1 Kings 3
1 Salomon then made affinitie with Pharaoh King of Egypt, and tooke Pharaohs daughter, and brought her into the citie of Dauid, vntill hee had made an ende of buylding his owne house, and the house of the Lord, and the wall of Ierusalem round about.
ソロモン、エジプトの王パロと縁を結びパロの女を娶て之を携來り自己の家とヱホバの家とエルサレムの周圍の石垣を建築ことを終るまでダビデの城に置り
2 Only the people sacrificed in the hie places, because there was no house buylt vnto the name of the Lord, vntill those dayes.
當時までヱホバの名のために建たる家なかりければ民は崇邱にて祭を爲り
3 And Salomon loued the Lord, walking in the ordinances of Dauid his father: onely he sacrificed and offred incense in the hie places.
ソロモン、ヱホバを愛し其父ダビデの法憲に歩めり但し彼は崇邱にて祭を爲し香を焚り
4 And the King went to Gibeon to sacrifice there, for that was the chiefe hie place: a thousand burnt offrings did Salomon offer vpon that altar.
爰に王ギベオンに往て其處に祭を爲んとせり其は彼處は大なる崇邱なればなり即ちソロモン一千の燔祭を其壇に献たり
5 In Gibeon the Lord appeared to Salomon in a dreame by night: and God sayd, Aske what I shall giue thee.
ギベオンにてヱホバ夜の夢にソロモンに顯れたまへり神いひたまひけるは我何を汝に與ふべきか汝求めよ
6 And Salomon sayd, Thou hast shewed vnto thy seruant Dauid my father great mercie, when hee walked before thee in trueth, and in righteousnesse, and in vprightnes of heart with thee: and thou hast kept for him this great mercie, and hast giuen him a sonne, to sit on his throne, as appeareth this day.
ソロモンいひけるは汝は汝の僕わが父ダビデが誠實と公義と正心を以て汝と共に汝の前に歩みしに囚て大なる恩惠を彼に示したまへり又汝彼のために此大なる恩惠を存て今日のごとくかれの位に坐する子を彼に賜へり
7 And now, O Lord my God, thou hast made thy seruant King in steade of Dauid my father: and I am but a yong childe, and know not howe to go out and in.
わが神ヱホバ汝は僕をして我父ダビデに代て王とならしめたまへり而るに我は小き子にして出入することを知ず
8 And thy seruant is in the mids of thy people, which thou hast chosen, euen a great people which cannot be told nor nobred for multitude.
且僕は汝の選みたまひし汝の民の中にあり即ち大なる民にて其數衆くして數ふることも書すことも能はざる者なり
9 Giue therefore vnto thy seruant an vnderstanding heart, to iudge thy people, that I may discerne betweene good and bad: for who is able to iudge this thy mightie people?
是故に聽き別る心を僕に與へて汝の民を鞫しめ我をして善惡を辨別ることを得さしめたまへ誰か汝の此夥多き民を鞫くことを得んと
10 And this pleased the Lord well, that Salomon had desired this thing.
ソロモン此事を求めければ其言主の心にかなへり
11 And God sayde vnto him, Because thou hast asked this thing, and hast not asked for thy selfe long life, neyther hast asked riches for thy selfe, nor hast asked the life of thine enemies, but hast asked for thy selfe vnderstanding to heare iudgement,
是において神かれにいひたまひけるは汝此事を求めて己の爲に長壽を求めず又己のために富有をも求めず又己の敵の生命をも求めずして惟訟を聽き別る才智を求めたるに因て
12 Beholde, I haue done according to thy wordes: lo, I haue giuen thee a wise and an vnderstanding heart, so that there hath bene none like thee before thee, neither after thee shall arise the like vnto thee.
視よ我汝の言に循ひて爲り我汝に賢明く聡慧き心を與ふれば汝の先には汝の如き者なく汝の後にも汝の如き者興らざるべし
13 And I haue also giuen thee that, which thou hast not asked, both riches and honour, so that among the Kings there shall be none like vnto thee all thy dayes.
