1 Kings 11

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	SMITH VAN DYKE
1 King Solomon loved many foreign women besides the daughter of Pharaoh (Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, Sidonians, and Hittites),	1 واحب الملك سليمان نساء غريبة كثيرة مع بنت فرعون موآبيات وعمونيات وادوميات وصيدونيات وحثّيات
2 from nations with which the LORD had forbidden the Israelites to intermarry, "because," he said, "they will turn your hearts to their gods." But Solomon fell in love with them.	2 من الامم الذين قال عنهم الرب لبني اسرائيل لا تدخلون اليهم وهم لا يدخلون اليكم لانهم يميلون قلوبكم وراء آلهتهم. فالتصق سليمان بهؤلاء بالمحبة.
3 He had seven hundred wives of princely rank and three hundred concubines, and his wives turned his heart.	3 وكانت له سبع مئة من النساء السيدات وثلاث مئة من السراري فامالت نساؤه قلبه.
4 When Solomon was old his wives had turned his heart to strange gods, and his heart was not entirely with the LORD, his God, as the heart of his father David had been.	4 وكان في زمان شيخوخة سليمان ان نساءه أملن قلبه وراء آلهة اخرى ولم يكن قلبه كاملا مع الرب الهه كقلب داود ابيه.
5 By adoring Astarte, the goddess of the Sidonians, and Milcom, the idol of the Ammonites,	5 فذهب سليمان وراء عشتورث الاهة الصيدونيين وملكوم رجس العمونيين.
6 Solomon did evil in the sight of the LORD; he did not follow him unreservedly as his father David had done.	6 وعمل سليمان الشر في عيني الرب ولم يتبع الرب تماما كداود ابيه.
7 Solomon then built a high place to Chemosh, the idol of Moab, and to Molech, the idol of the Ammonites, on the hill opposite Jerusalem.	7 حينئذ بنى سليمان مرتفعة لكموش رجس الموآبيين على الجبل الذي تجاه اورشليم. ولمولك رجس بني عمون.
8 He did the same for all his foreign wives who burned incense and sacrificed to their gods.	8 وهكذا فعل لجميع نسائه الغريبات اللواتي كنّ يوقدن ويذبحن لآلهتهنّ.
9 The LORD, therefore, became angry with Solomon, because his heart was turned away from the LORD, the God of Israel, who had appeared to him twice	9 فغضب الرب على سليمان لان قلبه مال عن الرب اله اسرائيل الذي تراءى له مرتين
10 (for though the LORD had forbidden him this very act of following strange gods, Solomon had not obeyed him).	10 واوصاه في هذا الامر ان لا يتبع آلهة اخرى. فلم يحفظ ما أوصى به الرب.
11 So the LORD said to Solomon: "Since this is what you want, and you have not kept my covenant and my statutes which I enjoined on you, I will deprive you of the kingdom and give it to your servant.	11 فقال الرب لسليمان من اجل ان ذلك عندك ولم تحفظ عهدي وفرائضي التي اوصيتك بها فاني امزق المملكة عنك تمزيقا واعطيها لعبدك.
12 I will not do this during your lifetime, however, for the sake of your father David; it is your son whom I will deprive.	12 الا اني لا افعل ذلك في ايامك من اجل داود ابيك بل من يد ابنك امزقها.
13 Nor will I take away the whole kingdom. I will leave your son one tribe for the sake of my servant David and of Jerusalem, which I have chosen."	13 على اني لا امزق منك المملكة كلها بل اعطي سبطا واحدا لابنك لاجل داود عبدي ولاجل اورشليم التي اخترتها
14 The LORD then raised up an adversary to Solomon: Hadad the Edomite, who was of the royal line in Edom.	14 واقام الرب خصما لسليمان هدد الادومي. كان من نسل الملك في ادوم.
15 Earlier, when David had conquered Edom, Joab, the general of the army, while going to bury the slain, put to death every male in Edom.	15 وحدث لما كان داود في ادوم عند صعود يوآب رئيس الجيش لدفن القتلى وضرب كل ذكر في ادوم.
