1 Wa 11

1 Salomon te renmen ak anpil fanm ki moun lòt nasyon. San konte pitit fi wa peyi Lejip la, li te gen fanm ki soti nan peyi Moab, nan peyi Amon, nan peyi Edon, nan peyi Sidon ak nan peyi Et.

And king Solomon hath loved many strange women, and the daughter of Pharaoh, females of Moab, Ammon, Edom, Zidon, [and] of the Hittites,

2 Li te marye ak anpil fanm ki soti nan lòt nasyon, atout Seyè a te bay moun pèp Izrayèl yo lòd pou yo pa janm marye ak moun sa yo, pou yo pa janm kite yo mele ak yo, paske moun sa yo va pran tèt yo pou fè yo sèvi bondye pa yo. Men, Salomon te sitèlman renmen yo, li marye ak yo.

of the nations of which Jehovah said unto the sons of Israel, 'Ye do not go in to them, and they do not go in to you; surely they turn aside your heart after their gods;' to them hath Solomon cleaved for love.

3 Salomon te marye ak sètsan (700) madanm ki soti nan fanmi gwo chèf, lèfini li te gen twasan (300) fanm kay. Medam sa yo fè l' vire do bay Bondye.

And he hath women, princesses, seven hundred, and concubines three hundred; and his wives turn aside his heart.

4 Lè Salomon konmanse granmoun, medam yo pran tèt li, yo fè l' al sèvi lòt bondye. Li pa sèvi Seyè a, Bondye li a, ak tout kè li ankò, jan David, papa l', te fè l' la.

And it cometh to pass, at the time of the old age of Solomon, his wives have turned aside his heart after other gods, and his heart hath not been perfect with Jehovah his God, like the heart of David his father.

5 Li pran sèvi Astate, bondye peyi Sidon an, ak Milkòm, vye zidòl degoutan peyi Amon an.

And Solomon goeth after Ashtoreth god[dess] of the Zidonians, and after Milcom the abomination of the Ammonites;

6 Salomon tanmen fè sa ki mal devan Seyè a. Li pa sèvi l' ak tout kè li jan David, papa l', te fè a.

and Solomon doth the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah, and hath not been fully after Jehovah, like David his father.

7 Sou mòn ki sou bò solèy leve lavil Jerizalèm lan, li bati de tanp, yonn kote yo fè sèvis pou Kemòch, vye zidòl degoutan peyi Moab la, ak yonn kote yo fè sèvis pou Molòk, vye zidòl degoutan peyi Amon an.

Then doth Solomon build 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;

8 Se konsa li bati lòt tanp kote pou medam lòt nasyon li te marye yo al boule lansan ak ofri bèt pou touye pou bondye pa yo.

and so he hath done for all his strange women, who are perfuming and sacrificing to their gods.

9 Seyè a move sou Salomon paske Salomon te vire do bay Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la. Atout Seyè a te parèt de fwa devan Salomon,

And Jehovah sheweth Himself angry with Solomon, for his heart hath turned aside from Jehovah, God of Israel, who had appeared unto him twice,

10 atout li te ba li lòd pou li pa sèvi bondye lòt nasyon yo, Salomon pa t' koute Seyè a, li pa swiv lòd li yo.

and given a charge unto him concerning this thing, not to go after other gods; and he hath not kept that which Jehovah commanded,

11 Seyè a di Salomon konsa: -Gade sa ou fè! Ou pa respekte kontra mwen te pase avè ou la, ou pa fè sa m' te ba ou lòd fè. M'ap wete baton kòmandman an nan men ou, m'ap mete yonn nan chèf ou yo nan plas ou.

and Jehovah saith to Solomon, 'Because that this hath been with thee, and thou hast not kept My covenant and My statutes that I charged upon thee, I surely rend the kingdom from thee, and have given it to thy servant.

12 Men, poutèt David, papa ou, mwen p'ap fè sa nan vivan ou. Se nan men pitit gason ou lan m'ap wete gouvènman an.

'Only, in thy days I do it not, for the sake of David thy father; out of the hand of thy son I rend it;

13 Men, mwen p'ap wete tout peyi a nèt anba lòd li. Poutèt David, sèvitè m' lan, poutèt lavil Jerizalèm mwen chwazi pou rele m' pa m' lan, m'ap kite yon branch fanmi pou li.

only all the kingdom I do not rend away; one tribe I give to thy son, for the sake of David My servant, and for the sake of Jerusalem, that I have chosen.'

