1 Kings 11
1 But king Solomon loved many strange women, together with the daughter of Pharaoh, women of the Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, Sidonians, and Hittites;
Rex autem Salomon adamavit mulieres alienigenas multas, filiam quoque Pharaonis, et Moabitidas, et Ammonitidas, Idumaeas, et Sidonias, et Cethaeas:
2 Of the nations concerning which Yhwh said unto the children of Israel, Ye shall not go in to them, neither shall they come in unto you: for surely they will turn away your heart after their gods: Solomon clave unto these in love.
de gentibus, super quibus dixit Dominus filiis Israel: Non ingrediemini ad eas, neque de illis ingredientur ad vestras: certissime enim avertent corda vestra ut sequamini deos earum. His itaque copulatus est Salomon ardentissimo amore.
3 And he had seven hundred wives, princesses, and three hundred concubines: and his wives turned away his heart.
Fueruntque ei uxores quasi reginae septingentae, et concubinae trecentae: et averterunt mulieres cor eius.
4 For it came to pass, when Solomon was old, that his wives turned away his heart after other gods: and his heart was not perfect with Yhwh his God, as was the heart of David his father.
Cumque iam esset senex, depravatum est cor eius per mulieres, ut sequeretur deos alienos: nec erat cor eius perfectum cum Domino Deo suo, sicut cor David patris eius.
5 For Solomon went after Ashtoreth the goddess of the Sidonians, and after Milcom the abomination of the Ammonites.
Sed colebat Salomon Astarthen deam Sidoniorum, et Chamos Deus Moabitarum, et Moloch idolum Ammonitarum.
6 And Solomon did evil in the sight of Yhwh, and went not fully after Yhwh, as did David his father.
Fecitque Salomon quod non placuerat coram Domino, et non adimplevit ut sequeretur Dominum, sicut David pater eius.
7 Then did Solomon build an high place for Chemosh, the abomination of Moab, in the hill that is before Jerusalem, and for Molech, the abomination of the children of Ammon.
Tunc aedificavit Salomon fanum Chamos, idolo Moab, in monte qui est contra Ierusalem, et Moloch idolo filiorum Ammon.
8 And likewise did he for all his strange wives, which burnt incense and sacrificed unto their gods.
Atque in hunc modum fecit universis uxoribus suis alienigenis, quae adolebant thura, et immolabant diis suis.
9 And Yhwh was angry with Solomon, because his heart was turned from Yhwh God of Israel, which had appeared unto him twice,
Igitur iratus est Dominus Salomoni, quod aversa esset mens eius a Domino Deo Israel, qui apparuerat ei secundo,
10 And had commanded him concerning this thing, that he should not go after other gods: but he kept not that which Yhwh commanded.
et praeceperat de verbo hoc ne sequeretur deos alienos, et non custodivit quae mandavit ei Dominus.
11 Wherefore Yhwh said unto Solomon, Forasmuch as this is done of thee, and thou hast not kept my covenant and my statutes, which I have commanded thee, I will surely rend the kingdom from thee, and will give it to thy servant.
Dixit itaque Dominus Salomoni: Quia habuisti hoc apud te, et non custodisti pactum meum, et praecepta mea, quae mandavi tibi, disrumpens scindam regnum tuum, et dabo illud servo tuo.
12 Notwithstanding in thy days I will not do it for David thy father’s sake: but I will rend it out of the hand of thy son.
Verumtamen in diebus tuis non faciam propter David patrem tuum: de manu filii tui scindam illud,
13 Howbeit I will not rend away all the kingdom; but will give one tribe to thy son for David my servant’s sake, and for Jerusalem’s sake which I have chosen.
nec totum regnum auferam, sed tribum unam dabo filio tuo propter David servum meum, et Ierusalem quam elegi.
14 And Yhwh stirred up an adversary unto Solomon, Hadad the Edomite: he was of the king’s seed in Edom.
Suscitavit autem Dominus adversarium Salomoni Adad Idumaeum de semine regio, qui erat in Edom.
