< اَلْمُلُوكِ ٱلْأَوَّلُ 11 >

وَأَحَبَّ ٱلْمَلِكُ سُلَيْمَانُ نِسَاءً غَرِيبَةً كَثِيرَةً مَعَ بِنْتِ فِرْعَوْنَ: مُوآبِيَّاتٍ وَعَمُّونِيَّاتٍ وَأَدُومِيَّاتٍ وَصِيدُونِيَّاتٍ وَحِثِّيَّاتٍ ١ 1
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;
مِنَ ٱلْأُمَمِ ٱلَّذِينَ قَالَ عَنْهُمُ ٱلرَّبُّ لِبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ: «لَا تَدْخُلُونَ إِلَيْهِمْ وَهُمْ لَا يَدْخُلُونَ إِلَيْكُمْ، لِأَنَّهُمْ يُمِيلُونَ قُلُوبَكُمْ وَرَاءَ آلِهَتِهِمْ». فَٱلْتَصَقَ سُلَيْمَانُ بِهَؤُلَاءِ بِٱلْمَحَبَّةِ. ٢ 2
of the nations concerning whom the Lord forbade the children of Israel, [saying], You 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.
وَكَانَتْ لَهُ سَبْعُ مِئَةٍ مِنَ ٱلنِّسَاءِ ٱلسَّيِّدَاتِ، وَثَلَاثُ مِئَةٍ مِنَ ٱلسَّرَارِيِّ، فَأَمَالَتْ نِسَاؤُهُ قَلْبَهُ. ٣ 3
وَكَانَ فِي زَمَانِ شَيْخُوخَةِ سُلَيْمَانَ أَنَّ نِسَاءَهُ أَمَلْنَ قَلْبَهُ وَرَاءَ آلِهَةٍ أُخْرَى، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ قَلْبُهُ كَامِلًا مَعَ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِهِ كَقَلْبِ دَاوُدَ أَبِيهِ. ٤ 4
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,
فَذَهَبَ سُلَيْمَانُ وَرَاءَ عَشْتُورَثَ إِلَهَةِ ٱلصِّيدُونِيِّينَ، وَمَلْكُومَ رِجْسِ ٱلْعَمُّونِيِّينَ. ٥ 5
and to Astarte the abomination of the Sidonians.
وَعَمِلَ سُلَيْمَانُ ٱلشَّرَّ فِي عَيْنَيِ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَلَمْ يَتْبَعِ ٱلرَّبَّ تَمَامًا كَدَاوُدَ أَبِيهِ. ٦ 6
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.
حِينَئِذٍ بَنَى سُلَيْمَانُ مُرْتَفَعَةً لِكَمُوشَ رِجْسِ ٱلْمُوآبِيِّينَ عَلَى ٱلْجَبَلِ ٱلَّذِي تُجَاهَ أُورُشَلِيمَ، وَلِمُولَكَ رِجْسِ بَنِي عَمُّونَ. ٧ 7
وَهَكَذَا فَعَلَ لِجَمِيعِ نِسَائِهِ ٱلْغَرِيبَاتِ ٱللَّوَاتِي كُنَّ يُوقِدْنَ وَيَذْبَحْنَ لِآلِهَتِهِنَّ. ٨ 8
فَغَضِبَ ٱلرَّبُّ عَلَى سُلَيْمَانَ لِأَنَّ قَلْبَهُ مَالَ عَنِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلَّذِي تَرَاءَى لَهُ مَرَّتَيْنِ، ٩ 9
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,
وَأَوْصَاهُ فِي هَذَا ٱلْأَمْرِ أَنْ لَا يَتَّبِعَ آلِهَةً أُخْرَى، فَلَمْ يَحْفَظْ مَا أَوْصَى بِهِ ٱلرَّبُّ. ١٠ 10
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.
فَقَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ لِسُلَيْمَانَ: «مِنْ أَجْلِ أَنَّ ذَلِكَ عِنْدَكَ، وَلَمْ تَحْفَظْ عَهْدِي وَفَرَائِضِيَ ٱلَّتِي أَوْصَيْتُكَ بِهَا، فَإِنِّي أُمَزِّقُ ٱلْمَمْلَكَةَ عَنْكَ تَمْزِيقًا وَأُعْطِيهَا لِعَبْدِكَ. ١١ 11
And the Lord said to Solomon, Because it has been thus with you, and you have not kept my commandments and my ordinances which I commanded you, I will surely rend your kingdom out of your hand, and give it to your servant.
