1 Kings 11:31-43

11:31

And he said
<0559> (8799)

to Jeroboam
<03379>_,

Take
<03947> (8798)

thee ten
<06235>

pieces
<07168>_:

for thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_,

the God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_,

Behold, I will rend
<07167> (8802)

the kingdom
<04467>

out of the hand
<03027>

of Solomon
<08010>_,

and will give
<05414> (8804)

ten
<06235>

tribes
<07626>

to thee:

11:32

(But he shall have one
<0259>

tribe
<07626>

for my servant
<05650>

David's
<01732>

sake, and for Jerusalem's
<03389>

sake, the city
<05892>

which I have chosen
<0977> (8804)

out of all the tribes
<07626>

of Israel
<03478>:)

11:33

Because that they have forsaken
<05800> (8804)

me, and have worshipped
<07812> (8691)

Ashtoreth
<06253>

the goddess
<0430>

of the Zidonians
<06722>_,

Chemosh
<03645>

the god
<0430>

of the Moabites
<04124>_,

and Milcom
<04445>

the god
<0430>

of the children
<01121>

of Ammon
<05983>_,

and have not walked
<01980> (8804)

in my ways
<01870>_,

to do
<06213> (8800)

[that which is] right
<03477>

in mine eyes
<05869>_,

and [to keep] my statutes
<02708>

and my judgments
<04941>_,

as [did] David
<01732>

his father
<01>_.

11:34

Howbeit I will not take
<03947> (8799)

the whole kingdom
<04467>

out of his hand
<03027>_:

but I will make
<07896> (8799)

him prince
<05387>

all the days
<03117>

of his life
<02416>

for David
<01732>

my servant's
<05650>

sake, whom I chose
<0977> (8804)_,

because he kept
<08104> (8804)

my commandments
<04687>

and my statutes
<02708>_:

11:35

But I will take
<03947> (8804)

the kingdom
<04410>

out of his son's
<01121>

hand
<03027>_,

and will give
<05414> (8804)

it unto thee, [even] ten
<06235>

tribes
<07626>_.

11:36

And unto his son
<01121>

will I give
<05414> (8799)

one
<0259>

tribe
<07626>_,

that David
<01732>

my servant
<05650>

may have a light
<05216>

alway
<03117>

before
<06440>

me in Jerusalem
<03389>_,

the city
<05892>

which I have chosen
<0977> (8804)

me to put
<07760> (8800)

my name
<08034>

there. {light: Heb. lamp, or, candle}

11:37

And I will take
<03947> (8799)

thee, and thou shalt reign
<04427> (8804)

according to all that thy soul
<05315>

desireth
<0183> (8762)_,

and shalt be king
<04428>

over Israel
<03478>_.

11:38

And it shall be, if thou wilt hearken
<08085> (8799)

unto all that I command
<06680> (8762)

thee, and wilt walk
<01980> (8804)

in my ways
<01870>_,

and do
<06213> (8804)

[that is] right
<03477>

in my sight
<05869>_,

to keep
<08104> (8800)

my statutes
<02708>

and my commandments
<04687>_,

as David
<01732>

my servant
<05650>

did
<06213> (8804)_;

that I will be with thee, and build
<01129> (8804)

thee a sure
<0539> (8737)

house
<01004>_,

as I built
<01129> (8804)

for David
<01732>_,

and will give
<05414> (8804)

Israel
<03478>

unto thee.

11:39

And I will for this afflict
<06031> (8762)

the seed
<02233>

of David
<01732>_,

but not for ever
<03117>_.

11:40

Solomon
<08010>

sought
<01245> (8762)

therefore to kill
<04191> (8687)

Jeroboam
<03379>_.

And Jeroboam
<03379>

arose
<06965> (8799)_,

and fled
<01272> (8799)

into Egypt
<04714>_,

unto Shishak
<07895>

king
<04428>

of Egypt
<04714>_,

and was in Egypt
<04714>

until the death
<04194>

of Solomon
<08010>_.

11:41

And the rest
<03499>

of the acts
<01697>

of Solomon
<08010>_,

and all that he did
<06213> (8804)_,

and his wisdom
<02451>_,

[are] they not written
<03789> (8803)

in the book
<05612>

of the acts
<01697>

of Solomon
<08010>_?

{acts: or, words, or, things}

11:42

And the time
<03117>

that Solomon
<08010>

reigned
<04427> (8804)

in Jerusalem
<03389>

over all Israel
<03478>

[was] forty
<0705>

years
<08141>_.

{time: Heb. days}

11:43

And Solomon
<08010>

slept
<07901> (8799)

with his fathers
<01>_,

and was buried
<06912> (8735)

in the city
<05892>

of David
<01732>

his father
<01>_:

and Rehoboam
<07346>

his son
<01121>

reigned
<04427> (8799)

in his stead. {Rehoboam: Gr. Roboam}
