1 Kings 11

NEW JERUSALEM	LXX
1 King Solomon loved many foreign women: not only Pharaoh's daughter but Moabites, Edomites,Sidonians and Hittites,	1 και ο βασιλευς σαλωμων ην φιλογυναιος και ησαν αυτω αρχουσαι επτακοσιαι και παλλακαι τριακοσιαι και ελαβεν γυναικας αλλοτριας και την θυγατερα φαραω μωαβιτιδας αμμανιτιδας συρας και ιδουμαιας χετταιας και αμορραιας
2 from those peoples of whom Yahweh had said to the Israelites, 'You are not to go among them northey among you, or they wil be sure to sway your hearts to their own gods.' But Solomon was deeply attached tothem.	2 εκ των εθνων ων απειπεν κυριος τοις υιοις ισραηλ ουκ εισελευσεσθε εις αυτους και αυτοι ουκ εισελευσονται εις υμας μη εκκλινωσιν τας καρδιας υμων οπισω ειδωλων αυτων εις αυτους εκολληθη σαλωμων του αγαπησαι
3 He had seven hundred wives of royal rank and three hundred concubines.	3 -
4 When Solomon grew old his wives swayed his heart to other gods; and his heart was not whol y withYahweh his God as his father David's had been.	4 και εγενηθη εν καιρω γηρους σαλωμων και ουκ ην η καρδια αυτου τελεια μετα κυριου θεου αυτου καθως η καρδια δαυιδ του πατρος αυτου και εξεκλιναν αι γυναικες αι αλλοτριαι την καρδιαν αυτου οπισω θεων αυτων
5 Solomon became a fol ower of Astarte, the goddess of the Sidonians, and of Milcom, the Ammoniteabomination.	5 τοτε ωκοδομησεν σαλωμων υψηλον τω χαμως ειδωλω μωαβ και τω βασιλει αυτων ειδωλω υιων αμμων
6 He did what was displeasing to Yahweh, and was not a wholehearted fol ower of Yahweh, as his fatherDavid had been.	6 και τη ασταρτη βδελυγματι σιδωνιων
7 Then it was that Solomon built a high place for Chemosh, the abomination of Moab, on the mountain tothe east of Jerusalem, and to Milcom, the abomination of the Ammonites.	7 και ουτως εποιησεν πασαις ταις γυναιξιν αυτου ταις αλλοτριαις εθυμιων και εθυον τοις ειδωλοις αυτων
8 He did the same for al his foreign wives, who offered incense and sacrifice to their gods.	8 και εποιησεν σαλωμων το πονηρον ενωπιον κυριου ουκ επορευθη οπισω κυριου ως δαυιδ ο πατηρ αυτου
9 Yahweh was angry with Solomon because his heart had turned away from Yahweh, God of Israel, whohad twice appeared to him	9 και ωργισθη κυριος επι σαλωμων οτι εξεκλινεν καρδιαν αυτου απο κυριου θεου ισραηλ του οφθεντος αυτω δις
10 and had forbidden him to fol ow other gods; but he did not carry out Yahweh's order.	10 και εντειλαμενου αυτω υπερ του λογου τουτου το παραπαν μη πορευθηναι οπισω θεων ετερων και φυλαξασθαι ποιησαι α ενετειλατο αυτω κυριος ο θεος
11 Yahweh therefore said to Solomon, 'Since you have behaved like this and have not kept my covenantor the laws which I laid down for you, I shall tear the kingdom away from you and give it to one of your servants.	11 και ειπεν κυριος προς σαλωμων ανθ' ων εγενετο ταυτα μετα σου και ουκ εφυλαξας τας εντολας μου και τα προσταγματα μου α ενετειλαμην σοι διαρρησσων διαρρηξω την βασιλειαν σου εκ χειρος σου και δωσω αυτην τω δουλω σου
12 For your father David's sake, however, I shal not do this during your lifetime, but shal tear it out ofyour son's hands.	12 πλην εν ταις ημεραις σου ου ποιησω αυτα δια δαυιδ τον πατερα σου εκ χειρος υιου σου λημψομαι αυτην
