1 Now Solomon made a treaty with Pharaoh king of Egypt, and married Pharaoh’s daughter; then he brought her to the City of David until he had finished building his own house, and the house of the LORD, and the wall all around Jerusalem.
.-
2 Meanwhile the people sacrificed at the high places, because there was no house built for the name of the LORD until those days.
πλὴν-ο-λαὸς-ῆσαν-θυμιῶντες-επὶ-τοῖς-υψηλοῖς-,-ότι-ουκ-ωκοδομήθη-οῖκος-τῶ-ονόματι-κυρίου-έως-νῦν-.-
3 And Solomon loved the LORD, walking in the statutes of his father David, except that he sacrificed and burned incense at the high places.
καὶ-ηγάπησεν-Σαλωμων-τὸν-κύριον-πορεύεσθαι-εν-τοῖς-προστάγμασιν-Δαυιδ-τοῦ-πατρὸς-αυτοῦ-,-πλὴν-εν-τοῖς-υψηλοῖς-έθυεν-καὶ-εθυμία-.-
4 Now the king went to Gibeon to sacrifice there, for that was the great high place: Solomon offered a thousand burnt offerings on that altar.
καὶ-ανέστη-καὶ-επορεύθη-εις-Γαβαων-θῦσαι-εκεῖ-,-ότι-αυτὴ-υψηλοτάτη-καὶ-μεγάλη-·-χιλίαν-ολοκαύτωσιν-ανήνεγκεν-Σαλωμων-επὶ-τὸ-θυσιαστήριον-εν-Γαβαων-.-
5 At Gibeon the LORD appeared to Solomon in a dream by night; and God said, “Ask! What shall I give you?”
καὶ-ώφθη-κύριος-τῶ-Σαλωμων-εν-ύπνω-τὴν-νύκτα-,-καὶ-εῖπεν-κύριος-πρὸς-Σαλωμων-Αίτησαί-τι-αίτημα-σαυτῶ-.-
6 And Solomon said: “You have shown great mercy to Your servant David my father, because he walked before You in truth, in righteousness, and in uprightness of heart with You; You have continued this great kindness for him, and You have given him a son to sit on his throne, as it is this day.
καὶ-εῖπεν-Σαλωμων-Σὺ-εποίησας-μετὰ-τοῦ-δούλου-σου-Δαυιδ-τοῦ-πατρός-μου-έλεος-μέγα-,-καθὼς-διῆλθεν-ενώπιόν-σου-εν-αληθεία-καὶ-εν-δικαιοσύνη-καὶ-εν-ευθύτητι-καρδίας-μετὰ-σοῦ-,-καὶ-εφύλαξας-αυτῶ-τὸ-έλεος-τὸ-μέγα-τοῦτο-δοῦναι-τὸν-υιὸν-αυτοῦ-επὶ-τοῦ-θρόνου-αυτοῦ-ως-η-ημέρα-αύτη-·-
7 Now, O LORD my God, You have made Your servant king instead of my father David, but I am a little child; I do not know how to go out or come in.
καὶ-νῦν-,-κύριε-ο-θεός-μου-,-σὺ-έδωκας-τὸν-δοῦλόν-σου-αντὶ-Δαυιδ-τοῦ-πατρός-μου-,-καὶ-εγώ-ειμι-παιδάριον-μικρὸν-καὶ-ουκ-οῖδα-τὴν-έξοδόν-μου-καὶ-τὴν-είσοδόν-μου-,-
8 And Your servant is in the midst of Your people whom You have chosen, a great people, too numerous to be numbered or counted.
ο-δὲ-δοῦλός-σου-εν-μέσω-τοῦ-λαοῦ-σου-,-ὸν-εξελέξω-,-λαὸν-πολύν-,-ὸς-ουκ-αριθμηθήσεται-,-
9 Therefore give to Your servant an understanding heart to judge Your people, that I may discern between good and evil. For who is able to judge this great people of Yours?”
καὶ-δώσεις-τῶ-δούλω-σου-καρδίαν-ακούειν-καὶ-διακρίνειν-τὸν-λαόν-σου-εν-δικαιοσύνη-τοῦ-συνίειν-ανὰ-μέσον-αγαθοῦ-καὶ-κακοῦ-·-ότι-τίς-δυνήσεται-κρίνειν-τὸν-λαόν-σου-τὸν-βαρὺν-τοῦτον-;-
