2 Seenaa 9
1 Mootittiin Shebaa waaʼee maqaa Solomoon dhageenyaan gaaffiiwwan jajjaboodhaan qortee isa ilaaluuf gara Yerusaalem dhufte. Isheenis miiltoo akka malee baayʼee wajjin gaalawwan urgooftuu, warqee hedduu fi dhagaawwan gati jabeeyyii baatan fudhattee dhufte; Solomoon bira geenyaanis waan garaa ishee jiru hunda isa wajjin haasofte.
Now the queen of Sheba, hearing great things of Solomon, came to Jerusalem to put his wisdom to the test with hard questions; and with her came a very great train, and camels weighted down with spices, and great stores of gold and jewels: and when she came to Solomon she had talk with him of everything in her mind.
2 Solomoonis gaaffii ishee hundaaf deebii kenne; wanni inni isheef ibsuu dadhabe tokko iyyuu hin turre.
And Solomon gave her answers to all her questions; there was no secret which he did not make clear to her.
3 Mootittiin Shebaa yommuu ogummaa Solomoon, masaraa mootummaa kan inni ijaare,
And when the queen of Sheba had seen the wisdom of Solomon, and the house which he had made,
4 nyaata maaddii isaa irratti dhiʼaatu, haala itti qondaaltonni isaa tataaʼan, hojjettoota uffata hojii uffatanii hojjetan, warra daadhii isaaf dhiʼeessanii fi aarsaa gubamu kan inni mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo keessatti dhiʼeesse argitetti akka malee dinqisiifatte.
And the food at his table, and all his servants seated there, and those who were waiting on him in their places, and their robes, and his wine-servants and their robes, and the burned offerings which he made in the house of the Lord, there was no more spirit in her.
5 Isheenis mootichaan akkana jette; “Oduun ani waaʼee waan ati hojjetteetii fi waaʼee ogummaa keetii biyyuma kootti dhagaʼe sun dhugaa dha.
And she said to the king, The account which was given to me in my country of your acts and your wisdom was true.
6 Ani garuu hamman dhufee ijuma kootiin argutti waan isaan jedhan sana hin amanne. Dhugumaan guddina ogummaa keetii keessaa walakkaan isaa iyyuu natti hin himamne; ati oduu ani dhagaʼe sana akka malee caalta.
But I had no faith in what was said about you, till I came and saw for myself; and truly, word was not given me of half your great wisdom; you are much greater than they said.
7 Namoonni kee hammam haa gammadan! Qondaaltonni kee warri yeroo hunda fuula kee dura dhadhaabatanii ogummaa kee dhagaʼan hammam haa gammadan!
Happy are your wives and happy these your servants whose place is ever before you, hearing your words of wisdom.
8 Waaqayyo Waaqni kee inni sitti gammadee akka ati mootii taatee Waaqayyo Waaqa keetiif bulchituuf teessoo isaa irra si teessise sun haa galateeffamu. Waaqni kee sababii Israaʼeliif jaalala qabuu fi sababii bara baraan jabeessee isaan dhaabuuf fedhii qabuuf akka ati murtii qajeelaa fi qajeelummaa eegduuf isaan irratti mootii si godheera.”
Praise be to the Lord your God whose pleasure it was to put you on the seat of his kingdom to be king for the Lord your God: because, in his love for Israel, it was the purpose of your God to make them strong for ever, he made you king over them, to be their judge in righteousness.
9 Isheenis warqee taalaantii 120, urgooftuu akka malee baayʼee fi dhagaawwan gati jabeeyyii mootichaaf kennite. Urgooftuun akka urgooftuu mootittiin Shebaa Solomoon Mootichaaf kennite sanaa gonkumaa hin argamne.
And she gave the king a hundred and twenty talents of gold, and a great store of spices and jewels: never had such spices been seen as the queen of Sheba gave to Solomon.