16 Joab and all Israel remained there six months until they had killed off every male in Edom.	16 لان يوآب وكل اسرائيل اقاموا هناك ستة اشهر حتى افنوا كل ذكر في ادوم.
17 Meanwhile, Hadad, who was only a boy, fled toward Egypt with some Edomite servants of his father.	17 ان هدد هرب هو ورجال ادوميون من عبيد ابيه معه ليأتوا مصر. وكان هدد غلاما صغيرا.
18 They left Midian and passing through Paran, where they picked up additional men, they went into Egypt to Pharaoh, king of Egypt, who gave Hadad a house, appointed him rations, and assigned him land.	18 وقاموا من مديان واتوا الى فاران واخذوا معهم رجالا من فاران واتوا الى مصر الى فرعون ملك مصر فاعطاه بيتا وعيّن له طعاما واعطاه ارضا.
19 Hadad won great favor with Pharaoh, so that he gave him in marriage the sister of Queen Tahpenes, his own wife.	19 فوجد هدد نعمة في عيني فرعون جدا وزوجه اخت امرأته اخت تحفنيس الملكة.
20 Tahpenes' sister bore Hadad a son, Genubath. After his weaning, the queen kept him in Pharaoh's palace, where he then lived with Pharaoh's own sons.	20 فولدت له اخت تحفنيس جنوبث ابنه وفطمته تحفنيس في وسط بيت فرعون. وكان جنوبث في بيت فرعون بين بني فرعون.
21 When Hadad in Egypt heard that David rested with his ancestors and that Joab, the general of the army, was dead, he said to Pharaoh, "Give me leave to return to my own country."	21 فسمع هدد في مصر بان داود قد اضطجع مع آبائه وبان يوآب رئيس الجيش قد مات فقال هدد لفرعون اطلقني فانطلق الى ارضي.
22 Pharaoh said to him, "What do you lack with me, that you are seeking to return to your own country?" "Nothing," he said, "but please let me go!"	22 فقال له فرعون ماذا اعوزك عندي حتى انك تطلب الذهاب الى ارضك. فقال لا شيء وانما اطلقني
23 God raised up against Solomon another adversary, in Rezon, the son of Eliada, who had fled from his lord, Hadadezer, king of Zobah,	23 واقام الله له خصما آخر رزون بن اليداع الذي هرب من عند سيده هدد عزر ملك صوبة.
24 when David defeated them with slaughter. Rezon gathered men about him and became leader of a band, went to Damascus, settled there, and became king in Damascus.	24 فجمع اليه رجالا فصار رئيس غزاة عند قتل داود اياهم. فانطلقوا الى دمشق واقاموا بها وملكوا في دمشق.
25 He was an enemy of Israel as long as Solomon lived; this added to the harm done by Hadad, who made a rift in Israel by becoming king over Edom.	25 وكان خصما لاسرائيل كل ايام سليمان مع شرّ هدد. فكره اسرائيل وملك على ارام
26 Solomon's servant Jeroboam, son of Nebat, an Ephraimite from Zeredah with a widowed mother, Zeruah, also rebelled against the king.	26 ويربعام بن نباط افرايمي من صردة عبد لسليمان واسم امه صروعة وهي امرأة ارملة رفع يده على الملك.
27 This is why he rebelled. King Solomon was building Millo, closing up the breach of his father's City of David.	27 وهذا هو سبب رفعه يده على الملك. ان سليمان بنى القلعة وسدّ شقوق مدينة داود ابيه.
28 Jeroboam was a man of means, and when Solomon saw that he was also an industrious young man, he put him in charge of the entire labor force of the house of Joseph.	28 وكان الرجل يربعام جبار باس. فلما راى سليمان الغلام انه عامل شغلا اقامه على كل اعمال بيت يوسف.
29 At that time Jeroboam left Jerusalem, and the prophet Ahijah the Shilonite met him on the road. The two were alone in the area, and the prophet was wearing a new cloak.	29 وكان في ذلك الزمان لما خرج يربعام من اورشليم انه لاقاه اخيا الشيلوني النبي في الطريق وهو لابس رداء جديدا وهما وحدهما في الحقل.
