1 Kings 11:14-40

And the LORD
<03068>
stirred up
<06965> (8686)
an adversary
<07854>
unto Solomon
<08010>_,
Hadad
<01908>
the Edomite
<0130>_:
he [was] of the king's
<04428>
seed
<02233>
in Edom
<0123>_.
For it came to pass, when David
<01732>
was in Edom
<0123>_,
and Joab
<03097>
the captain
<08269>
of the host
<06635>
was gone up
<05927> (8800)
to bury
<06912> (8763)
the slain
<02491>_,
after he had smitten
<05221> (8686)
every male
<02145>
in Edom
<0123>_;
(For six
<08337>
months
<02320>
did Joab
<03097>
remain
<03427> (8804)
there with all Israel
<03478>_,
until he had cut off
<03772> (8689)
every male
<02145>
in Edom
<0123>:)
That Hadad
<0111>
fled
<01272> (8799)_,
he and certain
<0582>
Edomites
<0130>
of his father's
<01>
servants
<05650>
with him, to go
<0935> (8800)
into Egypt
<04714>_;
Hadad
<01908>
[being] yet a little
<06996>
child
<05288>_.
And they arose
<06965> (8799)
out of Midian
<04080>_,
and came
<0935> (8799)
to Paran
<06290>_:
and they took
<03947> (8799)
men
<0582>
with them out of Paran
<06290>_,
and they came
<0935> (8799)
to Egypt
<04714>_,
unto Pharaoh
<06547>
king
<04428>
of Egypt
<04714>_;
which gave
<05414> (8799)
him an house
<01004>_,
and appointed
<0559> (8804)
him victuals
<03899>_,
and gave
<05414> (8804)
him land
<0776>_.
And Hadad
<01908>
found
<04672> (8799)
great
<03966>
favour
<02580>
in the sight
<05869>
of Pharaoh
<06547>_,
so that he gave
<05414> (8799)
him to wife
<0802>
the sister
<0269>
of his own wife
<0802>_,
the sister
<0269>
of Tahpenes
<08472>
the queen
<01377>_.
And the sister
<0269>
of Tahpenes
<08472>
bare
<03205> (8799)
him Genubath
<01592>
his son
<01121>_,
whom Tahpenes
<08472>
weaned
<01580> (8799)
in
<08432>
Pharaoh's
<06547>
house
<01004>_:
and Genubath
<01592>
was in Pharaoh's
<06547>
household
<01004>
among
<08432>
the sons
<01121>
of Pharaoh
<06547>_.
And when Hadad
<01908>
heard
<08085> (8804)
in Egypt
<04714>
that David
<01732>
slept
<07901> (8804)
with his fathers
<01>_,
and that Joab
<03097>
the captain
<08269>
of the host
<06635>
was dead
<04191> (8804)_,
Hadad
<01908>
said
<0559> (8799)
to Pharaoh
<06547>_,
Let me depart
<07971> (8761)_,
that I may go
<03212> (8799)
to mine own country
<0776>_.
{Let...: Heb. Send me away}
Then Pharaoh
<06547>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, But what hast thou lacked
<02638>
with me, that, behold, thou seekest
<01245> (8764)
to go
<03212> (8800)
to thine own country
<0776>_?
And he answered
<0559> (8799)_,
Nothing: howbeit let me go
<07971> (8762)
in any wise
<07971> (8763)_.
{Nothing: Heb. Not}
And God
<0430>
stirred him up
<06965> (8686)
[another] adversary
<07854>_,
Rezon
<07331>
the son
<01121>
of Eliadah
<0450>_,
which fled
<01272> (8804)
from his lord
<0113>
Hadadezer
<01909>
king
<04428>
of Zobah
<06678>_:
And he gathered
<06908> (8799)
men
<0582>
unto him, and became captain
<08269>
over a band
<01416>_,
when David
<01732>
slew
<02026> (8800)
them [of Zobah]: and they went
<03212> (8799)
to Damascus
<01834>_,
and dwelt
<03427> (8799)
therein, and reigned
<04427> (8799)
in Damascus
<01834>_.
And he was an adversary
<07854>
to Israel
<03478>
all the days
<03117>
of Solomon
<08010>_,
beside the mischief
<07451>
that Hadad
<01908>
[did]: and he abhorred
<06973> (8799)
Israel
<03478>_,
and reigned
<04427> (8799)
over Syria
<0758>_.
And Jeroboam
<03379>
the son
<01121>
of Nebat
<05028>_,
an Ephrathite
<0673>
of Zereda
<06868>_,
Solomon's
<08010>
servant
<05650>_,
whose mother's
<0517>
name
<08034>
[was] Zeruah
<06871>_,
a widow
<0490>
woman
<0802>_,
even he lifted up
<07311> (8686)
[his] hand
<03027>
against the king
<04428>_.
And this [was] the cause
<01697>
that he lifted up
<07311> (8689)
[his] hand
<03027>
against the king
<04428>_:
Solomon
<08010>
built
<01129> (8804)
Millo
<04407>_,
[and] repaired
<05462> (8804)
the breaches
<06556>
of the city
<05892>
of David
<01732>
his father
<01>_.
