1 Kings 3
1 And Solomon intermarried with Pharaoh the king of Egypt, and took the daughter of Pharaoh, and brought her into the city of David, until he had finished building his own house, and the house of the Lord, and the wall of Jerusalem round about.
Егда же царство утвердися в руце Соломона, сватовство сотвори Соломон с фараоном царем Египетским: и поят дщерь фараоню и введе ю во град Давидов, дондеже сконча здати дом свой и дом Господень и стену Иерусалима окрест.
2 But the people sacrificed still on the high-places; because there was no house built unto the name of the Lord, until those days.
Обаче людие тогда бяху жруще на высоких, яко не бе создан дом Господеви даже до дне онаго.
3 And Solomon loved the Lord, walking in the statutes of David his father: only that he sacrificed and burnt incense on the high-places.
И возлюби Соломон Господа, ходити в заповеданиих Давида отца своего, токмо на холмех жряше и кадяше.
4 And the king went to Gib'on to sacrifice there; for that was the great high-place: one thousand burnt-offerings did Solomon offer upon that altar.
И воста Соломон, и иде в Гаваон пожрети тамо, яко тамо бе высота велия: тысящу всесожжения вознесе на жертвеннице в Гаваоне.
5 In Gib'on the Lord appeared to Solomon in a dream of the night: and God said, Ask what I shall give thee.
И явися Господь Соломону во сне нощию и рече ему: проси что хощеши себе.
6 And Solomon said, Thou hast shown unto thy servant David my father great kindness, just 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 kindness, and thou hast given him a son who sitteth on his throne, as it is this day.
И рече Соломон: Ты сотворил еси с рабом Твоим Давидом отцем моим милость велию, якоже ходи пред Тобою истиною и правдою и правым сердцем с Тобою, и сохранил еси ему милость великую сию, еже дати сыну его седети на престоле его, якоже днесь:
7 And now, O Lord my God, thou hast made thy servant king in the place of David my father: and I am but a young lad; I know not how to go out or come in.
и ныне, Господи Боже мой, Ты дал еси раба Твоего вместо Давида отца моего: и аз есмь отрочищь мал, и не вем исхода моего и входа моего:
8 And thy servant is in the midst of thy people which thou hast chosen, a great people, that cannot he numbered nor counted for multitude.
раб же Твой посреде людий Твоих, ихже избрал еси людий многих, иже не изочтутся от множества:
9 Give therefore thy servant an understanding heart to judge thy people, to discern between good and bad; for who would [otherwise] be able to judge this thy great people?
и даси рабу Твоему сердце смыслено слышати и судити люди Твоя в правде, еже разумевати посреде добра и зла: яко кто может судити людем Твоим тяжким сим?
10 And the speech was pleasing in the eyes of the Lord, that Solomon had asked this thing.
И угодно бысть слово сие пред Господем, яко испроси Соломон глагол сей.
11 And God said unto him, Because thou hast asked this thing, and hast not asked for thyself long life; and hast not asked for thyself riches, nor hast asked the life of thy enemies; but hast asked for thyself discernment to understand [how to give] judgment:
И рече Господь к нему: занеже просил еси от мене глагола сего, и не просил еси от мене дний многих, и не просил еси богатства, ниже просил еси душ враг твоих, но испросил еси себе разума, еже слышати суд:
12 Behold, I have done according to thy word; lo, I have given thee a wise and a discerning heart; so that like unto thee there was none before thee, nor after thee shall any one arise like unto thee.
се, сотворих по глаголу твоему, се, дах ти сердце смыслено и мудро: якоже ты, не бысть муж прежде тебе и по тебе не востанет подобен тебе:
13 And also what thou hast not asked have I given thee, both riches and honor: so that like unto thee there shall not have been any one among the kings all thy days.
и яже не просил еси, дах тебе, и богатство и славу, якоже ты, не бысть муж подобен тебе в царех во вся дни твоя:
14 And if thou wilt walk in my ways, to keep my statutes and my commandments, as thy father David did walk, then will I lengthen thy days.
