1 But king 4428 Solomon 8010 loved 157 many 7227 strange 5237 women 802, together with the daughter 1323 of Pharaoh 6547, women of the Moabites 4125, Ammonites 5984, Edomites 130, Zidonians 6722, and Hittites 2850;
2 Of the nations 1471 concerning which the LORD 3068 said 559 unto the children 1121 of Israel 3478, Ye shall not go in 935 to them, neither shall they come in 935 unto you: for surely 403 they will turn away 5186 your heart 3824 after 310 their gods 430: Solomon 8010 clave 1692 unto these in love 157.
3 And he had seven 7651 hundred 3967 wives 802, princesses 8282, and three 7969 hundred 3967 concubines 6370: and his wives 802 turned away 5186 his heart 3820.
4 For it came to pass, when 6256 Solomon 8010 was old 2209, that his wives 802 turned away 5186 his heart 3824 after 310 other 312 gods 430: and his heart 3824 was not perfect 8003 with the LORD 3068 his God 430, as was the heart 3824 of David 1732 his father 1.
5 For Solomon 8010 went 3212 after 310 Ashtoreth 6253 the goddess 430 of the Zidonians 6722, and after 310 Milcom 4445 the abomination 8251 of the Ammonites 5984.
6 And Solomon 8010 did 6213 evil 7451 in the sight 5869 of the LORD 3068, and went not fully 4390 after 310 the LORD 3068, as did David 1732 his father 1.
7 Then did Solomon 8010 build 1129 an high place 1116 for Chemosh 3645, the abomination 8251 of Moab 4124, in the hill 2022 that is before 6440 Jerusalem 3389, and for Molech 4432, the abomination 8251 of the children 1121 of Ammon 5983.
8 And likewise did 6213 he for all his strange 5237 wives 802, which burnt incense 6999 and sacrificed 2076 unto their gods 430.
9 And the LORD 3068 was angry 599 with Solomon 8010, because his heart 3824 was turned 5186 from the LORD 3068 God 430 of Israel 3478, which had appeared 7200 unto him twice 6471,
10 And had commanded 6680 him concerning this thing 1697, that he should not go 3212 after 310 other 312 gods 430: but he kept 8104 not that which the LORD 3068 commanded 6680.
11 Wherefore the LORD 3068 said 559 unto Solomon 8010, Forasmuch as this is done of thee, and thou hast not kept 8104 my covenant 1285 and my statutes 2708, which I have commanded 6680 thee, I will surely 7167 rend 7167 the kingdom 4467 from thee, and will give 5414 it to thy servant 5650.
12 Notwithstanding in thy days 3117 I will not do 6213 it for David 1732 thy father's 1 sake: but I will rend 7167 it out of the hand 3027 of thy son 1121.
13 Howbeit 7535 I will not rend away 7167 all the kingdom 4467; but will give 5414 one 259 tribe 7626 to thy son 1121 for David 1732 my servant's 5650 sake, and for Jerusalem's 3389 sake which I have chosen 977.
14 And the LORD 3068 stirred up 6965 an adversary 7854 unto Solomon 8010, Hadad 1908 the Edomite 130: he was of the king's 4428 seed 2233 in Edom 123.
15 For it came to pass, when David 1732 was in Edom 123, and Joab 3097 the captain 8269 of the host 6635 was gone up 5927 to bury 6912 the slain 2491, after he had smitten 5221 every male 2145 in Edom 123;
16 (For six 8337 months 2320 did Joab 3097 remain 3427 there with all Israel 3478, until he had cut off 3772 every male 2145 in Edom 123:)
17 That Hadad 111 fled 1272, he and certain 582 Edomites 130 of his father's 1 servants 5650 with him, to go 935 into Egypt 4714; Hadad 1908 being yet a little 6996 child 5288.
18 And they arose 6965 out of Midian 4080, and came 935 to Paran 6290: and they took 3947 men 582 with them out of Paran 6290, and they came 935 to Egypt 4714, unto Pharaoh 6547 king 4428 of Egypt 4714; which gave 5414 him an house 1004, and appointed 559 him victuals 3899, and gave 5414 him land 776.
19 And Hadad 1908 found 4672 great 3966 favour 2580 in the sight 5869 of Pharaoh 6547, so that he gave 5414 him to wife 802 the sister 269 of his own wife 802, the sister 269 of Tahpenes 8472 the queen 1377.
20 And the sister 269 of Tahpenes 8472 bare 3205 him Genubath 1592 his son 1121, whom Tahpenes 8472 weaned 1580 in 8432 Pharaoh's 6547 house 1004: and Genubath 1592 was in Pharaoh's 6547 household 1004 among 8432 the sons 1121 of Pharaoh 6547.
21 And when Hadad 1908 heard 8085 in Egypt 4714 that David 1732 slept 7901 with his fathers 1, and that Joab 3097 the captain 8269 of the host 6635 was dead 4191, Hadad 1908 said 559 to Pharaoh 6547, Let me depart 7971, that I may go 3212 to mine own country 776.
22 Then Pharaoh 6547 said 559 unto him, But what hast thou lacked 2638 with me, that, behold, thou seekest 1245 to go 3212 to thine own country 776? And he answered 559, Nothing: howbeit let me go 7971 in any wise 7971.
