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].
Men Konung Salomo älskade många utländska qvinnor, Pharaos dotter, och Moabitiskor, Ammonitiskor, Edoinitiskor, Zidonitiskor och Hetheerskor;
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!”
Af sådant folk, der Herren Israels barnom om sagt hade: Går icke till dem, och låter dem icke komma till eder; de varda förvisso bevekande edor hjerta efter sina gudar. Till dessa gaf sig Salomo, till att älska dem.
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].
Och han hade sjuhundrad hustrur, Förstinnor, och trehundrad frillor; och hans hustrur bevekte hans hjerta.
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.
Och då han nu gammal var, bevekte hans hustrur hans hjerta efter främmande gudar, så att hans hjerta icke var fulleliga med Herranom hans Gud, såsom hans faders Davids hjerta.
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].
Alltså vandrade Salomo efter Astoreth, deras gud af Zidon, och Milcom, de Ammoniters styggelse.
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.
Och Salomo gjorde det ondt var för Herranom, och följde icke Herran alldeles, såsom hans fader David.
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].
Då byggde Salomo en höjd till Chemos, de Moabiters styggelse, på berget som för Jerusalem ligger; och till Molech, de Ammoniters styggelse.
8 He also built places where all his foreign wives could burn incense and offer sacrifices to the gods from their own countries.
Alltså gjorde Salomo allom sinom utländskom hustrum, de der för sina gudar rökte och offrade.
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,
Och Herren vardt vred på Salomo, att hans hjerta ifrå Herranom Israels Gud afvändt var, den honom två gånger synts hade;
Och honom härom budit hade, att han icke skulle vandra efter andra gudar; och hade dock icke hållit det honom Herren budit hade.
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.
Derföre sade Herren till Salomo: Efter sådant är skedt med dig, och du hafver mitt förbund och min bud icke hållit, som jag dig budit hafver, så vill jag ock, rifva riket ifrå dig, och gifva det dinom tjenare.
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].
Dock i din tid vill jag icke göra det, för dins faders Davids skull; utan af dins sons hand vill jag rifva det.
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].”
Dock vill jag icke allt riket afrifva; ena slägt vill jag gifva dinom son, för min tjenares Davids skull, och för Jerusalems skull, det jag utvalt hafver.
14 Yahweh caused Hadad, from the family of the kings in the Edom people-group, to rebel against Solomon.
Och Herren uppväckte Salomo en fienda, Hadad den Edomeen, af Konungsligo säd, hvilken var 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.
Ty då David var i Edom, och Joab den härhöfvitsmannen drog upp till att begrafva de slagna, slog han allt det mankön var i Edom.
Förty Joab blef der sex månader, och hele Israel, intilldess han utrotade allt det mankön 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 flydde Hadad, och med honom någre män Edomeer af hans faders tjenare, så att de kommo uti Egypten; men Hadad var en ung dräng.
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.
Och de stodo upp ifrån Midian, och kommo till Paran, och togo män med sig utaf Paran, och kommo uti Egypten titt Pharao, Konungen i Egypten. Han gaf honom ett hus, och förenämnd spis, och fick honom ett land in.
19 The king liked Hadad. As a result he gave him the sister of his own wife, Queen Tahpenes, to be Hadad’s wife.
Och Hadad fann stora nåd för Pharao, så att han ock gaf honom sina hustrus, Drottningenes Tahpenes syster, till hustru.
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.
Och Tahpenes syster födde honom Genubath sin son; Och Tahpenes födde honom upp i Pharaos hus; så att Genubath var i Pharaos huse ibland Pharaos barn.
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.”
Då nu Hadad hörde uti Egypten, att David afsomnad var med sina fäder, och att Joab härhöfvitsmannen var död, sade han till Pharao: Låt mig draga i mitt land.
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].
Pharao sade till honom: Hvad fattas dig när mig, att du vill draga till ditt land? Han sade: Intet; utan låt mig 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].
