< 1 Kings 11 >

1 But, King Solomon, loved many foreign women, together with the daughter of Pharaoh, —women of the Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, Zidonians, Hittites:
Ka naʻe ʻofa ʻa Solomone ki he kau fefine tokolahi ʻoe kakai kehe, fakataha mo e ʻofefine ʻo Felo, ko e kau fefine mei Moape, mo ʻAmoni, mo ʻItomi, mo Saitoni, pea mo Heti;
2 out of the nations concerning whom Yahweh had said unto the sons of Israel—Ye shall not go in unto them, and, they, shall not come in unto you, surely they will turn aside your heart after their gods. Unto these, did Solomon cleave in love.
Ko e ngaahi puleʻanga naʻe pehē ai ʻe Sihova ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻE ʻikai te mou hū atu kiate kinautolu, pea ʻe ʻikai te nau hū mai kiate kimoutolu: he ko e moʻoni te nau liliu homou loto ke muimui ki honau ngaahi ʻotua: naʻe pikitai ʻa Solomone kiate kinautolu ni ʻi he mamana ki ai.
3 So it came to pass that he had seven hundred wives who were princesses, and three hundred concubines, —and, his wives, turned aside, his heart.
Pea naʻa ne maʻu ʻae uaifi ʻe fitungeau naʻe ʻeiki lahi, pea mo e sinifu ʻe toko tolungeau: pea naʻe fakatafoki hono loto ʻe hono ngaahi uaifi.
4 Yea it came to pass, in the old age of Solomon, that, his wives, turned aside his heart after other gods, —his heart therefore was not sound with Yahweh his God, as was the heart of David his father.
He naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene fakaʻaʻau ʻo motuʻa ʻa Solomone, naʻe fakatafoki ʻa hono loto ʻe hono ngaahi uaifi ke muimui ki he ngaahi ʻotua kehe: pea naʻe ʻikai haohaoa hono loto ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ko hono ʻOtua, ʻo hangē ko e loto ʻo Tevita ko ʻene tamai.
5 And Solomon went after Ashtoreth, goddess of the Zidonians, and after Milcom, the abomination of the Ammonites.
He naʻe muimui ʻa Solomone ki he ʻotua fefine ʻoe kakai Saitoni ko ʻAsitelote, pea kia Milikomi ko e meʻa fakalielia ʻae kakai ʻAmoni.
6 Thus Solomon did the thing that was wicked in the eyes of Yahweh, —and went not fully after Yahweh, as did David his father.
Pea naʻe fai kovi ʻa Solomone ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, pea naʻe ʻikai muimui haohaoa ia kia Sihova, ʻo hangē ko Tevita ko ʻene tamai.
7 Then, did Solomon build a high place for Chemosh, the abomination of Moab, in the hill that is before Jerusalem, —and for Molech, the abomination of the sons of Ammon;
Pea naʻe langa ai ʻe Solomone ha potu māʻolunga kia Kimosi, ko e meʻa fakalielia ʻa Moape, ʻi he moʻunga ʻoku hanga ki Selūsalema, pea maʻa Moleki, ko e meʻa fakalielia ʻi he fānau ʻa ʻAmoni.
8 and, thus, did he for all his foreign wives, —who burned incense and offered sacrifices unto their gods.
Pea naʻa ne fai pehē foki maʻa hono ngaahi uaifi mei he kakai kehe, ʻaia naʻe tutu meʻa namu kakala mo fai feilaulau ki honau ngaahi ʻotua.
9 Therefore did Yahweh shew himself angry with Solomon, —because his heart had turned aside from Yahweh God of Israel, who had appeared unto him twice;
Pea naʻe houhau ʻa Sihova kia Solomone, koeʻuhi naʻe fakatafoki ʻa hono loto meia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻaia naʻe ha tuʻo ua mai kiate ia,
10 and had been giving command to him concerning this thing, that he should not go away after other gods, —but he had not taken heed unto that which Yahweh had commanded.
