But king
Solomon
loved
many
strange
women
,
together with the daughter
of Pharaoh
,
women
of the Moabites
,
Ammonites
,
Edomites
,
Zidonians
,
and
Hittites
;
2
Of the nations
concerning
which
the LORD
said
unto the children
of Israel
,
Ye shall not go in
to them, neither shall they come in unto you:
for
surely
they will turn away
your heart
after
their gods
:
Solomon
clave
un
to these
in love.
3
And he
had
seven
hundred
wives
,
princesses
, and three
hundred
concubines
:
and his
wives
turned away
his heart
.
4
For it came to pass, when
Solomon
was old
,
that
his wives
turned away
his heart
after
other
gods
:
and
his heart
was not perfect
with the LORD
his God
,
as
was
the heart
of David
his father
.
5
For Solomon
went
after
Ashtoreth
the goddess
of the Zidonians
,
and
after
Milcom
the abomination
of the Ammonites
.
6
And Solomon
did
evil
in the sight
of
the LORD
,
and went not fully
after
the LORD
,
as
did
David
his father
.
7
Then
did Solomon
build
an high place
for Chemosh
,
the abomination
of Moab
,
in the hill
that
is
before
Jerusalem
,
and for Molech
,
the abomination
of the children
of Ammon
.
8
And likewise did
he
for all
his strange
wives
,
which burnt incense
and sacrificed
unto their gods
.
9
And the LORD
was angry
with Solomon
,
because
his heart
was turned
from the LORD
God
of Israel
,
which had appeared
unto him twice
,
10
And had
commanded
him
concerning
this
thing
, that he should not
go
after
other
go
ds
:
but he kept
not that which the LORD
commanded
.
11
Wherefore the LORD
said
unto Solomon
, Forasmuch as this is done of thee, and thou hast not kept
my covenant
and my statutes
,
which
I have commanded
thee, I will surely
rend
the kingdom
from thee, and will give
it to thy servant
.
12
Notwithstanding in thy days
I will not do
it for David
thy father's
sake:
but
I will rend
it out of the hand
of thy son
.
13
Howbeit
I will not rend away
all
the kingdom
;
but
will give
one
tribe
to thy son
for David
my servant's
sake, and for Jerusalem's
sake
which
I have chosen
.
14
And the LORD
stirred up
an adversary
unto Solomon
,
Hadad
the Edomite
:
he
was
of the king's
seed
in Edom.
15
For it
came
to pass, when David was in Edom,
and Joab
the captain
of the host
was gone up
to bury
the slain
,
after he had smitten
every
male
in Edom;
16
(For six
months
did Joab
remain
there
with all Israel
,
until
he had cut off
every
male
in Edom:)
17
That
Hadad
fled
, he
and certain
Edomites
of his father's
servants
with him, to go
into Egypt
;
Hadad
being
yet a little
child
.
18
And they arose
out of Midian
,
and came
to Paran
:
and they took
men
with them out of Paran
,
and they came
to Egypt
,
unto Pharaoh
king
of Egypt
;
which gave
him an house
,
and appointed
him victuals
,
and gave
him land
.
19
And Hadad
found
great
favour
in the sight
of Pharaoh
,
so that he gave
him to wife
the sister
of his own wife
,
the sister
of Tahpenes
the queen
.
20
And the sister
of Tahpenes
bare
him Genubath
his son
,
whom Tahpenes
weaned
in
Pharaoh's
house
:
and Genubath
was
in
Pharaoh's
house
hold
among
the sons
of Pharaoh
.
21
And when
Hadad
heard
in Egypt
that David
slept
with his fathers
,
and that Joab
the captain
of the host
was dead
,
Hadad
said
to Pharaoh
,
Let me depart
, that I
may go
to mine own country
.
22
Then Pharaoh
said
unto him, But
what
hast thou lacked with me, that, behold, thou seekest
to go
to thine own country? And he answered, Nothing: howbeit let me go
in any wise
.
