1 Kings 11
1 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.
Men kong Salomo elsket mange fremmede kvinner foruten Faraos datter, moabittiske, ammonittiske, edomittiske, sidoniske, hetittiske,
2 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.
kvinner av de hedningefolk om hvilke Herren hadde sagt til Israels barn: I skal ikke gi eder i lag med dem, og de ikke med eder; ellers kommer de visselig til å vende eders hjerte til sine guder. Til dem holdt Salomo sig og elsket dem.
3 And for him, there were seven hundred wives, as if they were queens, and three hundred concubines. And the women turned aside his heart.
Han hadde syv hundre hustruer av fyrstelig rang og tre hundre medhustruer; disse hans hustruer bøide hans sinn.
4 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.
Og da Salomo blev gammel, vendte hustruene hans hjerte til andre guder, og hans hjerte var ikke helt med Herren hans Gud, således som hans far Davids hjerte hadde vært.
5 For Solomon worshipped Ashtoreth, the goddess of the Sidonians, and Milcom, the idol of the Ammonites.
Og Salomo fulgte Astarte, sidoniernes guddom, og Milkom, ammonittenes vederstyggelighet.
6 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.
Og Salomo gjorde hvad ondt var i Herrens øine, og fulgte ikke trolig efter Herren, således som hans far David hadde gjort.
7 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.
På den tid bygget Salomo en offerhaug for Kamos, Moabs vederstyggelighet, på det fjell som ligger midt imot Jerusalem, og for Molok, Ammons barns vederstyggelighet.
8 And he acted in this manner for all his foreign wives, who were burning incense and immolating to their gods.
Og det samme gjorde han for alle sine fremmede hustruer, som brente røkelse og ofret til sine guder.
9 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,
Da blev Herren vred på Salomo fordi han hadde vendt sitt hjerte bort fra Herren, Israels Gud, som hadde åpenbaret sig for ham to ganger
10 and who had instructed him about this matter, lest he follow strange gods. But he did not observe what the Lord commanded to him.
og uttrykkelig forbudt ham å følge andre guder; men han hadde ikke holdt sig efter Herrens bud.
11 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.
Da sa Herren til Salomo: Siden dette er kommet dig i sinne, og du ikke har holdt min pakt og mine lover, som jeg har gitt dig, så vil jeg rive riket fra dig og gi det til din tjener.
12 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.
Men for din far Davids skyld vil jeg ikke gjøre det i din tid - fra din sønn vil jeg rive riket.
13 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.”
Dog vil jeg ikke rive hele riket fra ham; en stamme vil jeg gi din sønn for min tjener Davids skyld og for Jerusalems skyld, som jeg har utvalgt.
14 Then the Lord raised up an adversary to Solomon, Hadad of Idumea, from an offspring of the king who was in Idumea.
Og Herren opreiste Salomo en motstander i edomitten Hadad; han var av kongeætten i Edom.
15 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.
For dengang David var i Edom, og hærføreren Joab drog op for å begrave de falne og slo ihjel alle menn i Edom.
16 And Joab remained in that place for six months, with all of Israel, until he had put to death every male in Idumea.
i seks måneder blev Joab og hele Israel der, til han hadde utryddet alle menn i Edom -
17 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.
da flyktet Hadad med nogen edomittiske menn som hørte til hans fars tjenere, og tok veien til Egypten. Hadad var dengang en liten gutt.
18 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.
De brøt op fra Midian og kom til Paran; fra Paran tok de nogen menn med sig og kom så til Egypten til Farao, kongen i Egypten, og han gav ham et hus og tilsa ham livsophold og lot ham få jord.
19 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.
Og Hadad fant stor nåde for Faraos øine, så han gav ham til hustru en søster av sin egen hustru, dronning Tahpenes.
20 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.
Og Tahpenes' søster fødte ham sønnen Genubat; Tahpenes avvente ham i Faraos hus, og siden var Genubat i Faraos hus blandt Faraos egne barn.
21 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.”
Da nu Hadad i Egypten fikk høre at David hadde lagt sig til hvile hos sine fedre, og at hærføreren Joab var død, sa han til Farao: La mig fare, så jeg kan dra hjem til mitt land!
22 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.”
