¹But king Solomon loved many foreign women, besides the daughter of Pharaoh: women of the Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, Zidonians, Hittites;

¹Solomonin Pharo tanu lou leng nam dang numei tampi Moab te, Ammon te, Edom te, Zidon te, Hitte numeite a ita;

²of the nations of which Jehovah had said to the children of Israel, Ye shall not go in to them, neither shall they come in to you; they would certainly turn away your heart after their gods: to these Solomon was attached in love.

²Huai namte tungtang thu TOUPAN Israel suante kiangah, amau kithuahpih kei unla, amau leng honkithuahpih kei uhen: a pathiante uh lamah na lungtang uh lah a pi kawi ngei sin ua, chiin a nagen khin him a: huaite Solomonin itnain a len chinten hi.

³And he had seven hundred wives, princesses, and three hundred concubines; and his wives turned away his heart.

³Huchiin ji za sagih, kumpipa tanu a neia, mei za thum toh: huan, a jiten a lungtang a pi kawi sak uh.

⁴And it came to pass when Solomon was old, [that] his wives turned away his heart after other gods; and his heart was not perfect with Jehovah his God, as the heart of David his father.

⁴Huan, hichi a honghi a, Solomon a hong upat nungin, a jiten Pathian dangte lamah a lungtang api kawi sak uh: huchiin a pa David lungtang bang in TOUPA a Pathian lamah a lungtang a honghoih kim ta kei hi.

⁵And Solomon went after Ashtoreth the goddess of the Zidonians, and after Milcom the abomination of the Ammonites.

⁵Solomonin Zidonte pathiannu Astoreth leh Ammonte Pathian kihhuai mahmah Milkom a jui tei ta mawk hi.

⁶And Solomon did evil in the sight of Jehovah, and followed not fully Jehovah, as David his father.

⁶Huan, Solomonin Toupa mitmuhin thil gilou a hihtaa, a pa David bangin Toupa a jui tettet ta kei hi.

⁷Then did Solomon build a high place for Chemosh the abomination of the Moabites, on the hill that is before Jerusalem, and for Molech the abomination of the children of Ammon.

⁷Huchiin Solomonin Jerusalem china tangah Moabte Pathian kihhuai mahmah Memos ading leh, Ammon suante Pathian kihhuai mahmah Molek ading mun sang a nabawlta hi.

⁸And so he did for all his foreign wives, who burned incense and sacrificed to their gods.

⁸Huaibang mahin nam dang a jite tengteng a pathiante uh kianga kithoiha gimlim te halsekte adingin leng a bawl sak hi.

⁹And Jehovah was angry with Solomon, because his heart was turned away from Jehovah the God of Israel, who had appeared to him twice,

⁹Huchiin, Toupa Israelte Pathian, a kianga nihvei kilakkhinsa a lungtangin a lehngat san jiakin Toupa tuh Solomon tungah a heh a,

¹⁰and had commanded him concerning this thing, not to go after other gods; but he kept not what Jehovah had commanded.

¹⁰Hiai thu, Pathian dangte a jui dimng ahi kei chih thu na pepa: TOUPAN thu a piak lah a pom tuan sam kei.

¹¹And Jehovah said to Solomon, Forasmuch as this is done by thee, and thou hast not kept my covenant and my statutes which I commanded thee, I will certainly rend the kingdom from thee, and will give it to thy servant:

¹¹Huaijiakin TOUPAN Solomon kiangah, hichi bangin na omtaa, ka thukhun te leh ka thusehte pom dinga thu ka honpiak lah na pomta ngal keia, gam ka honsut ngeingei dinga, na sikha ka pe ding.

¹²notwithstanding in thy days I will not do it, for David thy father's sake; I will rend it out of the hand of thy son;

¹²Ahihhangin na pa David jiakin na dam sung telin jaw ka hih tadih kei dinga: himahleh na tapa khuta kipan gam pen ahihleh ka honsut sin hi.

¹³only, I will not rend away all the kingdom: I will give one tribe to thy son, for David my servant's sake, and for Jerusalem's sake which I have chosen.

¹³Gam tengteng bel ka hon sut vek kei dinga; himahleh ka sikha David jiak leh ka tel Jerusalem jiakin nam khat na tapa ka pe ding, a chi a.

¹⁴And Jehovah stirred up an adversary to Solomon, Hadad the Edomite; he was of the king's seed in Edom.

¹⁴Huan, Toupan Edom mi, Hadah Solomon melma dingin a honding khesaktaa: amah bel Edom gama kumpipa suan ahi.

¹⁵Now it came to pass when David was in Edom, when Joab the captain of the host had gone up to bury the slain, after he had smitten every male in Edom

¹⁵Huan, hichi ahi a, David Edom gama a om laia, a mi thahte uh vui dinga sepaih heutu Joab a hoh touha, Edom mi pasal ta peuhmah a vathah khit nungin,

¹⁶(for Joab abode there six months with all Israel, until he had cut off every male in Edom),

¹⁶(Joab leh Israel mi tengteng kha guk tak Edom gama pasal tengteng a hihlup khit masiah a om uh ahi; )

¹⁷that Hadad fled, he and certain Edomites of his father's servants with him, to go into Egypt, Hadad being yet a little child.

