1 Siangpahrang 11

1 Solomon siangpahrang ni Faro canu dueng laipalah Isarel miphun hoeh e Moab, Amon, Edom, Sidon hoi Hit miphun napuinaw hai a ngai.

But king Solomon loved many foreign women, including the daughter of Pharaoh, and women of Moab, and of Ammon, and of Idumea, and of Sidon, and of the Hittites.

2 BAWIPA ni nangmanaw Jentel miphun hoi kâpaluennae na sak mahoeh. Atangcalah ahnimouh teh, amamae cathutnaw e hnuk vah na lungthin a kamlang sak hane telah Isarelnaw koe a dei pouh nakunghai, Solomon ni Jentel miphun napuinaw radueknae lung a tawn.

These were of the nations about whom the Lord said to the sons of Israel: “You shall not enter to them, and none of them shall enter to anyone of yours. For they will most certainly turn aside your hearts, so that you follow their gods.” And yet, to these Solomon was joined with a greatly enflamed love.

3 A yu 700 hoi ado 300 touh a tawn teh, a yunaw ni a lungthin a kamlang sak.

And for him, there were seven hundred wives, as if they were queens, and three hundred concubines. And the women turned aside his heart.

4 Solomon teh a kumcue navah, a yunaw ni a lungthin hah cathut louk koe a kamlang sak. Hottelah a na pa Devit patetlah Cathut Jehovah koelah yuemkamcu hoeh toe.

And when now he was old, his heart was perverted by the women, so that he followed strange gods. And his heart was not perfect with the Lord his God, as was the heart of his father David.

5 Sidon cathut Ashtoreth hoi panuettho e Ammonnaw e cathut milkom e hnuk a kâbang.

For Solomon worshipped Ashtoreth, the goddess of the Sidonians, and Milcom, the idol of the Ammonites.

6 Solomon ni BAWIPA e hmaitung vah yonnae hah a sak teh, a na pa Devit patetlah BAWIPA hah khoeroe tarawi hoeh.

And Solomon did what was not pleasing in the sight of the Lord. And he did not continue to follow the Lord, as his father David did.

7 Solomon ni Jerusalem Kanîtholae mon dawk panuetthopounge Moabnaw e cathut Khemosh hoi panuetthopounge Ammonnaw e cathut Molek hanelah hmuen rasang a kangdue sak.

Then Solomon built a shrine for Chemosh, the idol of Moab, on the mount that is opposite Jerusalem, and for Milcom, the idol of the sons of Ammon.

8 Jentel napuinaw ni a cathut koe thuengnae hmuitui hmaisawi patetlah ahni ni a sak van.

And he acted in this manner for all his foreign wives, who were burning incense and immolating to their gods.

9 Alouke cathut koe a cei hoeh nahanelah, Isarel Cathut Jehovah ni vai hni totouh a kamnue pouh.

And so, the Lord became angry with Solomon, because his mind had been turned away from the Lord, the God of Israel, who had appeared to him twice,

10 Kâ kapoekung hah a lungthin hoi a kamlang takhai dawkvah, Solomon e lathueng BAWIPA a lungkhuek. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA ni lawk a poe e tarawi hoeh.

and who had instructed him about this matter, lest he follow strange gods. But he did not observe what the Lord commanded to him.

11 Hatdawkvah, BAWIPA ni Solomon koe hettelah na sak teh, ka lawkkam hoi phunglawk na tarawi hoeh dawkvah, na uknaeram heh nang koehoi ka la vaiteh, na san koevah ka poe han.

And so, the Lord said to Solomon: “Because you have this with you, and because you have not kept my covenant and my precepts, which I commanded to you, I will tear apart your kingdom, and I will give it to your servant.

12 Hateiteh, na pa Devit kecu dawk na hring nathung teh hote hah ka sak mahoeh. Na capa kut dawk ram kâbawng sak han.

Yet truly, I will not do it in your days, for the sake of your father David. From the hand of your son, I will tear it away.

13 Hatei, ram abuemlah hoi ka lat mahoeh. Ka san Devit hoi ka rawi e Jerusalem kecu dawk miphun buet touh teh na capa koe a ka poe han telah ati.

Neither will I take away the whole kingdom. Instead, I will grant one tribe to your son, for the sake of David, my servant, and Jerusalem, which I have chosen.”

14 BAWIPA ni Edom tami hah Hadad hah Solomon e taran lah a kangdue sak, ahni teh Edom ram e siangpahrang catoun lah ao.

Then the Lord raised up an adversary to Solomon, Hadad of Idumea, from an offspring of the king who was in Idumea.

15 Edom ram dawk Devit a la o teh, a thei e naw pakawp hanelah ransabawi Joab a cei teh, Edom miphun tongpa pueng a thei hnukkhu,

For when David was in Idumea, Joab, the leader of the military, had ascended to bury those who had been killed, and he had killed every male in Idumea.