10 The speech pleased the Lord, that Solomon had asked this thing.
καὶ-ήρεσεν-ενώπιον-κυρίου-ότι-ητήσατο-Σαλωμων-τὸ-ρῆμα-τοῦτο-,-
11 Then God said to him: “Because you have asked this thing, and have not asked long life for yourself, nor have asked riches for yourself, nor have asked the life of your enemies, but have asked for yourself understanding to discern justice,
καὶ-εῖπεν-κύριος-πρὸς-αυτόν-Ανθ-ῶν-ητήσω-παρ᾿-εμοῦ-τὸ-ρῆμα-τοῦτο-καὶ-ουκ-ητήσω-σαυτῶ-ημέρας-πολλὰς-καὶ-ουκ-ητήσω-πλοῦτον-ουδὲ-ητήσω-ψυχὰς-εχθρῶν-σου-,-αλλ᾿-ητήσω-σαυτῶ-σύνεσιν-τοῦ-εισακούειν-κρίμα-,-
12 behold, I have done according to your words; see, I have given you a wise and understanding heart, so that there has not been anyone like you before you, nor shall any like you arise after you.
ιδοὺ-πεποίηκα-κατὰ-τὸ-ρῆμά-σου-·-ιδοὺ-δέδωκά-σοι-καρδίαν-φρονίμην-καὶ-σοφήν-,-ως-σὺ-ου-γέγονεν-έμπροσθέν-σου-καὶ-μετὰ-σὲ-ουκ-αναστήσεται-όμοιός-σοι-.-
13 And I have also given you what you have not asked: both riches and honor, so that there shall not be anyone like you among the kings all your days.
καὶ-ὰ-ουκ-ητήσω-,-δέδωκά-σοι-,-καὶ-πλοῦτον-καὶ-δόξαν-,-ως-ου-γέγονεν-ανὴρ-όμοιός-σοι-εν-βασιλεῦσιν-·-
14 So if you walk in My ways, to keep My statutes and My commandments, as your father David walked, then I will lengthen your days.”
καὶ-εὰν-πορευθῆς-εν-τῆ-οδῶ-μου-φυλάσσειν-τὰς-εντολάς-μου-καὶ-τὰ-προστάγματά-μου-,-ως-επορεύθη-Δαυιδ-ο-πατήρ-σου-,-καὶ-πληθυνῶ-τὰς-ημέρας-σου-.-
15 Then Solomon awoke; and indeed it had been a dream. And he came to Jerusalem and stood before the ark of the covenant of the LORD, offered up burnt offerings, offered peace offerings, and made a feast for all his servants.
καὶ-εξυπνίσθη-Σαλωμων-,-καὶ-ιδοὺ-ενύπνιον-·-καὶ-ανέστη-καὶ-παραγίνεται-εις-Ιερουσαλημ-καὶ-έστη-κατὰ-πρόσωπον-τοῦ-θυσιαστηρίου-τοῦ-κατὰ-πρόσωπον-κιβωτοῦ-διαθήκης-κυρίου-εν-Σιων-καὶ-ανήγαγεν-ολοκαυτώσεις-καὶ-εποίησεν-ειρηνικὰς-καὶ-εποίησεν-πότον-μέγαν-εαυτῶ-καὶ-πᾶσιν-τοῖς-παισὶν-αυτοῦ-.-
16 Now two women who were harlots came to the king, and stood before him.
Τότε-ώφθησαν-δύο-γυναῖκες-πόρναι-τῶ-βασιλεῖ-καὶ-έστησαν-ενώπιον-αυτοῦ-.-
17 And one woman said, “O my lord, this woman and I dwell in the same house; and I gave birth while she was in the house.
καὶ-εῖπεν-η-γυνὴ-η-μία-Εν-εμοί-,-κύριε-·-εγὼ-καὶ-η-γυνὴ-αύτη-οικοῦμεν-εν-οίκω-ενὶ-καὶ-ετέκομεν-εν-τῶ-οίκω-.-
18 Then it happened, the third day after I had given birth, that this woman also gave birth. And we were together; no one was with us in the house, except the two of us in the house.
καὶ-εγενήθη-εν-τῆ-ημέρα-τῆ-τρίτη-τεκούσης-μου-καὶ-έτεκεν-καὶ-η-γυνὴ-αύτη-·-καὶ-ημεῖς-κατὰ-τὸ-αυτό-,-καὶ-ουκ-έστιν-ουθεὶς-μεθ᾿-ημῶν-πάρεξ-αμφοτέρων-ημῶν-εν-τῶ-οίκω-.-
19 And this woman’s son died in the night, because she lay on him.
καὶ-απέθανεν-ο-υιὸς-τῆς-γυναικὸς-ταύτης-τὴν-νύκτα-,-ως-επεκοιμήθη-επ᾿-αυτόν-·-
20 So she arose in the middle of the night and took my son from my side, while your maidservant slept, and laid him in her bosom, and laid her dead child in my bosom.
