2 Chronicles 9
1 Also, when the queen of Sheba had heard of the fame of Solomon, she came to Jerusalem, with great riches and with camels which were carrying aromatics, and very much gold, and precious gems, so that she might test him with enigmas. And when she had approached Solomon, she spoke to him all that was in her heart.
A LOHE ke alii wahine o Seba i ke kaulana o Solomona, hele mai ia i Ierusalema e hoao ia Solomona i na mea pohihihi, me ka huakai nui, me na kamelo e lawe ana i na mea ala, a me ke gula he nui, a me na pohaku makamae; a hiki kela io Solomona la, kamailio pu oia me ia i na mea a pau loa iloko o kona naau.
2 And Solomon explained for her all that she had proposed. And there was nothing that he did not make clear to her.
A hai aku o Solomona ia ia i na mea a pau loa ana i ninau ai; aohe mea i koe a Solomona i hai ole aku ai ia ia.
3 And after she saw these things, specifically, the wisdom of Solomon, and the house which he had built,
A ike ke alii wahine o Seba i ka naauao o Solomona, a me ka hale ana i kukulu ai,
4 indeed also the foods of his table, and the habitations of the servants, and the duties of his ministers, and their apparel, and also his cupbearers and their garments, and the victims which he was immolating in the house of the Lord, there was no longer any spirit in her, due to astonishment.
A me ka ai o kona papaaina, a me ka noho ana o kana poe kauwa, a me ke ku ana o kana poe lawelawe, a me ko lakou kahiko ana; a i ka poe lawe kiaha a me ko lakou kahiko ana, a me ke ala kahi i pii ai oia iluna i ka hale o Iehova; aole hanu i koe iloko ona.
5 And she said to the king: “The word is true, which I had heard in my own land, about your virtues and wisdom.
Olelo aku la ia i ke alii, He oiaio ka mea a'u i lohe ai ma kuu aina no kau hana ana a me kou naauao.
6 I did not believe those who described it, until I had arrived and my eyes had seen, and I had proven that not even half of your wisdom had been described to me. You have exceeded your fame with your virtue.
Aole nae i hoomaopopo i ka lakou olelo, a hiki mai au, a ike ko'u mau maka; aia hoi, aole i haiia mai ia'u ka hapalua o kou nui, a me kou naauao; ua hooi aku oe i ka lono ana a'u i lohe ai.
7 Blessed are your men, and blessed are your servants, who stand before you at all times and listen to your wisdom.
Pomaikai kou poe kanaka, a pomaikai hoi keia poe kauwa au, ka poe e ku mau ana imua o kou alo, a e lohe ana hoi i kou naauao.
8 Blessed is the Lord your God, who willed to set you upon his throne as a king for the Lord your God. Since God loves Israel, he wishes to preserve them unto eternity. For this reason, he appointed you as king over them, so that you may accomplish judgment and justice.”
E hoomaikaiia o Iehova kou Akua, ka mea i makemake mai ia oe e hoonoho ia oe maluna o kona nohoalii, i alii no Iehova no kou Akua; no ke aloha ana o kou Akua i ka Iseraela, a me kona hookupaa mau loa ana ia lakou, nolaila oia i hoonoho iho ai ia oe maluna o lakou i alii e hana i ka pono a me ka pololei.
9 Then she gave to the king one hundred twenty talents of gold, and an exceedingly great abundance of aromatics, and very precious gems. Never were there such aromatics as those that the queen of Sheba gave to king Solomon.
A haawi mai la oia i ke alii i hookahi haneri talena gula a me ka iwakalua, a me na mea ala he nui loa, a me na pohaku makamae; aohe mea ala e ae e like me ka mea a ke alii wahine no Seba i haawi mai ai i ke alii ia Solomona.
10 Then too, the servants of Hiram, with the servants of Solomon, brought gold from Ophir, and wood from thyine trees, and very precious gems.
A o na kauwa a Hurama a me na kauwa a Solomona ka poe i lawe i ke gula mai Opira mai, lawe no hoi lakou i na laau aleguma a me na pohaku makamae.
11 And the king made, from this particular thyine wood, steps in the house of the Lord, and in the house of the king, and also harps and psalteries for the singing men. Never was there seen such wood in the land of Judah.
Hana iho la o Solomona me ka laau aleguma i alapii no ka hale o Iehova, a no ka hale o ke alii, a me na mea kani, a me na kuolo kani no ka poe mele; aole i ikeia na mea e like me ua mau mea la ma ka aina o Iuda.
12 Then king Solomon gave to the queen of Sheba all that she desired, and all that she requested, and much more than what she had brought to him. And returning, she went away to her own land with her servants.
A haawi aku la ke alii o Solomona i ke alii wahine no Seba i kona makemake a pau, na mea ana i noi mai ai, o na mea kekahi ana i haawi mai ai na ke alii: alaila, huli ae la oia a hele aku la i kona aina, oia a me kana poe kauwa.
13 Now the weight of the gold, which was being brought to Solomon throughout each year, was six hundred sixty-six talents of gold,
A o ke kaupaona ana o ke gula i laweia ia Solomona i ka makahiki hookahi, eono haneri a me kanaonokumamaono talena gula:
14 apart from the sum that the legates of various nations and the merchants were accustomed to bring, and apart from the gold and silver that all the kings of Arabia, and the princes of the lands, were bringing together for Solomon.
Okoa ka mea a ka poe kuai, a me ka poe kalepa i lawe mai ai: a o na'lii a pau o Arabia, a me na kiaaina, lawe mai la lakou i ke gula, a me ke kala ia Solomona.
