1 Siangpahrang 10
1 BAWIPA e min dawk Solomon e kamthang hah Sheba ram e siangpahrangnu ni a thai toteh, lawk karunaw pacei hane hoi tanouk hanelah a tho.
Then, too, the queen of Sheba, having heard of the fame of Solomon in the name of the Lord, arrived to test him with enigmas.
2 Hmuitui a phunkuep hoi sui moikapap, talung phu kaawmnaw ka phawt e kalauknaw hoi a tho. Jerusalem kho dawk Solomon siangpahrang koe a pha toteh, a lung dawk kaawm e hah koung a pâpho.
And entering into Jerusalem with a great retinue, and with riches, and with camels carrying aromatics, and with an exceedingly great quantity of gold and precious stones, she went to king Solomon. And she spoke to him all that she held in her heart.
3 Lawk a pacei e pueng Solomon ni a dei thai hoeh e, a phi thai hoeh e, a thai panuek hoeh e buet touh hai awm hoeh.
And Solomon taught her, in all the words that she had proposed to him. There was not any word which was able to be hidden from the king, or which he did not answer for her.
4 Sheba siagpahrangnu ni Solomon siangpahrang e lungangnae pueng thoseh, im a sak e thoseh,
Then, when the queen of Sheba saw all the wisdom of Solomon, and the house that he had built,
5 a caboi dawk ca hane rawcanaw, thaw katawknaw e oang thoseh, a kamthoup awh e thoseh, manang kapoenaw hoi BAWIPA im dawk a poe e hmaisawi thuengnae naw thoseh a hmu toteh, kângairu lahoi sut ao.
and the food of his table, and the dwelling places of his servants, and the rows of his ministers, and their apparel, and the cupbearers, and the holocausts that he was offering in the house of the Lord, she had no longer any spirit in her.
6 Napui ni siangpahrang koevah, na lungangnae kamthang ka ram koehoi ka thai e heh atang bokheiyah.
And she said to the king: “The word is true, which I have heard in my own land,
7 Hateiteh, kama ka tho toteh, ka mit ni a hmue hoehnahlan teh hote lawk hah ka yuem hoeh. Atuteh, ka thai tangcoung e a tangawn boehai na dei pouh hoeh. Nange lungangnae hoi na hnopai teh ka thai e hlak puk a tapuet.
about your words and your wisdom. But I did not believe those who explained it to me, until I went myself and saw it with my own eyes. And I have discovered that the half of it has not been told to me: your wisdom and works are greater than the report that I have heard.
8 Na hmalah pou kaawm awh niteh, lungangnae ka thai e na taminaw hoi na sannaw teh a yawhawi awh.
Blessed are your men, and blessed are your servants, who stand before you always, and who hear your wisdom.
9 Nange lathueng a lunghawi awh teh, BAWIPA Cathut, Isarel bawitungkhung dawk katahungsakkung teh pholennae lah awm seh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA ni Isarel a lungpataw yungyoe. Hatdawkvah, yuemkamcu hoi kalan lah lawkceng hanelah siangpahrang lah na rawi awh e doeh telah atipouh.
Blessed is the Lord your God, whom you have greatly pleased, and who has placed you upon the throne of Israel. For the Lord loves Israel forever, and he has appointed you as king, so that you may accomplish judgment and justice.”
10 Siangpahrang koe sui talen 120 hoi hmuitui moikapap hoi talung phu kaawmnaw hah a poe. Sheba siangpahrangnu ni siangpahrang Solomon a poe e patet e hmuitui bout tâcawt hoeh toe.
Then she gave the king one hundred twenty talents of gold, and an exceedingly great amount of aromatics and precious stones. No greater quantity of aromatics was ever again brought forth as these, which the queen of Sheba gave to king Solomon.
11 Khiram long hoi Ophir kho lahoi sui ka phawt e ni hai Ophir kho hoi Almuk thing moikapap hoi talung aphu kaawm hah a phu awh.
Then, too, the navy of Hiram, which carried gold from Ophir, brought an exceedingly great quantity of thyine wood and precious stones from Ophir.
12 Siangpahrang ni Almuk thing hah BAWIPA e im hoi siangpahrang im tungdum nahane hoi la kasaknaw hane ratoung, vovit sak nahane totouh a hno. Hot patetlae Almuk thing teh bout thokhai awh hoeh toe. Sahnin totouh kamphawng hoeh.
And the king made, from the thyine wood, the posts of the house of the Lord, and of the house of the king, and citharas and lyres for the musicians. No thyine trees of this kind were ever again brought forth or seen, even to the present day.
13 Siangpahrang Solomon ni lungthonae lahoi a poe e hloilah Solomon ni Sheba siangpahrangnu teh a ngai e hoi a hei e pueng a poe. Hottelah hoi ama hoi a sannaw hoi amae ram koelah a ban.
Then king Solomon gave the queen of Sheba all that she desired and requested of him, aside from what he himself had offered to her from his royal bounty. And she returned and went away to her own land, with her servants.