Mo ne tuku ʻae fekau kiate ia koeʻuhi ko e meʻa ni, ke ʻoua naʻa ne muimui ki he ngaahi ʻotua kehe: ka naʻe ʻikai fai ʻe ia ki he meʻa naʻe fekau ʻe Sihova.
11 Wherefore Yahweh said unto Solomon—Forasmuch as this hath come to pass with thee, and thou hast not heeded my covenant and my statutes, which I charged upon thee, I will, rend, the kingdom away from thee, and will give it unto a servant of thine.
Ko ia naʻe pehē ai ʻe Sihova kia Solomone, “Koeʻuhi kuo ke fai eni ʻe koe, pea kuo ʻikai te ke fai ki heʻeku fuakava mo ʻeku ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni ʻaia kuo u fekau kiate koe, ko e moʻoni te u hae ʻae puleʻanga meiate koe, pea te u foaki ia ki hoʻo tamaioʻeiki.
12 Notwithstanding, in thine own days, will I not do it, for the sake of David thy father, —out of the hand of thy son, will I rend it.
Ka koeʻuhi ko hoʻo tamai ko Tevita ʻe ʻikai te u fai ia ʻi ho ngaahi ʻaho ʻoʻou: ka te u hae atu ia mei he nima ʻo ho foha.
13 Howbeit, all the kingdom, will I not rend away, one tribe, will I give unto thy son, —for the sake of David my servant, and for the sake of Jerusalem, which I have chosen.
Ka ʻe ʻikai foki te u hae atu ʻae puleʻanga kātoa; ka te u foaki ʻae faʻahinga ʻe taha ki ho foha, koeʻuhi ko Tevita ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki, pea koeʻuhi ko Selūsalema ʻaia kuo u fili.”
14 And Yahweh raised up an adversary against Solomon, Hadad the Edomite, —of the seed of the king, was he, in Edom.
Pea naʻe ueʻi hake ʻe Sihova ha fili kia Solomone, ko Hatati ko e tangata ʻItomi: naʻa ne ʻoe hako ʻoe tuʻi ʻi ʻItomi.
15 And it came to pass, when David was dealing with Edom, and Joab general of the army went up to bury the slain, —and had smitten every male in Edom, —
He naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene ʻi ʻItomi ʻa Tevita, pea kuo ʻalu hake ʻa Soape ko e ʻeiki pule ki he kau tau ke tanu kinautolu naʻe tāmate, hili ʻa ʻene teʻia ʻae kakai tangata kotoa pē ʻi ʻItomi;
16 for, six months, did Joab remain there, with all Israel, —until he had cut off every male in Edom,
(Naʻe nofo ʻi ai ʻa Soape mo ʻIsileli kātoa ʻi he māhina ʻe ono, kaeʻoua ke fakaʻauha ʻe ia ʻae kau tangata kotoa pē ʻi ʻItomi: )
17 that Hadad fled, he and certain men of Edom of the servants of his father, with him, to go into Egypt, —Hadad being a little boy.
Pea naʻe hola ʻa Hatati, ko ia mo e niʻihi ʻoe kau ʻItomi ko e kau tamaioʻeiki ʻo ʻene tamai, ke [nau ]ʻalu ki ʻIsipite; he naʻe kei tamasiʻi siʻi pe ʻa Hatati.
18 So they arose out of Midian, and came into Paran, —and took certain men with them out of Paran, and came into Egypt, unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, who gave him a house, and, food, appointed him, and, land, did give unto him.
Pea naʻa nau tuʻu hake mei Mitiane, ʻo hoko mai ki Palani: pea naʻa nau ʻave ʻae kau tangata mo kinautolu mei Palani, pea naʻa nau haʻu ki ʻIsipite, kia Felo ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsipite; ʻaia naʻa ne ʻange moʻona ha fale, mo ne tuku kiate ia haʻane meʻakai, ʻo ne foaki kiate ia ha konga fonua.
19 And Hadad found great favour in the eyes of Pharaoh, —so that he gave him to wife, the sister of his own wife, the sister of Tahpenes the queen.
