2 Chronicles 9
1 And the queen of Sheba hath heard of the fame of Solomon, and cometh in to try Solomon with acute sayings, to Jerusalem, with a very great company, and camels bearing spices and gold in abundance, and precious stone; and she cometh in unto Solomon, and speaketh with him all that hath been with her heart,
Pea ʻi he fanongo ʻae tuʻi fefine ʻo Sipa ki he ongoongo ʻo Solomone naʻa ne haʻu ki Selūsalema ke ʻahiʻahiʻi ʻa Solomone ʻaki ʻae ngaahi fehuʻi ʻilongataʻa, ko ia mo e fuʻu fononga tokolahi, mo e fanga kāmeli naʻe fetuku ʻae ngaahi meʻa namu kakala, mo e koula lahi ʻaupito, mo e ngaahi maka mahuʻinga: pea ʻi heʻene hoko mai kia Solomone, naʻa ne talanoa mo ia ki he meʻa kotoa pē naʻe ʻi hono loto.
2 and Solomon declareth to her all her matters, and there hath not been hid a thing from Solomon that he hath not declared to her.
Pea naʻe tali ʻe Solomone ʻa ʻene ngaahi fehuʻi kotoa pē: pea naʻe ʻikai fufū meia Solomone ha meʻa ke ne taʻefakamatala ia kiate ia.
3 And the queen of Sheba seeth the wisdom of Solomon, and the house that he hath built,
Pea hili ʻae mamata ʻe he tuʻi fefine ʻo Sipa ki he poto kotoa pē ʻa Solomone, pea mo e fale ʻaia naʻa ne langa,
4 and the food of his table, and the sitting of his servants, and the standing of his ministers, and their clothing, and his stewards, and their clothing, an his burnt-offering that he offered up in the house of Jehovah, and there hath not been any more spirit in her.
Mo e meʻakai ʻi hono keinangaʻanga, mo e anga ʻoe nofo ʻa ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki, mo e toutuʻu, ʻa ʻene kau tauhi, mo honau kofu: mo kinautolu foki naʻe tauhi ʻa ʻene meʻainu, mo honau kofu ʻonautolu, pea mo e hala ʻaia naʻa ne ʻalu hake ai ki he fale ʻo Sihova: naʻe vaivai ʻa hono loto ʻiate ia.
5 And she saith unto the king, 'True [is] the word that I heard in my land concerning thy matters and concerning thy wisdom,
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ia ki he tuʻi, “Ta ko e lea moʻoni ia ʻaia naʻaku fanongo ki ai ʻi hoku fonua ʻoʻoku, ki hoʻo ngaahi ngāue pea mo hoʻo poto.
6 and I have given no credence to their words, till that I have come, and mine eyes see, and lo, there hath not been declared to me the half of the abundance of thy wisdom — thou hast added unto the report that I heard.
Ka naʻe ʻikai te u tui ki heʻenau lea, kaeʻoua ke u haʻu, pea mamata ki ai ʻa hoku mata: pea vakai, naʻe ʻikai tala mai hono vaheua ʻoe lahi ʻo hoʻo poto: he ʻoku ke lahi hake ʻi he ongoongo ko ia naʻaku fanongo ki ai.
7 'O the happiness of thy men, and the happiness of thy servants — these — who are standing before thee continually, and hearing thy wisdom.
ʻOku monūʻia ʻa hoʻo kau tangata, ʻoku monūʻia ʻa hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki ko eni ʻoku tutuʻumaʻu aipe ʻi ho ʻao, ʻo [nau ]fanongo ki hoʻo poto.
8 Let Jehovah thy God be blessed who hath delighted in thee, to put thee on His throne for king for Jehovah thy God; in the love of thy God to Israel, to establish it to the age, He hath put thee over them for king, to do judgment and righteousness.'
Fakafetaʻi kia Sihova ko ho ʻOtua, ʻaia kuo lōlōfie lelei kiate koe ke fakanofo koe ki hono nofoʻa fakatuʻi, ko e tuʻi maʻa Sihova ko ho ʻOtua: koeʻuhi naʻe ʻofa ʻa ho ʻOtua ki ʻIsileli, ke fokotuʻu ʻakinautolu ke taʻengata: ko ia naʻa ne fakanofo ai koe ke tuʻi kiate kinautolu, ke fai ʻae fakamaau mo e fai totonu.”
9 And she giveth to the king a hundred and twenty talents of gold, and spices in great abundance, and precious stone; and there hath not been any such spice as the queen of Sheba hath given to king Solomon.
Pea naʻa ne foaki ki he tuʻi ʻae taleniti koula ʻe teau ma uofulu, mo e ngaahi meʻa namu kakala fuʻu lahi ʻaupito, mo e ngaahi maka mahuʻinga: pea naʻe ʻikai ha ngaahi meʻa kakala ke tatau mo ia naʻe foaki kia Solomone ʻe he tuʻi fefine ʻo Sipa.
10 And also, servants of Huram, and servants of Solomon, who brought in gold from Ophir, have brought in algum-trees and precious stone.