καὶ-ανέστη-μέσης-τῆς-νυκτὸς-καὶ-έλαβεν-τὸν-υιόν-μου-εκ-τῶν-αγκαλῶν-μου-καὶ-εκοίμισεν-αυτὸν-εν-τῶ-κόλπω-αυτῆς-καὶ-τὸν-υιὸν-αυτῆς-τὸν-τεθνηκότα-εκοίμισεν-εν-τῶ-κόλπω-μου-.-
21 And when I rose in the morning to nurse my son, there he was, dead. But when I had examined him in the morning, indeed, he was not my son whom I had borne.”
καὶ-ανέστην-τὸ-πρωὶ-θηλάσαι-τὸν-υιόν-μου-,-καὶ-εκεῖνος-ῆν-τεθνηκώς-·-καὶ-ιδοὺ-κατενόησα-αυτὸν-πρωί-,-καὶ-ιδοὺ-ουκ-ῆν-ο-υιός-μου-,-ὸν-έτεκον-.-
22 Then the other woman said, “No! But the living one is my son, and the dead one is your son.” And the first woman said, “No! But the dead one is your son, and the living one is my son.” Thus they spoke before the king.
καὶ-εῖπεν-η-γυνὴ-η-ετέρα-Ουχί-,-αλλὰ-ο-υιός-μου-ο-ζῶν-,-ο-δὲ-υιός-σου-ο-τεθνηκώς-.-καὶ-ελάλησαν-ενώπιον-τοῦ-βασιλέως-.-
23 And the king said, “The one says, ‘This is my son, who lives, and your son is the dead one’; and the other says, ‘No! But your son is the dead one, and my son is the living one.’ ”
καὶ-εῖπεν-ο-βασιλεὺς-αυταῖς-Σὺ-λέγεις-Οῦτος-ο-υιός-μου-ο-ζῶν-,-καὶ-ο-υιὸς-ταύτης-ο-τεθνηκώς-·-καὶ-σὺ-λέγεις-Ουχί-,-αλλὰ-ο-υιός-μου-ο-ζῶν-,-καὶ-ο-υιός-σου-ο-τεθνηκώς-.-
24 Then the king said, “Bring me a sword.” So they brought a sword before the king.
καὶ-εῖπεν-ο-βασιλεύς-Λάβετέ-μοι-μάχαιραν-·-καὶ-προσήνεγκαν-τὴν-μάχαιραν-ενώπιον-τοῦ-βασιλέως-.-
25 And the king said, “Divide the living child in two, and give half to one, and half to the other.”
καὶ-εῖπεν-ο-βασιλεύς-Διέλετε-τὸ-παιδίον-τὸ-θηλάζον-τὸ-ζῶν-εις-δύο-καὶ-δότε-τὸ-ήμισυ-αυτοῦ-ταύτη-καὶ-τὸ-ήμισυ-αυτοῦ-ταύτη-.-
26 Then the woman whose son was living spoke to the king, for she yearned with compassion for her son; and she said, “O my lord, give her the living child, and by no means kill him!” But the other said, “Let him be neither mine nor yours, but divide him.
καὶ-απεκρίθη-η-γυνή-,-ῆς-ῆν-ο-υιὸς-ο-ζῶν-,-καὶ-εῖπεν-πρὸς-τὸν-βασιλέα-,-ότι-εταράχθη-η-μήτρα-αυτῆς-επὶ-τῶ-υιῶ-αυτῆς-,-καὶ-εῖπεν-Εν-εμοί-,-κύριε-,-δότε-αυτῆ-τὸ-παιδίον-καὶ-θανάτω-μὴ-θανατώσητε-αυτόν-·-καὶ-αύτη-εῖπεν-Μήτε-εμοὶ-μήτε-αυτῆ-έστω-·-διέλετε-.-
27 So the king answered and said, “Give the first woman the living child, and by no means kill him; she is his mother.”
καὶ-απεκρίθη-ο-βασιλεὺς-καὶ-εῖπεν-Δότε-τὸ-παιδίον-τῆ-ειπούση-Δότε-αυτῆ-αυτὸ-καὶ-θανάτω-μὴ-θανατώσητε-αυτόν-·-αυτὴ-η-μήτηρ-αυτοῦ-.-
28 And all Israel heard of the judgment which the king had rendered; and they feared the king, for they saw that the wisdom of God was in him to administer justice.
καὶ-ήκουσαν-πᾶς-Ισραηλ-τὸ-κρίμα-τοῦτο-,-ὸ-έκρινεν-ο-βασιλεύς-,-καὶ-εφοβήθησαν-απὸ-προσώπου-τοῦ-βασιλέως-,-ότι-εῖδον-ότι-φρόνησις-θεοῦ-εν-αυτῶ-τοῦ-ποιεῖν-δικαίωμα-.-