14 Se konsa, Seyè a fè Adad, yon moun nan fanmi wa Edon an, leve dèyè Salomon.

And Jehovah raiseth up an adversary to Solomon, Hadad the Edomite; of the seed of the king [is] he in Edom;

15 Men istwa Adad: Lontan sa, nan tan David t'ap fè lagè ak peyi Edon, Joab, kòmandan lame li a, te moute nan peyi Edon al antere kadav sòlda pèp Izrayèl yo ki te mouri nan lagè a. Lèfini, yo touye dènye gason ki te nan peyi a.

and it cometh to pass, in David's being with Edom, in the going up of Joab head of the host to bury the slain, that he smiteth every male in Edom —

16 Joab rete sis mwa nan peyi a ansanm ak tout lame a jouk yo fin touye dènye gason ladan l'.

for six months did Joab abide there, and all Israel, till the cutting off of every male in Edom —

17 Lè sa a, Adad te timoun. Li te rive chape kò l' ansanm ak kèk lòt moun peyi Edon ki t'ap travay kay papa l'. Y' ale nan peyi Lejip.

and Hadad fleeth, he and certain Edomites, of the servants of his father, with him, to go in to Egypt, and Hadad [is] a little youth,

18 Yo kite lavil Madyan, yo pase lavil Paran. Antan yo la, yo pran kèk gason avèk yo, yo desann peyi Lejip bò kote wa peyi a. Farawon an ba li yon kay pou l' rete ak yon pòsyon tè pou l' travay. Lèfini li ba li manje.

and they rise out of Midian, and come into Paran, and take men with them out of Paran, and come in to Egypt, unto Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he giveth to him a house, and bread hath commanded for him, and land hath given to him.

19 Adad sitèlman vin bon zanmi farawon an, farawon an pran bèlsè li, sè larenn Takpènès, li bay Adad li pou madanm.

And Hadad findeth grace in the eyes of Pharaoh exceedingly, and he giveth to him a wife, the sister of his own wife, sister of Tahpenes the mistress;

20 Madan Adad fè yon pitit gason yo te rele Genoubat. Larenn Takpenès fè elve Genoubat nan palè a kote li grandi ansanm ak tout pitit wa yo.

and the sister of Tahpenes beareth to him Genubath his son, and Tahpenes weaneth him within the house of Pharaoh, and Genubath is in the house of Pharaoh in the midst of the sons of Pharaoh.

21 Lè nouvèl lanmò David ak lanmò Joab rive nan peyi Lejip, tonbe nan zòrèy Adad, Adad di farawon an konsa: -Kite m' tounen nan peyi m'.

And Hadad hath heard in Egypt that David hath lain with his fathers, and that Joab head of the host is dead, and Hadad saith unto Pharaoh, 'Send me away, and I go unto my land.'

22 Farawon an mande l': -Poukisa? Eske ou janm manke anyen isit lakay mwen kifè ou vle tounen lakay ou? Adad reponn li: -Mwen gen tou sa m' bezwen. Men se pou ou kite m' ale. Se konsa Adad tounen nan peyi l'.

And Pharaoh saith to him, 'But, what art thou lacking with me, that lo, thou art seeking to go unto thine own land?' and he saith, 'Nay, but thou dost certainly send me away.'

23 Bondye fè yon lòt moun leve dèyè Salomon ankò. Se te Rezon, pitit gason Elyada, ki te kouri kite lakay mèt li, Adadezè, wa peyi Soba a.

And God raiseth to him an adversary, Rezon son of Eliadah, who hath fled from Hadadezer king of Zobah, his lord,

24 Rezon sanble yon bann gason avè l'. Se konsa li vin chèf yon bann bandi. Lè sa a, David te bat Adadezè, li touye tout moun peyi Siri ki t'ap mache avèk Adadezè. Se konsa Rezon desann lavil Damas. Li vin chèf lavil Damas.

and gathereth unto himself men, and is head of a troop in David's slaying them, and they go to Damascus, and dwell in it, and reign in Damascus;

25 Pandan tout rèy wa Salomon, Rezon pa t' vle wè pèp Izrayèl la. Mete sou mechanste Adad t'ap fè pèp Izrayèl la, Rezon pa t' vle wè pèp Izrayèl la menm. Rezon te vin wa nan peyi Siri.

and he is an adversary to Israel all the days of Solomon, (besides the evil that Hadad [did]), and he cutteth off in Israel, and reigneth over Aram.

26 Yon lòt moun ki te bay Salomon do ankò, se te Jewoboram, yonn nan moun ki t'ap sèvi avèk Salomon yo. Jewoboram te pitit Nebat, yon nonm lavil Zereda nan peyi Efrayim. Manman l' te yon vèv yo te rele Sewa.

And Jeroboam son of Nebat, an Ephrathite of Zereda — the name of whose mother [is] Zeruah, a widow woman — servant to Solomon, he also lifteth up a hand against the king;

27 Men rezon ki te pote Jewoboram bay Salomon do. Salomon t'ap fè yo ranbleye teras ki bay sou solèy leve lavil Jerizalèm lan. Li t'ap fè repare miray Lavil David, papa l'.

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 David his father,

28 Jewoboram te yon vanyan gason, lèfini li te konn sa li vle. Lè Salomon wè jan jenn gason an te travay rèd, li mete l' reskonsab travay kòve nan pòsyon tè ki pou fanmi pitit Jozèf yo.

and the man Jeroboam [is] mighty in valour, and Solomon seeth the young man that he is doing business, and appointeth him over all the burden of the house of Joseph.

29 Yon jou, Jewoboram te fèk kite lavil Jerizalèm, li kontre sou wout li ak Akija, pwofèt lavil Silo a. Akija te gen yon rad tou nèf sou li. De mesye yo te pou kont yo sou wout la nan mitan jaden yo.

