< 2 Crônicas 9 >
1 E ouvindo a rainha de Saba a fama de Salomão, veiu a Jerusalem, provar a Salomão com enigmas, com um mui grande exercito, e camelos carregados d'especiarias, e oiro em abundancia e pedras preciosas; e veiu a Salomão, e fallou com elle de tudo o que tinha no seu coração.
And, the queen of Sheba, heard the report of Solomon, so she came to prove Solomon with abstruse questions, in Jerusalem, with a very great train, and camels bearing spices, and gold in abundance, and precious stones, —and, when she was come to Solomon, she spake with him, as to all that was near her heart.
2 E Salomão lhe declarou todas as suas palavras: e nenhuma coisa se occultou a Salomão, que lhe não declarasse.
And Solomon answered her all her questions, —and there was nothing hidden from Solomon, which he told her not.
3 Vendo pois a rainha de Saba a sabedoria de Salomão, e a casa que edificara;
And, when the queen of Sheba had seen the wisdom of Solomon, and the house which he had built;
4 E as iguarias da sua mesa, e o assentar dos seus servos, e o estar dos seus creados, e os vestidos d'elles; e os seus copeiros, e os vestidos d'elles; e a sua subida pela qual elle subia á casa do Senhor, ella ficou como fóra de si.
and the food of his table, and the seats of his servants, and the standing of his attendants, with their apparel, and his cupbearers, and their apparel, and his ascent whereby he used to ascend the house of Yahweh, then was there in her no more spirit.
5 Então disse ao rei: Foi verdade a palavra que ouvi na minha terra ácerca dos teus feitos e da tua sabedoria.
And she said unto the king, True was the word, which I heard in my own land, —concerning thine affairs, and concerning thy wisdom.
6 Porém não cria as suas palavras, até que vim, e meus olhos o viram, e eis-que me não disseram a metade da grandeza da tua sabedoria: sobrepujaste á fama que ouvi
Howbeit I believed not their words, until I had come and mine own eyes had seen, when lo! there had not been told me, the half of the fulness of thy wisdom, —thou dost exceed the report which I heard.
7 Bemaventurados os teus homens, e bemaventurados estes teus servos, que estão sempre diante de ti, e ouvem a tua sabedoria!
How happy! are thy men, and how happy! are these thy servants, —who are standing before thee continually, and hearing thy wisdom.
8 Bemdito seja o Senhor teu Deus, que se agradou em ti para te pôr como rei sobre o seu throno, pelo Senhor teu Deus: porquanto teu Deus ama a Israel, para estabelecel-o perpetuamente; e poz-te por rei sobre elles, para fazeres juizo e justiça.
Yahweh thy God be blessed, who hath delighted in thee, to set thee upon his throne as king unto Yahweh thy God. Because of the love of thy God unto Israel, to establish them unto times age-abiding, therefore hath he set thee over them, as king, to execute justice and righteousness.
9 E deu ao rei cento e vinte talentos d'oiro, e especiarias em grande abundancia, e pedras preciosas: e nunca houve taes especiarias, quaes a rainha de Saba deu ao rei Salomão.
And she gave unto the king, a hundred and twenty talents of gold, and spices in great abundance and precious stones, —and there was none like that spice, which the queen of Sheba gave unto King Solomon.
10 E tambem os servos d'Hurão, e os servos de Salomão, que de Ophir tinham trazido oiro, trouxeram madeira d'algum, e pedras preciosas.
Moreover also, the servants of Huram, and the servants of Solomon, who brought gold from Ophir, brought sandal-wood and precious stones.
11 E fez o rei corredores de madeira d'algum, para a casa do Senhor, e para a casa do rei, como tambem harpas e alaudes para os cantores, quaes nunca d'antes se viram na terra de Judah.
And the king made of the sandal-wood, stairs unto the house of Yahweh, and unto the house of the king, also lyres and harps, for the singers, —and there were none seen like them before, in the land of Judah.
12 E o rei Salomão deu á rainha de Saba tudo quanto lhe agradou, e o que lhe pediu, alem do que ella mesma trouxera ao rei: assim virou-se e foi para a sua terra, ella e os seus servos.
And, King Solomon, gave to the queen of Sheba all her desire, whatsoever she asked, besides [a return for] that which she had brought unto the king, —so she turned, and went away to her own land, she, and her servants.
13 E era o peso do oiro, que vinha em um anno a Salomão, seiscentos e sessenta e seis talentos d'oiro,
Now, the weight of gold that came to Solomon in one year, was six hundred and sixty-six talents of gold;
14 Afóra do que os negociantes e mercadores traziam: tambem todos os reis da Arabia, e os principes da mesma terra traziam a Salomão oiro e prata.
besides what came in from the subjugated, and what the travelling merchants were bringing in, —and, all the kings of Arabia and the pashas of the land, were bringing gold and silver, unto Solomon.