10 Namoonni Hiiraamii fi namoonni Solomoon biyya Oofiir irraa warqee fidan; akkasumas muka sandaliitii fi dhagaawwan gati jabeeyyii ni fidan.
And the servants of Huram and the servants of Solomon, in addition to gold from Ophir, came back with sandal-wood and jewels.
11 Mootichis muka sandalii sana gulantaawwan mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyootii fi kan masaraa mootummaa, akkasumas baganaa fi kiraara faarfattootaa tolchuuf itti fayyadame. Wanni akkasiis takkumaa Yihuudaa keessatti hin argamne.
And with the sandal-wood the king made steps for the house of the Lord and for the king's house, and instruments of music for the makers of melody; never before had such been seen in the land of Judah.
12 Solomoon Mootichis waan isheen barbaaddee fi waan isheen kadhatte hunda mootittii Shebaatiif ni kenne; inni waan isheen isaaf geessite caalaa kenneef. Isheenis ergasii kaatee miiltota ishee wajjin biyya ofii isheetti deebite.
And King Solomon gave the queen of Sheba all her desire, whatever she made request for, in addition to what she had taken to the king. So she went back to her country with her servants.
13 Ulfinni warqee kan wagguma waggaan Solomooniif galu taalaantii 666 ture;
Now the weight of gold which came to Solomon in one year was six hundred and sixty-six talents;
14 kunis gibira daldaltoota qabeenya gurguddaatii fi kan warra qabeenya xixinnaa irraa argamuu hin dabalatu. Akkasumas mootonni Arabaa fi bulchitoonni biyyaa hundi Solomooniif warqee fi meetii ni fidan.
And in addition to what he got from traders of different sorts, all the kings of Arabia and the rulers of the country gave gold and silver to Solomon.
15 Solomoon Mootichis warqee tumame irraa gaachanawwan gurguddaa dhibba lama ni tolche; tokkoon tokkoon gaachanawwan sanaas warqee saqilii dhibba jaʼa fixe.
And King Solomon made two hundred body-covers of hammered gold, every one having six hundred shekels of gold in it.
16 Akkasumas warqee tumame irraa gaachana xixinnaa dhibba sadii ni tolche. Tokkoon tokkoon gaachana sanaas warqee saqilii dhibba sadii fixe. Mootichis gaachanawwan kanneen Masaraa mootummaa kan Bosona Libaanoon keessa ni kaaʼe.
And he made three hundred smaller body-covers of hammered gold, using three hundred shekels of gold for every cover, and the king put them in the house of the Woods of Lebanon.
17 Mootichis teessoo guddaa tokko ilka arbaa irraa hojjetee warqee qulqulluu itti uffise.
Then the king made a great ivory seat, plated with the best gold.
18 Teessoon sun gulantaawwan jaʼa qaba ture; ejjenni miillaa kan warqee irraa hojjetame tokkos itti qabsiifamee ture. Karaa teessoo sanaa lamaaniinis waan harka irra kaaʼatanitu ture; tokkoo tokkoo waan harka irra kaaʼatan sanaa biras fakkii leencaa tokko tokkotu dhaabatee ture.
There were six steps up to it, and a foot-rest of gold fixed to it, and arms on the two sides of the seat, with two lions at the side of the arms.
19 Gulantaawwan jaʼaan sana irras leenconni kudha lama tokko fiixee tokkoon, fakkiin kaan immoo fiixee kaaniin dhadhaabachaa turan. Wanni akkasii takkumaa mootummaa biraa kamiif iyyuu hin tolfamne.
And twelve lions were placed on one side and on the other side on the six steps: there was nothing like it in any kingdom.
20 Miʼi Solomoon Mootichi ittiin dhugu hundinuu warqee irraa hojjetame; miʼi Masaraa mootummaa kan Bosona Libaanoon jedhamu sanaa hundi immoo warqee qulqulluu irraa hojjetame. Sababii bara Solomoon keessa meetiin akka waan gatii hin qabne tokkootti ilaalamaa tureef wanni tokko iyyuu meetii irraa hin hojjetamne.