And it cometh to pass, at that time, that Jeroboam hath gone out from Jerusalem, and Ahijah the Shilonite, the prophet, findeth him in the way, and he is covering himself with a new garment; and both of them [are] by themselves in a field,

30 Akija wete rad nèf ki te sou li a, li chire l' fè douz moso.

and Ahijah layeth hold on the new garment that [is] on him, and rendeth it — twelve pieces,

31 Lèfini, li di Jewoboam: -Pran dis moso pou ou, paske Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, voye di ou: Mwen pral wete kòmandman peyi a nan men Salomon, m'ap ba ou dis branch fanmi pou ou.

and saith to Jeroboam, 'Take to thee ten pieces, for thus said Jehovah, God of Israel, lo, I am rending the kingdom out of the hand of Solomon, and have given to thee the ten tribes,

32 Salomon pral rete ak yon sèl branch fanmi. M'ap fè sa pou li poutèt David, sèvitè m' lan, poutèt lavil Jerizalèm mwen te chwazi nan tout peyi Izrayèl pou rele m' pa m' lan.

and the one tribe he hath 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.

33 Salomon vire do ban mwen, l' al adore bondye lòt nasyon, tankou Astate, zidòl fanm moun peyi Sidon yo, Kemòch, bondye moun Moab yo, ak Milkòm, bondye moun Amon yo. Salomon pa fè sa ki byen devan je mwen, li pa mache dwat, li pa swiv lòd ak kòmandman mwen yo tankou David, papa l', te fè l' la.

'Because they have forsaken Me, and bow themselves to Ashtoreth, god[dess] 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 Mine eyes, and My statutes and My judgments, like David his father.

34 Men, mwen pa t' wete gouvènman tout peyi a nan men l'. M'ap kite l' gouvènen konsa jouk li mouri. M'ap fè sa pou li poutèt David, sèvitè m' lan, yon nonm mwen te chwazi, yon nonm ki te mache sou lòd ak kòmandman mwen yo.

'And I do not take the whole of the kingdom out of his hand, for prince I make him all days of his life, for the sake of David My servant whom I chose, who kept My commands and My statutes;

35 Men, m'ap wete gouvènman tout peyi a nan men pitit gason l' lan. M'ap ba ou dis branch fanmi pou gouvènen.

and I have taken the kingdom out of the hand of his son, and given it to thee — the ten tribes;

36 M'ap kite yon sèl branch fanmi pou pitit li a. Konsa, David, sèvitè m' lan, va toujou gen yon moun nan ras li ap gouvènen lavil Jerizalèm, lavil mwen te chwazi pou m' rete a.

and to his son I give one tribe, for there being a lamp to David My servant all the days before Me in Jerusalem, the city that I have chosen to Myself to put My name there.

37 Ou menm, mwen pran ou, m'ap mete ou wa sou tout peyi Izrayèl la. Konsa, w'a chèf sou tout peyi ou vle a.

'And thee I take, and thou hast reigned over all that thy soul desireth, and thou hast been king over Israel;

38 Si ou fè tou sa mwen mande ou fè, si ou mache sou lòd mwen, si ou fè sa ki dwat devan je m', si ou kenbe tout lòd ak tout kòmandman mwen yo tankou David, sèvitè m' lan, te fè l' la, m'ap toujou kanpe la avè ou. Lèfini, tankou mwen te fè sa pou David, m'ap fè ou toujou gen yon moun nan fanmi ou k'ap wa apre ou. M'ap ba ou peyi Izrayèl la pou ou.

and it hath been, if thou dost hear all that I command thee, and hast walked in My ways, and done that which is right in Mine eyes, to keep My statutes and My commands, as did David My servant, that I have been with thee, and have built for thee a stedfast house, as I built for David, and have given to thee Israel,

39 Se konsa m'ap pini moun fanmi David yo. Men, se p'ap pou tout tan.

and I humble the seed of David for this; only, not all the days.'

40 Se poutèt sa Salomon te soti pou l' touye Jewoboam. Men, Jewoboram leve, li kouri ale nan peyi Lejip, bò Chichak, wa peyi a. Li rete la jouk Salomon mouri.

And Solomon seeketh to put Jeroboam to death, and Jeroboam riseth and fleeth to Egypt, unto Shishak king of Egypt, and he is in Egypt till the death of Solomon.

41 Se nan liv istwa Salomon an nou jwenn tout lòt bagay Salomon te fè yo ak jan li te gen bon konprann.

And the rest of the matters of Solomon, and all that he did, and his wisdom, are they not written on the book of the matters of Solomon?

42 Salomon te wa lavil Jerizalèm, li te gouvènen tout pèp Izrayèl la pandan karantan.

And the days that Solomon hath reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel [are] forty years,

43 Lè li mouri, yo antere l' nan lavil David, papa l'. Se Woboram, pitit li, ki moute nan plas li sou fotèy la.

and Solomon lieth with his fathers, and is buried in the city of David his father, and reign doth Rehoboam his son in his stead.