Pea ko e kau tamaioʻeiki foki ʻa Helami mo e kau tamaioʻeiki ʻa Solomone, ʻaia naʻe ʻomi ʻae koula mei Ofeli, naʻa [nau ]ʻomi ʻae ngaahi ʻakau ʻalikumi pea mo e ngaahi maka mahuʻinga.
11 And the king maketh the algum-trees staircases for the house of Jehovah, and for the house of the king, and harps and psalteries for singers; and there have been none seen like these before in the land of Judah.
Pea naʻe ngaohi ʻe he tuʻi ʻaki ʻae ngaahi ʻakau ʻalikumi, ʻae ngaahi pou ki he fale ʻo Sihova, pea ki he fale ʻoe tuʻi, mo e ngaahi haʻape mo e ngaahi meʻa hiva maʻae kau fasi hiva: pea naʻe teʻeki ai ke mamata ʻe he fonua ʻo Siuta ki he ngaahi meʻa pehē.
12 And king Solomon hath given to the queen of Sheba all her desire that she asked, apart from that which she had brought unto the king, and she turneth and goeth to her land, she and her servants.
Pea naʻe foaki ʻe Solomone ki he tuʻi fefine ʻo Sipa ʻa ʻene holi kotoa pē, ʻae meʻa fulipē naʻa ne kole ki ai, ko e fakalahi ʻo ʻene [tali ʻae koloa ]naʻa ne fetuku mai ki he tuʻi. Pea pehē, naʻa ne liliu atu, ʻo ʻalu ki hono fonua ʻoʻona ʻaia mo ʻene kau tamaioʻeiki.
13 And the weight of the gold that is coming to Solomon in one year is six hundred and sixty and six talents of gold,
Pea ko eni, ko hono mamafa ʻoe koula naʻe ʻomi kia Solomone ʻi he taʻu pe taha, ko e taleniti ʻe onongeau mo e onongofulu ma ono ʻoe koula:
14 apart from [what] the tourists, and the merchants, are bringing in; and all the kings of Arabia, and the governors of the land, are bringing in gold and silver to Solomon.
Ka naʻe lau kehe ʻaia naʻe fetuku mai ʻe he kau tangata naʻe fai ʻae fefakatauʻaki. Pea naʻe ʻomi ʻae koula mo e siliva kia Solomone ʻe he ngaahi tuʻi kotoa pē ʻo ʻAlepea, pea ʻe he kau pule ʻoe ngaahi vahe fonua.
15 And king Solomon maketh two hundred targets of alloyed gold, six hundred [shekels] of alloyed gold he causeth to go up on the one target;
Pea naʻe ngaohi ʻe Solomone ko e tuʻi ʻae ngaahi pā ʻe uangeau ʻaki ʻae koula naʻe tuki: ko e [sikeli ]ʻe onongeau ʻoe koula naʻe ʻi he pā pe taha.
16 and three hundred shields of alloyed gold, three hundred [shekels] of gold he causeth to go up on the one shield, and the king putteth them in the house of the forest of Lebanon.
Pea naʻa ne ngaohi ʻae ngaahi pā iiki ʻe tolungeau ʻaki ʻae koula naʻe tuki: ko e [sikeli ]ʻe tolungeau ʻoe koula naʻe ʻi he pā pe taha. Pea naʻe tuku ia ʻe he tuʻi ki he fale ʻi he vao ʻakau ʻo Lepanoni.
17 And the king maketh a great throne of ivory, and overlayeth it with pure gold;
Naʻe ngaohi foki ʻe he tuʻi ha fuʻu nofoʻa fakatuʻi ʻaki ʻae lei, pea naʻa ne ʻaofi ʻaki ia ʻae koula lelei lahi.
18 and six steps [are] to the throne, and a footstool of gold, to the throne they are fastened, and hands [are] on this [side] and on that on the place of the sitting, and two lions are standing near the hands,
Naʻe ai ʻae lakaʻanga ʻe ono ke [ʻalu hake ai ]ki he nofoʻa fakatuʻi, mo e tuʻunga vaʻe koula, ʻaia naʻe fakamaʻu ki he nofoʻa fakatuʻi, mo e ʻaiʻanga nima ʻi hono potu kaokao ʻe ua ʻoe hekaʻanga, mo e laione ʻe ua naʻe tuʻu ofi ki he ʻaiʻanga nima:
19 and twelve lions are standing there on the six steps on this [side], and on that: it hath not been made so for any kingdom.
Pea naʻe tuʻu ʻi hono potu ʻe taha ʻae laione ʻe hongofulu ma ua, pea ʻi he potu kehe ʻe taha ʻi he lakaʻanga ʻe ono. Naʻe ʻikai ngaohi hano tatau ʻi ha puleʻanga.
