Salomon te rive gouvènen tout nasyon nan zòn ki pran depi larivyè Lefrat rive nan peyi Filisti a ak fwontyè Lejip la. Yo tout te peye Salomon taks, yo tout te soumèt devan li pandan tout rèy li jouk li mouri.
22 Forsothe the mete of Salomon was bi ech day, thritti chorus of clene flour of whete, and sixti chorus of mele,
Men pwovizyon Salomon te bezwen chak jou: sansenkant (150) barik kè ble, twasan (300) barik farin frans,
23 ten fatte oxis, and twenti oxis of lesewe, and an hundrid wetheris, outakun huntyng of hertys, of geet, and of buglis, and of briddis maad fat.
dis bèf angrese nan pak, ven bèf angrese nan savann, san mouton, san konte bèt mawon, mal ak fenmèl, ak bèt volay byen gra.
24 For he helde al the cuntrei that was biyende the flood, as fro Caphsa `til to Gasa, and alle the kyngis of tho cuntreis; and he hadde pees bi ech part in cumpas.
Salomon te rive chèf sou tout peyi ki sou bò solèy kouche larivyè Lefrat la depi lavil Tifsak bò larivyè Lefrat la jouk lavil Gaza nan direksyon lwès. Tout ti wa ki t'ap gouvènen sou bò solèy kouche larivyè Lefrat la te soumèt devan li. Salomon menm pa t' ni nan goumen ni nan kont ak ankenn peyi nan vwazinaj li.
25 And Juda and Israel dwelliden withouten ony drede, ech man vndur his vyne, and vndur his fige tree, fro Dan `til to Bersabe, in alle the daies of Salomon.
Pandan tout rèy Salomon jouk li mouri, moun peyi Izrayèl yo ak moun peyi Jida yo t'ap viv ak kè poze, san danje ni malè, chak fanmi nan lakou yo ak ti jaden rezen yo anba pye fig frans yo.
26 And Salomon hadde fourty thousynd cratchis of horsis for charis, and twelue thousynde of roode horsis; and the forseid prefectis nurshiden tho horsis.

Douz gouvènè yo te gen pou ranmase pwovizyon wa Salomon te bezwen pou li menm ak pou moun k'ap manje nan palè a, yo chak pandan yon mwa nan lanne a. Yo pa janm kite anyen manke.
28 also thei brouyten barli, and forage of horsis and werk beestis, in to the place where the king was, `bi ordenaunce to hem.
Gouvènè yo te gen pou bay lòj ak zèb tout kote yo bezwen pou chwal cha lagè yo ak lòt bèt chay.
29 Also God yaf to Salomon wisdom, and prudence ful myche, and largenesse of herte, as the soond which is in the brenke of the see.
Bondye te bay Salomon anpil lespri, anpil bon konprann ak yon konesans nou pa ka mezire.
30 And the wisdom of Solomon passide the wisdom of alle eest men, and Egipcians;
Salomon te gen plis bon konprann pase tout moun ki gen bon konprann nan peyi bò solèy leve yo, osinon pase tout moun ki gen bon konprann nan peyi Lejip.
31 and he was wisere than alle men; he was wisere than Ethan Esraite, and than Eman, and than Cacal, and than Dorda, the sones of Maol; and he was named among alle folkis bi cumpas.
Li te gen plis bon konprann pase tout moun, pase Etan, moun lavil Ezrak, pase Eman, Kalkòl ak Dada, pitit gason Makòl yo. Nan tout peyi ki toupre peyi Izrayèl la yo t'ap nonmen non Salomon.
32 And Salomon spak thre thousynde parablis, and hise songis weren fyue thousynde;
Li te ekri twamil (3.000) pwovèb ak mil senk (1.005) chante pou pi piti.
33 and he disputide of trees fro a cedre which is in the Lyban, `til to the ysope that goith out of the wal; he disputide of werk beestis, and briddis, and crepynge beestis, and fischis.
Li fè bèl pawoli sou pyebwa ak tout kalite plant, depi pye sèd peyi Liban yo jouk lyann izòp ki pouse sou miray. Li pale tou sou bèt kat pat, sou zwazo, sou bèt ki trennen sou vant ak sou pwason.
34 And thei camen fro alle puplis to here the wisdom of Salomon, and fro alle kyngis of erthe, that herden his wisdom.
Moun te soti toupatou pou vin tande Salomon ap pale. Ata wa tout lòt peyi latè yo te pran nouvèl jan li te gen anpil bon konprann. Yo menm tou yo te voye moun vin tande l'.
