< 1 Kings 3 >
1 And Solomon joins in marriage with Pharaoh king of Egypt, and takes the daughter of Pharaoh, and brings her to the City of David, until he completes to build his own house, and the house of YHWH, and the wall of Jerusalem all around.
Ary Solomona tonga vinanton’ i Farao, mpanjakan’ i Egypta, fa nanambady ny zanakavavin’ i Farao izy ka nitondra azy ho any an-Tanànan’ i Davida, mandra-pahavitany ny tranony sy ny tranon’ i Jehovah ary ny màndan’ i Jerosalema manodidina.
2 Only, the people are sacrificing in high places, for there has not been built a house for the Name of YHWH until those days.
Kanefa ny olona mbola namono zavatra hatao fanatitra teny amin’ ny fitoerana avo ihany, fa tsy mbola nisy trano vita ho an’ ny anaran’ i Jehovah hatramin’ izany andro izany.
3 And Solomon loves YHWH, to walk in the statutes of his father David—only, he is sacrificing and making incense in high places—
Ary Solomona tia an’ i Jehovah ka nizotra araka ny dian’ i Davida rainy; nefa kosa izy mbola namono zavatra hatao fanatitra sy nandoro ditin-kazo manitra teny amin’ ny fitoerana avo ihany.
4 and the king goes to Gibeon, to sacrifice there, for it [is] the great high place; Solomon causes one thousand burnt-offerings to ascend on that altar.
Ary ny mpanjaka nankany Gibeona hamono zavatra hatao fanatitra any, fa izany ilay fitoerana avo malaza; ka fanatitra dorana arivo no naterin’ i Solomona teo amin’ izany alitara izany.
5 YHWH has appeared to Solomon in Gibeon, in a dream of the night, and God says, “Ask—what do I give to you?”
Tao Gibeona no nisehoan’ i Jehovah tamin’ i Solomona tamin’ ny nofy nony alina; ary hoy Andriamanitra: Angataho izay tianao homeko anao.
6 And Solomon says, “You have done with Your servant, my father David, great kindness, as he walked before You in truth and in righteousness, and in uprightness of heart with You, and You keep this great kindness for him, and give to him a son sitting on his throne, as [at] this day.
Dia hoy Solomona: Hianao efa naneho fahasoavana lehibe tamin’ i Davida raiko mpanomponao, araka ny nandehanany teo anatrehanao tamin’ ny tsi-fivadihana sy ny fahamarinana ary ny fahitsian’ ny fony taminao, ary Hianao efa nitahiry izao fahasoavana lehibe izao ho azy, dia ny nanomezanao azy zanakalahy hipetraka eo amin’ ny seza fiandrianany tahaka ny amin’ izao anio izao.
7 And now, O YHWH my God, You have caused Your servant to reign instead of my father David; and I [am] a little child, I do not know [how] to go out and to come in;
Ary ankehitriny, Jehovah Andriamanitro ô, Hianao efa nampanjaka ahy mpanomponao handimby an’ i Davida raiko; nefa izaho dia mbola zaza ihany, ka tsy fantatro akory izay fivoaka sy fiditra.
8 and Your servant [is] in the midst of your people, whom You have chosen, a people numerous, that is not numbered nor counted for multitude,
Ary izaho mpanomponao koa dia ao amin’ ny olonao izay nofidinao, sady olona betsaka tsy tambo isaina ary tsy hita isa noho ny hamaroany.
9 and You have given an understanding heart to Your servant, to judge Your people, to discern between good and evil; for who is able to judge this great people of Yours?”
Koa omeo ahy mpanomponao saina malady ho entiko mitsara ny olonao hahaizako manavaka ny soa sy ny ratsy; fa iza moa no mahay mitsara izao olonao betsaka izao?
10 And the thing is good in the eyes of the Lord, that Solomon has asked this thing,
Ary sitraky ny Tompo ny nangatahan’ i Solomona izany zavatra izany;
11 and God says to him, “Because that you have asked for this thing, and have not asked for many days for yourself, nor asked for riches for yourself, nor asked for the life of your enemies, and have asked for discernment for yourself to understand judgment,
ka dia hoy Andriamanitra taminy: Satria nangataka izany zavatra izany ianao, fa tsy ny ho ela velona, na harena, na ny ain’ ny fahavalonao, fa fahaizana hitsara no nangatahinao,
12 behold, I have done according to your words; behold, I have given a wise and understanding heart to you, that there has not been [one] like you before you, and after you there does not arise [one] like you;
dia, indro, efa nanao araka ny teninao Aho, ka indro, efa nanome anao saina hendry sady mahiratra, ka tsy nisy tahaka anao ny teo alohanao, ary tsy hisy ho tahaka anao ny ato aorianao.
13 and also, that which you have not asked for I have given to you, both riches and honor, that there has not been a man like you among the kings [for] all your days;
Ary na izay tsy nangatahinao aza dia efa nomeko anao koa, dia harena sy voninahitra, ka tsy hisy mpanjaka tahaka anao amin’ ny andronao rehetra.
14 and if you walk in My ways to keep My statutes, and My commands, as your father David walked, then I have prolonged your days.”
