Then the Lord brought an enemy against Solomon. The enemy’s name was Hadad. He was from Edom. In fact, he belonged to the royal family of Edom.

耶和华使以东人哈达兴起，作所罗门的敌人；他是以东王的后裔。

耶和华使以东人哈达兴起，作所罗门的敌人；他是以东王的后裔。

耶和华使以东人哈达兴起，作所罗门的敌人；他是以东王的后裔。

耶和华使以东王的后裔哈达兴起，与所罗门为敌。

于是耶和华兴起一个人敌挡所罗门，他是以东王的后裔以东人哈达。

耶和華使以東人哈達興起，作所羅門的敵人；他是以東王的後裔。

耶和華使以東人哈達興起，作所羅門的敵人；他是以東王的後裔。

耶和華使以東人哈達興起，作所羅門的敵人；他是以東王的後裔。

耶和華使以東王的後裔哈達興起，與所羅門為敵。

於是耶和華興起一個人敵擋所羅門，他是以東王的後裔以東人哈達。

於是永恆主激起了一個敵擋所羅門的人，就是以東人哈達：他是王的後裔、在以東的。

耶和華使以東王後裔哈撻、敵所羅門。

其後主使以東人哈達、起而敵所羅門、斯人為以東王之後嗣、

Then the Lord raised up against Solomon an adversary, Hadad the Edomite, from the royal line of Edom.

And the Lord raised up an adversary against Solomon, Hadad the Edomite. He was of the royal house in Edom.

Then the Lord raised up Hadad the Edomite, a member of Edom’s royal family, to be Solomon’s adversary.

So the LORD raised up Hadad the Edomite as an enemy against Solomon. He was of the royal family in Edom.

Then the Lord raised up an adversary against Solomon, Hadad the Edomite; he was of the royal line in Edom.

Now the Lord raised up an adversary against Solomon, Hadad the Edomite; he was a descendant of the king in Edom.

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

So the Lord raised up Hadad the Edomite as an enemy against Solomon. He was of the royal family in Edom.

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

The LORD brought against Solomon an enemy, Hadad the Edomite, a descendant of the Edomite king.

Yahweh raised up an adversary to Solomon: Hadad the Edomite. He was one of the king’s offspring in Edom.

I will be his father. And he will be my son. When he does what is wrong, I will use other men to beat him with rods and whips.

“ What if his sons turn away from my laws and do not follow them?What if they disobey my orders and fail to keep my commands?Then I will punish them for their sins. I will strike them with a rod. I will whip them for their evil acts.But I will not stop loving David. I will always be faithful to him.I will not break my covenant. I will not go back on my word.

The Lord was very angry with Israel. He stirred up David against them. He said,“ Go! Count the men of Israel and Judah.”

King Saul, please listen to what I’m saying. Was it the Lord who made you angry with me? If it was, may he accept my offering. Was it people who made you angry at me? If it was, may the Lord see them cursed. They have driven me today from my share of the Lord’ s land. By doing that, they might as well have said,‘ Go and serve other gods.’

So the king didn’t listen to the people. That’s because the Lord had planned it that way. What he had said through Ahijah came true. Ahijah had spoken the Lord’ s message to Jeroboam, the son of Nebat. Ahijah was from Shiloh.

The Lord says,“ How terrible it will be for the people of Assyria! They are the war club that carries out my anger.

The Lord who rules over all will beat them with a whip. He will strike them down as he struck down Midian at the rock of Oreb. And he will stretch out his walking stick over the waters. That’s what he did in Egypt.

So the God of Israel stirred up the spirit of Pul. He was king of Assyria. He was also called Tiglath- Pileser. He took the tribes of Reuben and Gad and half of the tribe of Manasseh to other countries as his prisoners. He took them to Halah, Habor, Hara and the river of Gozan. And that’s where they still are to this day.

The Lord will stir up the Medes to attack the Babylonians. They aren’t interested in getting silver. They don’t want gold.
