1 Tuʻi 11

1 Ka naʻe ʻofa ʻa Solomone ki he kau fefine tokolahi ʻoe kakai kehe, fakataha mo e ʻofefine ʻo Felo, ko e kau fefine mei Moape, mo ʻAmoni, mo ʻItomi, mo Saitoni, pea mo Heti;

Bvt King Salomon loued many outlandish women: both the daughter of Pharaoh, and the women of Moab, Ammon, Edom, Zidon and Heth,

2 Ko e ngaahi puleʻanga naʻe pehē ai ʻe Sihova ki he fānau ʻa ʻIsileli, ʻE ʻikai te mou hū atu kiate kinautolu, pea ʻe ʻikai te nau hū mai kiate kimoutolu: he ko e moʻoni te nau liliu homou loto ke muimui ki honau ngaahi ʻotua: naʻe pikitai ʻa Solomone kiate kinautolu ni ʻi he mamana ki ai.

Of the nations, whereof the Lord had sayd vnto the children of Israel, Goe not ye in to them, nor let them come in to you: for surely they will turne your hearts after their gods, to them, I say, did Salomon ioyne in loue.

3 Pea naʻa ne maʻu ʻae uaifi ʻe fitungeau naʻe ʻeiki lahi, pea mo e sinifu ʻe toko tolungeau: pea naʻe fakatafoki hono loto ʻe hono ngaahi uaifi.

And he had seuen hundreth wiues, that were princesses, and three hundreth concubines, and his wiues turned away his heart.

4 He naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene fakaʻaʻau ʻo motuʻa ʻa Solomone, naʻe fakatafoki ʻa hono loto ʻe hono ngaahi uaifi ke muimui ki he ngaahi ʻotua kehe: pea naʻe ʻikai haohaoa hono loto ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova ko hono ʻOtua, ʻo hangē ko e loto ʻo Tevita ko ʻene tamai.

For when Salomon was olde, his wiues turned his heart after other gods, so that his heart was not perfect with the Lord his God, as was the heart of Dauid his father.

5 He naʻe muimui ʻa Solomone ki he ʻotua fefine ʻoe kakai Saitoni ko ʻAsitelote, pea kia Milikomi ko e meʻa fakalielia ʻae kakai ʻAmoni.

For Salomon followed Ashtaroth the god of the Zidonians, and Milcom the abomination of the Ammonites.

6 Pea naʻe fai kovi ʻa Solomone ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova, pea naʻe ʻikai muimui haohaoa ia kia Sihova, ʻo hangē ko Tevita ko ʻene tamai.

So Salomon wrought wickednesse in the sight of the Lord, but continued not to follow the Lord, as did Dauid his father.

7 Pea naʻe langa ai ʻe Solomone ha potu māʻolunga kia Kimosi, ko e meʻa fakalielia ʻa Moape, ʻi he moʻunga ʻoku hanga ki Selūsalema, pea maʻa Moleki, ko e meʻa fakalielia ʻi he fānau ʻa ʻAmoni.

Then did Salomon build an hie place for Chemosh the abomination of Moab, in the mountaine that is ouer against Ierusalem, and vnto Molech the abomination of the children of Ammon.

8 Pea naʻa ne fai pehē foki maʻa hono ngaahi uaifi mei he kakai kehe, ʻaia naʻe tutu meʻa namu kakala mo fai feilaulau ki honau ngaahi ʻotua.

And so did he for all his outlandish wiues, which burnt incense and offered vnto their gods.

9 Pea naʻe houhau ʻa Sihova kia Solomone, koeʻuhi naʻe fakatafoki ʻa hono loto meia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻaia naʻe ha tuʻo ua mai kiate ia,

Therefore the Lord was angry with Salomon, because hee had turned his heart from the Lord God of Israel, which had appeared vnto him twise,

10 Mo ne tuku ʻae fekau kiate ia koeʻuhi ko e meʻa ni, ke ʻoua naʻa ne muimui ki he ngaahi ʻotua kehe: ka naʻe ʻikai fai ʻe ia ki he meʻa naʻe fekau ʻe Sihova.

