1 Kings 10
1 When the queen of Sheba heard of Solomon's fame concerning the name of Yahweh, she came to test him with hard questions.
E ouvindo a rainha de Saba a fama de Salomão, ácerca do nome do Senhor, veiu proval-o por enigmas.
2 She came to Jerusalem with a very long caravan, with camels loaded with spices, much gold, and many precious gemstones. When she arrived, she told Solomon all that was in her heart.
E veiu a Jerusalem com um mui grande exercito; com camelos carregados de especiarias, e muitissimo oiro, e pedras preciosas: e veiu a Salom o, e disse-lhe tudo quanto tinha no seu coração.
3 Solomon answered all her questions. There was nothing she asked that the king did not answer.
E Salomão lhe declarou todas as suas palavras: nenhuma coisa se escondeu ao rei, que não lhe declarasse.
4 When the queen of Sheba saw all Solomon's wisdom, the palace that he had built,
Vendo pois a rainha de Saba toda a sabedoria de Salomão, e a casa que edificara,
5 the food on his table, the seating of his servants, the work of his servants and their clothing, also his cupbearers, and the manner in which he offered burnt offerings in the house of Yahweh, there was no more breath in her.
E a comida da sua mesa, e o assentar de seus servos, e o estar de seus creados, e os vestidos d'elles, e os seus copeiros, e a sua subida, pela qual subia á casa do Senhor, não houve mais espirito n'ella.
6 She said to the king, “It is true, the report that I heard in my own land of your words and your wisdom.
E disse ao rei: Foi verdade a palavra que ouvi na minha terra, das tuas coisas e da tua sabedoria.
7 I did not believe what I heard until I came here, and now my eyes have seen it. Not half was told me about your wisdom and wealth! You have exceeded the fame that I heard about.
E eu não cria n'aquellas palavras, até que vim, e os meus olhos o viram; eis que me não disseram metade; sobre-pujaste em sabedoria e bens a fama que ouvi.
8 How blessed are your wives, and how blessed are your servants who constantly stand before you, because they hear your wisdom.
Bemaventurados os teus homens, bemaventurados estes teus servos, que estão sempre diante de ti, que ouvem a tua sabedoria!
9 May Yahweh your God be praised, who has taken pleasure in you, who placed you on the throne of Israel. Because Yahweh loved Israel forever, he has made you king, for you to do justice and righteousness!”
Bemdito seja o Senhor teu Deus, que teve agrado em ti, para te pôr no throno de Israel: porque o Senhor ama a Israel para sempre, por isso te estabeleceu rei, para fazeres juizo e justiça.
10 She gave the king 120 talents of gold and a large amount of spices and precious stones. No greater amount of spices as these that the queen of Sheba gave to King Solomon was ever given to him again.
E deu ao rei cento e vinte talentos de oiro, e muitissimas especiarias, e pedras preciosas: nunca veiu especiaria em tanta abundancia, como a que a rainha de Saba deu ao rei Salomão.
11 The fleet of Hiram, which brought gold from Ophir, also brought from Ophir a large amount of almug wood and precious stones.
Tambem as náos d'Hirão, que de Ophir levavam oiro, traziam de Ophir muitissima madeira de Almug, e pedras preciosas.
12 The king made almug wood pillars for the temple of Yahweh and for the king's palace, and harps and lyres for the singers. No such quantity of almug wood has ever come or been seen again to this day.
E d'esta madeira d'Almug fez o rei balaustres para a casa do Senhor, e para a casa do rei, como tambem harpas e alaúdes para os cantores: nunca veiu tal madeira de Almug, nem se viu até o dia d'hoje.
13 King Solomon gave to the queen of Sheba everything she wished for, whatever she asked, in addition to what Solomon gave her of his royal bounty. So she returned to her own land with her servants.
E o rei Salomão deu á rainha de Saba tudo quanto lhe pediu o seu desejo, de mais do que lhe deu, segundo a largueza do rei Salomão: então voltou e partiu para a sua terra, ella e os seus servos.
14 Now the weight of gold that came to Solomon in one year was 666 talents of gold,
E era o peso do oiro que se trazia a Salomão cada anno seiscentos e sessenta e seis talentos de oiro;
15 besides the gold that the traders and merchants brought. All the kings of Arabia and the governors in the country also brought gold and silver to Solomon.
