1 Kings 4
1 So king Solomon was king over all Israel.
Enti Ɔhene Salomo dii Israel nyinaa so hene.
2 And these were the princes which he had; Azariah the son of Zadok the priest,
Na eyinom ne ne mpanyimfo: Sadok babarima Asaria.
3 Elihoreph and Ahiah, the sons of Shisha, scribes; Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud, the recorder.
Sisa mmabarima Elihoref ne Ahiya na na wɔyɛ asennii akyerɛwfo no. Ahilud babarima Yehosafat na na ɔyɛ adehye abakɔsɛm kyerɛwfo.
4 And Benaiah the son of Jehoiada was over the host: and Zadok and Abiathar were the priests:
Yehoiada babarima Benaia na na ɔyɛ asraafo so sahene no; Sadok ne Abiatar na na wɔyɛ asɔfo.
5 And Azariah the son of Nathan was over the officers: and Zabud the son of Nathan was principal officer, and the king's friend:
Natan babarima Asaria na na ɔyɛ amansin amradofo titenani. Natan babarima Sabud a na ɔyɛ ɔsɔfo no, na na ɔyɛ ɔhene fotufo a ɔde ne ho to ne so.
6 And Ahishar was over the household: and Adoniram the son of Abda was over the tribute.
Ahisar na na ɔyɛ ahemfi sohwɛfo. Abda babarima Adoniram na na ɔhwɛ adwumayɛfo so.
7 And Solomon had twelve officers over all Israel, which provided victuals for the king and his household: each man his month in a year made provision.
Na Salomo wɔ amansin amradofo dumien wɔ Israel nyinaa mu. Na wɔn adwuma ne sɛ, wogye nnuan fi ɔmanfo nkyɛn de kɔma ahemfifo. Wɔn mu biara hwɛ di saa dwuma yi ɔsram baako wɔ afe biara mu.
8 And these are their names: The son of Hur, in mount Ephraim:
Saa amradofo dumien no din na edidi so yi: Na Ben-Hur wɔ Efraim bepɔw asase so.
9 The son of Dekar, in Makaz, and in Shaalbim, and Beth-shemesh, and Elon-beth-hanan:
Na Ben-Deker hwɛ Makas, Saalbim, Bet-Semes ne Elon-Bet-Hanan so.
10 The son of Hesed, in Aruboth; to him pertained Sochoh, and all the land of Hepher:
Na Ben-Hesed hwɛ Arubot a Soko ne nsase a ɛwɔ Hefer nyinaa ka ho no so.
11 The son of Abinadab, in all the region of Dor; which had Taphath the daughter of Solomon to wife:
Na Ben-Abinadab wɔ Nafat-Dor. (Ɔwaree Salomo babea Tafat).
12 Baana the son of Ahilud; to him pertained Taanach and Megiddo, and all Beth-shean, which is by Zartanah beneath Jezreel, from Beth-shean to Abel-meholah, even unto the place that is beyond Jokneam:
Na Ahilud babarima Baana hwɛ Taanak ne Megido ne Bet-Sean a ɛbɛn Saretan a ɛwɔ Yesreel anafo ne nkurow a efi Bet-Sean, de kosi Abel-Mehola, tra kosi Yokmeam akyi no so.
13 The son of Geber, in Ramoth-gilead; to him pertained the towns of Jair the son of Manasseh, which are in Gilead; to him also pertained the region of Argob, which is in Bashan, threescore great cities with walls and brasen bars:
Na Ben-Geber wɔ Ramot-Gilead, a Yair nkurow a wɔde too Manase babarima Yair a ɛwɔ Gilead ka ho, wɔ Argob mantam a ɛwɔ Basan a nkuropɔn aduosia a wɔde kɔbere apon asisi ano no ka ho.
14 Ahinadab the son of Iddo had Mahanaim:
Na Ido babarima Abinadab wɔ Mahanaim.
15 Ahimaaz was in Naphtali; he also took Basmath the daughter of Solomon to wife:
Na Ahimaas wɔ Naftali. Ɔno nso waree Salomo babea Basmat.
16 Baanah the son of Hushai was in Asher and in Aloth:
Na Husai babarima Baana wɔ Aser ne Alot.
17 Jehoshaphat the son of Paruah, in Issachar:
Na Parua babarima Yehosafat wɔ Isakar.
18 Shimei the son of Elah, in Benjamin:
Na Ela babarima Simei wɔ Benyamin.
19 Geber the son of Uri was in the country of Gilead, in the country of Sihon king of the Amorites, and of Og king of Bashan; and he was the only officer which was in the land.
Na Uri babarima Geber wɔ Gilead asase so a Amorihene Sihon ne Basanhene Og amantam ka ho. Na amrado baako pɛ na ɔhwɛ Yuda asase so.
