WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Pero el rey Salomón, además de la hija de Faraón, amó a muchas mujeres extranjeras: moabitas, amonitas, edomitas, sidonias y heteas,
1 Now King Solomon loved many foreign women, together with the daughter of Pharaoh: women of the Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, Sidonians, and Hittites,
2 que eran de pueblos de los cuales Yavé dijo a los hijos de Israel: No se unan a ellas, ni ellas se unan a ustedes, no sea que desvíen sus corazones tras sus ʼelohim. Salomón se apegó a éstas con pasión,
2 of the nations concerning which Yahweh said to the children of Israel, “You shall not go among them, neither shall they come among you, for surely they will turn away your heart after their gods.” Solomon joined to these in love.
3 pues tuvo 700 reinas y 300 concubinas, las cuales pervirtieron su corazón.
3 He had seven hundred wives, princesses, and three hundred concubines. His wives turned his heart away.
4 Porque cuando Salomón era anciano, sucedió que sus mujeres hicieron desviar su corazón hacia otros ʼelohim, y ya su corazón no estuvo sumiso a la voluntad de Yavé su ʼElohim, como el corazón de su padre David.
4 When Solomon was old, his wives turned away his heart after other gods; and his heart was not perfect with Yahweh his God, as the heart of David his father was.
5 Salomón anduvo tras Astarté, ʼelohim de los sidonios, y Milcom, ídolo repugnante de los amonitas.
5 For Solomon went after Ashtoreth the goddess of the Sidonians, and after Milcom the abomination of the Ammonites.
6 Salomón hizo lo malo ante Yavé y no siguió plenamente a Yavé como su padre David,
6 Solomon did that which was evil in Yahweh’s sight, and didn’t go fully after Yahweh, as David his father did.
7 pues edificó en la montaña que está frente a Jerusalén un lugar alto a Quemos, ídolo repugnante de Moab, y a Moloc, ídolo repugnante de los hijos de Amón.
7 Then Solomon built a high place for Chemosh the abomination of Moab, on the mountain that is before Jerusalem, and for Molech the abomination of the children of Ammon.
8 Hizo esto para todas sus mujeres extranjeras, quienes quemaban incienso y ofrecían sacrificios a sus ʼelohim.
8 So he did for all his foreign wives, who burned incense and sacrificed to their gods.
9 Yavé se airó contra Salomón, porque su corazón se desvió de Yavé, ʼElohim de Israel, Quien se le apareció dos veces
9 Yahweh was angry with Solomon, because his heart was turned away from Yahweh, the God of Israel, who had appeared to him twice,
10 y con respecto a esto le mandó que no siguiera a otros ʼelohim. Pero él no observó lo que Yavé le ordenó.
10 and had commanded him concerning this thing, that he should not go after other gods; but he didn’t keep that which Yahweh commanded.
11 Entonces Yavé dijo a Salomón: Por cuanto esto está en tu mente, y no guardaste mi Pacto y mis Preceptos que te ordené, romperé tu reino y lo daré a tu esclavo.
11 Therefore Yahweh said to Solomon, “Because this is done by you, and you have not kept my covenant and my statutes, which I have commanded you, I will surely tear the kingdom from you, and will give it to your servant.
12 Pero por amor a tu padre David, no lo haré en tus días. Lo romperé de la mano de un hijo tuyo.
12 Nevertheless, I will not do it in your days, for David your father’s sake; but I will tear it out of your son’s hand.
13 Pero no le arrebataré todo el reino, sino que le daré a tu hijo una tribu, por amor a mi esclavo David y por amor a Jerusalén, la que escogí.
13 However, I will not tear away all the kingdom; but I will give one tribe to your son, for David my servant’s sake, and for Jerusalem’s sake which I have chosen.”
14 Yavé levantó un adversario contra Salomón: Hadad edomita, de la descendencia real en Edom.
14 Yahweh raised up an adversary to Solomon: Hadad the Edomite. He was one of the king’s offspring in Edom.
15 Porque sucedió que cuando David estuvo en Edom, y Joab, general del ejército, subió a enterrar los muertos y mató a todos los varones de Edom,
15 For when David was in Edom, and Joab the captain of the army had gone up to bury the slain, and had struck every male in Edom
16 porque Joab y todo Israel permanecieron allí seis meses hasta que exterminaron a todos los varones de Edom,
16 (for Joab and all Israel remained there six months, until he had cut off every male in Edom),
17 Hadad, cuando era todavía niño, huyó a Egipto con algunos edomitas de los esclavos de su padre.
17 Hadad fled, he and certain Edomites of his father’s servants with him, to go into Egypt, when Hadad was still a little child.
