< اَلْمُلُوكِ ٱلْأَوَّلُ 11 >
وَأَحَبَّ ٱلْمَلِكُ سُلَيْمَانُ نِسَاءً غَرِيبَةً كَثِيرَةً مَعَ بِنْتِ فِرْعَوْنَ: مُوآبِيَّاتٍ وَعَمُّونِيَّاتٍ وَأَدُومِيَّاتٍ وَصِيدُونِيَّاتٍ وَحِثِّيَّاتٍ | ١ 1 |
Now King Solomon loved many foreign women, together with the daughter of Pharaoh: women of the Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, Sidonians, and Hittites,
مِنَ ٱلْأُمَمِ ٱلَّذِينَ قَالَ عَنْهُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ لِبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ: «لَا تَدْخُلُونَ إِلَيْهِمْ وَهُمْ لَا يَدْخُلُونَ إِلَيْكُمْ، لِأَنَّهُمْ يُمِيلُونَ قُلُوبَكُمْ وَرَاءَ آلِهَتِهِمْ». فَٱلْتَصَقَ سُلَيْمَانُ بِهَؤُلَاءِ بِٱلْمَحَبَّةِ. | ٢ 2 |
of the nations concerning which the LORD said to the children of Israel, “You shall not go among them, neither shall they come among you, for surely they will turn away your heart after their gods.” Solomon joined to these in love.
وَكَانَتْ لَهُ سَبْعُ مِئَةٍ مِنَ ٱلنِّسَاءِ ٱلسَّيِّدَاتِ، وَثَلَاثُ مِئَةٍ مِنَ ٱلسَّرَارِيِّ، فَأَمَالَتْ نِسَاؤُهُ قَلْبَهُ. | ٣ 3 |
He had seven hundred wives, princesses, and three hundred concubines. His wives turned his heart away.
وَكَانَ فِي زَمَانِ شَيْخُوخَةِ سُلَيْمَانَ أَنَّ نِسَاءَهُ أَمَلْنَ قَلْبَهُ وَرَاءَ آلِهَةٍ أُخْرَى، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ قَلْبُهُ كَامِلًا مَعَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِهِ كَقَلْبِ دَاوُدَ أَبِيهِ. | ٤ 4 |
When Solomon was old, his wives turned away his heart after other gods; and his heart was not perfect with the LORD his God, as the heart of David his father was.
فَذَهَبَ سُلَيْمَانُ وَرَاءَ عَشْتُورَثَ إِلَهَةِ ٱلصِّيدُونِيِّينَ، وَمَلْكُومَ رِجْسِ ٱلْعَمُّونِيِّينَ. | ٥ 5 |
For Solomon went after Ashtoreth the goddess of the Sidonians, and after Milcom the abomination of the Ammonites.
وَعَمِلَ سُلَيْمَانُ ٱلشَّرَّ فِي عَيْنَيِ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَلَمْ يَتْبَعِ ٱلرَّبَّ تَمَامًا كَدَاوُدَ أَبِيهِ. | ٦ 6 |
Solomon did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, and didn’t go fully after the LORD, as David his father did.
حِينَئِذٍ بَنَى سُلَيْمَانُ مُرْتَفَعَةً لِكَمُوشَ رِجْسِ ٱلْمُوآبِيِّينَ عَلَى ٱلْجَبَلِ ٱلَّذِي تُجَاهَ أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَلِمُولَكَ رِجْسِ بَنِي عَمُّونَ. | ٧ 7 |
Then Solomon built a high place for Chemosh the abomination of Moab, on the mountain that is before Jerusalem, and for Molech the abomination of the children of Ammon.
وَهَكَذَا فَعَلَ لِجَمِيعِ نِسَائِهِ ٱلْغَرِيبَاتِ ٱللَّوَاتِي كُنَّ يُوقِدْنَ وَيَذْبَحْنَ لِآلِهَتِهِنَّ. | ٨ 8 |
So he did for all his foreign wives, who burned incense and sacrificed to their gods.
فَغَضِبَ ٱلرَّبُّ عَلَى سُلَيْمَانَ لِأَنَّ قَلْبَهُ مَالَ عَنِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلَّذِي تَرَاءَى لَهُ مَرَّتَيْنِ، | ٩ 9 |
The LORD was angry with Solomon, because his heart was turned away from the LORD, the God of Israel, who had appeared to him twice,
وَأَوْصَاهُ فِي هَذَا ٱلْأَمْرِ أَنْ لَا يَتَّبِعَ آلِهَةً أُخْرَى، فَلَمْ يَحْفَظْ مَا أَوْصَى بِهِ ٱلرَّبُّ. | ١٠ 10 |
and had commanded him concerning this thing, that he should not go after other gods; but he didn’t keep that which the LORD commanded.
فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِسُلَيْمَانَ: «مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّ ذَلِكَ عِنْدَكَ، وَلَمْ تَحْفَظْ عَهْدِي وَفَرَائِضِيَ ٱلَّتِي أَوْصَيْتُكَ بِهَا، فَإِنِّي أُمَزِّقُ ٱلْمَمْلَكَةَ عَنْكَ تَمْزِيقًا وَأُعْطِيهَا لِعَبْدِكَ. | ١١ 11 |
Therefore the LORD said to Solomon, “Because this is done by you, and you have not kept my covenant and my statutes, which I have commanded you, I will surely tear the kingdom from you, and will give it to your servant.
إِلَّا إِنِّي لَا أَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ فِي أَيَّامِكَ، مِنْ أَجْلِ دَاوُدَ أَبِيكَ، بَلْ مِنْ يَدِ ٱبْنِكَ أُمَزِّقُهَا. | ١٢ 12 |
Nevertheless, I will not do it in your days, for David your father’s sake; but I will tear it out of your son’s hand.
عَلَى أَنِّي لَا أُمَزِّقُ مِنْكَ ٱلْمَمْلَكَةَ كُلَّهَا، بَلْ أُعْطِي سِبْطًا وَاحِدًا لِٱبْنِكَ، لِأَجْلِ دَاوُدَ عَبْدِي، وَلِأَجْلِ أُورُشَلِيمَ ٱلَّتِي ٱخْتَرْتُهَا». | ١٣ 13 |
However, I will not tear away all the kingdom; but I will give one tribe to your son, for David my servant’s sake, and for Jerusalem’s sake which I have chosen.”
وَأَقَامَ ٱلرَّبُّ خَصْمًا لِسُلَيْمَانَ: هَدَدَ ٱلْأَدُومِيَّ، كَانَ مِنْ نَسْلِ ٱلْمَلِكِ فِي أَدُومَ. | ١٤ 14 |
The LORD raised up an adversary to Solomon: Hadad the Edomite. He was one of the king’s offspring in Edom.
وَحَدَثَ لَمَّا كَانَ دَاوُدُ فِي أَدُومَ، عِنْدَ صُعُودِ يُوآبَ رَئِيسِ ٱلْجَيْشِ لِدَفْنِ ٱلْقَتْلَى، وَضَرَبَ كُلَّ ذَكَرٍ فِي أَدُومَ. | ١٥ 15 |
For when David was in Edom, and Joab the captain of the army had gone up to bury the slain, and had struck every male in Edom
لِأَنَّ يُوآبَ وَكُلَّ إِسْرَائِيلَ أَقَامُوا هُنَاكَ سِتَّةَ أَشْهُرٍ حَتَّى أَفْنَوْا كُلَّ ذَكَرٍ فِي أَدُومَ. | ١٦ 16 |
(for Joab and all Israel remained there six months, until he had cut off every male in Edom),
أَنَّ هَدَدَ هَرَبَ هُوَ وَرِجَالٌ أَدُومِيُّونَ مِنْ عَبِيدِ أَبِيهِ مَعَهُ لِيَأْتُوا مِصْرَ. وَكَانَ هَدَدُ غُلَامًا صَغِيرًا. | ١٧ 17 |
Hadad fled, he and certain Edomites of his father’s servants with him, to go into Egypt, when Hadad was still a little child.
وَقَامُوا مِنْ مِدْيَانَ وَأَتَوْا إِلَى فَارَانَ، وَأَخَذُوا مَعَهُمْ رِجَالًا مِنْ فَارَانَ وَأَتَوْا إِلَى مِصْرَ، إِلَى فِرْعَوْنَ مَلِكِ مِصْرَ، فَأَعْطَاهُ بَيْتًا وَعَيَّنَ لَهُ طَعَامًا وَأَعْطَاهُ أَرْضًا. | ١٨ 18 |
They arose out of Midian and came to Paran; and they took men with them out of Paran, and they came to Egypt, to Pharaoh king of Egypt, who gave him a house, and appointed him food, and gave him land.
