< 1 Kings 10 >

1 But also the queen of Saba, whanne the fame of Salomon was herd, cam in the name of the Lord to tempte hym in derk and douti questiouns.
Ɛberɛ a Sebahemmaa tee Salomo edin a ahyeta na ɛhyɛ Awurade din animuonyam no, ɔde nsɛmmisa a anoyie yɛ den bɛsɔɔ Salomo hwɛeɛ.
2 And sche entride with myche felouschipe and richessis in to Jerusalem, and with camels berynge swete smellynge thingis, and gold greetli with out noumbre, and preciouse stoonys; and sche cam to king Salomon, and spak to hym alle thingis whiche sche hadde in hir herte.
Ɔde nʼasomfoɔ a wɔdɔɔso yie kaa ne ho baa Yerusalem. Na nyoma a wɔsoso nnuhwam, sikakɔkɔɔ bebree ne aboɔdemmoɔ ka wɔn ho. Ɛberɛ a ɔhyiaa Salomo no, wɔdwennwenee nsɛm bebree a na ɛwɔ ɔhemmaa ani so no ho.
3 And Salomon tauyte hir alle wordis whiche sche hadde put forth; no word was, that myyte be hid fro the kyng, and which he answeryde not to hir.
Wɔdii biribiara a enti ɔbaa saa nsrahwɛ no ho nkɔmmɔ, maa Salomo yii ne nsɛmmisa biara ano sɛdeɛ ɛsɛ.
4 Forsothe the queen of Saba siy al the wisdom of Salomon, and the hows which he hadde bildid,
Seba Ɔhemmaa hunuu nyansa a Salomo wɔ ne ahemfie a wasi no,
5 and the metis of his table, and the dwellyng places of hise seruauntis, and the ordris of mynystris, and the clothis of hem, and the boteleris, and the brent sacrifices whiche he offride in the hows of the Lord; and sche hadde no more spirite.
ne ho dwirii no. Nnuane a ɔhunuu sɛ ɛsisi ne didipono so no yɛɛ no nwanwa. Sɛdeɛ na wahyehyɛ ne fie so ahwɛfoɔ no ne wɔn ntadeɛ papa bi a ɛhyehyɛ wɔn, ne sɛdeɛ nkuruwakurafoɔ ne wɔn ntadeɛ yuu ne ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ a Salomo bɔɔ no Awurade Asɔredan mu hɔ no yɛɛ no ahodwirie.
6 And sche seide to the kyng, The word is trewe, which Y herde in my lond, of thi wordis, and of thi wisdom;
Ɔhemmaa no firii ahodwirie mu ka kyerɛɛ ɔhene no sɛ, “Nsɛm a metee wɔ me ɔman mu a ɛfa dwuma a woatumi adi ne wo nyansabunu ho no nyinaa yɛ nokorɛ!
7 and Y bileuyde not to men tellynge to me, til Y my silf cam, and siy with myn iyen, and preuede that the half part was not teld to me; thi wisdom is more and thi werkis, than the tale which Y herde.
Na mennye nni kɔsii sɛ mebɛduruu ha a mʼankasa mede mʼani abɛhunu yi. Nokorɛm, sɛɛ mannte asɛm no mu fa mpo. Wo nyansa ne wo nkɔsoɔ no boro deɛ wɔka kyerɛɛ me no so koraa.
8 Thi men ben blessid, and thi seruauntis ben blessid, these that stonden bifor thee euere, and heren thi wisdom.
Anigyeɛ bɛn na saa nnipa yi renya? Adom bɛn na wo mpanimfoɔ a wɔne wowɔ ha anɔpa ne awia tie wo renya mfiri wo nyansa yi mu?
9 Blessid be thi Lord God, whom thou plesedist, and hath set thee on the trone of Israel; for the Lord louyde Israel with outen ende, and hath ordeynyd thee kyng, that thou schuldist do doom and riytfulnesse.
Awurade, wo Onyankopɔn no yɛ kɛseɛ ampa. Nʼani gye wo ho, enti ɔde wo asi Israel ahennwa so. Ɛfiri sɛ, ɔdɔ a Awurade de dɔ Israel no yɛ ɔdɔ a ɛnsa da. Wasi wo ɔhene sɛ wode atɛntenenee ne teneneeyɛ bɛbu ɔman no.”
10 Therfor sche yaf to the kyng sixe score talentis of gold, and ful many swete smellynge thingis, and precious stoonus; so many swete smellynge thingis weren no more brouyt, as tho which the queen of Saba yaf to kyng Salomon.
