1 Mpanjaka 4

1 Ary nanjaka tamin’ ny Isiraely rehetra Solomona mpanjaka.

And King Solomon is king over all Israel,

2 Ary izao no lehibe tao aminy: Azaria, zanak’ i Zadoka, no mpisorona;

and these [are] the heads whom he has: Azariah son of Zadok [is] the priest;

3 Elihorefa sy Ahia, zanak’ i Sisa, no mpanoratra; Josafata zanak’ i Ahiloda, no mpitadidy ny raharaha-mpanjakana;

Elihoreph and Ahiah sons of Shisha [are] scribes; Jehoshaphat son of Ahilud [is] remembrancer;

4 ary Benaia, zanak’ i Joiada, no komandin’ ny miaramila; ary Zadoka sy Abiatara no mpisorona;

and Benaiah son of Jehoiada [is] over the host; and Zadok and Abiathar [are] priests;

5 ary Azaria, zanak’ i Natana, no lehiben’ ny olona voatendry; ary Zaboda, zanak’ i Natana, no mpanolotsaina, sakaizan’ ny mpanjaka,

and Azariah son of Nathan [is] over the officers; and Zabud son of Nathan [is] minister, friend of the king;

6 ary Ahisara no lehiben’ ny tao an-dapa; ary Adonirama, zanak’ i Abda, no komandin’ ny mpanao fanompoana.

and Ahishar [is] over the household, and Adoniram son of Abda [is] over the tribute.

7 Ary Solomona nanendry roa ambin’ ny folo lahy ho amin’ ny Isiraely rehetra hiadidy ny zavatra rehetra nilain’ ny mpanjaka sy ny ankohonany; samy niadidy ny iray volana avy amin’ ny herintaona izy.

And Solomon has twelve officers over all Israel, and they have sustained the king and his household—a month in the year is on each one for sustenance;

8 Ary izao no anarany: Beni-hora tany amin’ ny tany havoan’ i Efraima;

and these [are] their names: Ben-Hur in the hill-country of Ephraim;

9 Beni-dakera tao Makaza sy tao Salbima sy Beti-semesy ary Elon-beti-hanana;

Ben-Dekar in Makaz, and Shaalbim, and Beth-Shemesh, and Elon-Beth-Hanan;

10 Beni-haseda tao Arobota; Soko sy ny tany Hefera rehetra no azy;

Ben-Hesed, in Aruboth, has Sochoh and all the land of Hepher;

11 Ben’ abinadaba tao amin’ ny havoan’ i Dora rehetra (Tafata, zanakavavin’ i Solomona, no vadiny);

Ben-Abinadab [has] all the elevation of Dor; Taphath daughter of Solomon became his wife;

12 Bana, zanak’ i Ahiloda; azy Tanaka sy Megido ary Beti-sana rehetra, izay anilan’ i Zaretana, ambanin’ i Jezirela, hatrany Beti-sana ka hatrany Abela-mehola, dia hatrany ankoatr’ i Jokneama no azy.

Baana Ben-Ahilud [has] Taanach and Megiddo, and all Beth-Shean, which [is] by Zartanah beneath Jezreel, from Beth-Shean to Abel-Meholah, to beyond Jokneam;

13 Beni-gabera tao Ramota-gileada; ny tanàna madinika an’ i Jaïra, zanak’ i Manase, izay any Gileada, no azy; azy koa ny tany Argoba, izay any Basana, dia tanana enim-polo lehibe nisy manda sy hidy varahina;

Ben-Geber, in Ramoth-Gilead, has the small towns of Jair son of Manasseh, which [are] in Gilead; he has a portion of Argob that [is] in Bashan—sixty great cities [with] wall and bronze bar;

14 Ahinadaba, zanak’ Ido, tany Mahanaima;

Ahinadab son of Iddo [has] Mahanaim;

15 Ahimaza tany Naftaly; izy kosa nanambady an’ i Basemata, zanakavavin’ i Solomona;

Ahimaaz [is] in Naphtali; he also has taken Basemath daughter of Solomon for a wife;

16 Bana, zanak’ i Hosay, tany Asera sy Alota;

Baanah Ben-Hushai [is] in Asher, and in Aloth;

17 Josafata, zanak’ i Paroa, tany Isakara;

Jehoshaphat Ben-Paruah [is] in Issachar;

18 Simey, zanak’ i Ela, tany Benjamina;

Shimei Ben-Elah [is] in Benjamin;

19 Gabera, zanak’ i Ory, tany amin’ ny tany Gileada, tanin’ i Sihona, mpanjakan’ ny Amorita, sy Oga, mpanjakan’ i Basana; ary izy ihany no voatendry ho amin’ izany tany izany.

Geber Ben-Uri [is] in the land of Gilead, the land of Sihon king of the Amorite, and of Og king of Bashan: and [he is] the one officer who [is] in the land.

20 Ary ny Joda sy ny Isiraely dia maro, tahaka ny fasika amoron-dranomasina ny hamarony, sady mihinana sy misotro ary mifaly.

Judah and Israel [are] many, as the sand that [is] by the sea for multitude, eating and drinking and rejoicing.

