7 And Solomon had twelve commanders over all of Israel, who offered yearly provisions for the king and his house. For each was ministering the necessities, by each month of the year.
Solomon taegah Israel pum yueng la aka pai rhoek he hlai nit lo tih manghai neh a imkhui te a cangbam uh. Cangbam ham te kum khat khui hla khat ah pakhat a om pah.

13 Bengeber, in Ramoth Gilead, who had the town of Jair, the son of Manasseh, in Gilead; the same was first in the entire region of Argob, which is in Bashan, sixty great cities with walls that had bronze bars;

20 Judah and Israel were innumerable, like the sand of the sea in multitude: eating and drinking, and rejoicing.
Judah neh Israel he a hlangmi lamtah tuipuei kah laivin bangla ping uh tih a caak, a ok neh a kohoe.
21 Now Solomon had, in his dominion, all the kingdoms, from the river to the land of the Philistines, even to the border of Egypt. And they offered gifts to him, and they served him all the days of his life.
Solomon long he Philisti khohmuen kah tuiva lamloh Egypt khorhi duela ram tom te a taemrhai. Khocang te a khuen uh tih a hing tue khuiah Solomon taengah thotat uh.
22 And the provisions of Solomon, for each day, were thirty cor of fine wheat flour, and sixty cor of meal,
Te vaengah hnin at dongkah Solomon kah a caak he, vaidam kore sawmthum neh buh kore sawmrhuk lo.
23 ten fattened oxen, and twenty oxen from the pastures, and one hundred rams, aside from the venison of stags, roe deer, and gazelles, and fattened poultry.
Saelhung pumlen pumrha, saelhung luemdawn pumkul, boiva yakhat, rhangrhaeh neh kirhang khaw, sayuk neh vathawt a thapaduek khaw om pueng.
24 For he had obtained the entire region which was beyond the river, from Tiphsah as far as Gaza, and all the kings of those regions. And he had peace on every side all around.
Tiphsah lamloh tuiva rhalvangan boeih neh Gaza hil, tuiva rhalvangan kah manghai boeih te khaw a taemrhai. Te vaengah rhoepnah te anih ham kaepvai kah a rhalvangan boeih ah om.
25 And so, Judah and Israel were living without any fear, each one under his own vine and under his own fig tree, from Dan as far as Beersheba, during all the days of Solomon.
Judah neh Israel kah hlang he Solomon tue khuiah tah Dan lamloh Beersheba hil amah misur hmui neh a thaibu hmuiah ngaikhuek la kho a sak.
26 And Solomon had forty thousand stalls of chariot horses, and twelve thousand riding horses.
Solomon taengah a ngoldoelh ham marhang im thawng sawmli neh marhang caem thawng hlai nit om.
27 And the above-stated commanders of the king nourished these. And they also offered the necessities for the table of king Solomon, with immense diligence, each in his time.
Te rhoek loh manghai Solomon te a cangbam uh tih a pai puei uh. Amah hla khat ah hlang pakhat neh manghai Solomon kah caboei taengla aka mop boeih khaw hnopai neh mueh uh pawh.
28 Also, they brought barley and straw for the horses and beasts of burden, to the place where the king was, just as it was appointed to them.
Marhang ham neh leng marhang ham cangtun neh cangkong khaw, hlang loh amah kah hamsum bangla a om nah hmuen la pahoi a thak uh coeng.
29 And God gave wisdom to Solomon, and an exceedingly great prudence, and a spacious heart, like the sand which is on the shore of the sea.
Pathen loh Solomon te cueihnah a paek dongah a lungcuei khaw muep ping. Te vaengah lungbuei te tuipuei tuikaeng kah laivin bangla a daang a ka pah.
30 And the wisdom of Solomon surpassed the wisdom of all the East, and of the Egyptians.
Solomon kah cueihnah tah khothoeng ca boeih kah cueihnah lakah khaw, Egypt kah cueihnah cungkuem lakah khaw yet.
31 And he was wiser than all men: wiser than Ethan, the Ezrahite, and Heman, and Calcol, and Darda, the sons of Mahol. And he was renowned in all the nations on every side.
Hlang boeih lakah khaw, Mahol koca rhoek Ethan, Ezrakhi, Heman neh Khalkol, Darda lakah khaw cueih. Te dongah khotaeng namtom boeih taengah khaw a ming om.
32 Solomon also spoke three thousand parables. And his verses were one thousand and five.
thawng thum a thui tih a laa khaw thawng khat panga om.
33 And he discoursed about trees, from the cedar which is in Lebanon, to the hyssop which grows out from the wall. And he explained about beasts, and birds, and reptiles, and fish.
Thingkung te Lebanon kah lamphai lamloh pangbueng lamkah aka poe pumpiding hil khaw a thui. Rhamsa kawng neh vaa kawng khaw, rhulcai kawng neh nga kawng khaw a thui.
34 And they came from all the peoples in order to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and from all the kings of the earth, who were hearing about his wisdom.
A cueihnah te a yaak uh vaengah pilnam cungkuem lamlong khaw, diklai manghai boeih lamlong khaw Solomon kah cueihnah te hnatun ham a paan uh.
