1 Kings 11
1 King Solomon loved many foreign women. Besides Pharaoh's daughter, there were women from the Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, Sidonians, and Hittites.
Toe Solomon siangpahrang loe Faro canu pacoengah, kalah nongpata Moab kami, Ammon kami, Edom kami, Sidon kami hoi Hit kaminawk to a koeh.
2 They were from the nations that the Lord had warned the Israelites, “You must not intermarry with them, for they will undoubtedly convince you to worship their gods.” Yet Solomon because of his love for women held on to them.
To nongpatanawk loe prae kalah kami ah oh o pongah, nihcae to zu haih hmah; na zu haih nahaeloe, nihcae mah angmacae ih sithawnawk khaeah na palungthin ang paqoi o ving tih, tiah Israel kaminawk khaeah thuih pae ih kami ah oh o. Toe Solomon loe to nongpatanawk to koeh khruek.
3 He had seven hundred wives of noble birth and three hundred concubines. His wives did convince him to turn away from the Lord.
Anih loe siangpahrang imthungah kaom zu cumvai sarihto hoi zula cumvai thumto tawnh; a zunawk mah anih ih poekhaih palungthin to amkhraeng o sak ving.
4 As Solomon grew old, his wives led him to follow other gods, and he did not commit himself wholeheartedly to the Lord as his father David had done.
Solomon mitong na bangah loe a zunawk mah, kalah sithawnawk khaeah palungthin paqoi pae o ving; ampa David poekhaih palungthin baktiah, a poekhaih palungthin kakoep ah Angraeng khaeah caeh boih ai boeh.
5 Solomon worshiped Ashtoreth, goddess of the Sidonians, and Molech, vile god of the Ammonites.
Solomon loe Sidon kaminawk ih sithaw nongpata Ashtoreth hoi panuet thok Ammon kaminawk ih sithaw Milkom khaeah caeh.
6 This was how Solomon did evil in the Lord's sight, and was not completely dedicated to the Lord as his father David was.
Solomon loe Angraeng mikhnuk ah kasae hmuen to sak; ampa David mah sak ih baktiah, Angraeng khaeah palungthin boih hoi caeh ai boeh.
7 It was then that Solomon built a high place of worship for Chemosh, the vile god of the people of Moab, and for Molech, the vile god of the Ammonites, on a hill east of Jerusalem.
Solomon loe Jerusalem hmaa ah kaom mae nuiah, panuet thok Moab sithaw Khemosh hoi panuet thok Ammon kaminawk ih Molek sithaw hanah, hmuensang to sak pae.
8 He built places of worship for all his foreign wives where they burned incense and sacrificed to their gods.
To tiah prae kalah zunawk boih hanah a sak pae; nihcae loe hmuihoih thlaek o moe, angmacae ih sithawnawk khaeah angbawnhaih to sak o.
9 The Lord became angry with Solomon because he had turned away from the Lord, the God of Israel, who had appeared to him twice.
Anih khaeah vai hnetto angphong, Israel Angraeng Sithaw khae hoi palungthin angqoi taak ving boeh pongah, Angraeng loe Solomon nuiah palungphui.
10 The Lord had warned Solomon about this—that he should not worship other gods. But Solomon did not listen to the Lord's warning.
Kalah sithawnawk hnukah caeh han ai ah Solomon khaeah lokthuih pae, toe anih mah Angraeng mah paek ih lok to pakuem ai.
11 So the Lord told him, “Since this is what you have done, and since you have not kept my agreement and my laws that I commanded, I will definitely take the kingdom away from you and give it to your servant.
Angraeng mah Solomon khaeah, Hae tiah na sak moe, kang paek ih lokkamhaih hoi kang paek ih daannawk to na pazui ai boeh pongah, na prae to ka phraek moe, na tamnanawk khaeah ka paek han boeh.
12 However, for the sake of your father David, I will not do this in your lifetime—I will take it away from your son.
Toe nampa David pongah to hmuen to na hing thung ka sah mak ai; na capa ban thungah ka phraek han.
13 Even then I will not take away the whole kingdom. I will leave your son with one tribe for the sake of my servant David, and for the sake of my chosen city Jerusalem.”
Toe prae to ka phrae boih mak ai; ka tamna David hoi ka qoih ih Jerusalem pongah, acaeng maeto loe na capa khaeah ka paek han, tiah a naa.
14 Then the Lord encouraged Hadad the Edomite of Edom's royal family to oppose Solomon.
To naah Angraeng mah Edom siangpahrang imthung takoh kami ah kaom, Edom kami Hadad to Solomon han misa angthawksak.
15 Previously, when David was in Edom, Joab the commander of the Israelite army had gone to bury some of his soldiers who had been killed, and had slaughtered every male in Edom.
David loe Edom prae ah oh naah, misatuh angraeng Joab mah Edom kami nongpa to hum boih moe, kadueh kaminawk aphum hanah caeh tahang;
16 Joab and the whole Israelite army had spent six months there destroying them all.
Joab hoi Israel kaminawk boih to ah khrah tarukto thung oh o; Edom kami nongpanawk hum boih ai karoek to to ahmuen ah oh o.
