11 Otiia he tini nga wahine ke i arohaina e Kingi Horomona, he Moapi, he Amoni, he Eromi, he Haironi, he Hiti, me te tamahine ano a Parao;
2 No nga iwi i mea ra a Ihowa ki nga tama a Iharaira, kaua e haere atu ki a ratou, kaua hoki ratou e haere mai ki a koutou: he pono ma ratou o koutou ngakau e whakaanga ke ki te whai i o ratou atua: piri tonu, aroha tonu a Horomona ki enei.
3 Na e whitu rau ana wahine rangatira, e toru rau nga wahine iti: a whakaanga ketia ana tona ngakau e ana wahine.
4 Na, koroheke rawa ake a Horomona, kua whakaanga ketia tona ngakau e ana wahine, kua whai i nga atua ke; kihai hoki tona ngakau i tapatahi ki a Ihowa, ki tona Atua, kihai i rite ki te ngakau o Rawiri, o tona papa.
5 I haere hoki a Horomona i whai i a Ahatorete atua o nga Haironi, i a Mirikomo hoki, i te mea whakarihariha a nga Amoni.
6 Na kua he ta Horomona mahi ki te aroaro o Ihowa, kihai hoki i anga nui ki te whai i a Ihowa, kihai i pera me tona papa, me Rawiri.
7 Na ka hanga e Horomona he wahi tiketike mo ta Moapa mea whakarihariha, mo Kemoho, ki runga ki te maunga e anga ana ki Hiruharama; mo Moreke hoki, mo te mea whakarihariha a nga tama a Amona.
8 Pera tonu tana i mea ai mo ana wahine ke katoa, i tahu whakakakara nei, i patu whakahere hoki ki o ratou atua.
9 Na ka riri a Ihowa ki a Horomona, no te mea kua anga ke tona ngakau i a Ihowa, i te Atua o Iharaira, ka rua nei ona putanga ki a ia,
10 Me te ako i tenei kupu ki a ia kia kaua ia e haere ki te whai i nga atua ke: otiia kihai i mau i a ia ta Ihowa i whakahau ai.
11 Na reira ka mea a Ihowa ki a Horomona, I te mea ka penei tau mahi, kahore nei i mau i a koe taku kawenata me taku tikanga i akona e ahau ki a koe, ka haea rawatia atu e ahau te kingitanga i a koe, a ka hoatu ki tau tangata.
12 Otiia e kore tenei e meatia e ahau i ou ra, he whakaaro hoki ki tou papa, ki a Rawiri: ka haea atu ia e ahau i te ringa o tau tama.
13 Otiia e kore e haea atu e ahau te kingitanga katoa; kotahi te iwi e hoatu e ahau ki tau tama, he whakaaro ki a Rawiri, ki taku pononga, ki Hiruharama i whiriwhiria nei e ahau.
14 Na ka whakaarahia ake e Ihowa he hoariri mo Horomona, ko Harara Eromi: he uri ia no te kingi i Eroma.
15 Tera, i a Rawiri i Eroma, ka haere atu a Ioapa rangatira o te ope ki te tanu i te hunga i patua, kua oti hoki nga tane katoa o Eroma te patu e ia;
16 E ono hoki nga marama i noho ai a Ioapa ratou ko Iharaira katoa ki reira, a poto noa nga tane katoa o Eroma te hautope atu;
17 Na ka rere a Harara ratou ko etahi Eromi, he tangata na tona papa, haere ana ki Ihipa: a e nohinohi tonu ana a Harara.
18 A ka whakatika atu ratou i Miriana, a ka tae ki Parana: na ka tangohia e ratou etahi tangata o Parana hei hoa mo ratou, a haere ana ki Ihipa ki a Parao kingi o Ihipa; a na tera i hoatu he whare mona, i whakarite he kai mana; i hoatu ano he whenu a ki a ia.
19 Na ka manakohia nuitia a Harara e Parao, a hoatu ana e ia hei wahine mana te teina o tana wahine ake, te teina o te Kuini, o Tahapene.
