1 Reis 10
1 E ouvindo a rainha de Saba a fama de Salomão, ácerca do nome do Senhor, veiu proval-o por enigmas.
When the queen of Sheba heard of the fame of Solomon concerning the LORD’s name, she came to test him with hard questions.
2 E veiu a Jerusalem com um mui grande exercito; com camelos carregados de especiarias, e muitissimo oiro, e pedras preciosas: e veiu a Salom o, e disse-lhe tudo quanto tinha no seu coração.
She came to Jerusalem with a very great caravan, with camels that bore spices, very much gold, and precious stones; and when she had come to Solomon, she talked with him about all that was in her heart.
3 E Salomão lhe declarou todas as suas palavras: nenhuma coisa se escondeu ao rei, que não lhe declarasse.
Solomon answered all her questions. There wasn’t anything hidden from the king which he didn’t tell her.
4 Vendo pois a rainha de Saba toda a sabedoria de Salomão, e a casa que edificara,
When the queen of Sheba had seen all the wisdom of Solomon, the house that he had built,
5 E a comida da sua mesa, e o assentar de seus servos, e o estar de seus creados, e os vestidos d'elles, e os seus copeiros, e a sua subida, pela qual subia á casa do Senhor, não houve mais espirito n'ella.
the food of his table, the sitting of his servants, the attendance of his officials, their clothing, his cup bearers, and his ascent by which he went up to the LORD’s house, there was no more spirit in her.
6 E disse ao rei: Foi verdade a palavra que ouvi na minha terra, das tuas coisas e da tua sabedoria.
She said to the king, “It was a true report that I heard in my own land of your acts and of your wisdom.
7 E eu não cria n'aquellas palavras, até que vim, e os meus olhos o viram; eis que me não disseram metade; sobre-pujaste em sabedoria e bens a fama que ouvi.
However, I didn’t believe the words until I came and my eyes had seen it. Behold, not even half was told me! Your wisdom and prosperity exceed the fame which I heard.
8 Bemaventurados os teus homens, bemaventurados estes teus servos, que estão sempre diante de ti, que ouvem a tua sabedoria!
Happy are your men, happy are these your servants who stand continually before you, who hear your wisdom.
9 Bemdito seja o Senhor teu Deus, que teve agrado em ti, para te pôr no throno de Israel: porque o Senhor ama a Israel para sempre, por isso te estabeleceu rei, para fazeres juizo e justiça.
Blessed is the LORD your God, who delighted in you, to set you on the throne of Israel. Because the LORD loved Israel forever, therefore he made you king, to do justice and righteousness.”
10 E deu ao rei cento e vinte talentos de oiro, e muitissimas especiarias, e pedras preciosas: nunca veiu especiaria em tanta abundancia, como a que a rainha de Saba deu ao rei Salomão.
She gave the king one hundred and twenty talents of gold, and a very great quantity of spices, and precious stones. Never again was there such an abundance of spices as these which the queen of Sheba gave to King Solomon.
11 Tambem as náos d'Hirão, que de Ophir levavam oiro, traziam de Ophir muitissima madeira de Almug, e pedras preciosas.
The fleet of Hiram that brought gold from Ophir also brought in from Ophir great quantities of almug trees and precious stones.
12 E d'esta madeira d'Almug fez o rei balaustres para a casa do Senhor, e para a casa do rei, como tambem harpas e alaúdes para os cantores: nunca veiu tal madeira de Almug, nem se viu até o dia d'hoje.
The king made of the almug trees pillars for the LORD’s house and for the king’s house, harps also and stringed instruments for the singers; no such almug trees came or were seen to this day.
13 E o rei Salomão deu á rainha de Saba tudo quanto lhe pediu o seu desejo, de mais do que lhe deu, segundo a largueza do rei Salomão: então voltou e partiu para a sua terra, ella e os seus servos.
King Solomon gave to the queen of Sheba all her desire, whatever she asked, in addition to that which Solomon gave her of his royal bounty. So she turned and went to her own land, she and her servants.
