King James Version (KJV) With Strong Codes

1. But king[H4428] Solomon[H8010] loved[H157] many[H7227] strange[H5237] women,[H802] together with[H854] the daughter[H1323] of Pharaoh,[H6547] women of the Moabites,[H4125] Ammonites,[H5984] Edomites,[H130] Zidonians,[H6722] and Hittites;[H2850]

2. Of[H4480] the nations[H1471] concerning which[H834] the LORD[H3068] said[H559] unto[H413] the children[H1121] of Israel,[H3478] Ye shall not[H3808] go in[H935] to them, neither[H3808] shall they[H1992] come in[H935] unto you: for surely[H403] they will turn away[H5186] [H853] your heart[H3824] after[H310] their gods:[H430] Solomon[H8010] cleaved[H1692] unto these in love.[H157]

3. And he had[H1961] seven[H7651] hundred[H3967] wives,[H802] princesses,[H8282] and three[H7969] hundred[H3967] concubines:[H6370] and his wives[H802] turned away[H5186] [H853] his heart.[H3820]

4. For it came to pass,[H1961] when[H6256] Solomon[H8010] was old,[H2209] that his wives[H802] turned away[H5186] [H853] his heart[H3824] after[H310] other[H312] gods:[H430] and his heart[H3824] was[H1961] not[H3808] perfect[H8003] with[H5973] the LORD[H3068] his God,[H430] as was the heart[H3824] of David[H1732] his father.[H1]

5. For Solomon[H8010] went[H1980] after[H310] Ashtoreth[H6253] the goddess[H430] of the Zidonians,[H6722] and after[H310] Milcom[H4445] the abomination[H8251] of the Ammonites.[H5984]

6. And Solomon[H8010] did[H6213] evil[H7451] in the sight[H5869] of the LORD,[H3068] and went not fully[H3808] [H4390] after[H310] the LORD,[H3068] as did David[H1732] his father.[H1]

7. Then[H227] did Solomon[H8010] build[H1129] a high place[H1116] for Chemosh,[H3645] the abomination[H8251] of Moab,[H4124] in the hill[H2022] that[H834] is before[H5921] [H6440] Jerusalem,[H3389] and for Molech,[H4432] the abomination[H8251] of the children[H1121] of Ammon.[H5983]

8. And likewise[H3651] did[H6213] he for all[H3605] his strange[H5237] wives,[H802] which burnt incense[H6999] and sacrificed[H2076] unto their gods.[H430]

9. And the LORD[H3068] was angry[H599] with Solomon,[H8010] because[H3588] his heart[H3824] was turned[H5186] from[H4480] [H5973] the LORD[H3068] God[H430] of Israel,[H3478] which had appeared[H7200] unto[H413] him twice,[H6471]

10. And had commanded[H6680] [H413] him concerning[H5921] this[H2088] thing,[H1697] that he should not[H1115] go[H1980] after[H310] other[H312] gods:[H430] but he kept[H8104] not[H3808] [H853] that which[H834] the LORD[H3068] commanded.[H6680]

11. Wherefore the LORD[H3068] said[H559] unto Solomon,[H8010] Forasmuch[H3282] as[H834] this[H2063] is[H1961] done of[H5973] thee, and thou hast not[H3808] kept[H8104] my covenant[H1285] and my statutes,[H2708] which[H834] I have commanded[H6680] [H5921] thee, I will surely rend[H7167] [H7167] [H853] the kingdom[H4467] from[H4480] [H5921] thee, and will give[H5414] it to thy servant.[H5650]

12. Notwithstanding[H389] in thy days[H3117] I will not[H3808] do[H6213] it for David thy father's sake:[H4616] [H1732] [H1] but I will rend[H7167] it out of the hand[H4480] [H3027] of thy son.[H1121]

13. Howbeit[H7535] I will not[H3808] rend away[H7167] [H853] all[H3605] the kingdom;[H4467] but will give[H5414] one[H259] tribe[H7626] to thy son[H1121] for David my servant's sake,[H4616] [H1732] [H5650] and for Jerusalem's sake[H4616] [H3389] which[H834] I have chosen.[H977]

14. And the LORD[H3068] stirred up[H6965] an adversary[H7854] unto Solomon,[H8010] [H853] Hadad[H1908] the Edomite:[H130] he[H1931] was of the king's seed[H4480] [H2233] [H4428] in Edom.[H123]

15. For it came to pass,[H1961] when David[H1732] was[H1961] in[H853] Edom,[H123] and Joab[H3097] the captain[H8269] of the host[H6635] was gone up[H5927] to bury[H6912] [H853] the slain,[H2491] after he had smitten[H5221] every[H3605] male[H2145] in Edom;[H123]

