< 1 Kings 10 >
1 And the queen of Sheba heard of the fame of Solomon in connection with the name of Jehovah, and came to prove him with enigmas.
Ary ny mpanjakavavin’ i Sheba, rehefa nahare ny lazan’ i Solomona ny amin’ ny anaran’ i Jehovah, dia avy hizaha toetra azy amin’ ny fanontaniana sarotra,
2 And she came to Jerusalem with a very great train, with camels that bore spices and gold in very great abundance, and precious stones; and she came to Solomon, and spoke to him of all that was in her heart.
ka tonga tany Jerosalema izy mbamin’ ny mpanaraka maro be sy ny rameva izay nitondra zava-manitra sy volamena sesehena ary vato soa; ary rehefa tonga tany amin’ i Solomona izy, dia nilaza taminy izay rehetra tao am-pony.
3 And Solomon explained to her all she spoke of: there was not a thing hidden from the king that he did not explain to her.
Ary voavalin’ i Solomona izy tamin’ izay rehetra nanontaniany azy; tsy nisy zavatra niafina tamin’ ny mpanjaka, ka dia nambarany azy avokoa.
4 And when the queen of Sheba saw all Solomon's wisdom, and the house that he had built,
Ary rehefa hitan’ ilay mpanjakavavin’ i Sheba ny fahendren’ i Solomona rehetra sy ny trano izay nataony
5 and the food of his table, and the deportment of his servants, and the order of service of his attendants, and their apparel, and his cupbearers, and his ascent by which he went up to the house of Jehovah, there was no more spirit in her.
sy ny fihinany teo amin’ ny latabany sy ny fipetrahan’ ny tandapany sy ny fitoeran’ ny mpanompony mbamin’ ny fitafian’ ireo sy ny mpitondra kapoakany ary ny ambaratonga izay niakarany ho ao an-tranon’ i Jehovah, dia talanjona terỳ izy.
6 And she said to the king, It was a true report that I heard in mine own land of thine affairs, and of thy wisdom;
Ka hoy izy tamin’ ny mpanjaka: Marina ny teny efa reko tany amin’ ny taniko ny amin’ ny teninao sy ny fahendrenao.
7 but I gave no credit to the words, until I came and mine eyes had seen; and behold, the half was not told me: in wisdom and prosperity thou exceedest the report that I heard.
kanefa tsy nino ny filazana aho, raha tsy tonga atỳ, ka ny masoko no mahita, kanjo hay! na dia ny antsasany aza tsy voalaza tamiko akory: fa, indro, ny fahendrenao sy ny voninahitrao dia mihoatra lavitra noho izay laza efa reko.
8 Happy are thy men! happy are these thy servants, who stand continually before thee, who hear thy wisdom!
Sambatra lahy ny olonao, ary sambatra ireto tandapanao ireto, izay mijanona eto anatrehanao mandrakariva ka mandre ny fahendrenao
9 Blessed be Jehovah thy God, who delighted in thee, to set thee on the throne of Israel! Because Jehovah loves Israel for ever, therefore did he make thee king, to do judgment and justice.
Isaorana anie Jehovah Andriamanitrao, Izay tia anao ka nametraka anao amin’ ny seza fiandrianan’ ny Isiraely; fa noho ny fitiavan’ i Jehovah, izay itiavany ny Isiraely mandrakizay, no nanaovany anao ho mpanjaka mba hanao fitsarana sy fahamarinana.
10 And she gave the king a hundred and twenty talents of gold, and spices in very great abundance, and precious stones: there came no more such abundance of spices as those which the queen of Sheba gave to king Solomon.
Ary izy nanome talenta volamena roa-polo amby zato sy zava-manitra sesehena ary vato soa ho an’ ny mpanjaka; tsy nisy intsony zava-manitra be indrindra tonga tahaka ilay nomen’ ny mpanjakavavin’ i Sheba ho an’ i Solomona mpanjaka.
11 (And the fleet also of Hiram, which carried gold from Ophir, brought from Ophir sandal-wood in very great abundance, and precious stones.
Ary ny sambon’ i Hirama koa, izay naka volamena avy any Ofira, dia nitondra hazo almoga be indrindra sy vato soa avy any Ofira.
12 And the king made of the sandal-wood a balustrade for the house of Jehovah, and for the king's house, and harps and lutes for the singers. There came no such sandal-wood, nor was there seen to this day.)
Ary ny hazo almoga dia nataon’ ny mpanjaka arofanina tamin’ ny tranon’ i Jehovah sy ny lapan’ andriana ary nataony lokanga sy valiha ho an’ ny mpihira kosa; tsy nisy hazo almoga tonga tany na hita toy izany intsony mandraka androany.
13 And king Solomon gave to the queen of Sheba all her desire, whatever she asked, besides what he gave her of the bounty of king Solomon. And she turned and went to her own land, she and her servants.
Ary Solomona mpanjaka nanome ny mpanjakavavin’ i Sheba kosa izay rehetra niriny, na inona na inona nangatahiny, afa-tsy izay nomeny azy araka ny fanomen’ i Solomona mpanjaka; ka dia niverina izy, ary lasa nody tany amin’ ny taniny izy mbamin’ ny mpanompony.
