1 Wafalme 10
1 Malkia wa Sheba aliposikia habari za umaarufu wa Solomoni na uhusiano wake na jina la Bwana, akaja kumjaribu kwa maswali magumu.
and Queen (of Sheba) Sheba to hear: hear [obj] report Solomon to/for name LORD and to come (in): come to/for to test him in/on/with riddle
2 Alifika Yerusalemu akiwa na msafara mkubwa sana: pamoja na ngamia waliobeba vikolezi, kiasi kikubwa cha dhahabu na vito vya thamani; alikuja kwa Solomoni na kuzungumza naye kuhusu yote ambayo alikuwa nayo moyoni mwake.
and to come (in): come Jerusalem [to] in/on/with strength: rich heavy much camel to lift: bear spice and gold many much and stone precious and to come (in): come to(wards) Solomon and to speak: speak to(wards) him [obj] all which to be with heart her
3 Solomoni akamjibu maswali yake yote, hakukuwa na jambo lolote lililokuwa gumu kwa mfalme asiweze kumwelezea.
and to tell to/for her Solomon [obj] all word: thing her not to be word: thing to conceal from [the] king which not to tell to/for her
4 Malkia wa Sheba alipoona hekima yote ya Solomoni na jumba la kifalme alilokuwa amejenga,
and to see: see Queen (of Sheba) Sheba [obj] all wisdom Solomon and [the] house: palace which to build
5 chakula kilichokuwa mezani pake, jinsi maafisa wake walivyokaa, wahudumu katika majoho yao, wanyweshaji wake na sadaka za kuteketezwa alizotoa katika hekalu la Bwana, alipatwa na mshangao.
and food table his and seat servant/slave his and office (to minister him *Q(K)*) and garment their and cupbearer his and burnt offering his which to ascend: offer up house: temple LORD and not to be in/on/with her still spirit: breath
6 Akamwambia mfalme, “Taarifa niliyosikia kwenye nchi yangu mwenyewe kuhusu mafanikio na hekima yako ni kweli.
and to say to(wards) [the] king truth: true to be [the] word which to hear: hear in/on/with land: country/planet my upon word your and upon wisdom your
7 Lakini sikuamini mambo haya hadi nilipokuja na kuona kwa macho yangu mwenyewe. Naam, sikuambiwa hata nusu yake; katika hekima na mali umezidi sana ile taarifa niliyoisikia.
and not be faithful to/for word till which to come (in): come and to see: see eye my and behold not to tell to/for me [the] half to add wisdom and good to(wards) [the] tidings which to hear: hear
8 Heri watu wako! Heri hawa maafisa wako wasimamao mbele yako daima na kusikia hekima yako!
blessed human your blessed servant/slave your these [the] to stand: stand to/for face: before your continually [the] to hear: hear [obj] wisdom your
9 Ahimidiwe Bwana Mungu wako, ambaye amependezwa sana nawe na kukuweka juu ya kiti cha ufalme cha Israeli. Kwa sababu ya upendo wake Bwana wa milele ajili ya Israeli, amekufanya mfalme, ili kudumisha haki na uadilifu.”
to be LORD God your to bless which to delight in in/on/with you to/for to give: put you upon throne Israel in/on/with to love: lover LORD [obj] Israel to/for forever: enduring and to set: make you to/for king to/for to make: do justice and righteousness
10 Naye akampa mfalme talanta 120 za dhahabu, kiasi kikubwa sana cha vikolezi na vito vya thamani. Haikuwahi kamwe kuletwa tena vikolezi vingi hivyo kuletwa kama vile malkia wa Sheba alivyompa Mfalme Solomoni.
and to give: give to/for king hundred and twenty talent gold and spice to multiply much and stone precious not to come (in): come like/as spice [the] he/she/it still to/for abundance which to give: give Queen (of Sheba) Sheba to/for king Solomon
11 (Meli za Hiramu zilileta dhahabu kutoka Ofiri; tena kutoka huko zilileta shehena kubwa ya miti ya msandali na vito vya thamani.
and also fleet Hiram which to lift: bear gold from Ophir to come (in): bring from Ophir tree: wood almug to multiply much and stone precious
12 Mfalme akatumia miti ya msandali kuwa nguzo ya Hekalu la Bwana na kwa jumba la kifalme, pia kwa kutengeneza vinubi na zeze kwa ajili ya waimbaji. Kiasi hicho kingi cha msandali hakijawahi kuingizwa au kuonekana humo tangu siku ile.)
and to make [the] king [obj] tree: wood [the] almug support to/for house: temple LORD and to/for house: palace [the] king and lyre and harp to/for to sing not to come (in): come so tree: wood almug and not to see: see till [the] day: today [the] this
13 Mfalme Solomoni akampa malkia wa Sheba kila kitu alichotamani na kukiomba, kando na vile mfalme alivyokuwa amempa kwa ukarimu wake wa kifalme. Kisha malkia akaondoka na kurudi katika nchi yake, yeye na watumishi wake.
and [the] king Solomon to give: give to/for Queen (of Sheba) Sheba [obj] all pleasure her which to ask from to/for alone: besides which to give: give to/for her like/as hand: power [the] king Solomon and to turn and to go: went to/for land: country/planet her he/she/it and servant/slave her
14 Uzito wa dhahabu ambayo Solomoni alipokea kwa mwaka ulikuwa talanta 666,
and to be weight [the] gold which to come (in): come to/for Solomon in/on/with year one six hundred sixty and six talent gold
15 mbali na mapato kutoka kwa wafanyabiashara na wachuuzi, na kutoka kwa wafalme wote wa Kiarabu na watawala wa nchi.
