1 Kings 3
1 And Solomon joineth in marriage with Pharaoh king of Egypt, and taketh the daughter of Pharaoh, and bringeth her in unto the city of David, till he completeth to build his own house, and the house of Jehovah, and the wall of Jerusalem round about.
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 are sacrificing in high places, for there hath not been built a house for the name of Jehovah till 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 And Solomon loveth Jehovah, to walk in the statutes of David his father — only, in high places he is sacrificing and making perfume —
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 and the king goeth to Gibeon, to sacrifice there, for it [is] the great high place; a thousand burnt-offerings cause to ascend doth Solomon 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 hath Jehovah appeared unto Solomon, in a dream of the night, and God saith, 'Ask — what do I give to thee?'
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 And Solomon saith, 'Thou hast done with Thy servant David my father great kindness, as he walked before Thee in truth and in righteousness, and in uprightness of heart with Thee, and Thou dost keep for him this great kindness, and dost give to him a son sitting on his throne, as [at] 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 And now, O Jehovah my God, Thou hast caused thy servant to reign instead of David my father; and I [am] a little child, I do not know to go out and to 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 and Thy servant [is] in the midst of thy people, whom Thou hast chosen, a people numerous, that is not 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 and Thou hast given to Thy servant an understanding heart, to judge Thy people, to discern between good and evil; for who is able to judge this Thy 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 And the thing is good in the eyes of the Lord, that Solomon hath 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 and God saith unto him, 'Because that thou hast asked this thing, and hast not asked for thee many days, nor asked for thee riches, nor asked the life of thine enemies, and hast asked for thee discernment to understand judgment,
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 lo, I have done according to thy words; lo, I have given to thee a heart, wise and understanding, that like thee there hath not been before thee, and after thee there doth not arise like thee;
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 and also, that which thou hast not asked I have given to thee, both riches and honour, that there hath not been like thee a man among the kings all thy 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 and if thou dost walk in My ways to keep My statutes, and My commands, as David thy father walked, then I have prolonged thy 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 And Solomon awaketh, and lo, a dream; and he cometh in to Jerusalem, and standeth before the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, and causeth to ascend burnt-offerings, and maketh peace-offerings. And he maketh a banquet 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 come in do two women, harlots, unto the king, and stand 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 and the one woman saith, 'O, my lord, I and this woman are dwelling in one house, and I bring forth 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 and it cometh to pass on the third day of my bringing forth, that this woman also bringeth forth, and we [are] together, there is no stranger with us in the house, save we 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 And the son of this woman dieth at night, because she hath lain upon 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 and she riseth in the middle of the night, and taketh my son from beside me — and thy handmaid is asleep — and layeth it in her bosom, and her dead son she hath laid 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 and I rise in the morning to suckle my son, and lo, dead; and I consider concerning it in the morning, and lo, it was not my son whom I did bear.'
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 And the other woman saith, 'Nay, but my son [is] the living, and thy son the dead;' and this [one] saith, 'Nay, but thy son [is] the dead, and my son the living.' And they speak 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 And the king saith, 'This [one] saith, This [is] my son, the living, and thy son [is] the dead; and that [one] saith, Nay, but thy son [is] the dead, and my son the living.'
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 And the king saith, 'Take for me a sword;' and they bring the 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 and the king saith, 'Cut the living child into two, and give the half to the one, and the 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 And the woman whose son [is] the living one saith unto the king (for her bowels yearned over her son), yea, she saith, 'O, my lord, give to her the living child, and put it not at all to death;' and this [one] saith, 'Let it be neither mine or thine — cut [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 And the king answereth and saith, 'Give ye to her the living child, and put it not at all to death; 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 And all Israel hear of the judgment that the king hath judged, and fear because of the king, for they have seen that the wisdom of God [is] in his heart, to do judgment.
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