إِلَّا إِنِّي لَا أَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ فِي أَيَّامِكَ، مِنْ أَجْلِ دَاوُدَ أَبِيكَ، بَلْ مِنْ يَدِ ٱبْنِكَ أُمَزِّقُهَا. ١٢ 12
Only in your days I will not do it for David your father's sake: [but] I will take it out of the hand of your son.
عَلَى أَنِّي لَا أُمَزِّقُ مِنْكَ ٱلْمَمْلَكَةَ كُلَّهَا، بَلْ أُعْطِي سِبْطًا وَاحِدًا لِٱبْنِكَ، لِأَجْلِ دَاوُدَ عَبْدِي، وَلِأَجْلِ أُورُشَلِيمَ ٱلَّتِي ٱخْتَرْتُهَا». ١٣ 13
Only I will not take away the whole kingdom: I will give one tribe to your son for David my servant's sake, and for the sake of Jerusalem, the city which I have chosen.
وَأَقَامَ ٱلرَّبُّ خَصْمًا لِسُلَيْمَانَ: هَدَدَ ٱلْأَدُومِيَّ، كَانَ مِنْ نَسْلِ ٱلْمَلِكِ فِي أَدُومَ. ١٤ 14
And the Lord raised up an enemy to Solomon, Ader the Idumaean, and Esrom son of Eliadae who [lived] 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.
وَحَدَثَ لَمَّا كَانَ دَاوُدُ فِي أَدُومَ، عِنْدَ صُعُودِ يُوآبَ رَئِيسِ ٱلْجَيْشِ لِدَفْنِ ٱلْقَتْلَى، وَضَرَبَ كُلَّ ذَكَرٍ فِي أَدُومَ. ١٥ 15
And it happened, that while David was utterly destroying Edom, while Joab captain of the host was going to bury the dead, when they killed every male in Idumaea;
لِأَنَّ يُوآبَ وَكُلَّ إِسْرَائِيلَ أَقَامُوا هُنَاكَ سِتَّةَ أَشْهُرٍ حَتَّى أَفْنَوْا كُلَّ ذَكَرٍ فِي أَدُومَ. ١٦ 16
(for Joab and all Israel abode there six months in Idumaea, until he utterly destroyed every male in Idumaea; )
أَنَّ هَدَدَ هَرَبَ هُوَ وَرِجَالٌ أَدُومِيُّونَ مِنْ عَبِيدِ أَبِيهِ مَعَهُ لِيَأْتُوا مِصْرَ. وَكَانَ هَدَدُ غُلَامًا صَغِيرًا. ١٧ 17
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.
وَقَامُوا مِنْ مِدْيَانَ وَأَتَوْا إِلَى فَارَانَ، وَأَخَذُوا مَعَهُمْ رِجَالًا مِنْ فَارَانَ وَأَتَوْا إِلَى مِصْرَ، إِلَى فِرْعَوْنَ مَلِكِ مِصْرَ، فَأَعْطَاهُ بَيْتًا وَعَيَّنَ لَهُ طَعَامًا وَأَعْطَاهُ أَرْضًا. ١٨ 18
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.
فَوَجَدَ هَدَدُ نِعْمَةً فِي عَيْنَيْ فِرْعَوْنَ جِدًّا، وَزَوَّجَهُ أُخْتَ ٱمْرَأَتِهِ، أُخْتَ تَحْفَنِيسَ ٱلْمَلِكَةِ. ١٩ 19
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.
فَوَلَدَتْ لَهُ أُخْتُ تَحْفَنِيسَ جَنُوبَثَ ٱبْنَهُ، وَفَطَمَتْهُ تَحْفَنِيسُ فِي وَسَطِ بَيْتِ فِرْعَوْنَ. وَكَانَ جَنُوبَثُ فِي بَيْتِ فِرْعَوْنَ بَيْنَ بَنِي فِرْعَوْنَ. ٢٠ 20
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.
فَسَمِعَ هَدَدُ فِي مِصْرَ بِأَنَّ دَاوُدَ قَدِ ٱضْطَجَعَ مَعَ آبَائِهِ، وَبِأَنَّ يُوآبَ رَئِيسَ ٱلْجَيْشِ قَدْ مَاتَ. فَقَالَ هَدَدُ لِفِرْعَوْنَ: «أَطْلِقْنِي إِلَى أَرْضِي». ٢١ 21
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.
فَقَالَ لَهُ فِرْعَوْنُ: «مَاذَا أَعْوَزَكَ عِنْدِي حَتَّى إِنَّكَ تَطْلُبُ ٱلذَّهَابَ إِلَى أَرْضِكَ؟» فَقَالَ: «لَا شَيْءَ، وَإِنَّمَا أَطْلِقْنِي». ٢٢ 22
And Pharao said to Ader, What lack you with me? that behold! you seek to depart to your country? and Ader said to him, By all means let me go.
