1 Kings 10
1 Now the queen of Sheba, hearing great things of Solomon, came to put his wisdom to the test with hard questions.
Mgbe eze nwanyị Sheba nụrụ akụkọ Solomọn, na ịdị na mma nke dị nʼetiti ya na Onyenwe anyị, ọ bịara ka o were ọtụtụ ajụjụ siri ike nwalee Solomọn.
2 And she came to Jerusalem with a very great train, with camels weighted down with spices, and stores of gold and jewels: and when she came to Solomon she had talk with him of everything in her mind.
Ọ bịarutere Jerusalem, ya na ọtụtụ ndị ozi nʼebe ha bara ụba, ndị so ya, tinyere ọtụtụ ịnyịnya kamel ndị bu ụda dị iche iche, ọtụtụ ọlaedo na nkume dị oke ọnụahịa dị iche iche. Ọ bịakwutere Solomọn, ya na ya kparịtara ụka banyere ihe niile nke dị ya nʼobi.
3 And Solomon gave her answers to all her questions; there was no secret which the king did not make clear to her.
Solomọn zara ya ajụjụ ya niile; ọ dịkwaghị ihe siiri eze ike ịkọwara ya.
4 And when the queen of Sheba had seen all the wisdom of Solomon, and the house which he had made,
Mgbe eze nwanyị Sheba hụrụ amamihe niile nke Solomọn, hụkwa ụlọeze o wuru,
5 And the food at his table, and all his servants seated there, and those who were waiting on him in their places, and their robes, and his wine-servants, and the burned offerings which he made in the house of the Lord, there was no more spirit in her.
na ihe oriri a na-adọkwasị nʼelu tebul ya, usoro ọnọdụ nke ndịisi ọchịchị ya, na ndị guzo na-ejere ya ozi nʼuwe ha yi, onye na-ebu iko ihe ọṅụṅụ ya, na aja nsure ọkụ niile ọ na-achụ nʼụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị, ọ dịkwaghị ihe ọzọ ọ maara ọ ga-eme, maọbụ kwuo.
6 And she said to the king, The account which was given to me in my country of your acts and your wisdom was true.
Ọ sịrị eze, “Akụkọ niile m nọ nʼala m nụ banyere ihe niile ị rụpụtara na amamihe gị bụ eziokwu.
7 But I had no faith in what was said about you, till I came and saw for myself; and now I see that it was not half the story; your wisdom and your wealth are much greater than they said.
Ma ekwenyeghị m akụkọ ndị a tutu ruo mgbe m bịara jiri anya m abụọ hụ ha. Nʼezie, ihe m nụrụ erughị ọkara; nʼamamihe nakwa nʼịba ụba gị, ị tụkwasịla ihe nʼakụkọ m nụrụ.
8 Happy are your wives, happy are these your servants whose place is ever before you, hearing your words of wisdom.
Lee, ụdị ọṅụ ndị gị na-enwe. Lee, ụdị ọṅụ nke ndị ozi na-enwe, bụ ndị na-eguzo nʼihu gị mgbe niile na-anụ okwu amamihe gị.
9 May the Lord your God be praised, whose pleasure it was to put you on the seat of the kingdom of Israel; because the Lord's love for Israel is eternal, he has made you king, to be their judge in righteousness.
Ngọzị dịrị Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị, onye nwere mmasị nʼebe ị nọ, o debere gị nʼocheeze Izrel. Nʼihi ịhụnanya nke Onyenwe anyị na-adị ruo mgbe ebighị ebi nʼebe Izrel nọ, o meele gị eze, ka ị debe ikpe ziri ezi na ezi omume.”
10 And she gave the king a hundred and twenty talents of gold, and a great store of spices and jewels: never again was such a wealth of spices seen as that which the queen of Sheba gave King Solomon.
O nyere Solomọn onyinye ọlaedo ịdị arọ ya dị puku kilogram anọ, nyekwa ya ọtụtụ ụda na-esi isi ụtọ dị iche iche, na ọtụtụ nkume dị oke ọnụahịa. O nwebeghị oge ọzọ ewebatara ọtụtụ ụda na-esi isi ụtọ dịka ndị ahụ eze nwanyị Sheba nyere eze Solomọn.