15 For it came to pass, when David was in Edom, and Joab the captain of the army was gone up to bury the slain, after he had smitten every male in Edom;
Cum enim esset David in Idumaea, et ascendisset Ioab princeps militiae ad sepeliendum eos, qui fuerant interfecti, et occidisset omnem masculinum in Idumaea
16 ( For six months did Joab remain there with all Israel, until he had cut off every male in Edom: )
(sex enim mensibus ibi moratus est Ioab, et omnis Israel, donec interimeret omne masculinum in Idumaea)
17 That Hadad fled, he and certain Edomites of his father’s servants with him, to go into Egypt; Hadad being yet a little child.
fugit Adad ipse, et viri Idumaei de servis patris eius cum eo, ut ingrederetur Aegyptum: erat autem Adad puer parvulus.
18 And they arose out of Midian, and came to Paran: and they took men with them out of Paran, and they came to Egypt, unto Pharaoh king of Egypt; which gave him an house, and appointed him victuals, and gave him land.
Cumque surrexissent de Madian, venerunt in Pharan, tuleruntque secum viros de Pharan, et introierunt Aegyptum ad Pharaonem regem Aegypti: qui dedit ei domum, et cibos constituit, et terram delegavit.
19 And Hadad found great favour in the sight of Pharaoh, so that he gave him to wife the sister of his own wife, the sister of Tahpenes the queen.
Et invenit Adad gratiam coram Pharaone valde, in tantum ut daret ei uxorem, sororem uxoris suae germanam Taphnes reginae.
20 And the sister of Tahpenes bare him Genubath his son, whom Tahpenes weaned in Pharaoh’s house: and Genubath was in Pharaoh’s household among the sons of Pharaoh.
Genuitque ei soror Taphnes Genubath filium, et nutrivit eum Taphnes in domo Pharaonis: eratque Genubath habitans apud Pharaonem cum filiis eius.
21 And 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 mine own country.
Cumque audisset Adad in Aegypto, dormisse David cum patribus suis, et mortuum esse Ioab principem militiae, dixit Pharaoni: Dimitte me, ut vadam in terram meam.
22 Then Pharaoh said unto him, But what hast thou lacked with me, that, behold, thou seekest to go to thine own country? And he answered, Nothing: howbeit let me go in any wise.
Dixitque ei Pharao: Qua enim re apud me indiges, ut quaeras ire ad terram tuam? At ille respondit: Nulla: sed obsecro te ut dimittas me.
23 And God stirred him up another adversary, Rezon the son of Eliadah, which fled from his lord Hadadezer king of Zobah:
Suscitavit quoque ei Deus adversarium Razon filium Eliada, qui fugerat Adarezer regem Soba dominum suum:
24 And he gathered men unto him, and became captain over a band, when David slew them of Zobah: and they went to Damascus, and dwelt therein, and reigned in Damascus.
et congregavit contra eum viros, et factus est princeps latronum cum interficeret eos David: abieruntque Damascum, et habitaverunt ibi, et constituerunt eum regem in Damasco,
25 And he was an adversary to Israel all the days of Solomon, beside the mischief that Hadad did: and he abhorred Israel, and reigned over Syria.
eratque adversarius Israeli cunctis diebus Salomonis: et hoc est malum Adad, et odium contra Israel, regnavitque in Syria.
26 And Jeroboam the son of Nebat, an Ephrathite of Zereda, Solomon’s servant, whose mother’s name was Zeruah, a widow woman, even he lifted up his hand against the king.
Ieroboam quoque filius Nabat, Ephrathaeus, de Sareda, servus Salomonis, cuius mater erat nomine Sarva, mulier vidua: levavit manum contra regem.
27 And this was the cause that he lifted up his hand against the king: Solomon built Millo, and repaired the breaches of the city of David his father.
Et haec est causa rebellionis adversus eum, quia Salomon aedificavit Mello, et coaequavit voraginem civitatis David patris sui.
28 And the man Jeroboam was a mighty man of valour: and Solomon seeing the young man that he was industrious, he made him ruler over all the charge of the house of Joseph.
Erat autem Ieroboam vir fortis et potens: vidensque Salomon adolescentem bonae indolis et industrium, constituerat eum praefectum super tributa universae domus Ioseph.
