1 Kings 11
1 Bvt King Salomon loued many outlandish women: both the daughter of Pharaoh, and the women of Moab, Ammon, Edom, Zidon and Heth,
Rex autem Salomon adamavit mulieres alienigenas multas, filiam quoque Pharaonis, et Moabitidas, et Ammonitidas, Idumæas, et Sidonias, et Hetthæas:
2 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.
de gentibus, super quibus dixit Dominus filiis Israel: Non ingrediemini ad eas, neque de illis ingredientur ad vestras: certissime enim avertent corda vestra ut sequamini deos earum. His itaque copulatus est Salomon ardentissimo amore.
3 And he had seuen hundreth wiues, that were princesses, and three hundreth concubines, and his wiues turned away his heart.
Fueruntque ei uxores quasi reginæ septingentæ, et concubinæ trecentæ: et averterunt mulieres cor eius.
4 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.
Cumque iam esset senex, depravatum est cor eius per mulieres, ut sequeretur deos alienos: nec erat cor eius perfectum cum Domino Deo suo, sicut cor David patris eius.
5 For Salomon followed Ashtaroth the god of the Zidonians, and Milcom the abomination of the Ammonites.
Sed colebat Salomon Astarthen deam Sidoniorum, et Moloch idolum Ammonitarum.
6 So Salomon wrought wickednesse in the sight of the Lord, but continued not to follow the Lord, as did Dauid his father.
Fecitque Salomon quod non placuerat coram Domino, et non adimplevit ut sequeretur Dominum, sicut David pater eius.
7 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.
Tunc ædificavit Salomon fanum Chamos, idolo Moab, in monte qui est contra Ierusalem, et Moloch idolo filiorum Ammon.
8 And so did he for all his outlandish wiues, which burnt incense and offered vnto their gods.
Atque in hunc modum fecit universis uxoribus suis alienigenis, quæ adolebant thura, et immolabant diis suis.
9 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,
Igitur iratus est Dominus Salomoni, quod aversa esset mens eius a Domino Deo Israel, qui apparuerat ei secundo,
10 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.
et præceperat de verbo hoc ne sequeretur deos alienos, et non custodivit quæ mandavit ei Dominus.
11 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.
Dixit itaque Dominus Salomoni: Quia habuisti hoc apud te, et non custodisti pactum meum, et præcepta mea, quæ mandavi tibi, dirumpens scindam regnum tuum, et dabo illud servo tuo.
12 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:
Verumtamen in diebus tuis non faciam propter David patrem tuum: de manu filii tui scindam illud,
13 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.
nec totum regnum auferam, sed tribum unam dabo filio tuo propter David servum meum, et Ierusalem quam elegi.
14 Then the Lord stirred vp an aduersarie vnto Salomon, euen Hadad the Edomite, of the Kings seede, which was in Edom.
Suscitavit autem Dominus adversarium Salomoni Adad Idumæum de semine regio, qui erat in Edom.
15 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,
Cum enim esset David in Idumæa, et ascendisset Ioab princeps militiæ ad sepeliendum eos, qui fuerant interfecti, et occidisset omnem masculinum in Idumæa
16 (For six moneths did Ioab remaine there, and all Israel, till he had destroyed all the males in Edom)
(sex enim mensibus ibi moratus est Ioad, et omnis Israel, donec interimeret omne masculinum in Idumæa)
17 Then this Hadad fled and certaine other Edomites of his fathers seruants with him, to goe into Egypt, Hadad being yet a litle childe.
fugit Adad ipse, et viri Idumæi de servis patris eius cum eo, ut ingrederetur Ægyptum: erat autem Adad puer parvulus.
18 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.
Cumque surrexissent de Madian, venerunt in Pharan, tuleruntque secum viros de Pharan, et introierunt Ægyptum ad Pharaonem regem Ægypti: qui dedit ei domum, et cibos constituit, et terram delegavit.
19 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.
Et invenit Adad gratiam coram Pharaone valde, in tantum ut daret ei uxorem, sororem uxoris suæ germanam Taphnes reginæ.
20 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.
Genuitque ei soror Taphnes Genubath filium, et nutrivit eum Taphnes in domo Pharaonis: eratque Genubath habitans apud Pharaonem cum filiis eius.
21 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.
Cumque audisset Adad in Ægypto, dormisse David cum patribus suis, et mortuum esse Ioab principem militiæ, dixit Pharaoni: Dimitte me, ut vadam in terram meam.
22 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.