to/for alone from human [the] to spy and merchandise [the] to trade and all king [the] Arabia and governor [the] land: country/planet
16 Mfalme Solomoni akatengeneza ngao kubwa 200 kwa dhahabu iliyofuliwa; kila ngao ilikuwa na dhahabu yenye uzito wa shekeli 600
and to make [the] king Solomon hundred shield gold beaten six hundred gold to ascend: rise upon [the] shield [the] one
17 Akatengeneza pia ngao ndogo 300 za dhahabu iliyofuliwa, kila ngao ikiwa na uzito wa mane tatu za dhahabu. Mfalme akaziweka katika Jumba la Kifalme la Msitu wa Lebanoni.
and three hundred shield gold beaten three mina gold to ascend: rise upon [the] shield [the] one and to give: put them [the] king House (of the Forests of Lebanon) (House of) the Forest [the] (House of the Forest of) Lebanon
18 Kisha mfalme akatengeneza kiti kikubwa cha kifalme kwa kutumia pembe za ndovu na kukifunika kwa dhahabu safi.
and to make [the] king throne tooth: ivory great: large and to overlay him gold be refined
19 Kiti hicho kilikuwa na ngazi sita na egemeo la nyuma lilikuwa la mviringo kwa juu. Pande zote za kiti kulikuwa na mahali pa kuegemeza mikono, na simba wawili wakisimama kando ya hiyo mikono.
six step to/for throne and head: top round to/for throne from after him and hand from this and from this to(wards) place [the] seat and two lion to stand: stand beside [the] hand
20 Simba kumi na wawili walisimama kwenye ngazi sita, mmoja katika kila upande wa kila ngazi. Hakuna kitu kama hicho kilichokuwa kimefanyika kwenye ufalme mwingine wowote.
and two ten lion to stand: stand there upon six [the] step from this and from this not to make so to/for all kingdom
21 Vikombe vyote vya Mfalme Solomoni vya kunywea vilikuwa vya dhahabu na vyombo vyote vya nyumbani katika Jumba la Kifalme la Msitu wa Lebanoni vilikuwa vya dhahabu safi. Hakukuwa na kitu kilichotengenezwa kwa fedha, kwa sababu fedha ilionekana ya thamani ndogo siku za Solomoni.
and all article/utensil irrigation [the] king Solomon gold and all article/utensil House (of the Forests of Lebanon) (House of) the Forest [the] (House of the Forest of) Lebanon gold to shut nothing silver: money not to devise: count in/on/with day Solomon to/for anything
22 Mfalme alikuwa na meli nyingi za biashara baharini zilizokuwa zikiandamana na meli za Hiramu. Kwa mara moja kila miaka mitatu zilirudi, zikiwa zimebeba dhahabu, fedha, pembe za ndovu na nyani wakubwa na wadogo.
for fleet Tarshish to/for king in/on/with sea with fleet Hiram one to/for three year to come (in): come fleet Tarshish to lift: bear gold and silver: money ivory and ape and peacock
23 Mfalme Solomoni alikuwa mkuu zaidi kwa utajiri na hekima kuliko wafalme wote wa dunia.
and to magnify [the] king Solomon from all king [the] land: country/planet to/for riches and to/for wisdom
24 Dunia yote ikatafuta kukutana na Solomoni ili kusikia hekima ambayo Mungu alikuwa ameiweka katika moyo wake.
and all [the] land: country/planet to seek [obj] face Solomon to/for to hear: hear [obj] wisdom his which to give: put God in/on/with heart his
25 Mwaka baada ya mwaka, kila mmoja ambaye alikuja alileta zawadi: vyombo vya fedha na dhahabu, majoho, silaha na vikolezi, farasi na nyumbu.
and they(masc.) to come (in): bring man: anyone offering: gift his article/utensil silver: money and article/utensil gold and garment and weapon and spice horse and mule word: thing year in/on/with year
26 Solomoni akakusanya magari ya vita na farasi. Alikuwa na magari 1,400 na farasi 12,000, ambayo aliyaweka katika miji ya magari na mengine akawa nayo huko Yerusalemu.
and to gather Solomon chariot and horseman and to be to/for him thousand and four hundred chariot and two ten thousand horseman and to lead them in/on/with city [the] chariot and with [the] king in/on/with Jerusalem
27 Mfalme akafanya fedha kuwa kitu cha kawaida kama mawe huko Yerusalemu, mierezi akaifanya kuwa mingi kama mikuyu vilimani.
and to give: make [the] king [obj] [the] silver: money in/on/with Jerusalem like/as stone and [obj] [the] cedar to give: make like/as sycamore which in/on/with Shephelah to/for abundance
28 Farasi wa Solomoni waliletwa kutoka Misri na kutoka Kue. Wafanyabiashara wa mfalme waliwanunua kutoka Kue.
and exit [the] horse which to/for Solomon from Egypt and from Kue to trade [the] king to take: recieve from Kue in/on/with price
29 Waliagiza magari kutoka Misri kwa bei ya shekeli 600 za fedha na farasi kwa shekeli 150. Pia waliwauza nje kwa wafalme wote wa Wahiti na wa Waaramu.
and to ascend: establish and to come out: send chariot from Egypt in/on/with six hundred silver: money and horse in/on/with fifty and hundred and so to/for all king [the] Hittite and to/for king Syria in/on/with hand: by their to come out: send
