1 Sarakuna 10
1 Sa’ad da sarauniyar Sheba ta ji game da sunan da Solomon ya yi, da kuma dangantakarsa da Ubangiji, sai ta zo tă gwada shi da tambayoyi masu wuya.
Now the queen of Sheba, hearing great things of Solomon, came to put his wisdom to the test with hard questions.
2 Ta iso Urushalima da tawaga mai yawa, tare da raƙuma masu ɗauke da kayan yaji, da zinariya masu yawa, da duwatsu masu daraja. Ta zo wurin Solomon ta kuwa yi magana da shi game da dukan abin da take da shi a ranta.
And she came to Jerusalem with a very great train, with camels weighted down with spices, and stores of gold and jewels: and when she came to Solomon she had talk with him of everything in her mind.
3 Solomon ya amsa dukan tambayoyinta, ba abin da ya yi wa sarki wuyan bayyanawa mata.
And Solomon gave her answers to all her questions; there was no secret which the king did not make clear to her.
4 Da sarauniya Sheba ta ga dukan hikimar Solomon da fadan da ya gina.
And when the queen of Sheba had seen all the wisdom of Solomon, and the house which he had made,
5 Da irin abincin da yake kan teburinsa, da irin zaman fadawansa, da irin rigunan masu hidimarsa, da irin masu shayarwarsa, da kuma hadayun ƙonawar da yake yi a haikalin Ubangiji, sai ta yi mamaki ƙwarai.
And the food at his table, and all his servants seated there, and those who were waiting on him in their places, and their robes, and his wine-servants, and the burned offerings which he made in the house of the Lord, there was no more spirit in her.
6 Ta ce wa sarki, “Labarin da na ji a ƙasata game da abin da ka yi da kuma hikimarka gaskiya ne.
And she said to the king, The account which was given to me in my country of your acts and your wisdom was true.
7 Amma ban gaskata waɗannan abubuwa ba sai da na zo na gani da idanuna. Tabbatacce, ba a ma faɗa mini ko rabi ba. Gama cikin hikima da arziki, ka wuce labarin da na ji nesa ba kusa ba.
But I had no faith in what was said about you, till I came and saw for myself; and now I see that it was not half the story; your wisdom and your wealth are much greater than they said.
8 Abin farin ciki ne ga mutanenka! Abin farin ciki ne ga fadawanka, waɗanda suke cin gaba da tsayawa a gabanka suna kuma jin hikimarka!
Happy are your wives, happy are these your servants whose place is ever before you, hearing your words of wisdom.
9 Yabo ga Ubangiji Allahnka, wanda ya ji daɗinka, ya kuma sa ka a kujerar sarautar Isra’ila. Ubangiji ya naɗa ka sarki saboda madawwamiyar ƙaunar wa Isra’ila, don ka yi shari’a da adalci.”
May the Lord your God be praised, whose pleasure it was to put you on the seat of the kingdom of Israel; because the Lord's love for Israel is eternal, he has made you king, to be their judge in righteousness.
10 Ta kuma ba sarki talenti 120 na zinariya, da kayan yaji masu yawa, da kuma duwatsu masu daraja. Ba a taɓa kawo kayan yaji da yawa haka kamar yadda sarauniyar Sheba ta ba wa Sarki Solomon ba.
And she gave the king a hundred and twenty talents of gold, and a great store of spices and jewels: never again was such a wealth of spices seen as that which the queen of Sheba gave King Solomon.
11 (Jiragen ruwan Hiram suka kawo zinariya daga Ofir. Daga can kuma suka kawo kaya masu yawa na katakon almug, da kuma duwatsu masu daraja.
And the sea-force of Hiram, in addition to gold from Ophir, came back with much sandal-wood and jewels.
12 Sarki ya yi amfani da almug don yă yi kayan ado wa haikalin Ubangiji da kuma don fadan sarki, don kuma yă yi molaye, da garayu saboda mawaƙa. Ba a taɓa yin jigilar katakon almug ko a gani irin yawan katakai haka ba har wa yau.)
And from the sandal-wood the king made pillars for the house of the Lord, and for the king's house, and instruments of music for the makers of melody: never has such sandal-wood been seen to this day.
13 Sarki Solomon ya ba wa sarauniyar Sheba dukan abin da take so, da kuma duk abin da ta nema, ban da abin da ya ba ta daga yalwar fadan sarki. Sa’an nan ta koma tare da tawagarta zuwa ƙasarta.
And King Solomon gave the queen of Sheba all her desire, whatever she made request for, in addition to what he gave her freely from the impulse of his heart. So she went back to her country, she and her servants.
