1 King Solomon, however, loved many foreign women besides Pharaoh’s daughter—Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, Sidoniansand Hittites. 2 They were from nations about which the Lordhad told the Israelites, "You must not intermarry with them, because they will surely turn your hearts after their gods." Nevertheless, Solomonheld fast to them in love. 3 He had seven hundred wives of royal birth and three hundred concubines, and his wives led him astray. 4 As Solomongrew old, his wives turned his heart after other gods, and his heart was not fully devoted to the Lordhis God, as the heart of Davidhis father had been. 5 He followed Ashtoreth the goddess of the Sidonians, and Molek the detestable god of the Ammonites. 6 So Solomondid evil in the eyes of the Lord; he did not follow the Lordcompletely, as Davidhis father had done.
7 On a hill east of Jerusalem, Solomonbuilt a high place for Chemosh the detestable god of Moab, and for Molek 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 Lordbecame angry with Solomonbecause his heart had turned away from the Lord, the God of Israel, who had appeared to him twice. 10 Although he had forbidden Solomon to follow other gods, Solomon did not keep the Lord’s command. 11 So the Lordsaid to Solomon, "Since this is your attitude and you have not kept my covenant and my decrees, which I commanded you, I will most certainly tear the kingdom away from you and give it to one of your subordinates. 12 Nevertheless, for the sake of Davidyour 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 for the sake of Davidmy servant and for the sake of Jerusalem, which I have chosen."
Solomon’s Adversaries
14 Then the Lordraised up against Solomonan adversary, Hadadthe Edomite, from the royal line of Edom. 15 Earlier when Davidwas fighting with Edom, Joabthe commander of the army, who had gone up to bury the dead, had struck down all the men in Edom. 16 Joaband 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 Egyptwith some Edomite officials who had served his father. 18 They set out from Midianand went to Paran. Then taking people from Paranwith them, they went to Egypt, to Pharaohking of Egypt, who gave Hadad a house and land and provided him with food.
19 Pharaohwas so pleased with Hadadthat he gave him a sister of his own wife, Queen Tahpenes, in marriage. 20 The sister of Tahpenesbore him a son named Genubath, whom Tahpenesbrought up in the royal palace. There Genubathlived with Pharaoh’s own children.
21 While he was in Egypt, Hadadheard that Davidrested with his ancestors and that Joabthe commander of the army was also dead. Then Hadadsaid 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?" Pharaohasked.
"Nothing," Hadad replied, "but do let me go!"
23 And God raised up against Solomon another adversary, Rezonson of Eliada, who had fled from his master, Hadadezerking of Zobah. 24 When Daviddestroyed Zobah’s army, Rezon gathered a band of men around him and became their leader; they went to Damascus, where they settled and took control. 25 Rezon was Israel’s adversary as long as Solomonlived, adding to the trouble caused by Hadad. So Rezon ruled in Aramand was hostile toward Israel.
Jeroboam Rebels Against Solomon
26 Also, Jeroboamson of Nebatrebelled 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: Solomonhad built the terraces11:27 Or the Milloand had filled in the gap in the wall of the city of Davidhis father. 28 Now Jeroboamwas a man of standing, and when Solomonsaw how well 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 Jeroboamwas going out of Jerusalem, and Ahijahthe prophet of Shilohmet him on the way, wearing a new cloak. The two of them were alone out in the country, 30 and Ahijahtook hold of the new cloak he was wearing and tore 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 the kingdom out of Solomon’s hand and give you ten tribes. 32 But for the sake of my servant Davidand 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 have11:33 Hebrew; Septuagint, Vulgate and Syriac because he hasforsaken me and worshiped Ashtoreth the goddess of the Sidonians, Chemosh the god of the Moabites, and Molek the god of the Ammonites, and have not walked in obedience to me, nor done what is right in my eyes, nor kept my decrees 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 Davidmy 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 to his son so that Davidmy servant may always have a lamp 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 over all that your heart desires; 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 in my eyes by obeying my decrees and commands, as Davidmy servant did, I will be with you. I will build you a dynasty as enduring as the one I built for Davidand will give Israel to you. 39 I will humble David’s descendants because of this, but not forever.’ "
40 Solomontried to kill Jeroboam, but Jeroboamfled to Egypt, to Shishakthe king, and stayed there until Solomon’s death.
Solomon’s Death
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 Solomonreigned in Jerusalemover all Israel forty years. 43 Then he rested with his ancestors and was buried in the city of Davidhis father. And Rehoboamhis son succeeded him as king.