فَوَجَدَ هَدَدُ نِعْمَةً فِي عَيْنَيْ فِرْعَوْنَ جِدًّا، وَزَوَّجَهُ أُخْتَ ٱمْرَأَتِهِ، أُخْتَ تَحْفَنِيسَ ٱلْمَلِكَةِ. | ١٩ 19 |
Hadad found great favor in the sight of Pharaoh, so that he gave him as wife the sister of his own wife, the sister of Tahpenes the queen.
فَوَلَدَتْ لَهُ أُخْتُ تَحْفَنِيسَ جَنُوبَثَ ٱبْنَهُ، وَفَطَمَتْهُ تَحْفَنِيسُ فِي وَسَطِ بَيْتِ فِرْعَوْنَ. وَكَانَ جَنُوبَثُ فِي بَيْتِ فِرْعَوْنَ بَيْنَ بَنِي فِرْعَوْنَ. | ٢٠ 20 |
The sister of Tahpenes bore him Genubath his son, whom Tahpenes weaned in Pharaoh’s house; and Genubath was in Pharaoh’s house among the sons of Pharaoh.
فَسَمِعَ هَدَدُ فِي مِصْرَ بِأَنَّ دَاوُدَ قَدِ ٱضْطَجَعَ مَعَ آبَائِهِ، وَبِأَنَّ يُوآبَ رَئِيسَ ٱلْجَيْشِ قَدْ مَاتَ. فَقَالَ هَدَدُ لِفِرْعَوْنَ: «أَطْلِقْنِي إِلَى أَرْضِي». | ٢١ 21 |
When Hadad heard in Egypt that David slept with his fathers, and that Joab the captain of the army was dead, Hadad said to Pharaoh, “Let me depart, that I may go to my own country.”
فَقَالَ لَهُ فِرْعَوْنُ: «مَاذَا أَعْوَزَكَ عِنْدِي حَتَّى إِنَّكَ تَطْلُبُ ٱلذَّهَابَ إِلَى أَرْضِكَ؟» فَقَالَ: «لَا شَيْءَ، وَإِنَّمَا أَطْلِقْنِي». | ٢٢ 22 |
Then Pharaoh said to him, “But what have you lacked with me, that behold, you seek to go to your own country?” He answered, “Nothing, however only let me depart.”
وَأَقَامَ ٱللهُ لَهُ خَصْمًا آخَرَ: رَزُونَ بْنَ أَلِيدَاعَ، ٱلَّذِي هَرَبَ مِنْ عِنْدِ سَيِّدِهِ هَدَدَ عَزَرَ مَلِكِ صُوبَةَ، | ٢٣ 23 |
God raised up an adversary to him, Rezon the son of Eliada, who had fled from his lord, Hadadezer king of Zobah.
فَجَمَعَ إِلَيْهِ رِجَالًا فَصَارَ رَئِيسَ غُزَاةٍ عِنْدَ قَتْلِ دَاوُدَ إِيَّاهُمْ، فَٱنْطَلَقُوا إِلَى دِمَشْقَ وَأَقَامُوا بِهَا وَمَلَكُوا فِي دِمَشْقَ. | ٢٤ 24 |
He gathered men to himself, and became captain over a troop, when David killed them of Zobah. They went to Damascus and lived there, and reigned in Damascus.
وَكَانَ خَصْمًا لِإِسْرَائِيلَ كُلَّ أَيَّامِ سُلَيْمَانَ، مَعَ شَرِّ هَدَدَ. فَكَرِهَ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَمَلَكَ عَلَى أَرَامَ. | ٢٥ 25 |
He was an adversary to Israel all the days of Solomon, in addition to the mischief of Hadad. He abhorred Israel, and reigned over Syria.
وَيَرُبْعَامُ بْنُ نَابَاطَ، أَفْرَايِمِيٌّ مِنْ صَرَدَةَ، عَبْدٌ لِسُلَيْمَانَ. وَٱسْمُ أُمِّهِ صَرُوعَةُ، وَهِيَ ٱمْرأَةٌ أَرْمَلَةٌ، رَفَعَ يَدَهُ عَلَى ٱلْمَلِكِ. | ٢٦ 26 |
Jeroboam the son of Nebat, an Ephraimite of Zeredah, a servant of Solomon, whose mother’s name was Zeruah, a widow, also lifted up his hand against the king.