Na ɔkyɛɛ ɔhene no sikakɔkɔɔ tɔno 4 ne fa, nnuhwan bebree ne aboɔdemmoɔ. Obiara ammfa nnuhwam dodoɔ saa ammɛkyɛ Salomo bio, sɛdeɛ Sebahemmaa de bɛkyɛɛ no no.
11 But also the schip of Hiram, that brouyte gold fro Ophir, brouyte fro Ophir ful many trees of tyme, and preciouse stoonys.
Nanso, ɛberɛ a Huram ahyɛn no firi Ofir de sikakɔkɔɔ baeɛ no, na samfona nnua bebree ne aboɔdemmoɔ ka ho.
12 And kyng Salomon made of the trees of tyme vndir settyngis of the hows of the Lord, and of the kyngis hows, and harpis, and sitols to syngeris; siche trees of tyme weren not brouyt nether seyn, til in to present dai.
Ɔhene de samfona nnua no yɛɛ aforoeɛ wɔ Awurade Asɔredan ne ahemfie no mu, ɛnna ɔde bi yɛɛ asankuo ne mmɛnta maa nnwomsiaafoɔ. Ɛbɛsi saa ɛberɛ no ne saa ɛberɛ no akyi, na obiara mfaa samfona nnua a ɛyɛ fɛ saa nkɔɔ hɔ da.
13 Sotheli kyng Salomon yaf to the queen of Saba alle thingis whiche sche wolde, and axide of hym, outakun these thingis whiche he hadde youe to hir bi the kyngis yifte wilfuli; and sche turnede ayen, and yede in to hir lond with hir seruauntis.
Biribiara a Sebahemmaa bisaa ɔhene Salomo no, ɔde maa no kaa deɛ amanneɛ enti, ɔnam ayamyɛ so de maa no no ho. Ɛno akyi, Sebahemmaa ne nʼasomfoɔ no sane kɔɔ wɔn kurom.
14 Forsothe the weyte of gold, that was offrid to Salomon bi ech yeer, was of sixe hundrid and sixe and sixti talentis of gold,
Afe biara, na Salomo nya sikakɔkɔɔ bɛyɛ tɔno 25.
15 outakun that which men that weren on the talagis, `that is, rentis for thingis borun aboute in the lond, and marchauntis, and alle men sillynge scheeldys, and alle the kyngis of Arabie, and dukis of erthe yauen.
Adwadeɛ a na ɔnya firi adwadifoɔ, Arabia ahemfo ne asase no so amradofoɔ no nkyɛn nka ho.
16 And kyng Salomon made two hundrid scheeldis of pureste gold; he yaf sixe hundrid siclis of gold in to the platis of oo scheeld;
Ɔhene Salomo maa wɔde sikakɔkɔɔ a wɔaboro, yɛɛ akyɛm akɛseɛ ahanu a emu biara sikakɔkɔɔ a ɛwɔ mu no mu duru yɛ kilogram nson.
17 and he made thre hundrid of bokeleris of preued gold; thre hundrid talentis of gold clothiden o bokeler. And the kyng puttide tho in the hows of the forest of Lyban.
Ɔsane yɛɛ sikakɔkɔɔ akokyɛm nketewa ahasa a wɔde hamre boroeɛ a na sikakɔkɔɔ a wɔde yɛɛ emu biara no mu duru bɛyɛ kilogram mmiɛnsa ne fa. Ɔhene no kɔkoraa saa akokyɛm yi wɔ Lebanon Kwaeɛ Ahemfie mu.
18 Also kyng Salomon made a greet trone of yuer, and clothide it with ful fyn gold;
Na ɔhene no de asonse yɛɛ ahennwa kɛseɛ bi, na ɔde sikakɔkɔɔ amapa huraa ho.
19 which trone hadde sixe grees; and the hiynesse of the trone was round in the hynderere part; and tweine hondis on this side and on that side, holdynge the seete, and twei lyouns stoden bisidis ech hond;
Na ahennwa no wɔ atwedeɛ ntiasoɔ nsia na nʼakyi yɛ kurukuruwa. Ahennwa no wɔ nsa wɔ benkum ne nifa, na wɔayɛ agyata sɛso mmienu asisi hɔ.
20 and twelue litil liouns stondynge on sixe grees on this side and on that side; siche a werk was not maad in alle rewmes.
