1 Lengte 3
1 Solomon in Egypt Lengpa Pharaoh toh kinoptona khat anei lhon in a chanu holah a khat a kichen pi’n ahi. Ama inlah Leng inpi, Pakai hou in asah chai loulai jeh leh Jerusalem kimvel pal aki get chai loulai jeh in ajinu chu David khopia apui lut in a chenpi’n ahi.
And Solomon became the son-in-law of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and took Pharaoh's daughter, and brought her into the City of David, until he had made an end of building his own house, and the house of the LORD, and the wall of Jerusalem all around.
2 Hiche pet chun Pakai min dopsang na ding’a houin a kisah chai loulai jeh in, Israel mipi ten ama ama muncheh ah pumgo thilto aki sem un ahi.
Only the people sacrificed in the high places, because there was no house built for the name of the LORD until those days.
3 Solomon in Pakai a ngailun chule apa David thupeh ho jouse chu ajui sohkei jin ahi, chujongleh ama jengin jong pumgo thilto kilhaina ahin gim namtui halnam na ahin ama deina lailai mun ah ana bol jin ahi.
Solomon loved the LORD, walking in the statutes of David his father: only he sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places.
4 Hitobang’a Pathen houna mun thupi pen chu Gibeon ahi, hiche ahin achen pumgo thilto Sangkhat jen in kilhaina aga sem in ahi.
The king went to Gibeon to sacrifice there; for that was the great high place. Solomon offered a thousand burnt offerings on that altar.
5 Hiche jan chun Pakai chu Solomon kom ah amang in ana kilah in Pathen in asei jin ahi, “Ipi na dei ham? Thum'in nape ing kate!” ati.
In Gibeon the LORD appeared to Solomon in a dream by night; and God said, "Ask what I shall give you."
6 Solomon in a donbut in, “Nang in na sohpa kapa David kitah tah in na ngailun ahi, ajeh chu aman nangma lungtheng tahle thudihtah in, chuleh kitahna neitah in nana jui jing in ahi. Chuleh nang in a Laltouna lo theiding chapa khat napen ki tahtah in nana ngailu’n ahi.
Solomon said, "You have shown to your servant David my father great loving kindness, according as he walked before you in truth, and in righteousness, and in uprightness of heart with you. You have kept for him this great loving kindness, that you have given him a son to sit on his throne, as it is this day.
7 Hijeh chun, “O Pakai ka Pathen kapa David khel in Leng nei chansah tan ahi, ahinla keima hi i-macha helou chapang cha kahi bouvin ahi.
Now, LORD my God, you have made your servant king instead of David my father. I am but a little child. I do not know how to go out or come in.
8 Hiti hin keima hi nami lhen tum nam lentah le sim joulou mitam tahte lah a ka um'in ahi.
Your servant is in the midst of your people which you have chosen, a great people, that can't be numbered nor counted for multitude.
9 Hijeh chun hi tobang nam mite chung’a hi ka vaihom jouna ding leh thil adih leh adih lou ka hetkhen them theina dingin lungthim chihna neipen. Ajeh chu koiham ama changa hiche mipite hijat lah’a hi vaihom jou ding ah!” ati.
Give your servant therefore an understanding heart to judge your people, that I may discern between good and evil; for who is able to judge this your great people?"
10 Pakai chu Solomon in chihna athum chu a kipapi lheh in ahi.
The speech pleased the LORD, that Solomon had asked this thing.
11 Hijeh chun, Pathen in adonbut in, “Na gal mite thigam na ding le, haona ding ahi louleh hinkho sotna ding thum louva ka mite chung’a thu dihtah a navai hopna ding’a lungthim chihna na thum jeh in,
God said to him, "Because you have asked this thing, and have not asked for yourself long life, neither have asked riches for yourself, nor have asked the life of your enemies, but have asked for yourself understanding to discern justice;
12 Keiman nathum chu nape ing katin, hetthem theina lungthim leh koimacha dang in ana neikhah lou kho nung jong leh ahin nei khah lou ding chihna kapeh ding nahi.
look, I have done according to your word. Look, I have given you a wise and an understanding heart; so that there has been none like you before you, neither after you shall any arise like you.
13 Chuleh nang in na thum loubeh haona leh minthan na jong ka peh ding nahi! Hitia chu Leiset chung’a hi na hinkho lhumkei ja Leng dang koimacha toh tekah pithei nahi lou ding ahi,” ati.
I have also given you that which you have not asked, both riches and honor, so that there shall not be any among the kings like you, all your days.
14 Chuleh napa David bang’a ka Danthu leh ka Thupeh ho nanit’a na jui bukim soh leh hinkho sotna jong ka peh ding nahi,” ati.
