2 Ihe E Mere 9
1 Mgbe eze nwanyị Sheba nụrụ akụkọ Solomọn, ọ bịara Jerusalem ka o were ọtụtụ ajụjụ siri ike nwalee ya. O du ọtụtụ ndị ozi bara ụba bịa, tinyere ọtụtụ ịnyịnya kamel ndị bu ụda dị iche iche, ọtụtụ ọlaedo na ọtụtụ nkume dị oke ọnụahịa dị iche iche. Ọ bịakwutere Solomọn, ya na ya kparịtara ụka banyere ihe niile nke dị ya nʼobi.
And when the Queene of Sheba heard of the fame of Salomon, she came to proue Salomon with hard questions at Ierusalem, with a very great traine, and camels that bare sweete odours and much golde, and precious stones: and when she came to Salomon, she communed with him of all that was in her heart.
2 Solomọn zara ya ajụjụ ya niile. Ọ dịkwaghị ihe siiri ya ike ịkọwara ya.
And Salomon declared her all her questions, and there was nothing hid from Salomon, which he declared not vnto her.
3 Mgbe eze nwanyị Sheba hụrụ amamihe Solomọn, ma hụkwa ụlọeze o wuru,
Then the Queene of Sheba sawe the wisedome of Salomon, and the house that he had buylt,
4 na ihe oriri a na-adọkwasị nʼelu tebul ya, usoro ọnọdụ nke ndịisi ọchịchị ya, na ndị guzo na-ejere ya ozi nʼuwe ha yi, ndị na-ebu iko ihe ọṅụṅụ nʼuwe ha, na aja nsure ọkụ niile ọ na-achụ nʼụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị. Ọ dịkwaghị ihe ọzọ ọ maara ọ ga-eme, maọbụ kwuo.
And the meate of his table, and the sitting of his seruants, and the order of his wayters, and their apparel, and his butlers, and their apparel, and his burnt offrings which he offred in the house of the Lord, and she was greatly astonied.
5 Ọ sịrị eze, “Akụkọ niile m nọ nʼala nụ banyere ihe niile ị rụpụtara na amamihe gị bụ eziokwu.
And she saide to the King, It was a true worde which I heard in mine owne lande of thy sayings, and of thy wisedome:
6 Ma ekwenyeghị m ihe ha kwuru tutu ruo mgbe m bịara jiri anya m abụọ hụ ha. Nʼezie, ihe m nụrụ erughị ọkara nke ịdị ukwuu amamihe gị. Ị tụkwasịla ihe nʼakụkọ m nụrụ.
Howbeit I beleeued not their report, vntil I came, and mine eyes had seene it: and beholde, the one halfe of thy great wisedom was not told me: for thou exceedest the fame that I heard.
7 Lee, ụdị ọṅụ ndị gị na-enwe. Lee, ụdị ọṅụ nke ndị ozi na-enwe, bụ ndị na-eguzo nʼihu gị mgbe niile na-anụ okwu amamihe gị.
Happie are thy men, and happie are these thy seruants, which stande before thee alway, and heare thy wisedome.
8 Ngọzị dịrị Onyenwe anyị Chineke gị, onye nwere mmasị nʼebe ị nọ. O debere gị nʼocheeze ya dịka eze ịchị nʼaha Onyenwe anyị bụ Chineke gị. Nʼihi ịhụnanya nke Chineke gị nwere nʼebe Izrel nọ, na mmasị ya ime ka ha guzosie ike ruo mgbe ebighị ebi. O meela gị eze ha, ka ị debe ikpe ziri ezi na ezi omume.”
Blessed be the Lord thy God, which loued thee, to set thee on his throne as King, in the steade of the Lord thy God: because thy God loueth Israel, to establish it for euer, therefore hath he made thee King ouer them, to execute iudgement and iustice.
9 Emesịa, O nyere Solomọn onyinye ọlaedo ịdị arọ ya dị puku kilogram anọ, nyekwa ya ụda dị iche iche, na nkume oke ọnụahịa dị iche iche. Enwebeghị ụdị ụda dịka ndị ahụ eze nwanyị Sheba nyere eze Solomọn.
Then she gaue the King sixe score talents of golde, and of sweete odours exceeding much and precious stones: neither was there such sweete odours since, as the Queene of Sheba gaue vnto King Salomon.