16. (For[H3588] six[H8337] months[H2320] did Joab[H3097] remain[H3427] there[H8033] with all[H3605] Israel,[H3478] until[H5704] he had cut off[H3772] every[H3605] male[H2145] in Edom: )[H123]

17. That Hadad[H111] fled,[H1272] he[H1931] and certain[H376] Edomites[H129] of his father's servants[H4480] [H5650] [H1] with[H854] him, to go[H935] into Egypt;[H4714] Hadad[H1908] being yet a little[H6996] child.[H5288]

18. And they arose[H6965] out of Midian,[H4480] [H4080] and came[H935] to Paran:[H6290] and they took[H3947] men[H376] with[H5973] them out of Paran,[H4480] [H6290] and they came[H935] to Egypt,[H4714] unto[H413] Pharaoh[H6547] king[H4428] of Egypt;[H4714] which gave[H5414] him a house,[H1004] and appointed[H559] him victuals,[H3899] and gave[H5414] him land.[H776]

19. And Hadad[H1908] found[H4672] great[H3966] favor[H2580] in the sight[H5869] of Pharaoh,[H6547] so that he gave[H5414] him to wife[H802] [H853] the sister[H269] of his own wife,[H802] the sister[H269] of Tahpenes[H8472] the queen.[H1377]

20. And the sister[H269] of Tahpenes[H8472] bore[H3205] him[H853] Genubath[H1592] his son,[H1121] whom Tahpenes[H8472] weaned[H1580] in[H8432] Pharaoh's[H6547] house:[H1004] and Genubath[H1592] was[H1961] in Pharaoh's[H6547] household[H1004] among[H8432] the sons[H1121] of Pharaoh.[H6547]

21. And when Hadad[H1908] heard[H8085] in Egypt[H4714] that[H3588] David[H1732] slept[H7901] with[H5973] his fathers,[H1] and that[H3588] Joab[H3097] the captain[H8269] of the host[H6635] was dead,[H4191] Hadad[H1908] said[H559] to[H413] Pharaoh,[H6547] Let me depart,[H7971] that I may go[H1980] to[H413] mine own country.[H776]

22. Then Pharaoh[H6547] said[H559] unto him, But[H3588] what[H4100] hast thou[H859] lacked[H2638] with[H5973] me, that, behold,[H2009] thou seekest[H1245] to go[H1980] to[H413] thine own country?[H776] And he answered,[H559] Nothing:[H3808] howbeit[H3588] let me go in any wise.[H7971] [H7971]

23. And God[H430] stirred him up[H6965] another adversary,[H7854] [H853] Rezon[H7331] the son[H1121] of Eliadah,[H450] which[H834] fled[H1272] from[H4480] [H854] his lord[H113] Hadadezer[H1909] king[H4428] of Zobah: [H6678]

24. And he gathered[H6908] men[H376] unto[H5921] him, and became[H1961] captain[H8269] over a band,[H1416] when David[H1732] slew[H2026] them of Zobah: and they went[H1980] to Damascus,[H1834] and dwelt[H3427] therein, and reigned[H4427] in Damascus.[H1834]

25. And he was[H1961] an adversary[H7854] to Israel[H3478] all[H3605] the days[H3117] of Solomon,[H8010] beside[H854] the mischief[H7451] that[H834] Hadad[H1908] did: and he abhorred[H6973] Israel,[H3478] and reigned[H4427] over[H5921] Syria.[H758]

26. And Jeroboam[H3379] the son[H1121] of Nebat,[H5028] an Ephrathite[H673] of[H4480] Zereda,[H6868] Solomon's[H8010] servant,[H5650] whose mother's[H517] name[H8034] was Zeruah,[H6871] a widow[H490] woman,[H802] even he lifted up[H7311] his hand[H3027] against the king.[H4428]

27. And this[H2088] was the cause[H1697] that[H834] he lifted up[H7311] his hand[H3027] against the king:[H4428] Solomon[H8010] built[H1129] [H853] Millo,[H4407] and repaired[H5462] [H853] the breaches[H6556] of the city[H5892] of David[H1732] his father.[H1]

28. And the man[H376] Jeroboam[H3379] was a mighty[H1368] man of valor:[H2428] and Solomon[H8010] seeing[H7200] [H853] the young man[H5288] that[H3588] he[H1931] was industrious,[H6213] [H4399] he made him ruler[H6485] [H853] over all[H3605] the charge[H5447] of the house[H1004] of Joseph.[H3130]

29. And it came to pass[H1961] at that[H1931] time[H6256] when Jeroboam[H3379] went out[H3318] of Jerusalem,[H4480] [H3389] that the prophet[H5030] Ahijah[H281] the Shilonite[H7888] found[H4672] him in the way;[H1870] and he[H1931] had clad himself[H3680] with a new[H2319] garment;[H8008] and they two[H8147] were alone[H905] in the field: [H7704]

