وَكَانَ ٱلْمَلِكُ سُلَيْمَانُ مَلِكًا عَلَى جَمِيعِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. ١ 1
King Solomon was king over all Israel.
وَهَؤُلَاءِ هُمُ ٱلرُّؤَسَاءُ ٱلَّذِينَ لَهُ: عَزَرْيَاهُو بْنُ صَادُوقَ ٱلْكَاهِنِ، ٢ 2
These were his officials: Azariah son of Zadok was the priest.
وَأَلِيحُورَفُ وَأَخِيَّا ٱبْنَا شِيشَا كَاتِبَانِ. وَيَهُوشَافَاطُ بْنُ أَخِيلُودَ ٱلْمُسَجِّلُ، ٣ 3
Elihoreph and Ahijah sons of Shisha, were secretaries. Jehoshaphat son of Ahilud was the recorder.
وَبَنَايَاهُو بْنُ يَهُويَادَاعَ عَلَى ٱلْجَيْشِ، وَصَادُوقُ وَأَبِيَاثَارُ كَاهِنَانِ. ٤ 4
Benaiah son of Jehoiada was over the army. Zadok and Abiathar were priests.
وَعَزَرْيَاهُو بْنُ نَاثَانَ عَلَى ٱلْوُكَلَاءِ، وَزَابُودُ بْنُ نَاثَانَ كَاهِنٌ وَصَاحِبُ ٱلْمَلِكِ. ٥ 5

Ahishar was over the household. Adoniram son of Abda was over the men who were subjected to forced labor.
وَكَانَ لِسُلَيْمَانَ ٱثْنَا عَشَرَ وَكِيلًا عَلَى جَمِيعِ إِسْرَائِيلَ يَمْتَارُونَ لِلْمَلِكِ وَبَيْتِهِ. كَانَ عَلَى ٱلْوَاحِدِ أَنْ يَمْتَارَ شَهْرًا فِي ٱلسَّنَةِ. ٧ 7
Solomon had twelve officers over all Israel, who provided food for the king and his household. Each man had to make provision for one month in the year.
وَهَذِهِ أَسْمَاؤُهُمُ: ٱبْنُ حُورَ فِي جَبَلِ أَفْرَايِمَ. ٨ 8
These were their names: Ben-Hur, in the hill country of Ephraim;

and Geber son of Uri, in the land of Gilead, the country of Sihon king of the Amorites and of Og king of Bashan, and he was the only official who was in the land.
وَكَانَ يَهُوذَا وَإِسْرَائِيلُ كَثِيرِينَ كَٱلرَّمْلِ ٱلَّذِي عَلَى ٱلْبَحْرِ فِي ٱلْكَثْرَةِ. يَأْكُلُونَ وَيَشْرَبُونَ وَيَفْرَحُونَ. ٢٠ 20
Judah and Israel were as numerous as the sand by the sea. They were eating and drinking and were happy.
وَكَانَ سُلَيْمَانُ مُتَسَلِّطًا عَلَى جَمِيعِ ٱلْمَمَالِكِ مِنَ ٱلنَّهْرِ إِلَى أَرْضِ فِلِسْطِينَ، وَإِلَى تُخُومِ مِصْرَ. كَانُوا يُقَدِّمُونَ ٱلْهَدَايَا وَيَخْدِمُونَ سُلَيْمَانَ كُلَّ أَيَّامِ حَيَاتِهِ. ٢١ 21
Solomon ruled over all the kingdoms from the River to the land of the Philistines and to the border of Egypt. They brought tribute and served Solomon all the days of his life.
وَكَانَ طَعَامُ سُلَيْمَانَ لِلْيَوْمِ ٱلْوَاحِدِ: ثَلَاثِينَ كُرَّ سَمِيذٍ، وَسِتِّينَ كُرَّ دَقِيقٍ، ٢٢ 22
Solomon's provision for one day was thirty cors of fine flour and sixty cors of meal,
وَعَشْرَةَ ثِيرَانٍ مُسَمَّنَةٍ، وَعِشْرِينَ ثَوْرًا مِنَ ٱلْمَرَاعِي، وَمِئَةَ خَرُوفٍ، مَا عَدَا ٱلْأَيَائِلَ وَٱلظِّبَاءَ وَٱلْيَحَامِيرَ وَٱلْإِوَزَّ ٱلْمُسَمَّنَ. ٢٣ 23
ten fat oxen, twenty oxen out of the pastures, and one hundred sheep, besides deer, gazelles, roebucks, and fattened fowl.
لِأَنَّهُ كَانَ مُتَسَلِّطًا عَلَى كُلِّ مَا عَبْرَ ٱلنَّهْرِ مِنْ تَفْسَحَ إِلَى غَزَّةَ، عَلَى كُلِّ مُلُوكِ عَبْرِ ٱلنَّهْرِ، وَكَانَ لَهُ صُلْحٌ مِنْ جَمِيعِ جَوَانِبِهِ حَوَالَيْهِ. ٢٤ 24
For he had dominion over all the region on this side of the River, from Tiphsah as far as to Gaza, over all the kings on this side the River, and he had peace on all sides around him.
