1 Kings 11
1 King Solomon married many foreign women. First he married the daughter of the king of Egypt. He also married women from the Heth people-group and from the Moab, Ammon, and Edom people-groups, and from Sidon [city].
Kong Salomo hadde mange utlendske kvinnor som han elska - umfram dotter åt Farao; moabitiske, ammonitiske, edomitiske, sidoniske, hetitiske,
2 He married them even though Yahweh had commanded the Israeli people, “Do not marry people from those areas, because if you do that, they will surely persuade you [IDM] to worship the gods that they worship!”
kvinnor av dei heidningfolki som Herren hadde åtvara Israels-sønerne imot og sagt: «De skal ikkje hava noko med deim, og ikkje dei med dykk; elles kjem dei visseleg til å snu hjarta dykkar til sine gudar.» Salomo heldt seg til desse i elsk.
3 Solomon married 700 women who were kings’ daughters. He also had 300 wives who were his slaves/servants. And his wives caused him to turn away [from worshiping God].
Han hadde sju hundrad konor av fyrsteætt og tri hundrad fylgjekonor, og konorne vende hjarta hans.
4 By the time that Solomon became old, they had persuaded him to worship the gods from their countries. He was not completely dedicated/committed to Yahweh his God like his father [SYN] David had been.
Ja, då Salomo vart gamall, drog dei hjarta hans til andre gudar, so hjarta hans var ikkje heilt med Herren hans Gud, soleis som hjarta åt David, far hans.
5 Solomon worshiped Astarte, the goddess that the people of Sidon [worshiped], and he worshiped Molech, the disgusting god that the Ammon people-group [worshiped].
Og Salomo fylgde Astarte, sidoniarguden, og Milkom, styggedomen åt ammonitarne.
6 That’s how Solomon did things that Yahweh said were evil. He did not conduct his life like his father David had done; he did not conduct his life as Yahweh wanted him to.
Soleis gjorde Salomo det som var vondt i Herrens augo, og fylgde ikkje Herren i eit og alt som David, far hans.
7 On the hill to the east of Jerusalem he built a place to worship Chemosh, the disgusting god that the Moab people-group [worshiped], and a place to worship Molech, the disgusting god that the Ammon people-group [worshiped].
Salomo bygde då ein offerhaug på berget austanfor Jerusalem åt Kamos, styggedomen åt Moab, og for Molek, styggedomen åt Ammons-sønerne.
8 He also built places where all his foreign wives could burn incense and offer sacrifices to the gods from their own countries.
Og det same gjorde han for alle dei utlendske konorne sine, so dei fekk brenna røykjelse og ofra til gudarne sine.
9 Even though Yahweh, the God whom the Israelis [worshiped], had appeared to Solomon two times, and had commanded him to not worship foreign gods, Solomon refused to obey Yahweh. So Yahweh was angry with Solomon,
Då vart Herren harm på Salomo, for di han hadde vendt hjarta sitt burt ifrå Herren, Israels Gud, som hadde openberra seg for honom tvo gonger
og gjeve honom eit serskilt bod um dette, at han ikkje skulde fylgja andre gudar; men han hadde ikkje agta på Herrens bod.
11 and said to him, “You have chosen to break the agreement that I made with you and to disobey what I commanded you. So I am surely not going to allow you to rule all of your kingdom. I am going to allow one of your officials to rule it.
Difor sagde Herren til Salomo: «Etter di du er komen på dette, og ikkje hev halde pakti mi og loverne mine, som eg hev gjeve deg, vil eg riva riket ifrå deg og gjeva det til tenaren din.
12 But, because of [what I promised] your father David, I will allow you to rule all your kingdom while you are still [living]. [After you die], I will not allow your son to rule the whole kingdom [MTY].
Men for David, far din, skuld vil eg ikkje gjera dette i di tid; eg riv det or handi på son din.
13 But I will not take all the kingdom away from him. Instead, I will allow him to rule one tribe [besides the tribe of Judah], because of what I promised to David, who served me [well], and because [I want David’s descendants to rule in] Jerusalem, [where my temple is located].”
Heile riket vil eg like vel ikkje riva ifrå honom. Eitt fylke vil eg gjeva son din for David, far din, skuld og for Jerusalem skuld, som eg hev valt ut.»
14 Yahweh caused Hadad, from the family of the kings in the Edom people-group, to rebel against Solomon.
Og Herren vekte upp ein motmann imot Salomo; edomiten Hadad; han var av kongsætti i Edom.
15 What happened was that previously, when David’s [army] had conquered the Edom people-group, his army commander Joab had gone there to [help] bury the [Israeli soldiers] who had been killed [in the battle]. Joab and his army remained in the Edom area for six months, and during that time they killed all the males of that area.
