1 Wa 11
1 Alò, Wa Salomon te renmen anpil fanm etranje ansanm avèk fi Farawon an: Moabit yo, Amonit yo, Edomit yo, Sidonyen yo ak fanm Etyen yo,
And king Solomon was a lover of women. And he had seven hundred wives, princesses, and three hundred concubines. And he took strange women, as well as the daughter of Pharao, Moabitish, Ammanitish women, Syrians and Idumeans, Chettites, and Amorites;
2 ki te soti nan nasyon de sila SENYÈ a te di a fis Israël yo, “Ou p ap asosye avèk yo, ni yo p ap asosye avè w; paske yo va anverite vire kè ou lwen apre dye pa yo.” Salomon te kenbe rèd a sila yo nan renmen an.
of the nations concerning whom the Lord forbade the children of Israel, [saying], Ye shall not go in to them, and they shall not come in to you, lest they turn away your hearts after their idols: Solomon clave to these in love.
3 Li te gen sèt-san prensès kòm madanm, twa-san ti mennaj e madanm li yo te vire kè li lwen.
4 Paske lè Salomon te vin vye, madanm li yo te vire kè li lwen apre lòt dye yo. Epi kè li pa t konsakre nèt a SENYÈ a, Bondye pa li a, jan kè David, papa li te ye a.
And it came to pass in the time of the old age of Solomon, that his heart was not perfect with the Lord his God, as [was] the heart of David his father. And the strange women turned away his heart after their gods. Then Solomon built a high place to Chamos the idol of Moab, and to their king the idol of the children of Ammon,
5 Paske Salomon te kouri dèyè Astarté deyès a Sidonyen yo e apre Milcom, zidòl abominab a Amonit yo.
and to Astarte the abomination of the Sidonians.
6 Salomon te fè sa ki te mal nan zye a SENYÈ a e li pa t swiv SENYÈ a nèt, jan David, papa li te fè a.
And thus he acted towards all his strange wives, who burnt incense and sacrificed to their idols. And Solomon did that which was evil in the sight of the Lord: he went not after the Lord, as David his father.
7 Epi Salomon te bati yon wo plas pou Kemosh, wa abominab a Moab la, sou mòn ki nan lès Jérusalem lan e pou Moloc, zidòl abominab a fis a Ammon yo.
8 Se konsa li te fè pou tout madanm etranje li yo. Li te brile lansan e fè sakrifis a dye pa yo.
9 Alò, SENYÈ a te byen fache avèk Salomon akoz kè li te vire lwen SENYÈ a, Bondye Israël la, ki te vin parèt a li de fwa.
And the Lord was angry with Solomon, because he turned away his heart from the Lord God of Israel, who had appeared twice to him,
10 Li te kòmande li sou bagay sa a, ke li pa ta dwe ale apre lòt dye yo, men li pa t swiv sa ke SENYÈ a te kòmande a.
and charged him concerning this matter, by no means to go after other gods, but to take heed to do what the Lord God commanded him; neither was his heart perfect with the Lord, according to the heart of David his father.
11 Pou sa, SENYÈ a te di a Salomon: “Akoz ou te fè sa e ou pa t kenbe akò Mwen, avèk règleman Mwen yo, ke M te kòmande ou pou fè yo, Mwen va, anverite, chire wayòm nan soti nan men ou e Mwen va bay li a sèvitè ou.
And the Lord said to Solomon, Because it has been thus with thee, and thou hast not kept my commandments and my ordinances which I commanded thee, I will surely rend thy kingdom out of thy hand, and give it to thy servant.
12 Sepandan, se pa nan jou pa w yo ke M ap fè l, pou koz David, papa ou. Men m ap chire l nan men fis ou yo.
Only in thy days I will not do it for David thy father's sake: [but] I will take it out of the hand of thy son.
13 Malgre sa, mwen p ap rache tout wayòm nan, men Mwen va bay yon tribi a fis ou pou koz a sèvitè Mwen an, David e pou koz Jérusalem ke M te chwazi a.”
Only I will not take away the whole kingdom: I will give one tribe to thy son for David my servant's sake, and for the sake of Jerusalem, the city which I have chosen.
14 Alò, SENYÈ a te fè leve yon lènmi a Salomon, Hadad, Edomit lan; li te nan ras wayal a Édom an.
And the Lord raised up an enemy to Solomon, Ader the Idumaean, and Esrom son of Eliadae who [dwelt] in Raama, [and] Adadezer king of Suba his master; (and men gathered to him, and he was head of the conspiracy, and he seized on Damasec, ) and they were adversaries to Israel all the days of Solomon: and Ader the Idumaean [was] of the seed royal in Idumaea.
