1 Kings 10
1 And the queen of Saba, having; heard of the fame of Solomon in the name of the Lord, came to try him with hard questions.
E ouvindo a rainha de Saba a fama de Salomão, ácerca do nome do Senhor, veiu proval-o por enigmas.
2 And entering into Jerusalem with a great train, and riches, and camels that carried spices, and an immense quantity of gold, and precious stones, she came to king Solomon, and spoke to him all that she had in her heart.
E veiu a Jerusalem com um mui grande exercito; com camelos carregados de especiarias, e muitissimo oiro, e pedras preciosas: e veiu a Salom o, e disse-lhe tudo quanto tinha no seu coração.
3 And Solomon informed her of all the things she proposed to him: there was not any word the king was ignorant of, and which he could not answer her.
E Salomão lhe declarou todas as suas palavras: nenhuma coisa se escondeu ao rei, que não lhe declarasse.
4 And when the queen of Saba saw all the wisdom of Solomon, and the house which he had built,
Vendo pois a rainha de Saba toda a sabedoria de Salomão, e a casa que edificara,
5 And the meat of his table, and the apartments of his servants, and the order of his ministers, and their apparel, and the cupbearers, and the holocausts, which he offered in the house of the Lord: she had no longer any spirit in her,
E a comida da sua mesa, e o assentar de seus servos, e o estar de seus creados, e os vestidos d'elles, e os seus copeiros, e a sua subida, pela qual subia á casa do Senhor, não houve mais espirito n'ella.
6 And she said to the king: The report is true, which I heard in my own country,
E disse ao rei: Foi verdade a palavra que ouvi na minha terra, das tuas coisas e da tua sabedoria.
7 Concerning thy words, and concerning thy wisdom. And I did not believe them that told me, till I came myself, and saw with my own eyes, and have found that the half hath not been told me: thy wisdom and thy works, exceed the fame which I heard.
E eu não cria n'aquellas palavras, até que vim, e os meus olhos o viram; eis que me não disseram metade; sobre-pujaste em sabedoria e bens a fama que ouvi.
8 Blessed are thy men, and blessed are thy servants, who stand before thee always, and hear thy wisdom.
Bemaventurados os teus homens, bemaventurados estes teus servos, que estão sempre diante de ti, que ouvem a tua sabedoria!
9 Blessed be the Lord thy God, whom thou hast pleased, and who hath set thee upon the throne of Israel, because the Lord hath loved Israel for ever, and hath appointed thee king, to do judgment and justice.
Bemdito seja o Senhor teu Deus, que teve agrado em ti, para te pôr no throno de Israel: porque o Senhor ama a Israel para sempre, por isso te estabeleceu rei, para fazeres juizo e justiça.
10 And she gave the king a hundred and twenty talents of gold, and of spices a very great store, and precious stones: there was brought no more such abundance of spices as these which the queen of Saba gave to king Solomon.
E deu ao rei cento e vinte talentos de oiro, e muitissimas especiarias, e pedras preciosas: nunca veiu especiaria em tanta abundancia, como a que a rainha de Saba deu ao rei Salomão.
11 (The navy also of Hiram, which brought gold from Ophir, brought from Ophir great plenty of thyine trees, and precious stones.
Tambem as náos d'Hirão, que de Ophir levavam oiro, traziam de Ophir muitissima madeira de Almug, e pedras preciosas.
12 And the king made of the thyine trees the rails of the house of the Lord, and of the king’s house, and citterns and harps for singers: there were no such thyine trees as these brought, nor seen unto this day.)
E d'esta madeira d'Almug fez o rei balaustres para a casa do Senhor, e para a casa do rei, como tambem harpas e alaúdes para os cantores: nunca veiu tal madeira de Almug, nem se viu até o dia d'hoje.
13 And king Solomon gave the queen of Saba all that she desired, and asked of him: besides what he offered he himself of his royal bounty. And she returned, and went to her own country with her servants.
E o rei Salomão deu á rainha de Saba tudo quanto lhe pediu o seu desejo, de mais do que lhe deu, segundo a largueza do rei Salomão: então voltou e partiu para a sua terra, ella e os seus servos.
