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 the kingdom was established in the hand of Solomon, and he made affinity with Pharao the king of Egypt: for he took his 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 Bet tie ļaudis upurēja uz kalniem, jo līdz tam laikam vēl nams nebija uztaisīts Tā Kunga vārdam.
But yet the people sacrificed in the high places: far there was no temple built to the name of the Lord until that day.
3 Un Salamans mīlēja To Kungu, staigādams sava tēva Dāvida likumos, tomēr viņš upurēja un kvēpināja uz kalniem.
And Solomon loved the Lord, walking in the precepts of David his father, only he sacrificed in the high places: and burnt incense.
4 Un ķēniņš nogāja uz Gibeonu, tur upurēt, jo tur bija tas lielais kalns; tūkstoš dedzināmos upurus Salamans upurēja uz šī altāra.
He went therefore to Gabaon, to sacrifice there: for that was the great high place: a thousand victims for holocausts did Solomon offer upon that altar in Gabaon.
5 Gibeonā Tas Kungs parādījās Salamanam nakts sapnī; un Dievs sacīja: lūdz, ko Man tev būs dot.
And the Lord appeared to Solomon in a dream by night, saying: Ask what thou wilt that I should give thee.
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: Thou hast shewn great mercy to thy servant David my father, even at, he walked before thee in truth, and justice, and an upright heart with thee: and thou hast kept thy great mercy for him, and hast given him a son to sit on his throne, 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, thou hast made thy servant king instead of David my father: and I am but a child, and know not how to go out and 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 thy servant is in the midst of the people which thou hast chosen, an immense people, which cannot be numbered nor counted for 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?
Give therefore to thy servant an understanding heart, to judge thy people, and discern between good and evil. For who shall be able to judge this people, thy people which is so numerous?
10 Un šis vārds Tam Kungam labi patika, ka Salamans bija lūdzis šo lietu.
And the word was pleasing to the Lord that Solomon had asked such a 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: Because thou hast asked this thing, and hast not asked for thyself long life or riches, nor the lives of thy enemies, but hast asked for thyself wisdom 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 thee according to thy words, and have given thee a wise and understanding heart, insomuch that there hath been no one like thee before thee, nor shall arise after thee.
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.
Yea and the things also which thou didst not ask, I have given thee: to wit riches and glory, as that no one hath been like thee among the kings in all days heretofore.
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 thou wilt walk in my ways, and Beep my precepts, and my commandments, as thy father walked, I will lengthen thy 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.
And Solomon awaked, and perceived that it was a dream: and when he was come to Jerusalem, he stood before the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and offered holocausts, and sacrificed victims of peace offerings, and made a great feast for all his servants.
16 To brīdi nāca divas maukas pie ķēniņa un nostājās viņa priekšā.
Then there came two women that were harlots, 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.
And one of them said: I beseech thee, my lord, I and this woman dwelt in one house, and I was delivered of a child with her in the chamber.
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 the third day, after that I was delivered, she also was delivered, and we were together, and no other person with us in the house, only we two.
19 Un šīs sievas dēls naktī nomiris, tāpēc ka viņa to nogulējusi.
And this woman’s child died in the night: for in her sleep she overlaid 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 in the dead time of the night, she took my child from my side, while I thy handmaid was asleep, and laid it in her bosom: and laid her dead child 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 rose in the morning to give my child suck, behold it was dead: but considering him more diligently when it was clear day, I found that it was not mine which I bore.
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 answered: It is not so as thou sayest, but thy child is dead, and mine is alive. On the contrary she said: Thou liest: for my child liveth, and thy child is dead. And in this manner they strove 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: The one saith, My child is alive, and thy child is dead. And the other answereth: Nay, but thy child is dead, and mine liveth.
24 Un ķēniņš sacīja: atnesiet man zobenu. Un tie atnesa zobenu pie ķēniņa.
The king therefore said: Bring me a sword. 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.
Divide, said he, the living child in two, and give half to the 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!
But the woman whose child was alive, said to the king, (for her bowels were moved upon her child, ) I beseech thee, my lord, give her the child alive, and do not kill it. But the other said: Let it be neither mine nor thine, but divide it.
27 Tad ķēniņš atbildēja un sacīja: dodiet viņai to dzīvo bērnu un nenokaujiet to! Tā ir viņa māte.
The king answered, and said: Give the living child to this woman, and let it not be killed, for she is the mother thereof.
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 all Israel heard the judgment which the king had judged, and they feared the king, seeing that the wisdom of God was in him to do judgment.
