1 Kings 4
1 So King Solomon ruled over Israel,
Solomon el tokosra lun Israel nufon,
2 and these were his chief officials: Azariah son of Zadok was the priest;
ac mwet wal fulat yal pa: Mwet tol: Azariah, wen natul Zadok
3 Elihoreph and Ahijah, the sons of Shisha, were secretaries; Jehoshaphat son of Ahilud was the recorder;

Mwet kol fulat lun un mwet mweun: Benaiah, wen natul Jehoiada Mwet tol: Zadok ac Abiathar
5 Azariah son of Nathan was in charge of the governors; Zabud son of Nathan was a priest and adviser to the king;
Leum fin mwet suksuk ke kais sie acn: Azariah, wen natul Nathan Mwet kasru fulat nu sin tokosra: mwet tol Zabud, wen natul Nathan
6 Ahishar was in charge of the palace; and Adoniram son of Abda was in charge of the forced labor.
Mwet kol lun mwet kulansap ke inkul fulat: Ahishar Mwet kol fin mwet kumakinyuk: Adoniram, wen natul Abda
7 Solomon had twelve governors over all Israel to provide food for the king and his household. Each one would arrange provisions for one month of the year,
Solomon el srisrngiya mwet suksuk singoul luo fin acn Israel nufon. Ma kunalos in fosrngakunma mwe mongo nu inkul sin tokosra liki acn selos — kais mwet suksuk karingin malem se ke yac se.
8 and these were their names: Ben-hur in the hill country of Ephraim;
Pa inge inelos ac acn elos karingin: Benhur: infulan eol Ephraim
9 Ben-deker in Makaz, in Shaalbim, in Beth-shemesh, and in Elon-beth-hanan;
Bendeker: siti lun Makaz, Shaalbim, Beth Shemesh, Elon, ac Beth Hanan
10 Ben-hesed in Arubboth (Socoh and all the land of Hepher belonged to him);
Benhesed: siti lun Arubboth, ac Socoh ac acn Hepher nufon
11 Ben-abinadab in Naphath-dor (Taphath, a daughter of Solomon, was his wife);
Benabinadab, su payuk sin Taphath, acn se natul Solomon: acn Dor nufon
12 Baana son of Ahilud in Taanach, in Megiddo, and in all of Beth-shean next to Zarethan below Jezreel, from Beth-shean to Abel-meholah and on past Jokmeam;
Baana, wen natul Ahilud: siti Taanach ac Megiddo, ac acn nukewa apkuran nu Beth Shan ma apkuran nu ke siti srisrik Zarethan, eir in siti srisrik Jezreel, fahla nwe ke siti Abel Meholah ac Jokmeam
13 Ben-geber in Ramoth-gilead (the villages of Jair son of Manasseh in Gilead belonged to him, as well as the region of Argob in Bashan with its sixty great cities with walls and bronze bars);
Bengeber: siti Ramoth in acn Gilead, ac acn srisrik nukewa in acn Gilead ma lun sou lal Jair, su ma in fwil natul Manasseh, ac acn Argob in acn Bashan. Oasr siti lulap onngoul, ac kewana potyak, ac mwe sruh ke mutunpot uh orekla ke osra bronze

18 Shimei son of Ela in Benjamin;
Shimei, wen natul Ela: acn lal Benjamin
19 Geber son of Uri in the land of Gilead, including the territories of Sihon king of the Amorites and of Og king of Bashan. There was also one governor in the land of Judah.
Geber, wen natul Uri: acn Gilead, facl se ma Sihon (tokosra lun mwet Amor) ac Og (tokosra lun Bashan) eltal leumi. Sayen mwet singoul luo inge, oasr sie mwet suksuk fulat solla in karingin facl sac nufon.
20 The people of Judah and Israel were as numerous as the sand on the seashore, and they were eating and drinking and rejoicing.
Pusiyen mwet Judah ac Israel oana puk weacn uh. Elos mongo ac nim ac engan.
21 And Solomon reigned over all the kingdoms from the Euphrates to the land of the Philistines, as far as the border of Egypt. These kingdoms offered tribute and served Solomon all the days of his life.
