1 Kingi 11
1 Otiia he tini nga wahine ke i arohaina e Kingi Horomona, he Moapi, he Amoni, he Eromi, he Haironi, he Hiti, me te tamahine ano a Parao;
Now King Solomon loved many foreign women, together with the daughter of Pharaoh: women of the Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, Sidonians, and Hittites,
2 No nga iwi i mea ra a Ihowa ki nga tama a Iharaira, kaua e haere atu ki a ratou, kaua hoki ratou e haere mai ki a koutou: he pono ma ratou o koutou ngakau e whakaanga ke ki te whai i o ratou atua: piri tonu, aroha tonu a Horomona ki enei.
of the nations concerning which Yahweh said to the children of Israel, “You shall not go among them, neither shall they come among you, for surely they will turn away your heart after their gods.” Solomon joined to these in love.
3 Na e whitu rau ana wahine rangatira, e toru rau nga wahine iti: a whakaanga ketia ana tona ngakau e ana wahine.
He had seven hundred wives, princesses, and three hundred concubines. His wives turned his heart away.
4 Na, koroheke rawa ake a Horomona, kua whakaanga ketia tona ngakau e ana wahine, kua whai i nga atua ke; kihai hoki tona ngakau i tapatahi ki a Ihowa, ki tona Atua, kihai i rite ki te ngakau o Rawiri, o tona papa.
When Solomon was old, his wives turned away his heart after other gods; and his heart was not perfect with Yahweh his God, as the heart of David his father was.
5 I haere hoki a Horomona i whai i a Ahatorete atua o nga Haironi, i a Mirikomo hoki, i te mea whakarihariha a nga Amoni.
For Solomon went after Ashtoreth the goddess of the Sidonians, and after Milcom the abomination of the Ammonites.
6 Na kua he ta Horomona mahi ki te aroaro o Ihowa, kihai hoki i anga nui ki te whai i a Ihowa, kihai i pera me tona papa, me Rawiri.
Solomon did that which was evil in Yahweh’s sight, and didn’t go fully after Yahweh, as David his father did.
7 Na ka hanga e Horomona he wahi tiketike mo ta Moapa mea whakarihariha, mo Kemoho, ki runga ki te maunga e anga ana ki Hiruharama; mo Moreke hoki, mo te mea whakarihariha a nga tama a Amona.
Then Solomon built a high place for Chemosh the abomination of Moab, on the mountain that is before Jerusalem, and for Molech the abomination of the children of Ammon.
8 Pera tonu tana i mea ai mo ana wahine ke katoa, i tahu whakakakara nei, i patu whakahere hoki ki o ratou atua.
So he did for all his foreign wives, who burned incense and sacrificed to their gods.
9 Na ka riri a Ihowa ki a Horomona, no te mea kua anga ke tona ngakau i a Ihowa, i te Atua o Iharaira, ka rua nei ona putanga ki a ia,
Yahweh was angry with Solomon, because his heart was turned away from Yahweh, the God of Israel, who had appeared to him twice,
10 Me te ako i tenei kupu ki a ia kia kaua ia e haere ki te whai i nga atua ke: otiia kihai i mau i a ia ta Ihowa i whakahau ai.
and had commanded him concerning this thing, that he should not go after other gods; but he didn’t keep that which Yahweh commanded.
11 Na reira ka mea a Ihowa ki a Horomona, I te mea ka penei tau mahi, kahore nei i mau i a koe taku kawenata me taku tikanga i akona e ahau ki a koe, ka haea rawatia atu e ahau te kingitanga i a koe, a ka hoatu ki tau tangata.
Therefore Yahweh said to Solomon, “Because this is done by you, and you have not kept my covenant and my statutes, which I have commanded you, I will surely tear the kingdom from you, and will give it to your servant.
12 Otiia e kore tenei e meatia e ahau i ou ra, he whakaaro hoki ki tou papa, ki a Rawiri: ka haea atu ia e ahau i te ringa o tau tama.
Nevertheless, I will not do it in your days, for David your father’s sake; but I will tear it out of your son’s hand.
13 Otiia e kore e haea atu e ahau te kingitanga katoa; kotahi te iwi e hoatu e ahau ki tau tama, he whakaaro ki a Rawiri, ki taku pononga, ki Hiruharama i whiriwhiria nei e ahau.
However, I will not tear away all the kingdom; but I will give one tribe to your son, for David my servant’s sake, and for Jerusalem’s sake which I have chosen.”
14 Na ka whakaarahia ake e Ihowa he hoariri mo Horomona, ko Harara Eromi: he uri ia no te kingi i Eroma.
Yahweh raised up an adversary to Solomon: Hadad the Edomite. He was one of the king’s offspring in Edom.
15 Tera, i a Rawiri i Eroma, ka haere atu a Ioapa rangatira o te ope ki te tanu i te hunga i patua, kua oti hoki nga tane katoa o Eroma te patu e ia;
For when David was in Edom, and Joab the captain of the army had gone up to bury the slain, and had struck every male in Edom
16 E ono hoki nga marama i noho ai a Ioapa ratou ko Iharaira katoa ki reira, a poto noa nga tane katoa o Eroma te hautope atu;
(for Joab and all Israel remained there six months, until he had cut off every male in Edom),
17 Na ka rere a Harara ratou ko etahi Eromi, he tangata na tona papa, haere ana ki Ihipa: a e nohinohi tonu ana a Harara.
