Juda og Israel var talrige, saa talrige som Sandet ved Havet, og de spiste og drak og var glade.
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.
Og Salomo herskede over alle Rigerne fra Floden til Filisternes Land og Ægyptens Grænse og de bragte Gaver og tjente Salomo, saa længe han levede.

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;
Gud skænkede Salomo Visdom og Kløgt i saare rigt Maal og en omfattende Forstand, som Sandet ved Havets Bred,
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;
