2 Dnevnika 9
1 A carica Savska èu glas o Solomunu, pa doðe u Jerusalim da iskuša Solomuna zagonetkama sa silnom pratnjom i s kamilama koje nošahu mirisa i zlata vrlo mnogo i dragog kamenja; i došavši k Solomunu govori s njim o svemu što joj bješe u srcu.
And the queen of Saba heard [of] the name of Solomon, and she came to Jerusalem with a very large force, to prove Solomon with hard questions, and [she had] camels bearing spices in abundance, and gold, and precious stones: and she came to Solomon, and told him all that was in her mind.
2 I Solomun joj odgovori na sve rijeèi njezine; ne bješe od cara sakriveno ništa da joj ne bi odgovorio.
And Solomon told her all her words; and there passed not a word from Solomon which he told her not.
3 A kad carica Savska vidje mudrost Solomunovu i dom koji bješe sazidao,
And the queen of Saba saw the wisdom of Solomon, and the house which he had built,
4 I jela na stolu njegovu, i stanove sluga njegovijeh i dvorbu dvorana njegovijeh i odijelo njihovo, i peharnike njegove i njihovo odijelo, i njegove žrtve paljenice koje prinošaše u domu Gospodnjem, ona doðe izvan sebe,
and the meat of the tables, and the sitting of his servants, and the standing of his ministers, and their raiment; and his cupbearers, and their apparel; and the whole burnt offerings which he offered up in the house of the Lord; then she was in ecstasy.
5 Pa reèe caru: istina je što sam èula u svojoj zemlji o stvarima tvojim i o mudrosti tvojoj.
And she said to the king, [It was] a true report which I heard in my land concerning your words, and concerning your wisdom.
6 Ali ne htjeh vjerovati što govorahu dokle ne doðem i vidim svojim oèima; a gle, ni pola mi nije kazano o velikoj mudrosti tvojoj; nadvisio si glas koji sam slušala.
Yet I believed not the reports until I came, and my eyes saw: and, behold, the half of the abundance of your wisdom was not told me: you have exceeded the report which I heard.
7 Blago ljudima tvojim i blago svijem slugama tvojim, koje jednako stoje pred tobom i slušaju mudrost tvoju.
Blessed [are] your men, blessed [are] these your servants, who stand before you continually, and hear your wisdom.
8 Da je blagosloven Gospod Bog tvoj, kojemu si omilio, te te posadi na prijesto svoj da caruješ mjesto Gospoda Boga svojega; jer Bog tvoj ljubi Izrailja da bi ga utvrdio dovijeka, zato im postavi tebe carem da sudiš i dijeliš pravicu.
Blessed be the Lord your God, who took pleasure in you, to set you upon his throne for a king, to the Lord your God: forasmuch as the Lord your God loved Israel to establish them for ever, therefore he has set you over them for a king to execute judgment and justice.
9 Potom dade caru sto i dvadeset talanata zlata i vrlo mnogo mirisa i dragoga kamenja; nigda više ne bi takvih mirisa kakve dade carica Savska caru Solomunu.
And she gave the king a hundred and twenty talents of gold, and spices in very great abundance, and precious stones: and there were not [any where else] such spices as those which the queen of Saba gave king Solomon.
10 I sluge Hiramove i sluge Solomunove koje donesoše zlata iz Ofira, dovezoše drveta almugima i dragoga kamenja.
And the servants of Solomon and the servants of Chiram brought gold to Solomon out of Suphir, and pine timber, and precious stones.
11 I naèini car od toga drveta almugima put u dom Gospodnji i u dom carev, i gusle i psaltire za pjevaèe; nigda se prije nijesu vidjele take stvari u zemlji Judinoj.
And the king made of the pine timber steps to the house of the Lord, and to the king's house, and harps and lutes for the singers: and such were not seen before in the land of Juda.
12 A car Solomun dade carici Savskoj što god zaželje i zaiska osim uzdarja za ono što bješe donijela caru. Potom ona otide i vrati se u zemlju svoju sa slugama svojim.
And king Solomon gave to the queen of Saba all that she requested, besides all that she brought to king Solomon: and she returned to her [own] land.
13 A zlata što dohoðaše Solomunu svake godine bješe šest stotina i šezdeset i šest talanata,
And the weight of the gold that was brought to Solomon in one year was six hundred and sixty-six talents of gold,
14 Osim onoga što donošahu trgovci i oni koji prodavahu mirise; i svi carevi arapski i glavari zemaljski donošahu Solomunu zlato i srebro.
besides what the men who were regularly appointed and the merchants brought, and all the kings of Arabia and princes of the land: all brought gold and silver to king Solomon.
