1 Kings 10
1 And, when, the queen of Sheba, heard the report of Solomon, as pertaining to the Name of Yahweh, she came to prove him, with abstruse questions.
Zvino mambokadzi weShebha akati anzwa nezvomukurumbira waSoromoni noukama hwake nezita raJehovha, akauya kuzomuedza nemibvunzo yakaoma.
2 Yea she came to Jerusalem with a very heavily-laden train, of camels bearing spices, and gold in great abundance, and precious stones, —and, when she was come to Solomon, she spake unto him all that was near her heart;
Akasvika paJerusarema navanhu vakawanda, nengamera dzakanga dzakatakura zvinonhuhwira, goridhe rakawanda kwazvo, namatombo anokosha, akauya kuna Soromoni akataura naye pamusoro pezvose zvaiva mupfungwa dzake.
3 and Solomon answered her all her questions, —there was nothing hidden from the king, which he told her not.
Soromoni akapindura mibvunzo yake yose; hapana chakanga chakanyanya kuomera mambo kuti amutsanangurire.
4 And, when the queen of Sheba had seen all the wisdom of Solomon, —and the house which he had built;
Mambokadzi weShebha akati aona uchenjeri hwose hwaSoromoni nomuzinda waakanga avaka,
5 and the food of his table, and the seated assembly of his servants, and the attendance of his ministers with their apparel, and his cupbearers, and his ascent by which he ascended unto the house of Yahweh, there was in her no more spirit.
zvokudya zvaiva patafura yake, urongwa hwokugara kwamachinda ake, varanda vake vaimushandira nezvipfeko zvavo, vadiri vake, nezvipiriso zvinopiswa zvaaiita patemberi yaJehovha, akapererwa.
6 And she said unto the king, True, was the word which I heard in mine own land, —concerning thine affairs, and concerning thy wisdom.
Akati kuna mambo, “Zvose zvandakanzwa munyika mangu pamusoro pamabasa enyu nouchenjeri hwenyu zvaiva zvechokwadi.
7 Howbeit I believed not the words, until that I had come and mine own eyes had seen, and lo! there had not been told me, the half, —thou dost exceed, in wisdom and prosperity, even the report which I heard!
Asi handina kutenda zvinhu izvi kusvikira ndauya ndikazviona nameso angu chaiwo. Zvechokwadi, zvandakaudzwa hazvisviki pahafu yezviripo; muuchenjeri nomuupfumi mapfuura zvose zvandakanzwa.
8 How happy, are thy wives, how happy, are these thy servants, —who do stand before thee continually, who hear thy wisdom!
Vanhu venyu vanofanira kuva vanofara sei! Machinda enyu anofara sei, ivo vanomira pamberi penyu nguva dzose nokunzwa uchenjeri hwenyu!
9 Yahweh thy God be blessed, who delighted in thee, to set thee upon the throne of Israel, —because Yahweh loveth Israel unto times age-abiding, therefore hath he appointed thee to be king, to execute justice and righteousness.
Jehovha Mwari wenyu ngaarumbidzwe, iye akafadzwa nemi akakuisai pachigaro choushe chaIsraeri. Jehovha akada Israeri nokusingaperi, nokuda kwaizvozvo akuitai mambo kuti muchengetedze kururamisira noutsvene.”
10 And she gave unto the king a hundred and twenty talents of gold, and spices in great abundance, and precious stones, —there came in no more, such spice for abundance, as that which the queen of Sheba gave unto King Solomon.
Akapa mambo matarenda zana namakumi maviri egoridhe, zvinonhuhwira kwazvo, namatombo anokosha. Hapana mumwe akazouya nezvinonhuhwira zvakawanda sezvakauyiwa nazvo namambokadzi weShebha kuna Mambo Soromoni.
11 Moreover also, the fleet of Hiram, which brought gold from Ophir, brought in, from Ophir sandal-wood in great abundance, and precious stones.
Zvikepe zvaHiramu zvakauya negoridhe kubva kuOfiri; uyewo zvakauya nemiti yemiarumugi namatombo anokosha kubva ikoko.
12 So the king made of the sandal-wood a footpath to the house of Yahweh, and to the house of the king, lyres also and harps, for the singers, —there hath neither come in such sandal-wood, nor been seen, unto this day.
Mambo akashandisa miarumugi iyi kuita mbiru dzetemberi yaJehovha, nedzomuzinda wamambo, uye kugadzira mbira nemitengeranwa zvaishandiswa navaimbi. Miti yemiarumugi yakawanda kudai haina kuzombouyiswa munyika zvakare kana kuonekwa zvakare kubvira musi iwoyo.
13 And, when, King Solomon, had given unto the queen of Sheba, all her desire, which she asked, besides that which he gave her as the bounty of King Solomon, she turned, and went to her own land, she and her servants.
Mambo Soromoni akapa mambokadzi weShebha zvaaida nezvaakakumbira, pamusoro pezvaakamupa zvaibva papfuma yake youmambo. Ipapo akabva asimuka navaranda vake akadzokera kunyika yake.