и аще пойдеши путем Моим сохранити заповеди Моя и повеления Моя, якоже хождаше Давид отец твой, и умножу дни твоя.
15 And Solomon awoke, and, behold, it was a dream; and he went to Jerusalem, and stood before the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and offered up burnt-offerings, and prepared peace-offerings, and made a feast to all his servants.
И возбудися Соломон, и се, сновидение. И воста, и иде во Иерусалим, и ста пред лицем жертвенника, пред лицем кивота завета Господня в Сионе, и вознесе всесожжения и сотвори мирная, и сотвори пир велий себе и всем отроком своим.
16 Then came there two women, that were harlots, unto the king, and placed themselves before him.
Тогда явистеся две жене блуднице пред царем и стасте пред ним.
17 And the one woman said, Pardon, my Lord, I and this woman dwell in one house; and I was delivered of a child with her in the house.
И рече жена едина: во мне, господи мой: аз и жена сия жихоме в дому единем и родихоме в дому:
18 And it came to pass on the third day after I was delivered, that also this woman was delivered: and we were together, there was no stranger with us in the house, only we two were in the house.
и бысть по третием дни рождения моего, и роди и жена сия: и бехом купно, и не бе никтоже с нами, кроме обоих нас в дому:
19 And this woman's son died in the night; because she had overlaid him.
и умре сын жены сея в нощи, яко лежа на нем:
20 And she arose in the midst of the night, and took my son from beside me, while thy hand-maid slept, and laid him in her bosom, and her dead son she laid in my bosom.
и воста в полунощи, и взя отроча мое от объятий моих, и успи е на лоне своем, а отроча свое умершее положи на лоне моем:
21 And when I rose in the morning to give my son suck, behold, he was dead; but when I looked at him carefully in the morning, behold, it was not my son, whom I had born.
и востах заутра накормити отроча мое, и обретох и мертво: и се, разсмотрих его рано, и се, не бе сын мой, егоже родих:
22 And the other woman said, It is not so; my son is the living one, and thy son is the dead; and this one said, It is not so; thy son is the dead, and my son is the living: thus they spoke before the king.
и рече другая жена: ни, но се есть сын мой живый, се же есть сын твой умерый. И прястеся пред царем.
23 Then said the king, This one saith, This is my son that liveth, and thy son is dead: and the other saith, It is not so; thy son is the dead, and my son is the living.
И рече има царь: ты глаголеши, яко сей сын мой живый, сын же сея мертвый: и ты глаголеши: ни, но живый есть сын мой, твой же сын умерший.
24 And the king said, Fetch me a sword: and they brought the sword before the king.
И рече царь: принесите ми мечь. И принесоша мечь пред царя.
25 And the king said, Hew the living child in two, and give the one half to one, and the other half to the other.
И рече царь: разсецыте отроча ссущее живое на двое, и дадите половину его сей, и другую половину оней.
26 Then spoke the woman whose son was the living unto the king, for her love had become enkindled for her son, and she said, O pardon, my Lord, give her the living child, and only do not slay it; but the other said, Neither mine nor thine shall it be, hew it asunder.
И отвеща жена, еяже бе сын живый, и рече ко царю, понеже смятеся утроба ея о сыне ея, и рече: во мне, господи мой, дадите ей отроча живое, смертию же не умертвите его. И та рече: да не будет ни мне, ни тебе, но пресецыте е.
27 The king then answered and said, Give her the living child, and do not slay it: she is its mother.
И отвеща царь и рече: дадите детище живо жене рекшей: дадите сей е, смертию же не умертвите его: сия мати его.
28 And when all Israel heard of the judgment which the king had given, they feared the king; for they saw that the wisdom of God was in him, to exercise justice.
И слыша весь Израиль суд сей, имже суди царь, и убояшася от лица царева, разумеша бо, яко разум Божий в нем еже творити оправдания.
