1 Mpanjaka 4
1 Ary nanjaka tamin’ ny Isiraely rehetra Solomona mpanjaka.
King Solomon was king over all Israel.
2 Ary izao no lehibe tao aminy: Azaria, zanak’ i Zadoka, no mpisorona;
These were the officials whom he had: Azariah the son of Zadok, the priest;
3 Elihorefa sy Ahia, zanak’ i Sisa, no mpanoratra; Josafata zanak’ i Ahiloda, no mpitadidy ny raharaha-mpanjakana;
Elihoreph and Ahijah, the sons of Shisha, scribes; Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud, the recorder;
4 ary Benaia, zanak’ i Joiada, no komandin’ ny miaramila; ary Zadoka sy Abiatara no mpisorona;
and Benaiah the son of Jehoiada was over the army; and Zadok and Abiathar were priests;
5 ary Azaria, zanak’ i Natana, no lehiben’ ny olona voatendry; ary Zaboda, zanak’ i Natana, no mpanolotsaina, sakaizan’ ny mpanjaka,
and Azariah the son of Nathan was over the officers; and Zabud the son of Nathan was chief minister, the king's friend;
6 ary Ahisara no lehiben’ ny tao an-dapa; ary Adonirama, zanak’ i Abda, no komandin’ ny mpanao fanompoana.
and Ahishar was over the palace; and Eliab son of Joab was over the army; and Adoniram the son of Abda was over the men subject to forced labor.
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.
Solomon had twelve officers over all Israel, who provided food for the king and his household: each man had to make provision for a month in the year.
8 Ary izao no anarany: Beni-hora tany amin’ ny tany havoan’ i Efraima;
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 Deker, in Makaz, and in Shaalbim, and Beth Shemesh, and Elon Beth Hanan;
10 Beni-haseda tao Arobota; Soko sy ny tany Hefera rehetra no azy;
Ben Hesed, in Arubboth (to him belonged Socoh, and all the land of Hepher);
11 Ben’ abinadaba tao amin’ ny havoan’ i Dora rehetra (Tafata, zanakavavin’ i Solomona, no vadiny);
Ben Abinadab, in all the height of Dor (he had Taphath the daughter of Solomon as 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 the son of Ahilud, in Taanach and Megiddo, and all Beth Shean which is beside Zarethan, beneath Jezreel, from Beth Shean to Abel Meholah, as far as beyond Jokmeam;
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 (to him belonged the towns of Jair the son of Manasseh, which are in Gilead; to him belonged the region of Argob, which is in Bashan, sixty great cities with walls and bronze bars);
14 Ahinadaba, zanak’ Ido, tany Mahanaima;
Ahinadab the son of Iddo, in Mahanaim;
15 Ahimaza tany Naftaly; izy kosa nanambady an’ i Basemata, zanakavavin’ i Solomona;
Ahimaaz, in Naphtali (he also took Basemath the daughter of Solomon as wife);
16 Bana, zanak’ i Hosay, tany Asera sy Alota;

18 Simey, zanak’ i Ela, tany Benjamina;
Shimei the son of Ela, 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 the son of Uri, in the land of Gilead, the country of Sihon king of the Amorites and of Og king of Bashan; and he was the only prefect in the land of Judah.
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 were many as the sand which is by the sea in multitude, eating and drinking and making merry.
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 ruled over all the kingdoms, from the River, and to the land of the Philistines, and to the border of Egypt. They brought tribute and served 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,
Solomon's provision for one day was thirty measures of fine flour, and sixty measures 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 head of fat cattle, and twenty head of cattle out of the pastures, and one hundred sheep, besides deer, and gazelles, and roebucks, and fattened fowl.
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 had dominion over all on this side the River, from Tiphsah even to Gaza, over all the kings on this side the River: and he had peace on all sides around him.
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.
Judah and Israel lived safely, every man under his vine and under his fig tree, from Dan even to Beersheba, 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 had four 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.
Those officers provided food for king Solomon, and for all who came to king Solomon's table, every man 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 they also brought barley and straw for the horses and the steeds to the place where the officers were, every man according to his duty.
29 Ary Andriamanitra nanome an’ i Solomona fahendrena sy fahiratan-tsaina be indrindra ary fahalalana betsaka tahaka ny fasika amoron-dranomasina.
God gave Solomon wisdom and exceptional insight, and very great understanding, even as the sand that is on the seashore.
30 Ary ny fahendren’ i Solomona nihoatra noho ny fahendren’ ny zanaky ny atsinanana rehetra sy ny fahendren’ ny Egyptiana rehetra.
Solomon's wisdom excelled the wisdom of all the people of the east, and 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.
For he was wiser than all men; than Ethan the Ezrahite, and Heman, and Calcol, and Darda, the sons of Mahol: and his fame was in all the nations all around.
32 Nanao ohabolana telo arivo izy, sady nanao tonon-kira dimy amby arivo.
He spoke three thousand proverbs; and his songs were one thousand 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.
He spoke of trees, from the cedar that is in Lebanon even to the hyssop that springs out of the wall; he spoke also of animals, and of birds, and of crawling creatures, and of fish.
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.
There came of all peoples to hear the wisdom of Solomon, from all kings of the earth, who had heard of his wisdom.