Pea naʻe ʻofeina lahi ʻa Hatati ʻi he ʻao ʻo Felo, ko ia naʻa ne foaki ai kiate ia ʻae tokoua ʻo hono uaifi ʻoʻona ke na mali, ʻio, ʻae tokoua ʻo Tapanise ko e tuʻi fefine.
20 And the sister of Tahpenes bare to him Genubath his son, and Tahpenes weaned him, in the house of Pharaoh, —and so it came about, that Genubath was of the household of Pharaoh, among the sons of Pharaoh.
Pea naʻe fanau kiate ia ʻe he tokoua ʻo Tapanise ʻa hono foha ko Kinupate, ʻaia naʻe fakamavae ʻe Tapanise ʻi he fale ʻo Felo: pea naʻe nofo ʻa Kinupate ʻi he ʻapi ʻo Felo fakataha mo e ngaahi foha ʻo Felo.
21 And, when, Hadad, heard in Egypt, that David slept with his fathers, and that Joab general of the army was dead, Hadad said unto Pharaoh, Let me go, that I may take my journey unto mine own land.
Pea ʻi he fanongo ʻe Hatati ʻi ʻIsipite kuo mohe ʻa Tevita mo ʻene ngaahi tamai, pea kuo pekia ʻa Soape ʻae ʻeiki pule ʻoe kautau, naʻe pehē ʻe Hatati kia Felo, “Tuku au ke u ʻalu, koeʻuhi ke u ʻalu ki hoku fonua ʻoʻoku.”
22 Then said Pharaoh unto him—But what hast thou been lacking with me, that lo! thou art seeking to take thy journey unto thine own land? And he said—Nothing, howbeit, let me go.
Pea naʻe toki pehē kiate ia ʻe Felo, “Kae vakai, kuo ke masiva ʻi he hā ʻiate au, ke pehē ai hoʻo fie ʻalu ki ho fonua ʻoʻou?” Pea naʻa ne pehēange, “ʻOku ʻikai, kae kehe pe ke tuku au ke u ʻalu.”
23 And God raised up against him an adversary, Rezon son of Eliada, —who had fled from Hadadezer king of Zobah, his lord;
Pea naʻe ueʻi hake ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae fili ʻe tokotaha, ko Lisoni ko e foha ʻo Iliate, ʻaia naʻe hola mei heʻene ʻeiki ko Hetatesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Sopa:
24 and he gathered unto him men, and became captain of a band when David slew them [of Zobah], —then went they to Damascus, and dwelt therein, and reigned in Damascus.
Pea naʻa ne tānaki mai ʻae kau tangata kiate ia, pea ne hoko ko e ʻeiki ʻo ha kongakau, ʻi he kuonga naʻe teʻia ai ʻe Tevita kinautolu: pea naʻa nau ʻalu ki Tamasikusi, ʻo nofo ai, ʻo[ne ]pule ʻi Tamasikusi.
25 Thus became he an adversary unto Israel, all the days of Solomon, this, is the mischief which Hadad did, —so then, he abhorred Israel, when he reigned over Syria.
Pea ko e fili ia ki ʻIsileli lolotonga ʻae ʻaho kotoa pē ʻo Solomone, ka ʻoku lau kehe ʻae kovi naʻe hoko meia Hatati: pea naʻa ne fakaliliʻa ki ʻIsileli, mo ne pule ki Silia.
26 Jeroboam also, son of Nebat, an Ephrathite from Zeredah, whose, mother’s name, was Zeruah, a widow woman, he being servant to Solomon, lifted up a hand against the king.
Pea ko Selopoami ko e foha ʻo Nipati, ko e tangata ʻEfalata mei Sileta, ko e tamaioʻeiki ʻa Solomone, ko e hingoa ʻo ʻene faʻē ko Silua, ko e fefine kuo pekia hono husepāniti, ʻio, naʻa mo ia naʻa ne hiki angatuʻu ʻa hono nima ki he tuʻi.
