1Solomon 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 Yahweh, and the wall of Jerusalem all around.
1Huan, Solomonin Aigupta kumpia Pharo toh kizolhna a bawla, Pharo tanu a kitenpiha, amah in leh Toupa in a lam ma leh, Jerusalem khua kulha a um suak ma siah David khopi ah a om sak hi.
2Only the people sacrificed in the high places, because there was no house built for the name of Yahweh until those days.
2Mipite lah mun sangte khawngah a kithoih mai nak ua, huai main Toupa min dinga in lam a om nai tak dih louh jiakin.
3Solomon loved Yahweh, walking in the statutes of David his father: only he sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places.
3Solomonin Toupa a ita, a pa David thusehte a jui seka; mun sangtea kithoihin, gimlimte a nahal sek mawk naa,
4The king went to Gibeon to sacrifice there; for that was the great high place. Solomon offered a thousand burnt offerings on that altar.
4Huan, kumpipa kithoih dingin Gibeon khuaah a hoha; huai lah mun sang poimoh tak ahi ngala: Solomonin huai maitam tungah halmanga thillat sangkhat tal alan hi.
5In Gibeon Yahweh appeared to Solomon in a dream by night; and God said, “Ask what I shall give you.”
5Huan, Gibeon khuaah Toupa janin Solomon kiangah amangin a hongkihila: huan, Pathianin, ngen ve, bang ahia ka honpiak ding? a chi a.
6Solomon said, “You have shown to your servant David my father great loving kindness, according as he walked before you in truth, and in righteousness, and in uprightness of heart with you. You have kept for him this great loving kindness, that you have given him a son to sit on his throne, as it is this day.
6Huan, Solomonin, na sikha ka pa David na mitmuha thutaka leh diktatna leh, lungtang dik tak puaa a om jel bangin nang a kiangah hehpihna thupi mahmah nalangsaka; nang hiai hehpihna thupi mahmah amah adingin na deihguana, nang a laltutphaha tu ding tapa na piaa, tunia a hongom petmah bangin.
7Now, Yahweh my God, you have made your servant king instead of David my father. I am but a little child. I don’t know how to go out or come in.
7Huchiin, aw Toupa ka Pathian, nang na sikha, ka pa David sikin kumpipa dingin na nabawltaa: kei jaw naupang lel ka hia; thu tung lam leh kuan lam leng ka theikei hi.
8Your servant is in the midst of your people which you have chosen, a great people, that can’t be numbered nor counted for multitude.
8Na sikha na mite na telte, mi tampi, a tam jiak ua sim seng vual louh leh, a zah theih seng vuallouhte lakah a om hi.
9Give your servant therefore an understanding heart to judge your people, that I may discern between good and evil; for who is able to judge this your great people?”
9Huchiin, na mite vaihawmsakna dingin na sikha theihna lungtang piain, a sia leh a pha ka khen theihna dingin; na mi hiai zahzah kuana hia vaihawm sak thei ding? a chi a.
10The speech pleased the Lord, that Solomon had asked this thing.
10Huan, Solomonin huai a nget jiakin huai thu genin Toupa a kipaksak mahmah mai a.
11God said to him, “Because you have asked this thing, and have not asked for yourself long life, neither have asked riches for yourself, nor have asked the life of your enemies, but have asked for yourself understanding to discern justice;
11Huan, Pathianin a kiangah, nang dam sawtna kingetsak loua, huchibang na nget jiakin leh, hausaknate leng kingetsak loua, na melmate sihna leng ngen loua, vaihawm siamna na kingetsak jawk jiakin,
12behold, I have done according to your word. Behold, I have given you a wise and an understanding heart; so that there has been none like you before you, neither after you shall any arise like you.
12Ngaiin, na nget bangin ka hihta: Ngaiin, pilna leh theihna lungtang ka honpia; huchiin, na maah nang bang mahmah kuamah a om kei ua, na nungchiangin leng nang bang mahmah kuamah a hongom sam kei ding uh.
13I have also given you that which you have not asked, both riches and honor, so that there shall not be any among the kings like you, all your days.
13Huan, na ngetlouh, hausakna leh thupina leng ka honpe lai hi; huchiin na dam sungin kumpipate lakah nang bang mahmah a om kei ding uh.
14If you will walk in my ways, to keep my statutes and my commandments, as your father David walked, then I will lengthen your days.”
14Na pa Davidin a zuih banga ka thusehte leh ka thupiak te pom dinga ka lampite na zuih leh ka hondam sawt sak lai ding, achia.
