< 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.
Nake Solomoni akĩgĩa ngwatanĩro na Firaũni, mũthamaki wa bũrũri wa Misiri, na akĩhikia mwarĩ. Akĩmũrehe itũũra inene rĩa Daudi, nginya rĩrĩa aarĩkirie gwaka nyũmba yake ya ũthamaki, na hekarũ ya Jehova, na rũthingo rũrĩa rwathiũrũrũkĩirie Jerusalemu.
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.
Na rĩrĩ, andũ no maarutagĩra magongona kũndũ kũrĩa gũtũũgĩru, tondũ gũtiarĩ hekarũ yaakĩirwo rĩĩtwa rĩa Jehova hĩndĩ ĩyo.
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.
Solomoni nĩonanirie wendo wake kũrĩ Jehova nĩ ũndũ wa gũthiĩ na mĩthiĩre ya kĩrĩra na watho wa ithe Daudi, tiga rĩrĩ, nĩarutagĩra magongona na agacinĩra ũbumba kũndũ kũrĩa gũtũũgĩru.
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.
Mũthamaki agĩthiĩ Gibeoni kũruta magongona, nĩgũkorwo kũu nĩkuo kũndũ kũrĩa gũtũũgĩru gwekĩrĩirwo mũno, na Solomoni akĩrutĩra magongona ngiri ĩmwe ma njino kĩgongona-inĩ kĩu.
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.
Nakuo kũu Gibeoni Jehova akiumĩrĩra Solomoni ũtukũ kĩroto-inĩ, nake Ngai akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Hooya o kĩrĩa gĩothe ũngĩenda ngũhe.”
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.
Nake Solomoni agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Nĩwonirie baba Daudi ndungata yaku ũtugi mũnene, tondũ aarĩ mwĩhokeku harĩ we, na aarĩ mũthingu, na mũrũngĩrĩru ngoro-inĩ. Nĩũthiĩte na mbere kũmuonia ũtugi ũcio mũnene, na nĩũmũheete mũriũ wa gũikarĩra gĩtĩ gĩake kĩa ũnene ũmũthĩ.
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.
“Na rĩrĩ, Wee Jehova Ngai wakwa nĩũtuĩte ndungata yaku mũthamaki handũ ha baba Daudi. No niĩ ndĩ o mwana mũnini na ndirĩ na ũmenyo wa kũruta wĩra wakwa.
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.
Ndungata yaku ĩrĩ haha gatagatĩ ka andũ aya wee wĩthuurĩire, nao nĩ andũ aingĩ matangĩgereka na matangĩtarĩka.
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?
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio he ndungata yaku ngoro ĩrĩ na ũmenyo wa gũthamakĩra andũ aku, na gũkũũrana wega na ũũru. Tondũ-rĩ, nũũ ũngĩhota gũthamakĩra andũ aya aku aingĩ ũũ?”
10 Therfor the world pleside bifore the Lord, that Salomon hadde axid sich a thing.
Jehova nĩakenire nĩ ũndũ wa Solomoni kũmũũria ũndũ ũcio.
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!
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Ngai akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Kuona ũguo nĩguo wahooya, na ndũnahooya ũingĩhĩrio matukũ ma gũtũũra muoyo, kana ũtonga waku wee mwene, o na kana thũ ciaku iniinwo, no wahooya ũmenyo wa kũrũgamĩrĩra kĩhooto-rĩ,
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.
nĩngwĩka o ũguo wahooya. Nĩngũkũhe ngoro ĩ na ũũgĩ na gũkũũrana, nĩguo gũtuĩke atĩ gũtirĩ kwagĩa mũndũ ũngĩ tawe, na gũtirĩ hĩndĩ gũkaagĩa ũngĩ tawe.
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.
O na ningĩ nĩngũkũhe maũndũ marĩa ũtanahooya, na nĩmo ũtonga hamwe na gĩtĩĩo, nĩgeetha matukũ marĩa mothe ũgũtũũra muoyo, gũtikanagĩe mũthamaki ũngĩ ũiganaine nawe.
14 Forsothe if thou goist in my weies, and kepist my biddyngis and comaundementis, as thi fadir yede, Y schal make thi daies long.
Na ũngĩthiiaga na mĩthiĩre yakwa, na wathĩkagĩre kĩrĩra na watho wakwa, ta ũrĩa thoguo Daudi eekire, nĩngakũhe matukũ maingĩ ma gũtũũra muoyo.”