27 And, this, was the cause that he lifted up a hand against the king, —Solomon, built Millo, he closed up of the of David his father. the breach city
Pea ko hono ʻuhinga eni ʻo ʻene hiki ʻa hono nima ke angatuʻu ki he tuʻi: naʻe langa ʻe Solomone ʻa Milo, pea naʻa ne toe langa ʻae ngaahi potu naʻe maumau ʻi he Kolo ʻo Tevita ko ʻene tamai.
28 Now, the man Jeroboam, being an able Solomon observed his servant, that he man, was, one to execute a work, so he gave him oversight of all the charge of the house of Joseph.
Pea ko e tangata ko Selopoami ko e tangata toʻa lahi ia: pea ʻi heʻene mamata ʻe Solomone ki he faʻa ngāue ʻae talavou, naʻa ne fakanofo ia ke pule ki he ngāue kotoa pē ʻi he fale ʻo Siosefa.
29 And it came to pass, at that time, when, Jeroboam, went forth out of Jerusalem, that there met him Ahijah the Shilonite, the prophet, in the way, he having wrapped himself about with a new mantle; and, they two, were by themselves, in the field.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē ʻi he kuonga ko ia, ʻi he ʻalu ʻa Selopoami mei Selūsalema, naʻe ʻilo ia ʻi he hala ʻe he palōfita ko ʻAhisa ko e tangata Sailo; pea kuo ne fakakofuʻaki ia ha kofu foʻou; pea ko kinaua pe ʻe toko ua naʻe ʻi he ngoue:
30 Then Ahijah laid hold of the new mantle, that was upon him, —and rent it into twelve pieces;
Pea naʻe puke atu ʻe ʻAhisa ki he kofu foʻou naʻa ne kofuʻaki, mo ne haehae ia ki he konga ʻe hongofulu ma ua:
31 and said to Jeroboam, Take thee ten places, —for Thus, saith Yahweh, God of Israel—Behold me! about to rend the kingdom, out of the hand of Solomon, and I will give unto thee ten tribes:
Pea naʻa ne pehē kia Selopoami, “Toʻo ʻe koe ʻae konga ʻe hongofulu: he ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, ‘Vakai, te u hae mai ʻae puleʻanga mei he nima ʻo Solomone, pea te u ange ʻae faʻahinga ʻe hongofulu kiate koe.
32 Howbeit, one tribe, shall he retain, —for the sake of my servant David, and for the sake of Jerusalem, the city that I have chosen, out of all the tribes of Israel:
(Ka ʻe ʻiate ia ʻae faʻahinga ʻe taha koeʻuhi ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki ko Tevita, pea koeʻuhi ko Selūsalema, ko e kolo ʻaia kuo u fili mai mei he ngaahi faʻahinga kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli: )
33 Because they have forsaken me, and bowed themselves down to Ashtoreth, goddess of the Zidonians, to Chemosh, god of the Moabites, and to Milcom, god of the sons of Ammon, —and have not walked in my ways, by doing what is right in mine eyes, even my statutes and my regulations, like David his father.
Koeʻuhi kuo nau liʻaki au, pea kuo[nau ]lotu kia ʻAsitelote ko e ʻotua fefine ʻo Saitoni, mo Kimosi ko e ʻotua ʻoe kakai Moape, mo Milikomi ko e ʻotua ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻAmoni, pea kuo ʻikai ʻalu ʻakinautolu ʻi hoku ngaahi hala, ke fai totonu ʻi hoku ʻao, pea ki heʻeku ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni mo ʻeku ngaahi fakamaau, ʻo hangē ko Tevita ko ʻene tamai.
34 Yet will I not take all the kingdom out of his hand, —but will suffer him to be, leader, all the days of his life, for the sake of David my servant, whom I chose, —who kept my commandments and my statutes.
