Taariikhdii Labaad 9
1 Boqoraddii Shebaa markay maqashay Sulaymaan warkiisii ayay Sulaymaan ugu timid Yeruusaalem inay ku imtixaanto su'aalo adadag, oo waxay wadatay dad aad u badan, iyo awr badan oo ay ku raran yihiin uunsi, iyo dahab aad u badan, iyo dhagaxyo qaali ah; oo markay Sulaymaan u timid wixii qalbigeeda ku jiray oo dhan ayay kala hadashay.
The queen of Sheba heard how famous Solomon was, so she came to Jerusalem to test him with tough questions. She brought with her a very large entourage, with camels loaded with spices, large amounts of gold, and precious gemstones. She came to Solomon and asked him about everything she had on her mind.
2 Sulaymaanna wuxuu uga jawaabay su'aalaheedii oo dhan, oo wax Sulaymaan ka qarsoonaa oo uusan u sheegin ma jirin.
Solomon answered all her questions. There was nothing he couldn't explain to her.
3 Boqoraddii Shebaana markay aragtay xigmaddii Sulaymaan iyo gurigii uu dhisay,
When the queen of Sheba saw Solomon's wisdom, and the palace he had built,
4 iyo cuntadii miiskiisa, iyo fadhigii addoommadiisa, iyo hawshii adeegayaashiisa iyo dharkoodii, iyo kuwiisii cabniinka siin jiray iyo dharkoodii, iyo wixii uu guriga Rabbiga ku fuuli jiray, naf dambe iyadii kuma hadhin.
the food on the table, how his officials lived, how his servants operated and how they were dressed, the clothes of the waiters, and the burnt offerings he presented at the Lord's Temple, she was so astonished she could hardly breathe.
5 Markaasay boqorkii ku tidhi, Warkii aan dalkaygii ku maqlay ee ku saabsanaa falimahaaga iyo xigmaddaada run buu ahaa.
She told the king, “It's true what I heard in my own country about your proverbs and your wisdom!
6 Habase yeeshee erayadoodii ma aan rumaysan jeeraan imid oo ay indhahaygu arkeen, oo weliba xigmaddaada weynaanteedii badhna la iima sheegin, haddaba waad ka sii weyn tahay warkii aan maqlay.
But I didn't believe what they told me until I came and saw with my own eyes. In fact, I wasn't told the half of it—the extent of your wisdom far exceeds what I heard!
7 Waxaa faraxsan raggaaga oo waxaa faraxsan addoommadaadan had iyo goorba hortaada taagan oo xigmaddaadana maqla.
How happy your people must be! How happy those who work for you, who stand here every day listening to your wisdom!
8 Waxaa mahad leh Rabbiga Ilaahaaga ah oo kugu farxay inuu kugu fadhiisiyo carshigiisa inaad boqor ahaatid Rabbiga Ilaahaaga ah aawadiis. Ilaahaagu wuu jeclaaday reer binu Israa'iil inuu xoogeeyo weligood, oo sidaas aawadeed ayuu kaaga dhigay boqor iyaga u taliya inaad samaysid xukun iyo caddaalad.
Praise the Lord your God who is so pleased with you, who placed you on his throne as king to rule on his behalf. Because of the love of your God for Israel he has made them secure forever, and he has made you king over them to do what is fair and right.”
9 Markaasay boqorkii siisay boqol iyo labaatan talanti oo dahab ah, iyo uunsi faro badan, iyo dhagaxyo qaali ah; oo boqoraddii Shebaa uunsigii ay Boqor Sulaymaan siisay oo kale ma jirin.
She presented the king with one hundred and twenty talents of gold, huge amounts of spices and precious stones. Never before had there been spices like those the queen of Sheba gave to King Solomon.
10 Oo Xuuraam addoommadiisii iyo Sulaymaan addoommadiisii oo Oofir dahab ka keenay, waxay kaloo keeneen geedo almuug ah iyo dhagaxyo qaali ah.
