1 Sa’ad da sarauniyar Sheba ta ji shahararr Solomon, sai ta zo Urushalima tă gwada shi da tambayoyi masu wuya. Ta iso tare da ayari mai girma, da raƙuma ɗauke da kayan yaji, zinariya mai yawa, da kuma duwatsu masu daraja, ta zo wurin Solomon ta kuma yi magana da shi game da dukan abin da yake zuciyarta.
And, the queen of Sheba, heard the report of Solomon, so she came to prove Solomon with abstruse questions, in Jerusalem, with a very great train, and camels bearing spices, and gold in abundance, and precious stones, —and, when she was come to Solomon, she spake with him, as to all that was near her heart.
2 Solomon ya amsa dukan tambayoyinta; babu wani abin da ya yi masa wuya yă bayyana mata.
And Solomon answered her all her questions, —and there was nothing hidden from Solomon, which he told her not.
3 Sa’ad da sarauniyar Sheba ta ga hikimar Solomon da kuma fadan da ya gina,
And, when the queen of Sheba had seen the wisdom of Solomon, and the house which he had built;
4 ta ga abincin da yake teburinsa, ta ga zaman fadawansa, bayi masu yin masa hidima cikin rigunansu, ta ga masu riƙe kwaf cikin rigunansu da kuma hadayun ƙonawar da ya yi a haikalin Ubangiji, sai mamaki ya kama ta.
and the food of his table, and the seats of his servants, and the standing of his attendants, with their apparel, and his cupbearers, and their apparel, and his ascent whereby he used to ascend the house of Yahweh, then was there in her no more spirit.
5 Ta ce wa sarki, “Labarin da na ji a ƙasata game da nasarorinka da hikimarka, gaskiya ne.
And she said unto the king, True was the word, which I heard in my own land, —concerning thine affairs, and concerning thy wisdom.
6 Amma ban gaskata abin da suka faɗa ba sai da na zo na kuma gani da idanuna. Tabbatacce, ko rabin girman hikimarka ba a faɗa mini ba, ka wuce labarin da na ji nesa ba kusa ba.
Howbeit I believed not their words, until I had come and mine own eyes had seen, when lo! there had not been told me, the half of the fulness of thy wisdom, —thou dost exceed the report which I heard.
7 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 men, and how happy! are these thy servants, —who are standing before thee continually, and hearing thy wisdom.
8 Yabo ya tabbata ga Ubangiji Allahnka, wanda ya ji daɗi a cikinka ya sa ka a kan kujerar sarautarsa a matsayin sarki don ka yi mulkin domin Ubangiji Allahnka. Saboda ƙaunar Allahnka wa Isra’ila da kuma sha’awarsa na riƙe su har abada, ya naɗa ka sarki a bisansu, don ka yi adalci da kuma gaskiya.”
Yahweh thy God be blessed, who hath delighted in thee, to set thee upon his throne as king unto Yahweh thy God. Because of the love of thy God unto Israel, to establish them unto times age-abiding, therefore hath he set thee over them, as king, to execute justice and righteousness.
9 Sa’an nan ta ba sarki talenti 120 na zinariya, kayan yaji masu yawa, da kuma duwatsu masu daraja. Ba a taɓa kasance da irin kayan yaji mai yawa kamar waɗanda 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, —and there was none like that spice, which the queen of Sheba gave unto King Solomon.
10 (Mutanen Hiram da mutanen Solomon suka kawo zinariya daga Ofir, suka kuma kawo gungumen algum da duwatsu masu daraja.
Moreover also, the servants of Huram, and the servants of Solomon, who brought gold from Ophir, brought sandal-wood and precious stones.
11 Sarki ya yi amfani da gungumen algum don matakalan haikalin Ubangiji da kuma na fadan sarki, ya kuma yi garayu da molaye don mawaƙa. Ba a taɓa gani irinsu a Yahuda ba.)
And the king made of the sandal-wood, stairs unto the house of Yahweh, and unto the house of the king, also lyres and harps, for the singers, —and there were none seen like them before, in the land of Judah.
12 Sarki Solomon ya ba sarauniyar Sheba duk abin da take so da kuma ta nema; ya ba ta fiye da abin da ta kawo masa. Sa’an nan ta tashi ta koma ƙasarta tare da masu rufe mata baya.
And, King Solomon, gave to the queen of Sheba all her desire, whatsoever she asked, besides [a return for] that which she had brought unto the king, —so she turned, and went away to her own land, she, and her servants.
13 Nauyin zinariyar da Solomon yake karɓa shekara-shekara talenti 666 ne,
Now, the weight of gold that came to Solomon in one year, was six hundred and sixty-six talents of gold;
14 ban da harajin da fatakai da’yan kasuwa suke biya. Haka kuma dukan sarakunan Arabiya da gwamnonin ƙasar suka kawo zinariya da azurfa wa Solomon.
besides what came in from the subjugated, and what the travelling merchants were bringing in, —and, all the kings of Arabia and the pashas of the land, were bringing gold and silver, unto Solomon.
