1 Kings 3
1 Therfor the rewme was confermyd in to the hondis of Salomon; and bi affynyte, `ether aliaunce, he was ioyned to Pharao, kyng of Egipt; for he took the douyter of Farao, and brouyte in to the citee of Dauid, til he `fillide bildynge his hows, and the hows of the Lord, and the wal of Jerusalem bi cumpas.
Salomon se sprijatelji s faraonom, kraljem egipatskim: oženi se kćerju faraonovom i uvede je u Davidov grad dokle ne dovrši gradnju svoga dvora, Hrama Jahvina i zidova oko Jeruzalema.
2 Netheles the puple offride in hiye places; for the temple was not bildid to the name of the Lord til in to that dai.
Narod je pak prinosio žrtve na uzvišicama, jer još nije bio sagrađen do toga vremena dom imenu Jahvinu.
3 Forsothe Salomon louyde the Lord, and yede in the comaundementis of Dauid, his fadir, out takun that Salomon offride in hiye placis, and brente encense `in hiye places.
A Salomon je ljubio Jahvu: ravnao se prema naredbama svoga oca Davida, samo je prinosio klanice i kađenice na uzvišicama.
4 Therfor Salomon yede in to Gabaon, to offre there; for thilke was the moost hiy place. Salomon offride on that auter in Gabaon a thousynde offryngis in to brent sacrifice.
Kralj ode u Gibeon da prinese žrtvu, jer ondje bijaše najveća uzvišica. Salomon prinese tisuću paljenica na tom žrtveniku.
5 Sotheli the Lord apperide to Salomon bi sleep in the nyyt, and seide, Axe thou `that, that thou wolt, that Y yyue to thee.
U Gibeonu se Jahve javi Salomonu noću u snu. Bog reče: “Traži što da ti dadem.”
6 And Salomon seide, Thou hast do greet merci with thi seruaunt Dauid, my fadir, as he yede in thi siyt, in treuthe, and riytfulnesse, and riytful herte with thee; thou hast kepte to hym thi greet merci, and hast youun to hym a sone, sittynge on his trone, as it is to dai.
Salomon odgovori: “Veoma si naklon bio svome sluzi Davidu, mome ocu, jer je hodio pred tobom u vjernosti, pravednosti i poštenju srca svoga; i sačuvao si mu tu veliku milost i dao si da jedan od njegovih sinova sjedi na njegovu prijestolju.
7 And now, Lord God, thou hast maad thi seruaunt to regne for Dauid, my fadir; forsothe Y am a litil child, and not knowynge myn outgoynge and entryng.
Sada, o Jahve, Bože moj, ti si učinio kraljem slugu svoga na mjesto moga oca Davida, a ja sam još sasvim mlad te još ne znam vladati.
8 And thi seruaunt is in the myddis of the puple, which thou hast chose, of puple with outen noumbre, that may not be noumbrid and rikened, for multitude.
Tvoj je sluga usred naroda koji si izabrao; naroda brojnog, koji se ne da izbrojiti ni popisati.
9 Therfor thou schalt yyue to thi seruaunt an herte able to be tauyt, `that is, liytned of thee, that he may deme the puple, and iuge bitwixe good and yuel; for who may deme this puple, thi puple, this miche puple?
Podaj svome sluzi pronicavo srce da može suditi tvom narodu, razlikovati dobro od zla, jer tko bi mogao upravljati tvojim narodom koji je tako velik!”
10 Therfor the world pleside bifore the Lord, that Salomon hadde axid sich a thing.
Bijaše milo Jahvi što je Salomon to zamolio.
11 And the Lord seide to Salomon, For thou axidist this word, and axidist not to thee many daies, nether richessis, nether the lyues of thin enemyes, but thou axidist to thee wisdom to deme doom, lo!
Zato mu Jahve reče: “Jer si to tražio, a nisi iskao ni duga života, ni bogatstva, ni smrti svojih neprijatelja, nego pronicavost u prosuđivanju pravice,
12 Y haue do to thee vpe thi wordis, and Y haue youe to thee a wyse herte and vndirstondynge, in so myche that no man bifor thee was lijk thee, nether schal rise aftir thee.
evo ću učiniti po riječima tvojim: dajem ti srce mudro i razumno, kakvo nije imao nitko prije tebe niti će ga imati itko poslije tebe,
13 But also Y haue youe to thee these thingis, whiche thou axidist not, that is, richessis, and glorie, that no man be lijk thee in kyngis in alle tymes aftirward.
ali ti dajem i što nisi tražio: bogatstvo i slavu kakve nema nitko među kraljevima.
14 Forsothe if thou goist in my weies, and kepist my biddyngis and comaundementis, as thi fadir yede, Y schal make thi daies long.
