1 Kings 11
1 And King Solomon has loved many strange women, and the daughter of Pharaoh, females of Moab, Ammon, Edom, Sidon, [and] of the Hittites,
Ma eze Solomọn hụrụ ọtụtụ ndị inyom mba ọzọ nʼanya, tinyere nwa nwanyị Fero, ha bụ ndị inyom ndị Moab, ndị Amọn, ndị Edọm, ndị Saịdọn na ndị Het.
2 of the nations of which YHWH said to the sons of Israel, “You do not go in to them, and they do not go in to you; surely they turn aside your heart after their gods”; Solomon has cleaved to them for love.
Ha bụ ndị sitere na mba ndị ahụ Onyenwe anyị gwara Izrel sị, “Unu na ha agaghị alụrịtakwa di na nwunye, nʼihi na ha aghaghị ime ka obi unu gbasoo chi niile ha.” Ma, nʼagbanyeghị nke a, Solomọn rapara ha nʼahụ nʼihi ịhụnanya.
3 And he has seven hundred wives, princesses, and three hundred concubines; and his wives turn aside his heart.
Ọnụọgụgụ ndị inyom Solomọn lụrụ dị narị asaa, bụ ndị amụrụ nʼobi ndị eze. O nwekwara ndị iko nwanyị, ọnụọgụgụ ha dị narị atọ. Ndị inyom ya duhiere obi ya.
4 And it comes to pass, at the time of Solomon’s old age, his wives have turned aside his heart after other gods, and his heart has not been perfect with his God YHWH, like the heart of his father David.
Mgbe Solomọn ghọrọ agadi, ndị inyom ndị a duhiere obi ya mee ka ọ gbasoo chi ndị ọzọ, nke mere na o jikwaghị obi ya niile gbasoo Onyenwe anyị Chineke ya, dịka Devid bụ nna ya mere.
5 And Solomon goes after Ashtoreth goddess of the Zidonians, and after Milcom the abomination of the Ammonites;
Ọ gbasoro Ashtọret, bụ chi ndị Saịdọn na Molek, bụ chi rụrụ arụ nke ndị Amọn.
6 and Solomon does evil in the eyes of YHWH, and has not been fully after YHWH, like his father David.
Nʼụzọ dị otu a, Solomọn mere ihe ọjọọ nʼanya Onyenwe anyị. O soghị ụzọ Onyenwe anyị dịka nna ya Devid si mee nʼụbọchị niile nke ndụ ya.
7 Then Solomon builds a high place for Chemosh the abomination of Moab, in the hill that [is] on the front of Jerusalem, and for Molech the abomination of the sons of Ammon;
Nʼelu ugwu dị nʼọwụwa anyanwụ Jerusalem, Solomọn wuru ebe dị elu nye Kemosh, chi rụrụ arụ nke ndị Moab, wuokwara Molek chi rụrụ arụ nke ndị Amọn.
8 and so he has done for all his strange women, who are perfuming and sacrificing to their gods.
O mekwara otu ihe ahụ nye ndị nwunye ya niile si mba ọzọ, bụ ndị na-achụ aja nsure ọkụ ihe na-esi isi ụtọ, na-achụkwa aja nsure ọkụ dị iche iche nye chi niile ha.
9 And YHWH shows Himself angry with Solomon, for his heart has turned aside from YHWH, God of Israel, who had appeared to him twice,
Onyenwe anyị were iwe dị ukwuu megide Solomọn, nʼihi na obi ya esitela nʼebe Onyenwe anyị Chineke Izrel nọ pụọ, bụ onye mere ka ọ hụ ya anya ugboro abụọ.
10 and given a charge to him concerning this thing, not to go after other gods; and he has not kept that which YHWH commanded,
Ọ bụ ezie na o nyere Solomọn iwu ka ọ ghara ịgbaso chi ndị ọzọ, ma Solomọn erubeghị isi nʼiwu a Onyenwe anyị nyere.
11 and YHWH says to Solomon, “Because that this has been with you, and you have not kept My covenant and My statutes that I charged on you, I surely tear the kingdom from you, and have given it to your servant.
