2 Chronicles 9
1 Now when the queen of Sheba heard about the fame of Solomon, she came to test him with difficult questions. She arrived in Jerusalem with a very large caravan—with camels bearing spices, gold in abundance, and precious stones. So she came to Solomon and spoke with him about all that was on her mind.
Sa’ad da sarauniyar Sheba ta ji shahararr Solomon, sai ta zo Urushalima tă gwada shi da tambayoyi masu wuya. Ta iso tare da ayari mai girma, da raƙuma ɗauke da kayan yaji, zinariya mai yawa, da kuma duwatsu masu daraja, ta zo wurin Solomon ta kuma yi magana da shi game da dukan abin da yake zuciyarta.
2 And Solomon answered all her questions; nothing was too difficult for him to explain.
Solomon ya amsa dukan tambayoyinta; babu wani abin da ya yi masa wuya yă bayyana mata.
3 When the queen of Sheba saw the wisdom of Solomon, the palace he had built,
Sa’ad da sarauniyar Sheba ta ga hikimar Solomon da kuma fadan da ya gina,
4 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.
ta ga abincin da yake teburinsa, ta ga zaman fadawansa, bayi masu yin masa hidima cikin rigunansu, ta ga masu riƙe kwaf cikin rigunansu da kuma hadayun ƙonawar da ya yi a haikalin Ubangiji, sai mamaki ya kama ta.
5 She said to the king, “The report I heard in my own country about your words and wisdom is true.
Ta ce wa sarki, “Labarin da na ji a ƙasata game da nasarorinka da hikimarka, gaskiya ne.
6 But I did not believe the reports until I came and saw with my own eyes. Indeed, not half of the greatness of your wisdom was told to me. You have far exceeded the report I heard.
Amma ban gaskata abin da suka faɗa ba sai da na zo na kuma gani da idanuna. Tabbatacce, ko rabin girman hikimarka ba a faɗa mini ba, ka wuce labarin da na ji nesa ba kusa ba.
7 How blessed are your men! How blessed are these servants of yours who stand continually before you and hear your wisdom!
Abin farin ciki ne ga mutanenka! Abin farin ciki ne ga fadawanka, waɗanda suke cin gaba da tsayawa a gabanka suna kuma jin hikimarka!
8 Blessed be the LORD your God, who has delighted in you to set you on His throne to be king for the LORD your God. Because your God loved Israel enough to establish them forever, He has made you king over them to carry out justice and righteousness.”
Yabo ya tabbata ga Ubangiji Allahnka, wanda ya ji daɗi a cikinka ya sa ka a kan kujerar sarautarsa a matsayin sarki don ka yi mulkin domin Ubangiji Allahnka. Saboda ƙaunar Allahnka wa Isra’ila da kuma sha’awarsa na riƙe su har abada, ya naɗa ka sarki a bisansu, don ka yi adalci da kuma gaskiya.”
9 Then she gave the king 120 talents of gold, a great quantity of spices, and precious stones. There had never been such spices as those the queen of Sheba gave to King Solomon.
Sa’an nan ta ba sarki talenti 120 na zinariya, kayan yaji masu yawa, da kuma duwatsu masu daraja. Ba a taɓa kasance da irin kayan yaji mai yawa kamar waɗanda sarauniyar Sheba ta ba wa sarki Solomon ba.
10 (The servants of Hiram and of Solomon who brought gold from Ophir also brought algum wood and precious stones.
(Mutanen Hiram da mutanen Solomon suka kawo zinariya daga Ofir, suka kuma kawo gungumen algum da duwatsu masu daraja.
11 The king made the algum 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 anything like them been seen in the land of Judah.)
Sarki ya yi amfani da gungumen algum don matakalan haikalin Ubangiji da kuma na fadan sarki, ya kuma yi garayu da molaye don mawaƙa. Ba a taɓa gani irinsu a Yahuda ba.)
12 King Solomon gave the queen of Sheba all she desired—whatever she asked—far more than she had brought the king. Then she left and returned to her own country, along with her servants.
Sarki Solomon ya ba sarauniyar Sheba duk abin da take so da kuma ta nema; ya ba ta fiye da abin da ta kawo masa. Sa’an nan ta tashi ta koma ƙasarta tare da masu rufe mata baya.
13 The weight of gold that came to Solomon each year was 666 talents,
Nauyin zinariyar da Solomon yake karɓa shekara-shekara talenti 666 ne,
14 not including the revenue from the merchants and traders. And all the Arabian kings and governors of the land also brought gold and silver to Solomon.
ban da harajin da fatakai da’yan kasuwa suke biya. Haka kuma dukan sarakunan Arabiya da gwamnonin ƙasar suka kawo zinariya da azurfa wa Solomon.
15 King Solomon made two hundred large shields of hammered gold; six hundred shekels of hammered gold went into each shield.