15 I naèini car Solomun dvjesta štitova od kovanoga zlata, šest stotina sikala kovanoga zlata dajuæi na jedan štit,
And king Solomon made two hundred shields of beaten gold: there were six hundred [shekels] of pure gold to one shield.
16 I tri stotine malijeh štitova od kovanoga zlata, dajuæi trista sikala zlata na jedan štitiæ. I ostavi ih car u domu od šume Livanske.
And three hundred buckles of beaten gold: [the weight] of three hundred gold shekels went to one buckler: and the king placed them in the house of the forest of Lebanon.
17 I naèini car velik prijesto od slonove kosti, i obloži ga èistijem zlatom.
And the king made a great throne of ivory, and he gilded it with pure gold.
18 A bijaše šest basamaka u prijestola, i podnožje od zlata sastavljeno s prijestolom, i ruèice s obje strane sjedišta, i dva lava stajahu pokraj ruèica.
And [there were] six steps to the throne, riveted with gold, and elbows on either side of the seat of the throne, and two lions standing by the elbows:
19 I dvanaest lavova stajaše na šest basamaka otud i odovud. Ne bi taki naèinjen ni u kojem carstvu.
and twelve lions standing there on the six steps on each side. There was not the like in any [other] kingdom.
20 I svi sudovi iz kojih pijaše car Solomun bijahu zlatni, i svi sudovi u domu od šume Livanske bijahu od èistoga zlata; od srebra ne bješe ništa; srebro bješe ništa za vremena Solomunova.
And all king Solomon's vessels were of gold, and all the vessels of the house of the forest of Lebanon were covered with gold: silver was not thought anything of in the days of Solomon.
21 Jer careve laðe hoðahu u Tarsis sa slugama Hiramovijem: jedanput u tri godine vraæahu se laðe Tarsiske donoseæi zlato i srebro, slonove kosti i majmune i paune.
For a ship went for the king to Tharsis with the servants of Chiram: once every three years came vessels from Tharsis to the king, laden with gold, and silver, and ivory, and apes.
22 Tako car Solomun bijaše veæi od svijeh careva zemaljskih bogatstvom i mudrošæu.
And Solomon exceeded all [other] kings both in riches and wisdom.
23 I svi carevi zemaljski tražahu da vide Solomuna da èuju mudrost njegovu, koju mu dade Gospod u srce.
And all the kings of the earth sought the presence of Solomon, to hear his wisdom, which God had put in his heart.
24 I donošahu mu svi dare, sudove srebrne i sudove zlatne, i haljine i oružje i mirise, konje i mazge svake godine,
And they brought every one his gifts, silver vessels and golden vessels, and raiment, myrrh and spices, horses and mules, a rate every year.
25 Tako da imaše Solomun èetiri tisuæe staja za konje i kola, i dvanaest tisuæa konjika, koje namjesti po gradovima gdje mu bijahu kola i kod sebe u Jerusalimu.
And Solomon had four thousand mares for chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen; and he put them in the chariot cities, and with the king in Jerusalem.
26 I vladaše nad svijem carevima od rijeke do zemlje Filistejske i do meðe Misirske.
And he rules over all the kings from the river even to the land of the Philistines, and to the borders of Egypt.
27 I uèini car, te u Jerusalimu bješe srebra kao kamena, a kedrovijeh drva kao divljih smokava koje rastu po polju, tako mnogo.
And the king made gold and silver in Jerusalem as stones, and cedars as the sycamore trees in the plain for abundance.
28 I dovoðahu Solomunu konje iz Misira i iz svijeh zemalja.
And Solomon imported horses from Egypt, and from every [other] country.
29 A ostala djela Solomunova prva i pošljednja nijesu li zapisana u knjizi Natana proroka i u proroèanstvu Ahije Silomljanina i u utvari Ida vidioca o Jerovoamu sinu Navatovu?
And the rest of the acts of Solomon, the first and the last, behold, these are written in the words of Nathan the prophet, and in the words of Achia the Selonite, and in the visions of Joel the seer concerning Jeroboam the son of Nabat.
30 A carova Solomun u Jerusalimu nad svijem Izrailjem èetrdeset godina.
And Solomon reigned over all Israel forty years.
31 I poèinu Solomun kod otaca svojih, i pogreboše ga u gradu Davida oca njegova; a na njegovo mjesto zacari se Rovoam sin njegov.
And Solomon fell asleep, and they buried him in the city of David his father: and Roboam his son reigned in his stead.
