Pirmā Ķēniņu 3
1 Un Salamans apdraudzējās ar Faraonu, Ēģiptes ķēniņu, un apņēma Faraona meitu un to ieveda Dāvida pilsētā, tiekams viņš pavisam uztaisīja savu namu un Tā Kunga namu un Jeruzālemes mūrus visapkārt.
Later, Solomon formed an alliance with Pharaoh king of Egypt by marrying his daughter. Solomon brought her to the City of David until he had finished building his palace and the house of the LORD, as well as the wall around Jerusalem.
2 Bet tie ļaudis upurēja uz kalniem, jo līdz tam laikam vēl nams nebija uztaisīts Tā Kunga vārdam.
The people, however, were still sacrificing on the high places because a house for the Name of the LORD had not yet been built.
3 Un Salamans mīlēja To Kungu, staigādams sava tēva Dāvida likumos, tomēr viņš upurēja un kvēpināja uz kalniem.
And Solomon loved the LORD and walked in the statutes of his father David, except that he sacrificed and burned incense on the high places.
4 Un ķēniņš nogāja uz Gibeonu, tur upurēt, jo tur bija tas lielais kalns; tūkstoš dedzināmos upurus Salamans upurēja uz šī altāra.
Now the king went to Gibeon to sacrifice there, for it was the great high place. Solomon offered a thousand burnt offerings on the altar there.
5 Gibeonā Tas Kungs parādījās Salamanam nakts sapnī; un Dievs sacīja: lūdz, ko Man tev būs dot.
One night at Gibeon the LORD appeared to Solomon in a dream, and God said, “Ask, and I will give it to you!”
6 Tad Salamans sacīja: Tu Savam kalpam, manam tēvam Dāvidam, esi parādījis lielu žēlastību, tā kā viņš Tavā priekšā ir staigājis patiesībā un taisnībā un sirds skaidrībā ar Tevi, un Tu viņam šo lielo žēlastību esi turējis un viņam dēlu devis, kas sēž uz viņa goda krēsla, tā kā tas šodien ir.
Solomon replied, “You have shown much loving devotion to Your servant, my father David, because he walked before You in faithfulness, righteousness, and uprightness of heart. And You have maintained this loving devotion by giving him a son to sit on his throne this very day.
7 Un nu Kungs, mans Dievs, Tu Savu kalpu esi cēlis par ķēniņu mana tēva Dāvida vietā. Un es vēl esmu jauns un nezinu ne iziešanu, ne ieiešanu.
And now, O LORD my God, You have made Your servant king in my father David’s place. But I am only a little child, not knowing how to go out or come in.
8 Un Tavs kalps ir likts Tavas tautas vidū, ko Tu esi izredzējis, kas ir liela tauta, ko nevar ne skaitīt ne pārskatīt aiz lielā pulka.
Your servant is here among the people You have chosen, a people too numerous to count or number.
9 Tad dodi nu Savam kalpam paklausīgu sirdi, Tavus ļaudis tiesāt un gudri izšķirt, kas labs un kas ļauns; jo kas prastu tiesāt šo Tavu tik lielu ļaužu pulku?
Therefore give Your servant an understanding heart to judge Your people and to discern between good and evil. For who is able to govern this great people of Yours?”
10 Un šis vārds Tam Kungam labi patika, ka Salamans bija lūdzis šo lietu.
Now it pleased the Lord that Solomon had made this request.
11 Un Dievs uz to sacīja: tāpēc ka tu šo lietu esi lūdzis un sev neesi lūdzis garu mūžu, nedz sev esi lūdzis bagātību, nedz lūdzis savu ienaidnieku dvēseles, bet ka tu sev esi lūdzis saprašanu, tiesas lietas izklausīt,
So God said to him, “Since you have asked for this instead of requesting long life or wealth for yourself or death for your enemies—but you have asked for discernment to administer justice—
12 Redzi, tad Es daru pēc tava vārda. Redzi, Es tev dodu gudru un prātīgu sirdi, ka tāds kā tu priekš tevis nav bijis un pēc tevis vairs necelsies tāds kā tu.
behold, I will do what you have asked. I will give you a wise and discerning heart, so that there has never been nor will ever be another like you.
13 Un arī ko tu neesi lūdzis, Es tev dodu, arī bagātību un godu, ka tāds kā tu neviens nebūs starp ķēniņiem visā tavā mūžā.
Moreover, I will give you what you did not request—both riches and honor—so that during all your days no man in any kingdom will be your equal.
14 Un ja tu staigāsi Manos ceļos, turēdams Manus likumus un Manus baušļus, itin kā tavs tēvs Dāvids ir staigājis, tad Es tev došu arī garu mūžu.
