< 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.
And when the queen of Sheba heard of the fame of Solomon in connection with the name of the Lord, she came to prove him with riddles.
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 an exceedingly great train, with camels bearing spices, and gold in great abundance, and precious stones: and when she was come to Solomon, she spoke with him of all that was on her heart.
3 Solomon ya amsa dukan tambayoyinta, ba abin da ya yi wa sarki wuyan bayyanawa mata.
And Solomon solved [for] her all her questions: nothing remained hidden from the king, which he did not tell her.
4 Da sarauniya Sheba ta ga dukan hikimar Solomon da fadan da ya gina.
And when the queen of Sheba saw all Solomon's wisdom, and the house that he had built,
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 of his table, and the sitting of his servants, and the attendance of his ministers, and their apparel, and his cup-bearers, and his ascent by which he went up unto 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 truth only was the word that I heard in my own land of thy acts and of thy wisdom.
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.
And I believed not in the words, until I came, and my eyes saw [all]: and, behold, the half hath not been told me; thou excellest in wisdom and prosperity the report which I have heard.
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 thy men, happy are these thy servants, who stand before thee continually, who hear thy 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.”
Blessed be the Lord thy God, who hath had delight in thee, to place thee on the throne of Israel; because the Lord loveth Israel for ever, therefore hath he made thee king, to do justice and 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 to the king one hundred and twenty talents of gold, and of spices a very great store, and precious stones: there came no more spices in such abundance as these which the queen of Sheba gave to 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 also the ship of Hiram, that fetched gold from Ophir, brought in from Ophir in great abundance sandal-wood and precious stones.
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 the king made of the sandal-wood a railing for the house of the Lord, and for the king's house, and harps and psalteries for the singers: there came no such sandal-wood, nor was it seen [again] until 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 unto the queen of Sheba all her pleasure, whatsoever she asked, beside what Solomon gave her of his royal bounty. So she turned about and went to her own country, she and her servants.
14 Nauyin zinariya da Solomon yake samun kowace shekara, talenti 666 ne.
Now the weight of the gold that came to Solomon in one year was six hundred and sixty and six talents of gold,
15 Ban da haraji daga’yan kasuwa, da fatake, da kuma daga dukan sarakunan Arabiya, da gwamnonin ƙasar.
Beside [what he had] of the traveling tradesmen, and of the traffic of the merchants, and of the kings of confederate nations, and of the governors of the country.
16 Sarki Solomon ya yi manyan garkuwoyi ɗari biyu na zinariya. An yi kowace garkuwa da zinariya bekas ɗari shida.
And king Solomon made two hundred targets of beaten gold: six hundred shekels of gold he used for each one target.
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 shields of beaten gold; three manehs of gold he used for each one shield: and the king put them in the house of the forest of Lebanon.
18 Sa’an nan sarki ya yi kujerar sarauta mai nauyin giram na hauren giwa, aka kuma dalaye ta da zinariya zalla.
The king also made a great throne of ivory, and overlaid it 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.
The throne had six steps, and there was a round top on the throne behind; and there were arms on either side on the place of the seat, and two lions stood beside 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 stood there upon the six steps on both sides: there was not the like made in any other 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 forest of Lebanon were of pure gold; none were of silver; it was not valued in the days of Solomon at the least.
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 a Tharshish-ship at sea with the ship of Hiram: once in three years the Tharshish-ship used to come home, laden with gold, and silver, ivory, and apes, and peacocks.
23 Sarki Solomon ya yi suna a wadata fiye da dukan sarakunan duniya.
And king Solomon became greater than all the kings of the earth for riches and for wisdom.
24 Dukan duniya ta nemi su zo wurin Solomon don su ji hikimar da Allah ya sa a zuciyarsa.
And [men of] all the earth sought the presence of Solomon to hear 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 they brought every man his present, vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and garments, and armor, and spices, horses, and mules: and so 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 gathered together chariots and horsemen: and he had a thousand and four hundred chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen, whom he quartered in the cities for chariots, and near 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 rendered the silver in Jerusalem like stones, and the cedars he rendered like the sycamore-trees that are in the lowlands, for abundance.
28 An yi jigilar dawakan Solomon daga Masar da kuma daga Kuye,’yan kasuwan fadan sarki sun sayo su daga Kuye.
And Solomon had horses brought out of Egypt; and a company of the king's merchants bought a quantity at a price.
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.
And a chariot-team came up and went out of Egypt for six hundred shekels of silver, and a horse for a hundred and fifty: and so for all the kings of the Hittites, and for the kings of Syria, did they bring them out by their means.