وَهَذَا هُوَ سَبَبُ رَفْعِهِ يَدَهُ عَلَى ٱلْمَلِكِ: أَنَّ سُلَيْمَانَ بَنَى ٱلْقَلْعَةَ وَسَدَّ شُقُوقَ مَدِينَةِ دَاوُدَ أَبِيهِ. | ٢٧ 27 |
This was the reason why he lifted up his hand against the king: Solomon built Millo, and repaired the breach of his father David’s city.
وَكَانَ ٱلرَّجُلُ يَرُبْعَامُ جَبَّارَ بَأْسٍ، فَلَمَّا رَأَى سُلَيْمَانُ ٱلْغُلَامَ أَنَّهُ عَامِلٌ شُغْلًا، أَقَامَهُ عَلَى كُلِّ أَعْمَالِ بَيْتِ يُوسُفَ. | ٢٨ 28 |
The man Jeroboam was a mighty man of valor; and Solomon saw the young man that he was industrious, and he put him in charge of all the labor of the house of Joseph.
وَكَانَ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلزَّمَانِ لَمَّا خَرَجَ يَرُبْعَامُ مِنْ أُورُشَلِيمَ، أَنَّهُ لَاقَاهُ أَخِيَّا ٱلشِّيلُونِيُّ ٱلنَّبِيُّ فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ وَهُوَ لَابِسٌ رِدَاءً جَدِيدًا، وَهُمَا وَحْدَهُمَا فِي ٱلْحَقْلِ. | ٢٩ 29 |
At that time, when Jeroboam went out of Jerusalem, the prophet Ahijah the Shilonite found him on the way. Now Ahijah had clad himself with a new garment; and the two of them were alone in the field.
فَقَبَضَ أَخِيَّا عَلَى ٱلرِّدَاءِ ٱلْجَدِيدِ ٱلَّذِي عَلَيْهِ وَمَزَّقَهُ ٱثْنَتَيْ عَشْرَةَ قِطْعَةً | ٣٠ 30 |
Ahijah took the new garment that was on him, and tore it in twelve pieces.
وَقَالَ لِيَرُبْعَامَ: «خُذْ لِنَفْسِكَ عَشَرَ قِطَعٍ، لِأَنَّهُ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ: هَأَنَذَا أُمَزِّقُ ٱلْمَمْلَكَةَ مِنْ يَدِ سُلَيْمَانَ وَأُعْطِيكَ عَشْرَةَ أَسْبَاطٍ. | ٣١ 31 |
He said to Jeroboam, “Take ten pieces; for the LORD, the God of Israel, says, ‘Behold, I will tear the kingdom out of the hand of Solomon and will give ten tribes to you
وَيَكُونُ لَهُ سِبْطٌ وَاحِدٌ مِنْ أَجْلِ عَبْدِي دَاوُدَ وَمِنْ أَجْلِ أُورُشَلِيمَ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ ٱلَّتِي ٱخْتَرْتُهَا مِنْ كُلِّ أَسْبَاطِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، | ٣٢ 32 |
(but he shall have one tribe, for my servant David’s sake and for Jerusalem’s sake, the city which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel),
لِأَنَّهُمْ تَرَكُونِي وَسَجَدُوا لِعَشْتُورَثَ إِلَهَةِ ٱلصِّيدُونِيِّينَ، وَلِكَمُوشَ إِلَهِ ٱلْمُوآبِيِّينَ، وَلِمَلْكُومَ إِلَهِ بَنِي عَمُّونَ، وَلَمْ يَسْلُكُوا فِي طُرُقِي لِيَعْمَلُوا ٱلْمُسْتَقِيمَ فِي عَيْنَيَّ وَفَرَائِضِي وَأَحْكَامِي كَدَاوُدَ أَبِيهِ. | ٣٣ 33 |
because they have forsaken me, and have worshiped Ashtoreth the goddess of the Sidonians, Chemosh the god of Moab, and Milcom the god of the children of Ammon. They have not walked in my ways, to do that which is right in my eyes, and to keep my statutes and my ordinances, as David his father did.
