1 Kraljevima 3
1 A Solomun se oprijatelji s Faraonom carem Misirskim, i oženi se kæerju Faraonovom, i dovede je u grad Davidov dokle ne dovrši svoj dom i dom Gospodnji i zid oko Jerusalima.
And Solomon became allied to Pharaoh king of Egypt by marriage, and took Pharaoh's daughter, and brought her into the city of David, until he had made an end of building his own house, and the house of the LORD, and the wall of Jerusalem round about.
2 Ali narod prinošaše žrtve na visinama; jer još ne bješe sazidan dom imenu Gospodnjemu do tada.
Only the people sacrificed in the high places, because there was no house built for the name of the LORD until those days.
3 A Solomun ljubljaše Gospoda hodeæi po uredbama oca svojega Davida, samo što na visinama prinošaše žrtve i kaðaše.
And Solomon loved the LORD, walking in the statutes of David his father; only he sacrificed and offered in the high places.
4 Zato otide car u Gavaon da ondje prinese žrtvu, jer to bijaše velika visina; i Solomun prinese tisuæu žrtava paljenica na onom oltaru.
And the king went to Gibeon to sacrifice there; for that was the great high place; a thousand burnt-offerings did Solomon offer upon that altar.
5 I javi se Gospod Solomunu u Gavaonu noæu u snu, i reèe Bog: išti što hoæeš da ti dam.
In Gibeon the LORD appeared to Solomon in a dream by night; and God said: 'Ask what I shall give thee.'
6 A Solomun reèe: ti si uèinio veliku milost sluzi svojemu Davidu ocu mojemu, kao što je hodio pred tobom vjerno i pravedno i s pravijem srcem prema tebi; i saèuvao si mu ovu veliku milost, te mu dao sina da sjedi na prijestolu njegovu, kao što se vidi danas.
And Solomon said: 'Thou hast shown unto Thy servant David my father great kindness, according as he walked before Thee in truth, and in righteousness, and in uprightness of heart with Thee; and Thou hast kept for him this great kindness, that Thou hast given him a son to sit on his throne, as it is this day.
7 I tako, Gospode Bože moj, ti si postavio slugu svojega carem na mjesto Davida oca mojega, a ja sam mlad, niti znam polaziti ni dolaziti.
And now, O LORD my God, Thou hast made Thy servant king instead of David my father; and I am but a little child; I know not how to go out or come in.
8 I tvoj je sluga meðu narodom tvojim, koji si izabrao, narodom velikim, koji se ne može izbrojiti ni proraèunati od množine.
And Thy servant is in the midst of Thy people which Thou hast chosen, a great people, that cannot be numbered nor counted for multitude.
9 Daj dakle sluzi svojemu srce razumno da može suditi narodu tvojemu i raspoznavati dobro i zlo. Jer ko može suditi narodu tvojemu tako velikom?
Give Thy servant therefore an understanding heart to judge Thy people, that I may discern between good and evil; for who is able to judge this Thy great people?'
10 I bi milo Gospodu što Solomun to zaiska.
And the speech pleased the LORD, that Solomon had asked this thing.
11 I reèe mu Bog: kad to išteš, a ne išteš duga života niti išteš blaga niti išteš duša neprijatelja svojih nego išteš razuma da umiješ suditi;
And God said unto him: 'Because thou hast asked this thing, and hast not asked for thyself long life; neither hast asked riches for thyself, nor hast asked the life of thine enemies; but hast asked for thyself understanding to discern justice;
12 Evo uèinih po tvojim rijeèima; evo ti dajem srce mudro i razumno da takoga kakav si ti ni prije tebe nije bilo niti æe poslije tebe nastati taki kakav si ti.
behold, I have done according to thy word: lo, I have given thee a wise and an understanding heart; so that there hath been none like thee before thee, neither after thee shall any arise like unto thee.
13 A svrh toga dajem ti i što nijesi iskao, i blago i slavu, da takoga kakav æeš ti biti neæe biti meðu carevima svega vijeka tvojega.
And I have also given thee that which thou hast not asked, both riches and honour — so that there hath not been any among the kings like unto thee — all thy days.
14 I ako uzideš mojim putovima držeæi uredbe moje i zapovijesti moje, kao što je išao David otac tvoj, produljiæu dane tvoje.
