| | 1 | 罗波安的国坚立，他强盛的时候就离弃耶和华的律法，以色列人也都随从他。
After Rehoboam's position as king was established and he had become strong, he and all Israel with him abandoned the law of the LORD. | |
| | 2 | 罗波安王第五年，埃及王示撒上来攻打耶路撒冷，因为王和民得罪了耶和华。
Because they had been unfaithful to the LORD, Shishak king of Egypt attacked Jerusalem in the fifth year of King Rehoboam. | |
| | 3 | 示撒带战车一千二百辆，马兵六万，并且跟从他出埃及的路比人，苏基人，和古实人，多得不可胜数。
With twelve hundred chariots and sixty thousand horsemen and the innumerable troops of Libyans, Sukkites and Cushites that came with him from Egypt, | |
| | 4 | 他攻取了犹大的坚固城，就来到耶路撒冷。
he captured the fortified cities of Judah and came as far as Jerusalem. | |
| | 5 | 那时，犹大的首领因为示撒就聚集在耶路撒冷。有先知示玛雅去见罗波安和众首领，对他们说，耶和华如此说，你们离弃了我，所以我使你们落在示撒手里。
Then the prophet Shemaiah came to Rehoboam and to the leaders of Judah who had assembled in Jerusalem for fear of Shishak, and he said to them, "This is what the LORD says, 'You have abandoned me; therefore, I now abandon you to Shishak.'" | |
| | 6 | 于是王和以色列的众首领都自卑说，耶和华是公义的。
The leaders of Israel and the king humbled themselves and said, "The LORD is just." | |
| | 7 | 耶和华见他们自卑，耶和华的话就临到示玛雅说，他们既自卑，我必不灭绝他们。必使他们略得拯救，我不借着示撒的手将我的怒气倒在耶路撒冷。
When the LORD saw that they humbled themselves, this word of the LORD came to Shemaiah: "Since they have humbled themselves, I will not destroy them but will soon give them deliverance. My wrath will not be poured out on Jerusalem through Shishak. | |
| | 8 | 然而他们必作示撒的仆人，好叫他们知道，服事我与服事外邦人有何分别。
They will, however, become subject to him, so that they may learn the difference between serving me and serving the kings of other lands." | |
| | 9 | 于是，埃及王示撒上来攻取耶路撒冷，夺了耶和华殿和王宫里的宝物，尽都带走，又夺去所罗门制造的金盾牌。
When Shishak king of Egypt attacked Jerusalem, he carried off the treasures of the temple of the LORD and the treasures of the royal palace. He took everything, including the gold shields Solomon had made. | |
| | 10 | 罗波安王制造铜盾牌代替那金盾牌，交给守王宫门的护卫长看守。
So King Rehoboam made bronze shields to replace them and assigned these to the commanders of the guard on duty at the entrance to the royal palace. | |
| | 11 | 王每逢进耶和华的殿，护卫兵就拿这盾牌，随后仍将盾牌送回，放在护卫房。
Whenever the king went to the LORD'S temple, the guards went with him, bearing the shields, and afterward they returned them to the guardroom. | |
| | 12 | 王自卑的时候，耶和华的怒气就转消了，不将他灭尽，并且在犹大中间也有善益的事。
Because Rehoboam humbled himself, the LORD'S anger turned from him, and he was not totally destroyed. Indeed, there was some good in Judah. | |
| | 13 | 罗波安王自强，在耶路撒冷作王。他登基的时候年四十一岁，在耶路撒冷，就是耶和华从以色列众支派中所选择立他名的城，作王十七年。罗波安的母亲名叫拿玛，是亚扪人。
King Rehoboam established himself firmly in Jerusalem and continued as king. He was forty-one years old when he became king, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city the LORD had chosen out of all the tribes of Israel in which to put his Name. His mother's name was Naamah; she was an Ammonite. | |
| | 14 | 罗波安行恶，因他不立定心意寻求耶和华。
He did evil because he had not set his heart on seeking the LORD. | |
| | 15 | 罗波安所行的事，自始至终不都写在先知示玛雅和先见易多的史记上吗？罗波安与耶罗波安时常争战。
As for the events of Rehoboam's reign, from beginning to end, are they not written in the records of Shemaiah the prophet and of Iddo the seer that deal with genealogies? There was continual warfare between Rehoboam and Jeroboam. | |
| | 16 | 罗波安与他列祖同睡，葬在大卫城里。他儿子亚比雅接续他作王。
Rehoboam rested with his fathers and was buried in the City of David. And Abijah his son succeeded him as king. | |