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.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Solomoni agĩũkĩra toro, akĩmenya atĩ kĩu kĩarĩ kĩroto. Agĩcooka Jerusalemu, agĩthiĩ mbere ya ithandũkũ rĩa kĩrĩkanĩro kĩa Jehova, na akĩruta igongona rĩa njino na rĩa ngwatanĩro. Ningĩ akĩrugithĩria andũ othe a nyũmba ya mũthamaki iruga.
16 Thanne twei wymmen hooris camen to the kyng, and stoden bifor hym;
Thuutha ũcio andũ-a-nja eerĩ a maraya magĩũka kũrĩ mũthamaki, makĩrũgama mbere yake.
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.
Ũmwe wao akiuga atĩrĩ, “Mwathi wakwa, mũndũ-wa-nja ũyũ na niĩ tũikaraga nyũmba ĩmwe. Na nĩndĩraciarire mwana arĩ ho.
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.
Mĩthenya ĩtatũ thuutha wa gũciara mwana, mũndũ-wa-nja ũyũ o nake araciara mwana. Tũraarĩ o ithuĩ eerĩ; gũtirarĩ mũndũ ũngĩ thĩinĩ wa nyũmba ĩyo, tiga o ithuĩ ithuerĩ.
19 Forsothe the sone of this womman was deed in the nyyt, for sche slepte, and oppresside hym;
“Ũtukũ-rĩ, mũndũ-wa-nja ũyũ arakomera mwana wake, arakua.
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.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio arookĩra ũtukũ gatagatĩ, areheria mwana wakwa harĩ niĩ, rĩrĩa niĩ ndungata yaku ndĩrarĩ toro. Aramũiga gĩthũri-inĩ gĩake, na araiga mũrũwe gĩthũri-inĩ gĩakwa arĩ mũkuũ.
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.
Rũciinĩ rũrũ rũngĩ, ngĩũkĩra nĩguo nyongithie mwana wakwa, ndĩrona nĩ mũkuũ! No rĩrĩa ndĩramũrorire wega na ũtheri wa rũciinĩ, ndĩrona atĩ ũcio ti mwana ũrĩa ndaciarĩte.”
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.
Mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio ũngĩ akiuga atĩrĩ, “Aca! Ũyũ ũrĩ muoyo nĩwe mwana wakwa; ũyũ mũkuũ nĩwe waku.” No ũcio wa mbere akĩrega biũ, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Aca! Ũyũ mũkuũ nĩwe waku, na ũyũ ũrĩ muoyo nĩwe wakwa.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio magĩkararania mbere ya mũthamaki.
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.
Mũthamaki akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ũyũ aroiga atĩrĩ, ‘Mwana wakwa nĩwe ũrĩ muoyo na waku nĩwe mũkuũ,’ o rĩrĩa ũrĩa ũngĩ aroiga atĩrĩ, ‘Aca! Ũyũ mũkuũ nĩwe waku, na wakwa nĩ ũyũ ũrĩ muoyo.’”
24 Therfor the kyng seide, Brynge ye to me a swerd. And whanne thei hadden brouyt a swerd bifor the kyng,
Ningĩ mũthamaki akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ndeherai rũhiũ rwa njora.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio makĩrehera mũthamaki rũhiũ rwa njora.
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.
Nake agĩathana, akiuga atĩrĩ: “Mwana ũyũ ũrĩ muoyo nĩatinanio maita meerĩ, nuthu ĩheo mũndũ-wa-nja ũmwe, na nuthu ĩyo ĩngĩ ĩheo mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio ũngĩ.”
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.
Mũndũ-wa-nja ũrĩa mwana wake aarĩ muoyo akĩringwo nĩ tha nĩ ũndũ wa mwana wake, akĩĩra mũthamaki atĩrĩ, “Ndagũthaitha mwathi wakwa, mũnengere mwana ũyũ ũrĩ muoyo, tiga kũmũũraga!” No ũcio ũngĩ akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ndegũtuĩka waku kana wakwa. Nĩatinanio maita meerĩ!”
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.
Nake mũthamaki agĩtua ciira atĩrĩ, “Nengerai mũndũ-wa-nja ũyũ wa mbere mwana ũyũ ũrĩ muoyo. Mũtikamũũrage; nĩwe nyina.”
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.
Rĩrĩa andũ othe a Isiraeli maiguire ũrĩa mũthamaki aatua ciira ũcio, magĩĩtigĩra mũthamaki tondũ nĩmoonire aarĩ na ũũgĩ mũingĩ kuuma kũrĩ Ngai wa gũtua ciira na kĩhooto.
