1 Kings 3

KING JAMES BIBLE	SMITH VAN DYKE
1 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.	1 وصاهر سليمان فرعون ملك مصر واخذ بنت فرعون واتى بها الى مدينة داود الى ان اكمل بناء بيته وبيت الرب وسور اورشليم حواليها.
2 Only the people sacrificed in high places, because there was no house built unto the name of the LORD, until those days.	2 الا ان الشعب كانوا يذبحون في المرتفعات لانه لم يبن بيت لاسم الرب الى تلك الايام.
3 And Solomon loved the LORD, walking in the statutes of David his father: only he sacrificed and burnt incense in high places.	3 واحب سليمان الرب سائرا في فرائض داود ابيه الا انه كان يذبح ويوقد في المرتفعات.
4 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.	4 وذهب الملك الى جبعون ليذبح هناك. لانها هي المرتفعة العظمى. واصعد سليمان الف محرقة على ذلك المذبح.
5 In Gibeon the LORD appeared to Solomon in a dream by night: and God said, Ask what I shall give thee.	5 في جبعون تراءى الرب لسليمان في حلم ليلا. وقال الله اسأل ماذا اعطيك.
6 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.	6 فقال سليمان انك قد فعلت مع عبدك داود ابي رحمة عظيمة حسبما سار امامك بامانة وبر واستقامة قلب معك فحفظت له هذه الرحمة العظيمة واعطيته ابنا يجلس على كرسيه كهذا اليوم.
7 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.	7 والآن ايها الرب الهي انت ملّكت عبدك مكان داود ابي وانا فتى صغير لا اعلم الخروج والدخول.
8 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.	8 وعبدك في وسط شعبك الذي اخترته شعب كثير لا يحصى ولا يعد من الكثرة.
9 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?	9 فاعط عبدك قلبا فهيما لاحكم على شعبك واميّز بين الخير والشر لانه من يقدر ان يحكم على شعبك العظيم هذا.
10 And the speech pleased the Lord, that Solomon had asked this thing.	10 فحسن الكلام في عيني الرب لان سليمان سأل هذا الأمر.
11 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;	11 فقال له الله من اجل انك قد سألت هذا الأمر ولم تسأل لنفسك اياما كثيرة ولا سألت لنفسك غنى ولا سألت انفس اعدائك بل سألت لنفسك تمييزا لتفهم الحكم
12 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.	12 هوذا قد فعلت حسب كلامك. هوذا اعطيتك قلبا حكيما ومميزا حتى انه لم يكن مثلك قبلك ولا يقوم بعدك نظيرك.
13 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.	13 وقد اعطيتك ايضا ما لم تسأله غنى وكرامة حتى انه لا يكون رجل مثلك في الملوك كل ايامك.
14 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.	14 فان سلكت في طريقي وحفظت فرائضي ووصاياي كما سلك داود ابوك فاني اطيل ايامك.
15 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.	15 فاستيقظ سليمان واذ هو حلم. وجاء الى اورشليم ووقف امام تابوت عهد الرب واصعد محرقات وقرّب ذبائح سلامة وعمل وليمة لكل عبيده
16 Then came there two women, that were harlots, unto the king, and stood before him.	16 حينئذ اتت امرأتان زانيتان الى الملك ووقفتا بين يديه.
17 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.	17 فقالت المرأة الواحدة استمع يا سيدي. اني انا وهذه المرأة ساكنتان في بيت واحد وقد ولدت معها في البيت.
18 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.	18 وفي اليوم الثالث بعد ولادتي ولدت هذه المرأة ايضا وكنا معا ولم يكن معنا غريب في البيت غيرنا نحن كلتينا في البيت.
19 And this woman's child died in the night; because she overlaid it.	19 فمات ابن هذه في الليل لانها اضطجعت عليه.
20 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.	20 فقامت في وسط الليل واخذت ابني من جانبي وامتك نائمة واضجعته في حضنها واضجعت ابنها الميت في حضني.
21 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.	21 فلما قمت صباحا لارضع ابني اذا هو ميت. ولما تأملت فيه في الصباح اذا هو ليس ابني الذي ولدته.
22 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.	22 وكانت المرأة الاخرى تقول كلا بل ابني الحي وابنك الميت. وهذه تقول لا بل ابنك الميت وابني الحي. وتكلمتا امام الملك.
23 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.	23 فقال الملك هذه تقول هذا ابني الحي وابنك الميت وتلك تقول لا بل ابنك الميت وابني الحي.
24 And the king said, Bring me a sword. And they brought a sword before the king.	24 فقال الملك ايتوني بسيف. فاتوا بسيف بين يدي الملك.
25 And the king said, Divide the living child in two, and give half to the one, and half to the other.	25 فقال الملك اشطروا الولد الحي اثنين واعطوا نصفا للواحدة ونصفا للاخرى.
26 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.	26 فتكلمت المرأة التي ابنها الحي الى الملك. لان احشاءها اضطرمت على ابنها. وقالت استمع يا سيدي. اعطوها الولد الحي ولا تميتوه. واما تلك فقالت لا يكون لي ولا لك. اشطروه.
27 Then the king answered and said, Give her the living child, and in no wise slay it: she is the mother thereof.	27 فاجاب الملك وقال اعطوها الولد الحي ولا تميتوه فانها امه.
28 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.	28 ولما سمع جميع اسرائيل بالحكم الذي حكم به الملك خافوا الملك لانهم رأوا حكمة الله فيه لاجراء الحكم