14 Nauyin zinariya da Solomon yake samun kowace shekara, talenti 666 ne.
Now the weight of gold which came to Solomon in one year was six hundred and sixty-six talents;
15 Ban da haraji daga’yan kasuwa, da fatake, da kuma daga dukan sarakunan Arabiya, da gwamnonin ƙasar.
In addition to what came to him from the business of the traders, and from all the kings of the Arabians, and from the rulers of the country.
16 Sarki Solomon ya yi manyan garkuwoyi ɗari biyu na zinariya. An yi kowace garkuwa da zinariya bekas ɗari shida.
And Solomon made two hundred body-covers of hammered gold, every one having six hundred shekels of gold in it.
17 Ya kuma yi ƙananan garkuwoyi ɗari uku na zinariya. An yi kowane garkuwa da zinariya minas uku. Ya sa su a cikin Fadar Kurmin Lebanon.
And he made three hundred smaller body-covers of hammered gold, with three pounds of gold in every cover: and the king put them in the house of the Woods of Lebanon.
18 Sa’an nan sarki ya yi kujerar sarauta mai nauyin giram na hauren giwa, aka kuma dalaye ta da zinariya zalla.
Then the king made a great ivory seat, plated with the best gold.
19 Kujera sarautar ta kasance da matakai shida, kuma bayanta tana da bisa mai kamannin gammo. A kowane gefen kujerar akwai wurin sa hannu, da kuma zaki tsaye kusa da kowannensu.
There were six steps going up to it, and the top of it was round at the back, there were arms on the two sides of the seat, and two lions by the side of the arms;
20 Zakoki goma sha biyu suna tsaye a matakai shida, ɗaya a kowane gefen ƙarshen mataki. Babu ƙasar da an taɓa gina irin wannan kujerar mulki.
And twelve lions were placed on the one side and on the other side on the six steps: there was nothing like it in any kingdom.
21 Dukan kwaf Solomon zinariya ne, kuma dukan kayayyakin gida a Fadan da ake kira Kurmin Lebanon, zinariya ce zalla. Babu wani abin da aka yi da azurfa, domin ba a ɗauki azurfa a bakin kome ba a zamanin Solomon.
And all King Solomon's drinking-vessels were of gold, and all the vessels of the house of the Woods of Lebanon were of the best gold; not one was of silver, for no one gave a thought to silver in the days of King Solomon.
22 Sarki yana da jerin jiragen ruwan kasuwanci a teku, tare da jiragen ruwan Hiram. Sau ɗaya kowace shekara uku jerin jiragen yakan dawo ɗauke da zinariya, da azurfa, da hauren giwa, da birai marasa wutsiya, da kuma gogon biri.
For the king had Tarshish-ships at sea with the ships of Hiram; once every three years the Tarshish-ships came with gold and silver and ivory and monkeys and peacocks.
23 Sarki Solomon ya yi suna a wadata fiye da dukan sarakunan duniya.
And King Solomon was greater than all the kings of the earth in wealth and in wisdom.
24 Dukan duniya ta nemi su zo wurin Solomon don su ji hikimar da Allah ya sa a zuciyarsa.
And from all over the earth they came to see Solomon and to give ear to his wisdom, which God had put in his heart.
25 Kowace shekara, kowa da ya zo wurinsa yakan kawo kyautai, kayayyakin azurfa da na zinariya, riguna, makamai, da kayan yaji, dawakai da alfadarai.
And everyone took with him an offering, vessels of silver and vessels of gold, and robes, and coats of metal, and spices, and horses, and beasts of transport, regularly year by year.
26 Solomon ya tara kekunan yaƙi da dawakai; ya kasance da kekunan yaƙi dubu goma sha huɗu, da dawakai dubu goma sha biyu waɗanda ya ajiye a biranen kekunan yaƙi, ya kuma ajiye tare da shi a Urushalima.
And Solomon got together war-carriages and horsemen; he had one thousand, four hundred carriages and twelve thousand horsemen, whom he kept, some in the carriage-towns and some with the king at Jerusalem.
27 Sarki ya mai da azurfa barkatai a cikin Urushalima kamar duwatsu, al’ul kuma da yawa kamar itatuwan fir na jumaiza a gindin tuddai.
And the king made silver as common as stones in Jerusalem and cedars like the sycamore-trees of the lowlands in number.
28 An yi jigilar dawakan Solomon daga Masar da kuma daga Kuye,’yan kasuwan fadan sarki sun sayo su daga Kuye.
And Solomon's horses came from Egypt and from Kue; the king's traders got them at a price from Kue.
29 Suka yi jigilar kekunan yaƙi daga Masar a bakin shekel ɗari shida na azurfa, doki ɗaya kuma a kan ɗari da hamsin. Sun kuma yi jigilarsu suna sayarwa ga dukan sarakunan Hittiyawa da na Arameyawa.
A war-carriage might be got from Egypt for six hundred shekels of silver, and a horse for a hundred and fifty; they got them at the same rate for all the kings of the Hittites and the kings of Aram.
