1 Kings 3:1--5:18

And Solomon
<08010>

made affinity
<02859> (8691)

with Pharaoh
<06547>

king
<04428>

of Egypt
<04714>_,

and took
<03947> (8799)

Pharaoh's
<06547>

daughter
<01323>_,

and brought
<0935> (8686)

her into the city
<05892>

of David
<01732>_,

until he had made an end
<03615> (8763)

of building
<01129> (8800)

his own house
<01004>_,

and the house
<01004>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

and the wall
<02346>

of Jerusalem
<03389>

round about
<05439>_.

Only the people
<05971>

sacrificed
<02076> (8764)

in high places
<01116>_,

because there was no house
<01004>

built
<01129> (8738)

unto the name
<08034>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

until those days
<03117>_.

And Solomon
<08010>

loved
<0157> (8799)

the LORD
<03068>_,

walking
<03212> (8800)

in the statutes
<02708>

of David
<01732>

his father
<01>_:

only he sacrificed
<02076> (8764)

and burnt incense
<06999> (8688)

in high places
<01116>_.

And the king
<04428>

went
<03212> (8799)

to Gibeon
<01391>

to sacrifice
<02076> (8800)

there; for that
<01931>

[was] the great
<01419>

high place
<01116>_:

a thousand
<0505>

burnt offerings
<05930>

did Solomon
<08010>

offer
<05927> (8686)

upon that altar
<04196>_.

In Gibeon
<01391>

the LORD
<03068>

appeared
<07200> (8738)

to Solomon
<08010>

in a dream
<02472>

by night
<03915>_:

and God
<0430>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Ask
<07592> (8798)

what I shall give
<05414> (8799)

thee.

And Solomon
<08010>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Thou hast shewed
<06213> (8804)

unto thy servant
<05650>

David
<01732>

my father
<01>

great
<01419>

mercy
<02617>_,

according as he walked
<01980> (8804)

before
<06440>

thee in truth
<0571>_,

and in righteousness
<06666>_,

and in uprightness
<03483>

of heart
<03824>

with thee; and thou hast kept
<08104> (8799)

for him this great
<01419>

kindness
<02617>_,

that thou hast given
<05414> (8799)

him a son
<01121>

to sit
<03427> (8802)

on his throne
<03678>_,

as [it is] this day
<03117>_.

{mercy: or, bounty}

And now, O LORD
<03068>

my God
<0430>_,

thou hast made thy servant
<05650>

king
<04427> (8689)

instead of David
<01732>

my father
<01>_:

and I [am but] a little
<06996>

child
<05288>_:

I know
<03045> (8799)

not [how] to go out
<03318> (8800)

or come in
<0935> (8800)_.

And thy servant
<05650>

[is] in the midst
<08432>

of thy people
<05971>

which thou hast chosen
<0977> (8804)_,

a great
<07227>

people
<05971>_,

that cannot be numbered
<04487> (8735)

nor counted
<05608> (8735)

for multitude
<07230>_.

Give
<05414> (8804)

therefore thy servant
<05650>

an understanding
<08085> (8802)

heart
<03820>

to judge
<08199> (8800)

thy people
<05971>_,

that I may discern
<0995> (8687)

between good
<02896>

and bad
<07451>_:

for who is able
<03201> (8799)

to judge
<08199> (8800)

this thy so great
<03515>

a people
<05971>_?

{understanding: Heb. hearing}

And the speech
<01697>

pleased
<03190> (8799) <05869>

the Lord
<0136>_,

that Solomon
<08010>

had asked
<07592> (8804)

this thing
<01697>_.

And God
<0430>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Because thou hast asked
<07592> (8804)

this thing
<01697>_,

and hast not asked
<07592> (8804)

for thyself long
<07227>

life
<03117>_;

neither hast asked
<07592> (8804)

riches
<06239>

for thyself, nor hast asked
<07592> (8804)

the life
<05315>

of thine enemies
<0341> (8802)_;

but hast asked
<07592> (8804)

for thyself understanding
<0995> (8687)

to discern
<08085> (8800)

judgment
<04941>_;

{long life: Heb. many days} {discern: Heb. hear}

Behold, I have done
<06213> (8804)

according to thy words
<01697>_:

lo, I have given
<05414> (8804)

thee a wise
<02450>

and an understanding
<0995> (8737)

heart
<03820>_;

so that there was none like thee before
<06440>

thee, neither after
<0310>

thee shall any arise
<06965> (8799)

like unto thee.

