Kings III 11
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;
Salomon te renmen ak anpil fanm ki moun lòt nasyon. San konte pitit fi wa peyi Lejip la, li te gen fanm ki soti nan peyi Moab, nan peyi Amon, nan peyi Edon, nan peyi Sidon ak nan peyi Et.
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.
Li te marye ak anpil fanm ki soti nan lòt nasyon, atout Seyè a te bay moun pèp Izrayèl yo lòd pou yo pa janm marye ak moun sa yo, pou yo pa janm kite yo mele ak yo, paske moun sa yo va pran tèt yo pou fè yo sèvi bondye pa yo. Men, Salomon te sitèlman renmen yo, li marye ak yo.
Salomon te marye ak sètsan (700) madanm ki soti nan fanmi gwo chèf, lèfini li te gen twasan (300) fanm kay. Medam sa yo fè l' vire do bay Bondye.
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,
Lè Salomon konmanse granmoun, medam yo pran tèt li, yo fè l' al sèvi lòt bondye. Li pa sèvi Seyè a, Bondye li a, ak tout kè li ankò, jan David, papa l', te fè l' la.
5 and to Astarte the abomination of the Sidonians.
Li pran sèvi Astate, bondye peyi Sidon an, ak Milkòm, vye zidòl degoutan peyi Amon an.
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.
Salomon tanmen fè sa ki mal devan Seyè a. Li pa sèvi l' ak tout kè li jan David, papa l', te fè a.
Sou mòn ki sou bò solèy leve lavil Jerizalèm lan, li bati de tanp, yonn kote yo fè sèvis pou Kemòch, vye zidòl degoutan peyi Moab la, ak yonn kote yo fè sèvis pou Molòk, vye zidòl degoutan peyi Amon an.
Se konsa li bati lòt tanp kote pou medam lòt nasyon li te marye yo al boule lansan ak ofri bèt pou touye pou bondye pa yo.
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,
Seyè a move sou Salomon paske Salomon te vire do bay Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la. Atout Seyè a te parèt de fwa devan Salomon,
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.
atout li te ba li lòd pou li pa sèvi bondye lòt nasyon yo, Salomon pa t' koute Seyè a, li pa swiv lòd li yo.
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.
Seyè a di Salomon konsa: -Gade sa ou fè! Ou pa respekte kontra mwen te pase avè ou la, ou pa fè sa m' te ba ou lòd fè. M'ap wete baton kòmandman an nan men ou, m'ap mete yonn nan chèf ou yo nan plas ou.
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.
Men, poutèt David, papa ou, mwen p'ap fè sa nan vivan ou. Se nan men pitit gason ou lan m'ap wete gouvènman an.
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.
Men, mwen p'ap wete tout peyi a nèt anba lòd li. Poutèt David, sèvitè m' lan, poutèt lavil Jerizalèm mwen chwazi pou rele m' pa m' lan, m'ap kite yon branch fanmi pou li.
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.
Se konsa, Seyè a fè Adad, yon moun nan fanmi wa Edon an, leve dèyè Salomon.
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;
Men istwa Adad: Lontan sa, nan tan David t'ap fè lagè ak peyi Edon, Joab, kòmandan lame li a, te moute nan peyi Edon al antere kadav sòlda pèp Izrayèl yo ki te mouri nan lagè a. Lèfini, yo touye dènye gason ki te nan peyi a.
16 (for Joab and all Israel abode there six months in Idumaea, until he utterly destroyed every male in Idumaea; )
Joab rete sis mwa nan peyi a ansanm ak tout lame a jouk yo fin touye dènye gason ladan l'.
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.
Lè sa a, Adad te timoun. Li te rive chape kò l' ansanm ak kèk lòt moun peyi Edon ki t'ap travay kay papa l'. Y' ale nan peyi Lejip.
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.
Yo kite lavil Madyan, yo pase lavil Paran. Antan yo la, yo pran kèk gason avèk yo, yo desann peyi Lejip bò kote wa peyi a. Farawon an ba li yon kay pou l' rete ak yon pòsyon tè pou l' travay. Lèfini li ba li manje.
19 And Ader found great favor in the sight of Pharao, and he gave him his wife's sister in marriage, the elder sister of Thekemina.
Adad sitèlman vin bon zanmi farawon an, farawon an pran bèlsè li, sè larenn Takpènès, li bay Adad li pou madanm.
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.
Madan Adad fè yon pitit gason yo te rele Genoubat. Larenn Takpenès fè elve Genoubat nan palè a kote li grandi ansanm ak tout pitit wa yo.
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.
Lè nouvèl lanmò David ak lanmò Joab rive nan peyi Lejip, tonbe nan zòrèy Adad, Adad di farawon an konsa: -Kite m' tounen nan peyi m'.
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.
Farawon an mande l': -Poukisa? Eske ou janm manke anyen isit lakay mwen kifè ou vle tounen lakay ou? Adad reponn li: -Mwen gen tou sa m' bezwen. Men se pou ou kite m' ale. Se konsa Adad tounen nan peyi l'.
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.
Bondye fè yon lòt moun leve dèyè Salomon ankò. Se te Rezon, pitit gason Elyada, ki te kouri kite lakay mèt li, Adadezè, wa peyi Soba a.