I ako budeš stupao mojim putovima i budeš se držao mojih zakona i zapovijedi, kao što je činio tvoj otac David, umnožit ću tvoje dane.”
15 Therfor Salomon wakide, and vndirstood what the sweuen was. And whanne he hadde come to Jerusalem, he stood bifor the arke of boond of pees of the Lord, and he offride brent sacrifices, and made pesible sacrifices, and a greet feeste to alle hise meynees.
Salomon se probudi, i gle: bijaše to san. On se vrati u Jeruzalem i stade pred Kovčeg saveza Jahvina; prinese paljenice i žrtve pričesnice i priredi gozbu svim slugama svojim.
16 Thanne twei wymmen hooris camen to the kyng, and stoden bifor hym;
Tada dođoše dvije bludnice kralju i stadoše preda nj.
17 of whiche oon seide, My lord, Y biseche, Y and this womman dwelliden in oon hows, and Y childide at hir in a couche.
I reče jedna žena: “Dopusti, gospodaru moj! Ja i ova žena u istoj kući živimo i ja sam rodila kraj nje u kući.
18 Sotheli in the thridde dai aftir that Y childide, also this womman childide; and we weren togidere in the hows, and noon other was with vs in the hows, outakun vs tweyne.
A trećega dana poslije moga porođaja rodi i ova žena. Bile smo zajedno i nikoga stranog s nama; samo nas dvije u kući.
19 Forsothe the sone of this womman was deed in the nyyt, for sche slepte, and oppresside hym;
Jedne noći umrije sin ove žene jer bijaše legla na njega.
20 and sche roos in the fourthe part of the nyyt in silence, and took my sone fro the side of me, thin handmaide slepynge, and settide in hir bosum; forsothe sche puttide in my bosum hir sone, that was deed.
I ustade ona usred noći, uze moga sina o boku mojem, dok je tvoja sluškinja spavala, i stavi ga sebi u naručje, a svoga mrtvog sina stavi kraj mene.
21 And whanne Y hadde ryse eerli, to yyue mylk to my sone, he apperide deed; whom Y bihelde diligentlier bi cleer liyt, and Y perseyuede, that he was not myn, whom Y hadde gendrid.
A kad ujutro ustadoh da podojim svoga sina, gle: on mrtav! I kad sam pažljivije pogledala, razabrah: nije to moj sin koga sam ja rodila!”
22 The tother womman answeride, It is not so as thou seist, but thi sone is deed; forsothe `my sone lyueth. Ayenward sche seide, Thou liest; for my sone lyueth, and thi sone is deed. And bi this maner thei stryueden bifore the kyng.
Tada reče druga žena: “Ne, nije tako. Moj je sin onaj živi, a tvoj je onaj koji je mrtav!” A prva joj odvrati: “Nije istina! Tvoj je sin onaj koji je mrtav, a moj je onaj koji živi!” I tako se prepirahu pred kraljem.
23 Thanne the kyng seide, This womman seith, My sone lyueth, and thi sone is deed; and this womman answerith, Nay, but thi sone is deed; forsothe my sone lyueth.
A kralj onda progovori: “Ova kaže: 'Ovaj živi moj je sin, a onaj mrtvi tvoj'; druga pak kaže: 'Nije, nego je tvoj sin mrtav, a moj je onaj živi.'
24 Therfor the kyng seide, Brynge ye to me a swerd. And whanne thei hadden brouyt a swerd bifor the kyng,
Donesite mi mač!” naredi kralj. I donesoše mač pred kralja,
25 he seide, Departe ye the quyk yong child in to twei partis, and yyue ye the half part to oon, and the half part to the tother.
a on reče: “Rasijecite živo dijete nadvoje i dajte polovinu jednoj, a polovinu drugoj.”
26 Forsothe the womman, whos sone was quik, seide to the kyng; for her entrailis weren mouyd on hir sone; Lord, Y biseche, yyue ye to hir the quik child, and nyle ye sle hym. Ayenward sche seide, Be he nethir to me, nether to thee, but be he departid.
Tada ženu, majku živog djeteta, zabolje srce za sinom i povika ona kralju: “Ah, gospodaru! Neka se njoj dade dijete, samo ga nemojte ubijati!” A ona druga govoraše: “Neka ne bude ni meni ni tebi: rasijecite ga!”
27 The kyng answeride, and seide, Yyue ye to this womman the yong child quyk, and be he not slayn; forsothe this is `his modir.
Onda progovori kralj i reče: “Dajte dijete prvoj, nipošto ga ne ubijajte! Ona mu je majka.”
28 Therfor al Israel herde the doom, which the kyng hadde demyd; and thei dredden the kyng, and sien, that the wisdom of God was in hym, to make doom.
Sav je Izrael čuo presudu koju je izrekao kralj i poštovali su kralja, jer su vidjeli da je u njemu božanska mudrost u izricanju pravde.
