1 Kings 11
1 But king Solomon loved many strange women, beside the daughter of Pharaoh, women of the Moabites, 'Ammonites, Edomites, Zidonians, and Hittites.
Kong Salomo elskede foruden Faraos Datter mange fremmede Kvinder, moabitiske, ammonitiske, edomitiske, zidoniske og hetitiske Kvinder,
2 From the nations concerning which the Lord had said unto the children of Israel, Ye shall not go in among them, nor shall they come in among you; surely they will turn away your heart after their gods: unto these Solomon did cleave to love them.
Kvinder fra de Folkeslag, HERREN havde sagt om til Israeliterne: »I maa ikke have med dem at gøre og de ikke med eder, ellers drager de eders Hjerte til deres Guder!« Ved dem hang Salomo i Kærlighed.
3 And he had seven hundred wives, princesses, and three hundred concubines: and his wives turned away his heart.
Han havde 700 fyrstelige Hustruer og 300 Medhustruer, og hans Hustruer drog hans Hjerte bort fra Herren.
4 And it came to pass, at the time that Solomon was old, that his wives turned away his heart after other gods; and his heart was not undivided with the Lord his God, like the heart of David his father.
Da Salomo blev gammel, drog hans Hustruer hans Hjerte til fremmede Guder, og hans Hjerte var ikke mere helt med HERREN hans Gud som hans Fader Davids.
5 And Solomon went after 'Ashtoreth the divinity of the Zidonians, and after Milcom the abomination of the 'Ammonites.
Salomo holdt sig da til Astarte, Zidoniernes Gudinde, og til Milkom, Ammoniternes væmmelige Gud.
6 And Solomon did what is evil in the eyes of the Lord, and went not fully after the Lord, like David his father.
Saaledes gjorde Salomo, hvad der var ondt i HERRENS Øjne, og viste ikke HERREN fuld Lydighed som hans Fader David.
7 Then did Solomon build a high-place for Kemosh, the abomination of Moab, on the mount that is before Jerusalem, and for Molech, the abomination of the children of 'Ammon.
Ved den Tid byggede Salomo en Offerhøj for Kemosj, Moabs væmmelige Gud, paa Bjerget østen for Jerusalem, og for Milkom, Ammoniternes væmmelige Gud;
8 And so did he for all his strange wives, who burnt incense and sacrificed unto their gods.
og samme Hensyn viste han alle sine fremmede Hustruer, som tændte Offerild for deres Guder og ofrede til dem.
9 And the Lord was angry with Solomon; because his heart was turned away from the Lord the God of Israel, who had appeared unto him twice;
Da vrededes HERREN paa Salomo, fordi han vendte sit Hjerte bort fra HERREN, Israels Gud, der dog to Gange havde ladet sig til Syne for ham
10 And had commanded him concerning this thing, that he should not go after other gods; but he did not keep that which the Lord had commanded.
og udtrykkelig havde paabudt ham ikke at holde sig til fremmede Guder; men han holdt ikke, hvad HERREN havde paabudt ham.
11 And the Lord said unto Solomon, Forasmuch as this is in thy mind, and thou hast not kept my covenant and my statutes, which I commanded concerning thee: I will surely rend the kingdom from thee, and will give it to thy servant.
Derfor sagde HERREN til Salomo: »Fordi det staar saaledes til med dig, og fordi du ikke har holdt min Pagt og mine Anordninger, som jeg paalagde dig, vil jeg visselig rive Riget fra dig og give din Træl det.
12 Nevertheless in thy days will I not do it, for the sake of David thy father; [but] out of the hand of thy son will I rend it.
Dog vil jeg ikke gøre det i din Levetid for din Fader Davids Skyld men jeg vil rive det ud af din Søns Haand.
13 Still all the kingdom will I not rend away: one tribe will I give to thy son on account of David my servant, and on account of Jerusalem which I have chosen.
Kun vil jeg ikke rive hele Riget fra ham, men give din Søn en Stamme deraf for min Tjener Davids Skyld og for Jerusalems Skyld, den By, jeg udvalgte.«
14 And the Lord stirred up an adversary unto Solomon, Hadad the Edomite: he was of the king's seed in Edom.
HERREN gav Salomo en Modstander i Edomiten Hadad af Kongeslægten i Edom.
