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.
And so the kingdom was confirmed in the hand of Solomon, and he was joined with Pharaoh, the king of Egypt, by affinity. For he took his daughter, and he led her into the city of David, until he completed building his own house, and the house of the Lord, and the wall of Jerusalem all around.
2 Bet tie ļaudis upurēja uz kalniem, jo līdz tam laikam vēl nams nebija uztaisīts Tā Kunga vārdam.
But still the people immolated in the high places. For no temple had been built to the name of the Lord, even to that day.
3 Un Salamans mīlēja To Kungu, staigādams sava tēva Dāvida likumos, tomēr viņš upurēja un kvēpināja uz kalniem.
Now Solomon loved the Lord, walking in the precepts of David, his father, except that he immolated in the high places, and he burned incense.
4 Un ķēniņš nogāja uz Gibeonu, tur upurēt, jo tur bija tas lielais kalns; tūkstoš dedzināmos upurus Salamans upurēja uz šī altāra.
And so, he went away to Gibeon, so that he might immolate there; for that was the greatest high place. Solomon offered upon that altar, at Gibeon, one thousand victims as holocausts.
5 Gibeonā Tas Kungs parādījās Salamanam nakts sapnī; un Dievs sacīja: lūdz, ko Man tev būs dot.
Then the Lord appeared to Solomon, through a dream in the night, saying, “Request whatever you wish, so that I may 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.
And Solomon said: “You have shown great mercy to your servant David, my father, because he walked in your sight in truth and justice, and with an upright heart before you. And you have kept your great mercy for him, and you have given him a son sitting upon his throne, just as it is this 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 God, you have caused your servant to reign in place of David, my father. But I am a small child, and I am ignorant of my entrance and departure.
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.
And your servant is in the midst of the people that you have chosen, an immense people, who are not able to be numbered or counted because of their multitude.
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 to your servant a teachable heart, so that he may be able to judge your people, and to discern between good and evil. For who will be able to judge this people, your people, who are so many?”
10 Un šis vārds Tam Kungam labi patika, ka Salamans bija lūdzis šo lietu.
And the word was pleasing before the Lord, that Solomon had requested this kind of thing.
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,
And the Lord said to Solomon: “Since you have requested this word, and you have not asked for many days or for wealth for yourself, nor for the lives of your enemies, but instead you have requested for yourself wisdom in order to discern judgment:
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 have done for you according to your words, and I have given you a wise and understanding heart, so much so that there has been no one like you before you, nor anyone who will rise up after 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.
But also the things for which you did not ask, I have given to you, namely wealth and glory, so that no one has been like you among the kings in the all days before.
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.
And if you will walk in my ways, and keep my precepts and my commandments, just as your father walked, I will lengthen 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 awakened, and he understood that it was a dream. And when he had arrived in Jerusalem, he stood before the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and he offered holocausts and made victims of peace offerings, and he held a great feast for all his servants.
16 To brīdi nāca divas maukas pie ķēniņa un nostājās viņa priekšā.
Then two women harlots went to the king, and they 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.
And one of them said: “I beg you, my lord, I and this woman were living in one house, and I gave birth, with her in the room.
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.
Then, on the third day after I gave birth, she also gave birth. And we were together, with no other person with us in the house, only the two of us.
19 Un šīs sievas dēls naktī nomiris, tāpēc ka viņa to nogulējusi.
Then this woman’s son died in the night. For while sleeping, she smothered 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.
And rising up in the silent depths of the night, she took my son from my side, while I, your handmaid, was sleeping, and she set him in her bosom. Then she placed her dead son in 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.
And when I had arisen in the morning, so that I might give milk to my son, he appeared to be dead. But gazing upon him more diligently in the light of day, I realized that he was not mine, whom I had born.”
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.
And the other woman responded: “It is not such as you say. Instead, your son is dead, but mine is alive.” To the contrary, she said: “You are lying. For my son lives, and your son is dead.” And in this manner, they were contending 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 said the king: “This one says, ‘My son is alive, and your son is dead.’ And the other responds, ‘No, instead your son is dead, but mine lives.’”
24 Un ķēniņš sacīja: atnesiet man zobenu. Un tie atnesa zobenu pie ķēniņa.
Therefore the king said, “Bring a sword to me.” And when they had brought a sword before the king,
25 Tad ķēniņš sacīja: pārcērtiet to dzīvo bērnu divējos gabalos un dodiet vienai vienu gabalu un otrai otru.
he said, “Divide the living infant in two parts, and give a half part to the one and a half part 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!
But the woman, whose son was alive, said to the king, for her heart was moved concerning her son, “I beg you, my lord, give the living infant to her, and do not kill him.” To the contrary, the other said, “Let it be neither for me, nor for you, instead divide it.”
27 Tad ķēniņš atbildēja un sacīja: dodiet viņai to dzīvo bērnu un nenokaujiet to! Tā ir viņa māte.
The king responded and said: “Give the living infant to this woman, and do not kill it. For 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.
Then all of Israel heard about the judgment that the king had judged, and they feared the king, seeing that the wisdom of God was in him to accomplish judgment.
