1所羅門王在法老的女兒之外，又寵愛許多外邦女子，就是摩押女子、亞捫女子、以東女子、西頓女子、赫人女子。King Solomon, however, loved many foreign women along with the daughter of Pharaoh—women of Moab, Ammon, Edom, and Sidon, as well as Hittite women.
2論到這些國的人，耶和華曾曉諭以色列人說：「你們不可與她們往來相通，因為她們必誘惑你們的心去隨從她們的神。」所羅門卻這些女子。These women were from the nations about which the LORD had told the Israelites, “You must not intermarry with them, for surely they will turn your hearts after their gods.” Yet Solomon clung to these women in love.
3所羅門有妃七百，都是公主；還有三百。這些妃嬪誘惑他的心。He had seven hundred wives of royal birth and three hundred concubines—and his wives turned his heart away.
4所羅門年老的時候，他的妃嬪誘惑他的心去隨從別神，不效法他父親大衛地順服耶和華─他的 神。For when Solomon grew old, his wives turned his heart after other gods, and he was not wholeheartedly devoted to the LORD his God, as his father David had been.
5因為所羅門隨從西頓人的女神和亞捫人。Solomon followed Ashtoreth the goddess of the Sidonians and Milcom the abomination of the Ammonites.
6所羅門行耶和華眼中看為惡的事，不效法他父親大衛專心順從耶和華。So Solomon did evil in the sight of the LORD; unlike his father David, he did not follow the LORD completely.
7所羅門為摩押可憎的神和亞捫人可憎的神，在耶路撒冷對面的山上建築邱壇。At that time on a hill east of Jerusalem, Solomon built a high place for Chemosh the abomination of Moab and for Molech the abomination of the Ammonites.
8他為那些向自己的神燒香獻祭的外邦女子，就是他娶來的妃嬪也是這樣行。He did the same for all his foreign wives, who burned incense and sacrificed to their gods.
9耶和華向所羅門發怒，因為他的心偏離向他兩次顯現的耶和華─以色列的 神。Now the LORD grew angry with Solomon, because his heart had turned away from the LORD, the God of Israel, who had appeared to him twice.
10耶和華曾吩咐他不可隨從別神，他卻沒有遵守耶和華所吩咐的。Although He had warned Solomon explicitly not to follow other gods, Solomon did not keep the LORD’s command.
11所以耶和華對他說：「你既行了這事，不遵守我所吩咐你守的約和律例，我必將你的國奪回，賜給你的臣子。Then the LORD said to Solomon, “Because you have done this and have not kept My covenant and My statutes, which I have commanded you, I will tear the kingdom away from you and give it to your servant.
12然而，因你父親大衛的緣故，我不在你活著的日子行這事，必從你兒子的手中將國奪回。Nevertheless, for the sake of your father David, I will not do it during your lifetime; I will tear it out of the hand of your son.
13只是我不將全國奪回，要因我僕人大衛和我所選擇的耶路撒冷，還留一支派給你的兒子。」Yet I will not tear the whole kingdom away from him. I will give one tribe to your son for the sake of My servant David and for the sake of Jerusalem, which I have chosen.”
14耶和華使以東人哈達興起，作所羅門的敵人；他是以東王的後裔。Then the LORD raised up against Solomon an adversary, Hadad the Edomite, from the royal line of Edom.
15先前大衛攻擊以東，元帥約押上去葬埋陣亡的人，將以東的男丁都殺了。Earlier, when David was in Edom, Joab the commander of the army had gone to bury the dead and had struck down every male in Edom.
16約押和以色列眾人在以東住了六個月，直到將以東的男丁盡都剪除。Joab and all Israel had stayed there six months, until he had killed every male in Edom.
17那時哈達還是幼童；他和他父親的臣僕，幾個以東人逃往埃及。But Hadad, still just a young boy, had fled to Egypt, along with some Edomites who were servants of his father.
18他們從米甸起行，到了巴蘭；從巴蘭帶著幾個人來到埃及見埃及王法老；法老為他派定糧食，又給他房屋田地。Hadad and his men set out from Midian and went to Paran. They took men from Paran with them and went to Egypt, to Pharaoh king of Egypt, who gave Hadad a house and land and provided him with food.
19哈達在法老面前大蒙恩惠，以致法老將王后答比匿的妹子賜他為妻。There Hadad found such great favor in the sight of Pharaoh that he gave to him in marriage the sister of Queen Tahpenes, his own wife.
20答比匿的妹子給哈達生了一個兒子，名叫基努拔。答比匿使基努拔在法老的宮裡斷奶，基努拔就與法老的眾子一同住在法老的宮裡。And the sister of Tahpenes bore Hadad a son named Genubath. Tahpenes herself weaned him in Pharaoh’s palace, and Genubath lived there among the sons of Pharaoh.
21哈達在埃及聽見大衛與他列祖同睡，元帥約押也死了，就對法老說：「求王容我回本國去。」When Hadad heard in Egypt that David had rested with his fathers and that Joab, the commander of the army, was dead, he said to Pharaoh, “Let me go, that I may return to my own country.”
22法老對他說：「你在我這裡有甚麼缺乏，你竟要回你本國去呢？」他回答說：「我沒有缺乏甚麼，只是求王容我回去。」But Pharaoh asked him, “What have you lacked here with me that you suddenly want to go back to your own country?” “Nothing,” Hadad replied, “but please let me go.”