18 Salieron de Madián, fueron a Parán, tomaron consigo a algunos hombres de Parán y llegaron a Egipto, a Faraón, rey de Egipto, quien le dio una casa y le asignó alimentos y tierras.
18 They arose out of Midian and came to Paran; and they 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 food, and gave him land.
19 Hadad halló gran favor ante Faraón, quien le dio como esposa a la hermana de su esposa, la hermana de la reina Tahpenés.
19 Hadad found great favor in the sight of Pharaoh, so that he gave him as wife the sister of his own wife, the sister of Tahpenes the queen.
20 La hermana de Tahpenés le dio a luz a su hijo Genubat, a quien Tahpenés amamantó en la casa de Faraón. Y Genubat estaba en la casa del Faraón, entre los hijos del Faraón.
20 The sister of Tahpenes bore him Genubath his son, whom Tahpenes weaned in Pharaoh’s house; and Genubath was in Pharaoh’s house among the sons of Pharaoh.
21 Cuando Hadad supo en Egipto que David reposó con sus antepasados, y que Joab, general del ejército, murió, dijo a Faraón: Permite que vaya y regrese a mi tierra.
21 When Hadad heard in Egypt that David slept with his fathers, and that Joab the captain of the army was dead, Hadad said to Pharaoh, “Let me depart, that I may go to my own country.”
22 Faraón le preguntó: Pero, ¿qué te falta conmigo para que procures regresar a tu tierra? Y él respondió: Nada, pero de todos modos déjame ir.
22 Then Pharaoh said to him, “But what have you lacked with me, that behold, you seek to go to your own country?” He answered, “Nothing, however only let me depart.”
23 ʼElohim también le levantó como adversario a Rezón, hijo de Eliada, el cual huyó de su ʼadón Hadad-ezer, rey de Soba.
23 God raised up an adversary to him, Rezon the son of Eliada, who had fled from his lord, Hadadezer king of Zobah.
24 Éste reunió gente y fue jefe de una banda armada cuando David destrozó a los de Soba. Fueron a Damasco. Allí vivieron y reinaron.
24 He gathered men to himself, and became captain over a troop, when David killed them of Zobah. They went to Damascus and lived there, and reigned in Damascus.
25 Fue adversario de Israel todos los días de Salomón, además del mal que Hadad hacía. Fue hostil a Israel y reinó sobre Siria.
25 He was an adversary to Israel all the days of Solomon, in addition to the mischief of Hadad. He abhorred Israel, and reigned over Syria.
26 También Jeroboam, hijo de Nabat, efrateo de Zereda, esclavo de Salomón, cuya madre era una viuda llamada Zerúa, se rebeló y alzó su mano contra el rey.
26 Jeroboam the son of Nebat, an Ephraimite of Zeredah, a servant of Solomon, whose mother’s name was Zeruah, a widow, also lifted up his hand against the king.
27 Ésta fue la causa por la cual alzó su mano contra el rey: Salomón edificó [la fortaleza] el Milo y cerró la brecha del muro de la ciudad de su padre David.
27 This was the reason why he lifted up his hand against the king: Solomon built Millo, and repaired the breach of his father David’s city.
28 Jeroboam era hombre esforzado, y al ver Salomón que el joven era eficiente, lo designó como encargado de todos los trabajos forzados de la casa de José.
28 The man Jeroboam was a mighty man of valor; and Solomon saw that the young man was industrious, and he put him in charge of all the labor of the house of Joseph.
29 En aquel tiempo aconteció que Jeroboam salió de Jerusalén. En el camino encontró al profeta Ahías silonita, quien estaba vestido con una capa nueva. Estaban ellos dos solos en el campo.
29 At that time, when Jeroboam went out of Jerusalem, the prophet Ahijah the Shilonite found him on the way. Now Ahijah had clad himself with a new garment; and the two of them were alone in the field.