Ya mere, Onyenwe anyị gwara Solomọn okwu sị, “Ebe ọ bụ na i mere ihe dị otu a, jụ idebe ọgbụgba ndụ m na ụkpụrụ m, nke m nyere gị idebe, aghaghị m isite nʼaka gị dọkapụ alaeze a, were ya nye otu nʼime ndị na-ejere gị ozi.
12 Only, I do not do it in your days, for the sake of your father David; I tear it out of the hand of your son;
Ma nʼihi nna gị Devid agaghị m eme ihe ndị a mgbe ị dị ndụ. Aga m anapụ nwa gị nwoke alaeze Izrel.
13 only, I do not tear away all of the kingdom; I give one tribe to your son, for the sake of My servant David, and for the sake of Jerusalem that I have chosen.”
Ma agaghị m anapụcha ya alaeze Izrel niile, kama aga m eme ka ọ bụrụ eze otu ebo Izrel, nʼihi Devid, na nʼihi Jerusalem, obodo m họpụtara nye onwe m.”
14 And YHWH raises up an adversary against Solomon, Hadad the Edomite; he [is] of the seed of the king in Edom;
Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị mere ka onye iro bilie megide Solomọn. Onye a bụ Hadad onye Edọm, onye sikwa nʼezinaụlọ ndị eze Edọm.
15 and it comes to pass, in David’s being with Edom, in the going up of Joab head of the host to bury the slain, that he strikes every male in Edom—
Nʼoge gara aga, mgbe Devid na-ebuso ndị Edọm agha, Joab, onyeisi ndị agha, onye gara ili ndị agha e gburu egbu, tigburu ndị ikom niile nọ nʼEdọm.
16 for six months Joab abided there, and all Israel, until the cutting off of every male in Edom—
Joab na ndị agha Izrel niile nọgidere nʼebe ahụ ọnwa isii, tutu ruo mgbe ha gbuchapụrụ ndị ikom niile nọ nʼEdọm.
17 and Hadad flees, he and certain Edomites, of the servants of his father, with him, to go to Egypt, and Hadad [is] a little youth,
Ma Hadad, onye bụ nwantakịrị nʼoge ahụ, gbapụrụ ọsọ gbaga Ijipt, ya na ụfọdụ ndịisi ọchịchị Edọm, ndị jeere nna ya ozi.
18 and they rise out of Midian, and come into Paran, and take men with them out of Paran, and come into Egypt, to Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he gives a house to him, and has commanded bread for him, and has given land to him.
Ha sitere nʼala Midia gaa Paran. Site na Paran, ha duuru ụfọdụ ndị mmadụ, ndị sooro ha gaa Ijipt, jekwuru Fero eze Ijipt, onye nyere Hadad ụlọ obibi na ala, nyekwa ya ihe oriri.
19 And Hadad finds grace in the eyes of Pharaoh exceedingly, and he gives to him a wife, the sister of his own wife, sister of Tahpenes the mistress;
Hadad hụtara amara nʼihu Fero, nke mere na ọ kpọnyere ya nwanne nwanyị Tapenes bụ nwunye eze ka ọ bụrụ nwunye ya.
20 and the sister of Tahpenes bears to him his son Genubath, and Tahpenes weans him within the house of Pharaoh, and Genubath is in the house of Pharaoh in the midst of the sons of Pharaoh.
Nwanne Tapenes mụtara ya nwa nwoke aha ya bụ Genubat, onye Tapenes zụlitere nʼụlọeze. Genubat biri nʼetiti ụmụ Fero.
21 And Hadad has heard in Egypt that David has lain with his fathers, and that Joab head of the host is dead, and Hadad says to Pharaoh, “Send me away, and I go to my land.”
Mgbe Hadad nọ nʼIjipt, ọ nụrụ na Devid sooro ndị nna nna ya ha dina nʼọnwụ na Joab ọchịagha ndị agha anwụọkwala, ọ rịọrọ Fero arịrịọ ka o kwenye ka ọ laghachi nʼEdọm.
22 And Pharaoh says to him, “But what are you lacking with me, that behold, you are seeking to go to your own land?” And he says, “Nothing, but you certainly send me away.”
