20 Judah and Israel were numerous as the sand which is by the sea in multitude, eating and drinking and making merry.
Bato ya Yuda mpe ya Isalaele bazalaki ebele lokola zelo ya libongo ya ebale monene; bazalaki kolia, komela mpe bazalaki na esengo.
21 Solomon ruled over all the kingdoms from the River to the land of the Philistines, and to the border of Egypt. They brought tribute and served Solomon all the days of his life.
Salomo azalaki kokonza bikolo wana nyonso, kobanda na ebale Efrate kino na mokili ya bato ya Filisitia, mpe kino koleka mondelo ya Ejipito. Na bomoi na ye mobimba, bikolo yango ezalaki kofuta mpako epai na ye mpe ezalaki na se ya bokonzi na ye.
22 Solomon’s provision for one day was thirty cors of fine flour, sixty measures of meal,
Tala bilei ya Salomo ya mokolo na mokolo: bakilo nkoto libwa ya semule mpe bakilo nkoto zomi na mwambe ya farine,
23 ten head of fat cattle, twenty head of cattle out of the pastures, and one hundred sheep, in addition to deer, gazelles, roebucks, and fattened fowl.
bangombe zomi ya mafuta, bangombe tuku mibale ya esobe, bameme mpe bantaba nkama moko, bakisa bamboloko, bambuli, bankayi mpe bandeke ya mafuta.
24 For he had dominion over all on this side the River, from Tiphsah even to Gaza, over all the kings on this side the River; and he had peace on all sides around him.
Azalaki kokonza bikolo nyonso na ngambo ya weste ya Efrate, kobanda na Tifisa kino na Gaza, elongo na bakonzi nyonso ya ngambo yango; mpe azalaki na kimia elongo na bikolo nyonso ya zingazinga.
25 Judah and Israel lived safely, every man under his vine and under his fig tree, from Dan even to Beersheba, all the days of Solomon.
Na mikolo nyonso ya bomoi ya Salomo, bato ya Yuda mpe ya Isalaele, kobanda na Dani kino na Beri-Sheba, bazalaki na kimia, moto na moto azalaki kovanda na se ya banzete na ye ya vino mpe ya figi.
26 Solomon had forty thousand stalls of horses for his chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen.
Salomo azalaki na mapango nkoto minei ya bampunda mpe basoda oyo batambolaka likolo ya bampunda, nkoto zomi na mibale.
27 Those officers provided food for King Solomon, and for all who came to King Solomon’s table, every man in his month. They let nothing be lacking.
Bayangeli ya bituka bazalaki komema bilei, moto na moto na sanza na ye, mpo na mokonzi Salomo mpe mpo na bato nyonso oyo bazalaki kolia na mesa ya mokonzi; bazalaki kosala ete eloko moko te ezanga.
28 They also brought barley and straw for the horses and swift steeds to the place where the officers were, each man according to his duty.
Bazalaki mpe komema bambuma ya orje mpe matiti mpo na bampunda, ndenge mobateli biloko ya mokonzi azalaki kokatela bango.
29 God gave Solomon abundant wisdom, understanding, and breadth of mind like the sand that is on the seashore.
Nzambe apesaki Salomo bwanya, boyebi mingi, mpe mayele ya kososola makambo mingi, ata ezali ebele lokola zelo ya libongo ya ebale monene.
30 Solomon’s wisdom excelled the wisdom of all the children of the east and all the wisdom of Egypt.
Bwanya ya Salomo ezalaki makasi koleka bwanya ya bato nyonso ya ngambo ya este mpe ya Ejipito.
31 For he was wiser than all men—wiser than Ethan the Ezrahite, Heman, Calcol, and Darda, the sons of Mahol; and his fame was in all the nations all around.
Azalaki na bwanya koleka bato nyonso; koleka ata Etani, moto ya Ezera; Emani, Kalikoli mpe Darida, bana mibali ya Maoli. Boye, sango na ye epanzanaki kati na bikolo nyonso ya zingazinga.
32 He spoke three thousand proverbs, and his songs numbered one thousand five.
Asalaki masese nkoto misato mpe banzembo nkoto moko na mitano.
33 He spoke of trees, from the cedar that is in Lebanon even to the hyssop that grows out of the wall; he also spoke of animals, of birds, of creeping things, and of fish.
Alobaki na tina na banzete, kobanda na nzete ya sedele ya Libani kino na nzete ya izope oyo ebimaka na mir; azalaki mpe koloba na tina na banyama mpe bandeke, na tina na bikelamu oyo etambolaka na libumu mpe na tina na bambisi ya mayi.
34 People of all nations came to hear the wisdom of Solomon, sent by all kings of the earth who had heard of his wisdom.
Bakonzi ya bikolo nyonso ya mokili, oyo bazalaki koyoka sango ya bwanya ya Salomo, bazalaki kotinda bato, wuta na bikolo na bango, mpo na kokende koyoka bwanya na ye.