(Hiram and of Solomon's men, who brought gold from Ophir, also brought algum wood and precious stones.
11 Oo boqorkiina geedihii almuugga ahaa ayuu gurigii Rabbiga iyo gurigii boqorkaba uga dhigay jaranjarooyin, oo wuxuu kaloo nimankii gabayaaga ahaa uga sameeyey kataarado iyo shareerado, oo waxaasoo kalena hore looguma arag dalka Yahuudah.
The king used the algum wood to make steps for the Temple and for the royal palace, and into lyres and harps for the musicians. Nothing like them had ever been seen before in the land of Judah.)
12 Oo Boqor Sulaymaanna wuxuu boqoraddii Shebaa siiyey wax alla wixii ay doonaysay oo dhan oo ay weyddiisatay, iyo weliba wax ka sii badan wixii ay boqorka u keentay. Markaasay noqotay oo dalkeedii tagtay iyada iyo addoommadeediiba.
King Solomon gave the queen of Sheba all wanted, whatever she asked for. This was far more than she had brought the king. Then she and her attendants returned home to her own country.
13 Haddaba dahabkii sannad kasta Sulaymaan u iman jiray miisaankiisu wuxuu ahaa lix boqol iyo lix iyo lixdan talanti oo dahab ah,
The weight of gold that Solomon received each year was 666 talents,
14 oo intaasu kuma jirin wixii ay keeni jireen geddisleyda iyo baayacmushtariyaashu, oo boqorradii dalka Carabta iyo taliyayaashii waddanka oo dhammuna waxay Sulaymaan u keeni jireen dahab iyo lacag.
not including that received from traders and merchants. All the kings of Arabia and governors of the land also brought gold and silver to Solomon.
15 Markaasaa Boqor Sulaymaan wuxuu sameeyey laba boqol oo gaashaan oo waaweyn oo dahab la tumay ah, oo gaashaan weynba waxaa galay lix boqol oo sheqel oo dahab la tumay ah.
King Solomon made two hundred shields of hammered gold. Each shield required six hundred shekels of hammered gold.
16 Oo haddana wuxuu kaloo sameeyey saddex boqol oo gaashaan oo yaryar oo dahab la tumay ah, oo gaashaan yarba waxaa galay saddex boqol oo sheqel oo dahab ah; markaasaa boqorku iyagii dhigay gurigii ku yiil kaynta Lubnaan.
He also made three hundred small shields of hammered gold. Each of these shields required three hundred gold coins. The king placed them in the Palace of the Forest of Lebanon.
17 Oo weliba boqorku wuxuu kaloo sameeyey carshi weyn oo foolmaroodi ah, oo wuxuu ku dahaadhay dahab saafi ah.
The king also made a great throne of ivory, and covered it with pure gold.
18 Carshigu wuxuu lahaa jaranjaro lix tallaabo ah; oo waxaa la jiray cagodhig dahab ah oo carshiga ku xidhan, oo kursiga meeshii lagu fadhiisto labadeeda dhinacba waxay lahayd meelo xusullada la saarto, oo meelaha xusullada la saartana dhinacooda waxaa taagnaa laba libaax.
The throne had six steps, with a golden footstool attached. There were armrests on both sides of the seat, with lions standing beside the armrests.
19 Oo jaranjaradii lixdeedii tallaabo labadooda dhinac waxaa ka taagnaa laba iyo toban libaax, oo boqortooyona saas oo kale looguma samayn.
Twelve lions stood on the six steps, one on opposite ends of each step. Nothing like this had ever been made for any kingdom.
20 Oo Boqor Sulaymaan weelashiisii wax lagu cabbi jiray oo dhammu waxay wada ahaayeen dahab, gurigii kaynta Lubnaan weelashiisii oo dhammuna waxay wada ahaayeen dahab saafi ah; wakhtigii Sulaymaan lacag waxba qiimo ma lahayn.