16 Joab hoi Isarel pueng teh, thapa yung taruk touh thung Edom ram e tongpa pueng he a thei hoehroukrak ao awh.

And Joab remained in that place for six months, with all of Israel, until he had put to death every male in Idumea.

17 Hadad teh a na pa e san Edom miphun a tangawn naw hoi Izip ram koe pha hanelah a yawng awh. Hadad teh camo ca rah.

Then Hadad fled, he and some men of Idumea from among the servants of his father with him, so that he might enter into Egypt. But Hadad was then a little boy.

18 Midian ram hoi a tâco awh teh Paran ram koe a pha awh. Paran e tami tangawn a kaw awh teh, Izip ram, Izip ram siangpahrang koe a pha awh toteh, siangpahrang ni im hoi talai hmuen a poe teh a kawk.

And when they had risen up from Midian, they went into Paran, and they took with them some men from Paran. And they went into Egypt, to Pharaoh, the king of Egypt. And he gave him a house, and he appointed food for him, and he assigned land to him.

19 Hadad teh Faro e mit khet a kantak. A yu e nawngha, siangpahrang Tahpenes e nawngha hah a yu hanelah a poe.

And Hadad found great favor before Pharaoh, so much so that he gave to him as wife, the sister of his own wife, queen Tahpenes.

20 Tahpenes e a nawngha ni, a capa Genubath a khe pouh. Ahni teh Faro im vah Tahpenes ni sanu a pâphei, Genubath teh Faro im vah Faro e a canaw koe kho a sak.

And the sister of Tahpenes bore to him a son, Genubath. And Tahpenes raised him in the house of Pharaoh. And Genubath was living with Pharaoh and his sons.

21 Devit teh a na mintoenaw koe a i tie hoi Joab hai a due toe tie Hadad ni Izip ram hoi a thai toteh, kai hai kamae ram koelah cei hanelah kâ na poe leih telah, Faro siangpahrang koe a kâhei.

And when Hadad had heard in Egypt that David had slept with his fathers, and that Joab, the leader of the military, had died, he said to Pharaoh, “Release me, so that I may go to my own land.”

22 Faro siangpahrang ni, nang teh nama e ram koe lah ban na ngainae na tawn hanelah kai koe bangmaw na ngai rah. Banghai ka ngai hoe. Hatei, cei hane kâ na poe telah bout atipouh.

And Pharaoh said to him, “But what is lacking to you with me, so that you would seek to go to your own land?” But he responded: “Nothing. Yet I beg you that you may release me.”

23 Cathut ni Solomon e taran hanelah Eliada capa Rezon khobawi Hadadezer, Zobah siangpahrang koehoi ka yawng e hah bout a kangdue sak.

Also, God raised up against him an adversary, Rezon, the son of Eliada, who had fled from his lord, Hadad-Ezer, the king of Zobah.

24 Devit ni Zobahnaw a thei navah, ama ni taminaw a pâkhueng teh, ransanaw kaukkung lah yo ao toe. Damaskas kho koe lah a cei teh, kho hah a uk.

And he gathered together men against him. And when David put those of Zobah to death, he became a leader of robbers. And they went away to Damascus, and they lived there. And they appointed him to be king of Damascus.

25 Hadad ni runae a poe e bout a thap sin lahoi Solomon a hringyung thung Isarelnaw e taran lah ao. Siria ram hah a uk teh, Isarelnaw hah puenghoi a hmuhma.

And he was an adversary to Israel during all the days of Solomon. And such is the evil of Hadad and of his hatred against Israel. And he reigned in Syria.

26 Nebat capa Jeroboam Zeradah kho e Ephraim tami Solomon e a san ni hai Solomon teh a taran, a manu e min teh Zeruah, lahmai lah a o

Also, there was Jeroboam, the son of Nebat, an Ephraimite from Zeredah, a servant of Solomon, whose mother was named Zeruah, a widowed woman. He lifted up his hand against the king.

27 Siangpahrang a tarannae a kong lam teh hettelah doeh. Solomon ni Millo kho hah a kangdue sak, a na pa Devit e kho rapan ka rawk e a pathoup.

And this is the reason for his rebellion against him: that Solomon built up Millo, and that he filled in a deep hole in the city of David, his father.

28 Jeroboam teh athakaawme tami lah ao. Solomon ni hote thoundoun teh tami a thakaawm tie hah a panue dawkvah, Joseph imthung thaw ka tawk e lathueng vah kacue e lah a hruek.

Now Jeroboam was a valiant and powerful man. And perceiving the young man to be ingenious and industrious, Solomon appointed him as first ruler over the tributes of the entire house of Joseph.

29 Hatnae tueng dawk hettelah doeh. Jeroboam hah Jerusalem a tâco navah, Shiloh tami profet Ahijah ni lam vah a kâhmo. Ahijah teh hni katha a kâkhu, amamouh roi dueng law vah ao roi.