15Solomon awoke; and behold, it was a dream. Then he came to Jerusalem, and stood before the ark of the covenant of Yahweh, and offered up burnt offerings, offered peace offerings, and made a feast to all his servants.
15Huan, Solomon a khanglou a, ngai in, mang ana hi: huan, Jerusalem ah a hoh a, Toupa thukhun na bawm maah a dinga, halmanga thillat leh lemna thillatte a lana, a sikhate tengteng a dingin ankuang a lui.
16Then two women who were prostitutes came to the king, and stood before him.
16Huchiin numei nih, kijuak, kumpipa kiangah a hoh ua, a maah ava ding uh.
17The one woman said, “Oh, my lord, I and this woman dwell in one house. I delivered a child with her in the house.
17Huan, numei khat in, aw ka pu, hiai numei toh in khata teng khawm ka hi ua; huai inna ka om tei laiin nau ka nei a.
18It happened the third day after I delivered, that this woman delivered also. We were together. There was no stranger with us in the house, just us two in the house.
18Huan, hichi ahia, ka nau neih nung ni thum nungin hiai numeiin leng a nei sama; om khawm ka hi ua; huai ina om kou tegel lou, huai in ah kuamah mikhual om a om kei uh.
19This woman’s child died in the night, because she lay on it.
19Huan, hiai numei ta janin a nasi a; a delh lup ahi.
20She arose at midnight, and took my son from beside me, while your handmaid slept, and laid it in her bosom, and laid her dead child in my bosom.
20Huchiin, jan laiin a thou a, na sikhanu a ihmut kalin, ka sika ka tapa a la a, a poma, ata sipen ka angah ana sial.
21When I rose in the morning to nurse my child, behold, it was dead; but when I had looked at it in the morning, behold, it was not my son, whom I bore.”
21A jingsanga ka ta nawi pe dinga ka thoh leh, ngaiin, a si ana hi nilouh mawk hi: himahleh jingsanga ka etchet leh ngaiin, ka tapa, ka suanpen ana hi hetkei hial hi, achia.
22The other woman said, “No; but the living is my son, and the dead is your son.” This said, “No; but the dead is your son, and the living is my son.” Thus they spoke before the king.
22Huan, numei dangin, Hi lou e, a hingpen ka tapa ahi jaw, a sipen na tapa ahi, a chi tei a. Khatin, Hi lou, a sipen na tapa ahi, a hing pen ka tapa ahi jaw, a chi chiltel sam a. Huchibangin kumpipa maah a gentuaktuak uh.
23Then the king said, “The one says, ‘This is my son who lives, and your son is the dead;’ and the other says, ‘No; but your son is the dead one, and my son is the living one.’”
23Huchiin, kumpipan, Khatin, ahingpen ka tapa ahi: a sipen na tapa ahi, a chi a: huan, khatin, Hilou, a sipen na tapa ahi, a hingpen ka tapa ahi jaw, a chi jel ngala, achia.
24The king said, “Get me a sword.” They brought a sword before the king.
24Huan, kumpipan, namsau honva lak dih uh, a chi a, huchiin namsau kumpipa maah a honla ua.
25The king said, “Divide the living child in two, and give half to the one, and half to the other.”
25Huan, kumpipan, naungek hingpen tum nih suah unla, a kimkhat khat pia unla, a kimkhat khat pia un, a chi a.
26Then the woman whose the living child was spoke to the king, for her heart yearned over her son, and she said, “Oh, my lord, give her the living child, and in no way kill it!” But the other said, “It shall be neither mine nor yours. Divide it.”
26Huchiin, naungek hingpen nuin a ta a lainat mahmah mai ngala, kumpipa kiangah, Aw ka pu, naungek hingpen amah pe maiin, a thah a hihleh that mahmah ken, a chi a. Khatpenin bel, keia lah hi tuan kenteh, nanga lah hi tuan ken teh: tumtan maiin, a chi a.
27Then the king answered, “Give her the living child, and in no way kill it. She is its mother.”
27Huchiin, kumpipan a dawnga, naungek hingpen amah pia un, that het kei un: amah mah a nu ahi, a chi a.Huan, Israelte tengtengin huai thua kumpipa vaihawm dan ana ja ua; kumpipa akihtata mahmah mai uh: vaihawmna dingin Pathian pil na amah ah a om chi a thei ngal ua.
28All 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 justice.
28Huan, Israelte tengtengin huai thua kumpipa vaihawm dan ana ja ua; kumpipa akihtata mahmah mai uh: vaihawmna dingin Pathian pil na amah ah a om chi a thei ngal ua.
