< 1 Kings 10 >
1 And the Queene of Sheba hearing ye fame of Salomon (concerning the Name of the Lord) came to proue him with hard questions.
Awo kabaka omukazi ow’e Seeba bwe yawulira ettutumo lya Sulemaani n’okwagala kwe yalina eri Mukama, n’ajja amugezese n’ebibuuzo ebizibu.
2 And she came to Ierusalem with a verie great traine, and camels that bare sweete odours, and golde exceeding much, and precious stones: and shee came to Salomon, and communed with him of all that was in her heart.
Yatuuka mu Yerusaalemi, n’ekibiina ky’abantu ekinene ennyo, n’eŋŋamira ezaali zeetisse ebyakaloosa, ne zaabu ennyingi ennyo, n’amayinja ag’omuwendo. Yanyumya ne Sulemaani ku ebyo byonna ebyali ku mutima gwe.
3 And Salomon declared vnto her all her questions: nothing was hid from the King, which he expounded not vnto her.
Awo Sulemaani n’addamu ebibuuzo byonna, era tewaali na kimu ku byo ekyamuzibuwalira.
4 Then the Queene of Sheba sawe all Salomons wisedome, and the house that he had built,
Kabaka omukazi ow’e Seeba bwe yalaba amagezi ga Sulemaani ago gonna, n’olubiri lwe yazimba,
5 And the meate of his table, and the sitting of his seruants, and the order of his ministers, and their apparel, and his drinking vessels, and his burnt offrings, that he offered in the house of the Lord, and she was greatly astonied.
n’emmere eyagabulwanga ku mmeeza ye, n’engeri abakungu be gye baatuuzibwangamu, n’ennyambala y’abaddu be, n’abasenero be, n’ebiweebwayo ebyokebwa bye yawangayo mu yeekaalu ya Mukama, ne yeewunya nnyo.
6 And shee sayde vnto the King, It was a true worde that I heard in mine owne lande of thy sayings, and of thy wisedome.
N’amugamba nti, “Bye nawulira nga ndi mu nsi yange, ku ebyo by’okoze n’amagezi go, bya mazima.
7 Howebeit I beleeued not this report till I came, and had seene it with mine eyes: but lo, ye one halfe was not tolde mee: for thou hast more wisedome and prosperitie, then I haue heard by report.
Ssakkiriza bigambo ebyo okutuusa lwe neesitukira ne nzija neerabireko n’agange. Kya mazima ddala nabulirwako kitundu butundu kyokka; kubanga amagezi go, n’obugagga bwo bisinga ku ebyo bye nawulira.
8 Happy are the men, happie are these thy seruants, which stande euer before thee, and heare thy wisedome.
Abasajja bo nga beesiimye! N’abakungu abayimirira mu maaso go ne bawulira ebigambo eby’amagezi nga beesiimye!
9 Blessed be the Lord thy God, which loued thee, to set thee on the throne of Israel, because the Lord loued Israel for euer and made thee King to doe equitie and righteousnesse.
Yeebazibwe Mukama Katonda wo akusanyukira era akutadde ku ntebe ey’obwakabaka bwa Isirayiri. Olw’okwagala kwa Mukama okutaggwaawo, akufudde kabaka, okukuuma obwenkanya n’obutuukirivu.”
10 And she gaue the King sixe score talents of golde, and of sweete odours exceeding much, and precious stones. There came no more such aboundance of sweete odours, as the Queene of Sheba gaue to King Salomon.
N’agabira kabaka ttani nnya eza zaabu, n’ebyakaloosa bingi nnyo nnyini, n’amayinja ag’omuwendo. Tewaaleetebwa nate byakaloosa byenkana awo obungi ng’ebyo kabaka omukazi ow’e Seeba bye yawa Sulemaani.
11 The nauie also of Hiram (that caried gold from Ophir) brought likewise great plentie of Almuggim trees from Ophir and precious stones.
(Emmeeri za Kiramu zaaleetanga zaabu okuva e Ofiri, n’emitoogo mingi, era n’amayinja ag’omuwendo.
12 And the King made of ye Almuggim trees pillars for the house of the Lord, and for ye Kings palace, and made harpes and psalteries for singers. There came no more such Almuggim trees, nor were any more seene vnto this day.
Kabaka yakozesa emitoogo okukola empagi za yeekaalu ya Mukama Katonda n’ez’olubiri lw’obwakabaka, n’okukola ennanga, n’entongooli z’abayimbi. Tewalabikanga mitoogo mingi bwe gityo n’okutuusa ku lunaku lwa leero.)
13 And King Salomon gaue vnto the Queene of Sheba, whatsoeuer she would aske, besides that, which Salomon gaue her of his kingly liberalitie: so she returned and went to her owne countrey, both shee, and her seruantes.
Awo kabaka Sulemaani n’awa kabaka omukazi ow’e Seeba byonna bye yayagala ne bye yasaba, obutassaako ebyo Sulemaani bye yamuwa okuva ku byobugagga bw’obwakabaka bwe. Oluvannyuma kabaka omukazi ow’e Seeba n’addayo mu nsi ye n’ekibiina ky’abantu be, be yajja nabo.
