1 Mpanjaka 10
1 Ie jinanji’ ty mpanjaka-ampela’ i Seba ty enge’ i Selomò ty amy tahina’ Iehovày, le nimb’eo hamente aze an-tafatoño.
And the queen of Saba heard of the name of Solomon, and the name of the Lord, and she came to try him with riddles.
2 Le am-pivavàrañe jabajaba ty nitotsaha’e e Ierosalaime ao, reketse rameva ninday fampafiriañe naho volamena tsifotofoto naho vatosoa; aa ie tsatoke amy Selomò, le fonga nabora’e ama’e ty arofo’e.
And she came to Jerusalem with a very great train; and [there came] camels bearing spices, and very much gold, and precious stones: and she came in to Solomon, and told him all that was in her heart.
3 Aa le vinale’ i Selomò ontane’e iabio; tsy nietak’ amy mpanjakay ty hatoi’e aze.
And Solomon answered all her questions: and there was not a question overlooked by the king which he did not answer her.
4 Ie nioni’ i mpanjaka ampela’ i Sebay ze hene hihi’ i Selomò, naho i anjomba niranjie’ey,
And the queen of Saba saw all the wisdom of Solomon, and the house which he built,
5 naho ty mahakama am-pandambaña’e eo, naho ty fandaharam-piambesa’ o mpitoro’eo naho ty fiatraha’ o mpiatra’eo naho o siki’eo naho o mpitàm-pitovi’eo vaho o soroñe fañenga’e añ’anjomba’ Iehovào, le tsy nahakofòke.
and the provision of Solomon and the sitting of his attendants, and the standing of his servants, and his raiment, and his cupbearers, and his whole burnt offering which he offered in the house of the Lord, and she was utterly amazed.
6 Aa le hoe re amy mpanjakay: Nitò i talily tsinanoko an-tanekoy ty amo taro’oo naho o hihi’oo.
And she said to king Solomon, [It was] a true report which I heard in my land of your words and your wisdom.
7 Fe tsy niantofako o saontsio ampara te nivotrak’ atoy naho nitrea’ o masokoo, le hehe te tsy ty vaki’e o natalily ahio; loho mandikoatse i talily tsinanokoy ty hilala’o naho ty firaoraoa’o.
But I believed not them that told me, until I came and my eyes saw: and, behold, the words as they reported to me are not the half: you have exceeded in goodness all the report which I heard in my land.
8 Haha ondati’oo naho fale o mpitoro’o mijohañe nainai’e añatrefa’o mahajanjiñe o hihi’oo.
Blessed [are] your wives, blessed [are] these your servants who stand before you continually, who hear all your wisdom.
9 Andriañeñe t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’o te nahafale Aze ty nampipoke azo am-piambesa’ Israele eo amy te nikokoa’ Iehovà nainai’e donia t’Israele, ihe nanoe’e mpanjaka, hitoloña’o an-katò vaho an-kavantañañe.
Blessed be the Lord your God, who has taken pleasure in you, to set you upon the throne of Israel, because the Lord loved Israel to establish [him] for ever; and he has made you king over them, to execute judgment with justice, and in their causes.
10 Le natolo’e amy mpanjakay ty volamena talenta zato-tsi-roapolo; naho fampafiriañe tsi-fotofoto vaho vatosoa; le lia’e tsy eo ka ty hamarom-pampafiriañe nitotsak’ ao te amy natolo’ i mpanjaka’ i Sebaiy amy Selomò mpanjakay.
And she gave to Solomon a hundred and twenty talents of gold, and very many spices, and precious stones: there had not come any other spices so abundant as those which the queen of Saba gave to king Solomon.
11 Le ninday volamena boake Ofire naho nilogologo hatae almoge maro boake Ofire añe, vaho vatosoa, o firimbon-tsambo’ i Kirameo.
And the ship of Chiram which brought the gold from Suphir, brought very much hewn timber and precious stones.
12 Niranjie’ i mpanjakay amy hatae almogey, o fahañe añ’anjomba’ Iehovà naho añ’anjomba’ i mpanjakaio vaho o marovany miharo ty fititiha’ o sakeraoo, le lia’e tsy nioniñe ampara’ te henane ty hatae almoge hoe izay.
And the king made the hewn timber [into] buttresses of the house of the Lord and the king's house, and lyres and harps for singers: such hewn timber had not come upon the earth, nor have been seen anywhere until this day.
13 Hene natolo’ i Selomò mpanjaka amy mpanjaka-ampela’ i Sebay ze nitea’e, ze nihalalia’e, mandikoatse ty natolo’e aze ty amo varam-panjaka’eo. Aa le nitolike re, nimpoly mb’ an-tane’e añe, ie naho o mpitoro’eo.
And king Solomon gave to the queen of Saba all that she desired, whatever she asked, besides all that he had given her by the hand of king Solomon: and she returned, and came into her own land, she and her servants.
14 Ie amy zao, ty volamena niheo mb’ amy Selomò ami’ty taoñe raike le nahatratse talenta volamena enen-jato-tsi-enem-polo-eneñ’amby,
And the weight of gold that came to Solomon in one year was six hundred and sixty-six talents of gold.
15 mandikoatse ze nendese’ o mpivarotseo, naho o mpanao balikeo, naho boak’ amy ze hene mpanjaka’ o nte-Araboo, naho amo mpifeleke i taneio.
