Regum I 11

VULGATA	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 Rex autem Salomon adamavit mulieres alienigenas multas, filiam quoque Pharaonis, et Moabitidas, et Ammonitidas, Idumæas, et Sidonias, et Hethæas :	1 And king Solomon loved many strange women besides the daughter of Pharao, and women of Moab, and of Ammon, and of Edom, and of Sidon, and of the Hethites:
2 de gentibus super quibus dixit Dominus filiis Israël : Non ingrediemini ad eas, neque de illis ingredientur ad vestras : certissime enim avertent corda vestra ut sequamini deos earum. His itaque copulatus est Salomon ardentissimo amore.	2 Of the nations concerning which the Lord said to the children of Israel: You shall not go in unto them, neither shall any of them come in to yours: for they will most certainly turn away your heart to follow their gods. And to these was Solomon joined with a most ardent love.
3 Fueruntque ei uxores quasi reginæ septingentæ, et concubinæ trecentæ : et averterunt mulieres cor ejus.	3 And he had seven hundred wives as queens, and three hundred concubines: and the women turned away his heart.
4 Cumque jam esset senex, depravatum est cor ejus per mulieres, ut sequeretur deos alienos : nec erat cor ejus perfectum cum Domino Deo suo, sicut cor David patris ejus.	4 And when he was now old, his heart was turned away by women to follow strange gods: and his heart was not perfect with the Lord his God, as was the heart of David his father.
5 Sed colebat Salomon Astarthen deam Sidoniorum, et Moloch idolum Ammonitarum.	5 But Solomon worshipped Astarthe the goddess of the Sidonians, and Moloch the idol of the ammonites.
6 Fecitque Salomon quod non placuerat coram Domino, et non adimplevit ut sequeretur Dominum sicut David pater ejus.	6 And Solomon did that which was net pleasing before the Lord, and did not fully follow the Lord, as David his father.
7 Tunc ædificavit Salomon fanum Chamos idolo Moab in monte qui est contra Jerusalem, et Moloch idolo filiorum Ammon.	7 Then Solomon built a temple for Chamos the idol of Moab, on the hill that is over against Jerusalem, and for Moloch the idol of the children of Ammon.
8 Atque in hunc modum fecit universis uxoribus suis alienigenis, quæ adolebant thura, et immolabant diis suis.	8 And he did in this manner for all his wives that were strangers, who burnt incense, and offered sacrifice to their gods.
9 Igitur iratus est Dominus Salomoni, quod aversa esset mens ejus a Domino Deo Israël, qui apparuerat ei secundo,	9 And the Lord was angry with Solomon, because his mind was turned away from the Lord the God of Israel, who had appeared to him twice,
10 et præceperat de verbo hoc ne sequeretur deos alienos : et non custodivit quæ mandavit ei Dominus.	10 And had commanded him concerning this thing, that he should not follow strange gods: but he kept not the things which the Lord commanded him.
11 Dixit itaque Dominus Salomoni : Quia habuisti hoc apud te, et non custodisti pactum meum, et præcepta mea quæ mandavi tibi, disrumpens scindam regnum tuum, et dabo illud servo tuo.	11 The Lord therefore said to Solomon: Because thou hast done this, and hast not kept my covenant, and my precepts, which I have commanded thee, I will divide and rend thy kingdom, and will give it to thy servant.
12 Verumtamen in diebus tuis non faciam propter David patrem tuum : de manu filii tui scindam illud,	12 Nevertheless 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 nec totum regnum auferam, sed tribum unam dabo filio tuo propter David servum meum, et Jerusalem, quam elegi.	13 Neither will I take away the whole kingdom, but I will give one tribe to thy son for the sake of David my servant, and Jerusalem which I have chosen.
14 Suscitavit autem Dominus adversarium Salomoni Adad Idumæum de semine regio, qui erat in Edom.	14 And the Lord raised up an adversary to Solomon, Adad the Edomite of the king's seed, in Edom.
