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 has loved many strange women, and the daughter of Pharaoh, females of Moab, Ammon, Edom, Sidon, [and] of the Hittites,
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 of which YHWH said to the sons of Israel, “You do not go in to them, and they do not go in to you; surely they turn aside your heart after their gods”; Solomon has cleaved to them for love.
3 Li te gen sèt-san prensès kòm madanm, twa-san ti mennaj e madanm li yo te vire kè li lwen.
And he has seven hundred wives, princesses, and three hundred concubines; and his wives turn aside his heart.
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 comes to pass, at the time of Solomon’s old age, his wives have turned aside his heart after other gods, and his heart has not been perfect with his God YHWH, like the heart of his father David.
5 Paske Salomon te kouri dèyè Astarté deyès a Sidonyen yo e apre Milcom, zidòl abominab a Amonit yo.
And Solomon goes after Ashtoreth goddess of the Zidonians, and after Milcom the abomination of the Ammonites;
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 Solomon does evil in the eyes of YHWH, and has not been fully after YHWH, like his father David.
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.
Then Solomon builds 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 te fè pou tout madanm etranje li yo. Li te brile lansan e fè sakrifis a dye pa yo.
and so he has done for all his strange women, who are perfuming and sacrificing to their gods.
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 YHWH shows Himself angry with Solomon, for his heart has turned aside from YHWH, God of Israel, who had appeared to him twice,
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 given a charge to him concerning this thing, not to go after other gods; and he has not kept that which YHWH commanded,
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 YHWH says to Solomon, “Because that this has been with you, and you have not kept My covenant and My statutes that I charged on you, I surely tear the kingdom from you, and have given it to your 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, I do not do it in your days, for the sake of your father David; I tear it out of the hand of your 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 do not tear away all of the kingdom; I give one tribe to your son, for the sake of My servant David, and for the sake of Jerusalem that 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 YHWH raises up an adversary against Solomon, Hadad the Edomite; he [is] of the seed of the king in Edom;
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 comes to pass, in David’s being with Edom, in the going up of Joab head of the host to bury the slain, that he strikes every male in Edom—
16 (paske Joab avèk tout Israël te rete la pandan si mwa, jiskaske li te koupe, fè desann tout gason nan Édom yo.)
for six months Joab abided there, and all Israel, until the cutting off of every male in Edom—
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.
and Hadad flees, he and certain Edomites, of the servants of his father, with him, to go to Egypt, and Hadad [is] a little youth,
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 they rise out of Midian, and come into Paran, and take men with them out of Paran, and come into Egypt, to Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he gives a house to him, and has commanded bread for him, and has given land to him.
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 Hadad finds grace in the eyes of Pharaoh exceedingly, and he gives to him a wife, the sister of his own wife, sister of Tahpenes the mistress;
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 Tahpenes bears to him his son Genubath, and Tahpenes weans him within the house of Pharaoh, and Genubath is in the house of Pharaoh in the midst of the sons of Pharaoh.
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 Hadad has heard in Egypt that David has lain with his fathers, and that Joab head of the host is dead, and Hadad says to Pharaoh, “Send me away, and I go to my land.”
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 Pharaoh says to him, “But what are you lacking with me, that behold, you are seeking to go to your own land?” And he says, “Nothing, but you certainly send me away.”
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.
And God raises an adversary against him, Rezon son of Eliadah, who has fled from Hadadezer king of Zobah, his lord,
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.
and gathers men to himself, 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 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.
and he is an adversary against Israel all the days of Solomon (besides the evil that Hadad [did]), and he cuts off in Israel, and reigns over Aram.
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 son of Nebat, an Ephraimite of Zereda—the name of whose mother [is] Zeruah, a widow woman—servant to Solomon, he also lifts up a hand against the king;
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 [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 his father David,
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 [is] mighty in valor, and Solomon sees that the young man is doing business, and appoints him over all the burden 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 comes to pass, at that time, that Jeroboam has gone out from Jerusalem, and Ahijah the Shilonite, the prophet, finds him in the way, and he is covering himself with a new garment; and both of them [are] by themselves in a field,
30 Alò, Achija te sezi kenbe manto nèf ki te sou li a, e li te chire li nan douz mòso.
and Ahijah lays hold on the new garment that [is] on him, and tears 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 says to Jeroboam, “Take ten pieces for yourself, for thus said YHWH, God of Israel: Behold, I am tearing the kingdom out of the hand of Solomon, and have given the ten tribes to you,
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),
but he has the one tribe 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 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 they have forsaken Me, and bow themselves to Ashtoreth, goddess 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 My eyes, and My statutes and My judgments, like his father David.
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,
And I do not take the whole of the kingdom out of his hand, for I make him prince all [the] days of his life, for the sake of My servant David whom I chose, who kept My commands and My statutes;
35 men Mwen va rache wayòm nan nan men fis li pou bay ou, menm dis tribi.
and I have taken the kingdom out of the hand of his son, and given it to you—the 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.
and to his son I give one tribe, for there being a lamp before Me for My servant David in Jerusalem [for] all the days, the city that 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 take you, and you have reigned over all that your soul desires, and you have been 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 has been, if you hear all that I command you, and have walked in My ways, and done that which is right in My eyes, to keep My statutes and My commands, as My servant David did, that I have been with you, and have built a steadfast house for you, as I built for David, and have given Israel to you,
39 Konsa, Mwen va aflije desandan a David yo pou sa, men pa pou tout tan.’”
and I humble the seed of David for this; only, not [for] all the days.”
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 seeks to put Jeroboam to death, and Jeroboam rises and flees to Egypt, to Shishak king of Egypt, and he is in Egypt until the death of Solomon.
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 matters of Solomon, and all that he did, and his wisdom, are they not written on the scroll of the matters of Solomon?
42 Konsa, tan ke Salomon te renye Jérusalem sou tout Israël la se te karantan.
And the days that Solomon has reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel [are] 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 lies with his fathers, and is buried in the city of his father David, and his son Rehoboam reigns in his stead.
