1 Kings 18:1

18:1

And it came to pass [after] many
<07227>

days
<03117>_,

that the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>

came to Elijah
<0452>

in the third
<07992>

year
<08141>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Go
<03212> (8798)_,

shew
<07200> (8734)

thyself unto Ahab
<0256>_;

and I will send
<05414> (8799)

rain
<04306>

upon
<06440>

the earth
<0127>_.

1 Kings 10:1-29

10:1

And when the queen
<04436>

of Sheba
<07614>

heard
<08085> (8802)

of the fame
<08088>

of Solomon
<08010>

concerning the name
<08034>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

she came
<0935> (8799)

to prove
<05254> (8763)

him with hard questions
<02420>_.

10:2

And she came
<0935> (8799)

to Jerusalem
<03389>

with a very
<03966>

great
<03515>

train
<02428>_,

with camels
<01581>

that bare
<05375> (8802)

spices
<01314>_,

and very
<03966>

much
<07227>

gold
<02091>_,

and precious
<03368>

stones
<068>_:

and when she was come
<0935> (8799)

to Solomon
<08010>_,

she communed
<01696> (8762)

with him of all that was in her heart
<03824>_.

10:3

And Solomon
<08010>

told
<05046> (8686)

her all her questions
<01697>_:

there was not [any] thing
<01697>

hid
<05956> (8737)

from the king
<04428>_,

which he told
<05046> (8689)

her not. {questions: Heb. words}

10:4

And when the queen
<04436>

of Sheba
<07614>

had seen
<07200> (8799)

all Solomon's
<08010>

wisdom
<02451>_,

and the house
<01004>

that he had built
<01129> (8804)_,

10:5

And the meat
<03978>

of his table
<07979>_,

and the sitting
<04186>

of his servants
<05650>_,

and the attendance
<04612>

of his ministers
<08334> (8764)_,

and their apparel
<04403>_,

and his cupbearers
<08248> (8688)_,

and his ascent
<05930>

by which he went up
<05927> (8799)

unto the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_;

there was no more spirit
<07307>

in her. {attendance: Heb. standing} {cupbearers: or, butlers}

10:6

And she said
<0559> (8799)

to the king
<04428>_,

It was a true
<0571>

report
<01697>

that I heard
<08085> (8804)

in mine own land
<0776>

of thy acts
<01697>

and of thy wisdom
<02451>_.

{report: Heb. word} {acts: or, sayings}

10:7

Howbeit I believed
<0539> (8689)

not the words
<01697>_,

until I came
<0935> (8804)_,

and mine eyes
<05869>

had seen
<07200> (8799)

[it]: and, behold, the half
<02677>

was not told
<05046> (8717)

me: thy wisdom
<02451>

and prosperity
<02896>

exceedeth
<03254> (8689)

the fame
<08052>

which I heard
<08085> (8804)_.

{thy...: Heb. thou hast added wisdom and goodness to}

10:8

Happy
<0835>

[are] thy men
<0582>_,

happy
<0835>

[are] these thy servants
<05650>_,

which stand
<05975> (8802)

continually
<08548>

before
<06440>

thee, [and] that hear
<08085> (8802)

thy wisdom
<02451>_.

10:9

Blessed
<01288> (8803)

be the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>_,

which delighted
<02654> (8804)

in thee, to set
<05414> (8800)

thee on the throne
<03678>

of Israel
<03478>_:

because the LORD
<03068>

loved
<0160>

Israel
<03478>

for ever
<05769>_,

therefore made
<07760> (8799)

he thee king
<04428>_,

to do
<06213> (8800)

judgment
<04941>

and justice
<06666>_.

10:10

And she gave
<05414> (8799)

the king
<04428>

an hundred
<03967>

and twenty
<06242>

talents
<03603>

of gold
<02091>_,

and of spices
<01314>

very
<03966>

great store
<07235> (8687)_,

and precious
<03368>

stones
<068>_:

there came
<0935> (8804)

no more such
<01931>

abundance
<07230>

of spices
<01314>

as these which the queen
<04436>

of Sheba
<07614>

gave
<05414> (8804)

to king
<04428>

Solomon
<08010>_.