23神又使以利亞大的兒子利遜興起，作所羅門的敵人。他先前逃避主人瑣巴王哈大底謝。And God raised up against Solomon another adversary, Rezon the son of Eliada, who had fled from his master, Hadadezer king of Zobah,
24大衛擊殺瑣巴人的時候，利遜招聚了一群人，自己作他們的頭目，往居住，在那裡作王。and had gathered men to himself. When David killed the Zobaites, Rezon captained a band of raiders and went to Damascus, where they settled and gained control.
25所羅門活著的時候，哈達為患之外，利遜也作以色列的敵人。他恨惡以色列人，且作了亞蘭人的王。Rezon was Israel’s enemy throughout the days of Solomon, adding to the trouble caused by Hadad. So Rezon ruled over Aram with hostility toward Israel.
26所羅門的臣僕、尼八的兒子耶羅波安也舉手攻擊王。他是以法蓮支派的洗利達人，他母親是寡婦，名叫洗魯阿。Now Jeroboam son of Nebat was an Ephraimite from Zeredah whose mother was a widow named Zeruah. Jeroboam was a servant of Solomon, but he rebelled against the king,
27他舉手攻擊王的緣故，乃由先前所羅門建造米羅，修補他父親大衛城的。and this is the account of his rebellion against the king. Solomon had built the supporting terraces and repaired the gap in the wall of the city of his father David.
28耶羅波安是大有才能的人。所羅門見這少年人，就派他監管約瑟家的一切工程。Now Jeroboam was a mighty man of valor. So when Solomon noticed that the young man was industrious, he put him in charge of the whole labor force of the house of Joseph.
29一日，耶羅波安出了耶路撒冷，示羅人先知在路上遇見他；亞希雅身上穿著一件新衣。他們二人在田野，以外並無別人。During that time, the prophet Ahijah the Shilonite met Jeroboam on the road as he was going out of Jerusalem. Now Ahijah had wrapped himself in a new cloak, and the two of them were alone in the open field.
30亞希雅將自己穿的那件新衣撕成十二片，And Ahijah took hold of the new cloak he was wearing, tore it into twelve pieces,
31對耶羅波安說：「你可以拿十片。耶和華─以色列的 神如此說：『我必將國從所羅門手裡奪回，將十個支派賜給你。and said to Jeroboam, “Take ten pieces for yourself, for this is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘Behold, I will tear the kingdom out of the hand of Solomon, and I will give you ten tribes.
32（我因僕人大衛和我在以色列眾支派中所選擇的耶路撒冷城的緣故，仍給所羅門留一個支派。）But one tribe will remain for the sake of My servant David and for the sake of Jerusalem, the city I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel.
33因為他離棄我，敬拜西頓人的女神亞斯她錄、摩押的神基抹，和亞捫人的神米勒公，沒有遵從我的道，行我眼中看為正的事，守我的律例典章，像他父親大衛一樣。For they have forsaken Me to worship Ashtoreth the goddess of the Sidonians, Chemosh the god of the Moabites, and Milcom the god of the Ammonites. They have not walked in My ways, nor done what is right in My eyes, nor kept My statutes and judgments, as Solomon’s father David did.
34但我不從他手裡將全國奪回；使他終身為君，是因我所揀選的僕人大衛謹守我的誡命律例。Nevertheless, I will not take the whole kingdom out of Solomon’s hand, because I have made him ruler all the days of his life for the sake of David My servant, whom I chose because he kept My commandments and statutes.
35我必從他兒子的手裡將國奪回，以十個支派賜給你，But I will take ten tribes of the kingdom from the hand of his son and give them to you.
36還留一個支派給他的兒子，使我僕人大衛在我所選擇立我名的耶路撒冷城裡，在我面前長有。I will give one tribe to his son, so that My servant David will always have a lamp before Me in Jerusalem, the city where I chose to put My Name.
37我必揀選你，使你照心裡一切所願的，作王治理以色列。But as for you, I will take you, and you shall reign over all that your heart desires, and you will be king over Israel.
38你若聽從我一切所吩咐你的，遵行我的道，行我眼中看為正的事，謹守我的律例誡命，像我僕人大衛所行的，我就與你同在，為你立堅固的家，像我為大衛所立的一樣，將以色列人賜給你。If you listen to all that I command you, walk in My ways, and do what is right in My sight in order to keep My statutes and commandments as My servant David did, then I will be with you. I will build you a lasting dynasty just as I built for David, and I will give Israel to you.
39我必因所羅門所行的使大衛後裔受患難，但不至於永遠。』」Because of this, I will humble David’s descendants—but not forever.’”
40所羅門因此想要殺耶羅波安。耶羅波安卻起身逃往埃及；到了埃及王那裡，就住在埃及，直到所羅門死了。Solomon therefore sought to kill Jeroboam. But Jeroboam arose and fled to Egypt, to Shishak king of Egypt, where he remained until the death of Solomon.
41所羅門其餘的事，凡他所行的和他的智慧都寫在所羅門記上。As for the rest of the acts of Solomon—all that he did, as well as his wisdom—are they not written in the Book of the Acts of Solomon?
42所羅門在耶路撒冷作以色列眾人的王共四十年。Thus the time that Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel was forty years.
43所羅門與他列祖同睡，葬在他父親大衛的城裡。他兒子羅波安接續他作王。And Solomon rested with his fathers and was buried in the city of his father David. And his son Rehoboam reigned in his place.
