1  ✡ 11:1: Rules2 17:17King Solomon wen love plenny wahines from odda places an like marry dem. He love Pharaoh daughtah—an wahines from da Moab peopo, da Ammon peopo, da Edom peopo, da Sidon peopo, an da Het peopo too. 2  ✡ 11:2: Outa 34:16; Rules2 7:3-4Dey come from diffren peopos, da ones Da One In Charge tell da Israel peopo bout dem befo time, “No marry dem. No let dem marry you. Cuz if you do dat, bumbye fo shua, dey goin make you come hamajang an you goin start fo follow dea gods, an stop fo follow me, yoa God!” But Solomon, he no can stop love da wahines. 3 He get 700 wifes come from king kine ohanas, an 300 odda kine wifes. An da wifes wen start fo make Solomon head come hamajang an he follow dea gods. 4 Den wen Solomon come ol, Solomon heart follow his wifes odda kine gods. Inside, he no stay okay cuz he no stay tight no mo wit his God, Da One In Charge. He no stay jalike his faddah guy David. 5 So Solomon go pray to Ashtoret, da wahine idol kine god dat da Sidon peopo stay pray to. He go pray to Molek too, da pilau kine idol god dat da Ammon peopo stay pray to. 6 Az why Da One In Charge see Solomon stay do bad kine stuff. He no stay tight wit Da One In Charge, da way his faddah David was.

7 He wen build one place on top da Olive Ridge across Jerusalem fo pray to Kemosh da pilau idol kine god dat da Moab peopo stay pray to, an anodda place fo Molek da pilau kine idol god dat da Ammon peopo stay pray to. 8 He wen do da same ting fo all da odda wifes he get from odda places, fo dem burn incense an make sacrifice fo dea gods.

9 Da One In Charge come huhu with Solomon, cuz he let his wifes turn him away from Da One In Charge. He no stay tight wit da God fo da Israel peopo, no matta God wen let Solomon see him two time. 10 No matta Da One In Charge tell Solomon no pray to odda gods dat not fo him, Solomon neva do wat Da One In Charge wen tell um fo do.

11 Az why Da One In Charge tell Solomon: “Cuz a all dis stuff you stay do, you no keep yoa side a da deal! You no do da tings I wen tell you dat you gotta do. Cuz a dat, dis wat I goin do. Fo shua I goin take away da right fo you be da king. I goin give one a da guys dat work fo you da right fo come da king. 12 But cuz a yoa faddah David, I no goin take um away from you da right fo be king, befo you mahke. But fo yoa boy, I goin take away da right fo him be da king. 13 Still yet, I no goin take away all da rights fo yoa boy be king. I goin give him jus yoa ohana an anodda ohana fo be dea king too, cuz David wen work fo me, an I awready pick Jerusalem town fo be mines.”

14 Den Da One In Charge set up one guy fo throw off Solomon. Dis guy was Hadad, from da king ohana Edom side. 15 Dis da story, how was fo Hadad. Befo time wen David stay fight da Edom peopo, his main army guy Joab wen go Edom side fo bury da Israel army guys dat da Edom guys wen kill. But wen Joab stay dea, he kill ery man dat live Edom side. 16 Joab an all da odda Israel army guys stay inside Edom fo six month, till all da Edom guys mahke. 17 Hadad ony was one young guy dat time, but him an some a da Edom guys dat work fo his faddah befo time, dey run away fo go Egypt side. 18 Dey start from Midian side, den dey go west Paran side. Dey take some guys wit dem from Paran an go Egypt side by da Pharaoh, da king fo da Egypt peopo. Da Pharaoh guy give Hadad one house, an tell his guys fo feed dem, an even give um some land.

19 Da Pharaoh guy fo real kine like Hadad. He give Hadad his sistah in law, Queen Tahpenes sistah, fo marry. 20 Tahpenes sistah wen born one boy Genubat fo Hadad. His auntie Tahpenes raise him right dea inside Pharaoh palace, wit Pharaoh kids.

21 Hadad stay Egypt side long time. Den he hear dat David wen mahke an stay sleep wit his ancesta guys, an he hear dat Joab da main Israel army guy mahke too. Hadad tell da Pharaoh guy, “Let me go, fo me go back my country.”