14 And it came to pass that, the weight of the gold which came in unto Solomon in one year, was six hundred and sixty-six talents of gold;
Uremu hwegoridhe raitambirwa naSoromoni gore negore hwaisvika matarenda mazana matanhatu namakumi matanhatu namatanhatu,
15 besides the tribute of the subjugated, and of the travelling merchants, —and of all the kings of Arabia, and the pashas of the land.
pasingaverengerwi mari yomutero yairipiswa vatengesi vakuru navatengesi vadiki, namadzimambo ose eArabhia navabati venyika.
16 And King Solomon made two hundred shields, of beaten gold, six hundred [shekels] of gold, laid he upon one shield;
Mambo Soromoni akaita mazana maviri enhoo huru dzegoridhe rakarohwa nenyundo; nhoo imwe neimwe yaiva yakagadzirwa namazana matanhatu amashekeri egoridhe.
17 and three hundred bucklers, of beaten gold, one hundred and fifty shekels of gold, laid he upon one buckler, —and the king put them in the house of the forest of Lebanon.
Akaitawo mazana matatu enhoo diki dzegoridhe rakarohwa nenyundo, nhoo imwe neimwe yakagadzirwa nemamina matatu egoridhe. Mambo akadziisa muMuzinda weSango reRebhanoni.
18 And the king made a great throne of ivory, —and overlaid it with gold from Uphaz.
Mambo akaitawo chigaro chikuru choushe chenyanga dzenzou akachifukidza negoridhe rakanakisisa.
19 There were, six steps, to the throne, and there was, a circular top, to the throne, behind it, and there were supports on this side and on that, unto the place of the seat, —with two lions standing beside the supports;
Chigaro ichi chaiva namatanhiko matanhatu, uye musoro wechigaro wakanga uri wedenderedzwa shure kwacho. Kumativi maviri echigaro kwaiva nezvitsigiro zvamaoko zviviri, uye shumba mbiri dzakanga dzakamira pamativi ezvitsigiro zviviri izvi.
20 and, twelve lions, were standing there, upon the six steps, on this side and on that, —there had never been made the like, for any of the kingdoms.
Shumba gumi nembiri dzakanga dzakamira pamatanhiko matanhatu, imwe chete kwaiperera danhiko rimwe nerimwe. Hakuna zvakadai zvakanga zvamboitirwa humwe umambo.
21 And, all the drinking vessels of King Solomon, were of gold, and, all the vessels of the house of the forest of Lebanon, were of pure gold, —none was of silver, it was accounted in the days of Solomon, as nothing.
Midziyo yose yaMambo Soromoni yokunwira yaiva yegoridhe rakanakisisa. Hapana chakanga chakagadzirwa nesirivha, nokuti sirivha yakanga isingakoshi zvikuru mumazuva aSoromoni.
22 For, a fleet of Tarshish, had the king, at sea, with the fleet of Hiram, —once in three years, came in the fleet of Tarshish, bringing gold and silver, ivory and apes, and peacocks.
Mambo aiva nechitsama chezvikepe zveTashishi pagungwa izvo zvaiva pamwe chete nezvikepe zvaHiramu. Zvikepe zveTashishi izvi zvaiuya kamwe chete mumakore matatu zviine goridhe, sirivha, nyanga dzenzou, mapikoko namakudo.
23 So King Solomon became greater than any of the kings of the earth, —for riches and for wisdom.
Mambo Soromoni aikunda mamwe madzimambo ose panyika paupfumi napauchenjeri.
24 And, all the earth, did seek the face of Solomon, —to hear his wisdom, which God had put in his heart.
Nyika yose yakada kuzosangana naSoromoni kuti inzwe uchenjeri hwakanga waiswa mumwoyo make naMwari.
25 And, they, did bring every man his present—vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and garments, and armour, and spices, horses and mules, —a rate of a year in a year.
Gore negore munhu wose aiuya nechipo, zvinhu zvakagadzirwa nesirivha nezvegoridhe, mbatya, zvombo nezvinonhuhwira, namabhiza namanyurusi.
26 And Solomon gathered together chariots and horsemen, and so it was that he had a thousand and four hundred chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen, —for whom he found place in the chariot cities, and near the king, in Jerusalem.
Soromoni akaunganidza ngoro namabhiza; akanga ane ngoro dzinokwana chiuru namazana mana namabhiza anokwana zviuru gumi nezviviri, zvaaichengeta kumaguta engoro nomuJerusarema maaivawo.
27 And the king caused silver in Jerusalem to be as stones, —cedars also, caused he to be as the sycamores that are in the lowlands, for abundance.
Mambo akaita kuti sirivha iwanikwe pose pose samatombo muJerusarema uye misidhari yakawanda kunge mionde yomuzasi mamakomo.
28 And the horses that Solomon had were, an export, out of Egypt, —and, a company of the merchants of the king, used to fetch, a drove, at a price,
Mabhiza aSoromoni aitengwa kuIjipiti nokuKuwe vatengesi vamambo vainoatengera kuKuwe.
29 And a chariot came up and forth out of Egypt, for six hundred shekels of silver and a horse for a hundred and fifty, —and, so, for all the kings of the Hittites, and for the kings of Syria, by their means, came they forth.
Vakatenga imwe ngoro kuIjipiti namashekeri esirivha mazana matanhatu, rimwe bhiza rikaita zana namakumi mashanu. Vaitengeserawo kumadzimambo avaHiti navaAramu.
