2 Chronicles 9
1 And when the queen of Saba heard of the fame of Solomon, she came to try him with hard questions at Jerusalem, with great riches, and camels, which carried spices, and abundance of gold, and precious stones. And when she was come to Solomon, she proposed to him all that was in her heart.
Sheba manghainu loh Solomon kah olthang te a yaak. Te dongah Solomon te olkael neh noemcai ham, Jerusalem la tatthai miping neh muep pawk. Te vaengah botui neh sui cungkuem, lung vang aka phuei kalauk neh Solomon taengla pawk. Te phoeiah a thinko kah aka om boeih te a taengah a thui pah.
2 And Solomon explained to her all that she proposed: and there was not any thing that he did not make clear unto her.
Anih ol boeih te amah taengah Solomon loh a thui pah. Tedae a taengah a thui tloel ham hil tah Solomon ham ol a kael aih moenih.
3 And when she had seen these things, to wit, the wisdom of Solomon, and the house which he had built,
Sheba manghainu loh Solomon kah cueihnah neh im a sak te khaw,
4 And the meats of his table, and the dwelling places of his servants, and the attendance of his officers, and their apparel, his cupbearers also, and their garments, and the victims which he offered in the house of the Lord: there was no more spirit in her, she was so astonished.
A caboei dongkah caak neh a sal rhoek kah tolrhum khaw, a taengah aka thotat rhoek kah ngolhmuen neh amih hnicu khaw, a tuitul neh a hnicu khaw, BOEIPA im la aka pawk a imhman khaw a hmuh. Te vaengah a khuikah mueihla khaw om ha pawh.
5 And she said to the king: The word is true which I heard in my country of thy virtues and wisdom.
Te dongah manghai te, “Ka kho ah ka yaak na olka neh na cueihnah te oltak ol ni.
6 I did not believe them that told it, until I came, and my eyes had seen, and I had proved that scarce one half of thy wisdom had been told me: thou hast exceeded the same with thy virtues.
Te cakhaw ka pawk tih ka mik loh a hmuh hlan hil amih ol dongah ka tangnah pawh. Tedae kai taengah rhuekthuem khaw a thui moenih ko he. Na cueihnah olthang ka yaak lakah a puehkan na khoep.
7 Happy are thy men, and happy are thy servants, who stand always before thee, and hear thy wisdom.
Na hlang rhoek a yoethen. Na mikhmuh ah phat aka pai rhoek neh na cueihnah aka ya na sal rhoek khaw a yoethen.
8 Blessed be the Lord thy God, who hath been pleased to set thee on his throne, king of the Lord thy God. Because God loveth Israel, and will preserve them for ever: therefore hath he made thee king over them, to do judgment and justice.
Na Pathen BOEIPA tah om pai saeh, a yoethen pai saeh. Na Pathen BOEIPA ham manghai la a ngolkhoel dongah nang khueh ham khaw nang soah hmae pai saeh. Israel te kumhal hil a pai sak ham nang Pathen loh lungnah pai saeh. Te dongah tiktamnah neh duengnah saii ham ni nang te amih soah manghai la n'khueh,” a ti nah.
9 And she gave to the king a hundred and twenty talents of gold, and spices in great abundance, and most precious stones: there were no such spices as these which the queen of Saba gave to king Solomon.
Te phoeiah manghai te sui talent ya pakul, botui te a cungkuem la muep, lung vang khaw a paek. Sheba manghainu loh manghai Solomon taengah a paek botui bang he a om noek moenih.
10 And the servants also of Hiram, with the servants of Solomon, brought gold from Ophir, and thyine trees, and most precious stones:
Te phoeiah Khiram Huram kah sal rhoek neh Solomon kah sal rhoek long khaw Ophir lamkah sui a khuen pauh. Algum thing neh lung vang khaw a khuen uh.
11 And the king made of the thyine trees stairs in the house of the Lord, and in the king’s house, and harps and psalteries for the singing men: never were there seen such trees in the land of Juda.
Manghai loh algum thing te BOEIPA im neh manghai im kah longpuei la, tingtoeng aka hlai ham rhotoeng neh thangpa la a saii. Lamhma ah te bang Judah kho ah a hmuh moenih.
12 And king Solomon gave to the queen of Saba all that she desired, and that she asked, and many more things than she brought to him: so she returned, and went to her own country with her servants.
Manghai Solomon loh manghainu Sheba te a kongaih boeih a rhoi pah. Te vaengah a dawt te amah manghai ham a khuen pah lakah yet. Te phoeiah mael tih amah neh a sal rhoek te amah kho la pawk.
13 And the weight of the gold, that was brought to Solomon every year, was six hundred and sixty-six talents of gold:
Solomon taengla kum khat dongah aka pawk sui he a khiing la sui talent ah ya rhuk neh sawmrhuk parhuk lo.
14 Beside the sum which the deputies of divers nations, and the merchants were accustomed to bring, and all the kings of Arabia, and the lords of the lands, who I brought gold and silver to Solomon.
