1 Kraljevima 11
1 Ali car Solomun ljubljaše mnoge žene tuðinke osim kæeri Faraonove, Moavke, Amonke, Edomke, Sidonke i Hetejke,
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].
2 Od onijeh naroda za koje bješe rekao Gospod sinovima Izrailjevijem: ne idite k njima i oni da ne dolaze k vama, jer æe zanijeti srce vaše za svojim bogovima. Za njih prionu Solomun ljubeæi ih.
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!”
3 Te imaše žena carica sedam stotina, i tri stotine inoèa; i žene njegove zanesoše srce njegovo.
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].
4 I kad ostarje Solomun, žene zanesoše srce njegovo za tuðim bogovima; i srce njegovo ne bi cijelo prema Gospodu Bogu njegovu kao što je bilo srce Davida oca njegova.
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.
5 I Solomun hoðaše za Astarotom, boginjom Sidonskom, i za Melhomom, gadom Amonskim.
Solomon worshiped Astarte, the goddess that the people of Sidon [worshiped], and he worshiped Molech, the disgusting god that the Ammon people-group [worshiped].
6 I èinjaše Solomun što bješe zlo pred Gospodom, i ne hoðaše sasvijem za Gospodom kao David otac njegov.
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.
7 Tada sagradi Solomun visinu Hemosu, gadu Moavskom, na gori prema Jerusalimu, i Molohu gadu Amonskom.
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].
8 Tako uèini svijem ženama tuðinkama, te kaðahu i prinošahu žrtve svojim bogovima.
He also built places where all his foreign wives could burn incense and offer sacrifices to the gods from their own countries.
9 A Gospod se razgnjevi na Solomuna što se odvrati srce njegovo od Gospoda Boga Izrailjeva, koji mu se bješe javio dva puta.
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,
10 I bješe mu zapovjedio da ne ide za drugim bogovima, a on ne održa što mu Gospod zapovjedi.
11 I reèe Gospod Solomunu: što se to naðe na tebi, i nijesi držao zavjeta mojega ni uredaba mojih, koje sam ti zapovjedio, zato æu otrgnuti od tebe carstvo i daæu ga sluzi tvojemu.
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.
12 Ali za tvojega vijeka neæu to uèiniti radi Davida oca tvojega; nego æu ga otrgnuti iz ruku sina tvojega,
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].
13 Ali neæu otrgnuti svega carstva; jedno æu pleme dati sinu tvojemu radi Davida sluge svojega i radi Jerusalima, koji izabrah.
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].”
14 I podiže Gospod protivnika Solomunu, Adada Idumejca, koji bijaše od carskoga roda u Idumeji.
Yahweh caused Hadad, from the family of the kings in the Edom people-group, to rebel against Solomon.
15 Jer kad David bijaše u Idumeji i Joav vojvoda doðe da pokopa pobijene, pobi sve muškinje u Idumeji.
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.
16 Jer Joav osta ondje šest mjeseca sa svijem Izrailjem dokle ne pobi sve muškinje u Idumeji.
17 Tada uteèe Adad s nekoliko Idumejaca sluga oca svojega, i otide u Misir; a Adad bješe tada dijete.
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.
18 I otišavši iz Madijama doðoše u Faran; i uzevši sa sobom ljudi iz Farana doðoše u Misir k Faraonu caru Misirskom, koji mu dade kuæu i odredi mu hranu, a dade mu i zemlje.
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.
19 I Adad naðe veliku milost u Faraona, te ga oženi sestrom žene svoje, sestrom carice Tahpenese.
The king liked Hadad. As a result he gave him the sister of his own wife, Queen Tahpenes, to be Hadad’s wife.
20 I sestra Tahpenesina rodi mu sina Genuvata, kojega othrani Tahpenesa u dvoru Faraonovu, i bješe Genuvat u dvoru Faraonovu meðu sinovima Faraonovijem.
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.
21 A kad Adad èu u Misiru da je David poèinuo kod otaca svojih i da je umro Joav vojvoda, reèe Adad Faraonu: pusti me da idem u svoju zemlju.
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.”
22 A Faraon mu reèe: a šta ti je malo kod mene, te hoæeš da ideš u svoju zemlju? A on reèe: ništa; ali me pusti.
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].