20 Na ka whanau he tama mana i te teina o Tahapene, ko Kenupata, a na Tahapene ano i whakamutu tana kai u i roto i te whare o Parao: na noho ana a Kenupata i te whare o Parao i roto i nga tama a Parao.
21 A, i te rongonga o Harara i Ihipa, kua takoto a Rawiri ki ona matua, kua mate hoki a Ioapa rangatira ope, ka mea a Harara ki a Parao, Tukua ahau kia haere ki toku whenua.
22 Na ka mea a Parao ki a ia, I hapa koe i te aha i a koe i ahau nei, i whai ai koe kia haere ki tou whenua? Na ko tana kianga, Kahore: he ahakoa ra tukua ahau kia haere.
23 I ara ano i te Atua he hoariri mona, a Retona tama a Eriara, i rere nei i tona ariki i a Hararetere kingi o Topa.
24 Na ka huihuia e ia etahi tangata, a ka meinga ia hei rangatira ropu, i te mea e patua ana ratou e Rawiri: na haere ana ratou ki Ramahiku, a noho ana i reira, a ko ratou hei kingi mo Ramahiku.
25 A he hoariri ia ki a Iharaira i nga ra katoa o Horomona, haunga hoki ta Harara kino i mea ai: heoi whakarihariha ana ia ki a Iharaira, ko ia ano te kingi o Hiria.
26 Me Ieropoama ano tama a Nepata, he Eparati, no Terera, he tangata na Horomona, ko te ingoa o tona whaea, ko Terua, he wahine pouaru, i ara ano tona ringa ki te kingi.
27 A ko te take tenei i ara ai tona ringa ki te kingi: e hanga ana a Horomona i Miro, e tutaki ana i nga wahi pakaru o te pa o tona papa, o Rawiri.
28 Na he marohirohi a Ieropoama, he toa: a ka kite a Horomona i taua taitama he uaua ki te mahi, na meinga ana ia e ia hei kaitirotiro mo nga mahi katoa a te whare o Hohepa.
29 Na i taua wa ka puta a Ieropoama i Hiruharama, a ka tutaki a Ahia Hironi, te poropiti ki a ia i te ara; na kua kakahuria e Ahia he kakahu hou; a ko raua tokorua anake i te parae.
30 Na ka hopukia e Ahia tona kakahu hou, haea ana kia tekau ma rua nga wahi:
31 A ka mea atu ia ki a Ieropoama, kia tekau nga wahi e tangohia e koe mau: ko te kupu hoki tenei a Ihowa, a te Atua o Iharaira, Nana, ka haea e ahau te kingitanga i te ringa o Horomona, a tekau nga iwi e hoatu ki a koe;
32 Kotahi ia te iwi mana; he whakaaro ki taku pononga, ki a Rawiri, he whakaaro ki Hiruharama, ki te pa i whiriwhiria e ahau i roto i nga iwi katoa o Iharaira;
33 Mo ratou i whakarere i ahau, a koropiko ana ki a Ahatorete atua o nga Haironi, ki a Kemoho atua o nga Moapi, ki a Mirikomo atua o nga tama a Amona; kihai hoki i haere i aku ara, i mahi i te mea tika ki taku titiro, i pupuri hoki i aku tikanga, i aku whakaritenga, a kihai i pera me tona papa, me Rawiri.
34 Otiia e kore e tangohia e ahau te kingitanga katoa i tona ringa; engari ka whakarangatira ahau i a ia i nga ra katoa e ora ai ia, he whakaaro ki taku pononga, ki a Rawiri, i whiriwhiria nei e ahau, mona i pupuri i aku whakahau, i aku tikanga.
35 Engari ka tangohia e ahau te kingitanga i te ringa o tana tama, a ka hoatu ki a koe, ara tekau nga iwi.
36 Kotahi te iwi e hoatu e ahau ki tana tama, hei rama ma taku pononga, ma Rawiri ki toku aroaro i nga ra katoa ki Hiruharama, ki te pa i whiriwhiria e ahau hei waihotanga iho mo toku ingoa.
