7 And Solomon had twelve governors over all Israel, who provided victuals for the king and for his household: for every one provided necessaries, each man his month in the year.

21 And Solomon had under him all the kingdoms from the river to the land of the Philistines, even to the border of Egypt: and they brought him presents, and served him, all the days of his life.
Pea naʻe pule ʻa Solomone ki he puleʻanga kotoa pē mei he vaitafe ʻo aʻu atu ki he fonua ʻoe kakai Filisitia, pea ʻe aʻu ki he ngataʻanga ʻo ʻIsipite: naʻa nau ʻomi koloa, ʻo tukuhau kia Solomone lolotonga ʻae ʻaho kotoa pē ʻo ʻene moʻui.
22 And the provision of Solomon for each day was thirty measures of fine flour, and threescore measures of meal,
Pea ko e meʻakai ʻa Solomone ki he ʻaho pe taha, ko e fuaʻanga ʻe tolungofulu ʻoe mahoaʻa lelei, mo e fuaʻanga ʻe onongofulu ʻoe mahoaʻa ʻe taha,
23 Ten fat oxen and twenty out of the pastures, and a hundred rams, besides venison of harts, roes, and buffles, and fatted fowls.

24 For he had all the country which was beyond the river, from Thaphsa to Gazan, and all the kings of those countries: and he had peace on every side round about.

25 And Juda and Israel dwelt without any fear, every one under his vine, and under his fig tree, from Dan to Bersabee, all the days of Solomon.

26 And Solomon had forty thousand stalls of chariot horses, and twelve thousand for the saddle.
Pea naʻe maʻu ʻe Solomone ʻae potu tuʻuʻanga ʻe fā mano ki he fanga hoosi ʻo ʻene ngaahi saliote, pea mo e kau heka hoosi ʻe tokotaha mano ma toko ua afe.
27 And the foresaid governors of the king fed them: and they furnished the necessaries also for king Solomon’s table, with great care in their time.
Pea naʻe tokonaki ʻe he kau matāpule ko ia ʻae meʻakai mā ʻae tuʻi ko Solomone, pea maʻanautolu kotoa pē naʻe haʻu ki he keinangaʻanga ʻa Solomone, ko e tangata taki taha ʻi hono māhina: naʻe ʻikai te nau masiva ʻi ha meʻa.
28 They brought barley also and straw for the horses, and beasts, to the place where the king was, according as it was appointed them.
Naʻa nau ʻomi foki, ʻe he tangata taki taha ʻo hangē ko ʻene ngāue ʻaʻana, ʻae paʻale mo e kauʻi koane maʻae fanga hoosi mo e fanga manu veʻevave, ki he potu naʻe ʻi ai ʻae kau matāpule.
29 And God gave to Solomon wisdom and understanding exceeding much, and largeness of heart as the sand that is on the sea shore.
Pea naʻe foaki ʻe he ʻOtua kia Solomone ʻae poto lahi ʻaupito mo e loto faʻa fakakaukau, mo e loto fuʻu lahi, ʻo hangē ko e ʻoneʻone ʻaia ʻoku ʻi he matātahi.
30 And the wisdom of Solomon surpassed the wisdom of all the Orientals, and of the Egyptians,
Pea naʻe lahi hake ʻae poto ʻa Solomone ʻi he poto ʻae kakai kotoa pē ʻoe fonua fakahahake, mo e poto kotoa pē ʻo ʻIsipite.
31 And he was wiser than all men: wiser than Ethan the Ezrahite, and Heman, and Chalcol, and Dorda the sons of Mahol, and he was renowned in all nations round about.
He naʻe poto lahi hake ia ʻi he kakai kotoa pē; ʻo lahi hake ʻia Etani ko e tangata Esalai, mo Hemani, mo Kalikoli, mo Talita, ko e ngaahi foha ʻo Maholi: pea naʻe aʻu atu ʻa ʻene ongoongolelei ki he ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē naʻe tuʻu takatakai ai.
32 Solomon also spoke three thousand parables: and his poems were a thousand and five.
Pea naʻa ne lea ʻaki ʻae lea fakatātā ʻe tolu afe: pea naʻe taha afe ma nima ʻa ʻene hiva.
33 And he treated about trees from the cedar that is in Libanus, unto the hyssop that cometh out of the wall: and he discoursed of beasts, and of fowls, and of creeping things, and of fishes.
Pea naʻa ne fakamatala ʻae ngaahi ʻakau, mei he ʻakau ko e sita ʻoku ʻi Lepanoni ʻo aʻu hifo ki he ʻisope ʻoku tupu mai mei he funga ʻoe ʻā: naʻa ne lea foki ki he ngaahi fanga manu, mo e fanga manupuna, mo e meʻa ʻoku totolo, pea mo e ngaahi ika.
34 And they came from all nations to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and from all the kings of the earth, who heard of his wisdom.