15 It came to pass, namely, when David was in Edom, when Joab the captain of the army was gone up to bury the slain, after he had smitten every male in Edom;
Thi dengang David lod Edomiterne hugge ned, da Hærføreren Joab drog op for at jorde de faldne og hugge alle af Mandkøn ned i Edom —
16 (For six months did Joab remain there with all Israel, until he had cut off every male in Edom: )
Joab og hele Israel blev der i seks Maaneder, til han havde udryddet alle af Mandkøn i Edom —
17 That Hadad fled, he and certain Edomites of his father's servants with him, to go into Egypt; but Hadad was then yet a young lad.
da var Adad med nogle edomitiske Mænd af hans Faders Folk flygtet ad Ægypten til. Dengang var Hadad endnu en lille Dreng.
18 And they arose from Midian, and came to Paran; and they took [some] men with them from Paran, and came to Egypt, unto Pharaoh the king of Egypt; who gave him a house, and decreed him a support, and gave him land.
De brød op fra Midjan og naaede Paran; og efter at have taget nogle Mænd fra Paran med sig drog de til Ægypten, hvor Farao, Ægypterkongen, overlod ham et Hus, tilsagde ham daglig Føde og gav ham Land.
19 And Hadad found great favor in the eyes of Pharaoh, so that he gave him for wife the sister of his own wife, the sister of Thachpeness the queen.
Og da Farao fattede særlig Godhed for Hadad, gav han ham sin Svigerinde, en Søster til Dronning Takpenes, til Ægte.
20 And the sister of Thachpeness bore him Genubath his son, whom Thachpeness brought up in Pharaoh's house; and Genubath remained in Pharaoh's house among the sons of Pharaoh.
Takpenes's Søster fødte ham Sønnen Genubat; og da Takpenes havde vænnet Barnet fra i Faraos Hus, blev Genubat i Faraos Hus blandt Faraos egne Børn.
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, Dismiss me, that I may go to my own country.
Da nu Hadad i Ægypten hørte, at David havde lagt sig til Hvile hos sine Fædre, og at Hærføreren Joab var død, sagde han til Farao: »Lad mig drage til mit Land!«
22 Then said Pharaoh unto him, But what dost thou lack with me, that, behold, thou seekest to go to thy own country? And he answered, Nothing: nevertheless thou must let me go away.
Farao sagde til ham: »Hvad savner du her hos mig, siden du ønsker at drage til dit Land?« Men han svarede: »Aa jo, lad mig nu rejse!« Saa vendte Hadad tilbage til sit Land. Det var den Ulykke, Hadad voldte: Han bragte Trængsel over Israel og blev Konge over Edom.
23 And God stirred him up [another] adversary, Rezon the son of Elyada', who had fled from Hadad'ezer the king of Zobah his lord;
Fremdeles gav Gud ham en Modstander i Rezon, Eljadas Søn, der var flygtet fra sin Herre, Kong Hadad'ezer af Zoba.
24 And he gathered around him some men, and became captain over a band, when David slew those [of Zobah]; and they went to Damascus, and dwelt therein, and reigned in Damascus.
Han samlede en Del Mænd om sig og blev Høvding for en Friskare. Han indtog Damaskus, satte sig fast der og blev Konge i Damaskus.
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.
Han var Israels Modstander, saa længe Salomo levede.
26 Also Jerobo'am the son of Nebat, an Ephrathite of Zeredah, the name of whose mother was Zeru'ah, a widow woman, was a servant of Solomon, and he lifted up his hand against the king.
Endvidere var der Efraimiten Jeroboam, Nebats Søn, fra Zereda, som stod i Salomos Tjeneste, og hvis Moder hed Zerua og var Enke; han løftede Haand mod Kongen.
27 And this was the occasion that he lifted up his hand against the king: Solomon built up the Millo, and closed up the breach of the city of David his father.
Hermed gik det saaledes til Salomo byggede paa Millo; han lukkede Hullet i sin Fader Davids By.
28 And the man Jerobo'am was a mighty man of valor: and Solomon seeing the young man that he was [also] an industrious worker, he appointed him over all the charge of the house of Joseph.
Nu var Jeroboam et dygtigt Menneske, og da Salomo saa, hvorledes den unge Mand udførte Arbejdet, gav han ham Opsyn med hele Arbejdsstyrken af Josefs Hus.
29 And it came to pass at that time when Jerobo'am went out of Jerusalem, that the prophet Achiyah the Shilonite found him on the way; and he had clad himself with a new garment; and these two were alone by themselves in the field;
Paa den Tid hændte det sig, engang Jeroboam var rejst fra Jerusalem, at Profeten Ahija fra Silo traf ham paa Vejen. Ahija var iført en ny Kappe, og de to var ene paa Marken.
