1 Mpanjaka 10

1 Ary ny mpanjakavavin’ i Sheba, rehefa nahare ny lazan’ i Solomona ny amin’ ny anaran’ i Jehovah, dia avy hizaha toetra azy amin’ ny fanontaniana sarotra,

And the queen of Sheba is hearing of the fame of Solomon concerning the Name of YHWH, and comes to try him with enigmas,

2 ka tonga tany Jerosalema izy mbamin’ ny mpanaraka maro be sy ny rameva izay nitondra zava-manitra sy volamena sesehena ary vato soa; ary rehefa tonga tany amin’ i Solomona izy, dia nilaza taminy izay rehetra tao am-pony.

and she comes to Jerusalem, with a very great company, camels carrying spices, and very much gold, and precious stone, and she comes to Solomon, and speaks to him all that has been with her heart.

3 Ary voavalin’ i Solomona izy tamin’ izay rehetra nanontaniany azy; tsy nisy zavatra niafina tamin’ ny mpanjaka, ka dia nambarany azy avokoa.

And Solomon declares to her all her matters—there has not been a thing hid from the king that he has not declared to her.

4 Ary rehefa hitan’ ilay mpanjakavavin’ i Sheba ny fahendren’ i Solomona rehetra sy ny trano izay nataony

And the queen of Sheba sees all the wisdom of Solomon, and the house that he built,

5 sy ny fihinany teo amin’ ny latabany sy ny fipetrahan’ ny tandapany sy ny fitoeran’ ny mpanompony mbamin’ ny fitafian’ ireo sy ny mpitondra kapoakany ary ny ambaratonga izay niakarany ho ao an-tranon’ i Jehovah, dia talanjona terỳ izy.

and the food of his table, and the sitting of his servants, and the standing of his ministers, and their clothing, and his butlers, and his burnt-offering that he causes to ascend in the house of YHWH, and there has not been anymore spirit in her.

6 Ka hoy izy tamin’ ny mpanjaka: Marina ny teny efa reko tany amin’ ny taniko ny amin’ ny teninao sy ny fahendrenao.

And she says to the king, “The word that I heard in my land has been true concerning your matters and your wisdom;

7 kanefa tsy nino ny filazana aho, raha tsy tonga atỳ, ka ny masoko no mahita, kanjo hay! na dia ny antsasany aza tsy voalaza tamiko akory: fa, indro, ny fahendrenao sy ny voninahitrao dia mihoatra lavitra noho izay laza efa reko.

and I gave no credence to the words until I have come, and my eyes see, and behold, not [even] half was declared to me; you have added wisdom and goodness to the report that I heard.

8 Sambatra lahy ny olonao, ary sambatra ireto tandapanao ireto, izay mijanona eto anatrehanao mandrakariva ka mandre ny fahendrenao

O the blessedness of your men, O the blessedness of your servants—these—who are standing before you continually, who are hearing your wisdom!

9 Isaorana anie Jehovah Andriamanitrao, Izay tia anao ka nametraka anao amin’ ny seza fiandrianan’ ny Isiraely; fa noho ny fitiavan’ i Jehovah, izay itiavany ny Isiraely mandrakizay, no nanaovany anao ho mpanjaka mba hanao fitsarana sy fahamarinana.

Your God YHWH is blessed, who delighted in you, to put you on the throne of Israel; in YHWH’s loving Israel for all time He sets you for king, to do judgment and righteousness.”

10 Ary izy nanome talenta volamena roa-polo amby zato sy zava-manitra sesehena ary vato soa ho an’ ny mpanjaka; tsy nisy intsony zava-manitra be indrindra tonga tahaka ilay nomen’ ny mpanjakavavin’ i Sheba ho an’ i Solomona mpanjaka.

And she gives to the king one hundred and twenty talents of gold, and very many spices, and precious stone; there never again came in abundance like that spice that the queen of Sheba gave to King Solomon.

11 Ary ny sambon’ i Hirama koa, izay naka volamena avy any Ofira, dia nitondra hazo almoga be indrindra sy vato soa avy any Ofira.

And also, the navy of Hiram that bore gold from Ophir, brought in very much almug-trees and precious stone from Ophir;

12 Ary ny hazo almoga dia nataon’ ny mpanjaka arofanina tamin’ ny tranon’ i Jehovah sy ny lapan’ andriana ary nataony lokanga sy valiha ho an’ ny mpihira kosa; tsy nisy hazo almoga tonga tany na hita toy izany intsony mandraka androany.

and the king makes the almug-trees a support for the house of YHWH, and for the house of the king, and harps and psalteries for singers; there have not come such almug-trees, nor have there been seen [such] to this day.

13 Ary Solomona mpanjaka nanome ny mpanjakavavin’ i Sheba kosa izay rehetra niriny, na inona na inona nangatahiny, afa-tsy izay nomeny azy araka ny fanomen’ i Solomona mpanjaka; ka dia niverina izy, ary lasa nody tany amin’ ny taniny izy mbamin’ ny mpanompony.

And King Solomon gave to the queen of Sheba all her desire that she asked, apart from that which he gave to her as a memorial of King Solomon, and she turns and goes to her land, she and her servants.

14 Ary ny lanjan’ ny volamena izay tonga tao amin’ i Solomona isan-taona dia talenta volamena enina amby enim-polo amby enin-jato,

And the weight of the gold that has come to Solomon in one year is six hundred sixty-six talents of gold,

15 afa-tsy izay azony tamin’ ny mpandranto sy ny tamin’ ny varotry ny mpivarotra ary tamin’ ny mpanjakan’ ny firenena samy hafa rehetra sy tamin’ ny mpanapaka ny tany.

apart from [that of] the tourists, and of the traffic of the merchants, and of all the kings of Arabia, and of the governors of the land.