وَأَقَامَ ٱللهُ لَهُ خَصْمًا آخَرَ: رَزُونَ بْنَ أَلِيدَاعَ، ٱلَّذِي هَرَبَ مِنْ عِنْدِ سَيِّدِهِ هَدَدَ عَزَرَ مَلِكِ صُوبَةَ، ٢٣ 23
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.
فَجَمَعَ إِلَيْهِ رِجَالًا فَصَارَ رَئِيسَ غُزَاةٍ عِنْدَ قَتْلِ دَاوُدَ إِيَّاهُمْ، فَٱنْطَلَقُوا إِلَى دِمَشْقَ وَأَقَامُوا بِهَا وَمَلَكُوا فِي دِمَشْقَ. ٢٤ 24
وَكَانَ خَصْمًا لِإِسْرَائِيلَ كُلَّ أَيَّامِ سُلَيْمَانَ، مَعَ شَرِّ هَدَدَ. فَكَرِهَ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَمَلَكَ عَلَى أَرَامَ. ٢٥ 25
وَيَرُبْعَامُ بْنُ نَابَاطَ، أَفْرَايِمِيٌّ مِنْ صَرَدَةَ، عَبْدٌ لِسُلَيْمَانَ. وَٱسْمُ أُمِّهِ صَرُوعَةُ، وَهِيَ ٱمْرأَةٌ أَرْمَلَةٌ، رَفَعَ يَدَهُ عَلَى ٱلْمَلِكِ. ٢٦ 26
And Jeroboam the son of Nabat, the Ephrathite of Sarira, the son of a widow, [was] servant of Solomon.
وَهَذَا هُوَ سَبَبُ رَفْعِهِ يَدَهُ عَلَى ٱلْمَلِكِ: أَنَّ سُلَيْمَانَ بَنَى ٱلْقَلْعَةَ وَسَدَّ شُقُوقَ مَدِينَةِ دَاوُدَ أَبِيهِ. ٢٧ 27
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.
وَكَانَ ٱلرَّجُلُ يَرُبْعَامُ جَبَّارَ بَأْسٍ، فَلَمَّا رَأَى سُلَيْمَانُ ٱلْغُلَامَ أَنَّهُ عَامِلٌ شُغْلًا، أَقَامَهُ عَلَى كُلِّ أَعْمَالِ بَيْتِ يُوسُفَ. ٢٨ 28
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.
وَكَانَ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلزَّمَانِ لَمَّا خَرَجَ يَرُبْعَامُ مِنْ أُورُشَلِيمَ، أَنَّهُ لَاقَاهُ أَخِيَّا ٱلشِّيلُونِيُّ ٱلنَّبِيُّ فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ وَهُوَ لَابِسٌ رِدَاءً جَدِيدًا، وَهُمَا وَحْدَهُمَا فِي ٱلْحَقْلِ. ٢٩ 29
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.
فَقَبَضَ أَخِيَّا عَلَى ٱلرِّدَاءِ ٱلْجَدِيدِ ٱلَّذِي عَلَيْهِ وَمَزَّقَهُ ٱثْنَتَيْ عَشْرَةَ قِطْعَةً ٣٠ 30
And Achia laid hold of his new garment that was upon him, and tore it [into] twelve pieces:
وَقَالَ لِيَرُبْعَامَ: «خُذْ لِنَفْسِكَ عَشَرَ قِطَعٍ، لِأَنَّهُ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ إِسْرَائِيلَ: هَأَنَذَا أُمَزِّقُ ٱلْمَمْلَكَةَ مِنْ يَدِ سُلَيْمَانَ وَأُعْطِيكَ عَشْرَةَ أَسْبَاطٍ. ٣١ 31
and he said to Jeroboam, Take to yourself ten pieces, for thus says the Lord God of Israel, Behold, I rend the kingdom out of the hand of Solomon, and will give you ten tribes.
وَيَكُونُ لَهُ سِبْطٌ وَاحِدٌ مِنْ أَجْلِ عَبْدِي دَاوُدَ وَمِنْ أَجْلِ أُورُشَلِيمَ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ ٱلَّتِي ٱخْتَرْتُهَا مِنْ كُلِّ أَسْبَاطِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، ٣٢ 32
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.