30 And Achiyah caught hold of the new garment that was on him, and rent it in twelve pieces;
Da greb Ahija fat i den ny Kappe, han havde paa, rev den i tolv Stykker
31 And he said to Jerobo'am, Take thee ten pieces; for thus hath said the Lord, the God of Israel, Behold, I will rend the kingdom out of the hand of Solomon, and I will give to thee the ten tribes;
og sagde til Jeroboam: »Tag dig de ti Stykker, thi saa siger HERREN, Israels Gud: Se, jeg river Riget ud af Salomos Haand og giver dig de ti Stammer.
32 But the one tribe shall remain for him, on account of my servant David, and on account of Jerusalem, the city which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel;
Den ene Stamme skal han beholde for min Tjener Davids Skyld og for Jerusalems Skyld, den By, jeg udvalgte af alle Israels Stammer;
33 For the cause that they have forsaken me, and have bowed down to 'Ashtoreth the divinity of the Zidonians, to Kemosh the god of Moab, and to Milcom the god of the children of 'Ammon, and have not walked in my ways, to do what is right in my eyes, and my statutes and my ordinances, like David his father.
det vil jeg gøre, fordi han har forladt mig og tilbedt Astarte, Zidoniernes Gudinde, Kemosj, Moabs Gud, og Milkom, Ammoniternes Gud, og ikke vandret paa mine Veje og gjort, hvad der er ret i mine Øjne, eller holdt mine Anordninger og Lovbud som hans Fader David.
34 Nevertheless will I not take the whole kingdom out of his hand; but I will let him remain prince all the days of his life for the sake of David my servant, whom I chose, who kept my commandments and my statutes;
Fra ham vil jeg dog ikke tage Riget, men lade ham være Fyrste, saa længe han lever, for min Tjener Davids Skyld, som jeg udvalgte, og som holdt mine Bud og Anordninger.
35 But I will take the kingdom out of the hand of his son, and I will give it unto thee, even the ten tribes.
Men jeg vil tage Riget fra hans Søn og give dig det, de ti Stammer;
36 And unto his son will I give one tribe; so that there may remain a government for David my servant at all times before me in Jerusalem, the city which I have chosen for me, to put my name there.
og hans Søn vil jeg give en Stamme, for at min Tjener David altid kan have en Lampe for mit Aasyn i Jerusalem, den By, jeg udvalgte for der at stedfæste mit Navn.
37 But thee will I take, and thou shalt reign over all that thy soul may long for; and thou shalt be king over Israel.
Men dig vil jeg tage og sætte til Hersker over alt, hvad du attraar, og du skal være Konge over Israel.
38 And it shall be, if thou wilt hearken unto all that I shall command thee, and wilt walk in my ways, and do what is right in my eyes, to keep my statutes and my commandments, as David my servant did: that I will be with thee, and build thee a permanent house, as I have built for David, and I will give Israel unto thee.
Dersom du da er lydig i alt hvad jeg byder dig, vandrer paa mine Veje og gør, hvad der er ret i mine Øjne, saa du holder mine Anordninger og Bud, som min Tjener David gjorde, vil jeg være med dig og bygge dig et varigt Hus, som jeg gjorde det for David. Dig giver jeg Israel;
39 And I will afflict the seed of David for this; but not for all times.
men jeg ydmyger Davids Slægt for den Sags Skyld, dog ikke for stedse!«
40 Solomon thereupon sought to put Jerobo'am to death; but Jerobo'am arose, and fled into Egypt, unto Shishak the king of Egypt, and remained in Egypt until the death of Solomon.
Da nu Salomo stod Jeroboam efter Livet, flygtede han til Ægypten, til Ægypterkongen Sjisjak; og han blev i Ægypten, til Salomo døde.
41 And the rest of the acts of Solomon, and all that he did and his wisdom, behold, they are written in the book of the history of Solomon.
Hvad der ellers er at fortælle om Salomo, alt, hvad han gjorde, og hans Visdom, staar jo optegnet i Salomos Krønike.
42 And the days that Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel were forty years.
Den Tid, Salomo herskede i Jerusalem over hele Israel, udgjorde fyrretyve Aar.
43 And Solomon slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David his father; and Rehobo'am his son became king in his stead.
Saa lagde Salomo sig til Hvile hos sine Fædre og blev jordet i sin Fader Davids By. Og hans Søn Rehabeam blev Konge i hans Sted.