And I have also given
<05414> (8804)

thee that which thou hast not asked
<07592> (8804)_,

both riches
<06239>_,

and honour
<03519>_:

so that there shall not be any
<0376>

among the kings
<04428>

like unto thee all thy days
<03117>_.

{shall...: or, hath not been}

And if thou wilt walk
<03212> (8799)

in my ways
<01870>_,

to keep
<08104> (8800)

my statutes
<02706>

and my commandments
<04687>_,

as thy father
<01>

David
<01732>

did walk
<01980> (8804)_,

then I will lengthen
<0748> (8689)

thy days
<03117>_.

And Solomon
<08010>

awoke
<03364> (8799)_;

and, behold, [it was] a dream
<02472>_.

And he came
<0935> (8799)

to Jerusalem
<03389>_,

and stood
<05975> (8799)

before
<06440>

the ark
<0727>

of the covenant
<01285>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

and offered up
<05927> (8686)

burnt offerings
<05930>_,

and offered
<06213> (8799)

peace offerings
<08002>_,

and made
<06213> (8799)

a feast
<04960>

to all his servants
<05650>_.

Then came
<0935> (8799)

there two
<08147>

women
<0802>_,

[that were] harlots
<02181> (8802)_,

unto the king
<04428>_,

and stood
<05975> (8799)

before
<06440>

him.

And the one
<0259>

woman
<0802>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

O
<0994>

my lord
<0113>_,

I and this woman
<0802>

dwell
<03427> (8802)

in one
<0259>

house
<01004>_;

and I was delivered of a child
<03205> (8799)

with her in the house
<01004>_.

And it came to pass the third
<07992>

day
<03117>

after that I was delivered
<03205> (8800)_,

that this woman
<0802>

was delivered
<03205> (8799)

also: and we [were] together
<03162>_;

[there was] no stranger
<02114> (8801)

with us in the house
<01004>_,

save
<02108>

we two
<08147>

in the house
<01004>_.

And this woman's
<0802>

child
<01121>

died
<04191> (8799)

in the night
<03915>_;

because she overlaid
<07901> (8804)

it.

And she arose
<06965> (8799)

at midnight
<08432> <03915>_,

and took
<03947> (8799)

my son
<01121>

from beside
<0681>

me, while thine handmaid
<0519>

slept
<03463>_,

and laid
<07901> (8686)

it in her bosom
<02436>_,

and laid
<07901> (8689)

her dead
<04191> (8801)

child
<01121>

in my bosom
<02436>_.

And when I rose
<06965> (8799)

in the morning
<01242>

to give my child
<01121>

suck
<03243> (8687)_,

behold, it was dead
<04191> (8804)_:

but when I had considered
<0995> (8709)

it in the morning
<01242>_,

behold, it was not my son
<01121>_,

which I did bear
<03205> (8804)_.

And the other
<0312>

woman
<0802>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Nay; but the living
<02416>

[is] my son
<01121>_,

and the dead
<04191> (8801)

[is] thy son
<01121>_.

And this said
<0559> (8802)_,

No; but the dead
<04191> (8801)

[is] thy son
<01121>_,

and the living
<02416>

[is] my son
<01121>_.

Thus they spake
<01696> (8762)

before
<06440>

the king
<04428>_.

Then said
<0559> (8799)

the king
<04428>_,

The one
<02063>

saith
<0559> (8802)_,

This [is] my son
<01121>

that liveth
<02416>_,

and thy son
<01121>

[is] the dead
<04191> (8801)_:

and the other
<02063>

saith
<0559> (8802)_,

Nay; but thy son
<01121>

[is] the dead
<04191> (8801)_,

and my son
<01121>

[is] the living
<02416>_.

