7 And Solomon has twelve officers over all Israel, and they have sustained the king and his household—a month in the year is on each one for sustenance;
Solomon taegah Israel pum yueng la aka pai rhoek he hlai nit lo tih manghai neh a imkhui te a cangbam uh. Cangbam ham te kum khat khui hla khat ah pakhat a om pah.
8 and these [are] their names: Ben-Hur in the hill-country of Ephraim;
Amih ming he Ephraim tlang ah Benhur,

12 Baana Ben-Ahilud [has] Taanach and Megiddo, and all Beth-Shean, which [is] by Zartanah beneath Jezreel, from Beth-Shean to Abel-Meholah, to beyond Jokneam;

13 Ben-Geber, in Ramoth-Gilead, has the small towns of Jair son of Manasseh, which [are] in Gilead; he has a portion of Argob that [is] in Bashan—sixty great cities [with] wall and bronze bar;

20 Judah and Israel [are] many, as the sand that [is] by the sea for multitude, eating and drinking and rejoicing.
Judah neh Israel he a hlangmi lamtah tuipuei kah laivin bangla ping uh tih a caak, a ok neh a kohoe.
21 And Solomon has been ruling over all the kingdoms, from the River [to] the land of the Philistines and to the border of Egypt: they are bringing a present near, and serving Solomon, all [the] days of his life.
Solomon long he Philisti khohmuen kah tuiva lamloh Egypt khorhi duela ram tom te a taemrhai. Khocang te a khuen uh tih a hing tue khuiah Solomon taengah thotat uh.
22 And the provision of Solomon for one day is thirty cors of flour, and sixty cors of meal,
Te vaengah hnin at dongkah Solomon kah a caak he, vaidam kore sawmthum neh buh kore sawmrhuk lo.
23 ten fat oxen, and twenty feeding oxen, and one hundred sheep, apart from deer, and roe, and fallow-deer, and fatted beasts of the stalls,
Saelhung pumlen pumrha, saelhung luemdawn pumkul, boiva yakhat, rhangrhaeh neh kirhang khaw, sayuk neh vathawt a thapaduek khaw om pueng.
24 for he is ruling over all beyond the river, from Tiphsah and to Gaza, over all the kings beyond the River, and he has peace from all his surrounding servants.
Tiphsah lamloh tuiva rhalvangan boeih neh Gaza hil, tuiva rhalvangan kah manghai boeih te khaw a taemrhai. Te vaengah rhoepnah te anih ham kaepvai kah a rhalvangan boeih ah om.
25 And Judah dwells—and Israel—in confidence, each under his vine, and under his fig tree, from Dan even to Beer-Sheba, all the days of Solomon.
Judah neh Israel kah hlang he Solomon tue khuiah tah Dan lamloh Beersheba hil amah misur hmui neh a thaibu hmuiah ngaikhuek la kho a sak.
26 And Solomon has forty thousand stalls of horses for his chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen.
Solomon taengah a ngoldoelh ham marhang im thawng sawmli neh marhang caem thawng hlai nit om.
27 And these officers have sustained King Solomon and everyone drawing near to the table of King Solomon, each [in] his month; they let nothing be lacking.
Te rhoek loh manghai Solomon te a cangbam uh tih a pai puei uh. Amah hla khat ah hlang pakhat neh manghai Solomon kah caboei taengla aka mop boeih khaw hnopai neh mueh uh pawh.
28 And the barley and the straw, for horses and for dromedaries, they bring to the place where they are, each according to his ordinance.
Marhang ham neh leng marhang ham cangtun neh cangkong khaw, hlang loh amah kah hamsum bangla a om nah hmuen la pahoi a thak uh coeng.
29 And God gives very much wisdom and understanding to Solomon, and breadth of heart, as the sand that [is] on the edge of the sea;
Pathen loh Solomon te cueihnah a paek dongah a lungcuei khaw muep ping. Te vaengah lungbuei te tuipuei tuikaeng kah laivin bangla a daang a ka pah.
30 and the wisdom of Solomon is greater than the wisdom of any of the sons of the east, and [greater] than all the wisdom of Egypt;
Solomon kah cueihnah tah khothoeng ca boeih kah cueihnah lakah khaw, Egypt kah cueihnah cungkuem lakah khaw yet.
31 and he is wiser than all men, [wiser] than Ethan the Ezrahite, and Heman, and Chalcol, and Darda, sons of Mahol, and his name is in all the surrounding nations.
Hlang boeih lakah khaw, Mahol koca rhoek Ethan, Ezrakhi, Heman neh Khalkol, Darda lakah khaw cueih. Te dongah khotaeng namtom boeih taengah khaw a ming om.
32 And he speaks three thousand allegories, and his songs [are] one thousand and five;
thawng thum a thui tih a laa khaw thawng khat panga om.
33 and he speaks concerning the trees, from the cedar that [is] in Lebanon, even to the hyssop that is coming out in the wall, and he speaks concerning the livestock, and concerning the bird, and concerning the creeping things, and concerning the fishes,
Thingkung te Lebanon kah lamphai lamloh pangbueng lamkah aka poe pumpiding hil khaw a thui. Rhamsa kawng neh vaa kawng khaw, rhulcai kawng neh nga kawng khaw a thui.
34 and there come out [those] of all the peoples to hear the wisdom of Solomon, from all kings of the earth who have heard of his wisdom.
A cueihnah te a yaak uh vaengah pilnam cungkuem lamlong khaw, diklai manghai boeih lamlong khaw Solomon kah cueihnah te hnatun ham a paan uh.