Farao sa til ham: Hvad fattes dig her hos mig siden du ønsker å dra hjem til ditt land? Han svarte: Ingen ting; men du må endelig la mig få fare.
23 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.
Gud opreiste Salomo en annen motstander, Reson, Eliadas sønn, som var flyktet fra sin herre Hadadeser, kongen i Soba.
24 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.
Han samlet folk om sig og blev fører for en røverflokk, dengang David slo dem ihjel; og de drog til Damaskus og slo sig ned der og gjorde sig til herrer i Damaskus.
25 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.
Han var en motstander av Israel så lenge Salomo levde, og både han og Hadad voldte Israel skade. Han hatet Israel og var konge over Syria.
26 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.
Så var det en av Salomos tjenere, Jeroboam, Nebats sønn, en efra'imitt fra Sereda: hans mor hette Serua og var enke. Han reiste sig også mot kongen.
27 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.
Og således gikk det til at han reiste sig mot kongen: Salomo bygget på Millo - han vilde lukke det åpne sted i sin far Davids stad.
28 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.
Nu var Jeroboam en dyktig kar, og da Salomo så at den unge mann var en duelig arbeider, satte han ham til å ha tilsyn med alt det arbeid Josefs hus hadde å utføre.
29 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.
På den tid hendte det engang da Jeroboam var gått ut fra Jerusalem, at profeten Akia fra Silo traff ham på veien; han hadde en ny kappe på, og de to var alene på marken.
30 And taking his new cloak, with which he was covered, Ahijah tore it into twelve parts.
Da tok Akia den nye kappe han hadde på, og rev den i tolv stykker.
31 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.
Og han sa til Jeroboam: Ta dig ti stykker! For så sier Herren, Israels Gud: Jeg river riket ut av Salomos hånd og gir dig de ti stammer;
32 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.
men den ene stamme skal han få ha for min tjener Davids skyld og for Jerusalems skyld, den stad som jeg har utvalgt blandt alle Israels stammer.
33 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.
Så vil jeg gjøre fordi de har forlatt mig og tilbedt Astarte, sidoniernes guddom, og Kamos, Moabs gud, og Milkom, Ammons barns gud, og ikke vandret på mine veier og ikke gjort hvad rett er i mine øine, og ikke holdt mine lover og bud, således som hans far David gjorde.
34 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.
Dog vil jeg ikke ta noget av riket fra ham selv, men la ham være fyrste så lenge han lever, for min tjener Davids skyld, som jeg utvalgte, og som holdt sig efter mine bud og lover.
35 But I will take away the kingdom from the hand of his son, and I will give to you ten tribes.
Men jeg vil ta riket fra hans sønn og gi dig det - de ti stammer;
36 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.
men hans sønn vil jeg gi en stamme, forat min tjener David alltid må ha en lampe brennende for mitt åsyn i Jerusalem, den stad jeg har utvalgt mig for å la mitt navn bo der.
37 And I will take you up, and you shall reign over all that your soul desires. And you shall be king over Israel.
Men dig vil jeg ta og la dig råde over alt hvad du attrår, og være konge over Israel.
38 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.
Og hvis du hører på alt det jeg byder dig, og vandrer på mine veier og gjør hvad rett er i mine øine, så du holder mine lover og bud, således som min tjener David gjorde, så vil jeg være med dig og bygge dig et hus som står fast, likesom jeg gjorde for David, og jeg vil gi dig Israel.
39 And I will afflict the offspring of David over this, but truly not for all days.’”
Og Davids ætt vil jeg ydmyke på grunn av det som er gjort, dog ikke for alle tider.
40 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.
Salomo søkte nu å drepe Jeroboam; men Jeroboam tok avsted og flyktet til Egypten, til Sisak, kongen i Egypten, og han blev i Egypten til Salomos død.
41 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.
Hvad som ellers er å fortelle om Salomo, om alt det han gjorde, og om hans visdom, det er opskrevet i Salomos krønike.
42 And the days that Solomon reigned in Jerusalem, over all of Israel, were forty years.
Den tid Salomo var konge i Jerusalem over hele Israel, var firti år.
43 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.
Så la Salomo sig til hvile hos sine fedre og blev begravet i sin far Davids stad, og hans sønn Rehabeam blev konge i hans sted.