¹⁷Hadad bel a pa sikhate laka Edom mi khenkhatte toh Aigupta gama hoh dingin a tai ua; Hadad bel naupang nou ahi lai.

¹⁸And they arose out of Midian, and came to Paran, and took men with them out of Paran, and they came to Egypt, to Pharaoh king of Egypt; who gave him a house, and appointed him victuals, and gave him land.

¹⁸Midian gam akipan a pawt ua, Paran ah a hoh ua: huan, Paran akipanin mite a pi ua, Aigupta gam, Aigupta gam kumpipa Pharo kiang a tung suk ua; aman in a napia, nek ding te a na ngaihtuah saka, gamte leng a na pia a.

¹⁹And Hadad found great favour in the sight of Pharaoh, and he gave him as wife the sister of his own wife, the sister of Tahpenes the queen.

¹⁹Hadadin Pharo mit a tung manmaha, huchiin a ji mahmah sanggamnu, kumpinu Tahpenes sanggamnu ji dingin a nei sak hi.

²⁰And the sister of Tahpenes bore him Genubath his son; and Tahpenes brought him up in Pharaoh's house; and Genubath was in Pharaoh's household, among the sons of Pharaoh.

²⁰Huan, Tahpenes sanggamnuin tapa Gebubath a neihsaka, Tapenesin Pharo inah a nawi nek tawpna a bawl saka: huan, Genubath bel Pharo inah Pharo tate lak ah a omta.

²¹And Hadad heard in Egypt that David slept with his fathers, and that Joab the captain of the host was dead; and Hadad said to Pharaoh, Let me depart, that I may go to mine own country.

²¹Huan, Hadadin Aigupta gam akipana David a pute khawng kiang ah a ihmuta chih leh, sepaih heutu Joab leng a sitachih a na jak in, Hadadin Pharo kiangah, ka gam ua ka pai theihna dingin honpawt sak ve, a chi a.

²²And Pharaoh said to him, What then dost thou lack with me, that behold, thou desirest to go to thine own country? And he said, Nothing; but in any case let me depart.

²²Huchiin, Pharoin a kiangah, Ka kianga na omin taksap bang na nei a oi, ngaiin, huchia na gam lam ua pai nawn na tup mai mah? a chi a. Huan, aman, Bangmah a hihleh neilou e: himahleh honpai sak himhim in, a chi a.

²³God stirred him up yet an adversary, Rezon the son of Eliada, who had fled from Hadadezer king of Zobah, his lord.

²³Huan, Pathianin a melma dingin Eliad tapa Rrzon, a pu Hadadezer, Zob kumpipa kianga kipana tai mangsa a honding sak nawna:

²⁴And he collected men to him, and became captain of a band, when David slew them [of Zobah]; and they went to Damascus, and dwelt there, and reigned in Damascus.

²⁴Davidin Zob khuaa mite a thahlai in aman a kiangah mite a kaikhawma, sepaihheutu dingin a napanga: huan, Damaska khuaah a hoh ua, huaiah a om ua, Damaska khuaah kumpipain a tuta.

²⁵And he was an adversary to Israel all the days of Solomon, besides the mischief that Hadad [did]; and he abhorred Israel, and reigned over Syria.

²⁵Hadad hihgentheihna behlapin Solomon dam sung teng, Israelte melma ahi gige hima: Israelte a ho mahmaha, Suria gam tungah vai a hawm hi.

²⁶And Jeroboam the son of Nebat, an Ephrathite of Zeredah, Solomon's servant (whose mother's name was Zeruah, a widow woman), even he lifted up his hand against the king.

²⁶Huan, Nebat tapa Jeroboam, Zered khuaa Ephraim mi Solomon sikha mahin, (a nu min bel Zerui ahi a, meithai a hi), huai miin leng kumpipa tungah a khut a lik sama.

²⁷And this was the cause that he lifted up his hand against the king: Solomon was building Millo, and closing the breach of the city of David his father;

²⁷Kumpipa tunga a khut a honlikna san hichi bang ahi: Solomonin Milo a bawla, a pa David khua a siatna lailai a bawl hoih a.

²⁸and the man Jeroboam was strong and valiant; and Solomon saw the young man that he was industrious, and he made him ruler over all the charge of the house of Joseph.

²⁸Huai Jeroboam bel mi hat hangsan ahi: huchiin, Solomonin huai tangval bel mi thanuam tak hia a theih jiakin Joseph inkote nasep tengteng tungah heutu dingin a bawla.

²⁹And it came to pass at that time that Jeroboam went out of Jerusalem, and the prophet Ahijah the Shilonite found him in the way; and he had clad himself with a new garment; and they two were alone in the field.

