12 Ku munsi wa gatatu, Yerobowamu n’abantu bose bitaba Rehobowamu, kuko umwami yari yababwiye ati: “Muzagaruke ku munsi wa gatatu.”+ 13 Ariko umwami asubiza abantu ababwira nabi, yirengagiza inama abantu bakuze bari bamugiriye. 14 Abasubiza akurikije inama abasore bari bamugiriye, arababwira ati: “Papa yabikorezaga umutwaro uremereye, ariko njye nzabikoreza uremereye kurushaho. Papa yabakubitishaga ibiboko, ariko njye nzabakubitisha ibiboko bibabaza kurushaho.” 15 Umwami yanze kumva ibyo abaturage bari bamubwiye, kuko ibyabaye byari byatewe na Yehova,+ kugira ngo akore ibihuje n’ibyo yari yaravuze, ibyo Yehova yari yaravuze binyuze kuri Ahiya+ w’i Shilo, abwira Yerobowamu umuhungu wa Nebati.