And if thou wilt walk in My ways, to keep My statutes and My commandments, as thy father David did walk, then I will lengthen thy days.'
15 Tada se probudi Solomun, i gle, ono bješe san. I doðe u Jerusalim, i stavši pred kovèeg zavjeta Gospodnjega prinese žrtve paljenice i žrtve zahvalne, i poèasti sve sluge svoje.
And Solomon awoke, and, behold, it was a dream; and he came to Jerusalem, and stood before the ark of the covenant of the LORD, and offered up burnt-offerings, and offered peace-offerings, and made a feast to all his servants.
16 Tada doðoše dvije žene kurve k caru, i stadoše pred njim.
Then came there two women, that were harlots, unto the king, and stood before him.
17 I reèe jedna žena: ah, gospodaru; ja i ova žena sjedimo u jednoj kuæi, i porodih se kod nje u istoj kuæi.
And the one woman said: 'Oh, my lord, I and this woman dwell in one house; and I was delivered of a child with her in the house.
18 A treæi dan poslije moga poroðaja porodi se i ova žena, i bijasmo zajedno i ne bijaše niko drugi s nama u kuæi, samo nas dvije bijasmo u kuæi.
And it came to pass the third day after I was delivered, that this woman was delivered also; and we were together; there was no stranger with us in the house, save we two in the house.
19 I umrije sin ove žene noæas, jer ona leže na nj.
And this woman's child died in the night; because she overlay it.
20 Pa ustavši u po noæi uze sina mojega iskraj mene, kad sluškinja tvoja spavaše, i stavi ga sebi u naruèje, a svoga sina mrtvoga stavi meni u naruèje.
And she arose at midnight, and took my son from beside me, while thy handmaid slept, and laid it in her bosom, and laid her dead child in my bosom.
21 A kad ustah ujutru da podojim sina svojega, a to, mrtav; ali kad razgledah ujutru, a to, ne bješe moj sin, kojega ja rodih.
And when I rose in the morning to give my child suck, behold, it was dead; but when I had looked well at it in the morning, behold, it was not my son, whom I did bear.'
22 Tada reèe druga žena: nije tako; nego je moj sin ovaj živi, a tvoj je sin onaj mrtvi. Ali ona reèe: nije tako, nego je tvoj sin onaj mrtvi, a moj je sin ovaj živi. Tako govorahu pred carem.
And the other woman said: 'Nay; but the living is my son, and the dead is thy son.' And this said: 'No; but the dead is thy son, and the living is my son.' Thus they spoke before the king.
23 A car reèe: ova kaže: ovaj je živi moj sin, a tvoj je sin ovaj mrtvi; a ona kaže: nije tako, nego je tvoj sin onaj mrtvi, a moj je sin ovaj živi.
Then said the king: 'The one saith: This is my son that liveth, and thy son is the dead; and the other saith: Nay; but thy son is the dead, and my son is the living.'
24 I reèe car: dajte mi maè. I donesoše maè pred cara.
And the king said: 'Fetch me a sword.' And they brought a sword before the king.
25 Tada reèe car: rasijecite živo dijete na dvoje, i podajte polovinu jednoj i polovinu drugoj.
And the king said: 'Divide the living child in two, and give half to the one, and half to the other.'
26 Tada žena kojoj sin bješe živi reèe caru, jer joj se uskoleba utroba za sinom: ah, gospodaru, podajte njojzi dijete živo, a nemojte ga ubijati. A ona reèe: neka ne bude ni meni ni tebi, rasijecite ga.
Then spoke the woman whose the living child was unto the king, for her heart yearned upon her son, and she said: 'Oh, my lord, give her the living child, and in no wise slay it.' But the other said: 'It shall be neither mine nor thine; divide it.'
27 Tada odgovori car i reèe: podajte onoj živo dijete, nemojte ga ubiti, ona mu je mati.
Then the king answered and said: 'Give her the living child, and in no wise slay it: she is the mother thereof.'
28 I sav Izrailj èu sud koji izreèe car, i pobojaše se cara; jer vidješe da je u njemu mudrost Božija da sudi.
And all Israel heard of the judgment which the king had judged; and they feared the king; for they saw that the wisdom of God was in him, to do justice.
