1So King Solomon was all about those sus vibes, loving all kinds of women, including Pharaoh’s daughter and those from Moab, Ammon, Edom, Zidonia, and Hittite lands.

2God was like, “Yo, don’t mess with those nations,” but Solomon was all in his feels and fell for them anyway.

3Dude had 700 wives and 300 side chicks, and they totally shifted his vibe.

4When Solomon got older, his wives pulled him away to other gods, and his heart wasn’t vibing with the Lord like David's was.

5Solomon was chasing after Ashtoreth, the Zidonians’ goddess, and Milcom, the Ammonites’ cringe idol.

6Solomon was low-key sus in the eyes of the Lord and didn’t fully commit like his dad, David.

7So he built a high place for Chemosh, the Moab abomination, right in front of Jerusalem, and also for Molech, the Ammonite fail.

8He did the same for all his strange wives, burning incense and offering sacrifices to their gods.

9The Lord was mad at Solomon because his heart was totally turned away from the God of Israel, who had shown up to him twice.

10God told him straight up not to chase other gods, but Solomon just ignored that.

11So God told Solomon, "Since you’re not vibing with my covenant and rules, I’m gonna snatch the kingdom from you and give it to your homie."

12But chill, I won’t do it while you’re still alive, 'cause of your dad David: I’ll just take it from your kid.

13Don’t trip, I won’t take the whole kingdom; I’ll leave one tribe for your son 'cause of my guy David and for the sake of Jerusalem, my top pick.

14Then God sent some drama Solomon’s way, like, Hadad the Edomite showed up, he was royal in Edom.

15This all went down when David was in Edom, and Joab, the captain, was out there burying the fallen after he took out every dude in Edom.

16Joab was chilling there for six months with all of Israel, making sure every male in Edom was gone.

17That’s when Hadad dipped, taking some Edomite homies with him to Egypt; he was just a little kid at the time.

18They bounced from Midian and rolled up to Paran, grabbing some guys from there, then hitting up Egypt to see Pharaoh, who hooked him up with a crib and food, plus some land.

19Hadad caught major vibes with Pharaoh, so he even got to marry Pharaoh’s wife’s sister, the queen’s sister, Tahpenes.

20And Tahpenes had a son named Genubath, who she raised in Pharaoh’s crib, chilling with Pharaoh’s kids.

21When Hadad heard in Egypt that David passed away and Joab was gone, he told Pharaoh, "Let me bounce back to my own place, fr."

22Pharaoh was like, "Why you trippin'? What’s wrong with you here?" He replied, "Nothing, just let me dip, no cap."

23God stirred up another beef for him, Rezon, son of Eliadah, who bounced from Hadadezer, king of Zobah.

24He gathered his crew and became the leader when David took out the Zobah squad; they rolled to Damascus and set up shop there.

25He was a total enemy of Israel during Solomon's reign, plus Hadad was causing chaos; he straight up hated Israel and ruled Syria.

26Jeroboam, son of Nebat, from Zereda, Solomon's dude, whose mom was a widow named Zeruah, even he threw shade at the king.

27The reason he threw shade? Solomon built Millo and fixed up David's city, and Jeroboam wasn’t having it.

28Jeroboam was a total boss; Solomon saw how hard he worked and made him the head of the house of Joseph, no cap.

29One day, when Jeroboam was leaving Jerusalem, the prophet Ahijah found him in the field, rocking a fresh outfit, just them two.

30Ahijah grabbed the new drip he was wearing and ripped it into twelve pieces, savage move.

31He told Jeroboam, "Yo, take ten pieces. God’s about to snatch the kingdom from Solomon and hand you ten tribes, no cap."

32"But I’ll keep one tribe for David's sake and Jerusalem, the city I chose, periodt."

33"They ditched me, worshipped Ashtoreth, Chemosh, and Milcom, and didn’t vibe with my ways or keep my rules like David did."

34"But I ain't taking the whole kingdom; he’ll still be prince for life because of my dude David, who followed my commandments."

35"I’m taking the kingdom from his son and giving it to you, all ten tribes."

36"To his son, I’ll give one tribe so David can always have a light in Jerusalem, the city I picked to put my name."

37"I’m choosing you, and you’ll reign over all your heart desires, king of Israel, fr."

38"If you listen to my commands and walk my ways, doing what’s right in my eyes like David did, I’ll be with you and build you a solid house."

39"I’ll mess with David’s descendants for this, but not forever."