Då David var i Edom, og herhovdingen Joab for upp og skulde gravleggja dei falne og med det same slo i hel alt som mann var i Edom
- for Joab og heile Israel vart verande der i seks månader, til dess han hadde rudt ut alt som mann var i Edom -
17 Hadad was a young child [at that time], and he had escaped to Egypt, along with some of his father’s servants from the Edom area.
då rømde denne Hadad, han sjølv og nokre edomitiske menner, som hadde vore i tenesta hjå far hans, og tok vegen til Egyptarland. Hadad var den gong ein liten gut.
18 They [went to the] Midian [region], and then they went to [the desert area at] Paran. Some other men joined them there. Then they all traveled to Egypt and went to see the king of Egypt. The king gave Hadad some land and ordered his servants to give him some food regularly.
Og dei drog ut frå Midjan og kom til Paran; frå Paran tok dei med seg nokre menner og kom til Egyptarland til Farao, egyptarkongen; han gav honom eit hus og rettleide honom med upphald og let honom få jord.
19 The king liked Hadad. As a result he gave him the sister of his own wife, Queen Tahpenes, to be Hadad’s wife.
Hadad fann stor godvilje hjå Farao, so han gav honom til kona syster åt kona si, syster åt dronning Tahpenes.
20 Later Hadad’s wife gave birth to a son named Genubath. The sister of Tahpenes (raised him/brought him up) in the palace, where he lived with the king’s sons.
Og denne syster åt Tahpenes fødde sonen Genubat åt honom; Tahpenes vande honom av i huset åt Farao, og Genubat vart verande i huset der med sønerne åt Farao.
21 While Hadad was in Egypt, he heard that David had died [EUP], and that Joab, the commander of David’s army, was also dead. So he said to the king of Egypt, “Please allow me to return to my own country.”
Men då Hadad høyrde i Egyptarland, at David hadde lagt seg til kvile hjå federne sine, og at Joab, stridshovdingen, var avliden, so sagde Hadad til Farao: «Slepp meg no, so eg kann fara heim til landet mitt!»
22 But the king said to him, “Why do you want to go back to your country? Is there something that you lack that you want me to give to you?” Hadad replied, “No, but please just allow me to go.” [So the king allowed him to leave, and he returned to his own country and became the king of Edom].
Farao sagde til honom: «Kva saknar du her hjå meg, sidan du vil fara heim til landet ditt?» Han svara: «Ingen ting; men du må plent lata meg fara.»
23 God also caused another man named Rezon, the son of Eliada, to rebel against Solomon. Rezon had run away from his master, King Hadadezer of [the] Zobah [area north of Damascus].
Gud vekte upp ein motmann til imot Salomo: Rezon Eljadason; han var rømd ifrå herren sin, Hadadezer, kongen i Soba.
24 Rezon then became the leader of a group of outlaws. That happened after David’s [army had defeated Hadadezer and] had [also] killed all [his soldiers]. Rezon and his men went to Damascus and started to live there, and [the people there] appointed him to be their king.
Der samla han ein flokk um seg, den gong David slo folket i hel, og vart røvarhovding; dei drog av til Damaskus, slo seg ned der og styrde i Damaskus.
25 All during the time that Solomon was alive, while Rezon was ruling [not only Damascus but all of] Syria, he was an enemy of Israel and caused trouble for Israel like Hadad did.
Han vart ein motmann imot Israel so lenge Salomo livde, og skadde det, både han og Hadad; han hata Israel og vart konge yver Syria.
26 Another man who rebelled against [IDM] Solomon was one of his officials named Jeroboam, the son of Nebat. He was from Zeredah [town] in [the region where the tribe of] Ephraim [lives]. His mother was a widow named Zeruah.
Ein av mennerne åt Salomo heitte Jerobeam; han var son åt Nebat, ein efraimit frå Sereda; mor hans heitte Serua og var enkja. Og han gjorde uppreist mot kongen.
27 This is what happened. Solomon’s workers were filling in the land/ground on the east side of Jerusalem and repairing the walls [around the city].
Grunnen til at han lyfte hand imot kongen, var dette: Salomo bygde Millo og sette stengsla for opningi til byen åt David, far sin.
28 Jeroboam was a very capable young man. So, when Solomon saw that he worked very hard, he appointed him to supervise all the men who were forced to work in the areas where the tribes of Manasseh and Ephraim live.
No var Jerobeam ein dugande kar, og då Salomo såg at han var drivande i arbeidet sitt, sette han honom til tilsynsmann yver alt arbeidet som Josefs hus hadde på seg.
29 One day when Jeroboam was walking alone along the road outside of Jerusalem, the prophet Ahijah from Shiloh [city] met him. Ahijah was wearing a new robe,
So hende det ein gong ved det leitet, at Jerobeam var gjengen ut or Jerusalem, og at profeten Ahia frå Silo råka honom på vegen. Han hadde på seg ei ny kåpa, og dei var tvo-eine på marki.