Än uppväckte honom Gud en fienda, Reson, ElJada son, hvilken ifrå sin herra HadadEser, Konungen i Zoba, flydd var;
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.
Och församlade emot honom män, och vardt en höfvitsman för krigsknektar, den tid David slog dem ihjäl; och drogo till Damascon, och bodde der, och voro rådande i Damascon.
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.
Och han var Israels fiende, så länge Salomo lefde. Det är den skadan, som Hadad led; derföre hade han en vämjelse emot Israel, och blef rådandes i Syrien.
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.
Dertill Jerobeam, Nebats son, en Ephrateer af Zareda, Salomos tjenare; och hans moder het Zeruga, en enka; hof också handena upp emot Konungen.
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].
Och detta är saken, hvarföre han upphof handena emot Konungen: då Salomo byggde Millo, slöt han igen ett gap på sins faders Davids stad.
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.
Och Jerobeam var en stridsam man; och då Salomo såg att mannen var snäll, satte han honom öfver alla Josephs hus utskylder.
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,
Men det begaf sig på den tiden, att Jerobeam gick utaf Jerusalem, och Propheten Ahia af Silo fann honom på vägenom; och han hade en ny mantel uppå; och de voro både allena på markene.
30 which he took off and tore into twelve pieces.
Och Ahia fattade den nya mantelen, som han på hade, och ref honom sönder i tolf stycker;
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].
Och sade till Jerobeam: Tag tio stycker till dig; förty så säger Herren Israels Gud: Si, jag skall rifva riket utu Salomos hand, och gifva dig tio slägter.
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].
En slägt skall han hafva för min tjenares Davids skull, och för staden Jerusalems skull, den jag utvalt hafver utur alla Israels slägter;
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.
Derföre att de hafva öfvergifvit mig, och tillbedit Astoreth, de Zidoniers gud, Chemos, de Moabiters gud, och Milcom, Ammons barnas gud, och icke vandrat i mina vägar, så att de måtte gjort hvad mig behagade, min bud och rätter, såsom David hans fader.
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.
Jag vill ock icke taga hela riket utu hans hand; utan jag vill göra honom till en Första i hans lifstid, för Davids min tjenares skull, den jag utvalt hafver, den min bud och rätter hållit hafver.
35 But I will take the [other] ten tribes of his kingdom and give them to you [to rule].
Utu hans sons hand vill jag taga riket, och vill gifva dig tio slägter;
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].
Och hans son ena slägt, på det min tjenare David ju allstädes hafver ena lykto för mig uti den staden Jerusalem, den jag mig utvalt hafver, att jag mitt Namn der sätta skulle.
37 I will enable you to become the king of Israel, and you will rule over all the territory that you want to.
Så vill jag nu taga dig, att du skall råda öfver allt det ditt hjerta begärar; och skall vara Konung öfver 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.
Om du nu vill höra allt det jag dig bjudandes varder, och vandra i mina vägar, och göra hvad mig behagar, så att du håller mina rätter och bud, såsom min tjenare David gjort hafver, så vill jag vara med dig, och bygga dig ett beständigt hus, såsom jag David byggt hafver, och vill gifva dig Israel;
39 Because of [Solomon’s sins], I will punish David’s descendants, but I will not continue to punish them forever.’”
Och vill dermed förnedra Davids säd; dock icke till evig tid.
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.
Men Salomo for efter att dräpa Jerobeam. Då stod Jerobeam upp, och flydde uti Egypten till Sisak, Konungen i Egypten, och blef i Egypten, tilldess Salomo blef död.
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.
Hvad mer af Salomo sägandes är, och allt det han gjort hafver, och hans visdom, det är skrifvet i Chrönicon om Salomo.
42 He was the king in Jerusalem who ruled over all of Israel for 40 years.
Men tiden, som Salomo var Konung i Jerusalem, öfver hela Israel, var fyratio 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.
Och Salomo afsomnade med sina fäder, och vardt begrafven uti sins faders Davids stad; och hans son Rehabeam vardt Konung i hans stad.