14 And the weight of gold that came to Solomon in one year was six hundred and sixty-six talents of gold,
Ary ny lanjan’ ny volamena izay tonga tao amin’ i Solomona isan-taona dia talenta volamena enina amby enim-polo amby enin-jato,
15 besides what [came] by the dealers, and by the traffic of the merchants, and by all the kings of Arabia, and by the governors of the country.
afa-tsy izay azony tamin’ ny mpandranto sy ny tamin’ ny varotry ny mpivarotra ary tamin’ ny mpanjakan’ ny firenena samy hafa rehetra sy tamin’ ny mpanapaka ny tany.
16 And king Solomon made two hundred targets of beaten gold, — he applied six hundred [shekels] of gold to one target;
Ary Solomona mpanjaka nanao ampinga volamena lehibe roan-jato tamin’ ny volamena voafisaka, ka takela-bolamena sekely enin-jato no napetaka tamin’ ny ampinga lehibe iray.
17 and three hundred shields of beaten gold, — he applied three minas of gold to one shield; and the king put them in the house of the forest of Lebanon.
Ary nanao ampinga volamena telonjato koa izy tamin’ ny volamena voafisaka, ka takela-bolamena telo mane no napetaka tamin’ ny ampinga iray. Dia napetraky ny mpanjaka tao amin’ ny trano Alan’ i Libanona ireo.
18 And the king made a great throne of ivory, and overlaid it with refined gold:
Ary ny mpanjaka dia nanao seza fiandrianana ivory lehibe, ka nopetahany takela-bolamena tsara indrindra.
19 the throne had six steps, and the top of the throne was rounded behind; and there were arms on each side at the place of the seat, and two lions stood beside the arms;
Nisy ambaratonga enina tamin’ ny seza fiandrianana; ary ny lohan’ ny seza fiandrianana, dia boribory ny eo an damosiny; ary nisy fitehenan-tanana teo an-daniny roa amin’ ny fipetrahana; ary nisy sarin-diona roa teo an-danin’ ny fitehenan-tanana.
20 and twelve lions stood there on the one side and on the other upon the six steps: there was not the like made in any kingdom.
Ary nisy sarin-diona roa ambin’ ny folo teo an-daniny roa teo amin’ ny ambaratonga enina. Tsy nisy natao tahaka izany tany amin’ ny fanjakana rehetra.
21 And all king Solomon's drinking vessels were of gold, and all the vessels of the house of the forest of Lebanon were of precious gold: none were of silver, [which] was not of the least account in the days of Solomon.
Ary ny fisotroan’ i Solomona mpanjaka dia volamena, ary ny fanaka rehetra tao amin’ ny trano Alan’ i Libanona koa dia volamena tsara avokoa; tsy nisy volafotsy ireo; fa nataony toy ny tsinontsinona izany tamin’ ny andron’ i Solomona.
22 For the king had on the sea a Tarshish-fleet, with the fleet of Hiram: once in three years came the Tarshish-fleet, bringing gold and silver, ivory, and apes, and peacocks.
Fa ny mpanjaka nanana sambon’ i Tarsisy mbamin’ ny sambon’ i Hirama teny ambonin’ ny ranomasina; ary indray mandeha amin’ ny telo taona no nihavian’ ny sambon’ i Tarsisy nitondra volamena sy volafotsy sy ivory sy rajako ary vorombola.
23 And king Solomon was greater than all the kings of the earth in riches and in wisdom.
Ary Solomona mpanjaka dia nanankarena sady hendry noho ny mpanjaka rehetra ambonin’ ny tany.
24 And all the earth sought the presence of Solomon, to hear his wisdom, which God had put in his heart.
Ary ny tany rehetra nitady hahita ny tavan’ i Solomona mba hihaino ny fahendrena izay nataon’ Andriamanitra tao am-pony.
25 And they brought every man his present, vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and clothing, and armour, and spices, horses and mules, a rate year by year.
Ary izy rehetra dia samy nahatonga ny anjarany avy isan-taona, dia fanaka volafotsy sy fanaka volamena sy fitafiana sy fiadiana sy zava-manitra sy soavaly ary ampondra.
26 And Solomon gathered chariots and horsemen; and he had a thousand four hundred chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen; and he placed them in the chariot-cities, and with the king at Jerusalem.
Ary Solomona nanangona kalesy sy mpitaingin-tsoavaly; ary nanana kalesy efajato amby arivo izy sy mpitaingin-tsoavaly roa arivo amby iray alina, izay nataony tao amin’ ireo tanàna fitoeran’ ny kalesy sy tao amin’ ny mpanjaka tany Jerosalema.
27 And the king made silver in Jerusalem as stones, and cedars made he as the sycamores that are in the lowland for abundance.
Ary nataon’ ny mpanjaka tahaka ny vato ny habetsaky ny volafotsy tany Jerosalema, ary ny hazo sedera nataony toy ny aviavy eny amin’ ny tany lemaka amoron-tsiraka.
28 And the exportation of horses that Solomon had was from Egypt: a caravan of the king's merchants fetched a drove [of horses], at a price.
Ary avy any Egypta no nahazoan’ i Solomona soavaly; ary ny iray toko tamin’ ny mpandranton’ ny mpanjaka dia naka ny andiany iray araka izay vidiny voatendry.
29 And a chariot came up and went out of Egypt for six hundred [shekels] of silver, and a horse for a hundred and fifty; and so they brought [them] by their means, for all the kings of the Hittites and for the kings of Syria.
Ary ny vidin’ ny kalesy iray nentiny niakatra avy tany Egypta dia sekely volafotsy enin-jato, ary ny soavaly dia dimam-polo amby zato avy; ary toy izany kosa no nitondrany ho an’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Hetita sy ny mpanjakan’ ny Syriana.