15 And so, king Solomon made two hundred gold spears, from six hundred gold pieces, the amount used for each spear,
Hana iho la o Solomona ke alii i na paleumauma gula maemae ole elua haneri; eono haneri sekela gula maemae ole ma ka paleumauma hookahi.
16 and also three hundred gold shields, from three hundred gold pieces, which covered each shield. And the king placed them in the armory, which was situated in a forest.
A me na palekaua gula maemae ole ekolu haneri; ekolu haneri sekela gula maemae ole ma ka palekaua hookahi; a waiho iho la ke ahi ia mau mea iloko o ka hale o ka ululaau o Lebanona.
17 Also, the king made a great ivory throne, and he clothed it with the purest gold.
A hana iho la ke alii i nohoalii niho elepani a nui, a uhi oia ia mea i ke gula maemae.
18 And there were six steps, by which he would ascend to the throne, and a footstool of gold, and two arms, one on each side, and two lions standing beside the arms.
Eono anuu i ka nohoalii, a he paepae wawae gula, e pili ana i ka nohoalii, a me na kalele ma kela aoao a me keia aoao o kahi e noho ai, a elua liona e ku ana ma keia mau aoao.
19 Moreover, there were twelve additional little lions standing upon the six steps on both sides. There was no similar throne in all the kingdoms.
O na liona he umikumamalua i ka malaila maluna o na anuu, eono ma kela aoao a ma keia aoao; aohe mea e like ai i hanaia ma na aupuni a pau.
20 Also, all the vessels for the feasts of the king were of gold, and the vessels of the forest house of Lebanon were from the purest gold. For silver in those days was considered as nothing.
A o na kiaha inu a pau loa o ke alii, o Solomona, he gula no; a o na ipu a pau o ka hale o ka ululaau o Lebanona he gula maemae; aole he kala kekahi, ua manaia oia he mea ole, i na la o Solomona.
21 For indeed, the ships of the king went to Tarshish, with the servants of Hiram, once every three years. And they brought from there gold, and silver, and ivory, and primates, and peacocks.
No ka mea, holo na moku o ke alii ma Taresisa me na kauwa a Hurama, hookahi ku ana o na moku o Taresisa i na makahiki ekolu, e lawe mai ana i ke gula, a me ke kala a me na niho elepani, a me na keko a me na pikaka.
22 And so, Solomon was magnified above all the kings of the earth in wealth and glory.
A oi e aku o Solomona mamua o na'lii a pau loa o ka honua ma ka waiwai a me ka naauao.
23 And all the kings of the lands were desiring to see the face of Solomon, so that they might hear the wisdom that God had granted to his heart.
Ua imi na'lii a pau o ka honua i ke alo o Solomona e lohe i kona naauao, ka mea a ke Akua i hookomo ai iloko o kona naau.
24 And they were bringing to him gifts, vessels of silver and of gold, and garments, and armor, and aromatics, and horses, and mules, throughout each year.
A lawe mai lakou, kela mea keia mea, i kana makana, i na ipu kala, a me na ipu gula, a me na aahu, a me na mea kaua, a me na mea ala, a me na lio, a me na hoki, he haawina i kela makahiki i keia makahiki.
25 Also, Solomon had forty thousand horses in the stables, and twelve thousand chariots and horsemen, and he appointed them to the cities of the chariots, and where the king was in Jerusalem.
Aia no ia Solomona na kauhale, kahi no na lio, a no na halekaa eha tausani, a me na hoohololio he umikumamalua tausani; a hoonoho oia ia lakou iloko o na kulanakauhale no na kaa, a ma Ierusalema kekahi me ke alii.
26 Now he also exercised authority over all the kings from the river Euphrates as far as the land of the Philistines, and as far as the borders of Egypt.
A noho alii oia maluna o na'lii a pau mai ka muliwai a hiki i ka aina o Pilisetia, a i ka mokuna o Aigupita.
27 And he brought forth so much silver that it was as plentiful in Jerusalem as stones. And cedar trees were as great in number as the sycamores that spring up in the plains.
A hoolilo ae la ke alii i ke kala ma Ierusalema e like me na pohaku, a haawi mai i na laau kedera e like me na laau sukamorea ma ke awawa i nui loa.
28 And horses were brought to him from Egypt and from every region.
A ua kaiia mai na lio no Solomona mai Aigupita mai, a mailoko mai o na aina a pau.
29 Now the rest of the works of Solomon, the first and the last, have been written in the words of Nathan, the prophet, and in the books of Ahijah, the Shilonite, as well as in the vision of Iddo, the seer, against Jeroboam, the son of Nabat.
A o na mea i koe a Solomona i hana'i, mamua, a mahope hoi, aole anei i kakauia ia mau mea ma ka palapala a Natana, ke kaula, a me ka wanana a Ahiia no Siloni, a ma ka wanana a Ido ana i wanana ai no Ieroboama ke keiki a Nebata?
30 And Solomon reigned in Jerusalem, over all of Israel, for forty years.
A noho alii o Solomona ma Ierusalema maluna o ka Iseraela a pau i na makahiki hookahi kanaha.
31 And he slept with his fathers. And they buried him in the City of David. And his son, Rehoboam, reigned in his place.
A hiamoe iho la o Solomona me kona mau makua, a kanu lakou ia ia ma ke kulanakauhale o Davida o kona makua, a noho alii iho la o Rehoboama mahope ona.