30. And Ahijah[H281] caught[H8610] the new[H2319] garment[H8008] that[H834] was on[H5921] him, and rent[H7167] it in twelve[H8147] [H6240] pieces: [H7168]

31. And he said[H559] to Jeroboam,[H3379] Take[H3947] thee ten[H6235] pieces:[H7168] for[H3588] thus[H3541] saith[H559] the LORD,[H3068] the God[H430] of Israel,[H3478] Behold,[H2009] I will rend[H7167] [H853] the kingdom[H4467] out of the hand[H4480] [H3027] of Solomon,[H8010] and will give[H5414] [H853] ten[H6235] tribes[H7626] to thee:

32. (But he shall have[H1961] one[H259] tribe[H7626] for my servant David's sake,[H4616] [H1732] [H5650] and for Jerusalem's sake,[H4616] [H3389] the city[H5892] which[H834] I have chosen[H977] out of all[H4480] [H3605] the tribes[H7626] of Israel: )[H3478]

33. Because[H3282] that[H834] they have forsaken[H5800] me, and have worshiped[H7812] Ashtoreth[H6253] the goddess[H430] of the Zidonians,[H6721] Chemosh[H3645] the god[H430] of the Moabites,[H4124] and Milcom[H4445] the god[H430] of the children[H1121] of Ammon,[H5983] and have not[H3808] walked[H1980] in my ways,[H1870] to do[H6213] that which is right[H3477] in mine eyes,[H5869] and to keep my statutes[H2708] and my judgments,[H4941] as did David[H1732] his father.[H1]

34. Howbeit I will not[H3808] take[H3947] [H853] the whole[H3605] kingdom[H4467] out of his hand:[H4480] [H3027] but[H3588] I will make[H7896] him prince[H5387] all[H3605] the days[H3117] of his life[H2416] for David my servant's sake,[H4616] [H1732] [H5650] whom[H834] [H853] I chose,[H977] because[H834] he kept[H8104] my commandments[H4687] and my statutes: [H2708]

35. But I will take[H3947] the kingdom[H4410] out of his son's hand,[H4480] [H3027] [H1121] and will give[H5414] it unto thee, even[H853] ten[H6235] tribes.[H7626]

36. And unto his son[H1121] will I give[H5414] one[H259] tribe,[H7626] that[H4616] David[H1732] my servant[H5650] may have[H1961] a light[H5216] always[H3605] [H3117] before[H6440] me in Jerusalem,[H3389] the city[H5892] which[H834] I have chosen[H977] me to put[H7760] my name[H8034] there.[H8033]

37. And I will take[H3947] thee, and thou shalt reign[H4427] according to all[H3605] that[H834] thy soul[H5315] desireth,[H183] and shalt be[H1961] king[H4428] over[H5921] Israel.[H3478]

38. And it shall be,[H1961] if[H518] thou wilt hearken unto[H8085] [H853] all[H3605] that[H834] I command[H6680] thee, and wilt walk[H1980] in my ways,[H1870] and do[H6213] that is right[H3477] in my sight,[H5869] to keep[H8104] my statutes[H2708] and my commandments,[H4687] as[H834] David[H1732] my servant[H5650] did;[H6213] that I will be[H1961] with[H5973] thee, and build[H1129] thee a sure[H539] house,[H1004] as[H834] I built[H1129] for David,[H1732] and will give[H5414] [H853] Israel[H3478] unto thee.

39. And I will for[H4616] this[H2063] afflict[H6031] [H853] the seed[H2233] of David,[H1732] but[H389] not[H3808] forever.[H3605] [H3117]

40. Solomon[H8010] sought[H1245] therefore to kill[H4191] [H853] Jeroboam.[H3379] And Jeroboam[H3379] arose,[H6965] and fled[H1272] into Egypt,[H4714] unto[H413] Shishak[H7895] king[H4428] of Egypt,[H4714] and was[H1961] in Egypt[H4714] until[H5704] the death[H4194] of Solomon.[H8010]

41. And the rest[H3499] of the acts[H1697] of Solomon,[H8010] and all[H3605] that[H834] he did,[H6213] and his wisdom,[H2451] are they[H1992] not[H3808] written[H3789] in[H5921] the book[H5612] of the acts[H1697] of Solomon?[H8010]

42. And the time[H3117] that[H834] Solomon[H8010] reigned[H4427] in Jerusalem[H3389] over[H5921] all[H3605] Israel[H3478] was forty[H705] years.[H8141]

43. And Solomon[H8010] slept[H7901] with[H5973] his fathers,[H1] and was buried[H6912] in the city[H5892] of David[H1732] his father:[H1] and Rehoboam[H7346] his son[H1121] reigned[H4427] in his stead.[H8478]