Hadad fled, he and certain Edomites of his father’s servants with him, to go into Egypt, when Hadad was still a little child.
18 A ka whakatika atu ratou i Miriana, a ka tae ki Parana: na ka tangohia e ratou etahi tangata o Parana hei hoa mo ratou, a haere ana ki Ihipa ki a Parao kingi o Ihipa; a na tera i hoatu he whare mona, i whakarite he kai mana; i hoatu ano he whenu a ki a ia.
They arose out of Midian and came to Paran; and they took men with them out of Paran, and they came to Egypt, to Pharaoh king of Egypt, who gave him a house, and appointed him food, and gave him land.
19 Na ka manakohia nuitia a Harara e Parao, a hoatu ana e ia hei wahine mana te teina o tana wahine ake, te teina o te Kuini, o Tahapene.
Hadad found great favor in the sight of Pharaoh, so that he gave him as wife the sister of his own wife, the sister of Tahpenes the queen.
20 Na ka whanau he tama mana i te teina o Tahapene, ko Kenupata, a na Tahapene ano i whakamutu tana kai u i roto i te whare o Parao: na noho ana a Kenupata i te whare o Parao i roto i nga tama a Parao.
The sister of Tahpenes bore him Genubath his son, whom Tahpenes weaned in Pharaoh’s house; and Genubath was in Pharaoh’s house among the sons of Pharaoh.
21 A, i te rongonga o Harara i Ihipa, kua takoto a Rawiri ki ona matua, kua mate hoki a Ioapa rangatira ope, ka mea a Harara ki a Parao, Tukua ahau kia haere ki toku whenua.
When Hadad heard in Egypt that David slept with his fathers, and that Joab the captain of the army was dead, Hadad said to Pharaoh, “Let me depart, that I may go to my own country.”
22 Na ka mea a Parao ki a ia, I hapa koe i te aha i a koe i ahau nei, i whai ai koe kia haere ki tou whenua? Na ko tana kianga, Kahore: he ahakoa ra tukua ahau kia haere.
Then Pharaoh said to him, “But what have you lacked with me, that behold, you seek to go to your own country?” He answered, “Nothing, however only let me depart.”
23 I ara ano i te Atua he hoariri mona, a Retona tama a Eriara, i rere nei i tona ariki i a Hararetere kingi o Topa.
God raised up an adversary to him, Rezon the son of Eliada, who had fled from his lord, Hadadezer king of Zobah.
24 Na ka huihuia e ia etahi tangata, a ka meinga ia hei rangatira ropu, i te mea e patua ana ratou e Rawiri: na haere ana ratou ki Ramahiku, a noho ana i reira, a ko ratou hei kingi mo Ramahiku.
He gathered men to himself, and became captain over a troop, when David killed them of Zobah. They went to Damascus and lived there, and reigned in Damascus.
25 A he hoariri ia ki a Iharaira i nga ra katoa o Horomona, haunga hoki ta Harara kino i mea ai: heoi whakarihariha ana ia ki a Iharaira, ko ia ano te kingi o Hiria.
He was an adversary to Israel all the days of Solomon, in addition to the mischief of Hadad. He abhorred Israel, and reigned over Syria.
26 Me Ieropoama ano tama a Nepata, he Eparati, no Terera, he tangata na Horomona, ko te ingoa o tona whaea, ko Terua, he wahine pouaru, i ara ano tona ringa ki te kingi.
Jeroboam the son of Nebat, an Ephraimite of Zeredah, a servant of Solomon, whose mother’s name was Zeruah, a widow, also lifted up his hand against the king.
27 A ko te take tenei i ara ai tona ringa ki te kingi: e hanga ana a Horomona i Miro, e tutaki ana i nga wahi pakaru o te pa o tona papa, o Rawiri.
This was the reason why he lifted up his hand against the king: Solomon built Millo, and repaired the breach of his father David’s city.
28 Na he marohirohi a Ieropoama, he toa: a ka kite a Horomona i taua taitama he uaua ki te mahi, na meinga ana ia e ia hei kaitirotiro mo nga mahi katoa a te whare o Hohepa.
The man Jeroboam was a mighty man of valor; and Solomon saw the young man that he was industrious, and he put him in charge of all the labor of the house of Joseph.
29 Na i taua wa ka puta a Ieropoama i Hiruharama, a ka tutaki a Ahia Hironi, te poropiti ki a ia i te ara; na kua kakahuria e Ahia he kakahu hou; a ko raua tokorua anake i te parae.
At that time, when Jeroboam went out of Jerusalem, the prophet Ahijah the Shilonite found him on the way. Now Ahijah had clad himself with a new garment; and the two of them were alone in the field.
