1 And so it came to pass, that, King Solomon, was king, over all Israel.
Kong Salomo var Konge over hele Israel
2 Now, these, were his chief officers of state, —Azariah son of Zadok, the priest;

6 And Ahishar, over the household, —and Adoniram son of Abda, over the tribute.
Ahisjar var Slotshøvedsmand; Adoniram, Abdas Søn, havde Tilsyn med Hoveriarbejdet.
7 And, Solomon, had twelve governors over all Israel, who used to sustain the king and his household, —for a month in the year, was it appointed unto each one, to find sustenance.
Fremdeles havde Salomno tolv Fogeder over hele Israel, som skulde sørge for Kongens og Hoffets Underhold, hver af dem en Måned om Året.
8 And, these, are their names, Ben-hur, in the hill country of Ephraim;
Deres Navne var: Hurs Søn i Efraims Bjerge;

Ba'ana, Ahiluds Søn, havde Ta'anak, Megiddo og hele Bet- Sjean op til Zaretan, neden for Jizre'el fra Bet-Sjean til Abel-Mehola ud over Jokmeam;

Geber, Uris Søn, i Gads Land, det Land, der havde tilhørt Amoriiterkongen Sihon og Kong Og af Basan; der var kun een Foged i det Land.
20 Judah and Israel, were many, as the sand that is by the sea, for multitude, —eating and drinking, and rejoicing.
Juda og Israel var talrige, så talrige som Sandet ved Havet, og de spiste og drak og var glade.
21 And, Solomon, became ruler over all the kingdoms, from the River [even unto] the land of the Philistines, and as far as the boundary of Egypt, —and these were bringing presents, 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, så længe han levede.
22 And it came to pass, that Solomon’s provision for one day was, —thirty measures of fine flour, and sixty measures of meal;
Salomos daglige Bebov af Levnedsmidler var tredive Kor fint Hvedemel og tresindstyve Kor almindeligt Mel,
23 ten fat oxen, and twenty oxen out of the pastures, and a hundred sheep, —besides harts, and gazelles, and roebucks, and fatted fowl.
ti Stykker Fedekvæg, tyve Stykker Græskvæg og hundrede Stykker Småkvæg foruden Hjorte, Gazeller, Antiloper og fede Gæs.
24 For, he, had dominion over all on this side the River, from Tiphsah even as far as Gaza, over all the kings on this side the River, —and he had, peace, on all sides of him, round about.
Thi han herskede over hele Landet hinsides Floden, fra Tifsa til Gaza, over alle Kongerne hinsides Floden, og han håvde Fred rundt om til alle Sider;
25 And Judah and Israel dwelt securely, every man under his own vine, and under his own fig-tree, from Dan even unto Beer-sheba, —all the days of Solomon.
og Juda og Israel boede trygt, så længe Salomo levede, hver Mand under sin Vinstok og sit Figentræ, fra ban til Be'ersjeba.
26 And it came to pass that, Solomon, had forty thousand stalls of horses, for his chariots, —and twelve thousand horsemen.
Og Salomo havde 40 000 Spand Heste til sit Vognhold og 12 000 Ryttere.
27 And these governors provided sustenance for King Solomon, and for all that drew near unto the table of King Solomon, every man in his month, —they let, nought, be lacking.
Og de nævnte Fogeder sørgede for Underhold til Kong Salomo og alle, der havde Adgang til hans Bord, hver i sin Måned, og de lod det ikke skorte på noget;
28 Barley also and crushed straw, for the horses and for the swift beasts, brought they in unto the place where it should be, every man according to his charge.
og Byggen og Strået til Hestene og Forspandene bragte de til det Sted, hvor han var, efter som Turen kom til hver enkelt.
29 And God gave wisdom unto Solomon, and discernment, and very great largeness of heart, —like the sand that is on the shore of the sea:
Gud skænkede Salomo Visdom og Kløgt i såre rigt Mål og en omfattende Forstand, som Sandet ved Havets Bred,
30 so that, the wisdom of Solomon, excelled, the wisdom of all the sons of the East, —and all the wisdom of the Egyptians,
så at Salomos Visdom var større end alle Østerlændingenes og alle Ægypternes Visdom.
31 so that he was wiser than any man—than Ethan the Ezrahite, and Heman and Calcol and Darda, sons of Mahol, —and it came to pass that, his name, was throughout all the nations round about.
Han var visere end alle andre, ja visere end Ezraiten Etan og visere end Heman, Kalkol og Darda, Mabols Sønner, og hans Ry nåede ud til alle Folkeslag rundt om.
32 And he spake three thousand proverbs, —and it came to pass that, his songs, were a thousand and five.
Han fremsagde 3000 Tanke sprog, og Tallet på hans Sange var 1 005"
33 And he discoursed of trees—from the cedar that is in Lebanon, even unto the hyssop, that springeth out in the wall, —and he discoursed of beasts and of birds, and of creeping things, and of fishes.
Han talte om Træerne lige fra Cederen på Libanon til Ysopen, der vokser frem af Muren; og han talte om Dyrene, Fuglene, Krybdyrene og Fiskene.
34 And there came in, of all the peoples, to hear the wisdom of Solomon—of all the kings of the earth, who heard his wisdom.
Fra alle Folkeslag kom man for at lytte til Salomos Visdom, fra alle Jordens Konger, der hørte om hans Visdom.
