1 Kings:Chapter 11

列王紀(上)	1 Kings
¹撒羅滿除了法郎的公主外，又愛上了許多外國女子：即摩阿布女子，阿孟女子，厄東女子，漆冬女子，赫特女子。	¹And king Solomon loved many strange women besides the daughter of Pharao, and women of Moab, and of Ammon, and of Edom, and of Sidon, and of the Hethites:
²關於這些民族，上主曾吩咐以色列子民說：「你們不可到他們中間去，他們也不可到你們中間來，否則他們必會引誘你們的心，傾向他們的神。」但是，撒羅滿卻戀愛這些女子。	²Of the nations concerning which the Lord said to the children of Israel: You shall not go in unto them, neither shall any of them come in to yours: for they will most certainly turn away your heart to follow their gods. And to these was Solomon joined with a most ardent love.
³他有七百個各地公主為妻妾，另外還有三百妃子；這些妻妾終於敗壞了他的心。	³And he had seven hundred wives as queens, and three hundred concubines: and the women turned away his heart.
⁴當撒羅滿年老的時候，這些妻妾迷惑了他的心，勾引他去崇拜別的神；他的心已不像他父親達味的心，全屬於上主他的天主。	⁴And when he was now old, his heart was turned away by women to follow strange gods: and his heart was not perfect with the Lord his God, as was the heart of David his father.
⁵這樣，他隨從了漆冬人的女神阿巿托勒特，和阿孟人的可憎之物米耳公。	⁵But Solomon worshipped Astarthe the goddess of the Sidonians, and Moloch the idol of the ammonites.
⁶撒羅滿作了上主眼中視為惡的事，不像他父親達味那樣全心服從上主。	⁶And Solomon did that which was net pleasing before the Lord, and did not fully follow the Lord, as David his father.
⁷那時，撒羅滿在耶路撒冷東面的山上，為摩阿布人的可憎之物革摩士，為阿孟子民的可憎之物摩肋客，修築了丘壇。	⁷Then Solomon built a temple for Chamos the idol of Moab, on the hill that is over against Jerusalem, and for Moloch the idol of the children of Ammon.
⁸他為所有的外國妻妾，都修築了丘壇，各給自己的神焚香獻祭。	⁸And he did in this manner for all his wives that were strangers, who burnt incense, and offered sacrifice to their gods.
⁹上主遂向撒羅滿發怒，因為他的心偏離了兩次顯現給他的上主以色列的天主。	⁹And the Lord was angry with Solomon, because his mind was turned away from the Lord the God of Israel, who had appeared to him twice,
¹⁰當時，上主對此事曾吩咐過他，不可去隨從別的神，但他卻沒有遵守上主的命令。	¹⁰And had commanded him concerning this thing, that he should not follow strange gods: but he kept not the things which the Lord commanded him.
¹¹於是，上主對撒羅滿說：「你既然這樣行事，不遵守我的盟約，和我吩咐你的誡命，我必要奪去你的王國，賜給你的一個臣僕。	¹¹The Lord therefore said to Solomon: Because thou hast done this, and hast not kept my covenant, and my precepts, which I have commanded thee, I will divide and rend thy kingdom, and will give it to thy servant.
¹²雖然如此，但為了你父親達味的緣故，在你有生之日，我不作這事；我將要由你兒子手中奪去。	¹²Nevertheless in thy days I will not do it, for David thy father's sake: but I will rend it out of the hand of thy son.
¹³但是仍不完全奪去，為了我僕人達味和我所揀選的耶路撒冷，我仍給你的兒子留下一支派」。	¹³Neither will I take away the whole kingdom, but I will give one tribe to thy son for the sake of David my servant, and Jerusalem which I have chosen.
¹⁴那時，上主興起一個反抗撒羅滿的人，就是厄東王的後裔，厄東人哈達得。	¹⁴And the Lord raised up an adversary to Solomon, Adad the Edomite of the king's seed, in Edom.
