I Na Lii 3
1 HOOHUI ae la o Solomona me Parao ke alii o Aigupita, a lawe ae la oia i ke kaikamahine a Parao, a lawe mai ia ia i ke kulanakauhale o Davida, a paa ia ia kona hale iho, a me ka hale o Iehova, a me ka pa o Ierusalema a puni.
And Solomon made affinity with Pharaoh king of Egypt, 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 on every side.
2 Mohai aku la nae na kanaka ma na wahi kiekie, no ka mea, aole i kukuluia ka hale no ka inoa o Iehova a hiki ia mau la.
Only the people sacrificed in high places, because there was no house built to the name of the LORD, until those days.
3 Ua aloha aku no hoi o Solomona ia Iehova, e hele ana ma na kauoha a Davida kona makuakane, mohai aku la nae oia a kuni aku la hoi i ka mea ala ma na wahi kiekie.
And Solomon loved the LORD, walking in the statutes of David his father: only he sacrificed and burnt incense in high places.
4 Hele aku la ke alii i Gibeona e kaumaha aku malaila, no ka mea, he wahi kiekie nui no hoi ia; hookahi tausani mohaikuni ka Solomona i mohai ai ma kela kuahu.
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 A ma Gibeona i ikeia'ku ai o Iehova e Solomona, ma ka moe uhane i ka po, a olelo mai la ke Akua, E noi mai oe i ka'u mea e haawi aku ai ia oe.
In Gibeon the LORD appeared to Solomon in a dream by night: and God said, Ask what I shall give thee.
6 I aku la o Solomona, Nui mai la kou lokomaikai i kau kauwa ia Davida ko'u makuakane, e like me kona hele ana imua ou ma ka oiaio, a me ka pololei, a me ke kupono o ka naau ia oe; a ua malama hoi oe i keia lokomaikai nui nona, i kou haawi ana mai i keiki nana e noho maluna o kona nohoalii, me neia i keia la.
And Solomon said, Thou hast shown to thy servant David my father great mercy, 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 Ano hoi e Iehova ko'u Akua, ua hoolilo mai oe i kau kauwa nei i alii ma kahi o Davida ko'u makuakane: he keiki uuku wale no au: aole ike au i ka hele aku, aole hoi i ka hoi mai.
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 A iwaeua konu kau kauwa nei o kou poe kanaka, au i koho mai ai, he lahuikanaka nui aole hiki ke helu, aole e pau i ka heluia no ka lehulehu loa.
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 Nolaila, e haawi mai oe i naauao i kau kauwa nei e hoomalu i kou poe kanaka, i hiki ia'u ke hookaawale mawaena o ka pono a me ka hewa; no ka mea, owai la ka mea e hiki ia ia ke hooponopono i kou lahuikanaka he nui loa me neia.
Give therefore to thy servant an understanding heart to judge thy people, that I may discern between good and bad: for who is able to judge this thy so great a people?
10 Pono iho la ka olelo imua o ka Haku, o ko Solomona noi ana i keia mea.
And the speech pleased the LORD, that Solomon had asked this thing.
11 Olelo mai la ke Akua ia ia, No kou noi ana mai i keia mea, aole i noi mai i na la he nui nou, aole hoi i noi mai i waiwai nui nou, aole hoi i noi mai e make kou poe enemi; aka, ua noi mai oe i naauao nou i ike i ka hooponopono;
And God said to 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 thy enemies: but hast asked for thyself understanding to discern judgment;
12 Eia hoi, ua hana no au e like me kau olelo; eia no hoi, ua haawi aku au i ka naau akamai a me ka ike nou, i ole mea i like ai me oe mamua ou, aole hoi mahope aku ou e ku mai ai kekahi e like me oe.
Behold, I have done according to thy words: 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 to thee.
13 A ua haawi hou aku au ia oe i ka mea au i noi ole mai ai, i ka waiwai nui, a me ka hanohano, i ole mea like me oe iwaeua o na lii i kou mau la a pau.
And I have also given thee that which thou hast not asked, both riches, and honor: so that there shall not be any among the kings like to thee all thy days,
14 A ina e hele oe ma ko'u mau aoao, a e malama mai i ko'u mau kanawai, a me ka'u mau kauoha, e like me ka hele ana o Davida kou makuakane, alaila e hooloihi aku au i kou mau la.
