20 Judah and Israel were innumerable, like the sand of the sea in multitude: eating and drinking, and rejoicing.
Juda og Israel vare mange som Sand, der er ved Havet i Mangfoldighed; de aade og drak og vare glade.
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.
Og Salomo var en Herre over alle Rigerne fra Floden til Filisternes Land og indtil Ægyptens Landemærke; de bragte ham Skænk og tjente Salomo alle hans Livsdage.
22 And the provisions of Solomon, for each day, were thirty cor of fine wheat flour, and sixty cor of meal,
Og den Mad, der gik med for Salomo til hver Dag, var tredive Kor fint Mel og tresindstyve Kor Hvedemel;
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.

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.

26 And Solomon had forty thousand stalls of chariot horses, and twelve thousand riding horses.
Salomo havde og fyrretyve Tusinde Stalde til sine Vognheste og tolv Tusinde Ryttere.
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.
Og disse Befalingsmænd forsynede Kong Salomo og hver den, som nærmede sig til Kong Salomos Bord, hver i sin Maaned; de lode ikke fattes paa noget.
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.
Og Byg og Straa til Kørehestene og til Ridehestene førte de hen til det Sted, hvor det skulde være, hver efter Anvisningen.
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.
Og Gud gav Salomo Visdom og saare megen Indsigt og en omfattende Forstand, som Sand, der er ved Havets Bred.
30 And the wisdom of Solomon surpassed the wisdom of all the East, and of the Egyptians.
Og Salomos Visdom var større end alle Østerlændernes Visdom og end alle Ægypternes Visdom.
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.

32 Solomon also spoke three thousand parables. And his verses were one thousand and five.
Og han fremsatte tre Tusinde Ordsprog, og hans Sange vare Tusinde og fem.
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.
Og han talede om Træerne fra Cederen, som er paa Libanon, og indtil Isopen, som vokser ud af Væggen; og han talede om Dyrene og om Fuglene og om krybende Dyr og om Fiskene.
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.
Og man kom fra alle Folk for at høre Salomos Visdom, fra alle Konger paa Jorden, som havde hørt om hans Visdom.