15 Paske li te vin rive ke lè David te Édom e Joab, chèf lame a te monte pou antere mò yo, li te frape touye tout gason nan Édom yo
And it happened, that while David was utterly destroying Edom, while Joab captain of the host was going to bury the dead, when they slew every male in Idumaea;
16 (paske Joab avèk tout Israël te rete la pandan si mwa, jiskaske li te koupe, fè desann tout gason nan Édom yo.)
(for Joab and all Israel abode there six months in Idumaea, until he utterly destroyed every male in Idumaea; )
17 Se nan moman sa a ke Hadad te sove ale rive an Égypte, li menm avèk kèk Edomit ki te sèvitè a papa li avèk li, pandan Hadad te jenn gason.
that Ader ran away, he and all the Idumaeans of the servants of his father with him; and they went into Egypt; and Ader [was then] a little child.
18 Yo te leve soti Madian, pou rive Paran. Yo te pran mesye yo avèk yo soti Paran pou te rive an Égypte, kote Farawon, wa Égypte la. Farawon te bay yo yon kay e li te founi Hadad avèk manje e li te bay li tè.
And there rise up men out of the city of Madiam, and they come to Pharan, and take men with them, and come to Pharao king of Egypt: and Ader went in to Pharao, and he gave him a house, and appointed him provision.
19 Alò, Hadad te twouve gran favè devan Farawon. Konsa, li te ba li nan maryaj, sè a pwòp madanm li, sè a Thachpenès, rèn nan.
And Ader found great favour in the sight of Pharao, and he gave him his wife's sister in marriage, the elder sister of Thekemina.
20 Sè a Thachpenès la te fè fis li, Guenubath, ke Thachpenès te sevre lakay Farawon pami fis a Farawon yo.
And the sister of Thekemina bore to him, [even] to Ader, Ganebath her son; and Thekemina brought him up in the midst of the sons of Pharao, and Ganebath was in the midst of the sons of Pharao.
21 Men lè Hadad te tande an Égypte ke David te dòmi avèk zansèt li yo, e ke Joab, chèf lame a te mouri, Hadad te di a Farawon: “Voye mwen ale, pou m kab rive nan pwòp peyi pa mwen.”
And Ader heard in Egypt that David slept with his fathers, and that Joab the captain of the host was dead; and Ader said to Pharao, Let me go, and I will return to my country.
22 Alò, Farawon te di li: “Men kisa ou te manke avè m, ke konsa, w ap chache ale nan pwòp peyi pa ou?” Li te reponn li: “Anyen: men anverite, fòk ou kite mwen ale.”
And Pharao said to Ader, What lackest thou with me? that lo! thou seekest to depart to thy country? and Ader said to him, By all means let me go.
23 Bondye te osi leve yon lòt lènmi a li menm, Rezon, fis a Éliada a, ki te sove ale devan Chèf li, Hadadézer wa Tsoba a.
So Ader returned to his country; this [is] the mischief which Ader did, and he was a bitter enemy of Israel, and he reigned in the land of Edom.
24 Li te ranmase moun vè li menm pou te devni chèf a yon twoup bandi mawon. Apre David te vin touye yo nan Tsoba, yo te deplase a Damas pou rete la e te renye Damas.
25 Konsa, li te lènmi a Israël pou tout jou a Salomon yo, ansanm avèk mechanste ke Hadad te fè yo. Li te rayi Israël e li te renye sou Syrie.
26 Alò, Jéroboam, fis a Nebath la, yon Efratyen nan Tseréda, yon sèvitè a Salomon, manman a sila ki te rele Tserua a, yon vèv, li osi te fè rebèl kont wa a.
And Jeroboam the son of Nabat, the Ephrathite of Sarira, the son of a widow, [was] servant of Solomon.
27 Alò, se te pou rezon sa ke li te fè rebèl kont wa a: Salomon te bati sitadèl Millo, e li te fèmen brèch nan lavil papa l la, David.
And this [was] the occasion of his lifting up [his] hands against king Solomon: now king Solomon built the citadel, he completed the fortification of the city of David his father.
28 Alò, Jéroboam te yon gèrye vanyan e lè Salomon te wè ke jennonm nan te travay byen, li te chwazi li sou tout kòvey lakay Joseph yo.
And the man Jeroboam was very strong; and Solomon saw the young man that he was active, and he set him over the levies of the house of Joseph.
29 Li te vin rive vè lè sa a, lè Jéroboam te kite Jérusalem, ke pwofèt la, Achija, te mete yon manto nèf sou li; epi yo de a te rankontre ansanm san lòt moun nan mitan chan an.
