1 Esi Seba fianyɔnu se ale si Solomo xɔ ŋkɔe kple kadodo si le eya kple Yehowa ƒe ŋkɔ dome la, eva be yeadoe kpɔ kple biabia sesẽ aɖewo.
And the Queene of Sheba hearing ye fame of Salomon (concerning the Name of the Lord) came to proue him with hard questions.
2 Eva ɖo Yerusalem kple kposɔ geɖe siwo tsɔ atike ʋeʋĩwo, sika kple kpe xɔasiwo. Etsɔ nya geɖe siwo nɔ eƒe susu me la ɖo Solomo ƒe ŋkume.
And she came to Ierusalem with a verie great traine, and camels that bare sweete odours, and golde exceeding much, and precious stones: and shee came to Salomon, and communed with him of all that was in her heart.
3 Fia Solomo te ŋu ɖo eƒe biabiawo katã ŋu, naneke menɔ ɣaɣla ɖee o. Enya nu sia nu eye wòte ŋu ɖe nu sia nu me nɛ.
And Salomon declared vnto her all her questions: nothing was hid from the King, which he expounded not vnto her.
4 Esi fianyɔnu la kpɔ ale si gbegbe Solomo nya nu, ale si eƒe fiasã la nyoe,
Then the Queene of Sheba sawe all Salomons wisedome, and the house that he had built,
5 nuɖuɖu nyui siwo woɖo kplɔ̃ dzi, subɔla geɖewo kple awu nyui siwo wodo, Fia la ƒe ahakulawo kple numevɔ geɖe siwo wòsana na Yehowa la, eƒe nu ku.

And shee sayde vnto the King, It was a true worde that I heard in mine owne lande of thy sayings, and of thy wisedome.
7 Nyemexɔe se o va se ɖe esime meva ɖo afi sia. Ke azɔ la, nye ŋutɔ mekpɔ wo katã na ɖokuinye! Kpɔ ɖa, womegblɔ ale si tututu nuwo le la ƒe afã gɔ̃ hã nam o! Wò nunya kple kesinɔtɔnyenye ƒo nu siwo katã mese kpɔ la ta!
Howebeit I beleeued not this report till I came, and had seene it with mine eyes: but lo, ye one halfe was not tolde mee: for thou hast more wisedome and prosperitie, then I haue heard by report.
8 Wò amewo akpɔ dzidzɔ ŋutɔ, dzidzɔ ka gbegbe wò dɔnunɔla siwo tsia tsitre ɖe wò ŋkume ɣe sia ɣi eye wosea wò nunya la makpɔ o!
Happy are the men, happie are these thy seruants, which stande euer before thee, and heare thy wisedome.
9 Woakafu Yehowa, wò Mawu, ame si tia wò eye wòtsɔ wò da ɖe Israel ƒe fiazikpui dzi. Yehowa ƒe lɔlɔ̃ mavɔ na Israel wɔe be, wòtsɔ wò na wo abe woƒe fia ene be nàdrɔ̃ ʋɔnu dzɔdzɔe eye nàɖu wò amewo dzi le mɔ dzɔdzɔe nu!”
Blessed be the Lord thy God, which loued thee, to set thee on the throne of Israel, because the Lord loued Israel for euer and made thee King to doe equitie and righteousnesse.
10 Eye Seba fianyɔnu la tsɔ sika tɔn ene, atikeʋeʋĩ gbogbo aɖewo kple kpe xɔasiwo na fia la. Ame aɖeke metsɔ atikeʋeʋĩ aɖeke vɛ kpɔ nenema abe esiwo Seba fianyɔnu la tsɔ na Fia Solomo ene o.
And she gaue the King sixe score talents of golde, and of sweete odours exceeding much, and precious stones. There came no more such aboundance of sweete odours, as the Queene of Sheba gaue to King Salomon.
11 Esi Fia Hiram ƒe tɔdziʋuwo tsɔ sika tso Ofir vɛ na Fia Solomo la, wotsɔ papawuti kple kpe xɔasi geɖewo hã vɛ nɛ.
The nauie also of Hiram (that caried gold from Ophir) brought likewise great plentie of Almuggim trees from Ophir and precious stones.
12 Solomo tsɔ papawutiawo wɔ sɔtiwo na gbedoxɔ la kple fiasã la kple saŋkuwo kple kasaŋkuwo na eƒe hadzilawo. Wometsɔ ati nyui sia tɔgbi vɛ nɛ kpɔ do ŋgɔ loo alo kplɔ esia ɖo kpɔ o.
And the King made of ye Almuggim trees pillars for the house of the Lord, and for ye Kings palace, and made harpes and psalteries for singers. There came no more such Almuggim trees, nor were any more seene vnto this day.
13 Le nunana siwo Seba fianyɔnu la tsɔ vɛ na Fia Solomo ta la, Fia Solomo hã na nu sia nu si fianyɔnu la biae hekpe ɖe nunana siwo eya ŋutɔ dzra ɖo be yeanae la ŋuti eye fianyɔnu la kple eƒe subɔlawo trɔ yi wo de.
And King Salomon gaue vnto the Queene of Sheba, whatsoeuer she would aske, besides that, which Salomon gaue her of his kingly liberalitie: so she returned and went to her owne countrey, both shee, and her seruantes.
14 Sika si Solomo xɔna ƒe sia ƒe la dea tɔn blaeve vɔ atɔ̃
Also the weight of golde, that came to Salomon in one yeere, was sixe hundreth three score and six talents of gold,
15 hekpe ɖe adzɔ siwo wòxɔna tso adzɔdolawo kple asitsalawo kple Arabia fiawo katã kple mɔmefia siwo le anyigba la dzi ɖum la gbɔ ŋu.