13 Even so, I shall not tear the whole kingdom from him. For the sake of my servant David, and for thesake of Jerusalem which I have chosen, I shal leave your son one tribe.'	13 πλην ολην την βασιλειαν ου μη λαβω σκηπτρον εν δωσω τω υιω σου δια δαυιδ τον δουλον μου και δια ιερουσαλημ την πολιν ην εξελεξαμην
14 Yahweh raised an enemy against Solomon, Hadad the Edomite, of the kingly stock of Edom.	14 και ηγειρεν κυριος σαταν τω σαλωμων τον αδερ τον ιδουμαιον και τον εσρωμ υιον ελιαδαε τον εν ραεμμαθ αδραζαρ βασιλεα σουβα κυριον αυτου και συνηθροισθησαν επ' αυτον ανδρες και ην αρχων συστρεμματος και προκατελαβετο την δαμασεκ και ησαν σαταν τω ισραηλ πασας τας ημερας σαλωμων και αδερ ο ιδουμαιος εκ του σπερματος της βασιλειας εν ιδουμαια
15 After David had crushed Edom, Joab the army commander had gone to bury the dead and hadslaughtered the entire male population of Edom	15 και εγενετο εν τω εξολεθρευσαι δαυιδ τον εδωμ εν τω πορευθηναι ιωαβ αρχοντα της στρατιας θαπτειν τους τραυματιας εκοψαν παν αρσενικον εν τη ιδουμαια
16 (Joab stayed there with al Israel for six months until he had exterminated the entire male populationof Edom),	16 οτι εξ μηνας ενεκαθητο εκει ιωαβ και πας ισραηλ εν τη ιδουμαια εως οτου εξωλεθρευσεν παν αρσενικον εκ της ιδουμαιας
17 but Hadad with a number of Edomites in his father's service had fled to Egypt. Hadad had been only aboy at the time.	17 και απεδρα αδερ αυτος και παντες ανδρες ιδουμαιοι των παιδων του πατρος αυτου μετ' αυτου και εισηλθον εις αιγυπτον και αδερ παιδαριον μικρον
18 They set out from Midian, and on reaching Paran, took a number of men from Paran with them andwent on to Egypt, to Pharaoh the king of Egypt, who provided him with a house, undertook to maintain him, andassigned him an estate.	18 και ανιστανται ανδρες εκ της πολεως μαδιαμ και ερχονται εις φαραν και λαμβανουσιν ανδρας μετ' αυτων και ερχονται προς φαραω βασιλεα αιγυπτου και εισηλθεν αδερ προς φαραω και εδωκεν αυτω οικον και αρτους διεταξεν αυτω
19 Hadad became a great favourite of Pharaoh who gave him his own wife's sister in marriage, the sisterof the Great Lady Tahpenes.	19 και ευρεν αδερ χαριν εναντιον φαραω σφοδρα και εδωκεν αυτω γυναικα αδελφην της γυναικος αυτου αδελφην θεκεμινας την μειζω
20 The sister of Tahpenes bore him his son Genubath whom Tahpenes brought up in Pharaoh's palace,Genubath living in Pharaoh's palace with Pharaoh's own children.	20 και ετεκεν αυτω η αδελφη θεκεμινας τω αδερ τον γανηβαθ υιον αυτης και εξεθρεψεν αυτον θεκεμινα εν μεσω υιων φαραω και ην γανηβαθ εν μεσω υιων φαραω
21 But when news reached Hadad in Egypt that David had fal en asleep with his ancestors and that Joabthe army commander was dead, he said to Pharaoh, 'Give me leave to go that I may return to my own country.'	21 και αδερ ηκουσεν εν αιγυπτω οτι κεκοιμηται δαυιδ μετα των πατερων αυτου και οτι τεθνηκεν ιωαβ ο αρχων της στρατιας και ειπεν αδερ προς φαραω εξαποστειλον με και αποστρεψω εις την γην μου