17 But Hadad and some Edomites who had been his father's officials had run away to Egypt—Hadad was just a boy at the time.
To nathuem ah Hadah loe nawkta ah ni oh vop, anih loe ampa ih tamna Edom angraeng thoemto kaminawk hoi Izip prae ah cawnh.
18 They left Midian and went to Paran. Then, along with some people from Paran, they went to Egypt, to Pharaoh king of Egypt. He provided Hadad with a house and food, and also assigned him land as a gift.
Midian prae hoiah angthawk moe, Paran prae ah a caeh o; to ahmuen hoiah Paran kaminawk to kawk o moe, Izip prae ah, Izip siangpahrang Faro khaeah phak o, siangpahrang mah Hadad to im maeto hoi long ahmuen to paek moe, caaknaek doeh a paek.
19 Pharaoh became very friendly with Hadad, and he gave him the sister of his own wife to marry, Queen Tahpenes' sister.
Faro loe Hadad to palung parai pongah, a zu siangpahrang nongpata Tahpenes ih amnawk to zu ah a paek.
20 She gave birth to his son called Genubath. Tahpenes brought him up in Pharaoh's palace with Pharaoh's own children.
Tahpenes ih amnawk loe caa nongpa maeto sak moe, Genubath, tiah ahmin sak; anih loe Tahpenes mah siangpahrang im ah tahnu amphisak; Genubath loe Faro imthung takoh ah Faro ih caanawk hoi nawnto oh.
21 However, when news reached Hadad in Egypt that both David and Joab, the commander of the army, had died, Hadad said to Pharaoh, “Let me leave and return to my own country.”
Izip prae ah oh naah, David loe ampanawk khaeah anghak boeh moe, misatuh angraeng Joab doeh duek boeh, tiah Hadad mah thaih naah, Hadad mah Faro khaeah, Kaimah prae ah amlaemsak let lai ah, tiah a naa.
22 Pharaoh asked him, “Is there anything that you have lacked here with me that now you want to go back to your own country?” “No, there's nothing,” Hadad replied, “but please just let me go home.”
Hae ah timaw angaihaih oh moe, nangmah prae ah amlaem let han na thuih, tiah Faro mah a naa. Hadah mah, Ka ngaihaih tidoeh om ai, toe amlaemsak rae ah, tiah a naa.
23 God also encouraged Rezon, son of Eliada, to oppose Solomon. He had run away from his master Hadadezer, king of Zobah. After David had destroyed Zobah's army,
Sithaw mah Eliada capa Rezon to kalah Solomon ih misa ah angthawksak; anih loe angmah ih angraeng, Zobah siangpahrang Hadadezar khae hoi kaproeng ving kami ah oh;
24 Rezon gathered around him a rebel band, and became their leader. They went and settled in Damascus, where they took over.
anih mah ataeng ih kaminawk to kok moe, David mah Zobah ih misatuh kaminawk hum naah, anih loe misa angthawk abu zaehoikung ah oh; nihcae loe Damaska vangpui ah caeh o moe, vangpui to lak o pacoengah, to ah khosak o.
25 Rezon was Israel's enemy throughout Solomon's lifetime which added to the trouble Hadad caused. Rezon really hated Israel, and was the ruler of Aram.
Hadad loe raihaih paekkung ah oh khue ai ah, Solomon hing thung Rezon loe Israelnawk ih misa ah oh; Rezon mah Syria to uk moe, Israel kaminawk to hnukma.
26 In addition, Jeroboam, son of Nebat, rebelled against the king. One of Solomon's officials, he was an Ephraimite from Zeredah. His mother was a widow called Zeruah.
Solomon ih tamna, Ephraim acaeng, Zereda avang ih kami, Neba capa Jeroboam mah doeh, siangpahrang to tuk; anih ih amno loe lamhmaih ah oh moe, Zeruah, tiah ahmin kawk o.
27 This is why he rebelled against the king: Solomon had built the terraces and had closed the gap in the wall of the city of his father David.
Solomon mah Millo vangpui to sak moe, ampa David ih kamro sipae to sak patomh let pongah, anih mah siangpahrang to tuk.
28 Jeroboam was a man of ability, and when Solomon realized how successful he was in what he did, he placed him command of all the forced labor of the tribes of Joseph.
Jeroboam loe thacak parai misatuh kami ah oh; to thendoeng loe toksakhaih bangah tha pathok thaih kami ni, tiah Solomon mah hnuk naah, Joseph imthung takoh toksah zaehoikung ah a suek.
29 Around that time the prophet Ahijah the Shilonite met Jeroboam on the road as he was leaving Jerusalem.
To nathuem ah Jeroboam loe Jerusalem ah caeh, Shiloh ih tahmaaa Ahijah mah anih to loklam ah hnuk; anih loe khukbuen kangtha to angkhuk moe, Jeroboam to dawt, to naah angmah hnik bueng ni taw ah oh hoi;
30 Ahijah had wrapped himself in a new cloak, and the two of them were by themselves in the countryside. Ahijah took the new cloak he was wearing and ripped it up into twelve pieces.