¹⁵當達味打敗厄東後，軍長約阿布前去埋葬陣亡的人時，殺死了厄東所有的男子；	¹⁵For when David was in Edom, and Joab the general of the army was gone up to bury them that were slain, and had killed every male in Edom,
¹⁶約阿布和全以色列在厄東逗留了六個月，直到將厄東所有的男子完全殺掉。	¹⁶(For Joab remained there six months with all Israel, till he had slain every male in Edom,)
¹⁷哈達得卻同他父親的幾個臣僕厄東人逃往埃及，那時哈達得還很年輕。	¹⁷Then Adad fled, he and certain Edomites, of his father's servants with him, to go into Egypt: and Adad was then a little boy.
¹⁸他們從米德楊起身，到了帕蘭，從帕蘭又帶了些人來到埃及，投奔埃及王法郎；法郎給了他一座房屋，供給他食用，又給了他一塊土地。	¹⁸And they arose out of Madian, and came into Pharan, and they took men with them from Pharan, and went into Egypt to Pharao the king of Egypt: who gave him a house, and appointed him victuals, and assigned him land.
¹⁹哈達得在法郎眼前很是得寵，因此將自己的妻子塔培乃斯王后的妹妹，嫁給他為妻。	¹⁹And Adad found great favour before Pharao, insomuch that he gave him to wife, the own sister of his wife Taphnes the queen.
²⁰塔培乃斯的妹妹給哈達得生了一個兒子叫革奴巴特。塔培乃斯在法郎宮中撫養他，因此革奴巴特便住在法郎宮中，同法郎的公子們在一起。	²⁰And the sister of Taphnes bore him his son Genubath, and Taphnes brought him up in the house of Pharao: and Genubath dwelt with Pharao among his children.
²¹哈達得在埃及聽說達味已與他的列祖同眠，軍長約阿布也已去世，便對法郎說：「請讓我走，回到我故鄉去！」	²¹And when Adad heard in Egypt that David slept with his fathers, and that Joab the general of the army was dead, he said to Pharao: Let me depart, that I may go to my own country.
²²法郎對他說：「你在我這裏缺少什麼，竟想回到你的故鄉去？」他回答說：「什麼也不缺，只求你讓我回去！」	²²And Pharao said to him: Why, what is wanting to thee with me, that thou seekest to go to thy own country? But he answered: Nothing: yet I beseech thee to let me go.
²³天主又興起一個反抗撒羅滿的人，就是厄肋雅達的兒子勒宗。他由自己的主人祚巴王哈達德則爾前出走。	²³God also raised up against him an adversary, Razon the son of Eliada, who had fled from his master Adarezer the king of Soba:
²⁴在達味擊殺阿蘭人時，聚集了一些人，作了土匪頭目，去了大馬士革，盤踞在那裏，做了大馬士革王。	²⁴And he gathered men against him, and he became a captain of robbers, when David slew them of Soba: and they went to Damascus, and dwelt there, and they made him king in Damascus.
²⁵撒羅滿有生之日，勒宗始終與以色列為敵。哈達得就回了國。哈達得的危害，即在於他作了厄東的君王，不斷騷擾以色列。	²⁵And he was an adversary to Israel, all the days of Solomon: and this is the evil of Adad, and his hatred against Israel, and he reigned in Syria.
²⁶厄弗辣大地責勒達人，乃巴特的兒子雅洛貝罕，──他的母親名叫責魯阿，是個寡婦──原是撒羅滿的臣僕，他也起來反抗君王。	²⁶Jeroboam also the son of Nabat an Ephrathite of Sareda, a servant of Solomon, whose mother was named Sarua, a widow woman, lifted up his hand against the king.
²⁷他反抗君王的原委是這樣：當時撒羅滿正在建築米羅，修葺他父親達味城的裂口；	²⁷And this is the cause of his rebellion against him, for Solomon built Mello, and filled up the breach of the city of David his father.
²⁸雅洛貝罕這個人原很有才能，撒羅滿見這少年人很能做事，便派他監督若瑟族的一切勞役。	²⁸And Jeroboam was a valiant and mighty man: and Solomon seeing him a young man ingenious and industrious, made him chief over the tributes of all the house of Joseph.