29 And it came to pass at that time when Jeroboam went out of Jerusalem, that the prophet Ahijah the Shilonite found him in the way; and he had clad himself with a new garment; and they two were alone in the field:
Factum est igitur in tempore illo, ut Ieroboam egrederetur de Ierusalem, et inveniret eum Ahias Silonites propheta in via, opertus pallio novo: erant autem duo tantum in agro.
30 And Ahijah caught the new garment that was on him, and rent it in twelve pieces:
Apprehendensque Ahias pallium suum novum, quo coopertus erat, scidit in duodecim partes.
31 And he said to Jeroboam, Take thee ten pieces: for thus saith Yhwh, the God of Israel, Behold, I will rend the kingdom out of the hand of Solomon, and will give ten tribes to thee:
Et ait ad Ieroboam: Tolle tibi decem scissuras: haec enim dicit Dominus Deus Israel: Ecce ego scindam regnum de manu Salomonis, et dabo tibi decem tribus.
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: )
Porro una tribus remanebit ei propter servum meum David, et Ierusalem civitatem, quam elegi ex omnibus tribubus Israel:
33 Because that they have forsaken me, and have worshipped Ashtoreth the goddess of the Sidonians, Chemosh the god of the Moabites, and Milcom the god of the children of Ammon, and have not walked in my ways, to do that which is right in mine eyes, and to keep my statutes and my judgments, as did David his father.
eo quod dereliquerit me, et adoraverit Astarthen deam Sidoniorum, et Chamos deum Moab, et Moloch deum filiorum Ammon: et non ambulaverit in viis meis, ut faceret iustitiam coram me, et praecepta mea, et iudicia sicut David pater eius.
34 Howbeit 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, because he kept my commandments and my statutes:
Nec auferam omne regnum de manu eius, sed ducem ponam eum cunctis diebus vitae suae, propter David servum meum, quem elegi, qui custodivit mandata mea et praecepta mea.
35 But I will take the kingdom out of his son’s hand, and will give it unto thee, even ten tribes.
Auferam autem regnum de manu filii eius, et dabo tibi decem tribus:
36 And unto his son will I give one tribe, that David my servant may have a light alway before me in Jerusalem, the city which I have chosen me to put my name there.
filio autem eius dabo tribum unam, ut remaneat lucerna David servo meo cunctis diebus coram me in Ierusalem civitate, quam elegi ut esset nomen meum ibi.
37 And I will take thee, and thou shalt reign according to all that thy soul desireth, and shalt be king over Israel.
Te autem assumam, et regnabis super omnia, quae desiderat anima tua, erisque rex super Israel.
38 And it shall be, if thou wilt hearken unto all that I command thee, and wilt walk in my ways, and do that is right in my sight, to keep my statutes and my commandments, as David my servant did; that I will be with thee, and build thee a sure house, as I built for David, and will give Israel unto thee.
Si igitur audieris omnia, quae praecepero tibi, et ambulaveris in viis meis, et feceris quod rectum est coram me, custodiens mandata mea et praecepta mea, sicut fecit David servus meus: ero tecum, et aedificabo tibi domum fidelem, quomodo aedificavi David domum, et tradam tibi Israel:
39 And I will for this afflict the seed of David, but not for ever.
et affligam semen David super hoc, verumtamen non cunctis diebus.
40 Solomon sought therefore to kill Jeroboam. And Jeroboam arose, and fled into Egypt, unto Shishak king of Egypt, and was in Egypt until the death of Solomon.
Voluit ergo Salomon interficere Ieroboam: qui surrexit, et aufugit in Aegyptum ad Sesac regem Aegypti, et fuit in Aegypto usque ad mortem Salomonis.
41 And the rest of the acts of Solomon, and all that he did, and his wisdom, are they not written in the book of the acts of Solomon?
Reliquum autem verborum Salomonis, et omnia quae fecit, et sapientia eius: ecce universa scripta sunt in Libro verborum dierum Salomonis.
42 And the time that Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel was forty years.
Dies autem, quos regnavit Salomon in Ierusalem super omnem Israel, quadraginta anni sunt.
43 And Solomon slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David his father: and Rehoboam his son reigned in his stead.
Dormivitque Salomon cum patribus suis, et sepultus est in Civitate David patris sui, regnavitque Roboam filius eius pro eo.
