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 the report of Solomon, as pertaining to the Name of Yahweh, she came to prove him, with abstruse 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.
Yea she came to Jerusalem with a very heavily-laden train, of camels bearing spices, and gold in great abundance, and precious stones, —and, when she was come to Solomon, she spake unto him all that was near her heart;
3 Solomon ya amsa dukan tambayoyinta, ba abin da ya yi wa sarki wuyan bayyanawa mata.
and Solomon answered her all her questions, —there was nothing hidden from the king, which he told her not.
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 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 seated assembly of his servants, and the attendance of his ministers with their apparel, and his cupbearers, and his ascent by which he ascended unto the house of Yahweh, there was in her no more spirit.
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 unto the king, True, was the word which I heard in mine own land, —concerning thine affairs, and concerning 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.
Howbeit I believed not the words, until that I had come and mine own eyes had seen, and lo! there had not been told me, the half, —thou dost exceed, in wisdom and prosperity, even the report which I 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!
How happy, are thy wives, how happy, are these thy servants, —who do 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.”
Yahweh thy God be blessed, who delighted in thee, to set thee upon the throne of Israel, —because Yahweh loveth Israel unto times age-abiding, therefore hath he appointed thee to be king, to execute 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 unto the king a hundred and twenty talents of gold, and spices in great abundance, and precious stones, —there came in no more, such spice for abundance, as that which the queen of Sheba gave unto 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.
Moreover also, the fleet of Hiram, which brought gold from Ophir, brought in, from Ophir sandal-wood in great abundance, 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.)
So the king made of the sandal-wood a footpath to the house of Yahweh, and to the house of the king, lyres also and harps, for the singers, —there hath neither come in such sandal-wood, nor been seen, unto 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, when, King Solomon, had given unto the queen of Sheba, all her desire, which she asked, besides that which he gave her as the bounty of King Solomon, she turned, and went to her own land, she and her servants.
14 Nauyin zinariya da Solomon yake samun kowace shekara, talenti 666 ne.
And it came to pass that, the weight of the gold which came in unto Solomon in one year, was six hundred and sixty-six talents of gold;
15 Ban da haraji daga’yan kasuwa, da fatake, da kuma daga dukan sarakunan Arabiya, da gwamnonin ƙasar.
besides the tribute of the subjugated, and of the travelling merchants, —and of all the kings of Arabia, and the pashas of the land.
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 shields, of beaten gold, six hundred [shekels] of gold, laid he upon one shield;
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 three hundred bucklers, of beaten gold, one hundred and fifty shekels of gold, laid he upon one buckler, —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.
And the king made a great throne of ivory, —and overlaid it with gold from Uphaz.
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, to the throne, and there was, a circular top, to the throne, behind it, and there were supports on this side and on that, unto the place of the seat, —with two lions standing beside the supports;
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 standing there, upon the six steps, on this side and on that, —there had never been made the like, for any of the kingdoms.
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 the drinking vessels of King Solomon, were of gold, and, all the vessels of the house of the forest of Lebanon, were of pure gold, —none was of silver, it was accounted in the days of Solomon, as nothing.
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, a fleet of Tarshish, had the king, at sea, with the fleet of Hiram, —once in three years, came in the fleet of Tarshish, bringing gold and silver, ivory and apes, and peacocks.
23 Sarki Solomon ya yi suna a wadata fiye da dukan sarakunan duniya.
So King Solomon became greater than any of 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, all the earth, did seek the face 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, did bring every man his present—vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and garments, and armour, and spices, horses and mules, —a rate of a year in a 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 so it was that he had a thousand and four hundred chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen, —for whom he found place in the chariot cities, and near the king, in 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 caused silver in Jerusalem to be as stones, —cedars also, caused he to be as the sycamores 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 the horses that Solomon had were, an export, out of Egypt, —and, a company of the merchants of the king, used to fetch, a drove, 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 came up and forth 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, by their means, came they forth.