{repaired: Heb. closed}
And the man
<0376>
Jeroboam
<03379>
[was] a mighty man
<01368>
of valour
<02428>_:
and Solomon
<08010>
seeing
<07200> (8799)
the young man
<05288>
that he was industrious
<06213> (8802) <04399>_,
he made him ruler
<06485> (8686)
over all the charge
<05447>
of the house
<01004>
of Joseph
<03130>_.
{was industrious: Heb. did work} {charge: Heb. burden}
And it came to pass at that time
<06256>
when Jeroboam
<03379>
went out
<03318> (8804)
of Jerusalem
<03389>_,
that the prophet
<05030>
Ahijah
<0281>
the Shilonite
<07888>
found
<04672> (8799)
him in the way
<01870>_;
and he had clad
<03680> (8693)
himself with a new
<02319>
garment
<08008>_;
and they two
<08147>
[were] alone in the field
<07704>_:
And Ahijah
<0281>
caught
<08610> (8799)
the new
<02319>
garment
<08008>
that [was] on him, and rent
<07167> (8799)
it [in] twelve
<08147> <06240>
pieces
<07168>_:
And he said
<0559> (8799)
to Jeroboam
<03379>_,
Take
<03947> (8798)
thee ten
<06235>
pieces
<07168>_:
for thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_,
the God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_,
Behold, I will rend
<07167> (8802)
the kingdom
<04467>
out of the hand
<03027>
of Solomon
<08010>_,
and will give
<05414> (8804)
ten
<06235>
tribes
<07626>
to thee:
(But he shall have one
<0259>
tribe
<07626>
for my servant
<05650>
David's
<01732>
sake, and for Jerusalem's
<03389>
sake, the city
<05892>
which I have chosen
<0977> (8804)
out of all the tribes
<07626>
of Israel
<03478>:)
Because that they have forsaken
<05800> (8804)
me, and have worshipped
<07812> (8691)
Ashtoreth
<06253>
the goddess
<0430>
of the Zidonians
<06722>_,
Chemosh
<03645>
the god
<0430>
of the Moabites
<04124>_,
and Milcom
<04445>
the god
<0430>
of the children
<01121>
of Ammon
<05983>_,
and have not walked
<01980> (8804)
in my ways
<01870>_,
to do
<06213> (8800)
[that which is] right
<03477>
in mine eyes
<05869>_,
and [to keep] my statutes
<02708>
and my judgments
<04941>_,
as [did] David
<01732>
his father
<01>_.
Howbeit I will not take
<03947> (8799)
the whole kingdom
<04467>
out of his hand
<03027>_:
but I will make
<07896> (8799)
him prince
<05387>
all the days
<03117>
of his life
<02416>
for David
<01732>
my servant's
<05650>
sake, whom I chose
<0977> (8804)_,
because he kept
<08104> (8804)
my commandments
<04687>
and my statutes
<02708>_:
But I will take
<03947> (8804)
the kingdom
<04410>
out of his son's
<01121>
hand
<03027>_,
and will give
<05414> (8804)
it unto thee, [even] ten
<06235>
tribes
<07626>_.
And unto his son
<01121>
will I give
<05414> (8799)
one
<0259>
tribe
<07626>_,
that David
<01732>
my servant
<05650>
may have a light
<05216>
alway
<03117>
before
<06440>
me in Jerusalem
<03389>_,
the city
<05892>
which I have chosen
<0977> (8804)
me to put
<07760> (8800)
my name
<08034>
there. {light: Heb. lamp, or, candle}
And I will take
<03947> (8799)
thee, and thou shalt reign
<04427> (8804)
according to all that thy soul
<05315>
desireth
<0183> (8762)_,
and shalt be king
<04428>
over Israel
<03478>_.
And it shall be, if thou wilt hearken
<08085> (8799)
unto all that I command
<06680> (8762)
thee, and wilt walk
<01980> (8804)
in my ways
<01870>_,
and do
<06213> (8804)
[that is] right
<03477>
in my sight
<05869>_,
to keep
<08104> (8800)
my statutes
<02708>
and my commandments
<04687>_,
as David
<01732>
my servant
<05650>
did
<06213> (8804)_;
that I will be with thee, and build
<01129> (8804)
thee a sure
<0539> (8737)
house
<01004>_,
as I built
<01129> (8804)
for David
<01732>_,
and will give
<05414> (8804)
Israel
<03478>
unto thee.
And I will for this afflict
<06031> (8762)
the seed
<02233>
of David
<01732>_,
but not for ever
<03117>_.
Solomon
<08010>
sought
<01245> (8762)
therefore to kill
<04191> (8687)
Jeroboam
<03379>_.
And Jeroboam
<03379>
arose
<06965> (8799)_,
and fled
<01272> (8799)
into Egypt
<04714>_,
unto Shishak
<07895>
king
<04428>
of Egypt
<04714>_,
and was in Egypt
<04714>
until the death
<04194>
of Solomon
<08010>_.
