I Kings 3

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 round about.

Ary Solomona tonga vinanton'i Farao, mpanjakan'i Egypta, fa nanambady ny zanakavavin'i Farao izy ka nitondra azy ho any an-Tanànan'i Davida, mandra-pahavitany ny tranony sy ny tranon'i Jehovah ary ny màndan'i Jerosalema manodidina.

Only the people sacrificed in high places, because there was no house built unto the name of the LORD, until those days.

Kanefa ny olona mbola namono zavatra hatao fanatitra teny amin'ny fitoerana avo ihany, fa tsy mbola nisy trano vita ho an'ny anaran'i Jehovah hatramin'izany andro izany.

And Solomon loved the LORD, walking in the statutes of David his father: only he sacrificed and burnt incense in high places.

Ary Solomona tia an'i Jehovah ka nizotra araka ny dian'i Davida rainy; nefa kosa izy mbola namono zavatra hatao fanatitra sy nandoro ditin-kazo manitra teny amin'ny fitoerana avo ihany.

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.

Ary ny mpanjaka nankany Gibeona hamono zavatra hatao fanatitra any, fa izany ilay fitoerana avo malaza; ka fanatitra dorana arivo no naterin'i Solomona teo amin'izany alitara izany.

In Gibeon the LORD appeared to Solomon in a dream by night: and God said, Ask what I shall give thee.

Tao Gibeona no nisehoan'i Jehovah tamin'i Solomona tamin'ny nofy nony alina; ary hoy Andriamanitra: Angataho izay tianao homeko anao.

And Solomon said, Thou hast shewed unto 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.

Dia hoy Solomona: Hianao efa naneho fahasoavana lehibe tamin'i Davida raiko mpanomponao, araka ny nandehanany teo anatrehanao tamin'ny tsi-fivadihana sy ny fahamarinana ary ny fahitsian'ny fony taminao, ary Hianao efa nitahiry izao fahasoavana lehibe izao ho azy, dia ny nanomezanao azy zanakalahy hipetraka eo amin'ny seza fiandrianany tahaka ny amin'izao anio izao.

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.

Ary ankehitriny, Jehovah Andriamanitro ô, Hianao efa nampanjaka ahy mpanomponao handimby an'i Davida raiko; nefa izaho dia mbola zaza ihany, ka tsy fantatro akory izay fivoaka sy fiditra.

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.

Ary izaho mpanomponao koa dia ao amin'ny olonao izay nofidinao, sady olona betsaka tsy tambo isaina ary tsy hita isa noho ny hamaroany.

Give therefore 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?

Koa omeo ahy mpanomponao saina malady ho entiko mitsara ny olonao hahaizako manavaka ny soa sy ny ratsy; fa iza moa no mahay mitsara izao olonao betsaka izao?

And the speech pleased the Lord, that Solomon had asked this thing.

Ary sitraky ny Tompo ny nangatahan'i Solomona izany zavatra izany;

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 judgment;

ka dia hoy Andriamanitra taminy: Satria nangataka izany zavatra izany ianao, fa tsy ny ho ela velona, na harena, na ny ain'ny fahavalonao, fa fahaizana hitsara no nangatahinao,

Behold, I have done according to thy words: lo, I have given thee a wise and an understanding heart; so that there was none like thee before thee, neither after thee shall any arise like unto thee.

dia, indro, efa nanao araka ny teninao Aho, ka indro, efa nanome anao saina hendry sady mahiratra, ka tsy nisy tahaka anao ny teo alohanao, ary tsy hisy ho tahaka anao ny ato aorianao.

And I have also given thee that which thou hast not asked, both riches, and honour: so that there shall not be any among the kings like unto thee all thy days.

Ary na izay tsy nangatahinao aza dia efa nomeko anao koa, dia harena sy voninahitra, ka tsy hisy mpanjaka tahaka anao amin'ny andronao rehetra.

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.