Tokosrai lal Solomon sisani facl nukewa e ke Infacl Euphrates me nwe ke acn Philistia, ac masrol nu Egypt. Mwet inge nukewa moli tax nu sel, ac orekma nu sel ke lusen moul lal nufon.
22 Solomon’s provisions for a single day were thirty cors of fine flour, sixty cors of meal,
Enenu lal Solomon nu inkul sin tokosra ke kais sie len pa: pak in flao srik kosra siofok lumngaul, ac pak in flao yohk kosra tolfoko,
23 ten fat oxen, twenty range oxen, and a hundred sheep, as well as deer, gazelles, roebucks, and fattened poultry.
cow muta in kalkal singoul, ac cow forfor saya longoul, ac sheep siofok, sayen na kosro deer, gazelle, roebuck, ac won.
24 For Solomon had dominion over everything west of the Euphrates —over all the kingdoms from Tiphsah to Gaza—and he had peace on all sides.
Solomon el leumi facl nukewa roto in Infacl Euphrates, liki acn Tiphsah ke infacl Euphrates, nwe ke siti Gaza nu roto. Tokosra nukewa roto in Infacl Euphrates elos orekma nu sel, ac oasr misla ke facl nukewa ma oan raunella.
25 Throughout the days of Solomon, Judah and Israel dwelt securely from Dan to Beersheba, each man under his own vine and his own fig tree.
Ke lusen moul lal Solomon, mwet nukewa in acn Judah ac Israel elos mutana in misla ac wangin mwe fosrnga. Kais sie sou oasr ima in grape ac sak fig sunalos.
26 Solomon had 4,000 stalls for his chariot horses and 12,000 horses.
Oasr angngaul tausin nien muta lun horse in chariot natul Solomon, ac singoul luo tausin horse in mweun natul.
27 Each month the governors in turn provided food for King Solomon and all who came to his table. They saw to it that nothing was lacking.
Mwet suksuk singoul luo lal inge, elos akoo mwe mongo nun Tokosra Solomon ac mwet welul ke tepu lal, kais sie mwet ke malem lal. Elos fosrngakin mwe enenu nukewa.
28 Each one also brought to the required place their quotas of barley and straw for the chariot horses and other horses.
Kais sie mwet suksuk ac srukak pac ma kunal ke barley ac mah nu yen ma eneneyuk we. Ma inge ma nun horse ac kosro saya ma orekmakinyuk.
29 And God gave Solomon wisdom, exceedingly deep insight, and understanding beyond measure, like the sand on the seashore.
God El sang nu sel Solomon lalmwetmet, ac lemlem, ac etauk yoklana — alukela ma ku in srikeyuki.
30 Solomon’s wisdom was greater than that of all the men of the East, greater than all the wisdom of Egypt.
Ouinge Solomon el lalmwetmet liki mwet lalmwetmet lun acn kutulap, oayapa mwet lalmwetmet lun Egypt.
31 He was wiser than all men—wiser than Ethan the Ezrahite, and wiser than Heman, Calcol, and Darda, the sons of Mahol. And his fame spread throughout the surrounding nations.
El lalmwetmet liki mwet nukewa: el lalmwetmet lukel Ethan mwet Ezrah, ac Heman, Calcol, ac Darda, wen tolu natul Mahol. Pweng kacl fahsrelik nu in facl nukewa ma oan apkuran nu we.
32 Solomon composed three thousand proverbs, and his songs numbered a thousand and five.
El orala soakas tolu tausin, ac kinala on pus liki sie tausin.
33 He spoke of trees, from the cedar in Lebanon to the hyssop growing in the wall, and he taught about animals, birds, reptiles, and fish.
El sramsram pac ke sak, ac mwe yokyok, mutawauk ke sak cedar lun Lebanon nwe ke sak hyssop su kap pe pot uh; ac el sramsram pac ke kosro, won, wet lulap, ac ik uh.
34 So men of all nations came to listen to Solomon’s wisdom, sent by all the kings of the earth, who had heard of his wisdom.
Tokosra nukewa fin faclu lohng ke lalmwetmet lal inge, ac elos supwala mwet in lohng sramsram lalmwetmet lal.
