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;

20 Judah and Israel [are] many, as the sand that [is] by the sea for multitude, eating and drinking and rejoicing.
Nʼoge a, ndị Juda na Izrel bara ụba nʼọnụọgụgụ dịka aja dị nʼakụkụ osimiri. Ha dịkwa ukwuu nʼọnụọgụgụ. Ha na-eri na-aṅụ, na-emekwa onwe ha obi ụtọ.
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.
Ala niile Solomọn na-achị sitere nʼoke osimiri Yufretis ruo ala ndị Filistia, rukwaa nʼoke ala ndị Ijipt. Ndị niile a lụgburu nʼagha nʼobodo ndị a na-atụta ụtụ ha na-enye Solomọn. Ha nọgidekwara nʼokpuru Solomọn ụbọchị niile nke ndụ ya.
22 And the provision of Solomon for one day is thirty cors of flour, and sixty cors of meal;
Ihe oriri a na-ewebata nʼụlọ Solomọn ụbọchị niile bụ otu narị bushel ụtụ ọka na iri bushel asatọ, na iri akpa ọka a kwọrọ akwọ isii,
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,
na ehi iri mara abụba, na iri ehi abụọ a zụrụ nʼebe a na-azụ anụ, na narị atụrụ na ewu. A gụnyeghị anụ ele na mgbada na oke ele na ọkụkọ ọma a na-ewebata.
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.
Nʼihi na ọ chịrị alaeze niile a ruo nʼakụkụ ọdịda anyanwụ nke osimiri Yufretis, site na Tifsa ruo na Gaza. O nwekwara udo nʼakụkụ niile.
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.
Nʼoge ndụ Solomọn niile, Juda na Izrel site na Dan ruo Bịasheba bi nʼudo. Nwoke ọbụla nọ nʼokpuru osisi vaịnị na nʼokpuru osisi fiig nke ya.
26 And Solomon hath forty thousand stalls of horses for his chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen.
Ọnụọgụgụ ụlọ a na-etinye ụgbọ agha ịnyịnya na-adọkpụ nke Solomọn nwere dị puku anọ. Ọnụọgụgụ ịnyịnya a na-agba agba o nwere dị puku iri na abụọ.
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.
Nʼọnwa ọbụla, ndị ahụ a họpụtara ịchị Izrel na-ewetara eze Solomọn na ndị ụlọ ya ihe oriri. Ha adịghị ekwekwa ka otu ihe kọọ nʼụlọ ya.
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.
Ha na-ewetakwa ọka balị na ahịhịa ọka nʼebe o kwesiri, maka ịnyịnya na-adọkpụ ụgbọ agha na ịnyịnya ụkwụ ọsọ ndị ọzọ dịka ihe ha ketara nʼụtụ si dị.
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;
Chineke nyere Solomọn amamihe, na uche nghọta, na mmụọ ịmụta ọtụtụ ihe nke bara ụba dịka aja dị nʼakụkụ osimiri.
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;
Amamihe Solomọn dị ukwuu karịa amamihe ndị si ọwụwa anyanwụ. Nʼezie, ọ dị ukwuu karịakwa amamihe ndị maara ihe nʼIjipt.
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.
Ọ maara ihe karịa onye ọbụla, karịa Etan onye Ezra, na Heman, na Kalkol, na Dada, ụmụ ndị ikom Mahol. Ihe banyere ịdị ukwuu ya gbasara na mba niile gbara ha gburugburu.
32 And he speaketh three thousand similes, and his songs [are] five, and the chief one;
Ọ tụrụ puku ilu atọ, deekwa abụ ọnụọgụgụ ha dị otu puku na ise.
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,
O kwuru okwu banyere osisi, site na osisi sida nke Lebanọn ruo nʼahịhịa hisọp nke na-eto na mgbidi aja, na ihe banyere ụmụ anụmanụ na anụ ufe, na anụ na-akpụgharị nʼala nakwa azụ.
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.
Ndị eze niile dị nʼụwa bụ ndị bịara ịnụrụ banyere amamihe ya zitere ndị si na mba niile dị iche iche ịnụrụ okwu amamihe Solomọn.