All King Solomon's drinking-vessels were of gold, and all the vessels of the house of the Woods of Lebanon were of the best gold: no one gave a thought to silver in the days of Solomon.
21 Mootichis dooniiwwan daldalaa kanneen namoonni Huuraam oofan qaba ture. Isaanis waggaa sadii sadiitti yeroo tokko warqee, meetii fi ilka arbaa, qamalee fi jaldeessa fidanii ni dhufu ture.
For the king had Tarshish-ships sailing with the servants of Huram: once every three years the Tarshish-ships came back with gold and silver, ivory and monkeys and peacocks.
22 Solomoon Mootichi badhaadhummaa fi ogummaadhaan mootota addunyaa hunda ni caala ture.
And King Solomon was greater than all the kings of the earth in wealth and in wisdom.
23 Mootonni addunyaa hundi ogummaa Waaqni garaa isaa keessa kaaʼe dhagaʼuuf Solomoon bira dhufuu barbaadu ture.
And all the kings of the earth came to see Solomon and to give ear to his wisdom, which God had put into his heart.
24 Namni waggaa waggaatti isa bira dhufu hundinuu kennaa miʼa meetii fi kan warqee, uffata, miʼa lolaa, urgooftuu, fardeenii fi gaangolii fidaafii ture.
And everyone took with him an offering, vessels of silver and vessels of gold, and robes, and coats of metal, and spices, and horses and beasts for transport, regularly year by year.
25 Solomoon gola fardeenii fi gaariiwwanii kuma afur akkasumas fardeen kuma kudha lama kanneen magaalaawwan gaariiwwanii keessaa fi of bira Yerusaalem keessa kaaʼate qaba ture.
Solomon had four thousand buildings for his horses and his war-carriages, and twelve thousand horsemen whom he kept, some in the carriage-towns and some with the king in Jerusalem.
26 Innis mootota Laga Efraaxiisiitii hamma biyya Filisxeemotaattii fi hamma daarii Gibxitti jiran hunda ni bulche.
And he was ruler over all the kings from the River to the land of the Philistines, as far as the limit of Egypt.
27 Mootichi akka meetiin Yerusaalem keessatti akkuma dhagaa baayʼatu, akka mukni birbirsaas akkuma mukkeen harbuu kanneen gaarran jalaatti baayʼatu ni godhe.
The king made silver as common as stones in Jerusalem and cedars like the sycamore-trees of the lowlands in number.
28 Fardeen Solomoon Gibxii fi biyyoota biraa hunda irraa bitamanii dhufan.
They got horses for Solomon from Egypt and from every land.
29 Wanni bara mootummaa Solomoon keessa hojjetaman kan biraa, jalqabaa hamma dhumaatti kitaaba seenaa Naataan raajichaa keessatti, raajii Ahiiyaa namicha Shiiloo sanaa keessattii fi mulʼata Iddoon namichi waa himu sun waaʼee Yerobiʼaam ilma Nebaat arge keessatti barreeffamanii jiru mitii?
Now the rest of the acts of Solomon, first and last, are they not recorded in the history of Nathan the prophet, and in the words of Ahijah the prophet of Shiloh, and in the visions of Iddo the seer about Jeroboam, the son of Nebat?
30 Solomoon Yerusaalem keessatti mootii taʼee waggaa afurtama saba Israaʼel hunda ni bulche.
Solomon was king over Israel in Jerusalem for forty years.
31 Innis ergasii abbootii isaa wajjin boqotee magaalaa abbaa isaa, magaalaa Daawit keessatti ni awwaalame. Rehooboʼaam ilmi isaa iddoo isaa buʼee mootii ni taʼe.
And Solomon went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth in the town of David his father; and Rehoboam his son became king in his place.