And it came to pass at that time, that Jeroboam went forth from Jerusalem, and Achia the Selonite the prophet found him in the way, and caused him to turn aside out of the way: and Achia was clad with a new garment, and they two [were] alone in the field.
30 Alò, Achija te sezi kenbe manto nèf ki te sou li a, e li te chire li nan douz mòso.
And Achia laid hold of his new garment that was upon him, and tore it [into] twelve pieces:
31 Li te di a Jéroboam: “Pran pou ou menm dis mòso; paske konsa pale SENYÈ a, Bondye Israël la: ‘Gade byen, Mwen va chire wayòm nan sòti nan men Salomon, e ba ou dis tribi
and he said to Jeroboam, Take to thyself ten pieces, for thus saith the Lord God of Israel, Behold, I rend the kingdom out of the hand of Solomon, and will give thee ten tribes.
32 (men li va gen yon tribi pou koz sèvitè Mwen an, David, ak pou koz Jérusalem, vil ke M te chwazi soti nan tout tribi Israël yo),
Yet he shall have two tribes, for my servant David's sake, and for the sake of Jerusalem, the city which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel.
33 akoz yo te abandone Mwen e te adore Astarté deyès a Sidonyen yo, Kemosh, dye a Moab la ak Milcom, dye a fis Ammon yo. Epi yo pa t mache nan vwa Mwen yo, pou fè sa ki dwat nan zye M, e swiv règleman Mwen yo avèk òdonans Mwen yo, jan papa li, David te fè a.
Because he forsook me, and sacrificed to Astarte the abomination of the Sidonians, and to Chamos, and to the idols of Moab, and to their king the abomination of the children of Ammon, and he walked not in my ways, to do that which was right before me, as David his father [did].
34 “‘Sepandan, Mwen p ap pran tout wayòm nan sòti nan men l, men Mwen va fè li chèf pandan tout jou lavi li, pou koz David, ke Mwen te chwazi, ki te swiv kòmandman Mwen yo avèk règleman Mwen yo,
Howbeit I will not take the whole kingdom out of his hand, (for I will certainly resist him all the days of his life, ) for David my servant's sake, whom I have chosen.
35 men Mwen va rache wayòm nan nan men fis li pou bay ou, menm dis tribi.
But I will take the kingdom out of the hand of his son, and give thee ten tribes.
36 Men a fis li yo, mwen va bay yon tribi, pou sèvitè Mwen an, David kab toujou gen yon lanp devan Mwen nan Jérusalem, vil kote Mwen te chwazi pou Mwen menm nan pou mete non Mwen an.
But to his son I will give the two [remaining] tribes, that my servant David may have an establishment continually before me in Jerusalem, the city which I have chosen for myself to put my name there.
37 Mwen va pran ou e ou va renye sou nenpòt sa ou vle e ou va wa sou Israël.
And I will take thee, and thou shalt reign as thy soul desires, and thou shalt be king over Israel.
38 Epi li va ye, ke si ou koute tout sa ke M kòmande ou, mache nan vwa Mwen yo, fè sa ki dwat nan zye Mwen, e swiv règleman Mwen yo avèk kòmandman Mwen yo jan sèvitè Mwen David te fè a, alò, Mwen va avèk ou pou bati pou ou yon kay k ap dire, jis jan ke M te bati pou David la, e Mwen va bay Israël a ou menm.
And it shall come to pass, if thou wilt keep all the commandments that I shall give thee, and wilt walk in my ways, and do that which is right before me, to keep my ordinances and my commandments, as David my servant did, that I will be with thee, and will build thee a sure house, as I built to David.
39 Konsa, Mwen va aflije desandan a David yo pou sa, men pa pou tout tan.’”
40 Akoz sa, Salomon te chache mete Jéroboam a lanmò, men Jéroboam te leve e te sove ale rive an Égypte kote Schischak, wa Égypte la, e li te rete an Égypte jiska lanmò Salomon.
And Solomon sought to slay Jeroboam: but he arose and fled into Egypt, to Susakim king of Egypt, and he was in Egypt until Solomon died.
41 Alò tout lòt zèv a Salomon yo ak tout sa li te fè ak sajès li, èske yo pa ekri nan liv a zèv Salomon yo?
And the rest of the history of Solomon, and all that he did, and all his wisdom, behold are not these things written in the book of the life of Solomon?
42 Konsa, tan ke Salomon te renye Jérusalem sou tout Israël la se te karantan.
And the days [during] which Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel [were] forty years.
43 Epi Salomon te dòmi avèk zansèt li yo, e li te antere nan vil a papa li, David e fis li a, Roboam te renye nan plas li.
And Solomon slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David his father, and Roboam his son reigned in his stead.