10 Ndị ohu Hiram na ndị ohu Solomọn bubatara ọlaedo site nʼỌfịa. Ha butekwara osisi algụm, na nkume dị oke ọnụahịa dị iche iche.
And the seruants also of Huram, and the seruants of Salomon which brought golde from Ophir, brought Algummim wood and precious stones.
11 Eze ji osisi algụm ndị ahụ mee nkwasa nrigo nʼụlọnsọ Onyenwe anyị, na nke ụlọeze. O jikwa ya meere ndị na-abụ abụ ụbọ akwara na une. O nwebeghị oge ọzọ e nwere ụdị ngwa egwu e ji osisi ọma dị otu a kwaa nʼala Juda niile.
And the King made of the Algummim wood staires in the house of the Lord, and in the Kings house, and harpes and violes for singers: and there was no such seene before in the lande of Iudah.
12 Eze Solomọn nyekwara eze nwanyị Sheba ihe niile ọ chọrọ na ihe niile bụ nke ọ rịọrọ. O nyere ya karịa ihe niile o wetaara ya. Emesịa, ọ hapụrụ laghachi nʼala nke aka ya, ya na ndị na-ejere ya ozi.
And King Salomon gaue to the Queene of Sheba euery pleasant thing that she asked, besides for that which she had brought vnto the King: so she returned and went to her owne countrey, both she, and her seruants.
13 Ọtụtụ ịdị arọ nke ọlaedo Solomọn na-enweta kwa afọ bụ puku kilogram iri abụọ na atọ,
Also the weight of golde that came to Salomon in one yeere, was sixe hundreth three score and sixe talents of golde,
14 na-agụnyeghị uru nke na-esi nʼaka ndị na-atụ mgbereahịa na ndị na-azụ ahịa. Ọzọkwa, ndị eze niile nke dị Arebịa na ndịisi na-achị obodo niile nke ala ahụ, na-enwetara Solomọn ọlaọcha na ọlaedo.
Besides that which chapmen and marchants brought: and all the Kings of Arabia, and the princes of the countrey brought golde and siluer to Salomon.
15 Eze Solomọn kpụrụ narị ọta ọlaedo ukwu abụọ site nʼọlaedo etipịara etipịa. Ọ bụ ọlaedo ịdị arọ ya ruru kilogram isii ka e ji kpụọ ọta ọbụla.
And King Salomon made two hundreth targets of beaten golde, and sixe hundreth shekels of beaten golde went to one target,
16 Ọ kpụkwara narị ọta nta atọ, nke sitere na ọlaedo etipịara etipịa. Ọ bụ ọlaedo ịdị arọ ya ruru kilogram atọ na ọkara ka eji kpụọ ọta ọbụla. Eze debere ha nʼụlọeze nʼOke Ọhịa Lebanọn.
And three hundreth shieldes of beaten golde: three hundreth shekels of golde went to one shielde, and the King put them in the house of the wood of Lebanon.
17 Eze mekwara ocheeze dị ukwu nke e ji ọdụ enyi na ọlaedo a nụchara anụcha machie
And the King made a great throne of yuorie and ouerlaid it with pure golde.
18 Ocheeze ahụ nwere ihe nrigo isii na ihe ịtụkwasị ụkwụ eji ọlaọcha rụọ nke ejikọtara nʼahụ ya. E nwere ebe ntụkwasị aka nʼakụkụ abụọ ya, nke nwere oyiyi ọdụm abụọ guzo nʼakụkụ nke ọbụla nʼime ha.
And the throne had sixe steppes, with a footestoole of gold fastened to the throne, and stayes on either side on the place of the seate, and two lyons standing by the stayes.
19 Ọdụm iri na abụọ na-eguzo nʼelu ihe nrigo isii ahụ, otu nʼakụkụ isi abụọ nke ihe nrigo ọbụla. Ọ dịkwaghị alaeze ọzọ dị nke e mere ihe dị otu a nye.
And twelue lyons stoode there on the sixe steps on either side: there was not the like made in any kingdome.
