12. Nevertheless 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.
13. Neither will I take away the whole kingdom, but I will give one tribe to thy son for the sake of David my servant, and Jerusalem which I have chosen.
14. And the Lord raised up an adversary to Solomon, Adad the Edomite of the king's seed, in Edom.
15. For when David was in Edom, and Joab the general of the army was gone up to bury them that were slain, and had killed every male in Edom,
16. (For Joab remained there six months with all Israel, till he had slain every male in Edom,)
17. Then Adad fled, he and certain Edomites, of his father's servants with him, to go into Egypt: and Adad was then a little boy.
18. And they arose out of Madian, and came into Pharan, and they took men with them from Pharan, and went into Egypt to Pharao the king of Egypt: who gave him a house, and appointed him victuals, and assigned him land.
19. And Adad found great favour before Pharao, insomuch that he gave him to wife, the own sister of his wife Taphnes the queen.
20. And the sister of Taphnes bore him his son Genubath, and Taphnes brought him up in the house of Pharao: and Genubath dwelt with Pharao among his children.