Fero jụrụ ya ajụjụ sị ya, “Gịnị mere i ji chọọ ịla? O nwere ihe ị chọrọ nke ị na-adịghị enweta nʼebe a?” Hadad zara sị ya, “O nweghị ihe kọrọ m, kama kwere ka m laghachi.”
23 And God raises an adversary against him, Rezon son of Eliadah, who has fled from Hadadezer king of Zobah, his lord,
Nwoke ọzọ Chineke mere ka ọ bụrụ onye iro Solomọn bụ Rezon nwa Eliada, onye gbapụrụ site nʼaka nna ya ukwu bụ Hadadeza, eze Zoba.
24 and gathers men to himself, and is head of a troop in David’s slaying them, and they go to Damascus, and dwell in it, and reign in Damascus;
Devid lara ndị agha Zoba nʼiyi, Rezon chịkọtara ndị ikom gbara ya gburugburu, ghọọ onyendu ha, ndị nnupu isi a gara Damaskọs biri nʼebe ahụ, na-achịkwa nʼebe ahụ.
25 and he is an adversary against Israel all the days of Solomon (besides the evil that Hadad [did]), and he cuts off in Israel, and reigns over Aram.
Ogologo ụbọchị niile nke ndụ Solomọn, Rezon bụ onye iro Izrel, tinyekwara nsogbu nke Hadad wetaara Izrel. Rezon bụ eze ndị Aram, bụrụkwa onye na-emegide Izrel.
26 And Jeroboam son of Nebat, an Ephraimite of Zereda—the name of whose mother [is] Zeruah, a widow woman—servant to Solomon, he also lifts up a hand against the king;
Jeroboam nwa Nebat, onye Ifrem nke Zereda, otu nʼime ndị ozi Solomọn, biliri megide eze. Nne ya bụ Zerua, nwanyị di ya nwụrụ anwụ.
27 and this [is] the thing [for] which he lifted up a hand against the king: Solomon built Millo—he shut up the breach of the city of his father David,
Nke a bụ akụkọ banyere otu o siri bilie imegide eze: Solomọn wugharịrị Milo, wuziekwa ntipu dị na mgbidi obodo Devid bụ nna ya.
28 and the man Jeroboam [is] mighty in valor, and Solomon sees that the young man is doing business, and appoints him over all the burden of the house of Joseph.
Ugbu a Jeroboam, nʼonwe ya, bụ dimkpa. Mgbe Solomọn hụrụ otu nwokorobịa a si arụzi ọrụ ya nke ọma, o mere ya onye nlekọta ndị ọrụ niile si nʼezinaụlọ Josef.
29 And it comes to pass, at that time, that Jeroboam has gone out from Jerusalem, and Ahijah the Shilonite, the prophet, finds him in the way, and he is covering himself with a new garment; and both of them [are] by themselves in a field,
Ma otu ụbọchị, mgbe Jeroboam si Jerusalem na-apụ, o zutere Ahija onye amụma, onye Shilo, nʼụzọ, ebe o yi uwe ọhụrụ. Ọ bụkwa naanị ha abụọ nọ nʼọhịa mgbe ahụ.
30 and Ahijah lays hold on the new garment that [is] on him, and tears it [into] twelve pieces,
Mgbe ahụ, Ahija yipụrụ uwe ọhụrụ nke o yi nʼahụ dọwasịa ya ụzọ iri na abụọ.
31 and says to Jeroboam, “Take ten pieces for yourself, for thus said YHWH, God of Israel: Behold, I am tearing the kingdom out of the hand of Solomon, and have given the ten tribes to you,
Mgbe ahụ, ọ gwara Jeroboam sị, “Chịrị iberibe iri nye onwe gị, nʼihi na otu a ka Onyenwe anyị, Chineke Izrel sịrị, ‘Lee, aga m anapụ Solomọn alaeze a, ma aga m enyekwa gị ebo iri nʼime ha.
32 but he has the one tribe for My servant David’s sake, and for Jerusalem’s sake, the city which I have fixed on, out of all the tribes of Israel,
Ma aga m ahapụrụ ya otu ebo, nʼihi ohu m Devid na nʼihi Jerusalem obodo m họpụtara site nʼebo niile nke Izrel.
