1 Kings 11:14-22
14And Jehovah raisedH6965 up an adversaryH7854 unto SolomonH8010, HadadH1908 the EdomiteH130: he was of the king’sH4428 seedH2233 in EdomH123. 15For it came to pass, when DavidH1732 wasH1961 in EdomH123, and JoabH3097 the captain of the hostH6635 wasH1961 goneH5927 up to buryH6912 the slain, and had smitten every maleH2145 in EdomH123 16(for JoabH3097 and all IsraelH3478 remainedH3427 there sixH8337 monthsH2320, until he had cutH3772 off every maleH2145 in EdomH123); 17that HadadH1908 fledH1272, he and certain EdomitesH130 of his father’sH1 servantsH5650 with him, to goH935 into EgyptH4714, HadadH1908 being yet a littleH6996 child. 18And they aroseH6965 out of MidianH4080, and cameH935 to ParanH6290; and they tookH3947 menH376 with them out of ParanH6290, and they cameH935 to EgyptH4714, unto PharaohH6547 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714, who gaveH5414 him a houseH1004, and appointed him victuals, and gaveH5414 him landH776. 19And HadadH1908 foundH4672 great favorH2580 in the sight of PharaohH6547, so that he gaveH5414 him to wifeH802 the sisterH269 of his ownH5869 wifeH802, the sisterH269 of TahpenesH8472 the queen. 20And the sisterH269 of TahpenesH8472 bare him GenubathH1592 his sonH1121, whom TahpenesH8472 weanedH1580 in Pharaoh’s houseH1004; and GenubathH1592 wasH1961 in Pharaoh’s houseH1004 among the sonsH1121 of PharaohH6547. 21And when HadadH1908 heardH8085 in EgyptH4714 that DavidH1732 slept with his fathersH1, and that JoabH3097 the captain of the hostH6635 was deadH4191, HadadH1908 saidH559 to PharaohH6547, Let me depart, that I may goH7971 to mine own country. 22Then PharaohH6547 saidH559 unto him, But what hast thou lackedH2638 with me, that, behold, thou seekest to goH7971 to thine own country? And he answered, Nothing: howbeit only let me depart.