If you will walk in my ways, to keep my statutes and my commandments, as your father David walked, then I will lengthen your days."
15 Hichun Solomon ahung thou in ahileh amang ahi ahin hedoh in ahi. Hichun ama Jerusalem ah akilen Pakai Kitepna Thingkong masang achun adingin pumgo thilto holeh chamna thilto kilhaina asem in chu leh ama ding’a panmun neiho jouse a koukhom in ankong loupitah asem in ahi.
Solomon awoke; and look, it was a dream. Then he arose and came to Jerusalem, and stood before the ark of the covenant of the LORD, and offered up burnt offerings, offered peace offerings, and made a feast for all his servants.
16 Chomkhat jouvin numei kijoh ni Lengpa kom ah aboina thu lhon a tanpeh dingin ahung lhon in ahi.
Then two women who were prostitutes came to the king, and stood before him.
17 Khat joh nu chun, “Nei lungset in kapu hiche nu hitoh inkhat na kachen khom lhon ahin, ama toh inkhatna ka umkhom lhon pet in keiman cha khat ka hing in ahi.
The one woman said, "Oh, my lord, I and this woman dwell in one house. I delivered a child with her in the house.
18 Nithum jouvin hichenu jong hin chakhat ahing in ahi. Hiche in na hi koimacha dang umlou, keini chang bou ka um lhon ahi.
It happened the third day after I delivered, that this woman delivered also. We were together. There was no stranger with us in the house, just us two in the house.
19 Ahin jan in amanu chun acha chu ana del lih tan ahi.
This woman's child died in the night, because she lay on it.
20 Hijou chun ama jan in a thoudoh in keima ka-ihmut pet in ka panga lum ka chapa chu ana kipom doh in, ama cha athisa chu keima anga ana koijin kei cha chu ana ki dop dohin alup pi tan ahi.
She arose at midnight, and took my son from beside me, while your handmaid slept, and laid it in her bosom, and laid her dead child in my bosom.
21 Jingkah lang in ka cha chu nao an kavah kigot leh athisa ana hitai! Ahin keiman jingkah lam khovah a kagah vetchil’a ahileh hichu ka chapa ana hi tapoi,” ati.
When I rose in the morning to nurse my child, look, it was dead; but when I had looked at it in the morning, look, it was not my son, whom I bore."
22 Hichun numei khat nu chun ahin pal tan in, “Hiche nangma cha ahin ahing joh chu keicha ahi!” atileh, numei amasa nu chun ahi poi, ahing joh chu kei cha ahin, athi chu nang’a joh ahi,” ati peh in, hiti hin Lengpa masanga chun achuti kinel lhon tan ahi.
The other woman said, "No; but the living is my son, and the dead is your son." This said, "No; but the dead is your son, and the living is my son." Thus they spoke before the king.
23 Hichun Lengpan, “Aphai atah chu ve’u hite, na ni lhon in naosen ahing joh chu keiya ahi nati lhon in, athi achu ama a joh ahi nati lhon’e.
Then the king said, "The one says, 'This is my son who lives, and your son is the dead;' and the other says, 'No; but your son is the dead one, and my son is the living one.'"
24 Aphai chemjam hin choi un,” ati. Hichun amahon chemjam chu Lengpa kom ah ahin choi tauve.
The king said, "Get me a sword." They brought a sword before the king.
25 Hichun aman asei tai, “Naosen ahing joh chu bohni souvin lang ani lhon chun hoppeh tauvin!” ati.
The king said, "Divide the living child in two, and give half to the one, and half to the other."
26 Hichun, numei naosen ahing joh anu mong mong nu chun, Naosen chu a-it behseh in ahung peng jah tai, “Oh Lengpa Kapu chuti ponte that hihin, chapang chu amanu joh pe tauvin,” ahin titai. Ahin khatnu chun ahin seijin, “Aphai, nangla chang lou keila changlou kani lhonin nei hop peh tauvin!” ati.
Then the woman whose the living child was spoke to the king, for her heart yearned over her son, and she said, "Oh, my lord, give her the living child, and in no way kill it." But the other said, "It shall be neither mine nor yours. Divide it."
27 Hichun Lengpan ahin seijin, “Naosen chu that hih un, ahin ding deinu chu pe tauvin ama chu anu tah tah ahi!” ati.
Then the king answered, "Give her the living child, and in no way kill it. She is its mother."
28 Israel mipiten lengpa thutan chu ajah doh phat un, Lengpa chu a kicha tauve, ajeh chu Pathen in thudihtah a thutan thei dinga chihna apeh ahi ti amudoh tauvin ahi.
All Israel heard of the judgment which the king had judged; and they feared the king: for they saw that the wisdom of God was in him, to do justice.