14 E era o peso do oiro que se trazia a Salomão cada anno seiscentos e sessenta e seis talentos de oiro;
Now the weight of gold that came to Solomon in one year was six hundred and sixty-six talents of gold,
15 Além do dos negociantes, e do contracto dos especieiros, e de todos os reis da Arabia, e dos governadores da mesma terra.
in addition to that which the traders brought, and the traffic of the merchants, and of all the kings of the mixed people, and of the governors of the country.
16 Tambem o rei Salomão fez duzentos pavezes de oiro batido; seiscentos siclos de oiro mandou pesar para cada pavez;
King Solomon made two hundred bucklers of beaten gold; six hundred shekels of gold went to one buckler.
17 Assim mesmo trezentos escudos de oiro batido; tres arrateis de oiro mandou pesar para cada escudo; e o rei os poz na casa do bosque do Libano.
He made three hundred shields of beaten gold; three minas of gold went to one shield; and the king put them in the House of the Forest of Lebanon.
18 Fez mais o rei um grande throno de marfim, e o cobriu de oiro purissimo.
Moreover the king made a great throne of ivory, and overlaid it with the finest gold.
19 Tinha este throno seis degraus, e era a cabeça do throno por detraz redonda, e de ambas as bandas tinha encostos até ao assento: e dois leões estavam junto aos encostos.
There were six steps to the throne, and the top of the throne was round behind; and there were armrests on either side by the place of the seat, and two lions standing beside the armrests.
20 Tambem doze leões estavam ali sobre os seis degraus de ambas as bandas: nunca se tinha feito obra similhante em nenhum dos reinos.
Twelve lions stood there on the one side and on the other on the six steps. Nothing like it was made in any kingdom.
21 Tambem todos os vasos de beber do rei Salomão eram de oiro, e todos os vasos da casa do bosque do Libano eram de oiro puro: não havia n'elles prata; porque nos dias de Salomão não tinha estimação alguma.
All King Solomon’s drinking vessels were of gold, and all the vessels of the House of the Forest of Lebanon were of pure gold. None were of silver, because it was considered of little value in the days of Solomon.
22 Porque o rei tinha no mar as náos de Tarsis, com as náos de Hirão: uma vez em tres annos tornavam as náos de Tarsis, e traziam oiro e prata, marfim, e bugios, e pavões.
For the king had a fleet of ships of Tarshish at sea with Hiram’s fleet. Once every three years the fleet of Tarshish came bringing gold, silver, ivory, apes, and peacocks.
23 Assim o rei Salomão excedeu a todos os reis da terra: tanto em riquezas como em sabedoria.
So King Solomon exceeded all the kings of the earth in riches and in wisdom.
24 E toda a terra buscava a face de Salomão, para ouvir a sua sabedoria, que Deus tinha posto no seu coração.
All the earth sought the presence of Solomon to hear his wisdom which God had put in his heart.
25 E traziam cada um por seu presente vasos de prata e vasos de oiro, e vestidos, e armaduras, e especiarias, cavallos e mulas: cada coisa de anno em anno.
Year after year, every man brought his tribute, vessels of silver, vessels of gold, clothing, armour, spices, horses, and mules.
26 Tambem ajuntou Salomão carros e cavalleiros, de sorte que tinha mil e quatrocentos carros e doze mil cavalleiros: e os levou ás cidades dos carros, e junto ao rei em Jerusalem.
Solomon gathered together chariots and horsemen. He had one thousand and four hundred chariots and twelve thousand horsemen. He kept them in the chariot cities and with the king at Jerusalem.
27 E fez o rei que em Jerusalem houvesse prata como pedras: e cedros em abundancia como figueiras bravas que estão nas planicies.
The king made silver as common as stones in Jerusalem, and cedars as common as the sycamore trees that are in the lowland.
28 E tiravam cavallos do Egypto para Salomão: e ás manadas as recebiam os mercadores do rei, cada manada por um certo preço.
The horses which Solomon had were brought out of Egypt. The king’s merchants received them in droves, each drove at a price.
29 E subia e sahia o carro do Egypto por seiscentos siclos de prata, e o cavallo por cento e cincoenta: e assim, por meio d'elles, os tiravam para todos os reis dos hetheos e para os reis da Syria.
A chariot was imported from Egypt for six hundred shekels of silver, and a horse for one hundred and fifty shekels; and so they exported them to all the kings of the Hittites and to the kings of Syria.