23 And God 430 stirred him up 6965 another adversary 7854, Rezon 7331 the son 1121 of Eliadah 450, which fled 1272 from his lord 113 Hadadezer 1909 king 4428 of Zobah 6678:
24 And he gathered 6908 men 582 unto him, and became captain 8269 over a band 1416, when David 1732 slew 2026 them of Zobah: and they went 3212 to Damascus 1834, and dwelt 3427 therein, and reigned 4427 in Damascus 1834.
25 And he was an adversary 7854 to Israel 3478 all the days 3117 of Solomon 8010, beside the mischief 7451 that Hadad 1908 did: and he abhorred 6973 Israel 3478, and reigned 4427 over Syria 758.
26 And Jeroboam 3379 the son 1121 of Nebat 5028, an Ephrathite 673 of Zereda 6868, Solomon's 8010 servant 5650, whose mother's 517 name 8034 was Zeruah 6871, a widow 490 woman 802, even he lifted up 7311 his hand 3027 against the king 4428.
27 And this was the cause 1697 that he lifted up 7311 his hand 3027 against the king 4428: Solomon 8010 built 1129 Millo 4407, and repaired 5462 the breaches 6556 of the city 5892 of David 1732 his father 1.
28 And the man 376 Jeroboam 3379 was a mighty man 1368 of valour 2428: and Solomon 8010 seeing 7200 the young man 5288 that he was industrious 6213 4399, he made him ruler 6485 over all the charge 5447 of the house 1004 of Joseph 3130.
29 And it came to pass at that time 6256 when Jeroboam 3379 went out 3318 of Jerusalem 3389, that the prophet 5030 Ahijah 281 the Shilonite 7888 found 4672 him in the way 1870; and he had clad 3680 himself with a new 2319 garment 8008; and they two 8147 were alone in the field 7704:
30 And Ahijah 281 caught 8610 the new 2319 garment 8008 that was on him, and rent 7167 it in twelve 8147 6240 pieces 7168:
31 And he said 559 to Jeroboam 3379, Take 3947 thee ten 6235 pieces 7168: for thus saith 559 the LORD 3068, the God 430 of Israel 3478, Behold, I will rend 7167 the kingdom 4467 out of the hand 3027 of Solomon 8010, and will give 5414 ten 6235 tribes 7626 to thee:
32 (But he shall have one 259 tribe 7626 for my servant 5650 David's 1732 sake, and for Jerusalem's 3389 sake, the city 5892 which I have chosen 977 out of all the tribes 7626 of Israel 3478:)
33 Because that they have forsaken 5800 me, and have worshipped 7812 Ashtoreth 6253 the goddess 430 of the Zidonians 6722, Chemosh 3645 the god 430 of the Moabites 4124, and Milcom 4445 the god 430 of the children 1121 of Ammon 5983, and have not walked 1980 in my ways 1870, to do 6213 that which is right 3477 in mine eyes 5869, and to keep my statutes 2708 and my judgments 4941, as did David 1732 his father 1.
34 Howbeit I will not take 3947 the whole kingdom 4467 out of his hand 3027: but I will make 7896 him prince 5387 all the days 3117 of his life 2416 for David 1732 my servant's 5650 sake, whom I chose 977, because he kept 8104 my commandments 4687 and my statutes 2708:
35 But I will take 3947 the kingdom 4410 out of his son's 1121 hand 3027, and will give 5414 it unto thee, even ten 6235 tribes 7626.
36 And unto his son 1121 will I give 5414 one 259 tribe 7626, that David 1732 my servant 5650 may have a light 5216 alway 3117 before 6440 me in Jerusalem 3389, the city 5892 which I have chosen 977 me to put 7760 my name 8034 there.
37 And I will take 3947 thee, and thou shalt reign 4427 according to all that thy soul 5315 desireth 183, and shalt be king 4428 over Israel 3478.
38 And it shall be, if thou wilt hearken 8085 unto all that I command 6680 thee, and wilt walk 1980 in my ways 1870, and do 6213 that is right 3477 in my sight 5869, to keep 8104 my statutes 2708 and my commandments 4687, as David 1732 my servant 5650 did 6213; that I will be with thee, and build 1129 thee a sure 539 house 1004, as I built 1129 for David 1732, and will give 5414 Israel 3478 unto thee.
39 And I will for this afflict 6031 the seed 2233 of David 1732, but not for ever 3117.
40 Solomon 8010 sought 1245 therefore to kill 4191 Jeroboam 3379. And Jeroboam 3379 arose 6965, and fled 1272 into Egypt 4714, unto Shishak 7895 king 4428 of Egypt 4714, and was in Egypt 4714 until the death 4194 of Solomon 8010.
41 And the rest 3499 of the acts 1697 of Solomon 8010, and all that he did 6213, and his wisdom 2451, are they not written 3789 in the book 5612 of the acts 1697 of Solomon 8010?
42 And the time 3117 that Solomon 8010 reigned 4427 in Jerusalem 3389 over all Israel 3478 was forty 705 years 8141.
43 And Solomon 8010 slept 7901 with his fathers 1, and was buried 6912 in the city 5892 of David 1732 his father 1: and Rehoboam 7346 his son 1121 reigned 4427 in his stead.
