1 Kings 11:4-20

4For whenH6256 SolomonH8010 was oldH2209, his wivesH802 turnedH5186 his heartH3824 awayH5186 1to followH310 otherH312 godsH430; and 2his heartH3824 was not 3whollyH8003 devotedH8003 to the LordH3068 his GodH430, as the heartH3824 of his fatherH1 DavidH1732 had been. 5For SolomonH8010 becameH1980 a followerH1980H310 of 4AshtorethH6252 the goddessH430 of the SidoniansH6722, and of 56MilcomH4445 the abhorrentH8251 idolH8251 of the AmmonitesH5984. 6So SolomonH8010 didH6213 whatH7451 wasH7451 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LordH3068, and did not followH310 the LordH3068 fullyH4390, as his fatherH1 DavidH1732 had done. 7ThenH227 SolomonH8010 builtH1129 a highH1116 placeH1116 for 7ChemoshH3645, the abhorrentH8251 idolH8251 of MoabH4124, on the mountainH2022 that is 8eastH5921H6440 of JerusalemH3389, and for 9MolechH4432, the abhorrentH8251 idolH8251 of the sonsH1121 of AmmonH5983. 8He also didH6213 the sameH3651 for allH3605 his foreignH5237 wivesH802, who burnedH6999 incenseH6999 and sacrificedH2076 to their godsH430.

9Now 10the LordH3068 was angryH599 with SolomonH8010 11becauseH3588 his heartH3824 had turnedH5186 awayH5186 from the LordH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, 12who had appearedH7200 to him twiceH6471, 10and 13had commandedH6680 him regardingH5921 thisH2088 thingH1697, that he was not to followH1980H310 otherH312 godsH430; but he did not complyH8104 withH8104 whatH834 the LordH3068 had commandedH6680. 11So the LordH3068 saidH559 to SolomonH8010, “SinceH3282H834 14you have doneH1961H5973 thisH2088, and you have not keptH8104 My covenantH1285 and My statutesH2708, whichH834 I have commandedH6680 you, 15I will certainlyH7167 tearH7167 the kingdomH4467 awayH7167 from you, and will giveH5414 it to your servantH5650. 12HoweverH389, I will not doH6213 it in your daysH3117, only for the sakeH4616 of your fatherH1 DavidH1732; but I will tearH7167 it awayH7167 from the handH3027 of your sonH1121. 13YetH7534 16I will not tearH7167 awayH7167 allH3605 the kingdomH4467, but 17I will giveH5414 oneH259 tribeH7626 to your sonH1121 for the sakeH4616 of My servantH5650 DavidH1732, and 18for the sakeH4616 of JerusalemH3389, whichH834 I have chosenH977.”

14Then the LordH3068 raisedH6965 upH6965 an adversaryH7854 against SolomonH8010, HadadH1908 the EdomiteH130; he was of the 19royalH4428 lineH2233 in EdomH112. 15For it cameH1961 aboutH1961, 20when DavidH1732 was in EdomH112 and JoabH3097 the commanderH8269 of the armyH6635 had goneH5927 upH5927 to buryH6912 those killedH2491 in battle, and had 21struckH5221 andH5221 killedH5221 everyH3605 maleH2145 in EdomH112 16(for JoabH3097 and allH3605 IsraelH3478 stayedH3427 thereH8033 for sixH8337 monthsH2320, untilH5704 he had eliminatedH3772 everyH3605 maleH2145 in EdomH112), 17that HadadH1908 fledH1272 22to EgyptH4714, he and certainH376 EdomitesH130 of his father’sH1 servantsH5650 with him, while HadadH1908 was a youngH6996 boyH5288. 18They setH6965 outH6965 from MidianH4080 and cameH935 to 23ParanH6290; and they tookH3947 menH376 with them from ParanH6290 and cameH935 to EgyptH4714, to PharaohH6547 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714, who gaveH5414 him a houseH1004 and assignedH559 him foodH3899 and gaveH5414 him landH776. 19Now HadadH1908 foundH4672 greatH3966 favorH2580 in the sightH5869 of PharaohH6547, so that he gaveH5414 him in marriageH802 the sisterH269 of his own wifeH802, the sisterH269 of TahpenesH8472 the queenH1377. 20And the sisterH269 of TahpenesH8472 gaveH3205 birthH3205 to his sonH1121 GenubathH1592, whom TahpenesH8472 weanedH1580 in Pharaoh’sH6547 houseH1004; and GenubathH1592 was in Pharaoh’sH6547 houseH1004 amongH8432 the sonsH1121 of PharaohH6547.