11 And the sea-force of Hiram, in addition to gold from Ophir, came back with much sandal-wood and jewels.
(Ọzọkwa, ọtụtụ ụgbọ mmiri nke eze Hiram bubatara ọlaedo site nʼỌfịa bulatara Solomọn. Ha sitekwara nʼebe ahụ bute osisi almụg nʼebe ọ bara ụba, na ọtụtụ nkume dị oke ọnụahịa dị iche iche.
12 And from the sandal-wood the king made pillars for the house of the Lord, and for the king's house, and instruments of music for the makers of melody: never has such sandal-wood been seen to this day.
Eze ji osisi almụg ndị a wuo ogidi ndabere dị nʼụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị na nke ụlọeze. O jikwa ya meere ndị na-abụ abụ ụbọ akwara na une. Ọ dịbeghị mgbe ọbụla ahụrụ maọbụ tụbata osisi almụg ha otu a site nʼụbọchị ahụ ruo taa.)
13 And King Solomon gave the queen of Sheba all her desire, whatever she made request for, in addition to what he gave her freely from the impulse of his heart. So she went back to her country, she and her servants.
Eze Solomọn nyekwara eze nwanyị Sheba ihe niile ọ chọrọ na ihe niile bụ nke ọ rịọrọ, na-agụnyeghị onyinye niile Solomọn nyere ya dịka eze ọ bụ. Emesịa, ọ hapụrụ laghachi nʼala nke aka ya, ya na ndị na-ejere ya ozi.
14 Now the weight of gold which came to Solomon in one year was six hundred and sixty-six talents;
Ọtụtụ ịdị arọ nke ọlaedo Solomọn na-enweta kwa afọ bụ puku kilogram iri abụọ na atọ,
15 In addition to what came to him from the business of the traders, and from all the kings of the Arabians, and from the rulers of the country.
na-agụnyeghị uru nke na-esi nʼaka ndị na-atụ mgbereahịa na ndị na-azụ ahịa na nke sitekwara nʼaka ndị eze Arebịa niile, nakwa nʼaka ndịisi na-achị obodo niile nke ala ahụ.
16 And Solomon made two hundred body-covers of hammered gold, every one having six hundred shekels of gold in it.
Eze Solomọn kpụrụ narị ọta ọlaedo ukwu abụọ site nʼọlaedo etipịara etipịa. Ọ bụ ọlaedo nke ịdị arọ ya ruru kilogram isii na ụma itoolu ka eji kpụọ ọta ọbụla.
17 And he made three hundred smaller body-covers of hammered gold, with three pounds of gold in every cover: and the king put them in the house of the Woods of Lebanon.
Ọ kpụkwara narị ọta nta atọ, nke sitere na ọlaedo etipịara etipịa. Ọ bụ ọlaedo ịdị arọ ya ruru kilogram atọ na ọkara ka eji kpụọ ọta ọbụla. Eze debere ha nʼụlọeze nʼOke Ọhịa Lebanọn.
18 Then the king made a great ivory seat, plated with the best gold.
Eze mekwara ocheeze dị ukwu nke e ji ọdụ enyi na ọlaedo a nụchara anụcha machie.
19 There were six steps going up to it, and the top of it was round at the back, there were arms on the two sides of the seat, and two lions by the side of the arms;
Ocheeze ahụ nwere ihe nrigo isii, o nwere elu dị gburugburu nʼazụ ya. E nwere ebe ntụkwasị aka nʼakụkụ abụọ ya, nke nwere oyiyi ọdụm abụọ guzo nʼakụkụ nke ọbụla nʼime ha.
20 And twelve lions were placed on the one side and on the other side on the six steps: there was nothing like it in any kingdom.