And had giuen him a charge concerning this thing, that he should not follow other gods: but he kept not that, which the Lord had commanded him.

11 Ko ia naʻe pehē ai ʻe Sihova kia Solomone, “Koeʻuhi kuo ke fai eni ʻe koe, pea kuo ʻikai te ke fai ki heʻeku fuakava mo ʻeku ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni ʻaia kuo u fekau kiate koe, ko e moʻoni te u hae ʻae puleʻanga meiate koe, pea te u foaki ia ki hoʻo tamaioʻeiki.

Wherefore the Lord sayd vnto Salomon, Forasmuch as this is done of thee, and thou hast not kept my couenant, and my statutes (which I commanded thee) I will surely rent the kingdome from thee, and will giue it to thy seruant.

12 Ka koeʻuhi ko hoʻo tamai ko Tevita ʻe ʻikai te u fai ia ʻi ho ngaahi ʻaho ʻoʻou: ka te u hae atu ia mei he nima ʻo ho foha.

Notwithstanding in thy dayes I will not doe it, because of Dauid thy father, but I will rent it out of the hand of thy sonne:

13 Ka ʻe ʻikai foki te u hae atu ʻae puleʻanga kātoa; ka te u foaki ʻae faʻahinga ʻe taha ki ho foha, koeʻuhi ko Tevita ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki, pea koeʻuhi ko Selūsalema ʻaia kuo u fili.”

Howbeit I wil not rent all the Kingdome, but will giue one tribe to thy sonne, because of Dauid my seruant, and because of Ierusalem which I haue chosen.

14 Pea naʻe ueʻi hake ʻe Sihova ha fili kia Solomone, ko Hatati ko e tangata ʻItomi: naʻa ne ʻoe hako ʻoe tuʻi ʻi ʻItomi.

Then the Lord stirred vp an aduersarie vnto Salomon, euen Hadad the Edomite, of the Kings seede, which was in Edom.

15 He naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene ʻi ʻItomi ʻa Tevita, pea kuo ʻalu hake ʻa Soape ko e ʻeiki pule ki he kau tau ke tanu kinautolu naʻe tāmate, hili ʻa ʻene teʻia ʻae kakai tangata kotoa pē ʻi ʻItomi;

For when Dauid was in Edom, and Ioab the captaine of the hoste had smitten all the males in Edom, and was gone vp to bury ye slaine,

16 (Naʻe nofo ʻi ai ʻa Soape mo ʻIsileli kātoa ʻi he māhina ʻe ono, kaeʻoua ke fakaʻauha ʻe ia ʻae kau tangata kotoa pē ʻi ʻItomi: )

(For six moneths did Ioab remaine there, and all Israel, till he had destroyed all the males in Edom)

17 Pea naʻe hola ʻa Hatati, ko ia mo e niʻihi ʻoe kau ʻItomi ko e kau tamaioʻeiki ʻo ʻene tamai, ke [nau ]ʻalu ki ʻIsipite; he naʻe kei tamasiʻi siʻi pe ʻa Hatati.

Then this Hadad fled and certaine other Edomites of his fathers seruants with him, to goe into Egypt, Hadad being yet a litle childe.

18 Pea naʻa nau tuʻu hake mei Mitiane, ʻo hoko mai ki Palani: pea naʻa nau ʻave ʻae kau tangata mo kinautolu mei Palani, pea naʻa nau haʻu ki ʻIsipite, kia Felo ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsipite; ʻaia naʻa ne ʻange moʻona ha fale, mo ne tuku kiate ia haʻane meʻakai, ʻo ne foaki kiate ia ha konga fonua.

And they arose out of Midian, and came to Paran, and tooke men with them out of Paran, and came to Egypt vnto Pharaoh King of Egypt, which gaue him an house, and appointed him vitailes, and gaue him lande.

