2 Chronicles 9
1 Now the queen of Sheba, hearing great things of Solomon, came to Jerusalem to put his wisdom to the test with hard questions; and with her came a very great train, and camels weighted down with spices, and great stores of gold and jewels: and when she came to Solomon she had talk with him of everything in her mind.
E ouvindo a rainha de Saba a fama de Salomão, veio a Jerusalém, provar a Salomão com enigmas, com um mui grande exército, e camelos carregados de especiarias, e ouro em abundância e pedras preciosas; e veio a Salomão, e falou com ele de tudo o que tinha no seu coração.
2 And Solomon gave her answers to all her questions; there was no secret which he did not make clear to her.
E Salomão lhe declarou todas as suas palavras: e nenhuma coisa se ocultou a Salomão, que lhe não declarasse.
3 And when the queen of Sheba had seen the wisdom of Solomon, and the house which he had made,
Vendo pois a rainha de Saba a sabedoria de Salomão, e a casa que edificara;
4 And the food at his table, and all his servants seated there, and those who were waiting on him in their places, and their robes, and his wine-servants and their robes, and the burned offerings which he made in the house of the Lord, there was no more spirit in her.
E as iguarias da sua mesa, e o assentar dos seus servos, e o estar dos seus criados, e os vestidos deles; e os seus copeiros, e os vestidos deles; e a sua subida pela qual ele subia à casa do Senhor, ela ficou como fora de si.
5 And she said to the king, The account which was given to me in my country of your acts and your wisdom was true.
Então disse ao rei: Foi verdade a palavra que ouvi na minha terra acerca dos teus feitos e da tua sabedoria.
6 But I had no faith in what was said about you, till I came and saw for myself; and truly, word was not given me of half your great wisdom; you are much greater than they said.
Porém não cria as suas palavras, até que vim, e meus olhos o viram, e eis que me não disseram a metade da grandeza da tua sabedoria: sobrepujaste à fama que ouvi
7 Happy are your wives and happy these your servants whose place is ever before you, hearing your words of wisdom.
Bem-aventurados os teus homens, e bem-aventurados estes teus servos, que estão sempre diante de ti, e ouvem a tua sabedoria!
8 Praise be to the Lord your God whose pleasure it was to put you on the seat of his kingdom to be king for the Lord your God: because, in his love for Israel, it was the purpose of your God to make them strong for ever, he made you king over them, to be their judge in righteousness.
Bendito seja o Senhor teu Deus, que se agradou em ti para te pôr como rei sobre o seu trono, pelo Senhor teu Deus: porquanto teu Deus ama a Israel, para estabelece-lo perpetuamente; e poz-te por rei sobre eles, para fazeres juízo e justiça.
9 And she gave the king a hundred and twenty talents of gold, and a great store of spices and jewels: never had such spices been seen as the queen of Sheba gave to Solomon.
E deu ao rei cento e vinte talentos de ouro, e especiarias em grande abundância, e pedras preciosas: e nunca houve tais especiarias, quais a rainha de Saba deu ao rei Salomão.
10 And the servants of Huram and the servants of Solomon, in addition to gold from Ophir, came back with sandal-wood and jewels.
E também os servos de Hurão, e os servos de Salomão, que de Ophir tinham trazido ouro, trouxeram madeira de algum, e pedras preciosas.
11 And with the sandal-wood the king made steps for the house of the Lord and for the king's house, and instruments of music for the makers of melody; never before had such been seen in the land of Judah.
E fez o rei corredores de madeira de algum, para a casa do Senhor, e para a casa do rei, como também harpas e alaúdes para os cantores, quais nunca de antes se viram na terra de Judá.
12 And King Solomon gave the queen of Sheba all her desire, whatever she made request for, in addition to what she had taken to the king. So she went back to her country with her servants.
E o rei Salomão deu à rainha de Saba tudo quanto lhe agradou, e o que lhe pediu, além do que ela mesma trouxera ao rei: assim virou-se e foi para a sua terra, ela e os seus servos.
13 Now the weight of gold which came to Solomon in one year was six hundred and sixty-six talents;
E era o peso do ouro, que vinha em um ano a Salomão, seiscentos e sessenta e seis talentos de ouro,
14 And in addition to what he got from traders of different sorts, all the kings of Arabia and the rulers of the country gave gold and silver to Solomon.
A fora do que os negociantes e mercadores traziam: também todos os reis da Arábia, e os príncipes da mesma terra traziam a Salomão ouro e prata.