Dixitque ei Pharao: Qua enim re apud me indiges, ut quæras ire ad terram tuam? At ille respondit: Nulla: sed obsecro te ut dimittas me.
23 And God stirred him vp another aduersarie, Rezon the sonne of Eliada, which fled from his lorde Hadadezer King of Zobah.
Suscitavit quoque ei Deus adversarium Razon filium Eliada, qui fugerat Adarezer regem Soba dominum suum:
24 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.
et congregavit contra eum viros, et factus est princeps latronum cum interficeret eos David: abieruntque Damascum, et habitaverunt ibi, et constituerunt eum regem in Damasco,
25 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
eratque adversarius Israeli cunctis diebus Salomonis: et hoc est malum Adad, et odium contra Israel, regnavitque in Syria.
26 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.
Ieroboam quoque filius Nabat, Ephrathæus, de Sareda, servus Salomonis, cuius mater erat nomine Sarva, mulier vidua: levavit manum contra regem.
27 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.
Et hæc est causa rebellionis adversus eum, quia Salomon ædificavit Mello, et coæquavit voraginem civitatis David patris sui.
28 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.
Erat autem Ieroboam vir fortis et potens: vidensque Salomon adolescentem bonæ indolis et industrium, constituerat eum præfectum super tributa universæ domus Ioseph.
29 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.
Factum est igitur in tempore illo, ut Ieroboam egrederetur de Ierusalem, et inveniret eum Ahias Silonites propheta in via, opertus pallio novo: erant autem duo tantum in agro.
30 Then Ahiiah caught the newe garment that was on him, and rent it in twelue pieces,
Apprehendensque Ahias pallium suum novum, quo coopertus erat, scidit in duodecim partes.
31 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.
Et ait ad Ieroboam: Tolle tibi decem scissuras: hæc enim dicit Dominus Deus Israel: Ecce ego scindam regnum de manu Salomonis, et dabo tibi decem tribus.
32 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,
Porro una tribus remanebit ei propter servum meum David, et Ierusalem civitatem, quam elegi ex omnibus tribubus Israel:
33 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.
eo quod dereliquerit me, et adoraverit Astarthen deam Sidoniorum, et Chamos deum Moab, et Moloch deum filiorum Ammon: et non ambulaverit in viis meis, ut faceret iustitiam coram me, et præcepta mea, et iudicia sicut David pater eius.
34 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.
Nec auferam omne regnum de manu eius, sed ducem ponam eum cunctis diebus vitæ suæ, propter David servum meum, quem elegi, qui custodivit mandata mea et præcepta mea.
35 But I will take the kingdome out of his sonnes hand, and will giue it vnto thee, euen the ten tribes.
Auferam autem regnum de manu filii eius, et dabo tibi decem tribus:
36 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.
filio autem eius dabo tribum unam, ut remaneat lucerna David servo meo cunctis diebus coram me in Ierusalem civitate, quam elegi ut esset nomen meum ibi.
37 And I wil take thee, and thou shalt reigne, euen as thine heart desireth, and shalt be King ouer Israel.
Te autem assumam, et regnabis super omnia, quæ desiderat anima tua, erisque rex super Israel.
38 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.
Si igitur audieris omnia, quæ præcepero tibi, et ambulaveris in viis meis, et feceris quod rectum est coram me, custodiens mandata mea et præcepta mea, sicut fecit David servus meus: ero tecum, et ædificabo tibi domum fidelem, quomodo ædificavi David domum, et tradam tibi Israel:
39 And I will for this afflict the seede of Dauid, but not for euer.
et affligam semen David super hoc, verumtamen non cunctis diebus.
40 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.
Voluit ergo Salomon interficere Ieroboam: qui surrexit, et aufugit in Ægyptum ad Sesac regem Ægypti, et fuit in Ægypto usque ad mortem Salomonis.
41 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?
Reliquum autem verborum Salomonis, et omnia quæ fecit, et sapientia eius: ecce universa scripta sunt in Libro verborum dierum Salomonis.
42 The time that Salomon reigned in Ierusalem ouer all Israel, was fourtie yeere.
Dies autem, quos regnavit Salomon in Ierusalem super omnem Israel, quadraginta anni sunt.
43 And Salomon slept with his fathers and was buried in the citie of Dauid his father: and Rehoboam his sonne reigned in his steade.
Dormivitque Salomon cum patribus suis, et sepultus est in Civitate David patris sui, regnavitque Roboam filius eius pro eo.