我亦汝の求めざる者即ち富と貴とをも汝に與ふれば汝の生の涯王等の中に汝の如き者あらざるべし
14 And if thou wilt walke in my wayes, to keepe mine ordinances and my commandements, as thy father Dauid did walke, I will prolong thy dayes.
又汝若汝の父ダビデの歩し如く吾道に歩みてわが法憲と命令を守らば我汝の日を長うせんと
15 And when Salomon awoke, behold, it was a dreame, and he came to Ierusalem, and stoode before the Arke of the couenant of the Lord, and offred burnt offrings and made peace offrings, and made a feast to all his seruants.
ソロモン目寤て視るに夢なりき斯てソロモン、エルサレムに至りヱホバの契約の櫃の前に立ち燔祭を献げ酬恩祭を爲して其諸の臣僕に饗宴を爲り
16 Then came two harlots vnto the King, and stoode before him.
爰に娼妓なる二人の婦王の所に來りて其前に立ちしが
17 And the one woman sayd, Oh my lorde, I and this woman dwell in one house, and I was deliuered of a childe with her in the house.
一人の婦いひけるはわが主よ我と此婦は一の家に住む我此婦と偕に家にありて子を生り
18 And the third day after that I was deliuered, this woman was deliuered also: and we were in the house together: no stranger was with vs in the house, saue we twaine.
しかるにわが生し後第三日に此婦もまた生りしかして我儕偕にありき家には他人の我らと偕に居りし者なし家には只我儕二人のみ
19 And this womans sonne died in the night: for she ouerlay him.
然るに此婦其子の上に臥たるによりて夜の中に其子死たれば
20 And she rose at midnight, and tooke my sonne from my side, while thine handmaide slept, and layde him in her bosome, and layde her dead sonne in my bosome.
中夜に起て婢の眠れる間にわが子をわれの側より取りて之を己の懐に臥しめ己の死たる子をわが懐に臥しめたり
21 And when I rose in the morning to giue my sonne sucke, beholde, he was dead: and when I had well considered him in the morning, beholde, it was not my sonne, whom I had borne.
朝に及びて我わが子に乳を飮せんとて興て見るに死ゐたり我朝にいたりて其を熟く視たるに其はわが生るわが子にはあらざりしと
22 Then the other woman sayd, Nay, but my sonne liueth, and thy sonne is dead. Againe she sayde, No, but thy sonne is dead, and mine aliue: thus they spake before the King.
今一人の婦いふ否活るはわが子死るは汝の子なりと此婦いふ否死るは汝の子活るはわが子なりと彼等斯王のまへに論り
23 Then sayde the King, She sayth, This that liueth is my sonne, and the dead is thy sonne: and the other sayth, Nay, but the dead is thy sonne, and the liuing is my sonne.
時に王いひけるは一人は此活るはわが子死るは汝の子なりと言ひ又一人は否死るは汝の子活るはわが子なりといふと
24 Then the King said, Bring me a sworde: and they brought out a sworde before the King.
王乃ち劍を我に持來れといひければ劍を王の前に持來れり
25 And the King sayde, Deuide ye the liuing child in twaine, and giue the one halfe to the one, and the other halfe to the other.
王いひけるは活る子を二に分て其半を此に半を彼に與へよと
26 Then spake the woman, whose the liuing child was, vnto the King, for her compassion was kindled toward her sonne, and she sayde, Oh my lorde, giue her the liuing childe, and slay him not: but the other sayde, Let it be neither mine nor thine, but deuide it.
時に其活子の母なる婦人心其子のために焚がごとくなりて王に言していひけるは請ふわが主よ活る子を彼に與へたまへ必ず殺したまふなかれと然ども他の一人は是を我のにも汝のにもならしめず判たせよと言り
27 Then the King answered, and sayde, Giue her the liuing childe, and slay him not: this is his mother.
王答ていひけるは活子を彼に與へよ必ず殺すなかれ彼は其母なるなりと
28 And all Israel heard the iudgement, which the King had iudged, and they feared the King: for they sawe that the wisedome of God was in him to doe iustice.
イスラエル皆王の審理し所の判決を聞て王を畏れたり其は神の智慧の彼の中にありて審理を爲しむるを見たればなり