21 Ary Solomona nanjaka tamin’ ny fanjakana rehetra hatramin’ ny Ony sy ny tanin’ ny Filistina ka hatramin’ ny sisin’ i Egypta; nandoa hetra ireo sady nanompo an’ i Solomona tamin’ ny andro rehetra niainany.

And Solomon has been ruling over all the kingdoms, from the River [to] the land of the Philistines and to the border of Egypt: they are bringing a present near, and serving Solomon, all [the] days of his life.

22 Ary ny fihinan’ i Solomona isanandro dia koba tsara toto telo-polo kora sy koba hafa enim-polo kora,

And the provision of Solomon for one day is thirty cors of flour, and sixty cors of meal,

23 sy omby mifahy folo sy omby an-tondraka roa-polo ary ondry aman’ osy zato, afa-tsy ny diera koa sy ny gazela sy ny kapreola ary ny vorona mifahy.

ten fat oxen, and twenty feeding oxen, and one hundred sheep, apart from deer, and roe, and fallow-deer, and fatted beasts of the stalls,

24 Fa nanapaka ny tany rehetra atỳ an-dafin’ ny Ony hatrany Tifsa ka hatrany Gaza izy, dia tamin’ ny mpanjaka rehetra etỳ an-dafin’ ny Ony; ary izy dia tsara fihavanana tamin’ ireny rehetra manodidina nanoa azy ireny.

for he is ruling over all beyond the river, from Tiphsah and to Gaza, over all the kings beyond the River, and he has peace from all his surrounding servants.

25 Ary ny Joda sy ny Isiraely nandry fahizay tamin’ ny andron’ i Solomona rehetra, samy teny ambanin’ ny voalobony sy ny aviaviny ny olona hatrany Dana ka hatrany Beri-sheba.

And Judah dwells—and Israel—in confidence, each under his vine, and under his fig tree, from Dan even to Beer-Sheba, all the days of Solomon.

26 Ary Solomona nanana efi-trano efatra alina, fitoeran’ ny soavaly mpitarika kalesy, ary soavaly fitaingina roa arivo amby iray alina.

And Solomon has forty thousand stalls of horses for his chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen.

27 Ary ireo olona voatendry ireo dia niadidy ny zavatra rehetra nilain’ i Solomona mpanjaka sy izay rehetra nentina teo amin’ ny: latabatr’ i Solomona mpanjaka; izy rehetra samy niadidy ny amin’ ny iray volany avy, ka tsy navelany ho nisy tsy ampy na inona na inona.

And these officers have sustained King Solomon and everyone drawing near to the table of King Solomon, each [in] his month; they let nothing be lacking.

28 Ny vary hordea koa sy ny mololo ho an’ ny soavaly sy ny soavaly haingampandeha dia nentiny ho ao amin’ ny fitoerana izay tokony hitondrana azy, dia samy araka ny anjarany avy.

And the barley and the straw, for horses and for dromedaries, they bring to the place where they are, each according to his ordinance.

29 Ary Andriamanitra nanome an’ i Solomona fahendrena sy fahiratan-tsaina be indrindra ary fahalalana betsaka tahaka ny fasika amoron-dranomasina.

And God gives very much wisdom and understanding to Solomon, and breadth of heart, as the sand that [is] on the edge of the sea;

30 Ary ny fahendren’ i Solomona nihoatra noho ny fahendren’ ny zanaky ny atsinanana rehetra sy ny fahendren’ ny Egyptiana rehetra.

and the wisdom of Solomon is greater than the wisdom of any of the sons of the east, and [greater] than all the wisdom of Egypt;

31 Fa hendry noho ny olona rehetra izy; eny, hendry mihoatra noho Etana Ezrahita sy Hemana sy Kalkola sy Darda, zanak’ i Mahola, aza izy ary ny lazany efa niely tamin’ ny firenena rehetra manodidina.

and he is wiser than all men, [wiser] than Ethan the Ezrahite, and Heman, and Chalcol, and Darda, sons of Mahol, and his name is in all the surrounding nations.

32 Nanao ohabolana telo arivo izy, sady nanao tonon-kira dimy amby arivo.

And he speaks three thousand allegories, and his songs [are] one thousand and five;

33 Ary nilaza ny amin’ ny hazo hatramin’ ny hazo sedera any Libanona ka hatramin’ ny hysopa izay maniry eny amin’ ny ampiantany izy, sady nilaza ny amin’ ny biby sy ny vorona sy ny biby mandady sy mikisaka ary ny hazandrano koa.

and he speaks concerning the trees, from the cedar that [is] in Lebanon, even to the hyssop that is coming out in the wall, and he speaks concerning the livestock, and concerning the bird, and concerning the creeping things, and concerning the fishes,

34 Ary dia nisy tonga avy tany amin’ ny firenena rehetra mba hihaino ny fahendren’ i Solomona, dia avy amin’ ny mpanjakan’ ny tany rehetra izay efa nahare ny amin’ ny fahendreny.

and there come out [those] of all the peoples to hear the wisdom of Solomon, from all kings of the earth who have heard of his wisdom.
