Judah and Israel were numerous as the sand which is by the sea in multitude, eating and drinking and making merry.

Those officers provided food for King Solomon, and for all who came to King Solomon’s table, every man in his month. They let nothing be lacking.
28 Tudi ječmen in slamo za konje in [enogrbe] velblode so prinašali na kraj, kjer so bili častniki, vsak moški glede na svojo zadolžitev.
They also brought barley and straw for the horses and swift steeds to the place where the officers were, each man according to his duty.

He spoke three thousand proverbs, and his songs numbered one thousand and five.
33 Govoril je o drevesih, od cedrovega drevesa, ki je na Libanonu, celo do izopa, ki poganja iz zidu. Govoril je tudi o živini, o perjadi, o plazečih stvareh in o ribah.
He spoke of trees, from the cedar that is in Lebanon even to the hyssop that grows out of the wall; he also spoke of animals, of birds, of creeping things, and of fish.
34 In tja so prihajali iz vseh ljudstev, da poslušajo Salomonovo modrost, od vseh zemeljskih kraljev, ki so slišali o njegovi modrosti.
