7 सारा इस्राएलमा सोलोमनका बाह्र जना जिल्ला-जिल्लाका जिल्लापाल थिए जसले राजा तथा राज घरानालाई भोजन जुटाउने काम गर्थे । हरेक मानिसले वर्षमा एक-एक महिनाको भोजन जुटाउनुपर्थ्यो ।

20 यहूदा र इस्राएलका मानिसहरू समुद्र छेउका बालुवाजत्तिकै असङ्ख्य थिए । तिनीहरू खाँदै र पिउँदै थिए अनि खुसी थिए ।
The people of Judah and Israel were as numerous as the sand on the seashore, and they were eating and drinking and rejoicing.
21 सोलोमनले यूफ्रेटिस नदीदेखि पलिश्तिहरूको देश र मिश्रको सिमानासम्म राज्य गर्थे । सोलोमनको जीवनभर तिनीहरूले तिनीकहाँ कर ल्याए र तिनको सेवा गरे ।
And Solomon reigned over all the kingdoms from the Euphrates to the land of the Philistines, as far as the border of Egypt. These kingdoms offered tribute and served Solomon all the days of his life.
22 सोलोमनको एक दिनको खाना पचहत्तर मुरी मसिनो पिठो, एक सय पचास मुरी अन्न,
Solomon’s provisions for a single day were thirty cors of fine flour, sixty cors of meal,
23 पोसिएका दसवटा गाई-गोरु, खर्कमा पालेका बिसवटा गाई-गोरु, एक सयवटा भेडा-बाख्रा अनि मृग, हरिण, बराँठ र कुखुराहरू थिए ।
ten fat oxen, twenty range oxen, and a hundred sheep, as well as deer, gazelles, roebucks, and fattened poultry.
24 किनकि तिनले युफ्रेटिस नदीको पश्चिमपट्टिका सबै देश अर्थात् तिफसादेखि गाजासम्मा राज्य गर्थे, र तिनको वरिपरि भएकाहरू सबैसित तिनी शान्तिमा बस्थे ।
For Solomon had dominion over everything west of the Euphrates —over all the kingdoms from Tiphsah to Gaza—and he had peace on all sides.
25 यहूदा र इस्राएल सुरक्षित थिए । सोलोमनको जीवनभर दानदेखि बेर्शेबासम्म हरेक मानिस आ-आफ्नै दाख र नेभाराको मुनि सुरक्षितसाथ बस्थ्यो ।
Throughout the days of Solomon, Judah and Israel dwelt securely from Dan to Beersheba, each man under his own vine and his own fig tree.
26 सोलोमनका रथहरूका लागि घोडाहरूका चालिस हजारवटा तबेला, र बाह्र हजार घोडचढी थिए ।

27 जिल्ला-जिल्लाका अधिकृतहरूले प्रत्येक महिना पालैपालो राजा सोलोमन र तिनको टेबुलमा बसेर खानेहरू सबैका निम्ति भोजन जुटाउँथे । तिनीहरूलाई कुनै कुराको कमी थिएन ।
Each month the governors in turn provided food for King Solomon and all who came to his table. They saw to it that nothing was lacking.
28 रथका घोडाहरू र अन्य घोडाहरूका लागि पनि तिनीहरूले तोकिएका आ-आफ्नै जौ र पराल ल्याउने गर्थे ।
Each one also brought to the required place their quotas of barley and straw for the chariot horses and other horses.
29 परमेश्वरले सोलोमनलाई महान् बुद्धि र समुद्रीतटका बालुवाजस्तै फराकिलो समझशक्ति दिनुभयो ।
And God gave Solomon wisdom, exceedingly deep insight, and understanding beyond measure, like the sand on the seashore.
30 पूर्वका सबै मानिस र मिश्रका सबै बुद्धिभन्दा सोलोमनको बुद्धि श्रेष्ठ थियो । तिनी सबै मानिसभन्दा बुद्धिमानी थिए ।
Solomon’s wisdom was greater than that of all the men of the East, greater than all the wisdom of Egypt.
31 तिनी एज्री एतान, माहोलका छोराहरू हेमान, कलकोल र दर्दाभन्दा बुद्धिमानी थिए अनि तिनको ख्याति वरिपरिका सबै जातिहरूमा फैलिएको थियो ।
He was wiser than all men—wiser than Ethan the Ezrahite, and wiser than Heman, Calcol, and Darda, the sons of Mahol. And his fame spread throughout the surrounding nations.
32 तिनले तिन हजारवटा हितोपदेशको रचना गरे, र तिनका गीतहरूको सङ्ख्या एक हजार पाँचवटा थियो ।
Solomon composed three thousand proverbs, and his songs numbered a thousand and five.
33 तिनले बोट बिरुवाहरूको विषयमा लेबनानको देवदारुदेखि लिएर भित्तामा उम्रने हिसपसम्मका बिरुवाहरूको वर्णन गरे । तिनले पशुपक्षी, घस्रने प्राणीहरू र माछाको बारेमा पनि वर्णन गरे ।
He spoke of trees, from the cedar in Lebanon to the hyssop growing in the wall, and he taught about animals, birds, reptiles, and fish.
34 सोलोमनको बुद्धि सुन्न सबै जातिका मानिसहरू आउने गर्थे । तिनको बुद्धि सुनेका पृथ्वीका सबै राजाका प्रतिनिधिहरू तिनीकहाँ आउने गर्थे ।
So men of all nations came to listen to Solomon’s wisdom, sent by all the kings of the earth, who had heard of his wisdom.