Te bueng kolla long yaam hlang neh thimpom rhoek loh a khuen pah, Arabia manghai boeih neh khohmuen rhalboei rhoek long khaw Solomon ham sui neh cak te a khuen pah.
15 And king Solomon made two hundred golden spears, of the sum of six hundred pieces of gold, which went to every spear:
Te dongah manghai Solomon loh sui photlinglen yahnih a saii tih photlinglen pakhat dongkah caeh rhoeh la a boh vaengah sui ya rhuk a boh thil.
16 And three hundred golden shields of three hundred pieces of gold, which went to the covering of every shield: and the king put them in the armoury, which was compassed with a wood.
Sui photlingca te ya thum ham khaw photlingca pakhat rhip ah a caeh rhoeh ah sui ya thum a boh thil. Te rhoek te manghai loh Lebanon duup im ah a khueh.
17 The king also made a great throne of ivory, and overlaid it with pure gold.
Te phoeiah manghai loh vueino ngolkhoel a len a saii tih sui cilh a ben thil.
18 And six steps to go up to the throne, and a footstool of gold, and two arms one on either side, and two lions standing by the arms:
Ngolkhoel te tangtlaeng parhuk om tih sui khotloeng te ngolkhoel dongah a buen. Ngolnah hmuen te he ben ah khaw ke ah khaw a kut om. A kut rhoi taengah sathueng pumnit pai.
19 Moreover twelve other little lions standing upon the steps on both sides: there was not such a throne in any kingdom.
Khatben khatbang kah tangtlaeng parhuk soah sathueng hlai nit pahoi pai. Te bang te ram takuem ah a saii moenih.
20 And all the vessels of the king’s table were of gold, and the vessels of the house of the forest of Libanus were of the purest gold. For no account was made of silver in those days.
Manghai Solomon kah tui-ok hnopai boeih khaw sui ni. Lebanon duup im kah hnopai boeih khaw sui kak ni. Cak he Solomon tue vaengah tah koihvaih pawh hno pakhat bangla a ngai.
21 For the king’s ships went to Tharsis with the servants of Hiram, once in three years: and they brought thence gold and silver, and ivory, and apes, and peacocks.
Huram kah sal rhoek neh Tarshish la aka cet manghai kah sangpho rhoek long khaw kum thum ah vai mael uh. Tarshish sangpho loh sui neh cak khaw, vueino, kaipoeh neh varhing khaw a phueih pah.
22 And Solomon was magnified above all the kings of the earth for riches and glory.
Manghai Solomon he diklai manghai boeih lakah khuehtawn neh cueihnah dongah pantai ngai.
23 And all the kings of the earth desired to see the face of Solomon, that they might hear the wisdom which God had given in his heart.
Pathen loh a lungbuei ah a khueh pah coeng dongah anih kah cueihnah hnatun hamla diklai manghai boeih loh Solomon kah maelhmai te a tlap uh.
24 And every year they brought him presents, vessels of silver and of gold, and garments, and armour, and spices, and horses, and mules.
Amih loh a khocang neh cak hnopai khaw, sui hnopai khaw, himbai, lungpok haica khaw, botui khaw, marhang neh muli-marhang khaw, olka nen khaw a kum, kum ah rhip a khuen pauh.
25 And Solomon had forty thousand horses in the stables, and twelve thousand chariots, and horsemen, and he placed them in the cities of the chariots, and where the king was in Jerusalem.
Solomon taengah marhang neh leng im thawng li, marhang caem thawng hlai nit om. Te rhoek te leng khopuei khui neh Jerusalem kah manghai taengah a khoem.
26 And he exercised authority over all the kings from the river Euphrates to the land of the Philistines, and to the borders of Egypt.
Te phoeiah tuiva lamloh Philisti khohmuen hil khaw, Egypt khorhi hil khaw manghai boeih soah aka taemrhai la om.
27 And he made silver as plentiful in Jerusalem as stones: and cedars as common as the sycamores, which grow in the plains.
Manghai loh cak te Jerusalem ah lungto bangla a khueh tih lamphai te kolrhawk ah aka ding thaihae bangla a hawn.
28 And horses were brought to him out of Egypt, and out of all countries.
Te phoeiah Egypt lamkah neh diklai pum lamkah marhang te Solomon hamla a khuen uh.
29 Now the rest of the acts of Solomon first and last are written in the words of Nathan the prophet, and in the boobs of Ahias the Silonite, and in the vision of Addo the seer, against Jeroboam the son of Nabat.
Solomon kah ol coih a tong lamloh a bawt khaw tonghma Nathan kah olka khui neh Shiloh Ahijah kah tonghma ol khuiah khaw, Nebat capa Jeroboam kongah khohmu Iddo kah Iddo manghmuh khuiah khaw a daek uh moenih a?
30 And Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel forty years.
Solomon tah Israel boeih te Jerusalem ah kum sawmli a manghai thil.
31 And he slept with his fathers: and they buried him in the city of David: and Roboam his son reigned in his stead.
Solomon te a napa rhoek taengla khoem uh tih a napa David khopuei ah a up uh. Te phoeiah a capa Rehoboam te anih yueng la manghai.