Além do dos negociantes, e do contracto dos especieiros, e de todos os reis da Arabia, e dos governadores da mesma terra.
16 King Solomon made two hundred large shields of beaten gold. Six hundred shekels of gold went into each one.
Tambem o rei Salomão fez duzentos pavezes de oiro batido; seiscentos siclos de oiro mandou pesar para cada pavez;
17 He also made three hundred shields of beaten gold. Three minas of gold went into each shield; the king put them into the Palace of the Forest of Lebanon.
Assim mesmo trezentos escudos de oiro batido; tres arrateis de oiro mandou pesar para cada escudo; e o rei os poz na casa do bosque do Libano.
18 Then the king made a great throne of ivory and overlaid it with the finest gold.
Fez mais o rei um grande throno de marfim, e o cobriu de oiro purissimo.
19 There were six steps to the throne, and the back of it had a rounded top. There were armrests on each side of the seat, and two lions standing beside the armrests.
Tinha este throno seis degraus, e era a cabeça do throno por detraz redonda, e de ambas as bandas tinha encostos até ao assento: e dois leões estavam junto aos encostos.
20 Twelve lions stood on the steps, one on each side of each of the six steps. There was no throne like it in any other kingdom.
Tambem doze leões estavam ali sobre os seis degraus de ambas as bandas: nunca se tinha feito obra similhante em nenhum dos reinos.
21 All King Solomon's drinking cups were gold, and all the drinking cups in the Palace of the Forest of Lebanon were of pure gold. None were silver, because silver was not considered valuable in Solomon's days.
Tambem todos os vasos de beber do rei Salomão eram de oiro, e todos os vasos da casa do bosque do Libano eram de oiro puro: não havia n'elles prata; porque nos dias de Salomão não tinha estimação alguma.
22 The king had at sea a fleet of oceangoing ships, along with the fleet of Hiram. Once every three years the fleet brought gold, silver, and ivory, as well as apes and baboons.
Porque o rei tinha no mar as náos de Tarsis, com as náos de Hirão: uma vez em tres annos tornavam as náos de Tarsis, e traziam oiro e prata, marfim, e bugios, e pavões.
23 So King Solomon exceeded all the kings of the world in riches and in wisdom.
Assim o rei Salomão excedeu a todos os reis da terra: tanto em riquezas como em sabedoria.
24 All the earth sought the presence of Solomon in order to hear his wisdom, which God had put in his heart.
E toda a terra buscava a face de Salomão, para ouvir a sua sabedoria, que Deus tinha posto no seu coração.
25 Those who visited brought tribute, vessels of silver and of gold, and clothes, armor, and spices, as well as horses and mules, year after year.
E traziam cada um por seu presente vasos de prata e vasos de oiro, e vestidos, e armaduras, e especiarias, cavallos e mulas: cada coisa de anno em anno.
26 Solomon gathered together chariots and horsemen. He had 1,400 chariots and twelve thousand horsemen that he stationed in the chariot cities and with himself in Jerusalem.
Tambem ajuntou Salomão carros e cavalleiros, de sorte que tinha mil e quatrocentos carros e doze mil cavalleiros: e os levou ás cidades dos carros, e junto ao rei em Jerusalem.
27 The king had silver in Jerusalem, as much as the stones on the ground. He made cedar wood to be as abundant as the sycamore fig trees that are in the lowlands.
E fez o rei que em Jerusalem houvesse prata como pedras: e cedros em abundancia como figueiras bravas que estão nas planicies.
28 The horses that belonged to Solomon were imported from Egypt, and Kue and the king's merchants purchased them from Kue.
E tiravam cavallos do Egypto para Salomão: e ás manadas as recebiam os mercadores do rei, cada manada por um certo preço.
29 Chariots were purchased out of Egypt for six hundred shekels of silver each, and horses for 150 shekels each. Many of these were then sold to all the kings of the Hittites and Aram.
E subia e sahia o carro do Egypto por seiscentos siclos de prata, e o cavallo por cento e cincoenta: e assim, por meio d'elles, os tiravam para todos os reis dos hetheos e para os reis da Syria.