10:11

And the navy
<0590>

also of Hiram
<02438>_,

that brought
<05375> (8804)

gold
<02091>

from Ophir
<0211>_,

brought in
<0935> (8689)

from Ophir
<0211>

great
<03966>

plenty
<07235> (8687)

of almug
<0484>

trees
<06086>_,

and precious
<03368>

stones
<068>_.

{almug...: also called, algum trees}

10:12

And the king
<04428>

made
<06213> (8799)

of the almug
<0484>

trees
<06086>

pillars
<04552>

for the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

and for the king's
<04428>

house
<01004>_,

harps
<03658>

also and psalteries
<05035>

for singers
<07891> (8802)_:

there came
<0935> (8804)

no such almug
<0484>

trees
<06086>_,

nor were seen
<07200> (8738)

unto this day
<03117>_.

{pillars: or, rails: Heb. a prop}

10:13

And king
<04428>

Solomon
<08010>

gave
<05414> (8804)

unto the queen
<04436>

of Sheba
<07614>

all her desire
<02656>_,

whatsoever she asked
<07592> (8804)_,

beside [that] which Solomon
<08010>

gave
<05414> (8804)

her of his royal
<04428>

bounty
<03027>_.

So she turned
<06437> (8799)

and went
<03212> (8799)

to her own country
<0776>_,

she and her servants
<05650>_.

{of his...: Heb. according to the hand of king Solomon}

10:14

Now the weight
<04948>

of gold
<02091>

that came
<0935> (8804)

to Solomon
<08010>

in one
<0259>

year
<08141>

was six
<08337>

hundred
<03967>

threescore
<08346>

and six
<08337>

talents
<03603>

of gold
<02091>_,

10:15

Beside [that he had] of the merchantmen
<0582> <08446> (8802)_,

and of the traffick
<04536>

of the spice merchants
<07402> (8802)_,

and of all the kings
<04428>

of Arabia
<06153>_,

and of the governors
<06346>

of the country
<0776>_.

{governors: or, captains}

10:16

And king
<04428>

Solomon
<08010>

made
<06213> (8799)

two hundred
<03967>

targets
<06793>

[of] beaten
<07820> (8803)

gold
<02091>_:

six
<08337>

hundred
<03967>

[shekels] of gold
<02091>

went
<05927> (8686)

to one
<0259>

target
<06793>_.

10:17

And [he made] three
<07969>

hundred
<03967>

shields
<04043>

[of] beaten
<07820> (8803)

gold
<02091>_;

three
<07969>

pound
<04488>

of gold
<02091>

went
<05927> (8686)

to one
<0259>

shield
<04043>_:

and the king
<04428>

put
<05414> (8799)

them in the house
<01004>

of the forest
<03293>

of Lebanon
<03844>_.

10:18

Moreover the king
<04428>

made
<06213> (8799)

a great
<01419>

throne
<03678>

of ivory
<08127>_,

and overlaid
<06823> (8762)

it with the best
<06338> (8716)

gold
<02091>_.

10:19

The throne
<03678>

had six
<08337>

steps
<04609>_,

and the top
<07218>

of the throne
<03678>

[was] round
<05696>

behind
<0310>_:

and [there were] stays
<03027>

on either side on the place
<04725>

of the seat
<07675> (8800)_,

and two
<08147>

lions
<0738>

stood
<05975> (8802)

beside
<0681>

the stays
<03027>_.

{behind: Heb. on the hinder part thereof} {stays: Heb. hands}

10:20

And twelve
<08147> <06240>

lions
<0738>

stood
<05975> (8802)

there on the one side and on the other upon the six
<08337>

steps
<04609>_:

there was not the like
<03651>

made
<06213> (8738)

in any kingdom
<04467>_.

