1 Da nu Salomo havde fået Kongedømmet sikkert i hænde besvogrede han sig med Farao, Ægypterkongen, idet han ægtede Faraos Datter; og han førte hende ind i Davidsbyen, til han fik sit eget Hus, HERRENs Hus og Muren om Jerusalem bygget færdig.
1 Then Solomon formed a marriage alliance with Pharaoh king of Egypt, and took Pharaoh’s daughter and brought her to the city of David until he had finished building his own house and the house of the Lord and the wall around Jerusalem.
6 Da sagde Salomo: "Du viste stor Miskundhed mod din Tjener, min Fader David, der jo også vandrede for dit Åsyn i Troskab, Retfærdighed og Hjertets Oprigtighed; og du lod denne store Miskundhed blive over ham og gav ham en Søn, der nu sidder på hans Trone.
6 Then Solomon said, “You have shown great lovingkindness to Your servant David my father, according as he walked before You in truth and righteousness and uprightness of heart toward You; and You have reserved for him this great lovingkindness, that You have given him a son to sit on his throne, as it is this day.
7 Ja, nu har du, HERRE min Gud, gjort din Tjener til Konge i min Fader Davids Sted. Men jeg er ganske ung og ved ikke, hvorledes jeg skal færdes ret;
7 Now, O Lord my God, You have made Your servant king in place of my father David, yet I am but a little child; I do not know how to go out or come in.
11 og Gud sagde til ham: "Fordi du bad om dette og ikke om et langt Liv, ej heller om Rigdom eller om dine Fjenders Liv, men om Forstand til at skønne, hvad ret er,
11 God said to him, “Because you have asked this thing and have not asked for yourself long life, nor have asked riches for yourself, nor have you asked for the life of your enemies, but have asked for yourself discernment to understand justice,
12 se, derfor vil jeg gøre, som du beder: Se, jeg giver dig et viist og forstandigt Hjerte, så at din Lige aldrig før har været, ej heller siden skal fremstå;
12 behold, I have done according to your words. Behold, I have given you a wise and discerning heart, so that there has been no one like you before you, nor shall one like you arise after you.
15 Da vågnede Salomo, og se, det var en Drøm. Derpå begav han sig til Jerusalem og stillede sig foran HERRENs Pagts Ark og ofrede Brændofre, bragte Takofre og gjorde et Gæstebud for alle sine Folk.
15 Then 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 burnt offerings and made peace offerings, and made a feast for all his servants.
18 og tre Dage efter min Nedkomst fødte også hun et Barn. Vi var sammen; der var ingen andre hos os i Huset, vi to var ene i Huset.
18 It happened on the third day after I gave birth, that this woman also gave birth to a child, and we were together. There was no stranger with us in the house, only the two of us in the house.
20 men midt om Natten, medens din Trælkvinde sov, stod hun op og tog min Dreng fra min Side og lagde ham ved sit Bryst; men sin døde Dreng lagde hun ved mit Bryst.
20 So she arose in the middle of the night and took my son from beside me while your maidservant slept, and laid him in her bosom, and laid her dead son in my bosom.
21 Da jeg så om Morgenen rejste mig for at give min Dreng at die, se, da var han død; men da jeg så nøje på ham om Morgenen, se, da var det ikke min Dreng, ham, som jeg havde født!"
21 When I rose in the morning to nurse my son, behold, he was dead; but when I looked at him carefully in the morning, behold, he was not my son, whom I had borne.”
22 Men den anden Kvinde sagde: "Det er ikke sandt; den levende er min Dreng, og den døde er din!" Og den første sagde: "Nej, den døde er din Dreng, og den levende er min!" Således mundhuggedes de foran Kongen.
22 Then the other woman said, “No! For the living one is my son, and the dead one is your son.” But the first woman said, “No! For the dead one is your son, and the living one is my son.” Thus they spoke before the king.
23 Da sagde Kongen: "Den ene siger: Han her, den levende, er min Dreng, den døde er din! Og den anden siger: Nej, den døde er din Dreng, den levende min!"
23 Then the king said, “The one says, ‘This is my son who is living, and your son is the dead one’; and the other says, ‘No! For your son is the dead one, and my son is the living one.’”
26 Da rørte Kærligheden til Barnet sig heftigt i den Kvinde, som var Moder til det levende Barn, og hun sagde til Kongen: "Hør mig, Herre! Giv hende det levende Barn; dræb det endelig ikke!" Men den anden sagde: "Det skal hverken tilhøre mig eller dig, hug det kun over!"
26 Then the woman whose child was the living one spoke to the king, for she was deeply stirred over her son and said, “Oh, my lord, give her the living child, and by no means kill him.” But the other said, “He shall be neither mine nor yours; divide him!”
28 Og da Israel hørte om den Dom, Kongen havde fældet, fyldtes de alle af Ærefrygt for Kongen; thi de så, at han sad inde med Guds Visdom til at skifte Ret.
28 When all Israel heard of the judgment which the king had handed down, they feared the king, for they saw that the wisdom of God was in him to administer justice.