30 Na ka hopukia e Ahia tona kakahu hou, haea ana kia tekau ma rua nga wahi:
Ahijah took the new garment that was on him, and tore it in twelve pieces.
31 A ka mea atu ia ki a Ieropoama, kia tekau nga wahi e tangohia e koe mau: ko te kupu hoki tenei a Ihowa, a te Atua o Iharaira, Nana, ka haea e ahau te kingitanga i te ringa o Horomona, a tekau nga iwi e hoatu ki a koe;
He said to Jeroboam, “Take ten pieces; for Yahweh, the God of Israel, says, ‘Behold, I will tear the kingdom out of the hand of Solomon and will give ten tribes to you
32 Kotahi ia te iwi mana; he whakaaro ki taku pononga, ki a Rawiri, he whakaaro ki Hiruharama, ki te pa i whiriwhiria e ahau i roto i nga iwi katoa o Iharaira;
(but he shall have one tribe, for my servant David’s sake and for Jerusalem’s sake, the city which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel),
33 Mo ratou i whakarere i ahau, a koropiko ana ki a Ahatorete atua o nga Haironi, ki a Kemoho atua o nga Moapi, ki a Mirikomo atua o nga tama a Amona; kihai hoki i haere i aku ara, i mahi i te mea tika ki taku titiro, i pupuri hoki i aku tikanga, i aku whakaritenga, a kihai i pera me tona papa, me Rawiri.
because they have forsaken me, and have worshiped Ashtoreth the goddess of the Sidonians, Chemosh the god of Moab, and Milcom the god of the children of Ammon. They have not walked in my ways, to do that which is right in my eyes, and to keep my statutes and my ordinances, as David his father did.
34 Otiia e kore e tangohia e ahau te kingitanga katoa i tona ringa; engari ka whakarangatira ahau i a ia i nga ra katoa e ora ai ia, he whakaaro ki taku pononga, ki a Rawiri, i whiriwhiria nei e ahau, mona i pupuri i aku whakahau, i aku tikanga.
“‘However, I will not take the whole kingdom out of his hand, but I will make him prince all the days of his life for David my servant’s sake whom I chose, who kept my commandments and my statutes,
35 Engari ka tangohia e ahau te kingitanga i te ringa o tana tama, a ka hoatu ki a koe, ara tekau nga iwi.
but I will take the kingdom out of his son’s hand and will give it to you, even ten tribes.
36 Kotahi te iwi e hoatu e ahau ki tana tama, hei rama ma taku pononga, ma Rawiri ki toku aroaro i nga ra katoa ki Hiruharama, ki te pa i whiriwhiria e ahau hei waihotanga iho mo toku ingoa.
I will give one tribe to his son, that David my servant may have a lamp always before me in Jerusalem, the city which I have chosen for myself to put my name there.
37 A ka tangohia koe e ahau, a hei kingi koe, ka rite ki nga mea katoa i hiahia ai tou ngakau, a hei kingi koe mo Iharaira.
I will take you, and you shall reign according to all that your soul desires, and shall be king over Israel.
38 Na, tenei ake, ki te rongo koe i nga mea katoa e whakahau ai ahau ki a koe, a ka haere i aku ara, ka mahi i te mea e tika ana ki taku titiro, ka pupuri i aku tikanga, i aku whakahau, ka pera me ta taku pononga, me ta Rawiri i mea ai, na hei hoa ahau mou, ka hanga hoki e ahau tou whare kia pumau, ka peratia me to Rawiri i hanga ra e ahau; a ka hoatu a Iharaira ki a koe.
It shall be, if you will listen to all that I command you, and will walk in my ways, and do that which is right in my eyes, to keep my statutes and my commandments, as David my servant did, that I will be with you, and will build you a sure house, as I built for David, and will give Israel to you.
39 A ka whakawhiua e ahau nga uri o Rawiri mo tenei mea nei; otiia ehara i te mea mo ake tonu atu.
I will afflict the offspring of David for this, but not forever.’”
40 Na ka whai a Horomona kia whakamatea a Ieropoama; otiia i whakatika a Ieropoama, a rere ana ki Ihipa, ki a Hihaka kingi o Ihipa, a i Ihipa ia a mate noa a Horomona.
Therefore Solomon sought to kill Jeroboam, but Jeroboam arose and fled into Egypt, to Shishak king of Egypt, and was in Egypt until the death of Solomon.
41 Na, ko era atu mahi a Horomona, ko nga mea katoa i mea ai ia, me ona whakaaro nui, kahore ianei i tuhituhia ki te pukapuka o nga mahi a Horomona?
Now the rest of the acts of Solomon, and all that he did, and his wisdom, aren’t they written in the book of the acts of Solomon?
42 Na, ko te roa o te kingitanga o Horomona ki Hiruharama ki a Iharaira katoa, e wha tekau tau.
The time that Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel was forty years.
43 Na ka moe a Horomona ki ona matua, a tanumia ana ki te pa o Rawiri, o tona papa; a ko Rehopoama, ko tana tama, te kingi i muri i a ia.
Solomon slept with his fathers, and was buried in his father David’s city; and Rehoboam his son reigned in his place.