14 Solomon koe kum touh dawk e sui ka kâen e a khing talen 666 touh a pha.
Now the weight of the gold that was brought to Solomon each year was six hundred sixty-six talents of gold,
15 Hetheh hno kayawtnaw, leng kamawngnaw, Arabia siangpahrangnaw ukkung bawinaw koehoi e a poe e hai ao rah.
aside from what was brought to him by the men who were over the tributes, and by the merchants, and by those selling every kind of small item, and by all the kings of Arabia, and by the rulers of the land.
16 Solomon ni kalen e saiphei 200 touh dei e sui hoi a sak nah, buet touh hanelah sui shekel 600 touh a hno.
Also, king Solomon made two hundred large shields from the purest gold. He dispensed six hundred shekels of gold for the layers of one shield.
17 Dei e sui saiphei 300 touh hai a sak. Saiphei buet touh dawk sui mina kathum touh, hotnaw hah siangpahrang ni Lebanon ratu thung e thing hoi a sak e im dawk a hruek.
And for the three hundred crescent-shaped shields of tested gold, there were three hundred minas of gold covering one shield. And the king placed these in the house of the forest of Lebanon.
18 Siangpahrang ni kasaino hoi bawitungkhung kalenpounge a sak teh, suitui hoi a pathoup.
Also, king Solomon made a great throne from ivory. And he clothed it with a great quantity of red gold.
19 Bawitungkhung dawk luennae lakhout 6 touh ao teh, a hnuklah a kâkalup. Bawitungkhung avangvanglah kut toungnae ao teh, kut toungnae teng vah sendek kahni touh a kangdue.
The throne had six steps, and the summit of the throne was rounded in the back section. And there were two hands, on one side and the other, holding the seat. And two lions were standing beside each hand,
20 Lakhout coung taruk touh e a van vah, avangvanglah sendek 12 touh a kangdue. Hot patetlae tungkhung teh apie ram dawk hai awm hoeh.
with twelve little lions standing upon the six steps, on one side and the other. No similar work has been made, ever in any kingdom.
21 Solomon ni a neinae manang pueng hoi Lebanon ratu thung e thing hoi sak e im dawk a hno e manang pueng teh, ngun manang nahoeh, suimanang seng doeh. Solomon se nah ngun hah banglahai noutna awh hoeh.
Moreover, all the vessels from which king Solomon would drink were of gold. And all the items in the house of the forest of Lebanon were of the purest gold. There was no silver, nor was any accounting made of silver in the days of Solomon.
22 Siangpahrang ni tui dawk hno a yonae long hoi Khiram siangpahrang e long hoi reirei a patoun. Kum thum touh dawk vai touh Tarshish e long teh bout a ban. Sui, ngun, kasaino, kalainaw, awtawnaw a phu awh.
For the navy of the king, once every three years, went with the navy of Hiram by sea to Tarshish, bringing from there gold, and silver, and elephant tusks, and primates, and peacocks.
23 Siangpahrang Solomon ni talai van e siangpahrang pueng hah bawinae koe lahoi lungangnae koe lah koung a tapuet.
And so, king Solomon was magnified above all the kings of the earth in riches and in wisdom.
24 Solomon e a lungthin dawk Cathut ni a hruek pouh e lungangnae hah Talai tami pueng ni a thai awh hanelah Solomon koe ouk a tho awh.
And all the earth desired to see the face of Solomon, so as to hear his wisdom, which God had granted to his heart.
25 Lengkaleng ka tho e naw ni suimanang, ngunmanang, khohna, tarantuknae puengcang, hmuitui phunkuep, marang, la naw hah kum tangkuem a poe awh.
And each one brought him gifts, vessels of silver and of gold, clothing and weapons of war, as well as aromatics, and horses, and mules, throughout each year.
26 Solomon ni rangleng hoi marang kâcuinaw a pâkhueng teh, rangleng 1,400 touh hoi marangransanaw 12,000 touh a tawn. Hotnaw teh, rangleng a hrueknae khonaw hoi Jerusalem siangpahrang a onae koe ao sak awh.
And Solomon gathered together the chariots and horsemen. And he had one thousand four hundred chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen. And he placed them in the walled cities, and with the king at Jerusalem.
27 Siangpahrang ni Jerusalem kho dawk ngun hah talung patetlah thoseh, Sidar thingnaw hah a yawn dawk e thailahei kungnaw patetlah thoseh apap sak.
And he caused silver to be as abundant in Jerusalem as stones, and he supplied a multitude of cedars like the sycamores that grow in the plains.
28 Solomon ni a tawn e marangnaw teh, Izip ram, Keveh kho lahoi a thokhai e naw doeh. Siangpahrang e hno kayawtnaw ni Keveh kho lahoi a thokhai awh teh tangka hoi a ran awh e doeh.
And horses were brought for Solomon from Egypt and from Kue. For the merchants of the king were buying these from Kue. And they paid out the established price.
29 Izip ram lahoi leng buet touh hah ngun shekel 600 hoi thoseh, marang buet touh hah ngun shekel 150 hoi thoseh pou a yo awh. Hot patetlah Hit siangpahrang hoi Siria siangpahrangnaw koe Izip marang hoi lengnaw ouk a kâthungkhai.
Now a four-horse chariot would be sent from Egypt for six hundred shekels of silver, and a horse for one hundred and fifty. And in this manner, all the kings of the Hittites and of Syria were selling horses.