And the king
<04428>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Bring
<03947> (8798)

me a sword
<02719>_.

And they brought
<0935> (8686)

a sword
<02719>

before
<06440>

the king
<04428>_.

And the king
<04428>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Divide
<01504> (8798)

the living
<02416>

child
<03206>

in two
<08147>_,

and give
<05414> (8798)

half
<02677>

to the one
<0259>_,

and half
<02677>

to the other
<0259>_.

Then spake
<0559> (8799)

the woman
<0802>

whose the living
<02416>

child
<01121>

[was] unto the king
<04428>_,

for her bowels
<07356>

yearned
<03648> (8738)

upon her son
<01121>_,

and she said
<0559> (8799)_,

O
<0994>

my lord
<0113>_,

give
<05414> (8798)

her the living
<02416>

child
<03205> (8803)_,

and in no wise
<04191> (8687)

slay
<04191> (8686)

it. But the other said
<0559> (8802)_,

Let it be neither mine nor thine, [but] divide
<01504> (8798)

[it]. {yearned: Heb. were hot}

Then the king
<04428>

answered
<06030> (8799)

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Give
<05414> (8798)

her the living
<02416>

child
<03205> (8803)_,

and in no wise
<04191> (8687)

slay
<04191> (8686)

it: she [is] the mother
<0517>

thereof.

And all Israel
<03478>

heard
<08085> (8799)

of the judgment
<04941>

which the king
<04428>

had judged
<08199> (8804)_;

and they feared
<03372> (8799)

the king
<06440>_:

for they saw
<07200> (8804)

that the wisdom
<02451>

of God
<0430>

[was] in him
<07130>_,

to do
<06213> (8800)

judgment
<04941>_.

{in him: Heb. in the midst of him}

<06242>

oxen
<01241>

out of the pastures
<07471>_,

and an hundred
<03967>

sheep
<06629>_,

beside harts
<0354>_,

and roebucks
<06643>_,

and fallowdeer
<03180>_,

and fatted
<075> (8803)

fowl
<01257>_.

For he had dominion
<07287> (8802)

over all [the region] on this side
<05676>

the river
<05104>_,

from Tiphsah
<08607>

even to Azzah
<05804>_,

over all the kings
<04428>

on this side
<05676>

the river
<05104>_:

and he had peace
<07965>

on all sides
<05650> (8676) <05676>

round about
<05439>

him.

And Judah
<03063>

and Israel
<03478>

dwelt
<03427> (8799)

safely
<0983>_,

every man
<0376>

under his vine
<01612>

and under his fig tree
<08384>_,

from Dan
<01835>

even to Beersheba
<0884>_,

all the days
<03117>

of Solomon
<08010>_.

{safely: Heb. confidently}

And Solomon
<08010>

had forty
<0705>

thousand
<0505>

stalls
<0723>

of horses
<05483>

for his chariots
<04817>_,

and twelve
<08147> <06240>

thousand
<0505>

horsemen
<06571>_.

And those officers
<05324> (8737)

provided victual
<03557> (8773)

for king
<04428>

Solomon
<08010>_,

and for all that came
<07131>

unto king
<04428>

Solomon's
<08010>

table
<07979>_,

every man
<0376>

in his month
<02320>_:

they lacked
<05737> (8762)

nothing
<01697>_.

Barley
<08184>

also and straw
<08401>

for the horses
<05483>

and dromedaries
<07409>

brought
<0935> (8686)

they unto the place
<04725>

where [the officers] were, every man
<0376>

according to his charge
<04941>_.

{dromedaries: or, mules, or, swift beasts}

And God
<0430>

gave
<05414> (8799)

Solomon
<08010>

wisdom
<02451>

and understanding
<08394>

exceeding
<03966>

much
<07235> (8687)_,

and largeness
<07341>

of heart
<03820>_,

even as the sand
<02344>

that [is] on the sea
<03220>

shore
<08193>_.

