1 Kings 3
1 And Solomon became the son-in-law of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and took Pharaoh's daughter, and brought her into the City of David, until he had made an end of building his own house, and the house of the LORD, and the wall of Jerusalem all around.
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 high places, because there was no house built for the name of the LORD until those days.
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 Solomon loved the LORD, walking in the statutes of David his father: only he sacrificed and burnt incense in the high 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 The king went to Gibeon to sacrifice there; for that was the great high place. Solomon offered a thousand burnt offerings on 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 Solomon in a dream by night; and God said, "Ask what I shall give you."
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 Solomon said, "You have shown to your servant David my father great loving kindness, according as he walked before you in truth, and in righteousness, and in uprightness of heart with you. You have kept for him this great loving kindness, that you have given him a son to sit on his throne, as it is 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 Now, LORD my God, you have made your servant king instead of David my father. I am but a little child. I do not know how to go out or come 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 Your servant is in the midst of your people which you have chosen, a great people, that can't be numbered nor counted 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 Give your servant therefore an understanding heart to judge your people, that I may discern between good and evil; for who is able to judge this your great 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 The speech pleased the LORD, that Solomon had asked 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 God said to him, "Because you have asked this thing, and have not asked for yourself long life, neither have asked riches for yourself, nor have asked the life of your enemies, but have asked for yourself understanding to discern justice;
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 look, I have done according to your word. Look, I have given you a wise and an understanding heart; so that there has been none like you before you, neither after you shall any arise like you.
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 I have also given you that which you have not asked, both riches and honor, so that there shall not be any among the kings like you, all your days.
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 If you will walk in my ways, to keep my statutes and my commandments, as your father David walked, then I will lengthen your days."
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 Solomon awoke; and look, it was a dream. Then he arose and came to Jerusalem, and stood before the ark of the covenant of the LORD, and offered up burnt offerings, offered peace offerings, and made a feast for all his servants.
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 two women who were prostitutes came to the king, and stood 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 The one woman said, "Oh, my lord, I and this woman dwell in one house. I delivered a child 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 It happened the third day after I delivered, that this woman delivered also. We were together. There was no stranger with us in the house, just us two in the house.
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 This woman's child died in the night, because she lay on it.
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 She arose at midnight, and took my son from beside me, while your handmaid slept, and laid it in her bosom, and laid her dead child in my bosom.
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 When I rose in the morning to nurse my child, look, it was dead; but when I had looked at it in the morning, look, it was not my son, whom I bore."
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 The other woman said, "No; but the living is my son, and the dead is your son." This said, "No; but the dead is your son, and the living is my son." Thus they spoke 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 the king said, "The one says, 'This is my son who lives, and your son is the dead;' and the other says, 'No; but your son is the dead one, and my son is the living one.'"
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 The king said, "Get me a sword." They brought a sword 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 The king said, "Divide the living child in two, and give half to the one, and half 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 the woman whose the living child was spoke to the king, for her heart yearned over her son, and she said, "Oh, my lord, give her the living child, and in no way kill it." But the other said, "It shall be neither mine nor yours. Divide 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, "Give her the living child, and in no way kill it. She is its 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 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.
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