22 'What do you lack here with me,' Pharaoh said, 'for you to want to go back to your country?' 'Nothing,'he replied, 'but please let me go.'Hence the harm which Hadad caused: he loathed Israel and ruled Edom.	22 και ειπεν φαραω τω αδερ τινι συ ελαττονη μετ' εμου και ιδου συ ζητεις απελθειν εις την γην σου και ειπεν αυτω αδερ οτι εξαποστελλων εξαποστελεις με και ανεστρεψεν αδερ εις την γην αυτου
23 God raised a second enemy against Solomon, Rezon son of Eliada. He had fled from his master,Hadadezer king of Zobah.	23 -
24 A number of men having ral ied to him, he became leader of a marauding band (which was thenmassacred by David). Rezon captured Damascus and settled there and became king of Damascus.	24 -
25 He was hostile to Israel as long as Solomon lived.	25 αυτη η κακια ην εποιησεν αδερ και εβαρυθυμησεν εν ισραηλ και εβασιλευσεν εν γη εδωμ
26 Jeroboam was the son of Nebat, an Ephraimite from Zeredah; the name of his mother, a widow, wasZeruah; he was in Solomon's service but revolted against the king.	26 και ιεροβοαμ υιος ναβατ ο εφραθι εκ της σαριρα υιος γυναικος χηρας δουλος σαλωμων
27 This is the account of his revolt. Solomon was building the Mil o and closing the breach in the City ofDavid his father.	27 και τουτο το πραγμα ως επηρατο χειρας επι βασιλεα σαλωμων ωκοδομησεν την ακραν συνεκλεισεν τον φραγμον της πολεως δαυιδ του πατρος αυτου
28 Now this Jeroboam was a man of great energy; Solomon, noticing how the young man set about hiswork, put him in charge of al the forced labour of the House of Joseph.	28 και ο ανθρωπος ιεροβοαμ ισχυρος δυναμει και ειδεν σαλωμων το παιδαριον οτι ανηρ εργων εστιν και κατεστησεν αυτον επι τας αρσεις οικου ιωσηφ
29 One day when Jeroboam had gone out of Jerusalem, the prophet Ahijah of Shiloh accosted him onthe road. Ahijah was wearing a new cloak; the two of them were in the open country by themselves.	29 και εγενηθη εν τω καιρω εκεινω και ιεροβοαμ εξηλθεν εξ ιερουσαλημ και ευρεν αυτον αχιας ο σηλωνιτης ο προφητης εν τη οδω και απεστησεν αυτον εκ της οδου και ο αχιας περιβεβλημενος ιματιω καινω και αμφοτεροι εν τω πεδιω
30 Ahijah took the new cloak which he was wearing and tore it into twelve strips,	30 και επελαβετο αχια του ιματιου αυτου του καινου του επ' αυτω και διερρηξεν αυτο δωδεκα ρηγματα
31 saying to Jeroboam: 'Take ten strips for yourself, for Yahweh, God of Israel, says this, "I am going totear the kingdom from Solomon's hand and give ten tribes to you.	31 και ειπεν τω ιεροβοαμ λαβε σεαυτω δεκα ρηγματα οτι ταδε λεγει κυριος ο θεος ισραηλ ιδου εγω ρησσω την βασιλειαν εκ χειρος σαλωμων και δωσω σοι δεκα σκηπτρα
32 He wil keep one tribe for the sake of my servant David and for the sake of Jerusalem, the city which Ihave chosen out of al the tribes of Israel;	32 και δυο σκηπτρα εσονται αυτω δια τον δουλον μου δαυιδ και δια ιερουσαλημ την πολιν ην εξελεξαμην εν αυτη εκ πασων φυλων ισραηλ
33 for he has forsaken me to worship Astarte the goddess of the Sidonians, Chemosh the god of Moab,Milcom the god of the Ammonites; he has not fol owed my ways by doing what I regard as right, or by keepingmy laws and ordinances as his father David did.	33 ανθ' ων κατελιπεν με και εποιησεν τη ασταρτη βδελυγματι σιδωνιων και τω χαμως και τοις ειδωλοις μωαβ και τω βασιλει αυτων προσοχθισματι υιων αμμων και ουκ επορευθη εν ταις οδοις μου του ποιησαι το ευθες ενωπιον εμου ως δαυιδ ο πατηρ αυτου