15 Cum enim esset David in Idumæa, et ascendisset Joab princeps militiæ ad sepeliendum eos qui fuerant interfecti, et occidisset omnem masculinum in Idumæa	15 For when David was in Edom, and Joab the general of the army was gone up to bury them that were slain, and had killed every male in Edom,
16 (sex enim mensibus ibi moratus est Joab, et omnis Israël, donec interimeret omne masculinum in Idumæa),	16 (For Joab remained there six months with all Israel, till he had slain every male in Edom,)
17 fugit Adad ipse, et viri Idumæi de servis patris ejus cum eo, ut ingrederetur Ægyptum : erat autem Adad puer parvulus.	17 Then Adad fled, he and certain Edomites, of his father's servants with him, to go into Egypt: and Adad was then a little boy.
18 Cumque surrexissent de Madian, venerunt in Pharan, tuleruntque secum viros de Pharan, et introierunt Ægyptum ad Pharaonem regem Ægypti : qui dedit ei domum, et cibos constituit, et terram delegavit.	18 And they arose out of Madian, and came into Pharan, and they took men with them from Pharan, and went into Egypt to Pharao the king of Egypt: who gave him a house, and appointed him victuals, and assigned him land.
19 Et invenit Adad gratiam coram Pharaone valde, in tantum ut daret ei uxorem sororem uxoris suæ germanam Taphnes reginæ.	19 And Adad found great favour before Pharao, insomuch that he gave him to wife, the own sister of his wife Taphnes the queen.
20 Genuitque ei soror Taphnes Genubath filium, et nutrivit eum Taphnes in domo Pharaonis : eratque Genubath habitans apud Pharaonem cum filiis ejus.	20 And the sister of Taphnes bore him his son Genubath, and Taphnes brought him up in the house of Pharao: and Genubath dwelt with Pharao among his children.
21 Cumque audisset Adad in Ægypto dormisse David cum patribus suis, et mortuum esse Joab principem militiæ, dixit Pharaoni : Dimitte me, ut vadam in terram meam.	21 And when Adad heard in Egypt that David slept with his fathers, and that Joab the general of the army was dead, he add to Pharao: Let me depart, that I may go to my own country.
22 Dixitque ei Pharao : Qua enim re apud me indiges, ut quæras ire ad terram tuam ? At ille respondit : Nulla : sed obsecro te ut dimittas me.	22 And Pharao said to him: Why, what is wanting to thee with me, that thou seekest to go to thy own country? But he answered: Nothing: yet I beseech thee to let me go.
23 Suscitavit quoque ei Deus adversarium Razon filium Eliada, qui fugerat Adarezer regem Soba dominum suum :	23 God also raised up against him an adversary, Razon the son of Eliada, 'who had fled from his master Adarezer the king of Soba:
24 et congregavit contra eum viros, et factus est princeps latronum cum interficeret eos David : abieruntque Damascum, et habitaverunt ibi, et constituerunt eum regem in Damasco :	24 And he gathered men against him, and he became a captain of robbers, when David slew them of Soba: and they went to Damascus, and dwelt there, and they made him king in Damascus.
25 eratque adversarius Israëli cunctis diebus Salomonis : et hoc est malum Adad, et odium contra Israël : regnavitque in Syria.	25 And he was an adversary to Israel, all the days of Solomon: and this is the evil of Adad, and his hatred against Israel, and he reigned in Syria.
26 Jeroboam quoque filius Nabat, Ephrathæus, de Sareda, servus Salomonis, cujus mater erat nomine Sarva, mulier vidua, levavit manum contra regem.	26 Jeroboam also the son of Nabat an Ephrathite of Sareda, a servant of Solomon, whose mother was named Sarua, a widow woman, lifted up his hand against the king.
27 Et hæc est causa rebellionis adversus eum, quia Salomon ædificavit Mello, et coæquavit voraginem civitatis David patris sui.	27 And this is the cause of his rebellion against him, for Solomon built Mello, and filled up the breach of the city of David his father.
28 Erat autem Jeroboam vir fortis et potens : vidensque Salomon adolescentem bonæ indolis et industrium, constituerat eum præfectum super tributa universæ domus Joseph.	28 And Jeroboam was a valiant and mighty man: and Solomon seeing him a young man ingenious and industrious, made him chief over the tributes of all the house of Joseph.
