1 Kings 10
1 When the queen of Sheba heard of the fame of Solomon concerning the LORD’s name, she came to test him with hard questions.
Ko je kraljica iz Sabe slišala o Salomonovem slovesu glede Gospodovega imena, je prišla, da ga preizkusi s težkimi vprašanji.
2 She came to Jerusalem with a very great caravan, with camels that bore spices, very much gold, and precious stones; and when she had come to Solomon, she talked with him about all that was in her heart.
Prišla je v Jeruzalem z zelo velikim spremstvom, s kamelami, ki so nosile dišave, zelo veliko zlata in [z] dragocenimi kamni. Ko je prišla k Salomonu, se je z njim posvetovala o vsem, kar je bilo na njenem srcu.
3 Solomon answered all her questions. There wasn’t anything hidden from the king which he didn’t tell her.
Salomon ji je povedal [odgovore na] vsa njena vprašanja. Ničesar ni bilo skritega pred kraljem, kar ji ne bi povedal.
4 When the queen of Sheba had seen all the wisdom of Solomon, the house that he had built,
Ko je kraljica iz Sabe videla vso Salomonovo modrost in hišo, ki jo je zgradil,
5 the food of his table, the sitting of his servants, the attendance of his officials, their clothing, his cup bearers, and his ascent by which he went up to the LORD’s house, there was no more spirit in her.
hrano njegove mize, sedenje njegovih služabnikov in položaj njegovih strežnikov, njihovo obleko, njegove dvorne točaje in njegovo vzpenjanje, s katerim je odšel gor h Gospodovi hiši, v njej ni bilo več duha.
6 She said to the king, “It was a true report that I heard in my own land of your acts and of your wisdom.
Rekla je kralju: »Poročilo, ki sem ga slišala v svoji lastni deželi, o tvojih dejanjih in o tvoji modrosti, je bilo resnično.
7 However, I didn’t believe the words until I came and my eyes had seen it. Behold, not even half was told me! Your wisdom and prosperity exceed the fame which I heard.
Vendar nisem verjela besedam, dokler nisem prišla in so moje oči to videle. Glej, niti polovice mi niso povedali. Tvoja modrost in uspevanje presega sloves, ki sem ga slišala.
8 Happy are your men, happy are these your servants who stand continually before you, who hear your wisdom.
Srečni so tvoji možje, srečni so ti tvoji služabniki, ki nenehno stojijo pred teboj in ki slišijo tvojo modrost.
9 Blessed is the LORD your God, who delighted in you, to set you on the throne of Israel. Because the LORD loved Israel forever, therefore he made you king, to do justice and righteousness.”
Blagoslovljen bodi Gospod, tvoj Bog, ki se je razveseljeval v tebi, da te je posadil na Izraelov prestol. Ker je Gospod na veke ljubil Izraela, zato te je postavil za kralja, da izvajaš sodbo in pravico.«
10 She gave the king one hundred and twenty talents of gold, and a very great quantity of spices, and precious stones. Never again was there such an abundance of spices as these which the queen of Sheba gave to King Solomon.
Kralju je izročila sto dvajset talentov zlata in od dišav zelo veliko zalogo in dragocene kamne. Tja ni prišlo več takšno obilje dišav kakor te, ki jih je kraljica iz Sabe dala kralju Salomonu.
11 The fleet of Hiram that brought gold from Ophir also brought in from Ophir great quantities of almug trees and precious stones.
Prav tako je Hirámova mornarica, ki je iz Ofírja pripeljala zlato, iz Ofírja pripeljala veliko obilje sandalovine in dragocenih kamnov.
12 The king made of the almug trees pillars for the LORD’s house and for the king’s house, harps also and stringed instruments for the singers; no such almug trees came or were seen to this day.
Kralj je iz sandalovine naredil stebre za Gospodovo hišo in za kraljevo hišo, tudi harfe in plunke za pevce. Do tega dne tja ni prišlo nobene takšne sandalovine niti jih niso videli.
13 King Solomon gave to the queen of Sheba all her desire, whatever she asked, in addition to that which Solomon gave her of his royal bounty. So she turned and went to her own land, she and her servants.
Kralj Salomon je kraljici iz Sabe izročil vse njene želje, karkoli je prosila, poleg tega, kar ji je Salomon dal od svoje kraljeve radodarnosti. Tako se je obrnila in odšla v svojo lastno deželo, ona in njeni služabniki.