20 Judah and Israel were many, as the sand which is by the sea in multitude, eating and drinking, and making merry.
Na nnipa a wɔwɔ Yuda ne Israel no dodow te sɛ mpoano nwea. Nea wonya di ne nea wonya nom no, na wɔn ani sɔ.
21 And Solomon reigned over all kingdoms from the river unto the land of the Philistines, and unto the border of Egypt: they brought presents, and served Solomon all the days of his life.
Salomo dii ahemman nyinaa so, fi Asubɔnten Eufrate kosi Filistifo asase so, de kosi Misraim hye so. Na nnipa a wadi wɔn so wɔ saa nsase no so no de sonkahiri brɛ Salomo, na wɔkɔɔ so som no ne nkwanna nyinaa.
22 And Solomon's provision for one day was thirty measures of fine flour, and threescore measures of meal,
Nnuan a na wohia daa wɔ Salomo ahemfi no yɛ asikresiam pa susukoraa ɔha ne aduonum ne atokosiam susukoraa ahaasa,
23 Ten fat oxen, and twenty oxen out of the pastures, and an hundred sheep, beside harts, and roebucks, and fallowdeer, and fatted fowl.
anantwi a wɔadodɔ wɔ buw mu du, anantwi a wɔde wura ayɛn wɔn aduonu, nguan anaa mmirekyi ɔha, atwe, nnowa, awansan ne nkokɔ a wɔadodɔ.
24 For he had dominion over all the region on this side the river, from Tiphsah even to Azzah, over all the kings on this side the river: and he had peace on all sides round about him.
Na Salomo amantow no yɛ ahenni ahorow a ɛwɔ Asubɔnten Eufrate atɔe fam nyinaa de fi Tifsa kosi Gasa. Na asomdwoe wɔ asase no so mmaa nyinaa.
25 And Judah and Israel dwelt safely, every man under his vine and under his fig tree, from Dan even to Beer-sheba, all the days of Solomon.
Salomo nkwa nna mu nyinaa, Yuda ne Israel nyaa bammɔ tenaa ase asomdwoe mu. Na efi Dan kosi Beer-Seba no, na abusua biara wɔ ne fi ne ne bobe ne borɔdɔma mfikyifuw.
26 And Solomon had forty thousand stalls of horses for his chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen.
Na Salomo wɔ apɔnkɔdan mpem anan ma ne nteaseɛnam apɔnkɔ ne apɔnkɔ mpem dumien.
27 And those officers provided victual for king Solomon, and for all that came unto king Solomon's table, every man in his month: they lacked nothing.
Amansin mu amradofo na na wɔma ɔhene Salomo ne nʼasennii nnuan pɛpɛɛpɛ wɔ wɔn ɔsram ɔsram nnuanma no mu.
28 Barley also and straw for the horses and dromedaries brought they unto the place where the officers were, every man according to his charge.
Na wɔde atoko ne sare a ɛho hia brɛ adehye apɔnkɔ no wɔ wɔn nnae.
29 And Elohim gave Solomon wisdom and understanding exceeding much, and largeness of heart, even as the sand that is on the sea shore.
Onyankopɔn maa Salomo nyansa, ntease ne nhumu a emu nni hwehwɛbea.
30 And Solomon's wisdom excelled the wisdom of all the children of the east country, and all the wisdom of Egypt.
Nokware, na ne nyansa no boro anyansafo a wɔwɔ apuei ne anyansafo a wɔwɔ Misraim nyinaa nyansa so.
31 For he was wiser than all men; than Ethan the Ezrahite, and Heman, and Chalcol, and Darda, the sons of Mahol: and his fame was in all nations round about.
Na onim nyansa sen obiara a Esrahini Etan ne Heman ne Kalkol ne Darda a wɔyɛ Mahel mmabarima no ka ho. Na ne din hyetaa wɔ aman a atwa ne ho ahyia no so.
32 And he spake three thousand proverbs: and his songs were a thousand and five.
Obuu mmɛ mpem abiɛsa, na ɔkyerɛw nnwom apem ne anum.
33 And he spake of trees, from the cedar tree that is in Lebanon even unto the hyssop that springeth out of the wall: he spake also of beasts, and of fowl, and of creeping things, and of fishes.
Na otumi ka afifide biara ho nsɛm, efi Lebanon sida so de kosi adwerɛ a efifi ɔfasu mpaapae mu so. Na otumi ka mmoa, nnomaa, mmoa a wɔwea fam ne nsumnam ho nsɛm nso.
34 And there came of all people to hear the wisdom of Solomon, from all kings of the earth, which had heard of his wisdom.
Enti na ahemfo a wɔwɔ aman afoforo so tu wɔn ananmusifo ba Salomo nkyɛn betie ne nyansasɛm no bi.