40Solomon wanted to off Jeroboam, so Jeroboam bounced to Egypt, chilling with Shishak until Solomon kicked the bucket.

41So like, all the epic stuff Solomon did and his wisdom? Isn’t that in the book of his legendary acts?

42Solomon was king in Jerusalem for a solid forty years, no cap.

43Solomon passed away and got laid to rest in the city of David, and then his son Rehoboam took over.

1But king Solomon loved many strange women, together with the daughter of Pharaoh, women of the Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, Zidonians, and Hittites;

2Of the nations concerning which the Lord said unto the children of Israel, Ye shall not go in to them, neither shall they come in unto you: for surely they will turn away your heart after their gods: Solomon clave unto these in love.

3And he had seven hundred wives, princesses, and three hundred concubines: and his wives turned away his heart.

4For it came to pass, when Solomon was old, that his wives turned away his heart after other gods: and his heart was not perfect with the Lord his God, as was the heart of David his father.

5For Solomon went after Ashtoreth the goddess of the Zidonians, and after Milcom the abomination of the Ammonites.

6And Solomon did evil in the sight of the Lord, and went not fully after the Lord, as did David his father.

7Then did Solomon build an high place for Chemosh, the abomination of Moab, in the hill that is before Jerusalem, and for Molech, the abomination of the children of Ammon.

8And likewise did he for all his strange wives, which burnt incense and sacrificed unto their gods.

9And the Lord was angry with Solomon, because his heart was turned from the Lord God of Israel, which had appeared unto him twice,

10And had commanded him concerning this thing, that he should not go after other gods: but he kept not that which the Lord commanded.

11Wherefore the Lord said unto Solomon, Forasmuch as this is done of thee, and thou hast not kept my covenant and my statutes, which I have commanded thee, I will surely rend the kingdom from thee, and will give it to thy servant.

12Notwithstanding 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.

13Howbeit 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.

14And the Lord stirred up an adversary unto Solomon, Hadad the Edomite: he was of the king’s seed in Edom.

15For 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;

16(For six months did Joab remain there with all Israel, until he had cut off every male in Edom:)

17That Hadad fled, he and certain Edomites of his father’s servants with him, to go into Egypt; Hadad being yet a little child.

18And 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.

19And 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.

20And 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.

21And 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.

22Then 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.

23And God stirred him up another adversary, Rezon the son of Eliadah, which fled from his lord Hadadezer king of Zobah:

24And 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.

25And 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.

26And 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.

27And this was the cause that he lifted up his hand against the king: Solomon built Millo, and repaired the breaches of the city of David his father.

28And the man Jeroboam was a mighty man of valour: and Solomon seeing the young man that he was industrious, he made him ruler over all the charge of the house of Joseph.

29And it came to pass at that time when Jeroboam went out of Jerusalem, that the prophet Ahijah the Shilonite found him in the way; and he had clad himself with a new garment; and they two were alone in the field:

30And Ahijah caught the new garment that was on him, and rent it in twelve pieces:

31And he said to Jeroboam, Take thee ten pieces: for thus saith the Lord, the God of Israel, Behold, I will rend the kingdom out of the hand of Solomon, and will give ten tribes to thee:

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:)

33Because that they have forsaken me, and have worshipped Ashtoreth the goddess of the Zidonians, Chemosh the god of the Moabites, and Milcom the god of the children of Ammon, and have not walked in my ways, to do that which is right in mine eyes, and to keep my statutes and my judgments, as did David his father.

34Howbeit 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, because he kept my commandments and my statutes:

35But I will take the kingdom out of his son’s hand, and will give it unto thee, even ten tribes.

36And unto his son will I give one tribe, that David my servant may have a light alway before me in Jerusalem, the city which I have chosen me to put my name there.

37And I will take thee, and thou shalt reign according to all that thy soul desireth, and shalt be king over Israel.

38And it shall be, if thou wilt hearken unto all that I command thee, and wilt walk in my ways, and do that is right in my sight, to keep my statutes and my commandments, as David my servant did; that I will be with thee, and build thee a sure house, as I built for David, and will give Israel unto thee.

39And I will for this afflict the seed of David, but not for ever.

40Solomon sought therefore to kill Jeroboam. And Jeroboam arose, and fled into Egypt, unto Shishak king of Egypt, and was in Egypt until the death of Solomon.

41And the rest of the acts of Solomon, and all that he did, and his wisdom, are they not written in the book of the acts of Solomon?

42And the time that Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel was forty years.

43And Solomon slept with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David his father: and Rehoboam his son reigned in his stead.