All of King Solomon's drinking cups were gold, and all the utensils of the Palace of the Forest of Lebanon were pure gold. No silver was used, because it was not valued in the days of Solomon.
21 Maxaa yeelay, boqorku wuxuu lahaa doonniyo Tarshiish u dhoofa oo waxay raaceen addoommadii Xuuraam, oo saddexdii sannadoodba mar bay doonniyihii Tarshiish iman jireen, oo waxay keeni jireen dahab, iyo lacag, iyo foolmaroodi, iyo daayeerro, iyo daa'uusyo.
The king had a fleet of ships from Tarshish crewed by Hiram's sailors. Once every three years the ships of Tarshish would arrive with a cargo of gold, silver, ivory, apes, and peacocks.
22 Sidaasuu Boqor Sulaymaan xagga maalka iyo xagga xigmaddaba ugaga hor maray boqorradii dunida oo dhan.
King Solomon was greater than any other king on earth in wealth and wisdom.
23 Oo boqorradii dunida oo dhammuna waxay doondooneen Sulaymaan inay arkaan oo ay maqlaan xigmaddii Ilaah qalbigiisa geliyey.
All the kings of the earth wanted to meet Solomon to hear the wisdom that God had placed in his mind.
24 Oo nin waluba wuxuu sannad kasta u keeni jiray hadiyaddiis oo ay ka mid yihiin weelal lacag ah, iyo weelal dahab ah, iyo dhar, iyo hub, iyo uunsi, iyo fardo, iyo baqlo.
Year after year, every visitor would bring gifts—articles of silver and gold, clothes, weapons, spices, horses, and mules.
25 Sulaymaanna wuxuu lahaa afar kun oo xero oo fardaha iyo gaadhifardoodka lagu xereeyo, iyo laba iyo toban kun oo nin oo fardooley ah, oo wuxuu fadhiisiyey magaalooyinkii gaadhifardoodka, oo qaarna boqorkay Yeruusaalem la joogeen.
Solomon had four thousand stalls for horses and chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen. He kept them in the chariot towns, and also with him in Jerusalem.
26 Oo wuxuu u wada talin jiray kulli boqorradii joogay Webiga ilaa dalka reer Falastiin iyo ilaa soohdinta Masar.
He ruled over all the kings from the Euphrates River to the land of the Philistines, and to the border with Egypt.
27 Oo boqorku wuxuu lacag Yeruusaalem kaga dhigay sida dhagaxyo oo kale, oo geedo kedar ahna wuxuu u soo badiyey oo ka dhigay sida geedaha darayga ah oo dhulka hoose ka baxa oo kale.
The king made silver as plentiful in Jerusalem as stones, and cedar wood as plentiful as sycamore-figs in the foothills.
28 Oo Sulaymaanna fardo waxaa looga keeni jiray Masar iyo dalalka kale oo dhanba.
Solomon's horses were imported from Egypt and from many other lands.
29 Haddaba Sulaymaan falimihiisii kale intii hore iyo intii dambeba sow kuma qorna taariikhdii Nebi Naataan, iyo wax sii sheegiddii Axiiyaah kii reer Shiiloh, iyo waxyaalihii la tusay Iddo oo wax arke ahaa oo ku saabsanaa Yaaraabcaam ina Nebaad?
The rest of the acts of Solomon, from start to finish, are written in the Records of Nathan the Prophet, in the Prophecy of Ahijah the Shilonite, and in the Visions of Iddo the Seer about Jeroboam, son of Nebat.
30 Oo Sulaymaan afartan sannadood ayuu reer binu Israa'iil oo dhan Yeruusaalem boqor ugu ahaa.
Solomon ruled in Jerusalem over all of Israel for forty years.
31 Sulaymaanna wuu dhintay oo la seexday awowayaashiis oo waxaa lagu aasay magaaladii aabbihiis Daa'uud, oo meeshiisiina waxaa boqor ka noqday wiilkiisii Rexabcaam.
Then Solomon died and was buried in the city of his father David. His son Rehoboam took over as king.
