1 And king Solomon is king over all Israel,
Kamano ruoth Solomon nobedo ruodh Israel duto.

6 And Ahishar [is] over the household, and Adoniram son of Abda [is] over the tribute.
Ahishar ma jatend od ruoth; Adoniram wuod Abda ma jatend tij achune.
7 And Solomon hath twelve officers over all Israel, and they have sustained the king and his household — a month in the year is on each one for sustenance;
Solomon bende ne nigi jotelo apar gariyo mane orito pinje manie Israel duto kendo ne choko gik moko ne ruoth kod joge. Moro ka moro kuomgi ne kelo chiemo kuom dwe achiel e higa.
8 and these [are] their names: Ben-Hur in the hill-country of Ephraim;

13 Ben-Geber, in Ramoth-Gilead, hath the small towns of Jair son of Manasseh, which [are] in Gilead; he hath a portion of Argob that [is] in Bashan, sixty great cities [with] wall and brazen bar.

Geber wuod Uri norito Gilead (enie piny mane Sihon ruoth jo-Amor kod Og ruodh Bashan ne rito chon). En kende ema ne en jaduongʼ motelone gwengʼno.
20 Judah and Israel [are] many, as the sand that [is] by the sea for multitude, eating and drinking and rejoicing.
Oganda jo-Juda gi jo-Israel ne ngʼeny machalo ka kuoyo manie e dho nam; negichiemo, mi negimetho kendo negimor.
21 And Solomon hath been ruling over all the kingdoms, from the River [to] the land of the Philistines and unto the border of Egypt: they are bringing nigh a present, and serving Solomon, all days of his life.
Kendo Solomon nobedo ruodh pinyno duto chakre Aora maduongʼ mar Yufrate nyaka e piny jo-Filistia mochweyo nyaka giko piny Misri. Pinjegi duto ne kelo osuru ni Solomon bende ne gin e bwo lochne ndalo duto.
22 And the provision of Solomon for one day is thirty cors of flour, and sixty cors of meal;
Chiemo mane Solomon nwangʼo odiechiengʼ kodiechiengʼ ne romo gunde piero auchiel mag mogo mayom kod gunde mia achiel gi piero ariyo ariyo mag mogo amoga;
23 ten fat oxen, and twenty feeding oxen, and a hundred sheep, apart from hart, and roe, and fallow-deer, and fatted beasts of the stalls,
rwedhi apar machwe mopongʼ, rwedhi piero ariyo machwe kod rombe gi diek mia achiel kaachiel gi mwanda; ogunde, ring ngawo kod awendo machwe.
24 for he is ruling over all beyond the river, from Tiphsah and unto Gaza, over all the kings beyond the river, and he hath peace from all his servants round about.
Nimar nobedo gi loch kuom pinjeruodhi duto man yo podho chiengʼ mar Aora maduongʼ chakre Tifsa nyaka Gaza kendo ne en gi kwe gi joma olwore duto.
25 And Judah dwelleth — and Israel — in confidence, each under his vine, and under his fig-tree, from Dan even unto Beer-Sheba, all the days of Solomon.
E ndalo mag ngima mar Solomon Juda gi Israel chakre Dan nyaka Bersheba nodak gi kwe ka ngʼato ka ngʼato tiyo e puothe mar mzabibu kod ngʼope.
26 And Solomon hath forty thousand stalls of horses for his chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen.
Solomon ne nigi udi alufu piero angʼwen moger ni Farese kod Farese alufu apar gariyo.
27 And these officers have sustained king Solomon and every one drawing near unto the table of king Solomon, each [in] his month; they let nothing be lacking.
Jodong gwengʼno, moro ka moro e dweye ne chiwo ni ruoth Solomon gi welo duto mane oluongo, maonge gimoro amora morem.
28 And the barley and the straw, for horses and for dromedaries, they bring in unto the place where they are, each according to his ordinance.
Bende ngʼato ka ngʼato nokelo Shairi gi lum e kuondegi mag keno ne farese maywa geche kod farese mamoko.
29 And God giveth wisdom to Solomon, and understanding, very much, and breadth of heart, as the sand that [is] on the edge of the sea;
Nyasaye nomiyo Solomon rieko gi ngʼeyo matut moloyo kod winjo ma ok nyalo pimore mana ka kwoyo manie dho nam.
30 and the wisdom of Solomon is greater than the wisdom of any of the sons of the east, and than all the wisdom of Egypt;
Rieko Solomon ne duongʼ moloyo jorieko duto manie yo wuok chiengʼ, bende noduongʼ moloyo rieko duto mag Misri.
31 and he is wiser than all men, than Ethan the Ezrahite, and Heman, and Chalcol, and Darda, sons of Mahol, and his name is in all the nations round about.
Noriek moloyo ngʼato angʼata moriwo kata mana Ethan ja-Ezra kendo riek moloyo Heman gi Kalkol kod Darda yawuot Mahol. Kendo humbe nolandore e pinje molwore duto.
32 And he speaketh three thousand similes, and his songs [are] five, and the chief one;
Nogoyo ngeche alufu adek kendo wende mane owero noromo alufu achiel gi abich.
33 and he speaketh concerning the trees, from the cedar that [is] in Lebanon, even unto the hyssop that is coming out in the wall, and he speaketh concerning the cattle, and concerning the fowl, and concerning the creeping things, and concerning the fishes,
Nowuoyo kuom kit yien kochako gi yiende Sida mag Lebanon nyaka owino magawore e kor udi. Bende nopuonjo ji kuom le kod winy gi le mamol kod rech.
34 and there come out of all the peoples to hear the wisdom of Solomon, from all kings of the earth who have heard of his wisdom.
Ji moa e pinje duto nobiro mondo owinji rieko Solomon koorgi gi ruodhi mag piny mane osewinjo humb riekone.
