< 1 Kings 3 >

1 Solomon made a marriage alliance with Pharaoh of Egypt. He married Pharaoh's daughter and brought her to live in the City of David until he finished building his palace, the Lord's Temple, and the walls surrounding Jerusalem.
Hagi Solomoni'a Isipi kini ne' Fero mofa'a ara erigeke, hara osuke mago zanarimpa huke manisaku kea huhagerafi'na'e. Hagi ana ara agra avreno Deviti rankumapi Jerusalemi ome ante'neno, noma'ane, Ra Anumzamofo none, Jerusalemi kumamofo vihunena trohu vagare'ne.
2 In those days, however, the people still sacrificed on the high places because a Temple to honor the Lord hadn't yet been built.
Hagi ana knafina Israeli agonaramintega mareri'za ofa ome Ra Anumzamofontega kresramna vu'naze. Na'ankure e'ina knafina Ra Anumzamofo agirera mono nona onki'nazage'za anara hu'naze.
3 Solomon showed he loved the Lord by following the instructions of his father David, except that he sacrificed and burned offerings on the high places.
Hagi Solomoni'a Ra Anumzamofona Deviti'ma hu'neaza huno avesinenteno trakea avaririneanagi, agonarega vuno Anumzamofontega ofa'a ome kresramna vu'ne.
4 The king went to Gibeon to sacrifice there, for it was the leading high place. Solomon presented one thousand burnt offerings on the altar there.
Hagi kini ne'mo'a Gibioni kumate ofa ome Kresramana vuku vu'ne. Na'ankure Gibioni agonaramimpina mareri agatereno agi me'nea kre sramnavu ita me'negeno vu'ne. Hagi e'i ana kre sramnavu itarera Solomoni'a 1tauseni'a bulimakaone sipisipi afuzaga tevefina kre fananehu ofa hu'ne.
5 The Lord appeared to Solomon in a dream at Gibeon. God said to him, “Ask what you want me to give you.”
Hagi Gibioni kumate Ra Anumzamo'a Solomonina ava'nafi efore huno amanage huno asami'ne, Kavesinia zanku nantahigege'na kami'neno.
6 Solomon replied, “You showed your servant David, my father, great trustworthy love because he lived his life before you with faithfulness, doing what was right and committed to principle. You have continued to show this great trustworthy love by giving him a son to sit on his throne to this day.
Higeno Solomoni'a amanage huno asami'ne, Kagri eri'za vaheka'a nenfa Devitina mevava kavesi'zanteti avesinte'nane. Na'ankure agra fatgo avu'ava nehuno tamage huno tumo'areti huno kavariri'ne. Hagi kagra vagaore kavesizanteti ne' mofavrea aminkeno menina agri nona erino kini tra'arera mani'ne.
7 Now, Lord God, you have made me king in place of my father David. But I am like an inexperienced young boy who doesn't know what to do.
Hagi nagra osi mofavregi'na vahe'ma kegavama hu'zana ontahi'noanagi, menina Ra Anumzana nagri Anumzamoka eri'za neka'a kinia nazeri otinke'na nenfa Deviti nona eri'noe.
8 I, your servant, am here in among your chosen people, a great people that are so many they cannot be counted.
Hagi nagri vahere hunkama huhamprinana vahe amu'nompi menina nagra eri'za vahekamo'na mani'noe. Hagi e'i ana vahera rama'a vahekrerfa mani'nage'za, hamprigara osu'ne.
9 So please give me a mind that's receptive so I can rule your people well, understanding the difference between right and wrong, for who can rule this difficult people of yours?”
E'ina hu'negu muse hugantoanki vahe'ma kegavama hu knare antahi'za namige'na vahera kegava hu'ne'na havi zane knare zanena refko hu'na kegava ha'neno. Na'ankure nagra knarera osu'noanki'na ama vahekrerfa kegava osugahue.
10 The Lord considered that what Solomon asked for was good.
Hagi Solomoni'ma knare antahi'zanku'ma antahigegeno'a Ra Anumzamo'a tusi muse nehuno,
11 So God told him, “Because you asked for this, and you didn't ask for a long life, or wealth, or the death of your enemies, but instead you asked for understanding to know what is right,
amanage huno asami'ne, Kagra kafuni'a erizaza huo hunka osuge, fenozankura nantahionkege, naza huge'na ha' vaheni'a zamaha'neno hunka osananki, knare antahi'za naminege'na havi zane knare zanena refko ha'neno hunka hananki'na,
12 I am giving you what you asked for. I am giving you a mind that is wise, with an understanding of what is right, more than anyone else before you or after you.
menina Nagra kema hana kante ante'na knare antahi'zana kamigahue. Hagi havi zane knare'zane refkohu knare antahi'zana ko'ma mani'za e'naza vahe'mo'za e'orinazankna antahi'za kamisugeno, ete henka kagrikna antahintahine vahera forera osutfa hugahie.
13 I am also giving you what you did not ask for, wealth and status—so much so that no king will compare to you for the whole of your life.
Hagi nantahima onke'nana zana fenone, ra agima ami'zanena antegofetu hu'na kaminena, maninkama vanampina mago kini ne'mo'a kagateoregahie.
14 And if you follow my ways by keeping my laws and my commands, as your father David did, I will give you a long life.”
Hagi negafa'ma hu'neaza hunka Nagri navu'nava'ma nevaririnka, trake'ni'ane kasege'ni'anema kegavama hunka avaririsankena, kafuzageka'a eri za'za ha'nena zazate manigahane.
