1 Kings 3
1 Solomon made a marriage alliance with Pharaoh king of Egypt. He took Pharaoh’s daughter and brought her into David’s city until he had finished building his own house, the LORD’s house, and the wall around Jerusalem.
Nanao filongoañe am-panambaliañe amy Parò mpanjaka’ i Mitsraime t’i Selomò, ie nañenga ty anak’ampela’ i Parò, vaho nendese’e an-drova’ i Davide ampara’ te nifonitse ty anjomba nandranjia’e naho ty anjomba’ Iehovà naho ty kijoli’ Ierosalaime nañarikatoke aze.
2 However, the people sacrificed in the high places, because there was not yet a house built for the LORD’s name.
Nanao soroñe ankaboañe eñe ondatio, amy t’ie tsy aman’ anjomba rinafitse ho amy tahina’ Iehovày tañ’andro izay.
3 Solomon loved the LORD, walking in the statutes of David his father, except that he sacrificed and burned incense in the high places.
Nikokoa’ i Selomò t’Iehovà naho nañavelo amo fañèn-drae’eo; f’ie nanao soroñe an-kaboañe eo.
4 The king went to Gibeon to sacrifice there, for that was the great high place. Solomon offered a thousand burnt offerings on that altar.
Nimb’e Gibone añe i mpanjakay hisoroñe amy te izay ty haboañe bey; soroñe arivo ty nengae’ i Selomò amy kitrely zay.
5 In Gibeon, the LORD appeared to Solomon in a dream by night; and God said, “Ask for what I should give you.”
Ie te Gibone añe, le nisodehañe amy Selomò haleñe ami’ty nofy t’Iehovà; le hoe t’i Andrianañahare: Mihalalia, Ino ty hatoloko azo?
6 Solomon said, “You have shown to your servant David my father great loving kindness, because he walked before you in truth, 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 today.
Le hoe t’i Selomò: Fañisoham-bey ty natolo’o amy Davide raeko mpitoro’o, ie nañavelo añatrefa’o an-katò naho an-kavantañañe, naho an-kavañonan’ arofo vaho nahaja’o ho aze o fatarihañe ra’elahy zao te tinolo’o anake hiambesatse amy fiambesa’ey manahake henanekeo.
7 Now, LORD my God, you have made your servant king instead of David my father. I am just a little child. I do not know how to go out or come in.
Ie henane zao, ry Iehovà Andrianañahareko, fa nanoe’o mpanjaka handimbe i Davide raeko ty mpitoro’o; izaho mbe anak’ ajaja, tsy mahay miakatse ndra mimoake.
8 Your servant is among your people which you have chosen, a great people, that cannot be numbered or counted for multitude.
Le añivo’ ondati’o jinobo’oo ty mpitoro’o, ondaty mitozantozañe tsy lefe iaheñe ami’ty havasiaña’e.
9 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 great people of yours?”
Aa le toloro troke mahilala ty mpitoro’o hahafizaka’e ondati’oo, hahafitsakorea’e añivo’ ty soa naho ty raty; fa ia ty hahafizaka ondati’o ra’elahy retoañe?
10 This request pleased the Lord, that Solomon had asked this thing.
Nisoa ampihaino’ i Talè, i nihalalia’ i Selomòy.
11 God said to him, “Because you have asked this thing, and have not asked for yourself long life, nor have you asked for riches for yourself, nor have you asked for the life of your enemies, but have asked for yourself understanding to discern justice,
Le hoe t’i Andrianañahare ama’e: Kanao izay ty nihalalia’o, naho tsy hinalali’o ho azo ty halava-haveloñe, tsy hinalali’o ho azo ty vara-bey, tsy hinalali’o ty fiain-drafelahi’o; fe nihalalie’o ty fahafohinañe hahatsikaritse ty hatò.
12 behold, I have done according to your word. Behold, I have given you a wise and understanding heart, so that there has been no one like you before you, and after you none will arise like you.
Inao, nanoeko i sinaontsi’oy: ingo te nitolorako arofo mahihitse naho mahilala; kanao tsy eo ty nanahak’ azo taolo’o, naho tsy ho amam-panonjohy hitroatse hañirinkiriñe azo;
13 I have also given you that which you have not asked, both riches and honor, so that there will not be any among the kings like you for all your days.
vaho natoloko azo ka o tsy nihalalie’oo, ty vara naho ty asiñe, soa tsy eo ty mpanjaka hanahak’ azo amo hene andro’oo.
14 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.”
