3 And Solomon made himself a son-in-law to Pharaoh, the king of Egypt. And he took the daughter of Pharaoh, and he brought her into the City of David until his finishing to build his house and the house of Yahweh and the wall of Jerusalem round about. 2 However, the people were sacrificing at the high places because a house had not been built for the name of Yahweh up to those days. 3 And Solomon loved Yahweh, to walk in the statutes of David his father, but at the high places he was sacrificing and burning incense.
4 And the king went to Gibeon to sacrifice there, for it was the great high place. Solomon offered a thousand burnt offerings on that altar. 5 At Gibeon, Yahweh appeared to Solomon in a dream that night. And God said, “Ask! What shall I give to you?” 6 And Solomon said, “You, you did great covenant faithfulness with your servant David, my father because he walked to your face in faithfulness and in righteousness and in uprightness of heart with you. And you have kept for him this great covenant faithfulness, and you have given to him a son sitting on his throne, as it is this day. 7 And now, Yahweh my God, you, you have made your servant reign in place of David my father, but I am a little child. I do not know going out or coming in. 8 And your servant is in the midst of your people whom you have chosen, an abundant people who can not be numbered and can not be counted from abundance. 9 So may you give to your servant a hearing heart to judge your people, to discern between good to evil. For who is able to judge this your heavy people?”
10 And the thing was good in the eyes of the Lord, that Solomon had requested this thing. 11 And God said to him, “Because you have requested this thing and you have not requested for yourself many days, and you have not requested riches for yourself, and you have not requested the life of your enemies, but you have requested for yourself to discern to hear justice, 12 behold, I have done according to your word. Behold, I have given to you a wise and discerning heart, that one like you has not been to your face and one like you will not arise after you. 13 And also, what you have not requested, I have given to you, both riches and honor, so that there will not be a man like you among kings all of your days. 14 And if you walk in my ways to keep my statutes and my commandments, just as David your father walked, then I will lengthen your days.” 15 And Solomon awoke, and behold, it had been a dream. And he entered Jerusalem, and he stood to the face of the Box of the Covenant of the Lord. And he offered burnt offerings, and he made peace offerings. And he made a feast for all of his servants.
16 Then two women, prostitutes, came to the king, and they stood to his face. 17 And one woman said, “Please, my lord, I and this woman are dwelling in one house, and I gave birth with her in the house. 18 And it happened on the third day of my giving birth that this woman also gave birth. And we were together, no stranger was with us in the house, only we two were in the house. 19 And the son of this woman died at night, because she lay on him. 20 And she arose in the middle of the night, and she took my son from my side, and your female servant was asleep. And she laid him in her bosom. And her son, the one having died, she laid in my bosom. 21 And I arose in the morning to nurse my son, and behold, he had died. But I looked carefully upon him in the morning, and behold, he was not my son whom I had borne.” 22 And the other woman said, “No, for my son is the living one, and your son is the one having died.” But this one was saying, “No, for your son is the one having died, and my son is the living one.” And they spoke to the face of the king.
23 And the king said, “This one says, ‘This is my son, the living one, and your son is the one having died,’ but that one says, ‘No, but your son is the one having died, and my son is the living one.’ ” 24 And the king said, “Get a sword for me.” And they brought the sword to the face of the king. 25 And the king said, “Divide the living child in two, and give half to one and half to the other.” 26 And the woman whose son was the living one spoke to the king, for her compassions for her son were kindled. And she said, “Please, my lord, give the living child to her, but killing, you must not kill him!” But this one was saying, “He will not be either for me or for you. Divide.” 27 And the king answered and said, “Give the living child to her, and killing, you shall not kill him. She is his mother.” 28 And all of Israel heard the judgment that the king had judged, and they were afraid from the face of the king, because they saw that the wisdom of God was within him to do justice.