37 A ka tangohia koe e ahau, a hei kingi koe, ka rite ki nga mea katoa i hiahia ai tou ngakau, a hei kingi koe mo Iharaira.
38 Na, tenei ake, ki te rongo koe i nga mea katoa e whakahau ai ahau ki a koe, a ka haere i aku ara, ka mahi i te mea e tika ana ki taku titiro, ka pupuri i aku tikanga, i aku whakahau, ka pera me ta taku pononga, me ta Rawiri i mea ai, na hei hoa ahau mou, ka hanga hoki e ahau tou whare kia pumau, ka peratia me to Rawiri i hanga ra e ahau; a ka hoatu a Iharaira ki a koe.
39 A ka whakawhiua e ahau nga uri o Rawiri mo tenei mea nei; otiia ehara i te mea mo ake tonu atu.
40 Na ka whai a Horomona kia whakamatea a Ieropoama; otiia i whakatika a Ieropoama, a rere ana ki Ihipa, ki a Hihaka kingi o Ihipa, a i Ihipa ia a mate noa a Horomona.
41 Na, ko era atu mahi a Horomona, ko nga mea katoa i mea ai ia, me ona whakaaro nui, kahore ianei i tuhituhia ki te pukapuka o nga mahi a Horomona?
42 Na, ko te roa o te kingitanga o Horomona ki Hiruharama ki a Iharaira katoa, e wha tekau tau.
43 Na ka moe a Horomona ki ona matua, a tanumia ana ki te pa o Rawiri, o tona papa; a ko Rehopoama, ko tana tama, te kingi i muri i a ia.

Solomon’s Wives
11 King Solomon, however, loved many foreign women(A) besides Pharaoh’s daughter—Moabites, Ammonites,(B) Edomites, Sidonians and Hittites. 2 They were from nations about which the Lord had told the Israelites, “You must not intermarry(C) with them, because they will surely turn your hearts after their gods.” Nevertheless, Solomon held fast to them in love. 3 He had seven hundred wives of royal birth and three hundred concubines,(D) and his wives led him astray.(E) 4 As Solomon grew old, his wives turned his heart after other gods,(F) and his heart was not fully devoted(G) to the Lord his God, as the heart of David his father had been. 5 He followed Ashtoreth(H) the goddess of the Sidonians, and Molek(I) the detestable god of the Ammonites. 6 So Solomon did evil(J) in the eyes of the Lord; he did not follow the Lord completely, as David his father had done.
7 On a hill east(K) of Jerusalem, Solomon built a high place for Chemosh(L) the detestable god of Moab, and for Molek(M) the detestable god of the Ammonites. 8 He did the same for all his foreign wives, who burned incense and offered sacrifices to their gods.
9 The Lord became angry with Solomon because his heart had turned away from the Lord, the God of Israel, who had appeared(N) to him twice. 10 Although he had forbidden Solomon to follow other gods,(O) Solomon did not keep the Lord’s command.(P) 11 So the Lord said to Solomon, “Since this is your attitude and you have not kept my covenant and my decrees,(Q) which I commanded you, I will most certainly tear(R) the kingdom away from you and give it to one of your subordinates. 12 Nevertheless, for the sake of David(S) your father, I will not do it during your lifetime. I will tear it out of the hand of your son. 13 Yet I will not tear the whole kingdom from him, but will give him one tribe(T) for the sake(U) of David my servant and for the sake of Jerusalem, which I have chosen.”(V)
Solomon’s Adversaries
14 Then the Lord raised up against Solomon an adversary,(W) Hadad the Edomite, from the royal line of Edom. 15 Earlier when David was fighting with Edom, Joab the commander of the army, who had gone up to bury the dead, had struck down all the men in Edom.(X) 16 Joab and all the Israelites stayed there for six months, until they had destroyed all the men in Edom. 17 But Hadad, still only a boy, fled to Egypt with some Edomite officials who had served his father. 18 They set out from Midian and went to Paran.(Y) Then taking people from Paran with them, they went to Egypt, to Pharaoh king of Egypt, who gave Hadad a house and land and provided him with food.