And Solomon's
<08010>

wisdom
<02451>

excelled
<07235> (8799)

the wisdom
<02451>

of all the children
<01121>

of the east country
<06924>_,

and all the wisdom
<02451>

of Egypt
<04714>_.

For he was wiser
<02449> (8799)

than all men
<0120>_;

than Ethan
<0387>

the Ezrahite
<0250>_,

and Heman
<01968>_,

and Chalcol
<03633>_,

and Darda
<01862>_,

the sons
<01121>

of Mahol
<04235>_:

and his fame
<08034>

was in all nations
<01471>

round about
<05439>_.

And he spake
<01696> (8762)

three
<07969>

thousand
<0505>

proverbs
<04912>_:

and his songs
<07892>

were a thousand
<0505>

and five
<02568>_.

And he spake
<01696> (8762)

of trees
<06086>_,

from the cedar tree
<0730>

that [is] in Lebanon
<03844>

even unto the hyssop
<0231>

that springeth out
<03318> (8802)

of the wall
<07023>_:

he spake
<01696> (8762)

also of beasts
<0929>_,

and of fowl
<05775>_,

and of creeping things
<07431>_,

and of fishes
<01709>_.

And there came
<0935> (8799)

of all people
<05971>

to hear
<08085> (8800)

the wisdom
<02451>

of Solomon
<08010>_,

from all kings
<04428>

of the earth
<0776>_,

which had heard
<08085> (8804)

of his wisdom
<02451>_.

And Hiram
<02438>

king
<04428>

of Tyre
<06865>

sent
<07971> (8799)

his servants
<05650>

unto Solomon
<08010>_;

for he had heard
<08085> (8804)

that they had anointed
<04886> (8804)

him king
<04428>

in the room of his father
<01>_:

for Hiram
<02438>

was ever
<03117>

a lover
<0157> (8802)

of David
<01732>_.

{Hiram: also called, Huram}

And Solomon
<08010>

sent
<07971> (8799)

to Hiram
<02438>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Thou knowest
<03045> (8804)

how that David
<01732>

my father
<01>

could
<03201> (8804)

not build
<01129> (8800)

an house
<01004>

unto the name
<08034>

of the LORD
<03068>

his God
<0430>

for
<06440>

the wars
<04421>

which were about him on every side
<05437> (8804)_,

until the LORD
<03068>

put
<05414> (8800)

them under the soles
<03709>

of his feet
<07272>_.

But now the LORD
<03068>

my God
<0430>

hath given me rest
<05117> (8689)

on every side
<05439>_,

[so that there is] neither adversary
<07854>

nor evil
<07451>

occurrent
<06294>_.

And, behold, I purpose
<0559> (8802)

to build
<01129> (8800)

an house
<01004>

unto the name
<08034>

of the LORD
<03068>

my God
<0430>_,

as the LORD
<03068>

spake
<01696> (8765)

unto David
<01732>

my father
<01>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Thy son
<01121>_,

whom I will set
<05414> (8799)

upon thy throne
<03678>

in thy room, he shall build
<01129> (8799)

an house
<01004>

unto my name
<08034>_.

{purpose: Heb. say}

Now therefore command
<06680> (8761)

thou that they hew
<03772> (8799)

me cedar trees
<0730>

out of Lebanon
<03844>_;

and my servants
<05650>

shall be with thy servants
<05650>_:

and unto thee will I give
<05414> (8799)

hire
<07939>

for thy servants
<05650>

according to all that thou shalt appoint
<0559> (8799)_:

for thou knowest
<03045> (8804)

that [there is] not among us any
<0376>

that can skill
<03045> (8802)

to hew
<03772> (8800)

timber
<06086>

like unto the Sidonians
<06722>_.

{appoint: Heb. say}

And it came to pass, when Hiram
<02438>

heard
<08085> (8800)

the words
<01697>

of Solomon
<08010>_,

that he rejoiced
<08055> (8799)

greatly
<03966>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Blessed
<01288> (8803)

[be] the LORD
<03068>

this day
<03117>_,

which hath given
<05414> (8804)

unto David
<01732>

a wise
<02450>

son
<01121>

over this great
<07227>

people
<05971>_.

