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.
Solomon became the son-in-law of Pharaoh, king of Egypt, and took Pharaoh's daughter as his wife, keeping her in the town of David, till the house he was building for himself, and the house of the Lord and the wall round Jerusalem, were complete.
2 Bet tie ļaudis upurēja uz kalniem, jo līdz tam laikam vēl nams nebija uztaisīts Tā Kunga vārdam.
But all this time the people were making their offerings in the high places, because no house had been put up to the name of the Lord till those days.
3 Un Salamans mīlēja To Kungu, staigādams sava tēva Dāvida likumos, tomēr viņš upurēja un kvēpināja uz kalniem.
And Solomon, in his love for the Lord, kept the laws of David his father; but he made offerings and let them go up in smoke 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.
And the king went to Gibeon to make an offering there, because that was the chief high place: it was Solomon's way to make a thousand burned offerings on that altar.
5 Gibeonā Tas Kungs parādījās Salamanam nakts sapnī; un Dievs sacīja: lūdz, ko Man tev būs dot.
In Gibeon, Solomon had a vision of the Lord in a dream by night; and God said to him, Say what I am to give 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, Great was your mercy to David my father, as his life before you was true and upright and his heart was true to you; and you have kept for him this greatest mercy, a son to take his place 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 my God, you have made your servant king in the place of David my father; and I am only a young boy, with no knowledge of 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.
And your servant has round him the people of your selection, a people so great that they may not be numbered, and no account of them may be given.
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?
Give your servant, then, a wise heart for judging your people, able to see what is good and what evil; for who is able to be the judge of this great people?
10 Un šis vārds Tam Kungam labi patika, ka Salamans bija lūdzis šo lietu.
Now these words and Solomon's request were pleasing to the Lord.
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 God said to him, Because your request is for this thing, and not for long life for yourself or for wealth or for the destruction of your haters, but for wisdom to be a judge of causes;
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.
I have done as you said: I have given you a wise and far-seeing heart, so that there has never been your equal in the past, and never will there be any like you in the future.
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.
And with this I have given you what you made no request for: wealth and honour, so that no king was ever 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.
And if you go on in my ways, keeping my laws and my orders as your father David did, I will give you a long life.
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.
And Solomon, awakening, saw that it was a dream; then he came to Jerusalem, where he went before the ark of the agreement of the Lord, offering burned offerings and peace-offerings; and he made a feast for all his servants.
16 To brīdi nāca divas maukas pie ķēniņa un nostājās viņa priekšā.
Then two loose women of the town came and took their places before the king;
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, O my lord, I and this woman are living in the same house; and I gave birth to a child by her side 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.
And three days after the birth of my child, this woman had a child: we were together, no other-person was with us in the house but we two only.
19 Un šīs sievas dēls naktī nomiris, tāpēc ka viņa to nogulējusi.
In the night, this woman, sleeping on her child, was the cause of its death.
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 she got up in the middle of the night and took my son from my side while your servant was sleeping; and she took it in her arms and put her dead child in my arms.
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 got up to give my child the breast, I saw that it was dead; but in the morning, looking at it with care, I saw that it was not my son.
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 said, No; but the living child is my son and the dead one yours. But the first said, No; the dead child is your son and the living one mine. So they kept on talking 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 said, One says, The living child is my son, and yours is the dead: and the other says, Not so; but your son is the dead one and mine is the living.
24 Un ķēniņš sacīja: atnesiet man zobenu. Un tie atnesa zobenu pie ķēniņa.
Then he said, Get me a sword. So they went and put a sword before the king.
25 Tad ķēniņš sacīja: pārcērtiet to dzīvo bērnu divējos gabalos un dodiet vienai vienu gabalu un otrai otru.
And the king said, Let the living child be cut in two and one half given to one woman and one 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 mother of the living child came forward, for her heart went out to her son, and she said, O my lord, give her the child; do not on any account put it to death. But the other woman said, It will not be mine or yours; let it be cut in two.
27 Tad ķēniņš atbildēja un sacīja: dodiet viņai to dzīvo bērnu un nenokaujiet to! Tā ir viņa māte.
Then the king made answer and said, Give her the child, and do not put it to death; she is the mother of it.
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.
And news of this decision which the king had made went through all Israel; and they had fear of the king, for they saw that the wisdom of God was in him to give decisions.