16 Ary Solomona mpanjaka nanao ampinga volamena lehibe roan-jato tamin’ ny volamena voafisaka, ka takela-bolamena sekely enin-jato no napetaka tamin’ ny ampinga lehibe iray.

And King Solomon makes two hundred bucklers of alloyed gold—six hundred [shekels] of gold go up on the one buckler;

17 Ary nanao ampinga volamena telonjato koa izy tamin’ ny volamena voafisaka, ka takela-bolamena telo mane no napetaka tamin’ ny ampinga iray. Dia napetraky ny mpanjaka tao amin’ ny trano Alan’ i Libanona ireo.

and three hundred shields of alloyed gold—three pounds of gold go up on the one shield; and the king puts them [in] the House of the Forest of Lebanon.

18 Ary ny mpanjaka dia nanao seza fiandrianana ivory lehibe, ka nopetahany takela-bolamena tsara indrindra.

And the king makes a great throne of ivory, and overlays it with refined gold;

19 Nisy ambaratonga enina tamin’ ny seza fiandrianana; ary ny lohan’ ny seza fiandrianana, dia boribory ny eo an damosiny; ary nisy fitehenan-tanana teo an-daniny roa amin’ ny fipetrahana; ary nisy sarin-diona roa teo an-danin’ ny fitehenan-tanana.

the throne has six steps, and a round top [is] to the throne behind it, and hands [are] on this [side] and on that, to the place of the sitting, and two lions are standing near the hands,

20 Ary nisy sarin-diona roa ambin’ ny folo teo an-daniny roa teo amin’ ny ambaratonga enina. Tsy nisy natao tahaka izany tany amin’ ny fanjakana rehetra.

and twelve lions are standing there on the six steps, on this [side] and on that; it has not been made so for any kingdom.

21 Ary ny fisotroan’ i Solomona mpanjaka dia volamena, ary ny fanaka rehetra tao amin’ ny trano Alan’ i Libanona koa dia volamena tsara avokoa; tsy nisy volafotsy ireo; fa nataony toy ny tsinontsinona izany tamin’ ny andron’ i Solomona.

And all the drinking vessels of King Solomon [are] of gold, and all the vessels of the House of the Forest of Lebanon [are] of refined gold—there are none of silver; it was not reckoned in the days of Solomon for anything,

22 Fa ny mpanjaka nanana sambon’ i Tarsisy mbamin’ ny sambon’ i Hirama teny ambonin’ ny ranomasina; ary indray mandeha amin’ ny telo taona no nihavian’ ny sambon’ i Tarsisy nitondra volamena sy volafotsy sy ivory sy rajako ary vorombola.

for the king has a navy of Tarshish at sea with a navy of Hiram; once in three years the navy of Tarshish comes, carrying gold, and silver, ivory, and apes, and peacocks [[or monkeys]].

23 Ary Solomona mpanjaka dia nanankarena sady hendry noho ny mpanjaka rehetra ambonin’ ny tany.

And King Solomon is greater than any of the kings of the earth for riches and for wisdom,

24 Ary ny tany rehetra nitady hahita ny tavan’ i Solomona mba hihaino ny fahendrena izay nataon’ Andriamanitra tao am-pony.

and all the earth is seeking the presence of Solomon, to hear his wisdom that God has put into his heart,

25 Ary izy rehetra dia samy nahatonga ny anjarany avy isan-taona, dia fanaka volafotsy sy fanaka volamena sy fitafiana sy fiadiana sy zava-manitra sy soavaly ary ampondra.

and they are each bringing his present, vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and garments, and armor, and spices, horses, and mules, the matter of a year in a year.

26 Ary Solomona nanangona kalesy sy mpitaingin-tsoavaly; ary nanana kalesy efajato amby arivo izy sy mpitaingin-tsoavaly roa arivo amby iray alina, izay nataony tao amin’ ireo tanàna fitoeran’ ny kalesy sy tao amin’ ny mpanjaka tany Jerosalema.

And Solomon gathers chariots, and horsemen, and he has one thousand and four hundred chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen, and he places them in the cities of the chariot, and with the king in Jerusalem.

27 Ary nataon’ ny mpanjaka tahaka ny vato ny habetsaky ny volafotsy tany Jerosalema, ary ny hazo sedera nataony toy ny aviavy eny amin’ ny tany lemaka amoron-tsiraka.

And the king makes the silver in Jerusalem as stones, and he has made the cedars as the sycamores that [are] in the low country, for abundance.

28 Ary avy any Egypta no nahazoan’ i Solomona soavaly; ary ny iray toko tamin’ ny mpandranton’ ny mpanjaka dia naka ny andiany iray araka izay vidiny voatendry.

And the outgoing of the horses that King Solomon has [is] from Egypt, and from Keveh; merchants of the king take from Keveh at a price;

29 Ary ny vidin’ ny kalesy iray nentiny niakatra avy tany Egypta dia sekely volafotsy enin-jato, ary ny soavaly dia dimam-polo amby zato avy; ary toy izany kosa no nitondrany ho an’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Hetita sy ny mpanjakan’ ny Syriana.

and a chariot comes up and comes out of Egypt for six hundred pieces of silver, and a horse for one hundred and fifty, and so for all the kings of the Hittites, and for the kings of Aram; they bring out by their hand.