Besides the tributes of them that were subjects, both merchants and all the kings of the [country] beyond [the river], and of the princess of the land.
16 Le nitsene’ i Selomò mpanjaka fikalan-defoñe volamena roanjato pinepèke; sekele enen-jato ty fikalan-defoñe raike.
And Solomon made three hundred spears of beaten gold: three hundred shekels of gold were upon one spear.
17 Le nitsene’e fikalan-defoñe volamena-pinepèke telon-jato; mina telo ty volamena ami’ty fikalan-defoñe ao; vaho napo’ i mpanjakay añ’ anjomba’ i Ala-Lebanoney irezay.
And three hundred shields of beaten gold: and three pounds of gold were in one shield: and the king put them in the house of the forest of Lebanon.
18 Nandranjy fiambesatse jabajaba an-tsifam-biby ka i mpanjakay vaho pinepè’e ama’e ty volamena ki’e.
And the king made a great ivory throne, and gilded it with pure gold.
19 Fanongà enen-dia ty nitroatse mb’amy fiambesatsey, le bontoly ty ambone an-dambosi’ i fiambesatsey; naho fisampezam-pitàñe ty añ’ ila’ i fiambesatsey, vaho liona roe ty mijadoñe añ’ ila’ o fisampezam-pitàñeo.
The throne [had] six steps, and calves in bold relief to the throne behind it, and side-pieces on either hand of the place of the seat, and two lions standing by the side-pieces,
20 Liona folo-ro’ amby ty nijohañe amy fanongañe enen-diay, añ’ila’e atoy naho añila’e aroy; vaho tsy eo ty nanoeñe nanahak’ aze ndra am-pifeheañe aia.
and twelve lions standing there on the six steps on either side: it was not so done in any [other] kingdom.
21 Songa tam-bolamena o fitovi’ i Selomòo vaho hene volamena ki’e o fanak’ amy anjomban’ Ala-Lebanoneio, leo raike tsy nivolafoty, ie tsy natao vara tañ’ andro’ i Selomò.
And all the vessels made by Solomon [were] of gold, and the lavers [were] golden, and all the vessels of the house of the forest of Lebanon were of pure gold; there was no silver, for it was not accounted of in the days of Solomon.
22 Nanañe firimboñan-tsambon-Tarsise reketse ty firimboñan-tsambo’ i Kirame i mpanjakay; nivotrake eo o sambo’ i Tarsiseo isa’ ty telo taoñe, ninday volamena, volafoty, tsifa naho babakoto vaho remàleñe.
For Solomon had a ship of Tharsis in the sea with the ships of Chiram: one ship came to the king every three years out of Tharsis, [laden with] gold and silver, and wrought stones, and hewn stones.
23 Aa le nilikoare’ i Selomò mpanjaka o mpanjaka’ ty tane toy iabio ami’ty vara naho hihitse.
And Solomon increased beyond all the kings of the earth in wealth and wisdom.
24 Le hene nipay ty hiatrek’ amy Selomò ty tane toy, ty hijanjiñe ty hilala napon’ Añahare añ’arofo’e ao.
And all the kings of the earth sought the presence of Solomon, to hear his wisdom which the Lord [had] put into his heart.
25 Songa ninday ty ravoravo’e boa-taoñe ondatio, fanake volafoty naho fanake volamena naho sikiñe, naho fialiañe naho fampifiriañe, naho soavala vaho borìke.
And they brought every one their gifts, vessels of gold, and raiment, and stacte, and spices, and horses, and mules, a rate year by year.
26 Namory sarete t’i Selomò naho mpiningi-tsoavala, arivo-tsi-efa-jato ty sarete’e naho mpiningi-tsoavala rai-ale-tsi-ro’arivo ze napo’e amo rovan-tsareteo vaho amy mpanjakay e Ierosalaime ao.
And Solomon had four thousand mares for his chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen: and he put them in the cities of his chariots, and with the king in Jerusalem: and he ruled over all the kings from the river to the land of the Philistines, and to the borders of Egypt.
27 Le nanoe’ i mpanjakay hoe vato ty volafoty e Ierosalaime ao vaho nanoe’e hoe sakoañe am-bavatane ao o mendoraveñeo ty amo hamaro’eo.
And the king made gold and silver in Jerusalem as stones, and he made cedars as the sycamores in the plain for multitude.
28 Nendeseñe boake Mitsraime naho e Kevè añe o soavala’ i Selomòo; nangalak’ amy Kevè ami’ty vili’e o mpanao balibali’ i mpanjakaio.
And the goings forth of Solomon's horsemen [was] also out of Egypt, and the king's merchants [were] of Thecue; and they received them out of Thecue at a price.
29 Le enen-jato sekelem-bolafoty ty nampiakarañe sarete boake Mitsraime añe, le zato-tsi-limampolo ty soavala; vaho am-pità’ iareoo ty nahazoa’ ze hene mpanjaka’ o nte-Kiteo naho o mpanjaka’ i Arameo.
And that which proceeded out of Egypt went up [thus, even] a chariot for a hundred [shekels] of silver, and a horse for fifty [shekels] of silver: and thus for all the kings of the Chettians, and the kings of Syria, they came out by sea.