15 Sarki Solomon ya yi manyan garkuwoyi ɗari biyu da zinariya; an yi kowane garkuwa da bekas ɗari shida na zinariya.
And King Solomon made two hundred shields of beaten gold, —six hundred [shekels] of beaten gold, overlay one shield;
16 Ya kuma yi ƙanana garkuwoyi zinariya ɗari uku, da bekas ɗari uku na zinariya a kowanne. Sarki ya sa su a cikin Fadan da ake kira Kurmin Lebanon.
also three hundred bucklers of beaten gold, three hundred [shekels] of gold, overlay one buckler, —and the king placed them in the house of the forest of Lebanon.
17 Sai sarki ya yi wata kujerar sarauta mai girma da aka shafe ta da hauren giwa, aka kuma dalaye ta da zinariya zalla.
And the king made a great throne of ivory, —and overlaid it with pure gold;
18 Kujerar tana da matakalai shida, da wurin sa ƙafa na zinariya haɗe da ita. A kowane gefen wurin zama, akwai wurin ajiye hannu, da zaki tsaye kusa da kowannensu.
and there were six steps to the throne, and a footstool in gold, unto the throne, made fast, and supports, on this side and on that, unto the seat, —and, two lions, standing by the supports;
19 Zakoki goma sha biyu sun tsaya a kan matakalai shida, ɗaya a ƙarshen matakala guda. Ba a taɓa yin irin wannan abu don wata masarauta ba.
and, twelve lions, standing there upon the six steps, on this side and on that, —there was never made the like, for any kingdom.
20 Dukan kwaf na Sarki Solomon zinariya ne, kuma dukan kayayyakin gida a Fadan da ake kira Kurmin Lebanon zinariya ne zalla. Ba a yi wani abu da azurfa ba, domin ba a ɗauki azurfa a zamanin Solomon a bakin kome ba.
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 purified gold, —there was no silver, it was esteemed, in the days of Solomon, as nothing.
21 Sarki yana da jerin jiragen ruwa na kasuwanci waɗanda mutanen Hiram ne suke kula da su. Sau ɗaya kowace shekara uku sukan dawo ɗauke da zinariya, azurfa, hauren giwa, gogo da kuma birai.
For, the ships of the king, used to go to Tarshish, with the servants of Huram, —once in three years, came in the ships of Tarshish, bearing gold and silver, ivory and apes, and peacocks.
22 Sarki Solomon ya fi arziki da hikima in aka kwatanta da dukan sauran sarakunan duniya.
And so King Solomon became greater than all the kings of the earth, —as to riches, and wisdom.
23 Dukan sarakunan duniya sun nemi su sadu da Solomon don su ji hikimar da Allah ya sa a zuciyarsa.
And, all the kings of the earth, were seeking the face of Solomon, —to hear his wisdom, which God had put in his heart;
24 Shekara, shekara, duk wanda ya zo wurinsa yakan kawo kyauta, kayayyakin azurfa da na zinariya, da riguna, makamai da kayan yaji, da dawakai da kuma alfadarai.
and, they, were bringing in every man his present—utensils of silver, and utensils of gold, and mantles, armour, and spices, horses and mules, —the need of a year in a year.
25 Solomon ya kasance da wuraren ajiye dawakai dubu huɗu don dawakai da kekunan yaƙi, yana da dawakai dubu goma sha biyu waɗanda ya ajiye a biranen kekunan yaƙi da kuma tare da shi a Urushalima.
And Solomon had four thousand stalls of horses, and chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen, —and he settled them in the chariot cities, and with the king in Jerusalem.
26 Ya yi mulki bisa dukan sarakuna daga Kogi Yuferites zuwa ƙasar Filistiyawa, har zuwa iyakar Masar.
And he ruled over all the kings, —from the river [Euphrates], even up to the land of the Philistines, yea up to the bounds of Egypt.
27 Sarki ya sa azurfa ta zama barkatai a Urushalima kamar duwatsu, al’ul kuma da yawa kamar itatuwan fir a gindin tsaunuka.
And the king made the silver in Jerusalem like the stones, —and, the cedar trees, made he like the sycomores which are in the lowland, for abundance.
28 An sayo dawakan Solomon daga Masar da kuma daga dukan sauran ƙasashe.
And they used to bring horses out of Egypt unto Solomon, and out of all lands.
29 Game da sauran ayyukan mulkin Solomon, daga farko har zuwa ƙarshe, an rubuta su a cikin tarihin annabi Natan, cikin annabcin Ahiya mutumin Shilo da kuma cikin wahayin Iddo mai gani game da Yerobowam ɗan Nebat.
Now, the rest of the acts of Solomon, first and last, are they not written in the records of Nathan the prophet, and in the prophecy of Ahijah the Shilonite, and in the visions of Iddo the seer, concerning Jeroboam son of Nebat?
30 Solomon ya yi mulki a Urushalima a bisa dukan Isra’ila shekaru arba’in.
And Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel, forty years.
31 Sa’an nan ya huta tare da kakanninsa, aka kuma binne shi cikin birnin Dawuda mahaifinsa. Rehobowam ɗansa kuwa ya gāje shi a matsayin sarki.
And Solomon slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David his father, —and Rehoboam his son reigned in his stead.
