20 Judah and Israel were as numerous as the sand by the sea. They were eating and drinking and were happy.
Abantu ba Yuda ne Isirayiri baali bangi nga bali ng’omusenyu ku lubalama lw’ennyanja, era baalyanga, ne banywanga nga basanyuka.
21 Solomon ruled over all the kingdoms from the River to the land of the Philistines and to the border of Egypt. They brought tribute and served Solomon all the days of his life.
Sulemaani n’afuga obwakabaka bwonna okuva ku Mugga Fulaati okutuuka ku nsi ey’Abafirisuuti n’okutuuka ku nsalo ey’e Misiri, era baamuleeteranga ebirabo, era ne bamuweerezanga ennaku zonna ez’obulamu bwe.
22 Solomon's provision for one day was thirty cors of fine flour and sixty cors of meal,
Bye baasoloolezanga Sulemaani ebya buli lunaku byali ebigero by’obutta obulungi kilo mukaaga n’obutundu mukaaga, n’ebigero eby’obutta obutaali buse, kilo kumi na ssatu n’obutundu bubiri;
23 ten fat oxen, twenty oxen out of the pastures, and one hundred sheep, besides deer, gazelles, roebucks, and fattened fowl.
ente eza ssava kkumi, n’ente ezaavanga mu ddundiro amakumi abiri, wamu n’endiga kikumi, n’enjaza, n’empeewo, n’ennangaazi, n’enkoko ze baalondangamu.
24 For he had dominion over all the region on this side of the River, from Tiphsah as far as to Gaza, over all the kings on this side the River, and he had peace on all sides around him.
Yafuganga ensi yonna eri emitala w’Omugga Fulaati, okuva e Tifusa okutuuka e Gaaza, era yalina emirembe enjuuyi zonna okumwetooloola.
25 Judah and Israel lived in safety, every man under his vine and under his fig tree, from Dan to Beersheba, all the days of Solomon.
Mu mirembe gya Sulemaani, Yuda ne Isirayiri yonna, okuva e Ddaani okutuuka e Beeruseba buli muntu yalina emirembe, era ng’alina ennimiro ye ey’emizabbibu n’ey’emitiini.
26 Solomon had forty thousand stalls of horses for his chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen.
Sulemaani yalina ebisibo by’embalaasi ezisika amagaali enkumi nnya, n’abasajja abeebagala embalaasi omutwalo gumu mu enkumi bbiri.
27 Those officials 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.
Abaami ba masaza, buli mwezi baalabiriranga Kabaka Sulemaani wamu n’abaatuulanga ku mmeeza ye, nga bamuweereza ebyokulya.
28 They also brought to the proper place barley and straw for the chariot horses and riding horses, each one bringing in what he was able.
Era baaleetanga sayiri n’essubi olw’embalaasi ez’embiro n’embalaasi endala, buli muntu ng’omulimu gwe bwe gwali gwe yalagirwa.
29 God gave Solomon great wisdom and understanding, and wideness of understanding like the sand on the seashore.
Katonda n’awa Sulemaani amagezi n’okutegeera kungi nnyo n’obugunjufu bungi, ng’omusenyu oguli ku mabbali g’ennyanja.
30 Solomon's wisdom exceeded the wisdom of all the people of the east and all the wisdom of Egypt.
Amagezi ga Sulemaani gaali mangi nnyo okukira ag’abasajja bonna ab’ebuvanjuba, ate n’okusinga ago ag’e Misiri.
31 He was wiser than all men—than Ethan the Ezrahite, Heman, Kalkol, and Darda, the sons of Mahol—and his fame reached all the surrounding nations.
Yali mugezi okukira abantu bonna, era n’okukira Esani Omwezulaki, ne Kemani, ne Kalukoli ne Daluda batabani ba Makoli, era erinnya lye ne lyatiikirira mu mawanga gonna ageetoolodde.
32 He spoke three thousand proverbs and his songs were one thousand and five in number.
Yagera engero enkumi ssatu, n’ennyimba ze zaali lukumi mu ttaano.
33 He described the plants, from the cedar that is in Lebanon to the hyssop that grows out of the wall. He explained also about beasts, birds, creeping things, and fish.
Yayogera ku bulamu bwe bimera, okuva ku muvule gwa Lebanooni okutuuka ku ezobu amera ku bbugwe. Ate era yayogera ne ku nsolo n’ennyonyi, n’ebyewalula n’ebyennyanja.
34 People came from all the nations to hear the wisdom of Solomon. They came from all kings of the earth who had heard of his wisdom.
Era abantu bangi okuva mu mawanga gonna ne bajjanga okuwuliriza amagezi ga Sulemaani, nga batumiddwa bakabaka okuva mu nsi yonna, abaali bawulidde ku magezi ge.