15 Then Solomon woke up and realized he'd had a dream. He went back to Jerusalem, and stood in front of the Ark of the Lord's Agreement and he presented burnt offerings and friendship offerings, and he held a feast for all his officials.
Higeno anante Solomoni'a mase'nefintira antri huno otino keana amne ava'na ke'ne. Hagi anantetira atreno Jerusalemi kumate vuno Ra Anumzamofo huhagerafi huvempage bogisimofo avuga kre fananehu ofane, rimpa fru ofanena ome nehuno, eri'za vahe'anena ra ne'za kreno ne'ne.
16 Later two prostitutes came to the king and stood before him for judgment.
Hagi mago zupa savri atremokea Solomoni avuga eoti'na'e.
17 One of the women spoke up, saying, “If it please Your Majesty: I share a house with this woman. I had a baby while she was living in the house.
Hagi mago a'mo'a otiazamo amanage hu'ne, ranimoka, ama a'ene nagranena mago nompi nemanu'ankita, ama a'mo'a magoka nompi mani'nege'na mofavrea kasente'noe.
18 Three days after the birth of my baby, this woman also had a baby. We were together; there was no one else in the house, just the two of us.
Hagi 3'a zagegna evutegeno ama a'mo'a, mofavrea kasente'ne. Hagi ana nompina tagrake mani'noanki, mago vahera omanitfa hu'ne.
19 During the night this woman's son died because she rolled over on him.
Hianagi agra kenage mase'neno, mase rukrahe hirega mofavre'a rehapatigeno fri'ne.
20 She got up in the middle of the night and took my son from beside me while I was sleeping. She lay him close beside her to cuddle him, and she lay her dead son close beside me.
Ana'ma nehuno'a mase himamrenoama'a agra kenage otiazamo nagri mofavrea eme avreno asumpinka agra aminte ome nenteno, fri'nea mofavre'a avreno nagri nasumpinka aminte eme ante'ne.
21 When I got up in the morning to nurse my son I saw that he was dead. When I looked closely at him in the light I realized it wasn't my son.”
Ana'ma hutege'na nanterama otina mofavreni'ama amima ami'za nehu'na koana, agra ko fri'ne. Hianagi ana mofavrema nanterama masama hige'na oti'na amima aminaku'ma koana, nagrama kasente'noa mofavrea omani'ne.
22 The other woman argued, “No! My son is the one that's alive. Your son is the one that's dead.” The first woman objected, “No! Your son is the one that's dead. My son is the one that's alive.” They went on quarrelling in front of the king.
Hianagi mago a'mo'a ke'amofona anintaka huno amanage huno hu'ne, I'o mani'nea mofavrea nagri mofavregi, fri'nea mofavrea kagri mofavre. Anagema higeno'a, ese'ma nanekema hu'nea a'mo'a amanage hu'ne, I'o fri'nea mofavrea kagriki, mani'nea mofavrea nagri mofavre. Anage huke kini ne'mofo avuga fravazi'na'e.
23 The king intervened, saying, “So this woman says ‘My son is the one that's alive. Your son is the one that's dead,’ while the other woman says, ‘No! Your son is the one that's dead. My son is the one that's alive.’”
Hagi kini ne'mo'a amanage hu'ne, Tanagra huta nagri mofavremo kasefa huno mani'neanki, kagri mofavremo fri'ne, higeno, ete mago'mo'a huno, I'o kagri mofavremo fri'neanki, nagri mofavremo kasefa huno manine huta ha'e.
24 “Bring me a sword,” the king ordered. So they brought him a sword.
Ha knareki bainati kazi erinka eme namio, huno kini ne'mo'a eri'za ne'agura higeno, bainati kazina erino avuga egeno,
25 “Cut the child that's alive in two, and give half to one woman and half to another,” he commanded.
amanage hu'ne, Kasefa huno mani'nea mofavrea amu'nompinti rutanerare hunka mago kaziga magomofo aminka, magokaziga magomofo amio.
26 But the woman whose son was alive had so much love for him as a mother that she cried out to the king, “Please, Your Majesty, give her the boy! Don't kill him!” But the other woman said, “He won't be mine or yours—cut him in two!”
Anagema higeno'a ana mofavremofo nerera fatgo'amo'a tusiza huno avesi nenteankino amanage hu'ne, I'o ranimoka muse hugantoanki ohenka, agri amio huno hu'ne. Hianagi mago a'ma havigema nehia a'mo'a amanage hu'ne, Tamage hananki agri mofavrea omanige nagri mofavrea omanige hanianki, rutnerare huramio huno hu'ne.
27 The king gave his verdict. “Give the child that's alive to the first woman,” he ordered. “On no account kill him, for she is his real mother.”
Hagi anante kini ne'mo'a amanage huno kenona hu'ne, Ese a'mo'ma ahe ofrita antu a' amiho huno'ma hia a'mo ana mofavremofona nerera fatgo mani'neanki ahe ofrita agri amiho.
28 When everyone in Israel heard about the verdict the king had delivered, they had great respect for the king, because they recognized the wisdom God had given him to judge rightly.
Hagi kini ne'mo'ma knare'ma huno kema refko'ma hianke'ma maka Israeli vahe'mo'zama nentahi'za, kini nera koro hunte'naze. Na'ankure Anumzamofo knare antahizama me'negeno knare'ma huno nanekema refkoma hu'neazana zamagra ke'za antahiza hu'naze.