Ka ʻe ʻikai foki te u toʻo mei hono nima ʻae puleʻanga kātoa: ka te u tuku ia ke tuʻi ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē ʻo ʻene moʻui koeʻuhi ko Tevita ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki, ʻaia naʻaku fili, koeʻuhi ko ʻene fai ki heʻeku ngaahi fekau mo ʻeku ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni:
35 But I will take the kingdom out of the hand of his son, and will give it to thee, even the ten tribes.
Ka te u toʻo mai ʻae puleʻanga mei he nima ʻo hono foha, pea te u ʻange ia kiate koe, ʻio, ʻae faʻahinga ʻe hongofulu.
36 Nevertheless, go his son, will I give one tribe, —to the end there may remain a lamp unto David my servant always before me, in Jerusalem, the city that I have chosen for myself, to put my Name there.
Pea ki hono foha ʻoʻona te u ʻange ʻae faʻahinga ʻe taha, koeʻuhi ke ai ha maama maʻuaipē ʻi hoku ʻao ʻi Selūsalema kia Tevita ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki, ʻae kolo ko ia kuo u fili ke tuku ki ai ʻa hoku huafa.
37 But, thee, will I take, and thou shalt reign over all that thy soul could desire, —and thou shalt be king over Israel.
Pea te u fili koe, pea te ke pule ʻo tatau mo ia kotoa pē ʻoku holi ki ai ho laumālie, pea te ke tuʻi ʻi ʻIsileli.
38 So shall it be, if thou wilt hearken unto all that I shall command thee, and wilt walk in my ways, and do that which is right in mine eyes, by keeping my statutes and my commandments, as did David my servant, then will I be with thee, and will build thee an assured house, as I have built for David, and will give unto thee, Israel.
Pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, kapau te ke fakafanongo ki he meʻa kotoa pē te u fekau kiate koe, pea ke ʻalu ʻi hoku ngaahi hala, mo ke fai totonu ʻi hoku ʻao, ke tauhi ʻeku ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni mo ʻeku ngaahi fekau, ʻo hangē ko ia naʻe fai ʻe Tevita ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki; pehē, te u kau kiate koe, mo langa kiate koe ha fale tuʻumaʻu, ʻo hangē ko ia naʻaku fokotuʻu kia Tevita, pea te u foaki ʻa ʻIsileli kiate koe.
39 Thus will I humiliate the seed of David, because of this; yet not for ever.
Pea koeʻuhi ko e meʻa ni te u fakamamahiʻi ʻae hako ʻo Tevita, ka ʻe ʻikai ke taʻengata.’”
40 When therefore Solomon sought to put, Jeroboam, to death, Jeroboam arose and fled into Egypt, unto Shishak king of Egypt, —and remained in Egypt, until the death of Solomon.
Ko ia naʻe kumi ai ʻe Solomone ke ne tāmateʻi ʻa Selopoami. Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ʻa Selopoami, ʻo ne hola ki ʻIsipite, kia Sisaki ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsipite, pea naʻa ne ʻi ʻIsipite ʻo aʻu ki he pekia ʻa Solomone.
41 Now, the rest of the story of Solomon, and all that he did, and his wisdom, are, they, not written in the book of the records of Solomon?
Pea ko hono toe ʻoe ngaahi ngāue ʻa Solomone, mo ia fulipē naʻa ne fai, pea mo ʻene poto, ʻikai kuo tohi ia ʻi he tohi ʻoe ngaahi ngāue ʻa Solomone?
42 Now, the days which Solomon reigned in Jerusalem, over all Israel, were forty years.
Pea ko e kuonga naʻe pule ai ʻa Solomone ʻi Selūsalema ki ʻIsileli kātoa ko e taʻu ia ʻe fāngofulu.
43 So then Solomon slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David his father, —and Rehoboam his son reigned in his stead.
Pea naʻe mohe ʻa Solomone ki heʻene ngaahi tamai pea naʻe fai hono putu ki he Kolo ʻo Tevita ko ʻene tamai: pea naʻe fetongi ia ʻi he pule ʻe hono foha ko Lehopoami.