Ary raha handeha amin’ ny lalako ianao ka hitandrina ny lalàko sy ny didiko tahaka ny nandehanan’ i Davida rainao, dia hataoko ho ela velona ianao.
15 And Solomon awakens, and behold, [it was] a dream; and he comes to Jerusalem, and stands before the Ark of the Covenant of YHWH, and causes burnt-offerings to ascend, and makes peace-offerings, and he makes a banquet for all his servants.
Ary dia nahatsiaro Solomona, ka indro fa nofy izany. Ary nony tonga tany Jerosalema izy, dia nitsangana teo anoloan’ ny fiaran’ ny faneken’ i Jehovah ka nanatitra fanatitra odorana sy fanati-pihavanana, ary dia nanao fanasana ho an’ ny mpanompony rehetra izy.
16 Then two women, harlots, come to the king, and they stand before him,
Ary tamin’ izany dia nisy vehivavy janga roa nankao amin’ ny mpanjaka ka nitsangana teo anatrehany.
17 and the first woman says, “O my lord, this woman and I are dwelling in one house, and I bring forth with her, in the house;
Ary hoy ilay vehivavy anankiray: Trarantitra ianao, tompokolahy, izaho sy ity vehivavy ity miray trano; ary teraka tao an-trano aho, sady tao koa izy.
18 and it comes to pass on the third day of my bringing forth, that this woman also brings forth, and we [are] together, there is no stranger with us in the house, except the two of us, in the house.
Ary nony efa velona hateloana aho, dia mba velona koa izavavy ity; ary izahay roa vavy ihany no tao; tsy nisy olon-kafa tao aminay tao an-trano, fa izahay roa vavy ihany.
19 And the son of this woman dies at night, because she has lain on him,
Ary maty tamin’ ny alina ny zanak’ izavavy ity, fa voatsindriny.
20 and she rises in the middle of the night, and takes my son from beside me—and your handmaid is asleep—and lays him in her bosom, and she has laid her dead son in my bosom;
Dia nifoha mamatonalina izy ka naka ny zanako teo amiko tamin’ ilay natory iny aho ankizivavinao, dia nampandriny teo an-tratrany, fa ny azy maty napetrany teo an-tratrako.
21 and I rise in the morning to suckle my son, and behold, [he is] dead; and I consider in the morning concerning it, and behold, it was not my son whom I bore.”
Ary nony nifoha maraina hampinono ny zanako aho, indro fa maty izy; kanjo rehefa nofantariko sy nony maraina, dia indro fa tsy ny zanako naerako.
22 And the other woman says, “No, but my son [is] the living, and your son the dead”; and this [one] says, “No, but your son [is] the dead, and my son the living.” And they speak before the king.
Ary hoy kosa ilay anankiray: Tsia, fa ny velona no zanako, ary ny maty no zanakao. Fa hoy indray ny anankiray: Tsia, fa ny maty no zanakao, ary ny velona no zanako. Izany no teniny teo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka.
23 And the king says, “This [one] says, This [is] my son, the living, and your son [is] the dead; and that [one] says, No, but your son [is] the dead, and my son the living.”
Ary hoy ny mpanjaka: Ny anankiray manao hoe: Ity velona no zanako, ary ny maty no zanakao; ary hoy kosa ny anankiray: Tsia, fa ny maty no zanakao, ary ny velona no zanako.
24 And the king says, “Take a sword for me”; and they bring the sword before the king,
Koa itondray sabatra aho, hoy ny mpanjaka. Ary nentiny ny sabatra ho eo anatrehan’ ny mpanjaka.
25 and the king says, “Cut the living child into two, and give half to one, and half to the other.”
Ary hoy ny mpanjaka: Sasaho ny zaza velona, ka omeo ny anankiray ny antsasany, ary ho an’ ny anankiray kosa ny antsasany.
26 And the woman whose son [is] the living one says to the king (for her bowels yearned over her son), indeed, she says, “O my lord, give the living child to her, and do not put him to death at all”; and this [one] says, “Let him be neither mine or yours—cut [him].”
Fa niteny tamin’ ny mpanjaka ravehivavy, renin’ ny zaza velona satria nandevilevy ny fony noho ny amin’ ny zanany ka nanao hoe: Tompokolahy ô, trarantitra ianao, omeo azy ihany ary ny zaza velona, fa aza dia vonoina re! Fa hoy kosa ny iray: Aoka tsy ho ahy tsy ho anao, fa zarao mihitsy.
27 And the king answers and says, “Give the living child to her [who wants him], and do not put him to death at all; she [is] his mother.”
Dia namaly ny mpanjaka ka nanao hoe: Omeo itsy ny zaza velona, fa aoka tsy hovonoina; fa io mihitsy no reniny.
28 And all [in] Israel hear of the judgment that the king has judged, and fear because of the king, for they have seen that the wisdom of God [is] in his heart to do judgment.
Ary raha ren’ ny Isiraely rehetra izany fitsarana nataon’ ny mpanjaka izany, dia natahotra ny mpanjaka izy, satria hitany fa misy fahendren’ Andriamanitra ao am-pony ho entiny mitsara.