{the like: Heb. so}

10:21

And all king
<04428>

Solomon's
<08010>

drinking
<04945>

vessels
<03627>

[were of] gold
<02091>_,

and all the vessels
<03627>

of the house
<01004>

of the forest
<03293>

of Lebanon
<03844>

[were of] pure
<05462> (8803)

gold
<02091>_;

none [were of] silver
<03701>_:

it was nothing
<03972>

accounted
<02803> (8737)

of in the days
<03117>

of Solomon
<08010>_.

{none...: or, there was no silver in them}

10:22

For the king
<04428>

had at sea
<03220>

a navy
<0590>

of Tharshish
<08659>

with the navy
<0590>

of Hiram
<02438>_:

once
<0259>

in three
<07969>

years
<08141>

came
<0935> (8799)

the navy
<0590>

of Tharshish
<08659>_,

bringing
<05375> (8802)

gold
<02091>_,

and silver
<03701>_,

ivory
<08143>_,

and apes
<06971>_,

and peacocks
<08500>_.

{ivory: or, elephants' teeth}

10:23

So king
<04428>

Solomon
<08010>

exceeded
<01431> (8799)

all the kings
<04428>

of the earth
<0776>

for riches
<06239>

and for wisdom
<02451>_.

10:24

And all the earth
<0776>

sought
<01245> (8764)

to
<06440>

Solomon
<08010>_,

to hear
<08085> (8800)

his wisdom
<02451>_,

which God
<0430>

had put
<05414> (8804)

in his heart
<03820>_.

{sought to: Heb. sought the face of}

10:25

And they brought
<0935> (8688)

every man
<0376>

his present
<04503>_,

vessels
<03627>

of silver
<03701>_,

and vessels
<03627>

of gold
<02091>_,

and garments
<08008>_,

and armour
<05402>_,

and spices
<01314>_,

horses
<05483>_,

and mules
<06505>_,

a rate
<01697>

year
<08141>

by year
<08141>_.

10:26

And Solomon
<08010>

gathered together
<0622> (8799)

chariots
<07393>

and horsemen
<06571>_:

and he had a thousand
<0505>

and four
<0702>

hundred
<03967>

chariots
<07393>_,

and twelve
<08147> <06240>

thousand
<0505>

horsemen
<06571>_,

whom he bestowed
<05148> (8686)

in the cities
<05892>

for chariots
<07393>_,

and with the king
<04428>

at Jerusalem
<03389>_.

10:27

And the king
<04428>

made
<05414> (8799)

silver
<03701>

[to be] in Jerusalem
<03389>

as stones
<068>_,

and cedars
<0730>

made
<05414> (8804)

he [to be] as the sycomore trees
<08256>

that [are] in the vale
<08219>_,

for abundance
<07230>_.

{made: Heb. gave}

10:28

And Solomon
<08010>

had horses
<05483>

brought
<04161>

out of Egypt
<04714>_,

and linen yarn
<04723>_:

the king's
<04428>

merchants
<05503> (8802)

received
<03947> (8799)

the linen yarn
<04723>

at a price
<04242>_.

{And Solomon...: Heb. And the going forth of the horses which was Solomon's}

10:29

And a chariot
<04818>

came up
<05927> (8799)

and went out
<03318> (8799)

of Egypt
<04714>

for six
<08337>

hundred
<03967>

[shekels] of silver
<03701>_,

and an horse
<05483>

for an hundred
<03967>

and fifty
<02572>_:

and so for all the kings
<04428>

of the Hittites
<02850>_,

and for the kings
<04428>

of Syria
<0758>_,

did they bring [them] out
<03318> (8686)

by their means
<03027>_.

{by their...: Heb. by their hand}

1 Kings 14:1-31

14:1

At that time
<06256>

Abijah
<029>

the son
<01121>

of Jeroboam
<03379>

fell sick
<02470> (8804)_.