وَسَكَنَ يَهُوذَا وَإِسْرَائِيلُ آمِنِينَ، كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ تَحْتَ كَرْمَتِهِ وَتَحْتَ تِينَتِهِ، مِنْ دَانَ إِلَى بِئْرِ سَبْعٍ، كُلَّ أَيَّامِ سُلَيْمَانَ. ٢٥ 25
Judah and Israel lived in safety, every man under his vine and under his fig tree, from Dan to Beersheba, all the days of Solomon.
وَكَانَ لِسُلَيْمَانَ أَرْبَعُونَ أَلْفَ مِذْوَدٍ لِخَيْلِ مَرْكَبَاتِهِ، وَٱثْنَا عَشَرَ أَلْفَ فَارِسٍ. ٢٦ 26
Solomon had forty thousand stalls of horses for his chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen.
وَهَؤُلَاءِ ٱلْوُكَلَاءُ كَانُوا يَمْتَارُونَ لِلْمَلِكِ سُلَيْمَانَ وَلِكُلِّ مَنْ تَقَدَّمَ إِلَى مَائِدَةِ ٱلْمَلِكِ سُلَيْمَانَ، كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ فِي شَهْرِهِ. لَمْ يَكُونُوا يَحْتَاجُونَ إِلَى شَيْءٍ. ٢٧ 27
Those officials 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.
وَكَانُوا يَأْتُونَ بِشَعِيرٍ وَتِبْنٍ لِلْخَيْلِ وَٱلْجِيَادِ إِلَى ٱلْمَوْضِعِ ٱلَّذِي يَكُونُ فِيهِ، كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ حَسَبَ قَضَائِهِ. ٢٨ 28
They also brought to the proper place barley and straw for the chariot horses and riding horses, each one bringing in what he was able.
وَأَعْطَى ٱللهُ سُلَيْمَانَ حِكْمَةً وَفَهْمًا كَثِيرًا جِدًّا، وَرَحْبَةَ قَلْبٍ كَٱلرَّمْلِ ٱلَّذِي عَلَى شَاطِئِ ٱلْبَحْرِ. ٢٩ 29
God gave Solomon great wisdom and understanding, and wideness of understanding like the sand on the seashore.
وَفَاقَتْ حِكْمَةُ سُلَيْمَانَ حِكْمَةَ جَمِيعِ بَنِي ٱلْمَشْرِقِ وَكُلَّ حِكْمَةِ مِصْرَ. ٣٠ 30
Solomon's wisdom exceeded the wisdom of all the people of the east and all the wisdom of Egypt.
وَكَانَ أَحْكَمَ مِنْ جَمِيعِ ٱلنَّاسِ، مِنْ إِيثَانَ ٱلْأَزْرَاحِيِّ وَهَيْمَانَ وَكَلْكُولَ وَدَرْدَعَ بَنِي مَاحُولَ. وَكَانَ صِيتُهُ فِي جَمِيعِ ٱلْأُمَمِ حَوَالَيْهِ. ٣١ 31
He was wiser than all men—than Ethan the Ezrahite, Heman, Kalkol, and Darda, the sons of Mahol—and his fame reached all the surrounding nations.
وَتَكَلَّمَ بِثَلَاثَةِ آلَافِ مَثَلٍ، وَكَانَتْ نَشَائِدُهُ أَلْفًا وَخَمْسًا. ٣٢ 32
He spoke three thousand proverbs and his songs were one thousand and five in number.
وَتَكَلَّمَ عَنِ ٱلْأَشْجَارِ، مِنَ ٱلْأَرْزِ ٱلَّذِي فِي لُبْنَانَ إِلَى ٱلزُّوفَا ٱلنَّابِتِ فِي ٱلْحَائِطِ. وَتَكَلَّمَ عَنِ ٱلْبَهَائِمِ وَعَنِ ٱلطَّيْرِ وَعَنِ ٱلدَّبِيبِ وَعَنِ ٱلسَّمَكِ. ٣٣ 33
He described the plants, from the cedar that is in Lebanon to the hyssop that grows out of the wall. He explained also about beasts, birds, creeping things, and fish.
وَكَانُوا يَأْتُونَ مِنْ جَمِيعِ ٱلشُّعُوبِ لِيَسْمَعُوا حِكْمَةَ سُلَيْمَانَ، مِنْ جَمِيعِ مُلُوكِ ٱلْأَرْضِ ٱلَّذِينَ سَمِعُوا بِحِكْمَتِهِ. ٣٤ 34
People came from all the nations to hear the wisdom of Solomon. They came from all kings of the earth who had heard of his wisdom.