23
And God
stirred him up
another
adversary
,
Rezon
the son
of Eliadah
,
which fled
from his lord
Hadadezer
king
of Zobah
:
24
And he gathered
men
unto him,
and became
captain
over a band
,
when David
slew
them
of Zobah
: and they
went
to Damascus
,
and dwelt
therein, and reigned
in Damascus
.
25
And he was an adversary
to
Israel
all
the days
of Solomon
, beside the mischief
that Hadad
did
: and he abhorred
Israel
,
and reigned
over
Syria
.
26
And Jeroboam
the son
of Nebat
,
an Ephrathite
of Zereda
,
Solomon's
servant
,
whose mother's
name
was
Zeruah
,
a widow
woman,
even he lifted up
his
hand
against the king
.
27
And this
was
the cause
that he lifted up
his
hand
against the king
:
Solomon
built
Millo
,
and
repaired
the breaches
of the city
of David
his father
.
28
And the man
Jeroboam
was
a mighty man
of valour
:
and Solomon
seeing
the young man
that he was industrious,
he made him ruler
over
all
the charge
of the house
of Joseph
.
29
And it
came
to pass at that time
when Jeroboam
went out
of Jerusalem
,
that the prophet
Ahijah
the Shilonite
found
him in the way
;
and he had clad
himself with a new
garment
;
and they two
were
alone in the field
:
30
And Ahijah
caught
the new
garment
that
was
on him, and rent it
in
twelve
pieces
:
31
And he said
to Jeroboam
,
Take
thee
ten
pieces
:
for
thus
saith
the LORD
,
the God
of Israel
, Behold, I will rend
the kingdom
out of the hand
of Solomon
,
and will give
ten
tribes
to thee:
32
(But he shall have one
tribe
for my servant
David's
sake, and for Jerusalem's sake, the city
which
I have chosen
out of
all
the tribes
of
Israel
:)
33
Because that they have forsaken
me, and have worshipped Ashtoreth
the god
dess
of the Zidonians
,
Chemosh
the god
of the Moabites
,
and Milcom
the god
of the children
of Ammon
,
and have not walked
in my ways
,
to do
that which is
right
in mine eyes
,
and
to keep
my statutes
and my judgments
,
as
did
David
his father
.
34
Howbeit I will not take
the
who
le
kingdom
out of his hand
:
but I will make
him prince
all
the days
of his life
for David
my servant's
sake,
who
m
I chose,
because he kept
my commandments
and my statutes
:
35
But I will take
the kingdom
out of his son's
hand
,
and will give
it unto thee,
even
ten
tribes
.
36
And unto his son
will
I
give
one
tribe
,
that David
my servant
may have
a light alway
before
me in Jerusalem
,
the city
which
I
have chosen
me to put
my name
there.
37
And I will take
thee, and thou shalt reign according to all that thy soul
desireth
,
and shalt be king
over
Israel
.
38
And it shall be,
if
thou wilt hearken
un
to all
that I command
thee, and wilt walk
in my ways
,
and do
that is
right
in my sight
,
to keep
my statutes
and my commandments
,
as David
my servant
did
; that I will be with thee, and build
thee a sure
house
,
as I built
for David
,
and will give
Israel
unto thee.
39
And I will
for
this afflict
the seed
of David
, but not
for
ever.
40
Solomon
sought
therefore to kill
Jeroboam
.
And
Jeroboam
arose
,
and fled
into Egypt
,
unto Shishak
king
of Egypt
,
and was in Egypt
until
the death
of
Solomon
.
41
And the rest
of the acts
of Solomon
,
and all that he did
,
and his wisdom
,
are
they not written
in the book
of the acts
of Solomon
?
42
And the time
that Solomon
reigned
in Jerusalem
over
all
Israel
was
forty
years
.
43
And Solomon
slept
with his fathers
,
and was buried
in the city
of David
his father
:
and Rehoboam
his son
reigned
in his stead.