14:2

And Jeroboam
<03379>

said
<0559> (8799)

to his wife
<0802>_,

Arise
<06965> (8798)_,

I pray thee, and disguise
<08138> (8690)

thyself, that thou be not known
<03045> (8799)

to be the wife
<0802>

of Jeroboam
<03379>_;

and get
<01980> (8804)

thee to Shiloh
<07887>_:

behold, there [is] Ahijah
<0281>

the prophet
<05030>_,

which told
<01696> (8765)

me that [I should be] king
<04428>

over this people
<05971>_.

14:3

And take
<03947> (8804)

with thee
<03027>

ten
<06235>

loaves
<03899>_,

and cracknels
<05350>_,

and a cruse
<01228>

of honey
<01706>_,

and go
<0935> (8804)

to him: he shall tell
<05046> (8686)

thee what shall become of the child
<05288>_.

{with...: Heb. in thine hand} {cracknels: or, cakes} {cruse: or, bottle}

14:4

And Jeroboam's
<03379>

wife
<0802>

did so
<06213> (8799)_,

and arose
<06965> (8799)_,

and went
<03212> (8799)

to Shiloh
<07887>_,

and came
<0935> (8799)

to the house
<01004>

of Ahijah
<0281>_.

But Ahijah
<0281>

could
<03201> (8804)

not see
<07200> (8800)_;

for his eyes
<05869>

were set
<06965> (8804)

by reason of his age
<07869>_.

{were...: Heb. stood for his hoariness}

14:5

And the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8804)

unto Ahijah
<0281>_,

Behold, the wife
<0802>

of Jeroboam
<03379>

cometh
<0935> (8802)

to ask
<01875> (8800)

a thing
<01697>

of thee for her son
<01121>_;

for he [is] sick
<02470> (8802)_:

thus
<02090>

and thus shalt thou say
<01696> (8762)

unto her: for it shall be, when she cometh in
<0935> (8800)_,

that she shall feign herself [to be] another
<05234> (8693)

[woman].

14:6

And it was [so], when Ahijah
<0281>

heard
<08085> (8800)

the sound
<06963>

of her feet
<07272>_,

as she came in
<0935> (8802)

at the door
<06607>_,

that he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Come in
<0935> (8798)_,

thou wife
<0802>

of Jeroboam
<03379>_;

why feignest thou thyself [to be] another
<05234> (8693)_?

for I [am] sent
<07971> (8803)

to thee [with] heavy
<07186>

[tidings]. {heavy: Heb. hard}

14:7

Go
<03212> (8798)_,

tell
<0559> (8798)

Jeroboam
<03379>_,

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>_,

Forasmuch as
<03282>

I exalted
<07311> (8689)

thee from among
<08432>

the people
<05971>_,

and made
<05414> (8799)

thee prince
<05057>

over my people
<05971>

Israel
<03478>_,

14:8

And rent
<07167> (0)

the kingdom
<04467>

away
<07167> (8799)

from the house
<01004>

of David
<01732>_,

and gave
<05414> (8799)

it thee: and [yet] thou hast not been as my servant
<05650>

David
<01732>_,

who kept
<08104> (8804)

my commandments
<04687>_,

and who followed
<01980> (8804) <0310>

me with all his heart
<03824>_,

to do
<06213> (8800)

[that] only [which was] right
<03477>

in mine eyes
<05869>_;

14:9

But hast done
<06213> (8800)

evil
<07489> (8686)

above all that were before
<06440>

thee: for thou hast gone
<03212> (8799)

and made
<06213> (8799)

thee other
<0312>

gods
<0430>_,

and molten images
<04541>_,

to provoke me to anger
<03707> (8687)_,

and hast cast
<07993> (8689)

me behind
<0310>

thy back
<01458>_:

14:10

Therefore, behold, I will bring
<0935> (8688)

evil
<07451>

upon the house
<01004>

of Jeroboam
<03379>_,

and will cut off
<03772> (8689)

from Jeroboam
<03379>

him that pisseth
<08366> (8688)

against the wall
<07023>_,

[and] him that is shut up
<06113> (8803)

and left
<05800> (8803)

in Israel
<03478>_,

and will take away
<01197> (8765)

the remnant
<0310>

of the house
<01004>

of Jeroboam
<03379>_,

as a man taketh away
<01197> (8762)

dung
<01557>_,

till it be all gone
<08552> (8800)_.