وَلَا آخُذُ كُلَّ ٱلْمَمْلَكَةِ مِنْ يَدِهِ، بَلْ أُصَيِّرُهُ رَئِيسًا كُلَّ أَيَّامِ حَيَاتِهِ لِأَجْلِ دَاوُدَ عَبْدِي ٱلَّذِي ٱخْتَرْتُهُ ٱلَّذِي حَفِظَ وَصَايَايَ وَفَرَائِضِي. | ٣٤ 34 |
“‘However, I will not take the whole kingdom out of his hand, but I will make him prince all the days of his life for David my servant’s sake whom I chose, who kept my commandments and my statutes,
وَآخُذُ ٱلْمَمْلَكَةَ مِنْ يَدِ ٱبْنِهِ وَأُعْطِيكَ إِيَّاهَا، أَيِ ٱلْأَسْبَاطَ ٱلْعَشْرَةَ. | ٣٥ 35 |
but I will take the kingdom out of his son’s hand and will give it to you, even ten tribes.
وَأُعْطِي ٱبْنَهُ سِبْطًا وَاحِدًا، لِيَكُونَ سِرَاجٌ لِدَاوُدَ عَبْدِي كُلَّ ٱلْأَيَّامِ أَمَامِي فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ ٱلَّتِي ٱخْتَرْتُهَا لِنَفْسِي لِأَضَعَ ٱسْمِي فِيهَا. | ٣٦ 36 |
I will give one tribe to his son, that David my servant may have a lamp always before me in Jerusalem, the city which I have chosen for myself to put my name there.
وَآخُذُكَ فَتَمْلِكُ حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا تَشْتَهِي نَفْسُكَ، وَتَكُونُ مَلِكًا عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٣٧ 37 |
I will take you, and you shall reign according to all that your soul desires, and shall be king over Israel.
فَإِذَا سَمِعْتَ لِكُلِّ مَا أُوصِيكَ بِهِ، وَسَلَكْتَ فِي طُرُقِي، وَفَعَلْتَ مَا هُوَ مُسْتَقِيمٌ فِي عَيْنَيَّ، وَحَفِظْتَ فَرَائِضِي وَوَصَايَايَ كَمَا فَعَلَ دَاوُدُ عَبْدِي، أَكُونُ مَعَكَ وَأَبْنِي لَكَ بَيْتًا آمِنًا كَمَا بَنَيْتُ لِدَاوُدَ، وَأُعْطِيكَ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٣٨ 38 |
It shall be, if you will listen to all that I command you, and will walk in my ways, and do that which is right in my eyes, to keep my statutes and my commandments, as David my servant did, that I will be with you, and will build you a sure house, as I built for David, and will give Israel to you.
وَأُذِلُّ نَسْلَ دَاوُدَ مِنْ أَجْلِ هَذَا، وَلَكِنْ لَا كُلَّ ٱلْأَيَّامِ». | ٣٩ 39 |
I will afflict the offspring of David for this, but not forever.’”
وَطَلَبَ سُلَيْمَانُ قَتْلَ يَرُبْعَامَ، فَقَامَ يَرُبْعَامُ وَهَرَبَ إِلَى مِصْرَ إِلَى شِيشَقَ مَلِكِ مِصْرَ. وَكَانَ فِي مِصْرَ إِلَى وَفَاةِ سُلَيْمَانَ. | ٤٠ 40 |
Therefore Solomon sought to kill Jeroboam, but Jeroboam arose and fled into Egypt, to Shishak king of Egypt, and was in Egypt until the death of Solomon.
وَبَقِيَّةُ أُمُورِ سُلَيْمَانَ وَكُلُّ مَا صَنَعَ وَحِكْمَتُهُ أَمَا هِيَ مَكْتُوبَةٌ فِي سِفْرِ أُمُورِ سُلَيْمَانَ؟ | ٤١ 41 |
Now the rest of the acts of Solomon, and all that he did, and his wisdom, aren’t they written in the book of the acts of Solomon?
وَكَانَتِ ٱلْأَيَّامُ ٱلَّتِي مَلَكَ فِيهَا سُلَيْمَانُ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ عَلَى كُلِّ إِسْرَائِيلَ أَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً. | ٤٢ 42 |
The time that Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel was forty years.
ثُمَّ ٱضْطَجَعَ سُلَيْمَانُ مَعَ آبَائِهِ وَدُفِنَ فِي مَدِينَةِ دَاوُدَ أَبِيهِ، وَمَلَكَ رَحُبْعَامُ ٱبْنُهُ عِوَضًا عَنْهُ. | ٤٣ 43 |
Solomon slept with his fathers, and was buried in his father David’s city; and Rehoboam his son reigned in his place.