23 Podiže mu Bog još jednoga protivnika, Rezona sina Elijadina, koji bješe pobjegao od gospodara svojega Adadezera cara Sovskoga.
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].
24 I skupiv k sebi ljude posta starješina od èete kad ih David ubijaše; potom otišavši u Damask ostaše ondje i obladaše Damaskom.
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.
25 I bješe protivnik Izrailjev svega vijeka Solomunova, i to osim zla koje èinjaše Adad; i mržaše na Izrailja carujuæi u Siriji.
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.
26 I Jerovoam sin Navatov Efraæanin iz Saride, èija mati bješe po imenu Seruja žena udovica, sluga Solomunov, podiže se na cara.
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.
27 A ovo bi uzrok zašto se podiže na cara: Solomun graðaše Milon i zaziðivaše prolom grada Davida oca svojega;
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].
28 A Jerovoam bijaše krjepak i hrabar; zato videæi Solomun mladiæa da nastaje za poslom postavi ga nad svijem dancima doma Josifova.
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.
29 Pa u to vrijeme kad Jerovoam otide iz Jerusalima, naðe ga na putu Ahija Silomljanin prorok imajuæi na sebi novu haljinu, i bijahu njih dvojica sami u polju.
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,
30 I Ahija uze novu haljinu koja bješe na njemu, i razdrije je na dvanaest komada.
which he took off and tore into twelve pieces.
31 I reèe Jerovoamu: uzmi deset komada; jer ovako veli Gospod Bog Izrailjev: evo istrgnuæu carstvo iz ruke Solomunove, i daæu tebi deset plemena.
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].
32 Samo æe jedno pleme ostati njemu radi sluge mojega Davida i radi grada Jerusalima, koji izabrah izmeðu svijeh plemena Izrailjevih.
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].
33 Jer ostaviše mene i pokloniše se Astaroti boginji Sidonskoj i Hemosu bogu Moavskom i Melhomu bogu sinova Amonovijeh, i ne hodiše putovima mojim èineæi što je pravo preda mnom, uredbe moje i zakone moje, kao David otac njegov.
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.
34 Ali neæu uzeti carstva iz ruku njegovijeh, nego æu ga ostaviti neka vlada dokle je god živ Davida radi sluge svojega, kojega izabrah, koji je držao zapovijesti moje i uredbe moje.
‘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.
35 Nego æu uzeti carstvo iz ruku sina njegova, i daæu tebi od njega deset plemena.
But I will take the [other] ten tribes of his kingdom and give them to you [to rule].
36 A sinu æu njegovu dati jedno pleme da bude vidjelo Davidu sluzi mojemu vazda preda mnom u gradu Jerusalimu, koji izabrah da u njemu namjestim ime svoje.
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].
37 Tebe æu dakle uzeti da caruješ nad svijem što ti duša želi, i biæeš car nad Izrailjem.
I will enable you to become the king of Israel, and you will rule over all the territory that you want to.
38 I ako uzaslušaš sve što ti zapovjedim, i uzideš mojim putovima i ušèiniš što je pravo preda mnom, držeæi uredbe moje i zapovijesti moje, kao što je èinio David sluga moj, biæu s tobom i sazidaæu ti tvrd dom, kao što sam sazidao Davidu, i daæu ti Izrailja.
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.
39 I muèiæu sjeme Davidovo za to, ali ne svagda.
Because of [Solomon’s sins], I will punish David’s descendants, but I will not continue to punish them forever.’”
40 Zato tražaše Solomun da ubije Jerovoama; ali se Jerovoam podiže i pobježe u Misir k Sisaku caru Misirskom, i bi u Misiru dok ne umrije Solomun.
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.
41 A ostala djela Solomunova i što je god èinio, i mudrost njegova, nije li to zapisano u knjizi djela Solomunovijeh?
[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.
42 A carova Solomun u Jerusalimu nad svijem Izrailjem èetrdeset godina.
He was the king in Jerusalem who ruled over all of Israel for 40 years.
43 I poèinu Solomun kod otaca svojih, i bi pogreben u gradu Davida oca svojega; a Rovoam sin njegov zacari se na njegovo mjesto.
Then Solomon died [EUP], and was buried in the [part of Jerusalem called] ‘The City of David’. And his son Rehoboam became the king.