19 Pea naʻe ʻofeina lahi ʻa Hatati ʻi he ʻao ʻo Felo, ko ia naʻa ne foaki ai kiate ia ʻae tokoua ʻo hono uaifi ʻoʻona ke na mali, ʻio, ʻae tokoua ʻo Tapanise ko e tuʻi fefine.

So Hadad found great fauour in the sight of Pharaoh, and he gaue him to wife the sister of his owne wife, euen the sister of Tahpenes the Queene.

20 Pea naʻe fanau kiate ia ʻe he tokoua ʻo Tapanise ʻa hono foha ko Kinupate, ʻaia naʻe fakamavae ʻe Tapanise ʻi he fale ʻo Felo: pea naʻe nofo ʻa Kinupate ʻi he ʻapi ʻo Felo fakataha mo e ngaahi foha ʻo Felo.

And the sister of Tahpenes bare him Genubath his sonne, whome Tahpenes wayned in Pharaohs house: and Genubath was in Pharaohs house among the sonnes of Pharaoh.

21 Pea ʻi he fanongo ʻe Hatati ʻi ʻIsipite kuo mohe ʻa Tevita mo ʻene ngaahi tamai, pea kuo pekia ʻa Soape ʻae ʻeiki pule ʻoe kautau, naʻe pehē ʻe Hatati kia Felo, “Tuku au ke u ʻalu, koeʻuhi ke u ʻalu ki hoku fonua ʻoʻoku.”

And when Hadad heard in Egypt, that Dauid slept with his fathers, and that Ioab the captaine of the hoste was dead, Hadad sayde to Pharaoh, Let me depart, that I may goe to mine owne countrey.

22 Pea naʻe toki pehē kiate ia ʻe Felo, “Kae vakai, kuo ke masiva ʻi he hā ʻiate au, ke pehē ai hoʻo fie ʻalu ki ho fonua ʻoʻou?” Pea naʻa ne pehēange, “ʻOku ʻikai, kae kehe pe ke tuku au ke u ʻalu.”

But Pharaoh saide vnto him, What hast thou lacked with me, that thou wouldest thus go to thine owne countrey? And he answered, Nothing, but in any wise let me goe.

23 Pea naʻe ueʻi hake ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae fili ʻe tokotaha, ko Lisoni ko e foha ʻo Iliate, ʻaia naʻe hola mei heʻene ʻeiki ko Hetatesa ko e tuʻi ʻo Sopa:

And God stirred him vp another aduersarie, Rezon the sonne of Eliada, which fled from his lorde Hadadezer King of Zobah.

24 Pea naʻa ne tānaki mai ʻae kau tangata kiate ia, pea ne hoko ko e ʻeiki ʻo ha kongakau, ʻi he kuonga naʻe teʻia ai ʻe Tevita kinautolu: pea naʻa nau ʻalu ki Tamasikusi, ʻo nofo ai, ʻo[ne ]pule ʻi Tamasikusi.

And he gathered men vnto him, and had bene captaine ouer the company, when Dauid slew them. And they went to Damascus, and dwelt there, and they made him King in Damascus.

25 Pea ko e fili ia ki ʻIsileli lolotonga ʻae ʻaho kotoa pē ʻo Solomone, ka ʻoku lau kehe ʻae kovi naʻe hoko meia Hatati: pea naʻa ne fakaliliʻa ki ʻIsileli, mo ne pule ki Silia.

Therefore was he an aduersarie to Israel all the daies of Salomon: besides the euil that Hadad did, he also abhorred Israel, and reigned ouer Aram

26 Pea ko Selopoami ko e foha ʻo Nipati, ko e tangata ʻEfalata mei Sileta, ko e tamaioʻeiki ʻa Solomone, ko e hingoa ʻo ʻene faʻē ko Silua, ko e fefine kuo pekia hono husepāniti, ʻio, naʻa mo ia naʻa ne hiki angatuʻu ʻa hono nima ki he tuʻi.

And Ieroboam the sonne of Nebat an Ephrathite of Zereda Salomons seruant (whose mother was called Zeruah a widowe) lift vp his hand against the King.