Ary raha handeha amin'ny lalako ianao ka hitandrina ny lalàko sy ny didiko tahaka ny nandehanan'i Davida rainao, dia hataoko ho ela velona ianao.

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.

Ary dia nahatsiaro Solomona, ka indro fa nofy izany. Ary nony tonga tany Jerosalema izy, dia nitsangana teo anoloan'ny fiaran'ny faneken'i Jehovah ka nanatitra fanatitra odorana sy fanati-pihavanana, ary dia nanao fanasana ho an'ny mpanompony rehetra izy.

Then came there two women, that were harlots, unto the king, and stood before him.

Ary tamin'izany dia nisy vehivavy janga roa nankao amin'ny mpanjaka ka nitsangana teo anatrehany.

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.

Ary hoy ilay vehivavy anankiray: Trarantitra ianao, tompokolahy, izaho sy ity vehivavy ity miray trano; ary teraka tao an-trano aho, sady tao koa izy.

And it came to pass the third day after that 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.

Ary nony efa velona hateloana aho, dia mba velona koa izavavy ity; ary izahay roa vavy ihany no tao; tsy nisy olon-kafa tao aminay tao an-trano, fa izahay roa vavy ihany.

And this woman's child died in the night; because she overlaid it.

Ary maty tamin'ny alina ny zanak'izavavy ity, fa voatsindriny.

And she arose at midnight, and took my son from beside me, while thine handmaid slept, and laid it in her bosom, and laid her dead child in my bosom.

Dia nifoha mamatonalina izy ka naka ny zanako teo amiko tamin'ilay natory iny aho ankizivavinao, dia nampandriny teo an-tratrany, fa ny azy maty napetrany teo an-tratrako.

And when I rose in the morning to give my child suck, behold, it was dead: but when I had considered it in the morning, behold, it was not my son, which I did bear.

Ary nony nifoha maraina hampinono ny zanako aho, indro fa maty izy; kanjo rehefa nofantariko sy nony maraina, dia indro fa tsy ny zanako naerako.

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 spake before the king.

Ary hoy kosa ilay anankiray: Tsia, fa ny velona no zanako, ary ny maty no zanakao. Fa hoy indray ny anankiray: Tsia, fa ny maty no zanakao, ary ny velona no zanako. izany no teniny teo anatrehan'ny mpanjaka.

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.

Ary hoy ny mpanjaka: Ny anankiray manao hoe: Ity velona no zanako. ary ny maty no zanakao; ary hoy kosa ny anankiray: Tsia, fa ny maty no zanakao, ary ny velona no zanako.

And the king said, Bring me a sword. And they brought a sword before the king.

Koa itondray sabatra aho, hoy ny mpanjaka. Ary nentiny ny sabatra ho eo anatrehan'ny mpanjaka.

And the king said, Divide the living child in two, and give half to the one, and half to the other.

Ary hoy ny mpanjaka: Sasaho ny zaza velona, ka omeo ny anankiray ny antsasany, ary ho an'ny anankiray kosa ny antsasany.

Then spake the woman whose the living child was unto 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.

Fa niteny tamin'ny mpanjaka ravehivavy, renin'ny zaza velona satria nandevilevy ny fony noho ny amin'ny zanany ka nanao hoe: Tompokolahy ô, trarantitra ianao, omeo azy ihany ary ny zaza velona, fa aza dia vonoina re! Fa hoy kosa ny iray: Aoka tsy ho ahy tsy ho anao, fa zarao mihitsy.

Then the king answered and said, Give her the living child, and in no wise slay it: she is the mother thereof.

Dia namaly ny mpanjaka ka nanao hoe: Omeo itsy ny zaza velona, fa aoka tsy hovonoina; fa io mihitsy no reniny.

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.

Ary raha ren'ny Isiraely rehetra izany fitsarana nataon'ny mpanjaka izany, dia natahotra ny mpanjaka izy, satria hitany fa misy fahendren'Andriamanitra ao am-pony ho entiny mitsara.