Salomo sane yɛɛ agyata sɛso dumienu a ɔbaako biara gyina atwedeɛ ntiasoɔ nsia no mu biara benkum ne nifa. Ahennwa biara nni ewiase a wɔbɛtumi de atoto Salomo deɛ no ho.
21 But also alle the vessels, of which kyng Salomon drank, weren of gold, and alle the purtenaunce of the hows of the forest of Liban was of pureste gold; siluer was not, nether it was arettid of ony prijs in the daies of Salomon.
Ɔhene Salomo nkuruwa nyinaa, sikakɔkɔɔ amapa na wɔde yɛeɛ. Saa ara na nneɛma ahodoɔ a ɛwɔ Lebanon Kwaeɛ Ahemfie mu no nso teɛ. Wɔamfa dwetɛ anyɛ, ɛfiri sɛ, Salomo berɛ so no, na wɔbu dwetɛ ade teta bi.
22 For the schip of `the kyng wente onys bi thre yeer with the schip of Hiram in to Tharsis, and brouyte fro thennus gold, and siluer, and teeth of olifauntis, and apis, and pokokis.
Na ɔhene no wɔ ɛpo so adwadihyɛn bebree a ɛne Huram deɛ no yɛ adwuma bɔ mu. Mfeɛ mmiɛnsa biara, ahyɛn no ba prɛko a sikakɔkɔɔ, dwetɛ, asonse, nkaatia, nkontromfi ne kohaa ahyehyɛ wɔn ma.
23 Therfor kyng Salomon was magnified aboue alle kyngis of erthe in richessis and wisdom.
Enti, ɔhene Salomo bɛyɛɛ ɔdefoɔ ne onyansafoɔ sene ɔhene biara wɔ asase so nyinaa.
24 And al erthe desiride to se the cheer of Salomon, to here the wisdom of him, which wisdom God hadde youe in his herte.
Ahemfo fifiri aman nyinaa so bɛsraa no, tiee ne nyansasɛm a Onyankopɔn de adom no no bi.
25 And alle men brouyten yiftis to hym, vessels of gold, and of siluer, clothis, and armeris of batel, and swete smellynge thingis, and horsis, and mulis, bi ech yeer.
Afe biara mu, obiara a ɔbɛba abɛsra no no brɛ no akyɛdeɛ te sɛ dwetɛ, sikakɔkɔɔ, ntadeɛ, akodeɛ, nnuhwam, apɔnkɔ ne mfunumpɔnkɔ.
26 And Salomon gaderide togidere charis, and knyytis; and a thousinde and foure hundrid charis weren maad to hym, and twelue thousynde `of knyytis; and he disposide hem bi strengthid citees, and with the kyng in Jerusalem.
Salomo nyaa nteaseɛnam ne apɔnkɔ bebree. Na ɔwɔ nteaseɛnam apem ahanan ne apɔnkɔ ɔpedumienu. Ɔde emu fa kɛseɛ guguu nteaseɛnam nkuropɔn no so ɛnna ɔmaa ebi nso kaa Yerusalem.
27 And he made, that so greet aboundaunce of siluer was in Jerusalem, how greet was also of stoonys; and he yaf the multitude of cedris as sicomoris, that growen in feeldy places.
Ɔhene no maa dwetɛ buu te sɛ aboɔ wɔ Yerusalem. Na ntweneduro nnua a ɛsom bo no nso buu so sɛ akyee nnua a ɛfifiri wɔ mmepɔ ase wɔ Yuda asase so.
28 And the horsis of Salomon weren led out of Egipt, and of Coa; for the marchauntis of the kyng bouyten of Coa, and brouyten for prijs ordeyned.
Na wɔkra Salomo apɔnkɔ no firi Misraim ne Kilikia, ɛfiri sɛ, na ɔhene adwadifoɔ no nya no yie wɔ Kilikia.
29 Forsothe a chare yede out of Egipt for sixe hundrid siclis of siluer, and an hors for an hundrid and fifti siclis; and bi this maner alle the kyngis of Etheis and of Sirye seelden horsis.
Saa ɛberɛ no, na wɔtumi tɔ Misraim nteaseɛnam a wɔde ba Yerusalem no nnwetɛbena kilogram nson, na apɔnkɔ nso, wɔtumi tɔ no nnwetɛbena kilogram mmienu. Wɔn nso kɔtontɔnn wɔn mu pii nso maa Hetifoɔ ne Aram ahemfo.
