1 Kings 11:17-22

17that HadadH1908 fledH1272, he and certain EdomitesH130 of his father's servantsH5650 with him, to goH935 into EgyptH4714, HadadH1908 being yet a littleH6996 child.

18And they aroseH6965 out of MidianH4080, and cameH935 to ParanH6290, and tookH3947 menH376 with them out of ParanH6290, and they cameH935 to EgyptH4714, to PharaohH6547 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714; who gaveH5414 him a houseH1004, and appointed him victuals, and gaveH5414 him landH776.

19And HadadH1908 foundH4672 great favour in the sight of PharaohH6547, and he gaveH5414 him as wifeH802 the sisterH269 of his ownH5869 wifeH802, the sisterH269 of TahpenesH8472 the queen.

20And the sisterH269 of TahpenesH8472 boreH3205 him GenubathH1592 his sonH1121; and TahpenesH8472 broughtH3205 him up in Pharaoh's houseH1004; and GenubathH1592 wasH1961 in Pharaoh's householdH1004, among the sonsH1121 of PharaohH6547.

21And HadadH1908 heardH8085 in EgyptH4714 that DavidH1732 slept with his fathersH1, and that JoabH3097 the captain of the hostH6635 was deadH4191; and HadadH1908 saidH559 to PharaohH6547, Let me depart, that I may goH7971 to mine own country.

22And PharaohH6547 saidH559 to him, What then dost thou lackH2638 with me, that behold, thou desirest to goH7971 to thine own country? And he saidH559, Nothing; but in any case let me depart.