Besides that he had of marchant men and of the marchandises of them that solde spices, and of all the Kinges of Arabia, and of the princes of the countrey.
16 Fia Solomo tsɔ sika wɔ akpoxɔnu gã alafa eve. Wotsɔ sika kilogram etɔ̃ kple afã wɔ wo dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe.
And King Salomon made two hundreth targets of beaten golde, sixe hundreth shekels of gold went to a target:
17 Egatsɔ sika wɔ akpoxɔnu ɖagbitɔ alafa etɔ̃. Wotsɔ sika kilogram etɔ̃ kple afã wɔ wo dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe. Fia la tsɔ nu siawo da ɖe Lebanon ƒe Avexɔ la me le eƒe fiasã la me.
And three hundreth shieldes of beaten golde, three pound of gold went to one shielde: and the King put them in the house of the wood of Lebanon.
18 Fia la kpa fiazikpui gã aɖe. Etsɔ nyiɖu fa ɖe eme eye wòtsɔ sika nyuitɔ fa ɖe eŋu.
Then the King made a great throne of yuorie, and couered it with the best golde.
19 Atrakpui ade nɔ fiazikpui la ŋu eye wowɔ afi si wodea mee la nogoo. Abɔɖoƒe nɔ zikpuia ƒe axa eveawo dzi eye wowɔ dzata si le tsitre la da ɖe abɔɖoƒe aveawo ƒe axadzi.
And the throne had six steps, and the top of the throne was round behind, and there were stayes on either side on the place of the throne, and two lions standing by the stayes.
20 Dzata wuieve le atrakpui adeawo ƒe axawo kple eve dzi. Fiazikpui aɖeke meganyo abe esia ene le fiaɖuƒe aɖeke me o.
And there stoode twelue lions on the sixe steps on either side: there was not the like made in any kingdome.
21 Wotsɔ sika wɔ kplu siwo katã me Fia Solomo noa nu le eye nenema ke wotsɔ sika nyuitɔ wɔ nuɖugba kple nuɖaze siwo katã nɔ Lebanon ƒe Avexɔ la me. Womewɔ naneke kple klosalo o elabena le Solomo ƒe ɣeyiɣiwo me la, womebua klosalo be enye nu xɔasi o.
And all King Salomons drinking vessels were of golde, and all the vessels of the house of the woode of Lebanon were of pure golde, none were of siluer: for it was nothing esteemed in the dayes of Salomon.
22 Asitsatɔdziʋu geɖewo nɔ fia la si siwo yia asigbe le atsiaƒu dzi kple Hiram tɔwo. Wotrɔna gbɔna zi ɖeka le ƒe etɔ̃ me kple sika, klosalo, nyiɖu kple kese ƒomevi vovovowo kple xewo.
For the King had on the sea the nauie of Tharshish with the nauie of Hiram: once in three yere came the nauie of Tharshish, and brought golde and siluer, yuorie, and apes and peacockes.
23 Ale Fia Solomo de ŋgɔ wu anyigbadzifiawo katã le kesinɔnuwo kple nunya me.
So King Salomon exceeded all the kings of the earth both in riches and in wisedome.
24 Xexea me tɔwo katã vaa Solomo gbɔ hena aɖaŋuxɔxɔ eye be woaɖo to nunya si Mawu tsɔ de eƒe dzi me.
And al the world sought to see Salomon, to heare his wisedome, which God had put in his heart,
25 Wo dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe tsɔa klosalo, sika, awuwo, aʋawɔnuwo, atike ʋeʋĩwo, sɔwo kple tedzisɔwo va nanɛ ƒe sia ƒe.
And they brought euery man his present, vessels of siluer, and vessels of golde, and raiment, and armour, and sweete odours, horses and mules, from yeere to yeere.
26 Tasiaɖam akpe ɖeka alafa ene kple sɔdola akpe wuieve nɔ Solomo si. Wonɔ tasiaɖamduwo me eye ɖewo nɔ fia la gbɔ le Yerusalem.
Then Salomon gathered together charrets and horsemen: and he had a thousand and foure hundreth charets, and twelue thousande horsemen, whome hee placed in the charet cities, and with the King at Ierusalem.
27 Fia la na klosalo bɔ ɖe Yerusalem abe ale si kpewo nɔa mɔ dzi ene eye wowɔa sedati ŋu dɔ abe ale si wowɔa gboti si bɔ fũu la ŋu dɔ ene.
And the King gaue siluer in Ierusalem as stones, and gaue cedars as the wilde figtrees that growe abundantly in the plaine.
28 Wodɔa Solomo ƒe sɔwo tsoa Egipte kple Kue. Fia la ƒe asitsalawo ƒlea wo tso Kue.
Also Salomon had horses brought out of Egypt, and fine linen: the Kings marchants receiued the linen for a price.
29 Wodɔ tasiaɖam tso Egipte esi ƒe asie nye klosaloga kilogram adre kple sɔ si ƒe asie nye klosaloga kilogram ɖeka kple afã. Woawo hã dzraa wo na dutafiawo, ame siwo nye Hititɔwo kple Aramtɔwo ƒe fiawo.
There came vp and went out of Egypt some charet, worth sixe hundreth shekels of siluer: that is, one horse, an hundreth and fiftie and thus they brought horses to all the Kings of the Hittites and to the Kings of Aram by their meanes.
