22 Et Pharaon lui dit: Que te manque-t-il auprès de moi, pour que tu désires aller dans ton pays? Il répondit: Rien, mais laisse-moi partir.

23 Dieu suscita un autre ennemi à Salomon: Rezon, fils d’Éliada, qui s’était enfui de chez son maître Hadadézer, roi de Tsoba.

24 Il avait rassemblé des gens auprès de lui, et il était chef de bande, lorsque David massacra les troupes de son maître. Ils allèrent à Damas, et s’y établirent, et ils régnèrent à Damas.

25 Il fut un ennemi d’Israël pendant toute la vie de Salomon, en même temps qu’Hadad lui faisait du mal, et il avait Israël en aversion. Il régna sur la Syrie.

26 Jéroboam aussi, serviteur de Salomon, leva la main contre le roi. Il était fils de Nebath, Éphratien de Tseréda, et il avait pour mère une veuve nommée Tserua.