22 Da Pharaoh guy aks Hadad, “How come you like go back yoa country? Wat ova dea get dat mo betta den get ova hea by me?”

Hadad tell um, “Notting. Eryting okay ova hea. But, I like you let me go!” Dass how Hadad wen come back Edom side.

23 An God wen get anodda guy Rezon, Eliada boy, fo make pilikia fo Solomon too. Befo time, Rezon work fo Hadadezer, da king fo Zobah, but den he run away from Hadadezer. 24 Wen David wipe out da Zobah army guys, Rezon go get togedda plenny guys fo go by him, an he come da leada man fo one gang dat rip off peopo. Den Rezon an his gang guys go Damascus town an live dea, an take ova Damascus. 25 All da time Solomon stay alive, Rezon make trouble fo Solomon, jalike Hadad. Rezon stay king fo da Aram peopo, but he fo real kine hate da Israel peopo.

26 Jeroboam, Nebat boy, he go agains King Solomon too. Befo time, Jeroboam work fo Solomon. He from da Efraim ohana an live Zeredah side. His muddah, one widow Zeruah.

27 Dis da Jeroboam Numba One story how Jeroboam wen go agains King Solomon. Solomon wen fix up one place da army guys need fo nobody come attack Jerusalem. He fix one place wea da wall no go across one gulch, inside da big town his faddah David wen build. 28 Jeroboam was one awesome strong young guy. Solomon see how he do real good work. Az why he make him da head luna fo all da guys from da Efraim an Manasseh ohanas dat gotta come bus ass fo Solomon.

29 Dat time, Jeroboam go outside Jerusalem to da country side. Ahijah, da guy dat talk fo God dat live Shiloh side, meet Jeroboam on top da road, jus dem two guys out da country side. Ahijah stay wear one new robe. 30 Den Ahijah hold da new robe he stay wear, an broke um up fo make twelve piece. 31 Ahijah tell Jeroboam, “Take ten a da pieces fo you. Cuz dis wat Da One In Charge, da God fo da Israel peopo, tell. He tell, ‘Lissen up! I goin take away da right from Solomon fo be da king! An I goin give you ten a da Israel ohanas. Az why I stay broke dis robe fo make small pieces. 32 Cuz I get respeck fo my worka guy David, an fo Jerusalem town, da place I wen pick from all da Israel ohana land, get one ohana goin stay wit da David ohana. 33 Az cuz da Israel peopo wen leave me. Solomon go pray to Ashtoret da wahine god fo da Sidon peopo, an Kemosh da god fo da Moab peopo, an Molek da god fo da Ammon peopo. He no live da way I tell um fo live. He no do da tings dat I tell stay right. He no do wat I tell um he gotta do. He no lissen me, da real Judge. Solomon no make jalike David, his faddah, cuz David do all dat da right way.

34 “ ‘But I no goin take away all da rights Solomon get fo be king. I wen make him one king awready, fo all da time he stay alive. I goin let um stay king, cuz a his faddah David. I wen pick David, da guy dat do eryting I tell um he gotta do. An he wen stick wit my rules.

35 “ ‘But from Solomon boy, I goin take away da right fo him be king. I goin give you da right fo come king fo ten a da ohanas. 36 I jus goin leave da Judah ohana an anodda ohana fo Solomon boy. Cuz I like fo my worka guy David erytime get one guy dat come from him, Jerusalem side, fo show my peopo wea fo go, jalike one olive oil lamp dat goin burn in front me foeva. Az cuz I wen pick Jerusalem town fo be da place wea erybody can find out wat kine god me. 37 An fo you, I goin take you an make you da king fo be in charge eryting you eva like get. You goin be da king ova da Israel peopo. 38 An if you lissen an do eryting I tell you you gotta do, an if you do um my way, an do wat I tell stay right, an if you stay do da tings I tell you fo do, an follow my rules, jalike my worka guy David wen do, den I goin stick tight wit you. I goin make da ohana dat goin come from you stay solid, jalike I build one strong house fo you. Goin be solid jalike da David ohana stay solid. An I goin give you da Israel land. 39 I goin make da ohana dat come from David come shame cuz a wat Solomon stay do, but dey no goin come shame foeva.’ ”

40 Solomon wen try fo kill Jeroboam. But Jeroboam run away Egypt side by Shishak da king fo da Egypt peopo. He live dea till Solomon mahke.