²⁹Huan, Huai laiin hichi ahi a, Jeroboam Jerusalem khua akipana a pawt khiak laiin Silo mi jawlnei Ahijain lampi ah a namu a; Ahijain puan thak a silh a; amau gel kiain gamlakah a om khawm uh.

³⁰Then Ahijah seized the new garment that was on him, and rent it in twelve pieces;

³⁰Huan, Ahijain a puan thak silh a laa, nen sawm leh nen nihin a botkekta.

³¹and said to Jeroboam, Take thee ten pieces; for thus saith Jehovah the God of Israel: Behold, I will rend the kingdom out of the hand of Solomon, and will give ten tribes to thee;

³¹Jeroboam kiangah, Nen sawm lain: Toupa, Israelte Pathianin hichiin a chi a ahi: Ngaiin, gam Solomon ka sut dinga, nam sawm nang ka honpe ding:

³²but one tribe shall he have for my servant David's sake, and for Jerusalem's sake, the city which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel:

³²(Ahihhangin ka sikha David jiak leh, Israel nam tengteng laka ka tel khopi, Jerusalem jiakin nam khat jaw nei na ve: )

³³because they have forsaken me, and have worshipped Ashtoreth the goddess of the Zidonians, Chemosh the god of the Moabites, and Milcom the god of the children of Ammon, and have not walked in my ways, to do that which is right in my sight, and my statutes and mine ordinances, as David his father.

³³Amau honpai san ua, Zidonte pathiannu Astoreth te, Moabte Pathian Kesmos te, Ammonte suante pathian Milkom te a biak jiak un leh ka mitmuha thil hoih hih ding leh ka sehte leh ka vaihawmte pom dinga a pa David banga ka lampite a zuih louh jiak un.

³⁴But I will not take the whole kingdom out of his hand; for 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 statutes;

³⁴Gam pumpi jaw ka sut kei ding; ahihhangin ka thupiakte leh ka thusehte pompa, ka tel, ka sikha David jiakin a dam sungin kumpipain ka omsak lai ding:

³⁵but I will take the kingdom out of his son's hand, and will give it unto thee, -- the ten tribes.

³⁵Himahleh gam jaw a tapa ka sut dinga, nang ka honpe sin hi, nam sawmte.

³⁶And unto his son will I give one tribe, that David my servant may have a lamp always before me in Jerusalem, the city that I have chosen for myself to put my name there.

³⁶Huan, ka sikha Davidin ka min omsak nadinga ka tel khopi Jerusalem ah ka maa khawnvak a neih gige theihna dingin nam khat bel a tapa ka pe ding.

³⁷And I will take thee, that thou mayest reign over all that thy soul desireth, and thou shalt be king over Israel.

³⁷Nang ka hon sep dinga, na ut utin vai na haawm dinga, Israelte kumpipa in na om ding.

³⁸And it shall be, if thou wilt hearken unto all that I command thee, and wilt walk in my ways, and do that which is right in my sight, in keeping my statutes and my commandments, as David my servant did, that I will be with thee, and build thee a lasting house, as I built for David, and will give Israel unto thee.

³⁸Huan, hichi ahi dinga, thu ka honpiak peuhmah na poma ka lampite na zuiha, ka sikha David banga ka sehte leh ka thupiakte jui dinga ka mitmuha thil hoih na hih leh na kiangah ka om jel ding, David adia ka dinkip sak bangin inkuan kip ka hondinkhiak sak dinga, Israelte ka honpe ding hi.

³⁹And I will for this afflict the seed of David, but not for ever.

³⁹Huaijiakin David suan jaw ka hihgim sin hi, Ahihhangin khantawnin jaw ahi kei ding, a chi hi, chiin.

⁴⁰And Solomon sought to kill Jeroboam; and Jeroboam arose and fled into Egypt, to Shishak king of Egypt; and he was in Egypt until the death of Solomon.

⁴⁰Huchiin Solomonin Jeroboam thath atuma, himahleh Jeriboam a dinga, Aigupta gamah, Aigupta gam kumpipa Sisak kiangah a taia, Solomon sih matan Aigupta gamah a omta hi.

⁴¹And the rest of the acts of Solomon, and all that he did, and his wisdom, are they not written in the book of the acts of Solomon?

⁴¹Solomon tanchin dangte leh, a thilhih tengteng leh a pilna te Solomon thilhih gelhna bu ah atuang ka hia?

⁴²And the time that Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel was forty years.

⁴²Solomonin Israel tengteng tunga Jerusalem khuaa vai a hawma sung kum sawmli ahi.Huchiin Solomon a pute kiangah a ihmua, a pa David khopi ah a vui uh; huan, a tapa Rehoboam a sikin a honglal ta hi.

⁴³And Solomon slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David his father; and Rehoboam his son reigned in his stead.

⁴³Huchiin Solomon a pute kiangah a ihmua, a pa David khopi ah a vui uh; huan, a tapa Rehoboam a sikin a honglal ta hi.