29 Factum est igitur in tempore illo, ut Jeroboam egrederetur de Jerusalem, et inveniret eum Ahias Silonites propheta in via, opertus pallio novo : erant autem duo tantum in agro.	29 So it came to paste at that time, that Jeroboam went out of Jerusalem, and the prophet Ahias the Silonite, clad with a new garment, found him in the way: and they two were alone in the held.
30 Apprehendensque Ahias pallium suum novum quo coopertus erat, scidit in duodecim partes.	30 And Ahias taking his new garment, wherewith he was clad, divided it into twelve parts:
31 Et ait ad Jeroboam : Tolle tibi decem scissuras : hæc enim dicit Dominus Deus Israël : Ecce ego scindam regnum de manu Salomonis, et dabo tibi decem tribus.	31 ,31And he said to Jeroboam: Take to 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 thee ten tribes.
32 Porro una tribus remanebit ei propter servum meum David, et Jerusalem civitatem, quam elegi ex omnibus tribubus Israël :	32 But one tribe shall remain to him for the sake of my servant David, and Jerusalem the city, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel:
33 eo quod dereliquerit me, et adoraverit Astarthen deam Sidoniorum, et Chamos deum Moab, et Moloch deum filiorum Ammon : et non ambulaverit in viis meis, ut faceret justitiam coram me, et præcepta mea et judicia, sicut David pater ejus.	33 Because he hath forsaken me, and hath adored Astarthe the goddess of the Sidonians, and Chamos the god of Moab, and Moloch the god of the children of Ammon: and hath not walked in my ways, to do justice before me, and to keep my precepts, and judgments as did David his father.
34 Nec auferam omne regnum de manu ejus, sed ducem ponam eum cunctis diebus vitæ suæ, propter David servum meum quem elegi, qui custodivit mandata mea et præcepta mea.	34 Yet I will not take away all the kingdom out of his hand, but I will make him prince all the days of his life, for David my servant's sake, whom I chose, who kept my commandments and my precepts.
35 Auferam autem regnum de manu filii ejus, et dabo tibi decem tribus :	35 But I will take away the kingdom out of his son's hand and will give thee ten tribes:
36 filio autem ejus dabo tribum unam, ut remaneat lucerna David servo meo cunctis diebus coram me in Jerusalem civitate, quam elegi ut esset nomen meum ibi.	36 And to his son I will give one tribe, that there may remain a lamp for my servant David before me always in Jerusalem the city which I have chosen, that my name might be there.
37 Te autem assumam, et regnabis super omnia quæ desiderat anima tua, erisque rex super Israël.	37 And I will take thee, and thou shalt reign over all that thy soul desireth, and thou shalt be king over Israel.
38 Si igitur audieris omnia quæ præcepero tibi, et ambulaveris in viis meis, et feceris quod rectum est coram me, custodiens mandata mea et præcepta mea, sicut fecit David servus meus : ero tecum, et ædificabo tibi domum fidelem, quomodo ædificavi David domum : et tradam tibi Israël :	38 If then thou wilt hearken to all that I shall command thee, and wilt walk in my ways, and do what is right before me, keeping my commandments and my precepts, as David my servant did: I will be with thee, and will build thee up a faithful house, as I built a house for David, and I will deliver Israel to thee:
39 et affligam semen David super hoc, verumtamen non cunctis diebus.	39 And I will for this afflict the seed of David, but yet not for ever.
40 Voluit ergo Salomon interficere Jeroboam : qui surrexit, et aufugit in Ægyptum ad Sesac regem Ægypti, et fuit in Ægypto usque ad mortem Salomonis.	40 Solomon therefore sought to kill Jeroboam: but he arose, and fled into Egypt to Sesac the king of Egypt, and was in Egypt till the death of Solomon.
41 Reliquum autem verborum Salomonis, et omnia quæ fecit, et sapientia ejus, ecce universa scripta sunt in libro verborum dierum Salomonis.	41 And the rest of the words of Solomon, and all that he did, and his wisdom: behold they are all written in the book of the words of the days of Solomon.
42 Dies autem quos regnavit Salomon in Jerusalem super omnem Israël, quadraginta anni sunt.	42 And the days that Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel, were forty years.
43 Dormivitque Salomon cum patribus suis, et sepultus est in civitate David patris sui : regnavitque Roboam filius ejus pro eo.	43 And Solomon slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David his father, and Roboam his son reigned in his stead.