15 Tambem fez Salomão duzentos pavezes d'oiro batido: para cada pavez mandou pesar seiscentos siclos d'oiro batido.
And King Solomon made two hundred shields of beaten gold, —six hundred [shekels] of beaten gold, overlay one shield;
16 Como tambem trezentos escudos d'oiro batido; para cada escudo mandou pezar trezentos siclos d'oiro: e Salomão os poz na casa do bosque do Libano.
also three hundred bucklers of beaten gold, three hundred [shekels] of gold, overlay one buckler, —and the king placed them in the house of the forest of Lebanon.
17 Fez mais o rei um grande throno de marfim; e o cobriu d'oiro puro.
And the king made a great throne of ivory, —and overlaid it with pure gold;
18 E o throno tinha seis degráus, e um estrado d'oiro, pegado ao throno, e encostos d'ambas as bandas no logar do assento: e dois leões estavam junto aos encostos.
and there were six steps to the throne, and a footstool in gold, unto the throne, made fast, and supports, on this side and on that, unto the seat, —and, two lions, standing by the supports;
19 E doze leões estavam ali d'ambas as bandas, sobre os seis degraus: outro tal se não fez em nenhum reino.
and, twelve lions, standing there upon the six steps, on this side and on that, —there was never made the like, for any kingdom.
20 Tambem todos os vasos de beber do rei Salomão eram d'oiro, e todos os vasos da casa do bosque do Libano, d'oiro puro: a prata reputava-se por nada nos dias de Salomão.
And, all the drinking vessels of King Solomon, were of gold, and, all the vessels of the house of the forest of Lebanon, were of purified gold, —there was no silver, it was esteemed, in the days of Solomon, as nothing.
21 Porque, indo os navios do rei com os servos d'Hurão, a Tharsis, tornavam os navios de Tharsis, uma vez em tres annos, e traziam oiro e prata, marfim, e bugios, e pavões.
For, the ships of the king, used to go to Tarshish, with the servants of Huram, —once in three years, came in the ships of Tarshish, bearing gold and silver, ivory and apes, and peacocks.
22 Assim excedeu o rei Salomão todos os reis da terra, em riqueza e sabedoria.
And so King Solomon became greater than all the kings of the earth, —as to riches, and wisdom.
23 E todos os reis da terra procuravam ver o rosto de Salomão, para ouvirem a sua sabedoria, que Deus lhe dera no seu coração.
And, all the kings of the earth, were seeking the face of Solomon, —to hear his wisdom, which God had put in his heart;
24 E elles traziam cada um o seu presente, vasos d'oiro, e vestidos, armaduras, e especiarias, cavallos e mulos: cada coisa d'anno em anno.
and, they, were bringing in every man his present—utensils of silver, and utensils of gold, and mantles, armour, and spices, horses and mules, —the need of a year in a year.
25 Teve tambem Salomão quatro mil estrebarias de cavallos e carros, e doze mil cavalleiros: e pôl-os nas cidades dos carros, e com o rei em Jerusalem.
And Solomon had four thousand stalls of horses, and chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen, —and he settled them in the chariot cities, and with the king in Jerusalem.
26 E dominava sobre todos os reis, desde o rio até á terra dos philisteos, e até ao termo do Egypto.
And he ruled over all the kings, —from the river [Euphrates], even up to the land of the Philistines, yea up to the bounds of Egypt.
27 Tambem o rei fez que houvesse prata em Jerusalem como pedras, e cedros em tanta abundancia como as figueiras bravas que ha pelas campinas.
And the king made the silver in Jerusalem like the stones, —and, the cedar trees, made he like the sycomores which are in the lowland, for abundance.
28 E do Egypto e de todas aquellas terras traziam cavallos a Salomão.
And they used to bring horses out of Egypt unto Solomon, and out of all lands.
29 Os mais successos pois de Salomão, tanto os primeiros como os ultimos, porventura não estão escriptos no livro das fallas de Nathan, o propheta, e na prophecia d'Ahias, o silonita, e nas visões de Iddo, o vidente, ácerca de Jeroboão, filho de Nebat
Now, the rest of the acts of Solomon, first and last, are they not written in the records of Nathan the prophet, and in the prophecy of Ahijah the Shilonite, and in the visions of Iddo the seer, concerning Jeroboam son of Nebat?
30 E reinou Salomão em Jerusalem quarenta annos sobre todo o Israel.
And Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel, forty years.
31 E dormiu Salomão com seus paes, e o sepultaram na cidade de David seu pae: e Roboão, seu filho, reinou em seu logar.
And Solomon slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David his father, —and Rehoboam his son reigned in his stead.
