I Na Lii 10

1 A LOHE ae la ko alii wahine o Seba i ke kaulana o Solomona, no ka inoa o Iehova, hele mai la oia e hoao ia ia i na mea pohihihi.

Now the queen of Sheba, hearing great things of Solomon, came to put his wisdom to the test with hard questions.

2 Hele mai la hoi oia i Ierusalema me ka huakai nui loa, a me na kamelo e halihali ana i na mea ala, a me ke gula he nui loa, a me na pohaku makamae; a hiki mai ia io Solomona la, kamailio mai la oia me ia i na mea a pau iloko o kona naau.

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 Hoakaka aku la o Solomona i na mea a pau ana i ninau mai ai, aohe mea hunaia i ke alii, ana i hai ole aku ai ia ia.

And Solomon gave her answers to all her questions; there was no secret which the king did not make clear to her.

4 A ike ae la ke alii wahine o Seba, i ke akamai a pau a Solomona, a me ka hale ana i kukulu ai,

And when the queen of Sheba had seen all the wisdom of Solomon, and the house which he had made,

5 A me ka ai o kona papaaina, a me ka noho ana o kana mau kauwa, a me ke ku ana mai o kona poe lawelawe, me ko lakou kahiko ana, a me kona poe lawe kiaha, a me kona alapii i pii ai oia i ka hale o Iehova; aole ae la he hanu iloko ona.

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 A olelo ae la oia i ke alii, He olelo oiaio ka'u i lohe ai ma ko'u aina no kau mau hana a me kou akamai:

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 Aka, aole au i manaoio ia mau olelo, a hiki mai nei au, a ike ko'u mau maka, aia hoi, aole no ka hapalua i haiia mai ia'u; na kela aku kou akamai a me kou pomaikai mamua o ke kaulana a'u i lohe ai.

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 Pomaikai kou poe kanaka, pomaikai kau poe kauwa, ka poe e ku mau ana ma kou alo, e hoolohe ana i kou akamai.

Happy are your wives, happy are these your servants whose place is ever before you, hearing your words of wisdom.

9 E hoomaikaiia'ku o Iehova kou Akua, ka mea i olioli mai ia oe e hoonoho iho ia oe ma ka nohoalii o ka Iseraela; no ko Iehova aloha mau ana i ka Iseraela, nolaila i hoolilo ai oia ia oe i alii e hooponopono, a e hana ma ka maikai.

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 Haawi ae la hoi ia wahine i ke alii i hookahi haneri mo ka iwakalua talena gula, a mo na mea ala he nui loa, a me na pohaku makamae; aole hiki hou mai ka nui loa o na mea ala me neia a ke alii wahine o Seba i haawi mai ai ia Solomona ke alii.

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 A o na moku hoi o Hirama i lawe mai i ke gula mai Opera mai, ua lawe pu mai i na laau alemuga he nui loa, mai Opera mai, a me na pohaku makamae.

And the sea-force of Hiram, in addition to gold from Ophir, came back with much sandal-wood and jewels.

12 Hana iho la ke alii i na laau alemuga i mau kia no ka hale o Iehova, a no ka hale o ke alii, a me na lira, a me na pesaleteria no ka poe mele; aole hiki mai na laau alemuga e like me neia, aole hoi i ikeia a hiki i keia la.

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 A haawi aku la o Solomona ke alii i ke alii wahine o Seba i kona makemake a pau, i kela mea keia mea ana i noi mai ai; o kana ia i haawi aku ai ia ia e like me ka lima o Solomona ke alii; alaila huli ia a hoi aku i kona aina iho, oia me kana mau kauwa.

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 A o ke kaumaha o ke gula i hiki mai ia Solomona i ka makahiki hookahi, aono haneri, me kanaono kumamaono talena gula.

Now the weight of gold which came to Solomon in one year was six hundred and sixty-six talents;

15 Okoa ka mea i loaa ia ia mai ka poe kalepa, a me ka poe kuai mea ala, a me na alii a pau o Arabia, a me na kiaaina o ka aina.

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 A hana iho la o Solomona ke alii i elua haneri paleumauma gula maemae ole, eono haneri sekela gula i lilo i paleumauma hookahi.

And Solomon made two hundred body-covers of hammered gold, every one having six hundred shekels of gold in it.

17 Hana iho la oia i ekolu haneri palekaua gula kuiia; ekolu paona gula i lilo i palekaua hookahi, a waiho ae la ke alii ia lakou maloko o ka hale ma ka ululaau o Lebanona.

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 Hana iho la hoi ke alii i nohoalii niho elepani nui, a hoouhi ae la i ke gula maikai loa.

Then the king made a great ivory seat, plated with the best gold.

19 He mau anuunuu eono ko ka nohoalii, a poepoe ae la ke poo o ka nohoalii ma ke kua, a he mau lima ma kela aoao, ma keia aoao ma kahi e noho ai, elua hoi liona e ku ana ma na lima.

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 He umikumamalua liona i ku malaila ma kela aoao a ma keia aoao maluna o na anuunuu eono; aohe mea like me ia i hanaia ma kekahi aupuni.

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 A o ko ke alii, ko Solomona mau kiaha inu he gula no, a me na ipu o ka hale ma ka ululaau o Lebanona, he gula maemae ia; aole mea kala; ua manaoia ia he mea ole i na la o Solomona.

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 No ka mea, he mau moku no Taresisa ko ke alii ma ke kai, me na moku o Hirama; i na makahiki ekolu, hookahi ka holo ana mai o na moku no Teresisa, e lawe ana mai i ke gula, a me ke kala, a me ka niho elepani, a me na keko, a me na pikoka.

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 A kela aku la o Solomona ke alii i na lii a pau o ka honua i ka waiwai a me ke akamai.

And King Solomon was greater than all the kings of the earth in wealth and in wisdom.

24 A imi aku la ka honua a pau i ke alo o Solomona e hoolohe i kona akamai a ke A kua i hahao ai iloko o kona naau.

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 Halihali mai la lakou kela kanaka keia kanaka i kona makana, na ipu kala, na ipu gula, na kapakomo, na mea kaua, na mea ala, na lio, na hoki, pela i kela makahiki keia makahiki.

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 Hoakoakoa ae la o Solomona i na kaa kaua, a me na hoo hololio: hookahi tausani kaa me na haneri eha kona, a he umikumamalua tausani hoohololio, o na mea ana i hoonoho ai ma na kulanakauhale no na kaa, a me ke alii hoi ma Ierusalema.

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 Hoolilo ae la ke alii i ke kala maloko o Ierusalema me he mau pohaku la, a hoolilo hoi oia i na laau kedera me he mau laau Sukamorea ma ke awawa i ka nui loa.

And the king made silver as common as stones in Jerusalem and cedars like the sycamore-trees of the lowlands in number.

28 A ua kaiia mai na lio no Solomona mai Aigupita mai, a na na huakai kalepa a ke alii i lawe ma ke kumukuai.

And Solomon's horses came from Egypt and from Kue; the king's traders got them at a price from Kue.

29 A ua puka mai la a holo mai ke kaa kaua no na sekela kala eono haneri, a o ka lio no ka haneri me kanalima; a pela no hoi no na lii a pau o ka Heta, a no na lii o Suria, ma ko lakou mau lima i lawe mai ai ia lakou.

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.