33 because they have forsaken Me, and bow themselves to Ashtoreth, goddess of the Zidonians, to Chemosh god of Moab, and to Milcom god of the sons of Ammon, and have not walked in My ways, to do that which [is] right in My eyes, and My statutes and My judgments, like his father David.
Nʼihi na ha ahapụla m malite ịkpọ isiala nye Ashtọret, chi nwanyị ndị Saịdọn; na nyekwa Kemosh, chi ndị Moab; na nye Molek, chi ụmụ Amọn. Ha agbasoghị ụzọ m, ha emekwaghị ihe ndị ahụ m gụrụ dịka ezi ihe. Ha edebeghị iwu m na ụkpụrụ m niile dịka Devid nna Solomọn mere.
34 And I do not take the whole of the kingdom out of his hand, for I make him prince all [the] days of his life, for the sake of My servant David whom I chose, who kept My commands and My statutes;
“‘Ma agaghị m anapụ alaeze ya ugbu a, nʼihi ohu m Devid, onye m họpụtara, na onye mere ihe tọrọ m ụtọ. Aga m ahapụ Solomọn ka ọ nọgide dịka eze ụbọchị ndụ ya niile.
35 and I have taken the kingdom out of the hand of his son, and given it to you—the ten tribes;
Ma aga m anapụ alaeze ya site nʼaka nwa ya, nye gị ebo iri.
36 and to his son I give one tribe, for there being a lamp before Me for My servant David in Jerusalem [for] all the days, the city that I have chosen for Myself to put My Name there.
Nwa ya ka m ga-enye otu ebo, nʼihi na achọrọ m ka Devid ohu m nọgide ịbụ eze Jerusalem, obodo m họpụtara nye onwe m, ebe m mere ka Aha m dịrị.
37 And I take you, and you have reigned over all that your soul desires, and you have been king over Israel;
Ma otu ọ dị, gị ka m ga-ewere. Ị ga-abụkwa onye ga-achị ebe ahụ niile obi gị chọrọ; i ga-abụ eze Izrel.
38 and it has been, if you hear all that I command you, and have walked in My ways, and done that which is right in My eyes, to keep My statutes and My commands, as My servant David did, that I have been with you, and have built a steadfast house for you, as I built for David, and have given Israel to you,
Ọ bụrụ na i gee ntị mee ihe niile m ga-enye gị nʼiwu, jekwa ije nʼirubere m isi, mee ihe ziri ezi nʼanya m, site nʼidebe ụkpụrụ niile na iwu niile, dịka ohu m Devid mere, aga m anọnyere gị. Aga m ewuru gị ụlọ ga-adịgide dịka m siri wuoro Devid. Aga m enyekwa gị Izrel.
39 and I humble the seed of David for this; only, not [for] all the days.”
Aga m eweda agbụrụ Devid nʼihi ihe a, ma ha agaghị abụ ndị e wedara nʼala ruo ebighị ebi.’”
40 And Solomon seeks to put Jeroboam to death, and Jeroboam rises and flees to Egypt, to Shishak king of Egypt, and he is in Egypt until the death of Solomon.
Solomọn gbalịrị igbu Jeroboam, ma Jeroboam gbaara ọsọ gbakwuru eze Shishak nke Ijipt. Ọ nọkwara nʼIjipt ruo mgbe Solomọn nwụrụ.
41 And the rest of the matters of Solomon, and all that he did, and his wisdom, are they not written on the scroll of the matters of Solomon?
Ma banyere ihe ndị ọzọ mere nʼoge ọchịchị Solomọn, nke bụ, ihe niile o mere na amamihe o gosipụtara, ọ bụ na-edeghị ha nʼakwụkwọ akụkọ nke Solomọn?
42 And the days that Solomon has reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel [are] forty years,
Solomọn chịrị Izrel niile iri afọ anọ na Jerusalem.
43 and Solomon lies with his fathers, and is buried in the city of his father David, and his son Rehoboam reigns in his stead.
O sooro nna nna ya ha dina nʼọnwụ, e lie ya nʼobodo Devid bụ nna ya. Rehoboam nwa ya, ghọkwara eze nʼọnọdụ nna ya.
