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.
Solomon el kupasryang nu sin tokosra Egypt ke el payukyak nu sin acn se natul. El use mutan sac nu in Siti sel David elan muta we nwe ke el aksafyela musa lal ke lohm sin tokosra, ac Tempul, ac pot rauneak acn Jerusalem.
2 Nevertheless the people burnt incense on the high places, because a house had not yet been built to the Lord.
Soenna oasr tempul musala nu sin LEUM GOD, ke ma inge mwet uh srakna orek kisa fin loang pus.
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.
Solomon el lungse LEUM GOD, ac el fahsrna ke mwe luti lal David, papa tumal. Ma sefanna, el oayapa uniya kosro ac orek kisa ke loang pus.
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.
Sie pacl ah, el som nu Gibeon in orek kisa we, ke sripen loang se we ah arulana pwengpeng. Arulana pus mwe kisa firir el oru in acn sac meet.
5 And the Lord appeared to Solomon in a dream by night, and the Lord said to Solomon, Ask some petition for yourself.
In fong sac LEUM GOD El sikyak nu sel in sie mweme ac siyuk sel, “Mea kom lungse ngan sot nu sum?”
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.
Solomon el topuk, “Pacl nukewa kom akkalemye lungse lom nu sin mwet kulansap lom, David, papa tumuk, ac el tuh wo ac inse pwaye ac suwohs nu sum. Ac kom srakna akkalemye lungse lulap ac kawil lom nu sel ke kom sang sie wen su aolul in leum misenge.
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.
O LEUM GOD luk, kom lela ngan aolla papa tumuk in tokosra, nga finne srakna fusr ac tia etu in kol.
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.
Nga inge, inmasrlon mwet su kom sulela tuh in mwet lom, sie mutunfacl lulap su tia ku in oaoala.
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?
Ke ma inge, ase nu sik lalmwetmet, tuh nga fah ku in kol mwet lom ke suwohs, ac in etu inmasrlon ma wo ac ma koluk. Fin tia ouinge, nga ac leumi mwet puspis lom inge fuka?”
10 And it was pleasing before the Lord, that Solomon asked this thing.
LEUM GOD El insewowo lah Solomon el siyuk ke ma se inge,
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;
na El fahk nu sel, “Mweyen kom siyuk ke lalmwetmet in leumi mwet uh ke suwohs, ac tia siyuk ke moul loes nu sum sifacna, ku ke mwe kasrup, ku ke mwet lokoalok lom in misa,
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.
nga ac fah sot ma kom siyuk kac. Nga ac sot lalmwetmet ac etauk yohk liki mwet nukewa meet liki kom, oayapa elos su ac fah tuku tukum.
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.
Nga fac oayapa sot ma kom tia siyuk kac: in moul lom nufon kom ac kasrup ac fulat, yohk liki tokosra nukewa saya.
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.
Ac kom fin akos ac liyaung ma sap ac oakwuk luk nukewa, in oana David papa tomom, nga ac fah akloesye moul lom.”
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.
Solomon el ngutalik ac akilen lah LEUM GOD El kaskas nu sel in mweme sac, na el som nu Jerusalem ac tu mutun Tuptup in Wuleang lun LEUM GOD ac orek kisa firir ac mwe kisa in akinsewowo nu sin LEUM GOD. Toko el orala kufwa se nu sin mwet kacto lal nukewa.
16 Then there appeared two harlots before the king, and they stood before him.
Sie len ah, mutan kosro luo tuku ac utyak nu ye mutal Tokosra Solomon.
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.
Sie seltal fahk, “Leum fulat, nga ac mutan se inge muta in lohm sefanna, ac nga oswela tulik mukul se ke mutan se inge el muta yuruk.
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.
Len luo tukun nga oswela wen se nutik ah, el oswela pac tulik mukul se. Kut mwet luo na pa muta in lohm sac, ac wangin mwet saya.
19 And this woman's child died in the night; because she overlaid it.
Na sie fong ah el motul folosuwosla toanya tulik natul ah, na tulik sac misa.
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.
El tukakek ke infulwen fong, ac use tulik misa natul ah nu yuruk, ac el usla tulik nutik ah nu yorol ke nga srakna motul.
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.
In lotu tok ah nga ngutalik ac oru ngan katiti tulik se nutik ah, tuh na el misa. Ac ke nga lohang nu kacl, nga akilen tuh na tia ma nutik.”
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 mutan se ngia fahk, “Mo! Tulik se ma moul uh ma nutik, ac ma se ma misa ah ma nutum!” Mutan se meet ah topuk, “Mo! Tulik se ma misa ah ma nutum, ac ma se ma moul uh ma nutik!” Ouinge eltal akukuinla ye mutal tokosra.
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.
Na Tokosra Solomon el fahk, “Komtal kewa fahk mu ma natul pa tulik se ma moul uh, ac ma se ma misa ah ma nutin mutan se ngia.”
24 And the king said, Fetch a sword. And they brought a sword before the king.
Tokosra el sap in utuku sie cutlass, na ke utuku
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.
el fahk, “Fulungya tulik se ma moul an in ip luo, ac sang la nu sin sie, ac la nu sin sie.”
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].
Mutan se ma natu tulik se ma moul ah, ke yohk pakomuta ac lungse lal nu sin tulik sac, el fahk nu sin tokosra, “Leum fulat, nunak munas nimet unilya! Eisalang nu sel!” A mutan se ngia fahk, “Nimet eisalu nu sesr kewa. Fulungilya in ip luo.”
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.
Na Solomon el fahk, “Nimet uniya tulik sacn! Sang nu sin mutan se meet an. El pa nina na pwaye kial an.”
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.
Ke pacl se mwet Israel lohng ke nununku se lal Solomon inge, elos nukewa arulana akfulatyal, mweyen elos etu lah LEUM GOD El sang lalmwetmet nu sel elan oru nununku fal ac suwohs.
