< 1 Kings 3 >

1 And Solomon allied himself by marriage with Pharaoh king of Egypt, and took Pharaoh's daughter, and brought her into the city of David, until he had ended building his own house, and the house of Jehovah, 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 Only, the people sacrificed on the high places; for there was no house built to the name of Jehovah, until those days.
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 Jehovah, walking in the statutes of David his father; only, he sacrificed and burned 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 the king went to Gibeon to sacrifice there; for that was the great high place: a thousand burnt-offerings did Solomon offer up upon that altar.
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 In Gibeon Jehovah appeared to Solomon in a dream by night; and God said, Ask what I shall give thee.
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, Thou hast shewn unto thy servant David my father great loving-kindness, according as he walked before thee in truth, and in righteousness, and in uprightness of heart with thee; and thou hast kept for him this great loving-kindness, that thou hast given him a son who sits 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, Jehovah my God, thou hast made thy servant king instead of David my father; and I am but a little child: I know not to go out and to come 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 And thy servant is in the midst of thy people which thou hast chosen, a great people, that cannot be numbered nor counted for multitude.
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 Give therefore to thy servant an understanding heart, to judge thy people, to discern between good and bad; for who is able to judge this thy numerous 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 the word pleased the Lord, that Solomon had asked this thing.
Pono iho la ka olelo imua o ka Haku, o ko Solomona noi ana i keia mea.
11 And God said to him, Because thou hast asked this thing, and hast not asked for thyself long life, neither hast asked riches for thyself, nor hast asked the life of thine enemies, but hast asked for thyself discernment to understand judgment;
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 thy word: behold, I have given thee a wise and an understanding heart, so that there hath been none like unto thee before thee, neither after thee shall any arise like unto thee.
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 also given thee that which thou hast not asked, both riches and glory; so that there shall not be any among the kings like unto thee all thy days.
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 thou wilt walk in my ways, to keep my statutes and my commandments, as thy father David did walk, then I will prolong thy 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 came to Jerusalem, and stood before the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, and offered up burnt-offerings, and offered peace-offerings, and made a feast to 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 came two women, harlots, to the king, and 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 first woman said, Ah, my lord! I and this woman abode in one house; and I was delivered of a child with her 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 the third day after I was delivered, that this woman was delivered also; and we were together; no stranger was with us in the house, only we two were 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 had lain upon 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 at midnight, and took my son from beside me, while thy handmaid slept, and laid it 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 when I rose in the morning to give my child suck, behold, it was dead; and I considered it 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, for the living is my son, and the dead is thy son. And this one said, No, but the dead is thy son, and the living is my son. Thus 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 Then said the king, The one says, This that is living is my son, and thy son is the dead; and the other says, No, for thy son is the dead, and my son is the living.
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, Bring me 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 living child in two, and give half to the one, and half 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 Then spoke the woman whose was the living child to the king, for her bowels yearned over her son, and she said, Ah, my lord! give her the living child, and in no wise put it to death. But the other said, Let it be neither mine nor thine; 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 And the king answered and said, Give this one the living child, and in no wise put it to death: 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 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.
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.