لِأَنَّهُمْ تَرَكُونِي وَسَجَدُوا لِعَشْتُورَثَ إِلَهَةِ ٱلصِّيدُونِيِّينَ، وَلِكَمُوشَ إِلَهِ ٱلْمُوآبِيِّينَ، وَلِمَلْكُومَ إِلَهِ بَنِي عَمُّونَ، وَلَمْ يَسْلُكُوا فِي طُرُقِي لِيَعْمَلُوا ٱلْمُسْتَقِيمَ فِي عَيْنَيَّ وَفَرَائِضِي وَأَحْكَامِي كَدَاوُدَ أَبِيهِ. ٣٣ 33
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].
وَلَا آخُذُ كُلَّ ٱلْمَمْلَكَةِ مِنْ يَدِهِ، بَلْ أُصَيِّرُهُ رَئِيسًا كُلَّ أَيَّامِ حَيَاتِهِ لِأَجْلِ دَاوُدَ عَبْدِي ٱلَّذِي ٱخْتَرْتُهُ ٱلَّذِي حَفِظَ وَصَايَايَ وَفَرَائِضِي. ٣٤ 34
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.
وَآخُذُ ٱلْمَمْلَكَةَ مِنْ يَدِ ٱبْنِهِ وَأُعْطِيكَ إِيَّاهَا، أَيِ ٱلْأَسْبَاطَ ٱلْعَشْرَةَ. ٣٥ 35
But I will take the kingdom out of the hand of his son, and give you ten tribes.
وَأُعْطِي ٱبْنَهُ سِبْطًا وَاحِدًا، لِيَكُونَ سِرَاجٌ لِدَاوُدَ عَبْدِي كُلَّ ٱلْأَيَّامِ أَمَامِي فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ ٱلَّتِي ٱخْتَرْتُهَا لِنَفْسِي لِأَضَعَ ٱسْمِي فِيهَا. ٣٦ 36
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.
وَآخُذُكَ فَتَمْلِكُ حَسَبَ كُلِّ مَا تَشْتَهِي نَفْسُكَ، وَتَكُونُ مَلِكًا عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ. ٣٧ 37
And I will take you, and you shall reign as your soul desires, and you shall be king over Israel.
فَإِذَا سَمِعْتَ لِكُلِّ مَا أُوصِيكَ بِهِ، وَسَلَكْتَ فِي طُرُقِي، وَفَعَلْتَ مَا هُوَ مُسْتَقِيمٌ فِي عَيْنَيَّ، وَحَفِظْتَ فَرَائِضِي وَوَصَايَايَ كَمَا فَعَلَ دَاوُدُ عَبْدِي، أَكُونُ مَعَكَ وَأَبْنِي لَكَ بَيْتًا آمِنًا كَمَا بَنَيْتُ لِدَاوُدَ، وَأُعْطِيكَ إِسْرَائِيلَ. ٣٨ 38
And it shall come to pass, if you will keep all the commandments that I shall give you, and will 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 you, and will build you a sure house, as I built to David.
وَأُذِلُّ نَسْلَ دَاوُدَ مِنْ أَجْلِ هَذَا، وَلَكِنْ لَا كُلَّ ٱلْأَيَّامِ». ٣٩ 39
وَطَلَبَ سُلَيْمَانُ قَتْلَ يَرُبْعَامَ، فَقَامَ يَرُبْعَامُ وَهَرَبَ إِلَى مِصْرَ إِلَى شِيشَقَ مَلِكِ مِصْرَ. وَكَانَ فِي مِصْرَ إِلَى وَفَاةِ سُلَيْمَانَ. ٤٠ 40
And Solomon sought to kill Jeroboam: but he arose and fled into Egypt, to Susakim king of Egypt, and he was in Egypt until Solomon died.
وَبَقِيَّةُ أُمُورِ سُلَيْمَانَ وَكُلُّ مَا صَنَعَ وَحِكْمَتُهُ أَمَا هِيَ مَكْتُوبَةٌ فِي سِفْرِ أُمُورِ سُلَيْمَانَ؟ ٤١ 41
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?
وَكَانَتِ ٱلْأَيَّامُ ٱلَّتِي مَلَكَ فِيهَا سُلَيْمَانُ فِي أُورُشَلِيمَ عَلَى كُلِّ إِسْرَائِيلَ أَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً. ٤٢ 42
And the days [during] which Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel [were] forty years.
ثُمَّ ٱضْطَجَعَ سُلَيْمَانُ مَعَ آبَائِهِ وَدُفِنَ فِي مَدِينَةِ دَاوُدَ أَبِيهِ، وَمَلَكَ رَحُبْعَامُ ٱبْنُهُ عِوَضًا عَنْهُ. ٤٣ 43
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.