30 which he took off and tore into twelve pieces.
Då tok Ahia den nye kåpa han hadde på seg, og reiv henne i tolv stykke.
31 He said to Jeroboam, “Take ten of these pieces for yourself, because Yahweh, the God whom we Israelis [worship], says to you, ‘I am going to tear the kingdom from Solomon, and I am going to enable you to become the ruler of ten of the tribes [of Israel].
Og han sagde til Jerobeam: «Tak deg ti stykke! For so segjer Herren, Israels Gud: «Sjå, eg vil riva riket ut or handi på Salomo og gjeva deg ti av ætterne;
32 Solomon’s [descendants] will still rule one tribe (OR, two tribes), because of [what I promised] David, a man who served me [very well], and because of Jerusalem, the city that I have chosen from all the cities in Israel [to be the city where my people will worship me].
men den eine ætti skal han få hava for David skuld, tenaren min, og for Jerusalem skuld, den byen eg hev valt millom alle Israels fylke.
33 I am going to do this because Solomon has rejected me and has been worshiping Astarte, the goddess that the people of Sidon worship, Chemosh, the god that the Moab people-group worship, and Milcom, the god that the Ammon people-group worship. He has not conducted his life as I wanted him to. He has not obeyed my statutes and laws, like his father David did.
Det skal ganga so, for di dei hev vike ifrå meg og bede til Astarte, sidonarguden, til Kamos, Moabs-guden, og til Milkom, ammonitarguden, og ikkje gjenge mine vegar, ikkje gjort det som rett er i mine augo, eller halde loverne mine og bodi mine, soleis som David, far hans, gjorde.
34 ‘But I will not take the entire kingdom away from him. I will enable him to rule [Judah] all during the years that he is alive. I will do that because of [what I promised to do for] David, whom I chose [to be the king], and who served me [well], and who always obeyed my commandments and laws.
Eg vil like vel ikkje taka noko av riket ifrå honom sjølv, men lata honom vera fyrste so lenge han liver, for David skuld, tenaren min, han som eg valde ut, og som agta på bodi og loverne mine.
35 But I will take the [other] ten tribes of his kingdom and give them to you [to rule].
Men ifrå son hans vil eg taka riket, og gjeva deg det, dei ti ætterne, meiner eg;
36 I will allow Solomon’s son to rule one tribe, in order that descendants [MET] of David will always rule in Jerusalem, the city that I have chosen to be the place where [my people worship] me [MTY].
son hans vil eg gjeva ein av ætterne, so tenaren min, David, alle dagar må hava ei lampa framfor mi åsyn i Jerusalem, den byen som eg hev valt meg ut til bustad for namnet mitt.
37 I will enable you to become the king of Israel, and you will rule over all the territory that you want to.
Deg vil eg då kåra, du skal råda yver alt du hev hug til, og vera konge yver Israel.
38 If you obey all that I command you to do, and conduct your life as I want you to, and if you do what I say is right by obeying my laws and commandments like David did, I will help you. I will make sure that your descendants will rule after you [die], like I [promised to] do for David.
Og lyder du alt som eg byd deg, og gjeng mine vegar og gjer det som rett er i mine augo, so du held loverne mine og bodi mine, soleis som David, tenaren min, gjorde, so vil eg vera med deg og byggja deg eit hus som stend fast, soleis som eg bygde for David, og gjeva deg Israel.
39 Because of [Solomon’s sins], I will punish David’s descendants, but I will not continue to punish them forever.’”
Og Davids ætt vil eg mykja for dette, men like vel ikkje for alltid.»»
40 Solomon [found out what Ahijah told Jeroboam], so he tried to kill Jeroboam. But Jeroboam escaped and went to Egypt. He went to Shishak, the king of Egypt, and stayed with him until after Solomon died.
Salomo freista å taka livet av Jerobeam; men Jerobeam reis upp og rømde undan til Egyptarland til egyptarkongen Sisak, og han vart verande i Egyptarland til Salomo døydde.
41 [A record of] all the other things that Solomon did, and all the wise things that he [said and wrote], was written in the Book Telling what Solomon Did.
Det som elles er å fortelja um Salomo og alt det han gjorde, og um visdomen hans, det er uppskrive i krønikeboki åt Salomo.
42 He was the king in Jerusalem who ruled over all of Israel for 40 years.
Den tid Salomo var konge i Jerusalem yver heile Israel, var fyrti år.
43 Then Solomon died [EUP], and was buried in the [part of Jerusalem called] ‘The City of David’. And his son Rehoboam became the king.
So lagde Salomo seg til kvile hjå federne sine og vart gravlagd i byen åt David, far sin, og Rehabeam, son hans, vart konge i staden hans.