20 And all the drinking vessels of king Solomon [are] of gold, and all the vessels of the house of the forest of Lebanon [are] of refined gold — silver is not reckoned in the days of Solomon for anything;
Pea naʻe ngaohi ʻaki ʻae koula ʻae ngaahi ipu inu kotoa pē ʻoe tuʻi ko Solomone, pea naʻe ʻoe koula lelei ʻae ngaahi ipu kotoa pē ʻoe fale ʻi he vao ʻakau ʻo Lepanoni: naʻe ʻikai ha taha ʻoe siliva: he naʻe ʻikai lau ia ko e meʻa mahuʻinga ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ʻo Solomone.
21 for ships of the king are going to Tarshish, with servants of Huram: once in three years come do the ships of Tarshish bearing gold, and silver, ivory, apes, and peacocks.
He naʻe ʻalu ʻae folau ʻae tuʻi ki Tasisi fakataha mo e kau tamaioʻeiki ʻa Helami: naʻe haʻu tuʻo taha ʻi he taʻu ʻe tolu ʻae folau mei Tasisi, ke ʻomi ʻae koula, mo e siliva, mo e lei, mo e fanga ngeli, pea mo e fanga pikoka.
22 And king Solomon becometh greater than any of the kings of the earth for riches and wisdom;
Pea naʻe lahi hake ʻae maʻu koloa mo e poto ʻa Solomone ʻi he ngaahi tuʻi kotoa pē ʻo māmani.
23 and all the kings of the earth are seeking the presence of Solomon to hear his wisdom that God hath put in his heart,
Pea naʻe holi ke haʻu ki he ʻao ʻo Solomone ʻe he ngaahi tuʻi kotoa pē ʻo māmani, ke fanongo ki heʻene poto, ʻaia naʻe tuku ki hono loto ʻe he ʻOtua.
24 and they are bringing in each his present, vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and garments, harness, and spices, horses, and mules, a rate year by year.
Pea naʻa nau ʻomi ʻe he tangata taki taha ʻa ʻene meʻaʻofa, ko e ngaahi meʻa siliva, mo e ngaahi meʻa koula, mo e ngaahi kofu, mo e ngaahi mahafutau, mo e meʻa namu kakala, mo e fanga hoosi, mo e fanga miuli, ko e tukuhau ʻi he taʻu kotoa pē.
25 And there are to Solomon four thousand stalls for horses and chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen, and he placed them in cities of the chariot, and with the king in Jerusalem.
Pea naʻe maʻu ʻe Solomone ʻae potu fale tuʻuʻanga ʻe fā afe ki he fanga hoosi mo e ngaahi saliote, pea mo e kau heka hoosi ʻe taha mano mo e ua afe: ʻaia naʻa ne vahevahe [ke nofo ]ʻi he ngaahi kolo saliote, pea ki he tuʻi ʻi Selūsalema.
26 And he is ruling over all the kings from the River even unto the land of the Philistines, and unto the border of Egypt.
Pea naʻa ne pule ki he ngaahi tuʻi kotoa pē mei he vaitafe ʻo aʻu atu ki he fonua ʻoe kakai Filisitia, pea ʻe aʻu ki he mata fonua ʻo ʻIsipite.
27 And the king maketh the silver in Jerusalem as stones, and the cedars he hath made as sycamores, that [are] in the low country, for abundance,
Pea naʻe ngaohi ʻae siliva ʻe he tuʻi ke tatau ʻi Selūsalema mo e ngaahi maka, pea ko e ngaahi ʻakau sita naʻe hangē ia ko e ngaahi ʻakau sukamino ʻaia naʻe ʻi he ngaahi potu tokalelei, ʻi hono lahi ʻaupito.
28 and they are bringing out horses from Egypt to Solomon, and from all the lands.
Pea naʻa nau ʻomi kia Solomone ʻae fanga hoosi mei ʻIsipite, pea mei he ngaahi fonua kotoa pē.
29 And the rest of the matters of Solomon, the first and the last, are they not written beside the matters of Nathan the prophet, and beside the prophecy of Ahijah the Shilonite, and with the visions of Iddo the seer concerning Jeroboam son of Nebat?
Pea ko eni ko hono toe ʻoe ngaahi ngāue ʻa Solomone, mei he ʻuluaki ki he kimui, ʻikai kuo tohi ia ʻi he tohi ʻa Natani ko e palōfita, pea ʻi he kikite ʻo ʻAhisa ko e tangata Sailo, pea ʻi he ngaahi kikite ʻo Ito ko e tangata kikite naʻe valoki kia Selopoami ko e foha ʻo Nipati?
30 And Solomon reigneth in Jerusalem over all Israel forty years,
Pea naʻe pule ʻa Solomone ʻi Selūsalema ki ʻIsileli kātoa ʻi he taʻu ʻe fāngofulu.
31 and Solomon lieth with his fathers, and they bury him in the city of David his father, and reign doth Rehoboam his son in his stead.
Pea naʻe mohe ʻa Solomone mo ʻene ngaahi tamai pea naʻe fai hono putu ʻi he “Kolo ʻo Tevita” ko ʻene tamai: pea naʻe fetongi ia ʻi he pule ʻe hono foha ko Lehopoami.
