1 Kings 10
1 Now when the queen of Sheba heard about the fame of Solomon concerning the name of the LORD, she came to test him with difficult questions.
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.
2 She arrived in Jerusalem with a very large caravan—with camels bearing spices, gold in great abundance, and precious stones. So she came to Solomon and spoke to him all that was on her mind.
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.
3 And Solomon answered all her questions; nothing was too difficult for the king to explain.
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.
4 When the queen of Sheba saw all the wisdom of Solomon, the palace he had built,
Sheba siagpahrangnu ni Solomon siangpahrang e lungangnae pueng thoseh, im a sak e thoseh,
5 the food at his table, the seating of his servants, the service and attire of his attendants and cupbearers, and the burnt offerings he presented at the house of the LORD, it took her breath away.
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.
6 She said to the king, “The report I heard in my own country about your words and wisdom is true.
Napui ni siangpahrang koevah, na lungangnae kamthang ka ram koehoi ka thai e heh atang bokheiyah.
7 But I did not believe these things until I came and saw with my own eyes. Indeed, not even half was told to me. Your wisdom and prosperity have far exceeded the report I heard.
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.
8 How blessed are your men! How blessed are these servants of yours who stand continually before you and hear your wisdom!
Na hmalah pou kaawm awh niteh, lungangnae ka thai e na taminaw hoi na sannaw teh a yawhawi awh.
9 Blessed be the LORD your God, who has delighted in you to set you on the throne of Israel. Because of the LORD’s eternal love for Israel, He has made you king to carry out justice and righteousness.”
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.
10 Then she gave the king 120 talents of gold, a great quantity of spices, and precious stones. Never again was such an abundance of spices brought in as those the queen of Sheba gave to King Solomon.
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.
11 (The fleet of Hiram that brought gold from Ophir also brought from Ophir a great cargo of almug wood and precious stones.
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.
12 The king made the almug wood into steps for the house of the LORD and for the king’s palace, and into lyres and harps for the singers. Never before had such almug wood been brought in, nor has such been seen to this day.)
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.
13 King Solomon gave the queen of Sheba all she desired—whatever she asked—besides what he had given her out of his royal bounty. Then she left and returned to her own country, along with her servants.
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.
14 The weight of gold that came to Solomon each year was 666 talents,
Solomon koe kum touh dawk e sui ka kâen e a khing talen 666 touh a pha.
15 not including the revenue from the merchants, traders, and all the Arabian kings and governors of the land.
Hetheh hno kayawtnaw, leng kamawngnaw, Arabia siangpahrangnaw ukkung bawinaw koehoi e a poe e hai ao rah.
16 King Solomon made two hundred large shields of hammered gold; six hundred shekels of gold went into each shield.
Solomon ni kalen e saiphei 200 touh dei e sui hoi a sak nah, buet touh hanelah sui shekel 600 touh a hno.
17 He also made three hundred small shields of hammered gold; three minas of gold went into each shield. And the king put them in the House of the Forest of Lebanon.
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.
18 Additionally, the king made a great throne of ivory and overlaid it with pure gold.
Siangpahrang ni kasaino hoi bawitungkhung kalenpounge a sak teh, suitui hoi a pathoup.
19 The throne had six steps, and its back had a rounded top. There were armrests on both sides of the seat, with a lion standing beside each armrest.
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.
20 Twelve lions stood on the six steps, one at either end of each step. Nothing like this had ever been made for any kingdom.
Lakhout coung taruk touh e a van vah, avangvanglah sendek 12 touh a kangdue. Hot patetlae tungkhung teh apie ram dawk hai awm hoeh.
21 All King Solomon’s drinking cups were gold, and all the utensils of the House of the Forest of Lebanon were pure gold. There was no silver, because it was accounted as nothing in the days of Solomon.
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.
22 For the king had the ships of Tarshish at sea with Hiram’s fleet, and once every three years the ships of Tarshish would arrive bearing gold, silver, ivory, apes, and peacocks.
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.
23 So King Solomon surpassed all the kings of the earth in riches and wisdom.
Siangpahrang Solomon ni talai van e siangpahrang pueng hah bawinae koe lahoi lungangnae koe lah koung a tapuet.
24 The whole world sought an audience with Solomon to hear the wisdom that God had put in his heart.
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.
25 Year after year, each visitor would bring his tribute: articles of silver and gold, clothing, weapons, spices, horses, and mules.
Lengkaleng ka tho e naw ni suimanang, ngunmanang, khohna, tarantuknae puengcang, hmuitui phunkuep, marang, la naw hah kum tangkuem a poe awh.
26 Solomon accumulated 1,400 chariots and 12,000 horses, which he stationed in the chariot cities and also with him in Jerusalem.
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.
27 The king made silver as common in Jerusalem as stones, and cedar as abundant as sycamore in the foothills.
Siangpahrang ni Jerusalem kho dawk ngun hah talung patetlah thoseh, Sidar thingnaw hah a yawn dawk e thailahei kungnaw patetlah thoseh apap sak.
28 Solomon’s horses were imported from Egypt and Kue; the royal merchants purchased them from Kue.
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.
29 A chariot could be imported from Egypt for six hundred shekels of silver, and a horse for a hundred and fifty. Likewise, they exported them to all the kings of the Hittites and to the kings of Aram.
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.