30 Ahijah took off his new cloak, tore it into twelve pieces,	30 فقبض اخيا على الرداء الجديد الذي عليه ومزّقه اثنتي عشرة قطعة
31 and said to Jeroboam: "Take ten pieces for yourself; the LORD, the God of Israel, says: 'I will tear away the kingdom from Solomon's grasp and will give you ten of the tribes.	31 وقال ليربعام خذ لنفسك عشر قطع. لانه هكذا قال الرب اله اسرائيل هانذا امزّق المملكة من يد سليمان واعطيك عشرة اسباط.
32 One tribe shall remain to him for the sake of David my servant, and of Jerusalem, the city I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel.	32 ويكون له سبط واحد من اجل عبدي داود ومن اجل اورشليم المدينة التي اخترتها من كل اسباط اسرائيل.
33 The ten I will give you because he has forsaken me and has worshiped Astarte, goddess of the Sidonians, Chemosh, god of Moab, and Milcom, god of the Ammonites; he has not followed my ways or done what is pleasing to me according to my statutes and my decrees, as his father David did.	33 لانهم تركوني وسجدوا لعشتورث الاهة الصيدونيين ولكموش اله الموآبيين ولملكوم اله بني عمون ولم يسلكوا في طرقي ليعملوا المستقيم في عيني وفرائضي واحكامي كداود ابيه.
34 Yet I will not take any of the kingdom from Solomon himself, but will keep him a prince as long as he lives for the sake of my servant David, whom I chose, who kept my commandments and statutes.	34 ولا آخذ كل المملكة من يده بل اصيره رئيسا كل ايام حياته لاجل داود عبدي الذي اخترته الذي حفظ وصاياي وفرائضي.
35 But I will take the kingdom from his son and will give it to you--that is, the ten tribes.	35 وآخذ المملكة من يد ابنه واعطيك اياها اي الاسباط العشرة.
36 I will give his son one tribe, that my servant David may always have a lamp before me in Jerusalem, the city in which I choose to be honored.	36 واعطي ابنه سبطا واحدا ليكون سراج لداود عبدي كل الايام امامي في اورشليم المدينة التي اخترتها لنفسي لاضع اسمي فيها.
37 I will take you; you shall reign over all that you desire and shall become king of Israel.	37 وآخذك فتملك حسب كل ما تشتهي نفسك وتكون ملكا على اسرائيل.
38 If, then, you heed all that I command you, follow my ways, and please me by keeping my statutes and my commandments like my servant David, I will be with you. I will establish for you, as I did for David, a lasting dynasty; I will give Israel to you.	38 فاذا سمعت لكل ما اوصيك به وسلكت في طرقي وفعلت ما هو مستقيم في عيني وحفظت فرائضي ووصاياي كما فعل داود عبدي اكون معك وابني لك بيتا آمنا كما بنيت لداود واعطيك اسرائيل.
39 I will punish David's line for this, but not forever.'"	39 واذل نسل داود من اجل هذا ولكن لا كل الايام.
40 When Solomon tried to have Jeroboam killed for his rebellion, he escapedto King Shishak, in Egypt, where he remained until Solomon's death.	40 وطلب سليمان قتل يربعام فقام يربعام وهرب الى مصر الى شيشق ملك مصر وكان في مصر الى وفاة سليمان.
41 The rest of the acts of Solomon, with all his deeds and his wisdom, are recorded in the book of the chronicles of Solomon.	41 وبقية امور سليمان وكل ما صنع وحكمته أما هي مكتوبة في سفر امور سليمان.
42 The time that Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel was forty years.	42 وكانت الايام التي ملك فيها سليمان في اورشليم على كل اسرائيل اربعين سنة.
43 Solomon rested with his ancestors; he was buried in his father's City of David, and his son Rehoboam succeeded him as king.	43 ثم اضطجع سليمان مع آبائه ودفن في مدينة داود ابيه وملك رحبعام ابنه عوضا عنه