Rezon sanble yon bann gason avè l'. Se konsa li vin chèf yon bann bandi. Lè sa a, David te bat Adadezè, li touye tout moun peyi Siri ki t'ap mache avèk Adadezè. Se konsa Rezon desann lavil Damas. Li vin chèf lavil Damas.
Pandan tout rèy wa Salomon, Rezon pa t' vle wè pèp Izrayèl la. Mete sou mechanste Adad t'ap fè pèp Izrayèl la, Rezon pa t' vle wè pèp Izrayèl la menm. Rezon te vin wa nan peyi Siri.
26 And Jeroboam the son of Nabat, the Ephrathite of Sarira, the son of a widow, [was] servant of Solomon.
Yon lòt moun ki te bay Salomon do ankò, se te Jewoboram, yonn nan moun ki t'ap sèvi avèk Salomon yo. Jewoboram te pitit Nebat, yon nonm lavil Zereda nan peyi Efrayim. Manman l' te yon vèv yo te rele Sewa.
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.
Men rezon ki te pote Jewoboram bay Salomon do. Salomon t'ap fè yo ranbleye teras ki bay sou solèy leve lavil Jerizalèm lan. Li t'ap fè repare miray Lavil David, papa l'.
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.
Jewoboram te yon vanyan gason, lèfini li te konn sa li vle. Lè Salomon wè jan jenn gason an te travay rèd, li mete l' reskonsab travay kòve nan pòsyon tè ki pou fanmi pitit Jozèf yo.
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.
Yon jou, Jewoboram te fèk kite lavil Jerizalèm, li kontre sou wout li ak Akija, pwofèt lavil Silo a. Akija te gen yon rad tou nèf sou li. De mesye yo te pou kont yo sou wout la nan mitan jaden yo.
30 And Achia laid hold of his new garment that was upon him, and tore it [into] twelve pieces:
Akija wete rad nèf ki te sou li a, li chire l' fè douz moso.
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.
Lèfini, li di Jewoboam: -Pran dis moso pou ou, paske Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, voye di ou: Mwen pral wete kòmandman peyi a nan men Salomon, m'ap ba ou dis branch fanmi pou ou.
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.
Salomon pral rete ak yon sèl branch fanmi. M'ap fè sa pou li poutèt David, sèvitè m' lan, poutèt lavil Jerizalèm mwen te chwazi nan tout peyi Izrayèl pou rele m' pa m' lan.
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].
Salomon vire do ban mwen, l' al adore bondye lòt nasyon, tankou Astate, zidòl fanm moun peyi Sidon yo, Kemòch, bondye moun Moab yo, ak Milkòm, bondye moun Amon yo. Salomon pa fè sa ki byen devan je mwen, li pa mache dwat, li pa swiv lòd ak kòmandman mwen yo tankou David, papa l', te fè l' la.
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.
Men, mwen pa t' wete gouvènman tout peyi a nan men l'. M'ap kite l' gouvènen konsa jouk li mouri. M'ap fè sa pou li poutèt David, sèvitè m' lan, yon nonm mwen te chwazi, yon nonm ki te mache sou lòd ak kòmandman mwen yo.
35 But I will take the kingdom out of the hand of his son, and give you ten tribes.
Men, m'ap wete gouvènman tout peyi a nan men pitit gason l' lan. M'ap ba ou dis branch fanmi pou gouvènen.
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.
M'ap kite yon sèl branch fanmi pou pitit li a. Konsa, David, sèvitè m' lan, va toujou gen yon moun nan ras li ap gouvènen lavil Jerizalèm, lavil mwen te chwazi pou m' rete a.
37 And I will take you, and you shall reign as your soul desires, and you shall be king over Israel.
Ou menm, mwen pran ou, m'ap mete ou wa sou tout peyi Izrayèl la. Konsa, w'a chèf sou tout peyi ou vle a.
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.
Si ou fè tou sa mwen mande ou fè, si ou mache sou lòd mwen, si ou fè sa ki dwat devan je m', si ou kenbe tout lòd ak tout kòmandman mwen yo tankou David, sèvitè m' lan, te fè l' la, m'ap toujou kanpe la avè ou. Lèfini, tankou mwen te fè sa pou David, m'ap fè ou toujou gen yon moun nan fanmi ou k'ap wa apre ou. M'ap ba ou peyi Izrayèl la pou ou.
Se konsa m'ap pini moun fanmi David yo. Men, se p'ap pou tout tan.
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.
Se poutèt sa Salomon te soti pou l' touye Jewoboam. Men, Jewoboram leve, li kouri ale nan peyi Lejip, bò Chichak, wa peyi a. Li rete la jouk Salomon mouri.
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?
Se nan liv istwa Salomon an nou jwenn tout lòt bagay Salomon te fè yo ak jan li te gen bon konprann.
42 And the days [during] which Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel [were] forty years.
Salomon te wa lavil Jerizalèm, li te gouvènen tout pèp Izrayèl la pandan karantan.
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.
Lè li mouri, yo antere l' nan lavil David, papa l'. Se Woboram, pitit li, ki moute nan plas li sou fotèy la.