Sarki Solomon ya yi manyan garkuwoyi ɗari biyu da zinariya; an yi kowane garkuwa da bekas ɗari shida na zinariya.
16 He also made three hundred small shields of hammered gold; three hundred shekels of gold went into each shield. And the king put them in the House of the Forest of Lebanon.
Ya kuma yi ƙanana garkuwoyi zinariya ɗari uku, da bekas ɗari uku na zinariya a kowanne. Sarki ya sa su a cikin Fadan da ake kira Kurmin Lebanon.
17 Additionally, the king made a great throne of ivory and overlaid it with pure gold.
Sai sarki ya yi wata kujerar sarauta mai girma da aka shafe ta da hauren giwa, aka kuma dalaye ta da zinariya zalla.
18 The throne had six steps, and a footstool of gold was attached to it. There were armrests on both sides of the seat, with a lion standing beside each armrest.
Kujerar tana da matakalai shida, da wurin sa ƙafa na zinariya haɗe da ita. A kowane gefen wurin zama, akwai wurin ajiye hannu, da zaki tsaye kusa da kowannensu.
19 Twelve lions stood on the six steps, one at either end of each step. Nothing like this had ever been made for any kingdom.
Zakoki goma sha biyu sun tsaya a kan matakalai shida, ɗaya a ƙarshen matakala guda. Ba a taɓa yin irin wannan abu don wata masarauta ba.
20 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.
Dukan kwaf na Sarki Solomon zinariya ne, kuma dukan kayayyakin gida a Fadan da ake kira Kurmin Lebanon zinariya ne zalla. Ba a yi wani abu da azurfa ba, domin ba a ɗauki azurfa a zamanin Solomon a bakin kome ba.
21 For the king had the ships of Tarshish that went with Hiram’s servants, and once every three years the ships of Tarshish would arrive bearing gold, silver, ivory, apes, and peacocks.
Sarki yana da jerin jiragen ruwa na kasuwanci waɗanda mutanen Hiram ne suke kula da su. Sau ɗaya kowace shekara uku sukan dawo ɗauke da zinariya, azurfa, hauren giwa, gogo da kuma birai.
22 So King Solomon surpassed all the kings of the earth in riches and wisdom.
Sarki Solomon ya fi arziki da hikima in aka kwatanta da dukan sauran sarakunan duniya.
23 All the kings of the earth sought an audience with Solomon to hear the wisdom that God had put in his heart.
Dukan sarakunan duniya sun nemi su sadu da Solomon don su ji hikimar da Allah ya sa a zuciyarsa.
24 Year after year, each visitor would bring his tribute: articles of silver and gold, clothing, weapons, spices, horses, and mules.
Shekara, shekara, duk wanda ya zo wurinsa yakan kawo kyauta, kayayyakin azurfa da na zinariya, da riguna, makamai da kayan yaji, da dawakai da kuma alfadarai.
25 Solomon had 4,000 stalls for horses and chariots, and 12,000 horses, which he stationed in the chariot cities and also with him in Jerusalem.
Solomon ya kasance da wuraren ajiye dawakai dubu huɗu don dawakai da kekunan yaƙi, yana da dawakai dubu goma sha biyu waɗanda ya ajiye a biranen kekunan yaƙi da kuma tare da shi a Urushalima.
26 He reigned over all the kings from the Euphrates to the land of the Philistines, as far as the border of Egypt.
Ya yi mulki bisa dukan sarakuna daga Kogi Yuferites zuwa ƙasar Filistiyawa, har zuwa iyakar Masar.
27 The king made silver as common in Jerusalem as stones, and cedar as abundant as sycamore in the foothills.
Sarki ya sa azurfa ta zama barkatai a Urushalima kamar duwatsu, al’ul kuma da yawa kamar itatuwan fir a gindin tsaunuka.
28 Solomon’s horses were imported from Egypt and from all the lands.
An sayo dawakan Solomon daga Masar da kuma daga dukan sauran ƙasashe.
29 As for the rest of the acts of Solomon, from beginning to end, are they not written in the Records of Nathan the Prophet, in the Prophecy of Ahijah the Shilonite, and in the Visions of Iddo the Seer concerning Jeroboam son of Nebat?
Game da sauran ayyukan mulkin Solomon, daga farko har zuwa ƙarshe, an rubuta su a cikin tarihin annabi Natan, cikin annabcin Ahiya mutumin Shilo da kuma cikin wahayin Iddo mai gani game da Yerobowam ɗan Nebat.
30 Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel forty years.
Solomon ya yi mulki a Urushalima a bisa dukan Isra’ila shekaru arba’in.
31 And Solomon rested with his fathers and was buried in the city of his father David. And his son Rehoboam reigned in his place.
Sa’an nan ya huta tare da kakanninsa, aka kuma binne shi cikin birnin Dawuda mahaifinsa. Rehobowam ɗansa kuwa ya gāje shi a matsayin sarki.