30 Entonces Ahías tomó el manto nuevo que [llevaba] sobre él, lo rasgó en 12 trozos
30 Ahijah took the new garment that was on him, and tore it in twelve pieces.
31 y dijo a Jeroboam: Toma tú diez trozos, porque Yavé, ʼElohim de Israel, dice: Mira, Yo rasgo el reino de la mano de Salomón, y a ti te doy diez tribus.
31 He said to Jeroboam, “Take ten pieces; for Yahweh, the God of Israel, says, ‘Behold, I will tear the kingdom out of the hand of Solomon and will give ten tribes to you
32 Pues él tendrá una tribu, por amor a mi esclavo David y por amor a Jerusalén, la ciudad que Yo escogí entre todas las tribus de Israel.
32 (but he shall have one tribe, for my servant David’s sake and for Jerusalem’s sake, the city which I have chosen out of all the tribes of Israel),
33 Porque me abandonaron y se postraron ante Astarté, ʼelohim de los sidonios, Quemos, ʼelohim de Moab, y Milcom, ʼelohim de los hijos de Amón. No anduvieron en mis caminos para hacer lo recto delante de Mí y guardar mis Estatutos y mis Preceptos, como su padre David.
33 because they have forsaken me, and have worshiped Ashtoreth the goddess of the Sidonians, Chemosh the god of Moab, and Milcom the god of the children of Ammon. They have not walked in my ways, to do that which is right in my eyes, and to keep my statutes and my ordinances, as David his father did.
34 Pero no quitaré de su mano todo el reino, porque lo designé como gobernante todos los días de su vida, por amor a mi esclavo David, a quien Yo elegí, quien guardó mis Mandamientos y mis Preceptos.
34 “‘However, I will not take the whole 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 statutes,
35 Pero quitaré el reino de mano de su hijo y te daré diez tribus a ti.
35 but I will take the kingdom out of his son’s hand and will give it to you, even ten tribes.
36 A su hijo le daré una tribu, para que mi esclavo David tenga en él una lámpara delante de Mí todos los días en Jerusalén, la ciudad que Yo escogí para poner allí mi Nombre.
36 I will give one tribe to his son, that David my servant may have a lamp always before me in Jerusalem, the city which I have chosen for myself to put my name there.
37 Yo, pues, te tomaré a ti, y tú reinarás sobre todo lo que desee tu alma, y serás rey sobre Israel.
37 I will take you, and you shall reign according to all that your soul desires, and shall be king over Israel.
38 Sucederá que si obedeces todo lo que te mande, andas en mis caminos y haces lo recto ante mis ojos al guardar mis Preceptos y mis Mandamientos como hizo mi esclavo David, Yo estaré contigo, te edificaré una casa firme, como se la edifiqué a David, y te entregaré Israel.
38 It shall be, if you will listen to all that I command you, and will walk in my ways, and do that which is right in my eyes, to keep my statutes and my commandments, as David my servant did, that I will be with you, and will build you a sure house, as I built for David, and will give Israel to you.
39 Por esto humillaré la descendencia de David, pero no para siempre.
39 I will afflict the offspring of David for this, but not forever.’”
40 Entonces Salomón procuró matar a Jeroboam. Pero éste se levantó y huyó a Sisac, rey de Egipto. Estuvo en Egipto hasta la muerte de Salomón.
40 Therefore Solomon sought to kill Jeroboam, but Jeroboam arose and fled into Egypt, to Shishak king of Egypt, and was in Egypt until the death of Solomon.
41 Los demás hechos y cosas de Salomón y su sabiduría, ¿no están escritos en el rollo de las Crónicas de Salomón?
41 Now the rest of the acts of Solomon, and all that he did, and his wisdom, aren’t they written in the book of the acts of Solomon?
42 Los días que Salomón reinó en Jerusalén sobre todo Israel fueron 40 años.
42 The time that Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel was forty years.
43 Salomón durmió con sus antepasados y fue sepultado en la ciudad de su padre David, y Roboam su hijo reinó en su lugar.
43 Solomon slept with his fathers, and was buried in his father David’s city; and Rehoboam his son reigned in his place.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
… him Scripture is not silent, but accuses him of being a lover of strange women; for in the beginning of his reign he was inflamed with a desire for wisdom, but after he had attained it through spiritual love, he lost it through carnal lust.