27 Pea ko hono ʻuhinga eni ʻo ʻene hiki ʻa hono nima ke angatuʻu ki he tuʻi: naʻe langa ʻe Solomone ʻa Milo, pea naʻa ne toe langa ʻae ngaahi potu naʻe maumau ʻi he Kolo ʻo Tevita ko ʻene tamai.

And this was the cause that he lift vp his hande against the King, When Salomon built Millo, he repared the broken places of the citie of Dauid his father.

28 Pea ko e tangata ko Selopoami ko e tangata toʻa lahi ia: pea ʻi heʻene mamata ʻe Solomone ki he faʻa ngāue ʻae talavou, naʻa ne fakanofo ia ke pule ki he ngāue kotoa pē ʻi he fale ʻo Siosefa.

And this man Ieroboam was a man of strength and courage, and Salomon seeing that the yong man was meete for the worke, he made him ouerseer of all the labour of the house of Ioseph.

29 Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē ʻi he kuonga ko ia, ʻi he ʻalu ʻa Selopoami mei Selūsalema, naʻe ʻilo ia ʻi he hala ʻe he palōfita ko ʻAhisa ko e tangata Sailo; pea kuo ne fakakofuʻaki ia ha kofu foʻou; pea ko kinaua pe ʻe toko ua naʻe ʻi he ngoue:

And at that time, when Ieroboam went out of Ierusalem, the Prophet Ahiiah the Shilonite founde him in the way, hauing a newe garment on him, and they two were alone in ye field.

30 Pea naʻe puke atu ʻe ʻAhisa ki he kofu foʻou naʻa ne kofuʻaki, mo ne haehae ia ki he konga ʻe hongofulu ma ua:

Then Ahiiah caught the newe garment that was on him, and rent it in twelue pieces,

31 Pea naʻa ne pehē kia Selopoami, “Toʻo ʻe koe ʻae konga ʻe hongofulu: he ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻIsileli, ‘Vakai, te u hae mai ʻae puleʻanga mei he nima ʻo Solomone, pea te u ange ʻae faʻahinga ʻe hongofulu kiate koe.

And said to Ieroboam, Take vnto thee ten pieces: for thus saith the Lord God of Israel, Beholde, I wil rent the kingdome out of ye hands of Salomon, and will giue ten tribes to thee.

32 (Ka ʻe ʻiate ia ʻae faʻahinga ʻe taha koeʻuhi ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki ko Tevita, pea koeʻuhi ko Selūsalema, ko e kolo ʻaia kuo u fili mai mei he ngaahi faʻahinga kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsileli: )

But he shall haue one tribe for my seruant Dauids sake, and for Ierusalem the citie, which I haue chosen out of all the tribes of Israel,

33 Koeʻuhi kuo nau liʻaki au, pea kuo[nau ]lotu kia ʻAsitelote ko e ʻotua fefine ʻo Saitoni, mo Kimosi ko e ʻotua ʻoe kakai Moape, mo Milikomi ko e ʻotua ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻAmoni, pea kuo ʻikai ʻalu ʻakinautolu ʻi hoku ngaahi hala, ke fai totonu ʻi hoku ʻao, pea ki heʻeku ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni mo ʻeku ngaahi fakamaau, ʻo hangē ko Tevita ko ʻene tamai.

Because they haue forsaken me, and haue worshipped Ashtaroth the god of the Zidonians, and Chemosh the god of the Moabites, and Milcom the god of the Ammonites, and haue not walked in my wayes (to do right in mine eyes, and my statutes, and my lawes) as did Dauid his father.

34 Ka ʻe ʻikai foki te u toʻo mei hono nima ʻae puleʻanga kātoa: ka te u tuku ia ke tuʻi ʻi he ʻaho kotoa pē ʻo ʻene moʻui koeʻuhi ko Tevita ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki, ʻaia naʻaku fili, koeʻuhi ko ʻene fai ki heʻeku ngaahi fekau mo ʻeku ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni:

But I will not take the whole kingdome out of his hande: for I will make him prince all his life long for Dauid my seruants sake, whome I haue chosen, and who kept my commandements and my statutes.