Aa naho añaveloa’o o lalakoo, hañambeñe o fañèkoo naho o lilikoo, manahake ty fañaveloan-drae’o Davide, le halavaeko o andro’oo.
15 Solomon awoke; and behold, it was a dream. Then he came to Jerusalem and stood before the ark of the LORD’s covenant, and offered up burnt offerings, offered peace offerings, and made a feast for all his servants.
Nivañoñe amy zao t’i Selomò le naheo’e t’ie nofy; nomb’e Ierosalaime mb’eo re, nijohañe añatrefa’ i vatam-pañina’ i Talèy eo le nañenga soroñe naho engam-panintsiñañe, vaho nanoa’e sabadidake o mpitoro’e iabio.
16 Then two women who were prostitutes came to the king, and stood before him.
Niheo mb’amy mpanjakay amy zao ty karapilo roe, nijohañe añatrefa’e eo
17 The one woman said, “Oh, my lord, I and this woman dwell in one house. I delivered a child with her in the house.
le hoe ty rakemba raike: O ry talèko, mitrao-pimoneñe an-kibohotse ami’ty rakemba tiañe iraho; vaho nahatoly ajaja t’ie an-traño ao.
18 The third day after I delivered, this woman delivered also. We were together. There was no stranger with us in the house, just us two in the house.
Aa ie amy andro fahatelo’ i niterahakoiy le nahatoly ka o rakembao, vaho niharo ao zahay; tsy aman’ ambahiny i kibohotsey naho tsy zahay roe avao ty an-traño ao.
19 This woman’s child died in the night, because she lay on it.
Nisimba haleñe ty ana’ i rakembay, amy te nandrea’e.
20 She arose at midnight, and took my son from beside me while your servant slept, and laid it in her bosom, and laid her dead child in my bosom.
Nitroatse amy haleñey re nandrambe i anadahiko marine ahiy, ie niroro ty anak’ ampata’o, le nampandre’e añ’ araña’e; vaho napo’e añ’ arañako eo i ana’e niopoy.
21 When I rose in the morning to nurse my child, behold, he was dead; but when I had looked at him in the morning, behold, it was not my son whom I bore.”
Aa izaho nañente te maraindray hampinono i anakoy, hehe te mate; f’ie nibiribirieko amy maraiñey; hete! tsy i ana-dahy naterakoy toke.
22 The other woman said, “No! But the living one is my son, and the dead one is your son.” The first one said, “No! But the dead one is your son, and the living one is my son.” They argued like this before the king.
Le hoe ka i rakemba raikey: Aiy! i veloñey ro anako, vaho simba i azoy; Fa hoe ka ty asa’ itiañe: Tsie fa toe ana’o i nisimbay, vaho veloñe i anadahiko. Izay ty enta’ iareo añ’ atrefa’ i mpanjakay.
23 Then the king said, “One says, ‘This is my son who lives, and your son is the dead one;’ and the other says, ‘No! But your son is the dead one, and my son is the living one.’”
Le hoe i mpanjakay: Hoe ty asa’ ty raike: Anadahiko ty veloñe toy, naho mate i ana-dahi’oy; hoe ka i raikey: Aiy! fa i ana’oy ty mate vaho veloñe i anadahikoy.
24 The king said, “Get me a sword.” So they brought a sword before the king.
Le hoe i mpanjakay: Angalao fibara, le nindesa’ iareo fibara i mpanjakay.
25 The king said, “Divide the living child in two, and give half to the one, and half to the other.”
Le hoe i mpanjakay: Tampaho roe i ajaja veloñey, le atoloro amy raikey ty vaki’e naho amy ila’ey ty vaki’e.
26 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 him!” But the other said, “He shall be neither mine nor yours. Divide him.”
fe nitoreo amy mpanjakay i rakemba rene’ i ajaja veloñeiy, ie niferenaiñan-tro’e i ana-dahi’ey, ami’ty hoe: O talèko, atoloro aze i ajaja veloñey, ehe tsy vonoeñe, Fa hoe ka i raikey, Tsy ho ahy tsy ho azo; salàho!
27 Then the king answered, “Give the first woman the living child, and definitely do not kill him. She is his mother.”
Aa le hoe ty navale’ i mpanjakay: Atoloro aze i ajaja veloñey le ko vonoeñe! ie ty rene’e.
28 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.
Jinanji’ Israele iaby i zaka tinaro’ i mpanjakaiy; vaho nañeveñe amy mpanjakay, amy te nioni’ iareo te ama’e ty hihin’ Añahare hahahenefa’e zaka.