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 Ala ae la o Solomona, aia hoi, he moe uhane. A hele mai la ia i Ierusalema, a ku iho la imua o ka pahuberita o ka Haku, a kaumaha aku la i na mohaikuni, a kaumaha aku la i na mohaihoomalu, a hana hoi ia i ka ahaaina na kana mau kauwa a pau.
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 Alaila hele mai la na wahine moe kolohe elua i ke alii, a ku mai la laua imua ona.
Then came there two women, [that were] harlots, to the king, and stood before him.
17 A olelo aku la kekahi wahine, E kuu haku, e noho ana maua me keia wahine ma ka hale hookahi, a hanau keiki au me ia iloko o ka hale.
And the one woman said, O my lord, I and this woman dwell in one house; and I was delivered of a child with her in the house.
18 Eia kekahi, i ke kolu o ka la mahope mai o ko'u hanau ana, hanau mai la keia wahine kekahi; aohe mea e me maua iloko o ka hale, o maua wale no ka iloko o ka hale.
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 us two in the house.
19 Make iho la ke keiki a keia wahine i ka po, no ka mea, ua moe ae oia nei maluna ona.
And this woman's child died in the night; because she overlaid it.
20 A ala ae la ia i ka waena o ka po, a lawe aku la i ka'u keiki mai kuu aoao aku, i ka wa i hiamoe ai kau kauwawahine, a hoomoe iho ia ia ma kona poli, a hoomoe mai la hoi i kana keiki make ma ko'u poli.
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 i kuu ala ana i kakahiaka e hanai i kuu keiki i ka waiu, aia hoi, ua make; aka, i ko'u nana ana ia ia i ke ao, aia hoi, aole ia o ka'u keiki a'u i hanau ai.
And when I rose in the morning to nurse my child, behold, it was dead: but when I had considered it in the morning, behold, it was not my son, which I bore.
22 A olelo ae la kekahi wahine, Aole, aka, na'u no ke keiki ola, a nau ke keiki make; a olelo ae keia, Aole, aka, nau ke keiki make, a na'u no hoi ke keiki ola. Pela no i olelo ai ua mau wahine la imua o ke alii.
And the other woman said, No; 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 I mai la ke alii, ke i mai nei kekahi, Na'u keia keiki ka mea ola, a nau ke keiki make; a ke i mai nei keia, Aole, aka, nau ke keiki make, a na'u no ke keiki ola.
Then said the king, The one saith, This [is] my son that liveth, and thy son [is] the dead; and the other saith, No; but thy son [is] the dead, and my son [is] the living.
24 Olelo mai la hoi ke alii, E lawe mai i ka pahikaua ia'u. A lawe aku la lakou i ka pahikaua ma ke alo o ke alii.
And the king said, Bring me a sword. And they brought a sword before the king.
25 Kauoha mai la ke alii, E mahele i ke keiki ola i elua, a e haawi i kekahi hapalua i kekahi, a i kekahi hapalua i kekahi.
And the king said, Divide the living child in two, and give half to the one, and half to the other.
26 Alaila olelo aku ka wahine nana ke keiki ola i ke alii, no ka mea, ua hu ke aloha o kona naau i kana keiki, i aku la hoi ia, E kuu haku, e haawi i ke keiki ola ia ia nei, aole loa e pepehi ia ia. Aka, olelo mai kela, Aole ia ia'u, aole hoi ia oe, e mahele ae ia ia.
Then spoke the woman whose the living child [was] to the king, for her bowels yearned upon her son, and she said, O my lord, give her the living child, and in no wise slay it. But the other said, Let it be neither mine nor thine, [but] divide [it].
27 Kauoha mai la ke alii, i mai la, E haawi aku i ke keiki ola ia ia la, aole loa e hoomake ia ia; oia kona makuwahine.
Then the king answered and said, Give her the living child, and in no wise slay it: she [is] the mother of it.
28 A lohe ae la ka Iseraela a pau i ka hooponopono ana a ke alii i hana'i, a weliweli lakou imua o ke alii; no ka mea, ua ike lakou, o ke akamai o ke Akua ka iloko ona e hooponopono ai.
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 judgment.