²⁹有一次，雅洛貝罕走出耶路撒冷，史羅的先知阿希雅在路上遇見了他；先知身上穿着一件新外衣，在田間只有他們二人。	²⁹So it came to paste at that time, that Jeroboam went out of Jerusalem, and the prophet Ahias the Silonite, clad with a new garment, found him in the way: and they two were alone in the held.
³⁰阿希雅便拿起他所穿的新外衣，撕成了十二塊，	³⁰And Ahias taking his new garment, wherewith he was clad, divided it into twelve parts:
³¹然後對雅洛貝罕說：「你拿十塊，因為上主以色列的天主這樣說：看，我必將撒羅滿手中的王國撕裂，將十個支派交給你。	³¹And he said to Jeroboam: Take to thee ten pieces: for thus saith the Lord the God of Israel: Behold I will rend the kingdom out of the hand of Solomon, and will give thee ten tribes.
³²為了我僕人達味，和我從以色列支派中選的耶路撒冷城的緣故，仍給他留下一支派，	³²But one tribe shall remain to him for the sake of my servant David, and Jerusalem the city, which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel:
³³因為他背棄了我，崇拜了漆冬人的女神阿市托勒特、摩阿布人的神革摩士和阿孟人的神米耳公。他沒有像他父親達味那樣履行我的道路，行我視為正義的事，恪守我的律例和誡命。	³³Because he hath forsaken me, and hath adored Astarthe the goddess of the Sidonians, and Chamos the god of Moab, and Moloch the god of the children of Ammon: and hath not walked in my ways, to do justice before me, and to keep my precepts, and judgments as did David his father.
³⁴但我不願從他手中奪去整個王國，我要使他有生之日作首領，是為了我所選的僕人達味的緣故，因為他遵守了我的誡命和律例。	³⁴Yet I will not take away all the kingdom out of his hand, but I will make him prince all the days of his life, for David my servant's sake, whom I chose, who kept my commandments and my precepts.
³⁵我卻要從他兒子的手中奪回王國，給你十個支派，	³⁵But I will take away the kingdom out of his son's hand and will give thee ten tribes:
³⁶只留下一個支派給他的兒子，使我的僕人達味，在我所揀選立我名的耶路撒冷城中，在我面前常有一盞明燈。	³⁶And to his son I will give one tribe, that there may remain a lamp for my servant David before me always in Jerusalem the city which I have chosen, that my name might be there.
³⁷我選取你，使你隨意統治一切，作以色列的君王。	³⁷And I will take thee, and thou shalt reign over all that thy soul desireth, and thou shalt be king over Israel.
³⁸如果你聽從我吩咐你的一切，履行我的道路，行我視為正義的事，恪守我的律例和誡命，如同我的僕人達味一樣，我必與你同在，為你建立一鞏固的家室，像我為達味所建立的一樣。我將以色列交給你，	³⁸If then thou wilt hearken to all that I shall command thee, and wilt walk in my ways, and do what is right before me, keeping my commandments and my precepts, as David my servant did: I will be with thee, and will build thee up a faithful house, as I built a house for David, and I will deliver Israel to thee:
³⁹藉以貶抑達味的後裔，但不致於久遠。」	³⁹And I will for this afflict the seed of David, but yet not for ever.
⁴⁰因此，撒羅滿想殺害雅洛貝罕，雅洛貝罕遂起身逃往埃及，投奔埃及王史沙克；他住在埃及，直到撒羅滿逝世。	⁴⁰Solomon therefore sought to kill Jeroboam: but he arose, and fled into Egypt to Sesac the king of Egypt, and was in Egypt till the death of Solomon.
⁴¹撒羅滿其餘的事蹟，他的一切作為和智慧，都記載在《撒羅滿實錄》上。	⁴¹And the rest of the words of Solomon, and all that he did, and his wisdom: behold they are all written in the book of the words of the days of Solomon.
⁴²撒羅滿在耶路撒冷作王，統治全以色列，凡四十年。	⁴²And the days that Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel, were forty years.
⁴³撒羅滿與他的列祖同眠，葬在他父親達味城內；他的兒子勒哈貝罕繼位為王。	⁴³And Solomon slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David his father, and Roboam his son reigned in his stead.