20 Ihe niile Solomọn nwere nke e ji aṅụ ihe bụ ọlaedo ka e ji mee ha. Ngwongwo niile nke dị nʼime ụlọeze nʼOke Ọhịa Lebanọn bụkwa ọlaedo a nụchara anụcha ka e ji kpụọ ha. Ọ dịghị ihe e ji ọlaọcha kpụọ, nʼihi na-agụnyeghị ọlaọcha dịka ihe ọbụla nʼoge Solomọn.
And all King Salomons drinking vessels were of golde, and all the vessels of the house of the wood of Lebanon were of pure gold: for siluer was nothing esteemed in ye dayes of Salomon.
21 Eze nwere ọtụtụ ụgbọ mmiri e ji azụ ahịa nke ndị ohu Hiram na-elekọta. Otu ugbo nʼafọ atọ, ka ụgbọ ndị a na-alọta buru ọlaedo, ọlaọcha na ọdụ enyi, enwe na adaka dị iche iche bata.
For the Kings ships went to Tarshish with the seruants of Huram, euery three yeere once came the ships of Tarshish, and brought golde, and siluer, yuorie, and apes, and peacockes.
22 Eze Solomọn bara ụba nʼakụ, nweekwa amamihe karịa ndị eze niile dị nʼụwa.
So King Salomon excelled all the Kings of the earth in riches and wisedome.
23 Ndị eze niile nke ụwa na-achọ ihu Solomọn, ka ha nụta okwu amamihe nke Chineke tinyere nʼobi ya.
And all the Kings of the earth sought the presence of Salomon, to heare his wisedome that God had put in his heart.
24 Onye ọbụla bịakwutere ya na-ebutere ya onyinye ịnata ihuọma, ya bụ ngwa ọlaọcha na ọlaedo, na uwe dị iche iche, ngwa agha, ụda dị iche iche, ịnyịnya na ịnyịnya muul, nke a bụ kwa afọ, kwa afọ.
And they brought euery man his present, vessels of siluer, and vessels of golde, and raiment, armour, and sweet odours, horses, and mules, from yeere to yeere.
25 Solomọn nwere ụlọ anụmanụ dị puku anọ maka ịnyịnya na ụgbọ agha, nwekwa puku ịnyịnya iri na abụọ ndị o dobere nʼobodo ụgbọ agha dị iche iche, na nʼebe eze nọ na Jerusalem.
And Salomon had foure thousand stalles of horses, and charets, and twelue thousand horsmen, whom he bestowed in the charet cities, and with the King at Ierusalem.
26 Ọ chịrị ndị eze niile site nʼosimiri Yufretis ruo nʼala ndị Filistia, rukwaa oke ala ndị Ijipt.
And he reigned ouer all the Kings from the Riuer euen vnto the land of the Philistims, and to the border of Egypt.
27 Eze mere ka ọlaọcha baa ụba na Jerusalem, dịka nkume efu. O mekwara ka osisi sida dịka osisi sikamọ nke dị nʼala ala ugwu dị iche iche.
And the King gaue siluer in Ierusalem, as stones, and gaue cedar trees as the wilde fig trees, that are aboundant in the plaine.
28 A na-esite nʼIjipt na nʼala ndị ọzọ dị iche iche atụbatara Solomọn ịnyịnya.
And they brought vnto Salomon horses out of Egypt, and out of all landes.
29 Ma banyere Ihe ndị ọzọ mere nʼoge ọchịchị Solomọn, site na mmalite ruo nʼọgwụgwụ, ọ bụ na-edeghị ha nʼakwụkwọ Netan onye amụma, nʼime akwụkwọ amụma Ahija, onye Shilo, nakwa nʼọhụ Ido onye ọhụ ụzọ, banyere Jeroboam nwa Nebat?
Concerning the rest of the actes of Salomon first and last, are they not written in the booke of Nathan the Prophet, and in the prophecie of Ahiiah the Shilonite, and in the visions of Ieedo the Seer against Ieroboam the sonne of Nebat?
30 Solomọn chịrị Izrel niile iri afọ anọ na Jerusalem.
And Salomon reigned in Ierusalem ouer all Israel fourtie yeeres.
31 O sooro nna nna ya ha dina nʼọnwụ. E lie ya nʼobodo Devid bụ nna ya. Rehoboam nwa ya ghọkwara eze nʼọnọdụ ya.
And Salomon slept with his fathers, and they buryed him in the citie of Dauid his father: and Rehoboam his sonne reigned in his steade.