14 Now the weight of gold that came to Solomon in one year was six hundred and sixty-six talents of gold,
Torej teža zlata, ki je v enem letu prišla k Salomonu, je bila šeststo šestinšestdeset talentov zlata,
15 in addition to that which the traders brought, and the traffic of the merchants, and of all the kings of the mixed people, and of the governors of the country.
poleg tega kar je imel od trgovcev, od preprodaje trgovcev z dišavami, od vseh kraljev iz Arabije in od voditeljev dežele.
16 King Solomon made two hundred bucklers of beaten gold; six hundred shekels of gold went to one buckler.
Kralj Salomon je naredil dvesto okroglih ščitov iz kovanega zlata. Šeststo šeklov zlata je šlo k enemu okroglemu ščitu.
17 He made three hundred shields of beaten gold; three minas of gold went to one shield; and the king put them in the House of the Forest of Lebanon.
Naredil je tristo ščitov iz kovanega zlata. Tri funte zlata je šlo za en ščit. Kralj jih je postavil v hiši libanonskega gozda.
18 Moreover the king made a great throne of ivory, and overlaid it with the finest gold.
Poleg tega je kralj naredil velik prestol iz slonovine in ga prevlekel z najboljšim zlatom.
19 There were six steps to the throne, and the top of the throne was round behind; and there were armrests on either side by the place of the seat, and two lions standing beside the armrests.
Prestol je imel šest stopnic in vrh prestola je bil zadaj okrogel. Na vsaki strani prestola sta bili naslonjali za roke in dva leva sta stala poleg naslonjal za roke.
20 Twelve lions stood there on the one side and on the other on the six steps. Nothing like it was made in any kingdom.
Dvanajst levov je stalo na eni strani in na drugi, na šestih stopnicah. Kaj podobnega ni bilo narejenega v nobenem kraljestvu.
21 All King Solomon’s drinking vessels were of gold, and all the vessels of the House of the Forest of Lebanon were of pure gold. None were of silver, because it was considered of little value in the days of Solomon.
Vse Salomonove posode za pitje so bile iz zlata in vse posode hiše libanonskega gozda so bile iz čistega zlata, nobena ni bila iz srebra. V Salomonovih dneh le-to ni veljalo za nič.
22 For the king had a fleet of ships of Tarshish at sea with Hiram’s fleet. Once every three years the fleet of Tarshish came bringing gold, silver, ivory, apes, and peacocks.
Kajti kralj je imel na morju taršíško mornarico s Hirámovo mornarico. Enkrat na tri leta je prišla mornarica iz Taršíša noseč zlato, srebro, slonovino, opice in pave.
23 So King Solomon exceeded all the kings of the earth in riches and in wisdom.
Tako je kralj Salomon zaradi bogastva in zaradi modrosti prekosil vse zemeljske kralje.
24 All the earth sought the presence of Solomon to hear his wisdom which God had put in his heart.
Vsa zemlja je iskala Salomona, da sliši njegovo modrost, ki jo je Bog položil v njegovo srce.
25 Year after year, every man brought his tribute, vessels of silver, vessels of gold, clothing, armour, spices, horses, and mules.
Vsak mož je prinesel svoje darilo, posode iz srebra, posode iz zlata, obleke, bojno opremo, dišave, konje, mule in to leto za letom.
26 Solomon gathered together chariots and horsemen. He had one thousand and four hundred chariots and twelve thousand horsemen. He kept them in the chariot cities and with the king at Jerusalem.
Salomon je zbral skupaj bojne vozove in konjenike. Imel je tisoč štiristo bojnih voz in dvanajst tisoč konjenikov, ki jih je usmeril v mesta za bojne vozove in s kraljem v Jeruzalem.
27 The king made silver as common as stones in Jerusalem, and cedars as common as the sycamore trees that are in the lowland.
Kralj je storil, da je bilo v Jeruzalemu zaradi obilja srebra kakor kamnov in storil, da je bilo ceder kakor egiptovskih smokev, ki so v dolini.
28 The horses which Solomon had were brought out of Egypt. The king’s merchants received them in droves, each drove at a price.
Salomon je imel konje, privedene iz Egipta in laneno prejo. Kraljevi trgovci so laneno prejo prejeli za ceno.
29 A chariot was imported from Egypt for six hundred shekels of silver, and a horse for one hundred and fifty shekels; and so they exported them to all the kings of the Hittites and to the kings of Syria.
Bojni voz je prišel gor in se iz Egipta pripeljal za šeststo šeklov srebra, konj pa [za] sto petdeset. Tako so jih za vse hetejske kralje in za sirske kralje privedli ven z njihovimi sredstvi.