19 Pharaoh was so pleased with Hadad that he gave him a sister of his own wife, Queen Tahpenes, in marriage. 20 The sister of Tahpenes bore him a son named Genubath, whom Tahpenes brought up in the royal palace. There Genubath lived with Pharaoh’s own children.
21 While he was in Egypt, Hadad heard that David rested with his ancestors and that Joab the commander of the army was also dead. Then Hadad said to Pharaoh, “Let me go, that I may return to my own country.”
22 “What have you lacked here that you want to go back to your own country?” Pharaoh asked.
“Nothing,” Hadad replied, “but do let me go!”
23 And God raised up against Solomon another adversary,(Z) Rezon son of Eliada, who had fled from his master, Hadadezer(AA) king of Zobah. 24 When David destroyed Zobah’s army, Rezon gathered a band of men around him and became their leader; they went to Damascus,(AB) where they settled and took control. 25 Rezon was Israel’s adversary as long as Solomon lived, adding to the trouble caused by Hadad. So Rezon ruled in Aram(AC) and was hostile toward Israel.
Jeroboam Rebels Against Solomon
26 Also, Jeroboam son of Nebat rebelled(AD) against the king. He was one of Solomon’s officials, an Ephraimite from Zeredah, and his mother was a widow named Zeruah.
27 Here is the account of how he rebelled against the king: Solomon had built the terraces[a](AE) and had filled in the gap in the wall of the city of David his father. 28 Now Jeroboam was a man of standing,(AF) and when Solomon saw how well(AG) the young man did his work, he put him in charge of the whole labor force of the tribes of Joseph.
29 About that time Jeroboam was going out of Jerusalem, and Ahijah(AH) the prophet of Shiloh met him on the way, wearing a new cloak. The two of them were alone out in the country, 30 and Ahijah took hold of the new cloak he was wearing and tore(AI) it into twelve pieces. 31 Then he said to Jeroboam, “Take ten pieces for yourself, for this is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: ‘See, I am going to tear(AJ) the kingdom out of Solomon’s hand and give you ten tribes. 32 But for the sake(AK) of my servant David and the city of Jerusalem, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, he will have one tribe. 33 I will do this because they have[b] forsaken me and worshiped(AL) Ashtoreth the goddess of the Sidonians, Chemosh the god of the Moabites, and Molek the god of the Ammonites, and have not walked(AM) in obedience to me, nor done what is right in my eyes, nor kept my decrees(AN) and laws as David, Solomon’s father, did.
34 “‘But I will not take the whole kingdom out of Solomon’s hand; I have made him ruler all the days of his life for the sake of David my servant, whom I chose and who obeyed my commands and decrees. 35 I will take the kingdom from his son’s hands and give you ten tribes. 36 I will give one tribe(AO) to his son so that David my servant may always have a lamp(AP) before me in Jerusalem, the city where I chose to put my Name. 37 However, as for you, I will take you, and you will rule(AQ) over all that your heart desires;(AR) you will be king over Israel. 38 If you do whatever I command you and walk in obedience to me and do what is right(AS) in my eyes by obeying my decrees(AT) and commands, as David my servant did, I will be with you. I will build you a dynasty(AU) as enduring as the one I built for David and will give Israel to you. 39 I will humble David’s descendants because of this, but not forever.’”
40 Solomon tried to kill Jeroboam, but Jeroboam fled(AV) to Egypt, to Shishak(AW) the king, and stayed there until Solomon’s death.
Solomon’s Death(AX)
41 As for the other events of Solomon’s reign—all he did and the wisdom he displayed—are they not written in the book of the annals of Solomon? 42 Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel forty years. 43 Then he rested with his ancestors and was buried in the city of David his father. And Rehoboam(AY) his son succeeded him as king.
