Kings III 3
1 And the wisdom of Solomon abounded exceedingly beyond the wisdom of all the ancients, and beyond all the wise men of Egypt: and he took the daughter of Pharao, and brought her into the city of David, until he had finished building his own house, and the house of the Lord first, and the wall of Jerusalem round about.
HOOHUI ae la o Solomona me Parao ke alii o Aigupita, a lawe ae la oia i ke kaikamahine a Parao, a lawe mai ia ia i ke kulanakauhale o Davida, a paa ia ia kona hale iho, a me ka hale o Iehova, a me ka pa o Ierusalema a puni.
2 Nevertheless the people burnt incense on the high places, because a house had not yet been built to the Lord.
Mohai aku la nae na kanaka ma na wahi kiekie, no ka mea, aole i kukuluia ka hale no ka inoa o Iehova a hiki ia mau la.
3 And Solomon loved the Lord, [so as] to walk in the ordinances of David his father; only he sacrificed and burnt incense on the high places.
Ua aloha aku no hoi o Solomona ia Iehova, e hele ana ma na kauoha a Davida kona makuakane, mohai aku la nae oia a kuni aku la hoi i ka mea ala ma na wahi kiekie.
4 And he arose and went to Gabaon to sacrifice there, for that [was] the highest place, and great: Solomon offered a whole burnt offering of a thousand [victims] on the altar in Gabaon.
Hele aku la ke alii i Gibeona e kaumaha aku malaila, no ka mea, he wahi kiekie nui no hoi ia; hookahi tausani mohaikuni ka Solomona i mohai ai ma kela kuahu.
5 And the Lord appeared to Solomon in a dream by night, and the Lord said to Solomon, Ask some petition for yourself.
A ma Gibeona i ikeia'ku ai o Iehova e Solomona, ma ka moe uhane i ka po, a olelo mai la ke Akua, E noi mai oe i ka'u mea e haawi aku ai ia oe.
6 And Solomon said, You have dealt very mercifully with your servant David my father according as he walked before you in truth, and in righteousness, and in uprightness of heart with you, and you have kept for him this great mercy, to set his son upon his throne, as [it is] this day.
I aku la o Solomona, Nui mai la kou lokomaikai i kau kauwa ia Davida ko'u makuakane, e like me kona hele ana imua ou ma ka oiaio, a me ka pololei, a me ke kupono o ka naau ia oe; a ua malama hoi oe i keia lokomaikai nui nona, i kou haawi ana mai i keiki nana e noho maluna o kona nohoalii, me neia i keia la.
7 And now, O Lord my God, you have appointed your servant in the room of David my father; and I am a little child, and know not my going out an my coming in.
Ano hoi e Iehova ko'u Akua, ua hoolilo mai oe i kau kauwa nei i alii ma kahi o Davida ko'u makuakane: he keiki uuku wale no au: aole ike au i ka hele aku, aole hoi i ka hoi mai.
8 But your servant [is] in the midst of your people, whom you have chosen, a great people, which as this day can’t be numbered.
A iwaeua konu kau kauwa nei o kou poe kanaka, au i koho mai ai, he lahuikanaka nui aole hiki ke helu, aole e pau i ka heluia no ka lehulehu loa.
9 You shall give therefore to your servant a heart to hear and to judge your people justly, and to discern between good and evil: for who will be able to judge this your great people?
Nolaila, e haawi mai oe i naauao i kau kauwa nei e hoomalu i kou poe kanaka, i hiki ia'u ke hookaawale mawaena o ka pono a me ka hewa; no ka mea, owai la ka mea e hiki ia ia ke hooponopono i kou lahuikanaka he nui loa me neia.
10 And it was pleasing before the Lord, that Solomon asked this thing.
Pono iho la ka olelo imua o ka Haku, o ko Solomona noi ana i keia mea.
11 And the Lord said to him, Because you have asked this thing of me, and have not asked for yourself long life, and have not asked wealth, nor have asked the lives of your enemies, but have asked for yourself understanding to hear judgement;
Olelo mai la ke Akua ia ia, No kou noi ana mai i keia mea, aole i noi mai i na la he nui nou, aole hoi i noi mai i waiwai nui nou, aole hoi i noi mai e make kou poe enemi; aka, ua noi mai oe i naauao nou i ike i ka hooponopono;
12 behold, I have done according to your word: behold, I have given you an understanding and wise heart: there has not been [any one] like you before you, and after you there shall not arise one like you.
Eia hoi, ua hana no au e like me kau olelo; eia no hoi, ua haawi aku au i ka naau akamai a me ka ike nou, i ole mea i like ai me oe mamua ou, aole hoi mahope aku ou e ku mai ai kekahi e like me oe.
13 And I have given you what you have not asked, wealth and glory, so that there has not been any one like you amongst kings.
A ua haawi hou aku au ia oe i ka mea au i noi ole mai ai, i ka waiwai nui, a me ka hanohano, i ole mea like me oe iwaeua o na lii i kou mau la a pau.
14 And if you will walk in my way, to keep my commandments and my ordinances, as David your father walked, then will I multiply your days.