So if you walk in My ways and keep My statutes and commandments, just as your father David did, I will prolong your days.”
15 Un kad Salamans uzmodās, redzi, tad tas bija sapnis. Un viņš nāca uz Jeruzālemi un nostājās priekš Tā Kunga derības šķirsta un upurēja dedzināmos upurus un nesa pateicības upurus un taisīja visiem saviem kalpiem dzīres.
Then Solomon awoke, and indeed it had been a dream. So he returned to Jerusalem, stood before the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings. Then he held a feast for all his servants.
16 To brīdi nāca divas maukas pie ķēniņa un nostājās viņa priekšā.
At that time two prostitutes came to the king and stood before him.
17 Un tā viena sieva sacīja: mans kungs, es un šī sieva dzīvojām vienā namā, un es pie viņas tai namā esmu dzemdējusi.
One woman said, “Please, my lord, this woman and I live in the same house, and I gave birth while she was in the house.
18 Un notikās trešā dienā, kad es biju dzemdējusi, tad šī sieva arīdzan dzemdēja. Un mēs bijām kopā, un neviena sveša cilvēka pie mums nebija namā, bet mēs divas vien bijām namā.
On the third day after I gave birth, this woman also had a baby. We were alone, with no one in the house but the two of us.
19 Un šīs sievas dēls naktī nomiris, tāpēc ka viņa to nogulējusi.
During the night this woman’s son died because she rolled over on him.
20 Un nakts vidū tā ir cēlusies un paņēmusi manu dēlu no maniem sāniem, kamēr tava kalpone gulēja, un to likusi savā klēpī, un savu mirušo dēlu tā atkal ir likusi manā klēpī.
So she got up in the middle of the night and took my son from my side while I was asleep. She laid him in her bosom and put her dead son at my bosom.
21 Kad es nu no rīta cēlos savu dēlu zīdīt, redzi, tad tas bija nomiris? Bet rītā es viņu labi aplūkoju, un redzi, tas nebija mans dēls, ko es biju dzemdējusi.
The next morning, when I got up to nurse my son, I discovered he was dead. But when I examined him, I realized that he was not the son I had borne.”
22 Tad tā otra sieva sacīja: nē, bet tas dzīvais, tas ir mans dēls, un tas mirušais, tas ir tavs dēls. Un šī atkal sacīja: nē, bet tas mirušais ir tavs dēls, un tas dzīvais ir mans dēls. Tā tās runāja ķēniņa priekšā.
“No,” said the other woman, “the living one is my son and the dead one is your son.” But the first woman insisted, “No, the dead one is yours and the living one is mine.” So they argued before the king.
23 Tad ķēniņš sacīja: šī saka: tas dzīvais ir mans dēls un tas mirušais ir tavs dēls. Un tā otra atkal saka: tas mirušais ir tavs dēls un tas dzīvais ir mans dēls.
Then the king replied, “This woman says, ‘My son is alive and yours is dead,’ but that woman says, ‘No, your son is dead and mine is alive.’”
24 Un ķēniņš sacīja: atnesiet man zobenu. Un tie atnesa zobenu pie ķēniņa.
The king continued, “Bring me a sword.” So they brought him a sword,
25 Tad ķēniņš sacīja: pārcērtiet to dzīvo bērnu divējos gabalos un dodiet vienai vienu gabalu un otrai otru.
and the king declared, “Cut the living child in two and give half to one and half to the other.”
26 Bet tā sieva, kam tas dzīvais bērns piederēja, sacīja uz ķēniņu (jo viņas sirds iekarsa par savu bērnu un tā sacīja): mans kungs! Dodat viņai to dzīvo bērnu, tikai kaut to nenokaujat! Bet tā otra sacīja: lai tas nav ne mans, ne tavs, cērtat viņu uz pusēm!
Then the woman whose son was alive spoke to the king because she yearned with compassion for her son. “Please, my lord,” she said, “give her the living baby. Do not kill him!” But the other woman said, “He will be neither mine nor yours. Cut him in two!”
27 Tad ķēniņš atbildēja un sacīja: dodiet viņai to dzīvo bērnu un nenokaujiet to! Tā ir viņa māte.
Then the king gave his ruling: “Give the living baby to the first woman. By no means should you kill him; she is his mother.”
28 Un viss Israēls dzirdēja šo spriedumu, ko ķēniņš bija spriedis, un tie bijās ķēniņu; jo tie redzēja, ka Dieva gudrība bija iekš viņa, tiesu spriest.
When all Israel heard of the judgment the king had given, they stood in awe of him, for they saw that the wisdom of God was in him to administer justice.