14 Also the weight of golde, that came to Salomon in one yeere, was sixe hundreth three score and six talents of gold,
Obuzito obwa zaabu obwaleetebwanga eri Sulemaani buli mwaka bwali ttani amakumi abiri mu ssatu,
15 Besides that he had of marchant men and of the marchandises of them that solde spices, and of all the Kinges of Arabia, and of the princes of the countrey.
nga tobaliddeeko musolo ogwawebwangayo abasuubuzi n’ab’ebyamaguzi, ate era n’ogwasoloozebwanga okuva ku bakabaka Abawalabu bonna ne bagavana.
16 And King Salomon made two hundreth targets of beaten golde, sixe hundreth shekels of gold went to a target:
Kabaka Sulemaani yaweesa engabo ennene ebikumi bibiri mu zaabu, buli ngabo ng’erimu kilo ssatu n’ekitundu eza zaabu.
17 And three hundreth shieldes of beaten golde, three pound of gold went to one shielde: and the King put them in the house of the wood of Lebanon.
Yakola n’engabo entono ebikumi bisatu, nga nazo za zaabu, buli ngabo nga ya kilo emu n’ekitundu eza zaabu. Ezo zonna kabaka yaziterekanga mu lubiri olwazimbibwa mu miti egyava mu kibira kya Lebanooni.
18 Then the King made a great throne of yuorie, and couered it with the best golde.
Awo kabaka n’akola entebe ey’obwakabaka ennene ddala nga ya masanga n’agibikkako zaabu ennongoose.
19 And the throne had six steps, and the top of the throne was round behind, and there were stayes on either side on the place of the throne, and two lions standing by the stayes.
Entebe ey’obwakabaka yalina amadaala mukaaga, waggulu waayo aweesigamwa nga weekulungirivu. Eruuyi n’eruuyi w’entebe waaliyo empologoma nga ziyimiridde ku mabbali g’emikono.
20 And there stoode twelue lions on the sixe steps on either side: there was not the like made in any kingdome.
Empologoma kkumi na bbiri zaali ku madaala mukaaga, eruuyi mukaaga n’eruuyi mukaaga. Tewaali ntebe ndala yonna ey’obwakabaka eyali ekoleddwa eri ng’eyo mu bwakabaka obulala bwonna mu biseera ebyo.
21 And all King Salomons drinking vessels were of golde, and all the vessels of the house of the woode of Lebanon were of pure golde, none were of siluer: for it was nothing esteemed in the dayes of Salomon.
Ebikompe byonna ebya kabaka Sulemaani byali bya zaabu, ne byonna ebyali mu lubiri lwe olwakolebwa mu kibira kya Lebanooni. Tewali kyakolebwa mu ffeeza, kubanga ffeeza teyali ya muwendo nnyo mu biro ebyo.
22 For the King had on the sea the nauie of Tharshish with the nauie of Hiram: once in three yere came the nauie of Tharshish, and brought golde and siluer, yuorie, and apes and peacockes.
Kabaka yalina ebyombo ebya maguzi ku nnyanja ebyakozesebwanga awamu n’ebya Kiramu, ebyaleetanga zaabu, ne ffeeza, n’amasanga, n’enkobe n’enkima eza buli ngeri omulundi gumu mu buli myaka esatu.
23 So King Salomon exceeded all the kings of the earth both in riches and in wisedome.
Kabaka Sulemaani yalina obugagga bungi nnyo nnyini, n’amagezi mangi nnyo okusinga bakabaka abalala bonna ku nsi.
24 And al the world sought to see Salomon, to heare his wisedome, which God had put in his heart,
Ensi yonna yanoonyanga era yeesunganga okulaba ku Sulemaani n’okuwuliriza amagezi, Katonda ge yamuwa.
25 And they brought euery man his present, vessels of siluer, and vessels of golde, and raiment, and armour, and sweete odours, horses and mules, from yeere to yeere.
Buli mwaka, buli omu eyajjanga okumukyalira, yamuleeteranga ekirabo, oluusi yabeeranga zaabu ne ffeeza, oluusi ngoye, oluusi byakulwanyisa, oluusi byakaloosa, oluusi mbalaasi n’ennyumbu.
26 Then Salomon gathered together charrets and horsemen: and he had a thousand and foure hundreth charets, and twelue thousande horsemen, whome hee placed in the charet cities, and with the King at Ierusalem.
Sulemaani yakuŋŋaanya embalaasi n’amagaali, era yalina amagaali lukumi mu bina, n’abeebagazi b’embalaasi omutwalo gumu mu enkumi bbiri, be yakuumiranga mu bibuga omwakuumirwanga amagaali, ne mu Yerusaalemi okumpi naye.
27 And the King gaue siluer in Ierusalem as stones, and gaue cedars as the wilde figtrees that growe abundantly in the plaine.
Kabaka n’afuula ffeeza okuba ng’amayinja aga bulijjo mu Yerusaalemi, n’emivule n’agifuula okuba ng’emisukamooli egiri mu biwonvu olw’obungi bwagyo.
28 Also Salomon had horses brought out of Egypt, and fine linen: the Kings marchants receiued the linen for a price.
Embalaasi za Sulemaani zaagulibwanga mu Misiri.
29 There came vp and went out of Egypt some charet, worth sixe hundreth shekels of siluer: that is, one horse, an hundreth and fiftie and thus they brought horses to all the Kings of the Hittites and to the Kings of Aram by their meanes.
Eggaali zaagulibwanga kilo musanvu eza ffeeza, na buli mbalaasi ng’egulibwa kilo emu n’ekitundu eza ffeeza mu Misiri. Ate era baazitunzanga ne bakabaka ab’Abakiiti ne bakabaka ab’e Busuuli.
