And SolomonH8010 made affinityH2859 with PharaohH6547 kingH4428 of EgyptH4714, and tookH3947 Pharaoh'sH6547 daughterH1323, and broughtH935 her into the cityH5892 of DavidH1732, until he had made an endH3615 of buildingH1129 his own houseH1004, and the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068, and the wallH2346 of JerusalemH3389 round aboutH5439.
Only the peopleH5971 sacrificedH2076 in high placesH1116, because there was no houseH1004 builtH1129 unto the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068, until those daysH3117.
And SolomonH8010 lovedH157 the LORDH3068, walkingH3212 in the statutesH2708 of DavidH1732 his fatherH1: only he sacrificedH2076 and burnt incenseH6999 in high placesH1116.
And the kingH4428 wentH3212 to GibeonH1391 to sacrificeH2076 there; for thatH1931 was the greatH1419 high placeH1116: a thousandH505 burnt offeringsH5930 did SolomonH8010 offerH5927 upon that altarH4196.
In GibeonH1391 the LORDH3068 appearedH7200 to SolomonH8010 in a dreamH2472 by nightH3915: and GodH430 saidH559, AskH7592 what I shall giveH5414 thee.
And SolomonH8010 saidH559, Thou hast shewedH6213 unto thy servantH5650 DavidH1732 my fatherH1 greatH1419 mercyH2617, according as he walkedH1980 beforeH6440 thee in truthH571, and in righteousnessH6666, and in uprightnessH3483 of heartH3824 with thee; and thou hast keptH8104 for him this greatH1419 kindnessH2617, that thou hast givenH5414 him a sonH1121 to sitH3427 on his throneH3678, as it is this dayH3117. {mercy: or, bounty}
And now, O LORDH3068 my GodH430, thou hast made thy servantH5650 kingH4427 instead of DavidH1732 my fatherH1: and I am but a littleH6996 childH5288: I knowH3045 not how to go outH3318 or come inH935.
And thy servantH5650 is in the midstH8432 of thy peopleH5971 which thou hast chosenH977, a greatH7227 peopleH5971, that cannot be numberedH4487 nor countedH5608 for multitudeH7230.
GiveH5414 therefore thy servantH5650 an understandingH8085 heartH3820 to judgeH8199 thy peopleH5971, that I may discernH995 between goodH2896 and badH7451: for who is ableH3201 to judgeH8199 this thy so greatH3515 a peopleH5971? {understanding: Heb. hearing}
And the speechH1697 pleasedH3190+H5869 the LordH136, that SolomonH8010 had askedH7592 this thingH1697.
And GodH430 saidH559 unto him, Because thou hast askedH7592 this thingH1697, and hast not askedH7592 for thyself longH7227 lifeH3117; neither hast askedH7592 richesH6239 for thyself, nor hast askedH7592 the lifeH5315 of thine enemiesH341; but hast askedH7592 for thyself understandingH995 to discernH8085 judgmentH4941; {long life: Heb. many days} {discern: Heb. hear}
Behold, I have doneH6213 according to thy wordsH1697: lo, I have givenH5414 thee a wiseH2450 and an understandingH995 heartH3820; so that there was none like thee beforeH6440 thee, neither afterH310 thee shall any ariseH6965 like unto thee.
And I have also givenH5414 thee that which thou hast not askedH7592, both richesH6239, and honourH3519: so that there shall not be anyH376 among the kingsH4428 like unto thee all thy daysH3117. {shall…: or, hath not been}
And if thou wilt walkH3212 in my waysH1870, to keepH8104 my statutesH2706 and my commandmentsH4687, as thy fatherH1 DavidH1732 did walkH1980, then I will lengthenH748 thy daysH3117.
And SolomonH8010 awokeH3364; and, behold, it was a dreamH2472. And he cameH935 to JerusalemH3389, and stoodH5975 beforeH6440 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068, and offered upH5927 burnt offeringsH5930, and offeredH6213 peace offeringsH8002, and madeH6213 a feastH4960 to all his servantsH5650.
Then cameH935 there twoH8147 womenH802, that were harlotsH2181, unto the kingH4428, and stoodH5975 beforeH6440 him.
And the oneH259 womanH802 saidH559, OH994 my lordH113, I and this womanH802 dwellH3427 in oneH259 houseH1004; and I was delivered of a childH3205 with her in the houseH1004.
And it came to pass the thirdH7992 dayH3117 after that I was deliveredH3205, that this womanH802 was deliveredH3205 also: and we were togetherH3162; there was no strangerH2114 with us in the houseH1004, saveH2108 we twoH8147 in the houseH1004.
And this woman'sH802 childH1121 diedH4191 in the nightH3915; because she overlaidH7901 it.
And she aroseH6965 at midnightH8432+H3915, and tookH3947 my sonH1121 from besideH681 me, while thine handmaidH519 sleptH3463, and laidH7901 it in her bosomH2436, and laidH7901 her deadH4191 childH1121 in my bosomH2436.
And when I roseH6965 in the morningH1242 to give my childH1121 suckH3243, behold, it was deadH4191: but when I had consideredH995 it in the morningH1242, behold, it was not my sonH1121, which I did bearH3205.
And the otherH312 womanH802 saidH559, Nay; but the livingH2416 is my sonH1121, and the deadH4191 is thy sonH1121. And this saidH559, No; but the deadH4191 is thy sonH1121, and the livingH2416 is my sonH1121. Thus they spakeH1696 beforeH6440 the kingH4428.
Then saidH559 the kingH4428, The oneH2063 saithH559, This is my sonH1121 that livethH2416, and thy sonH1121 is the deadH4191: and the otherH2063 saithH559, Nay; but thy sonH1121 is the deadH4191, and my sonH1121 is the livingH2416.
And the kingH4428 saidH559, BringH3947 me a swordH2719. And they broughtH935 a swordH2719 beforeH6440 the kingH4428.
And the kingH4428 saidH559, DivideH1504 the livingH2416 childH3206 in twoH8147, and giveH5414 halfH2677 to the oneH259, and halfH2677 to the otherH259.
Then spakeH559 the womanH802 whose the livingH2416 childH1121 was unto the kingH4428, for her bowelsH7356 yearnedH3648 upon her sonH1121, and she saidH559, OH994 my lordH113, giveH5414 her the livingH2416 childH3205, and in no wiseH4191 slayH4191 it. But the other saidH559, Let it be neither mine nor thine, but divideH1504 it. {yearned: Heb. were hot}
Then the kingH4428 answeredH6030 and saidH559, GiveH5414 her the livingH2416 childH3205, and in no wiseH4191 slayH4191 it: she is the motherH517 thereof.
And all IsraelH3478 heardH8085 of the judgmentH4941 which the kingH4428 had judgedH8199; and they fearedH3372 the kingH6440: for they sawH7200 that the wisdomH2451 of GodH430 was in himH7130, to doH6213 judgmentH4941. {in him: Heb. in the midst of him}
