Barley also and straw for the horses and dromedaries brought they unto the place where [the officers] were, every man according to his charge.
29 Chineke nyere Solomọn amamihe, na uche nghọta, na mmụọ ịmụta ọtụtụ ihe nke bara ụba dịka aja dị nʼakụkụ osimiri.
And God gave Solomon wisdom and understanding exceeding much, and largeness of heart, even as the sand that [is] on the sea shore.

32 Ọ tụrụ puku ilu atọ, deekwa abụ ọnụọgụgụ ha dị otu puku na ise.
And he spake three thousand proverbs: and his songs were a thousand and five.

And he spake of trees, from the cedar tree that [is] in Lebanon even unto the hyssop that springeth out of the wall: he spake also of beasts, and of fowl, and of creeping things, and of fishes.
34 Ndị eze niile dị nʼụwa bụ ndị bịara ịnụrụ banyere amamihe ya zitere ndị si na mba niile dị iche iche ịnụrụ okwu amamihe Solomọn.
And there came of all people to hear the wisdom of Solomon, from all kings of the earth, which had heard of his wisdom.