Ọdụm iri na abụọ na-eguzo nʼelu ihe nrigo isii ahụ, otu nʼakụkụ isi abụọ nke ihe nrigo ọbụla. Ọ dịkwaghị alaeze ọzọ dị nke e mere ihe dị otu a nye.
21 And all King Solomon's drinking-vessels were of gold, and all the vessels of the house of the Woods of Lebanon were of the best gold; not one was of silver, for no one gave a thought to silver in the days of King Solomon.
Ihe niile Solomọn nwere nke e ji aṅụ ihe bụ ọlaedo ka e ji mee ha. Ngwongwo niile nke dị nʼime ụlọeze nʼOke Ọhịa Lebanọn bụkwa ọlaedo a nụchara anụcha ka e ji kpụọ ha. Ọ dịghị ihe e ji ọlaọcha kpụọ, nʼihi na-agụnyeghị ọlaọcha dịka ihe ọbụla nʼoge Solomọn.
22 For the king had Tarshish-ships at sea with the ships of Hiram; once every three years the Tarshish-ships came with gold and silver and ivory and monkeys and peacocks.
Eze nwere ọtụtụ ụgbọ mmiri e ji azụ ahịa nʼoke osimiri, tinyere ụgbọ nke Hiram. Otu ugbo nʼafọ atọ, ka ụgbọ mmiri ndị a na-alọta, buru ọlaedo, ọlaọcha na ọdụ enyi, enwe na adaka dị iche iche bata.
23 And King Solomon was greater than all the kings of the earth in wealth and in wisdom.
Eze Solomọn bara ụba nʼakụ, nwekwa amamihe karịa ndị eze niile dị nʼụwa.
24 And from all over the earth they came to see Solomon and to give ear to his wisdom, which God had put in his heart.
Ụwa niile na-abịa ịchọ ihu Solomọn ka ha nụta okwu amamihe nke Chineke tinyere nʼobi ya.
25 And everyone took with him an offering, vessels of silver and vessels of gold, and robes, and coats of metal, and spices, and horses, and beasts of transport, regularly year by year.
Onye ọbụla bịakwutere ya na-ebutere ya onyinye ịnata ihuọma, ya bụ ngwa ọlaọcha na ọlaedo, uwe dị iche iche, ngwa agha, ụda dị iche iche, ịnyịnya na ịnyịnya muul, nke a bụ kwa afọ, kwa afọ.
26 And Solomon got together war-carriages and horsemen; he had one thousand, four hundred carriages and twelve thousand horsemen, whom he kept, some in the carriage-towns and some with the king at Jerusalem.
Solomọn chịkọbara ọtụtụ ụgbọ agha na ịnyịnya dị iche iche. O nwere ụgbọ agha dị otu puku na narị anọ na ịnyịnya agha dị puku iri na abụọ nʼọnụọgụgụ, ndị o debere ụfọdụ nʼime ha nʼobodo ụgbọ agha ya ma ndị ọzọ dị na Jerusalem ebe ya onwe ya nọ.
27 And the king made silver as common as stones in Jerusalem and cedars like the sycamore-trees of the lowlands in number.
Eze mere ka ọlaọcha baa ụba dịka nkume efu na Jerusalem. O mekwara ka osisi sida dị ọtụtụ dịka osisi sikamọ nke dị nʼala ala ugwu dị iche iche.
28 And Solomon's horses came from Egypt and from Kue; the king's traders got them at a price from Kue.
A na-esite nʼIjipt nakwa ala Kue atụbatara Solomọn ịnyịnya. Ndị ahịa eze na-azụta ha site na Kue nʼọnụ ahịa a na-ere ha nʼoge ahụ.
29 A war-carriage might be got from Egypt for six hundred shekels of silver, and a horse for a hundred and fifty; they got them at the same rate for all the kings of the Hittites and the kings of Aram.
Ha sitere nʼIjipt tụbata otu ụgbọ agha nʼọnụ ahịa narị shekel ọlaọcha isii, jirikwa otu narị shekel na iri shekel ise zụta otu ịnyịnya. Ha zipụkwara ha nye ndị eze niile nke ndị Het na ndị Aram.