14 And the weight of the gold that was brought to Solomon every year, was six hundred and sixty-six talents of gold:
E era o peso do oiro que se trazia a Salomão cada anno seiscentos e sessenta e seis talentos de oiro;
15 Besides that which the men brought him that were over the tributes, and the merchants, and they that sold by retail, and all the kings of Arabia, and the governors of the country.
Além do dos negociantes, e do contracto dos especieiros, e de todos os reis da Arabia, e dos governadores da mesma terra.
16 And Solomon made two hundred shields of the purest gold: he allowed six hundred sides of gold for the plates of one shield.
Tambem o rei Salomão fez duzentos pavezes de oiro batido; seiscentos siclos de oiro mandou pesar para cada pavez;
17 And three hundred targets of fine gold: three hundred pounds of gold covered one target: and the king put them in the house of the forest of Libanus.
Assim mesmo trezentos escudos de oiro batido; tres arrateis de oiro mandou pesar para cada escudo; e o rei os poz na casa do bosque do Libano.
18 King Solomon also made a great throne of ivory: and overlaid it with the finest gold.
Fez mais o rei um grande throno de marfim, e o cobriu de oiro purissimo.
19 It had six steps: and the top of the throne was round behind: and there were two hands on either side holding the seat: and two lions stood, one at each hand.
Tinha este throno seis degraus, e era a cabeça do throno por detraz redonda, e de ambas as bandas tinha encostos até ao assento: e dois leões estavam junto aos encostos.
20 And twelve little lions stood upon the six steps on the one side and on the other: there was no such work made in any kingdom.
Tambem doze leões estavam ali sobre os seis degraus de ambas as bandas: nunca se tinha feito obra similhante em nenhum dos reinos.
21 Moreover all the vessels, out of which king Solomon drank, were of gold: and all the furniture of the house of the forest of Libanus was of most pure gold: there was no silver, nor was any account made of it in the days of Solomon:
Tambem todos os vasos de beber do rei Salomão eram de oiro, e todos os vasos da casa do bosque do Libano eram de oiro puro: não havia n'elles prata; porque nos dias de Salomão não tinha estimação alguma.
22 For the king’s navy, once in three years, went with the navy of Hiram by sea to Tharsis, and brought from thence gold, and silver, and elephants’ teeth, and apes, and peacocks.
Porque o rei tinha no mar as náos de Tarsis, com as náos de Hirão: uma vez em tres annos tornavam as náos de Tarsis, e traziam oiro e prata, marfim, e bugios, e pavões.
23 And king Solomon exceeded all the kings of the earth in riches, and wisdom.
Assim o rei Salomão excedeu a todos os reis da terra: tanto em riquezas como em sabedoria.
24 And all the earth desired to see Solomon’s face, to hear his wisdom, which God had given in his heart.
E toda a terra buscava a face de Salomão, para ouvir a sua sabedoria, que Deus tinha posto no seu coração.
25 And every one brought him presents, vessels of silver and of gold, garments and armour, and spices, and horses and mules every year.
E traziam cada um por seu presente vasos de prata e vasos de oiro, e vestidos, e armaduras, e especiarias, cavallos e mulas: cada coisa de anno em anno.
26 And Solomon gathered together chariots and horsemen, and he had a thousand four hundred chariots, and twelve thousand horseman: and he bestowed them in fenced cities, and with the king in Jerusalem.
Tambem ajuntou Salomão carros e cavalleiros, de sorte que tinha mil e quatrocentos carros e doze mil cavalleiros: e os levou ás cidades dos carros, e junto ao rei em Jerusalem.
27 And he made silver to be as plentiful in Jerusalem as stones: and cedars to be as common as sycamores which grow in the plains.
E fez o rei que em Jerusalem houvesse prata como pedras: e cedros em abundancia como figueiras bravas que estão nas planicies.
28 And horses were brought for Solomon out of Egypt, and Coa: for the king’s merchants brought them out of Coa, and bought them at a set price.
E tiravam cavallos do Egypto para Salomão: e ás manadas as recebiam os mercadores do rei, cada manada por um certo preço.
29 And a chariot of four horses came out of Egypt, for six hundred sides of silver, and a horse for a hundred and fifty. And after this manner did all the kings of the Hethites, and of Syria, sell horses.
E subia e sahia o carro do Egypto por seiscentos siclos de prata, e o cavallo por cento e cincoenta: e assim, por meio d'elles, os tiravam para todos os reis dos hetheos e para os reis da Syria.
