novissimo scribe es in libros de Semeia prophetas, et Adde vide, et diligenter expone: et pugna contra se Roboame et Ieroboame cuncta dies.

Et dormivit Roboam cum patribus suis, sepultusque est in civitate David: et regnavit Abia filius ejus pro eo.

And Roboam slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David. And Abia his son reigned in his stead.

Et Roboame dormi cum patres suo, et sepeli es in civitate Davide: et Abia filio de illo regna pro eo.