And it happened, in that time, that Jeroboam departed from Jerusalem. And the prophet Ahijah, the Shilonite, wearing a new cloak, found him on the way. And the two were alone in the field.

30 Ahijah ni a kâkhu e hni katha hah a la teh, hlaikahni touh lah a ravei.

And taking his new cloak, with which he was covered, Ahijah tore it into twelve parts.

31 Jeroboam koevah hete hra touh hah lat nateh, BAWIPA Isarel Cathut ni hettelah a dei. Uknaeram heh kut dawk hoi ka la vaiteh, miphun 10 touh e hah nang koe na poe han.

And he said to Jeroboam: “Take ten pieces for yourself. For thus says the Lord, the God of Israel: ‘Behold, I will tear the kingdom from the hand of Solomon, and I will give to you ten tribes.

32 Ka san Devit hanelah Isarel ram thung dawk kai ni ka rawi e Jerusalem kho kecu dawk Solomon ni ram buet touh a la han.

Yet one tribe shall remain with him, for the sake of my servant, David, as well as Jerusalem, the city which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel.

33 Ram hra touh la pouh ngainae teh, Sidonnaw e cathut napui Ashtoreth hoi Moabnaw e cathut Mikomnaw hah a bawk awh. A na pa Devit patetlah ka hmaitung kalan e sak hanelah kaie lamthung dawn hoeh.

For he has abandoned me, and he has adored Ashtoreth, the goddess of the Sidonians, and Chemosh, the god of Moab, and Milcom, the god of the sons of Ammon. And he has not walked in my ways, so that he would do justice before me, and so that he would carry out my precepts and judgments, as his father David did.

34 Hatei, a uknaeram abuemlahoi koung ka lawm mahoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, kaie kâpoelawknaw hoi phunglawknaw ka poe e a tarawi dawkvah, ka rawi e ka san Devit kecu dawk a hringyung ukkung lah ka o sak han.

But I will not take the entire kingdom from his hand. Instead, I will establish him as the ruler during all the days of his life, for the sake of my servant David, whom I chose, who kept my commandments and my precepts.

35 Solomon e capa kut dawk hoi a uknaeram ka la pouh vaiteh, ram hra touh e nang koe na poe han.

But I will take away the kingdom from the hand of his son, and I will give to you ten tribes.

36 Ka min ao nahane ka rawi e Jerusalem kho dawk, ka hmalah ka san Devit e hmaiim teh pou ka ang e lah ao nahan Solomon capa koe ram buet touh kai ni ka poe han.

Then, to his son, I will give one tribe, so that there may remain a lamp for my servant David before me, for all days, in Jerusalem, the city which I have chosen, so that my name would be there.

37 Nang hah kai ni na la vaiteh, na lungngaie patetlah na uk teh Isarelnaw e lathueng siangpahrang lah na o awh han.

And I will take you up, and you shall reign over all that your soul desires. And you shall be king over Israel.

38 Nang teh, kai ni kâ na poe e naw na tarawi teh, ka san Devit ni a dawn e patetlah kaie phunglawknaw hoi kâpoelawknaw hah na dawn teh, ka hmaitung kalan e na sak pawiteh, nang hoi rei ka o vaiteh, Devit hanelah ka cak poung e im sak e patetlah nang hanelah ka sak vaiteh, Isarel hah nang koe na poe han.

Therefore, if you will listen to all that I will command you, and if you will walk in my ways, and do what is right in my sight, keeping my commandments and my precepts, just as my servant David did, then I will be with you, and I will build for you a faithful house, in the way that I built a house for David, and I will deliver Israel to you.

39 Hete a kong dawk Devit catoun a runae ka poe han. Hatei a yungyoe runae ka poe mahoeh telah ati.

And I will afflict the offspring of David over this, but truly not for all days.’”

40 Solomon ni Jeroboam hah thei hanelah a kâcai. Hatei, Jeroboam a thaw teh, Izip ram, Izip siangpahrang Shishak koe a yawng. Solomon a due totouh Izip ram vah ao.

Therefore, Solomon wanted to kill Jeroboam. But he rose up and fled away to Egypt, to Shishak, the king of Egypt. And he was in Egypt until the death of Solomon.

41 Solomon ni a sak e hno kaawm rae naw hoi ahnie lungangnae naw teh, Solomon ni a thutnae cauk dawk thut e lah ao nahoehmaw.

Now the rest of the words of Solomon, and all that he did, and his wisdom: behold, these are all written in the book of the words of the days of Solomon.

42 Solomon ni Jerusalem kho dawk ao teh, Isarel ram pueng kum 40 touh thung a uk.

And the days that Solomon reigned in Jerusalem, over all of Israel, were forty years.

43 A na mintoenaw hoi reirei a i awh, a na pa Devit kho dawk a pakawp awh. A capa Rehoboam ni a na pa e yueng lah a uk.

And Solomon slept with his fathers, and he was buried in the city of David, his father. And Rehoboam, his son, reigned in his place.
