10. He had commanded him about this, so that he would not follow other gods, but Solomon did not do what the Lord had commanded.
11. Then the Lord said to Solomon, “Since you have done this and did not keep My covenant and My statutes, which I commanded you, I will tear the kingdom away from you and give it to your servant.
12. However, I will not do it during your lifetime because of your father David; I will tear it out of your son’s hand.
13. Yet I will not tear the entire kingdom away from him. I will give one tribe to your son because of my servant David and because of Jerusalem that I chose.”
14. So the Lord raised up Hadad the Edomite as an enemy against Solomon. He was of the royal family in Edom.
15. Earlier, when David was in Edom, Joab, the commander of the army, had gone to bury the dead and had struck down every male in Edom.
16. For Joab and all Israel had remained there six months, until he had killed every male in Edom.