14:11

Him that dieth
<04191> (8801)

of Jeroboam
<03379>

in the city
<05892>

shall the dogs
<03611>

eat
<0398> (8799)_;

and him that dieth
<04191> (8801)

in the field
<07704>

shall the fowls
<05775>

of the air
<08064>

eat
<0398> (8799)_:

for the LORD
<03068>

hath spoken
<01696> (8765)

[it].

14:12

Arise
<06965> (8798)

thou therefore, get
<03212> (8798)

thee to thine own house
<01004>_:

[and] when thy feet
<07272>

enter
<0935> (8800)

into the city
<05892>_,

the child
<03206>

shall die
<04191> (8804)_.

14:13

And all Israel
<03478>

shall mourn
<05594> (8804)

for him, and bury
<06912> (8804)

him: for he only of Jeroboam
<03379>

shall come
<0935> (8799)

to the grave
<06913>_,

because in him there is found
<04672> (8738)

[some] good
<02896>

thing
<01697>

toward the LORD
<03068>

God
<0430>

of Israel
<03478>

in the house
<01004>

of Jeroboam
<03379>_.

14:14

Moreover the LORD
<03068>

shall raise him up
<06965> (8689)

a king
<04428>

over Israel
<03478>_,

who shall cut off
<03772> (8686)

the house
<01004>

of Jeroboam
<03379>

that day
<03117>_:

but what? even now.

14:15

For the LORD
<03068>

shall smite
<05221> (8689)

Israel
<03478>_,

as a reed
<07070>

is shaken
<05110> (8799)

in the water
<04325>_,

and he shall root up
<05428> (8804)

Israel
<03478>

out of this good
<02896>

land
<0127>_,

which he gave
<05414> (8804)

to their fathers
<01>_,

and shall scatter
<02219> (8765)

them beyond
<05676>

the river
<05104>_,

because they have made
<06213> (8804)

their groves
<0842>_,

provoking the LORD
<03068>

to anger
<03707> (8688)_.

14:16

And he shall give
<05414> (0)

Israel
<03478>

up
<05414> (8799)

because
<01558>

of the sins
<02403>

of Jeroboam
<03379>_,

who did sin
<02398> (8804)_,

and who made Israel
<03478>

to sin
<02398> (8689)_.

14:17

And Jeroboam's
<03379>

wife
<0802>

arose
<06965> (8799)_,

and departed
<03212> (8799)_,

and came
<0935> (8799)

to Tirzah
<08656>_:

[and] when she came
<0935> (8802)

to the threshold
<05592>

of the door
<01004>_,

the child
<05288>

died
<04191> (8804)_;

14:18

And they buried
<06912> (8799)

him; and all Israel
<03478>

mourned
<05594> (8799)

for him, according to the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

which he spake
<01696> (8765)

by the hand
<03027>

of his servant
<05650>

Ahijah
<0281>

the prophet
<05030>_.

14:19

And the rest
<03499>

of the acts
<01697>

of Jeroboam
<03379>_,

how he warred
<03898> (8738)_,

and how he reigned
<04427> (8804)_,

behold, they [are] written
<03789> (8803)

in the book
<05612>

of the chronicles
<01697> <03117>

of the kings
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>_.