34 But it is not from his hands that I wil take the kingdom, since I have made him a prince for as long ashe lives, for the sake of my servant David who kept my commandments and laws.	34 και ου μη λαβω ολην την βασιλειαν εκ χειρος αυτου διοτι αντιτασσομενος αντιταξομαι αυτω πασας τας ημερας της ζωης αυτου δια δαυιδ τον δουλον μου ον εξελεξαμην αυτον
35 I shal , however, take the kingdom from the hand of his son, and I shal give it to you, that is, the tentribes.	35 και λημψομαι την βασιλειαν εκ χειρος του υιου αυτου και δωσω σοι τα δεκα σκηπτρα
36 I shal give one tribe to his son, so that my servant David may always have a lamp in my presence inJerusalem, the city which I have chosen as a dwel ing-place for my name.	36 τω δε υιω αυτου δωσω τα δυο σκηπτρα οπως η θεσις τω δουλω μου δαυιδ πασας τας ημερας ενωπιον εμου εν ιερουσαλημ τη πολει ην εξελεξαμην εμαυτω του θεσθαι ονομα μου εκει
37 You nonetheless I shal appoint to rule over as much as you wish, and you will be king of Israel.	37 και σε λημψομαι και βασιλευσεις εν οις επιθυμει η ψυχη σου και συ εση βασιλευς επι τον ισραηλ
38 If you listen to al my orders and follow my ways, by doing what I regard as right and by keeping mylaws and commandments as my servant David did, then I shal be with you and shal build you as enduring adynasty as the one which I built for David. I shall give Israel to you,	38 και εσται εαν φυλαξης παντα οσα αν εντειλωμαι σοι και πορευθης εν ταις οδοις μου και ποιησης το ευθες ενωπιον εμου του φυλαξασθαι τας εντολας μου και τα προσταγματα μου καθως εποιησεν δαυιδ ο δουλος μου και εσομαι μετα σου και οικοδομησω σοι οικον πιστον καθως ωκοδομησα τω δαυιδ
39 and I shall humble the descendants of David, but not for ever." '	39 -
40 Solomon tried to kil Jeroboam but he made off and fled to Egypt, to Shishak king of Egypt, and heremained in Egypt until Solomon's death.	40 και εζητησεν σαλωμων θανατωσαι τον ιεροβοαμ και ανεστη και απεδρα εις αιγυπτον προς σουσακιμ βασιλεα αιγυπτου και ην εν αιγυπτω εως ου απεθανεν σαλωμων
41 The rest of the history of Solomon, his entire career, his wisdom, is this not recorded in the Book ofthe Annals of Solomon?	41 και τα λοιπα των ρηματων σαλωμων και παντα οσα εποιησεν και πασαν την φρονησιν αυτου ουκ ιδου ταυτα γεγραπται εν βιβλιω ρηματων σαλωμων
42 Solomon's reign in Jerusalem over al Israel lasted forty years.	42 και αι ημεραι ας εβασιλευσεν σαλωμων εν ιερουσαλημ τεσσαρακοντα ετη
43 When Solomon fel asleep with his ancestors, he was buried in the City of David his father; his sonRehoboam succeeded him.	43 και εκοιμηθη σαλωμων μετα των πατερων αυτου και εθαψαν αυτον εν πολει δαυιδ του πατρος αυτου και εγενηθη ως ηκουσεν ιεροβοαμ υιος ναβατ και αυτου ετι οντος εν αιγυπτω ως εφυγεν εκ προσωπου σαλωμων και εκαθητο εν αιγυπτω κατευθυνει και ερχεται εις την πολιν αυτου εις την γην σαριρα την εν ορει εφραιμ και ο βασιλευς σαλωμων εκοιμηθη μετα των πατερων αυτου και εβασιλευσεν ροβοαμ υιος αυτου αντ' αυτου