15 And King Solomon made two hundred body-covers of hammered gold, every one having six hundred shekels of gold in it.
Também fez Salomão duzentos pavezes de ouro batido: para cada pavez mandou pesar seiscentos siclos de ouro batido.
16 And he made three hundred smaller body-covers of hammered gold, using three hundred shekels of gold for every cover, and the king put them in the house of the Woods of Lebanon.
Como também trezentos escudos de ouro batido; para cada escudo mandou pesar trezentos siclos de ouro: e Salomão os pôs na casa do bosque do líbano.
17 Then the king made a great ivory seat, plated with the best gold.
Fez mais o rei um grande trono de marfim; e o cobriu de ouro puro.
18 There were six steps up to it, and a foot-rest of gold fixed to it, and arms on the two sides of the seat, with two lions at the side of the arms.
E o trono tinha seis degraus, e um estrado de ouro, pegado ao trono, e encostos de ambas as bandas no lugar do assento: e dois leões estavam junto aos encostos.
19 And twelve lions were placed on one side and on the other side on the six steps: there was nothing like it in any kingdom.
E doze leões estavam ali de ambas as bandas, sobre os seis degraus: outro tal se não fez em nenhum reino.
20 All King Solomon's drinking-vessels were of gold, and all the vessels of the house of the Woods of Lebanon were of the best gold: no one gave a thought to silver in the days of Solomon.
Também todos os vasos de beber do rei Salomão eram de ouro, e todos os vasos da casa do bosque do líbano, de ouro puro: a prata reputava-se por nada nos dias de Salomão.
21 For the king had Tarshish-ships sailing with the servants of Huram: once every three years the Tarshish-ships came back with gold and silver, ivory and monkeys and peacocks.
Porque, indo os navios do rei com os servos de Hurão, a Tharsis, tornavam os navios de Tharsis, uma vez em três anos, e traziam ouro e prata, marfim, e bugios, e pavões.
22 And King Solomon was greater than all the kings of the earth in wealth and in wisdom.
Assim excedeu o rei Salomão todos os reis da terra, em riqueza e sabedoria.
23 And all the kings of the earth came to see Solomon and to give ear to his wisdom, which God had put into his heart.
E todos os reis da terra procuravam ver o rosto de Salomão, para ouvirem a sua sabedoria, que Deus lhe dera no seu coração.
24 And everyone took with him an offering, vessels of silver and vessels of gold, and robes, and coats of metal, and spices, and horses and beasts for transport, regularly year by year.
E eles traziam cada um o seu presente, vasos de ouro, e vestidos, armaduras, e especiarias, cavalos e mulos: cada coisa de ano em ano.
25 Solomon had four thousand buildings for his horses and his war-carriages, and twelve thousand horsemen whom he kept, some in the carriage-towns and some with the king in Jerusalem.
Teve também Salomão quatro mil estrebarias de cavalos e carros, e doze mil cavaleiros: e pô-los nas cidades dos carros, e com o rei em Jerusalém.
26 And he was ruler over all the kings from the River to the land of the Philistines, as far as the limit of Egypt.
E dominava sobre todos os reis, desde o rio até à terra dos philisteus, e até ao termo do Egito.
27 The king made silver as common as stones in Jerusalem and cedars like the sycamore-trees of the lowlands in number.
Também o rei fez que houvesse prata em Jerusalém como pedras, e cedros em tanta abundância como as figueiras bravas que há pelas campinas.
28 They got horses for Solomon from Egypt and from every land.
E do Egito e de todas aquelas terras traziam cavalos a Salomão.
29 Now the rest of the acts of Solomon, first and last, are they not recorded in the history of Nathan the prophet, and in the words of Ahijah the prophet of Shiloh, and in the visions of Iddo the seer about Jeroboam, the son of Nebat?
Os mais sucessos pois de Salomão, tanto os primeiros como os últimos, porventura não estão escritos no livro das falas de Nathan, o profeta, e na profecia d'Ahias, o silonita, e nas visões de Iddo, o vidente, acerca de Jeroboão, filho de Nebat
30 Solomon was king over Israel in Jerusalem for forty years.
E reinou Salomão em Jerusalém quarenta anos sobre todo o Israel.
31 And Solomon went to rest with his fathers, and was put into the earth in the town of David his father; and Rehoboam his son became king in his place.
E dormiu Salomão com seus pais, e o sepultaram na cidade de David seu pai: e Roboão, seu filho, reinou em seu lugar.