14:20

And the days
<03117>

which Jeroboam
<03379>

reigned
<04427> (8804)

[were] two
<08147>

and twenty
<06242>

years
<08141>_:

and he slept
<07901> (8799)

with his fathers
<01>_,

and Nadab
<05070>

his son
<01121>

reigned
<04427> (8799)

in his stead. {slept: Heb. lay down}

14:21

And Rehoboam
<07346>

the son
<01121>

of Solomon
<08010>

reigned
<04427> (8804)

in Judah
<03063>_.

Rehoboam
<07346>

[was] forty
<0705>

and one
<0259>

years
<08141>

old
<01121>

when he began to reign
<04427> (8800)_,

and he reigned
<04427> (8804)

seventeen
<07651> <06240>

years
<08141>

in Jerusalem
<03389>_,

the city
<05892>

which the LORD
<03068>

did choose
<0977> (8804)

out of all the tribes
<07626>

of Israel
<03478>_,

to put
<07760> (8800)

his name
<08034>

there. And his mother's
<0517>

name
<08034>

[was] Naamah
<05279>

an Ammonitess
<05985>_.

14:22

And Judah
<03063>

did
<06213> (8799)

evil
<07451>

in the sight
<05869>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

and they provoked him to jealousy
<07065> (8762)

with their sins
<02403>

which they had committed
<02398> (8804)_,

above all that their fathers
<01>

had done
<06213> (8804)_.

14:23

For they also built
<01129> (8799)

them high places
<01116>_,

and images
<04676>_,

and groves
<0842>_,

on every high
<01364>

hill
<01389>_,

and under every green
<07488>

tree
<06086>_.

{images: or, standing images, or, statues}

14:24

And there were also sodomites
<06945>

in the land
<0776>_:

[and] they did
<06213> (8804)

according to all the abominations
<08441>

of the nations
<01471>

which the LORD
<03068>

cast out
<03423> (8689)

before
<06440>

the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>_.

14:25

And it came to pass in the fifth
<02549>

year
<08141>

of king
<04428>

Rehoboam
<07346>_,

[that] Shishak
<07895>

king
<04428>

of Egypt
<04714>

came up
<05927> (8804)

against Jerusalem
<03389>_:

14:26

And he took away
<03947> (8799)

the treasures
<0214>

of the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

and the treasures
<0214>

of the king's
<04428>

house
<01004>_;

he even took away
<03947> (8804)

all: and he took away
<03947> (8799)

all the shields
<04043>

of gold
<02091>

which Solomon
<08010>

had made
<06213> (8804)_.

14:27

And king
<04428>

Rehoboam
<07346>

made
<06213> (8799)

in their stead brasen
<05178>

shields
<04043>_,

and committed
<06485> (8689)

[them] unto the hands
<03027>

of the chief
<08269>

of the guard
<07323> (8801)_,

which kept
<08104> (8802)

the door
<06607>

of the king's
<04428>

house
<01004>_.

{guard: Heb. runners}

14:28

And it was [so], when
<01767>

the king
<04428>

went
<0935> (8800)

into the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

that the guard
<07323> (8801)

bare
<05375> (8799)

them, and brought them back
<07725> (8689)

into the guard
<07323> (8801)

chamber
<08372>_.

14:29

Now the rest
<03499>

of the acts
<01697>

of Rehoboam
<07346>_,

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

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

in the book
<05612>

of the chronicles
<01697> <03117>

of the kings
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>_?

14:30

And there was war
<04421>

between Rehoboam
<07346>

and Jeroboam
<03379>

all [their] days
<03117>_.

14:31

And Rehoboam
<07346>

slept
<07901> (8799)

with his fathers
<01>_,

and was buried
<06912> (8735)

with his fathers
<01>

in the city
<05892>

of David
<01732>_.

And his mother's
<0517>

name
<08034>

[was] Naamah
<05279>

an Ammonitess
<05985>_.

And Abijam
<038>

his son
<01121>

reigned
<04427> (8799)

in his stead. {Abijam: also called, Abijah: Gr. Abia}