A ina e hele oe ma ko'u mau aoao, a e malama mai i ko'u mau kanawai, a me ka'u mau kauoha, e like me ka hele ana o Davida kou makuakane, alaila e hooloihi aku au i kou mau la.
15 And Solomon awoke, and, behold, [it was] a dream: and he arose and came to Jerusalem, and stood before the altar that was in front of the ark of the covenant of the Lord in Sion: and he offered whole burnt offerings, and sacrificed peace-offerings, and made a great banquet for himself and all his servants.
Ala ae la o Solomona, aia hoi, he moe uhane. A hele mai la ia i Ierusalema, a ku iho la imua o ka pahuberita o ka Haku, a kaumaha aku la i na mohaikuni, a kaumaha aku la i na mohaihoomalu, a hana hoi ia i ka ahaaina na kana mau kauwa a pau.
16 Then there appeared two harlots before the king, and they stood before him.
Alaila hele mai la na wahine moe kolohe elua i ke alii, a ku mai la laua imua ona.
17 And the one woman said, Hear me, [my] lord; I and this woman lived in one house, and we were delivered in the house.
A olelo aku la kekahi wahine, E kuu haku, e noho ana maua me keia wahine ma ka hale hookahi, a hanau keiki au me ia iloko o ka hale.
18 And it came to pass on the third day after I was delivered, this woman also was delivered: and we [were] together; and there was no one with us besides our two selves in the house.
Eia kekahi, i ke kolu o ka la mahope mai o ko'u hanau ana, hanau mai la keia wahine kekahi; aohe mea e me maua iloko o ka hale, o maua wale no ka iloko o ka hale.
19 And this woman's child died in the night; because she overlaid it.
Make iho la ke keiki a keia wahine i ka po, no ka mea, ua moe ae oia nei maluna ona.
20 and she arose in the middle of the night, and took my son from my arms, and laid him in her bosom, and laid her dead son in my bosom.
A ala ae la ia i ka waena o ka po, a lawe aku la i ka'u keiki mai kuu aoao aku, i ka wa i hiamoe ai kau kauwawahine, a hoomoe iho ia ia ma kona poli, a hoomoe mai la hoi i kana keiki make ma ko'u poli.
21 and I arose in the morning to suckle my son, and he was dead: and, behold, I considered him in the morning, and, behold, it was not my son whom I bore.
A i kuu ala ana i kakahiaka e hanai i kuu keiki i ka waiu, aia hoi, ua make; aka, i ko'u nana ana ia ia i ke ao, aia hoi, aole ia o ka'u keiki a'u i hanau ai.
22 And the other woman said, No, but the living [is] my son, and the dead [is] your son. So they spoke before the king.
A olelo ae la kekahi wahine, Aole, aka, na'u no ke keiki ola, a nau ke keiki make; a olelo ae keia, Aole, aka, nau ke keiki make, a na'u no hoi ke keiki ola. Pela no i olelo ai ua mau wahine la imua o ke alii.
23 and the king said to them, You say, This [is] my son, [even] the living [one], and this woman's son [is] the dead one: and you say, No, but the living [is] my son, and the dead [is] your son.
I mai la ke alii, ke i mai nei kekahi, Na'u keia keiki ka mea ola, a nau ke keiki make; a ke i mai nei keia, Aole, aka, nau ke keiki make, a na'u no ke keiki ola.
24 And the king said, Fetch a sword. And they brought a sword before the king.
Olelo mai la hoi ke alii, E lawe mai i ka pahikaua ia'u. A lawe aku la lakou i ka pahikaua ma ke alo o ke alii.
25 And the king said, Divide the live child, the suckling, in two; and give half of it to one, and half of it to the other.
Kauoha mai la ke alii, E mahele i ke keiki ola i elua, a e haawi i kekahi hapalua i kekahi, a i kekahi hapalua i kekahi.
26 And the woman whose the living child was, answered and said to the king, (for her bowels yearned over her son) and she said, I pray you, [my] lord, give her the child, and in nowise kill it. But the other said, Let it be neither mine nor hers; divide [it].
Alaila olelo aku ka wahine nana ke keiki ola i ke alii, no ka mea, ua hu ke aloha o kona naau i kana keiki, i aku la hoi ia, E kuu haku, e haawi i ke keiki ola ia ia nei, aole loa e pepehi ia ia. Aka, olelo mai kela, Aole ia ia'u, aole hoi ia oe, e mahele ae ia ia.
27 Then the king answered and said, Give the child to her that said, 'Give it to her, and by no means kill it:' she [is] its mother.
Kauoha mai la ke alii, i mai la, E haawi aku i ke keiki ola ia ia la, aole loa e hoomake ia ia; oia kona makuwahine.
28 and all Israel heard this judgement which the king judged, and they feared before the king; because they saw that the wisdom of God [was] in him, to execute judgement.
A lohe ae la ka Iseraela a pau i ka hooponopono ana a ke alii i hana'i, a weliweli lakou imua o ke alii; no ka mea, ua ike lakou, o ke akamai o ke Akua ka iloko ona e hooponopono ai.