Ahijah loe angmah abuen ih khukbuen kangtha to hatlaihnetto ah a sih moe,
31 He said, “Jeroboam, take ten pieces. This is what the Lord God of Israel says. ‘Jeroboam, I am the Lord, the God of Israel, and I am going to take Solomon's kingdom from him and give you ten of the tribes.
Jeroboam khaeah, Nangmah hanah hato la ah, Israel Angraeng Sithaw mah hae tiah thuih; Khenah, Solomon ban ah prae to ka phraek han, acaeng hato loe nang kang paek han.
32 One tribe will be left for the sake of my servant David and for the sake of Jerusalem, the city I chose from among all the tribes of Israel.
Toe ka tamna David hoi Israel acaengnawk boih thungah ka qoih ih, Jerusalem vangpui pongah, anih doeh acaeng maeto tawn toeng tih.
33 This is because they have abandoned me and bowed down in worship of Ashtoreth, goddess of the Sidonians, Chemosh, god of the Moabites, and Molech, god of the Ammonites. They have not followed my ways; they have not done what is right in my sight; they have not kept my commandments and laws as David, Solomon's father, did.
Kai ang pahnawt o moe, Sidon kaminawk ih sithaw nongpata Ashtoreth, Moab kaminawk ih sithaw Khemosh hoi Ammon kaminawk ih sithaw Milkom to bok o pongah, ka loklam ah caeh o ai; ka mikhnuk ah katoeng hmuen doeh sah o ai; Solomon ampa David baktiah, Ka paek ih daan hoi ka lok takroekhaihnawk doeh pazui o ai.
34 Even so, I'm not going to take the whole kingdom from Solomon, because I made him ruler for his lifetime for the sake of my servant David. I chose him because he kept my commandments and laws.
Toe Solomon ih ban thung hoiah prae to ka la pae boih mak ai; ka lokpaekhaih hoi ka thuih ih lok pazui moe, ka qoih ih ka tamna David pongah, a hing thung ukkung ah ka sak han.
35 But I will take from his son's kingdom ten tribes and give them to you.
Toe a capa ban thung hoiah prae to ka lak moe, nang khaeah acaeng hato kang paek han.
36 I will give his son one tribe, so that my servant David will always have a descendant like a lamp before me in Jerusalem, the city where I chose to be honored.
Ka hmin suek hanah ka qoih ih Jerusalem vangpui thungah, ka tamna David mah ka hmaa ah hmai paang poe thai hanah, a capa khaeah acaeng maeto ka paek han.
37 I will take you, and you shall reign over everything that you want. You will be king over Israel.
Toe nang to kang qoih han, Israel nuiah siangpahrang ah na om ueloe, na koeh baktiah na uk tih.
38 If you accept everything that I command you, if you follow my ways, if you do what is right in my sight, keeping my laws and commandments as my servant David did, then I will be with you. I will set up for you a dynasty that lasts, just as I did for David, and I will give Israel to you.
Kang paek ih loknawk boih na tahngaih moe, ka tamna David mah sak ih baktih toengah, ka caehhaih loklam ah na caeh; ka hmaa ah katoeng hmuen to na sak moe, ka mikhnuk ah katoeng hmuen to na sak nahaeloe, nang hoi nawnto ka oh moe, David hanah kacak im ka sak pae baktih toengah, nang hanah doeh kang sak pae moe, nang khaeah Israel to kang paek han.
39 I will punish David's descendants because of this, but not forever.”
Hae pongah David ih caanawk to patang ka khangsak; toe dungzan ah patang ka khangsak ai, tiah a thuih, tiah a naa.
40 So Solomon tried to kill Jeroboam. But Jeroboam ran away to Egypt, to Shishak king of Egypt. He remained there until Solomon's death.
Solomon mah Jeroboam hum hanah pakrong pongah, Jeroboam loe angthawk moe, Izip prae ah Shishak siangpahrang khaeah cawnh, Solomon duek khoek to to ah oh.
41 The record of the rest of the acts of Solomon, including everything he did, and his wisdom, are written in the Book of the Acts of Solomon.
Solomon siangpahrang ah oh nathung kaom hmuennawk, a sak ih hmuennawk hoi anih palunghahaihnawk boih loe, Solomon toksak pakuemhaih cabu thungah tarik o na ai maw?
42 Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all of Israel for a total of forty years.
Solomon siangpahrang loe Israel kaminawk boih nuiah, Jerusalem ah saning quipalito thung siangpahrang ah oh.
43 Solomon died and was buried in the city of his father David. His son Rehoboam succeeded him as king.
To pacoengah ampanawk khaeah anghak moe, ampa David vangpui ah aphum o; anih zuengah a capa Rehoboam to siangpahrang ah oh.
