11:011:012 Notwithstanding 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.
11:011:013 Howbeit I will not rend away all the kingdom;
but will give
one
tribe to thy son for David my servant’s sake,
and for
Jerusalem’s
sake which I have chosen.
11:011:014 And the lord stirred up an adversary
unto Solomon, Hadad the
Edomite:
he was of the king’s seed in Edom.
11:011:015 For it came to pass, when David was in
Edom, and Joab the
captain
of the host was gone up to bury the slain, after he
had
smitten every male in Edom;
11:011:016 (For six months did Joab remain there with
all Israel, until
he
had cut off every male in Edom:)
11:011:017 That Hadad fled, he and certain Edomites
of his father’s
servants
with him, to go into Egypt; Hadad being yet a little
child.
11:011:018 And they arose out of Midian, and came
to Paran: and they took
men
with them out of Paran, and they came to Egypt, unto
Pharaoh
king of Egypt; which gave him an house, and appointed
him
victuals, and gave him land.
11:011:019 And Hadad found great favour in the sight
of Pharaoh, so that
he
gave him to wife the sister of his own wife, the sister
of
Tahpenes
the queen.
11:011:020 And the sister of Tahpenes bare him Genubath
his son, whom
Tahpenes
weaned in Pharaoh’s house: and Genubath
was in
Pharaoh’s
household among the sons of Pharaoh.
11:011:021 And when Hadad heard in Egypt that David
slept with his
fathers,
and that Joab the captain of the host was dead, Hadad
said
to Pharaoh, Let me depart, that I may go to mine own
country.
11:011:022 Then Pharaoh said unto him, But what hast
thou lacked with me,
that,
behold, thou seekest to go to thine own country?
And he
answered,
Nothing: howbeit let me go in any wise.
11:011:023 And God stirred him up another adversary,
Rezon the son of
Eliadah,
which fled from his lord Hadadezer king of Zobah:
11:011:024 And he gathered men unto him, and became
captain over a band,
when
David slew them of Zobah: and they went to Damascus,
and
dwelt
therein, and reigned in Damascus.
11:011:025 And he was an adversary to Israel all the
days of Solomon,
beside
the mischief that Hadad did: and he abhorred Israel,
and
reigned over Syria.
11:011:026 And Jeroboam the son of Nebat, an Ephrathite
of Zereda,
Solomon’s
servant, whose mother’s name was Zeruah, a widow
woman,
even he lifted up his hand against the king.
