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 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 I Solomun joj odgovori na sve rijeèi njezine; ne bješe od cara sakriveno ništa da joj ne bi odgovorio.
And Solomon answered her all her questions, —and there was nothing hidden from Solomon, which he told her not.
3 A kad carica Savska vidje mudrost Solomunovu i dom koji bješe sazidao,
And, when the queen of Sheba had seen 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 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 Pa reèe caru: istina je što sam èula u svojoj zemlji o stvarima tvojim i o mudrosti tvojoj.
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 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.
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 Blago ljudima tvojim i blago svijem slugama tvojim, koje jednako stoje pred tobom i slušaju mudrost tvoju.
How happy! are thy men, and how happy! are these thy servants, —who are standing before thee continually, and hearing thy 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.
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 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 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 I sluge Hiramove i sluge Solomunove koje donesoše zlata iz Ofira, dovezoše drveta almugima i dragoga kamenja.
Moreover also, the servants of Huram, and the servants of Solomon, who brought gold from Ophir, brought sandal-wood 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 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 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 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 A zlata što dohoðaše Solomunu svake godine bješe šest stotina i šezdeset i šest talanata,
Now, the weight of gold that came 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 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 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, —six hundred [shekels] of beaten gold, overlay 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.
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 I naèini car velik prijesto od slonove kosti, i obloži ga èistijem zlatom.
And the king made a great throne of ivory, —and overlaid 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, 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 I dvanaest lavova stajaše na šest basamaka otud i odovud. Ne bi taki naèinjen ni u kojem carstvu.
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 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 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 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, 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 Tako car Solomun bijaše veæi od svijeh careva zemaljskih bogatstvom i mudrošæu.
And so King Solomon became greater than all the kings of the earth, —as to 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, were seeking the face 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, 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 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 stalls of horses, and chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen, —and he settled 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 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 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 the silver in Jerusalem like the stones, —and, the cedar trees, made he like the sycomores which are in the lowland, for abundance.
28 I dovoðahu Solomunu konje iz Misira i iz svijeh zemalja.
And they used to bring horses out of Egypt unto Solomon, and out of all lands.
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?
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 A carova Solomun u Jerusalimu nad svijem Izrailjem èetrdeset godina.
And Solomon reigned in Jerusalem 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 slept with his fathers, and they buried him in the city of David his father, —and Rehoboam his son reigned in his stead.