And Hiram
<02438>

sent
<07971> (8799)

to Solomon
<08010>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

I have considered
<08085> (8804)

the things which thou sentest
<07971> (8804)

to me for: [and] I will do
<06213> (8799)

all thy desire
<02656>

concerning timber
<06086>

of cedar
<0730>_,

and concerning timber
<06086>

of fir
<01265>_.

{considered: Heb. heard}

My servants
<05650>

shall bring [them] down
<03381> (8686)

from Lebanon
<03844>

unto the sea
<03220>_:

and I will convey
<07760> (8799)

them by sea
<03220>

in floats
<01702>

unto the place
<04725>

that thou shalt appoint
<07971> (8799)

me, and will cause them to be discharged
<05310> (8765)

there, and thou shalt receive
<05375> (8799)

[them]: and thou shalt accomplish
<06213> (8799)

my desire
<02656>_,

in giving
<05414> (8800)

food
<03899>

for my household
<01004>_.

{appoint: Heb. send}

So Hiram
<02438>

gave
<05414> (8802)

Solomon
<08010>

cedar
<0730>

trees
<06086>

and fir
<01265>

trees
<06086>

[according to] all his desire
<02656>_.

And Solomon
<08010>

gave
<05414> (8804)

Hiram
<02438>

twenty
<06242>

thousand
<0505>

measures
<03734>

of wheat
<02406>

[for] food
<04361>

to his household
<01004>_,

and twenty
<06242>

measures
<03734>

of pure
<03795>

oil
<08081>_:

thus gave
<05414> (8799)

Solomon
<08010>

to Hiram
<02438>

year
<08141>

by year
<08141>_.

{measures: Heb. cors}

And the LORD
<03068>

gave
<05414> (8804)

Solomon
<08010>

wisdom
<02451>_,

as he promised
<01696> (8765)

him: and there was peace
<07965>

between Hiram
<02438>

and Solomon
<08010>_;

and they two
<08147> (0)

made
<03772> (8799)

a league
<01285>

together
<08147>_.

And king
<04428>

Solomon
<08010>

raised
<05927> (8686)

a levy
<04522>

out of all Israel
<03478>_;

and the levy
<04522>

was thirty
<07970>

thousand
<0505>

men
<0376>_.

{levy: Heb. tribute of men}

And he sent
<07971> (8799)

them to Lebanon
<03844>_,

ten
<06235>

thousand
<0505>

a month
<02320>

by courses
<02487>_:

a month
<02320>

they were in Lebanon
<03844>_,

[and] two
<08147>

months
<02320>

at home
<01004>_:

and Adoniram
<0141>

[was] over the levy
<04522>_.

And Solomon
<08010>

had threescore and ten
<07657>

thousand
<0505>

that bare
<05375> (8802)

burdens
<05449>_,

and fourscore
<08084>

thousand
<0505>

hewers
<02672> (8802)

in the mountains
<02022>_;

Beside the chief
<08269>

of Solomon's
<08010>

officers
<05324> (8737)

which [were] over the work
<04399>_,

three
<07969>

thousand
<0505>

and three
<07969>

hundred
<03967>_,

which ruled
<07287> (8802)

over the people
<05971>

that wrought
<06213> (8802)

in the work
<04399>_.

And the king
<04428>

commanded
<06680> (8762)_,

and they brought
<05265> (8686)

great
<01419>

stones
<068>_,

costly
<03368>

stones
<068>_,

[and] hewed
<01496>

stones
<068>_,

to lay the foundation
<03245> (8763)

of the house
<01004>_.

And Solomon's
<08010>

builders
<01129> (8802)

and Hiram's
<02438>

builders
<01129> (8802)

did hew
<06458> (8799)

[them], and the stonesquarers
<01382>_:

so they prepared
<03559> (8686)

timber
<06086>

and stones
<068>

to build
<01129> (8800)

the house
<01004>_.
