20 Judah and Israel were many as the sand which is by the sea in multitude, eating and drinking and making merry.
Orang Yehuda dan orang Israel jumlahnya seperti pasir di tepi laut. Mereka makan dan minum serta bersukaria.
21 And Solomon ruled over all the kingdoms, from the River, and to the land of the Philistines, and to the border of Egypt. They brought tribute and served Solomon all the days of his life.
Maka Salomo berkuasa atas segala kerajaan mulai dari sungai Efrat sampai negeri orang Filistin dan sampai ke tapal batas Mesir. Mereka menyampaikan upeti dan tetap takluk kepada Salomo seumur hidupnya.
22 Solomon's provision for one day was thirty measures of fine flour, and sixty measures of meal,
Adapun persediaan makanan yang diperlukan Salomo untuk sehari ialah tiga puluh kor tepung yang terbaik dan enam puluh kor tepung biasa,
23 ten head of fat cattle, and twenty head of cattle out of the pastures, and one hundred sheep, besides deer, and gazelles, and roebucks, and fattened fowl.
sepuluh ekor lembu gemukan dan dua puluh lembu gembalaan dan seratus ekor domba, belum terhitung rusa, kijang, rusa dandi dan gangsa piaraan,
24 For he had dominion over all on this side the River, from Tiphsah even to Gaza, over all the kings on this side the River: and he had peace on all sides around him.
sebab ia berkuasa atas seluruh tanah di sebelah sini sungai Efrat, mulai dari Tifsah sampai ke Gaza, dan atas semua raja di sebelah sini sungai Efrat; ia dikaruniai damai di seluruh negerinya,
25 Judah and Israel lived safely, every man under his vine and under his fig tree, from Dan even to Beersheba, all the days of Solomon.
sehingga orang Yehuda dan orang Israel diam dengan tenteram, masing-masing di bawah pohon anggur dan pohon aranya, dari Dan sampai Bersyeba seumur hidup Salomo.
26 And Solomon had four thousand stalls of horses for his chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen.
Lagipula Salomo mempunyai kuda empat puluh ribu kandang untuk kereta-keretanya dan dua belas ribu orang berkuda.
27 Those officers provided food for king Solomon, and for all who came to king Solomon's table, every man in his month; they let nothing be lacking.
Dan para kepala daerah itu menjamin makanan raja Salomo serta semua orang yang ikut makan dari meja raja Salomo. Mereka membawanya masing-masing dalam bulan gilirannya dengan tidak mengurangi sesuatu apapun.
28 And they also brought barley and straw for the horses and the steeds to the place where the officers were, every man according to his duty.
Jelai dan jerami untuk kuda-kuda biasa dan kuda-kuda teji dibawa mereka ke tempat yang semestinya, masing-masing menurut tanggungannya.
29 God gave Solomon wisdom and exceptional insight, and very great understanding, even as the sand that is on the seashore.
Dan Allah memberikan kepada Salomo hikmat dan pengertian yang amat besar, serta akal yang luas seperti dataran pasir di tepi laut,
30 Solomon's wisdom excelled the wisdom of all the people of the east, and all the wisdom of Egypt.
sehingga hikmat Salomo melebihi hikmat segala bani Timur dan melebihi segala hikmat orang Mesir.
31 For he was wiser than all men; than Ethan the Ezrahite, and Heman, and Calcol, and Darda, the sons of Mahol: and his fame was in all the nations all around.
Ia lebih bijaksana dari pada semua orang, dari pada Etan, orang Ezrahi itu, dan dari pada Heman, Kalkol dan Darda, anak-anak Mahol; sebab itu ia mendapat nama di antara segala bangsa sekelilingnya.
32 He spoke three thousand proverbs; and his songs were one thousand five.
Ia menggubah tiga ribu amsal, dan nyanyiannya ada seribu lima.
33 He spoke of trees, from the cedar that is in Lebanon even to the hyssop that springs out of the wall; he spoke also of animals, and of birds, and of crawling creatures, and of fish.
Ia bersajak tentang pohon-pohonan, dari pohon aras yang di gunung Libanon sampai kepada hisop yang tumbuh pada dinding batu; ia berbicara juga tentang hewan dan tentang burung-burung dan tentang binatang melata dan tentang ikan-ikan.
34 There came of all peoples to hear the wisdom of Solomon, from all kings of the earth, who had heard of his wisdom.
Maka datanglah orang dari segala bangsa mendengarkan hikmat Salomo, dan ia menerima upeti dari semua raja-raja di bumi, yang telah mendengar tentang hikmatnya itu.