35 Ka te u toʻo mai ʻae puleʻanga mei he nima ʻo hono foha, pea te u ʻange ia kiate koe, ʻio, ʻae faʻahinga ʻe hongofulu.

But I will take the kingdome out of his sonnes hand, and will giue it vnto thee, euen the ten tribes.

36 Pea ki hono foha ʻoʻona te u ʻange ʻae faʻahinga ʻe taha, koeʻuhi ke ai ha maama maʻuaipē ʻi hoku ʻao ʻi Selūsalema kia Tevita ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki, ʻae kolo ko ia kuo u fili ke tuku ki ai ʻa hoku huafa.

And vnto his sonne will I giue one tribe, that Dauid my seruant may haue a light alway before me in Ierusalem the citie, which I haue chosen me, to put my Name there.

37 Pea te u fili koe, pea te ke pule ʻo tatau mo ia kotoa pē ʻoku holi ki ai ho laumālie, pea te ke tuʻi ʻi ʻIsileli.

And I wil take thee, and thou shalt reigne, euen as thine heart desireth, and shalt be King ouer Israel.

38 Pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, kapau te ke fakafanongo ki he meʻa kotoa pē te u fekau kiate koe, pea ke ʻalu ʻi hoku ngaahi hala, mo ke fai totonu ʻi hoku ʻao, ke tauhi ʻeku ngaahi tuʻutuʻuni mo ʻeku ngaahi fekau, ʻo hangē ko ia naʻe fai ʻe Tevita ko ʻeku tamaioʻeiki; pehē, te u kau kiate koe, mo langa kiate koe ha fale tuʻumaʻu, ʻo hangē ko ia naʻaku fokotuʻu kia Tevita, pea te u foaki ʻa ʻIsileli kiate koe.

And if thou hearken vnto all that I commande thee, and wilt walke in my wayes, and doe right in my sight, to keepe my statutes and my commandements, as Dauid my seruant did, then will I be with thee, and build thee a sure house, as I built vnto Dauid, and wil giue Israel vnto thee.

39 Pea koeʻuhi ko e meʻa ni te u fakamamahiʻi ʻae hako ʻo Tevita, ka ʻe ʻikai ke taʻengata.’”

And I will for this afflict the seede of Dauid, but not for euer.

40 Ko ia naʻe kumi ai ʻe Solomone ke ne tāmateʻi ʻa Selopoami. Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ʻa Selopoami, ʻo ne hola ki ʻIsipite, kia Sisaki ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsipite, pea naʻa ne ʻi ʻIsipite ʻo aʻu ki he pekia ʻa Solomone.

Salomon sought therefore to kill Ieroboam, and Ieroboam arose, and fled into Egypt vnto Shishak King of Egypt, and was in Egypt vntil the death of Salomon.

41 Pea ko hono toe ʻoe ngaahi ngāue ʻa Solomone, mo ia fulipē naʻa ne fai, pea mo ʻene poto, ʻikai kuo tohi ia ʻi he tohi ʻoe ngaahi ngāue ʻa Solomone?

And the rest of the wordes of Salomon, and all that he did, and his wisedom, are they not written in the booke of the actes of Salomon?

42 Pea ko e kuonga naʻe pule ai ʻa Solomone ʻi Selūsalema ki ʻIsileli kātoa ko e taʻu ia ʻe fāngofulu.

The time that Salomon reigned in Ierusalem ouer all Israel, was fourtie yeere.

43 Pea naʻe mohe ʻa Solomone ki heʻene ngaahi tamai pea naʻe fai hono putu ki he Kolo ʻo Tevita ko ʻene tamai: pea naʻe fetongi ia ʻi he pule ʻe hono foha ko Lehopoami.

And Salomon slept with his fathers and was buried in the citie of Dauid his father: and Rehoboam his sonne reigned in his steade.
