Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not necessarily natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible—click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed as a tool for Bible-translators and others doing comparisons of different translations—the older translations are further down the page (so you can read up from the bottom to trace the English translation history). The OET segments on this page are still early looks into the drafted texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible—please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

BrTr (KI1 12:24a) So king Solomon sleeps with his fathers, and is buried with his fathers in the city of David; and Roboam his son reigned in his stead in Jerusalem, being sixteen years old [fn]when he began to reign, and he reigned twelve years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Naanan, daughter of Ana son of Naas king of the children of Ammon. And he did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord, and walked not in the way of David his father.


12:24a Gr. in his reigning.

BrTr (KI1 12:24b) And there was a man of mount Ephraim, a servant to Solomon, and his name was Jeroboam; and the name of his mother was Sarira, a harlot; and Solomon made him head of the levies of the house of Joseph: and he built for Solomon Sarira in mount Ephraim; and he had three hundred chariots of horses: he built the citadel with the levies of the house of Ephraim; he fortified the city of David, and aspired to the kingdom.

There are three levels of quotation here. The author is quoting what Yahweh said to Shemaiah (level 1), continuing from the previous verse. At the start of this verse, Yahweh is speaking directly to Shemaiah (level 2). Yahweh then tells Shemaiah what he wants him to say to Rehoboam and the people with him (level 3). Use the appropriate punctuation in your language to mark these levels of quotation. Alternatively, you could translate this so that there are not second-level or third-level quotations.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicitinfo

לֹֽא־תַעֲלוּ֩

not go_up

See how you translated the similar expression in 1:25. Yahweh is speaking of travel to a higher elevation, specifically, from Judah to “Shechem in the hill country of Ephraim,” which Jeroboam made his capital, as the author explains in the next verse. Alternate translation: [You shall not go]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

אֲחֵי⁠כֶ֣ם

countrymen_of,your(pl)

Yahweh is speaking as if the people of the northern tribes were actually brothers to the people of Judah. He means that they are all descendants of the same ancestor, Jacob. Your language may have a comparable expression that you can use in your translation, or you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [your kinsmen]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

שׁ֚וּבוּ אִ֣ישׁ לְ⁠בֵית֔⁠וֹ

return (a)_man to,his_own_of,house

Yahweh is using a man to his house as a common expression of this culture to mean that the soldiers should not continue this military campaign. Instead, each one should go back to his home and family. If this phrase does not have that meaning in your language, you could use a comparable expression from your language that does have that meaning, or you could state the meaning plainly. If you have already translated the book of 2 Samuel, see how you translated the similar expression “a man to his tent” in 2 Samuel 18:17, which similarly refers to a cessation of military activities. Alternate translation: [Each of you, leave the army and return home]

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

The author is using the term word to represent what Yahweh said by using words. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [what Yahweh had said to them … just as Yahweh had told them to do]

Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / ellipsis

The author is leaving out some of the words that in many languages a sentence would need in order to be complete. You can supply these words from the context if that would be clearer in your language. Alternate translation: [and they returned from the military campaign in order to go home]
