20 Judah and Israel had become as numerous as the sand on the seashore. They ate, they drank, they were happy.
Pusiyen mwet Judah ac Israel oana puk weacn uh. Elos mongo ac nim ac engan.
21 Solomon ruled over all the kingdoms from the Euphrates River to the land of the Philistines, right up to the border of Egypt. They presented tribute to Solomon and served him during his lifetime.
Tokosrai lal Solomon sisani facl nukewa e ke Infacl Euphrates me nwe ke acn Philistia, ac masrol nu Egypt. Mwet inge nukewa moli tax nu sel, ac orekma nu sel ke lusen moul lal nufon.
22 The food required every day for Solomon's court was thirty cors of the best flour and sixty cors of meal;
Enenu lal Solomon nu inkul sin tokosra ke kais sie len pa: pak in flao srik kosra siofok lumngaul, ac pak in flao yohk kosra tolfoko,
23 ten fattened cattle, twenty range cattle, one hundred sheep, as well as deer, gazelles, roe deer, and fattened poultry.
cow muta in kalkal singoul, ac cow forfor saya longoul, ac sheep siofok, sayen na kosro deer, gazelle, roebuck, ac won.
24 For Solomon ruled over the whole region west of the Euphrates, from Tiphsah to Gaza—over all the kingdoms west of the Euphrates. And he had peace on all sides around him. He had peace on every border.
Solomon el leumi facl nukewa roto in Infacl Euphrates, liki acn Tiphsah ke infacl Euphrates, nwe ke siti Gaza nu roto. Tokosra nukewa roto in Infacl Euphrates elos orekma nu sel, ac oasr misla ke facl nukewa ma oan raunella.
25 During Solomon's lifetime, everyone in Judah and Israel lived in safety, from Dan to Beersheba. Each one had their own vine and fig tree.
Ke lusen moul lal Solomon, mwet nukewa in acn Judah ac Israel elos mutana in misla ac wangin mwe fosrnga. Kais sie sou oasr ima in grape ac sak fig sunalos.
26 Solomon had 40,000 stalls for his chariot horses, and 12,000 charioteers.
Oasr angngaul tausin nien muta lun horse in chariot natul Solomon, ac singoul luo tausin horse in mweun natul.
27 Every month the area governors provided in turn food for King Solomon and all who ate at his table. They made sure that nothing was missing.
Mwet suksuk singoul luo lal inge, elos akoo mwe mongo nun Tokosra Solomon ac mwet welul ke tepu lal, kais sie mwet ke malem lal. Elos fosrngakin mwe enenu nukewa.
28 They also delivered barley and straw where they were needed for the chariot horses and cart-horses.
Kais sie mwet suksuk ac srukak pac ma kunal ke barley ac mah nu yen ma eneneyuk we. Ma inge ma nun horse ac kosro saya ma orekmakinyuk.
29 God gave to Solomon wisdom, very great discernment, and understanding as extensive as the sand on the seashore.
God El sang nu sel Solomon lalmwetmet, ac lemlem, ac etauk yoklana — alukela ma ku in srikeyuki.
30 Solomon's wisdom was greater than that of all the Eastern wise men, greater than all of Egypt's wisdom.
Ouinge Solomon el lalmwetmet liki mwet lalmwetmet lun acn kutulap, oayapa mwet lalmwetmet lun Egypt.
31 He was wiser than anyone, wiser than Ethan the Ezrahite, wiser than Heman, Calcol, and Darda, sons of Mahol. His reputation spread through the nations around.
El lalmwetmet liki mwet nukewa: el lalmwetmet lukel Ethan mwet Ezrah, ac Heman, Calcol, ac Darda, wen tolu natul Mahol. Pweng kacl fahsrelik nu in facl nukewa ma oan apkuran nu we.
32 Solomon composed three thousand proverbs and one thousand and five songs.
El orala soakas tolu tausin, ac kinala on pus liki sie tausin.
33 He was able to discuss knowledge of trees, from the cedar in Lebanon to the hyssop that grows in the wall. He taught about animals, birds, reptiles, and fish.
El sramsram pac ke sak, ac mwe yokyok, mutawauk ke sak cedar lun Lebanon nwe ke sak hyssop su kap pe pot uh; ac el sramsram pac ke kosro, won, wet lulap, ac ik uh.
34 People from all nations came to hear Solomon's wisdom. They were sent by all the kings of the earth, who had heard about his wisdom.
Tokosra nukewa fin faclu lohng ke lalmwetmet lal inge, ac elos supwala mwet in lohng sramsram lalmwetmet lal.
