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.
Царица же Савска услыша имя Соломоново и прииде искусити его гаданьми во Иерусалиме с силою тяжкою зело: и велблюды носящии ароматы и злата множество и камения драгаго: и прииде к Соломону и глагола ему вся, елика беша в сердцы ея.
2 And Solomon gave her answers to all her questions; there was no secret which he did not make clear to her.
И возвести ей Соломон вся словеса ея, и не прейде слово, егоже бы не возвестил ей.
3 And when the queen of Sheba had seen the wisdom of Solomon, and the house which he had made,
И виде царица Савска премудрость Соломоню, и дом егоже созда,
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.
и яди столов его, и седалища рабов его, и состояние служебников его и ризы их, и виночерпчия его и украшение их, и всесожжения, яже жряше в дому Господни, и вне себе бысть.
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.
Рече же ко царю: истинно есть слово, еже слышах в земли моей о словесех твоих и о премудрости твоей:
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.
и не веровах словесем их, дондеже приидох, и видеста очи мои, и се, не возвестиша мне половины множества премудрости твоея: приложил еси ко слышанию яже слышах:
7 Happy are your wives and happy these your servants whose place is ever before you, hearing your words of wisdom.
блажени мужие твои и блажени раби твои сии, иже предстоят пред тобою на всяко время и слышат премудрость твою:
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.
да будет Господь Бог твой благословен, иже благоволи в тебе, еже дати тя на престол Свой царя Господу Богу твоему: зане возлюби Господь Бог твой Израиля, еже утвердити его во век, и постави тя над ними царя, да сотвориши суд и правду.
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.
Даде же царю сто двадесять талант злата и ароматы многи зело и камение драгое, и не быша ароматы таковы яко сия, яже даде царица Савска царю Соломону.
10 And the servants of Huram and the servants of Solomon, in addition to gold from Ophir, came back with sandal-wood and jewels.
Но и раби Хирамовы с рабы Соломоними приношаху злато Соломону драгое.
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.
И сотвори Соломон царь от древ певговых степени в дом Господень и в дом царев, и гусли и псалтири песней, и никогдаже видена быша в земли Иудине прежде такоая.
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.
Царь же Соломон даде царице Савстей вся по желанию ея, ихже просила, кроме всех яже принесе царю Соломону, и возвратися в землю свою.
13 Now the weight of gold which came to Solomon in one year was six hundred and sixty-six talents;
Бе же вес злата приносимаго к Соломону на всяко лето шесть сот шестьдесят шесть талант злата,
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.
кроме мужей подданных и купцов, иже приношаху, и всех царей Аравских и властелей земли, иже вси приношаху злато и сребро царю Соломону.
15 And King Solomon made two hundred body-covers of hammered gold, every one having six hundred shekels of gold in it.
Сотвори убо царь Соломон двести щитов златых тягненых, шесть сот златник чистых бяху во единем щите:
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.
и триста щитов златых тягненых, по триста златник бяше во единем коемждо щите, и положи я царь в дому древа Ливанова.
17 Then the king made a great ivory seat, plated with the best gold.
Сотвори же царь престол от слоновых зубов велик, и позлати его златом чистым,
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.
и шесть степений у престола позлащени златом, и мышчицы две туду и сюду над престолом седалища, и два льва стояща близ мышчцей,
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.
и дванадесять львов стоящих тамо на шести степенех от обоих стран: и не бысть таков престол во всяцем царстве.
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.
Вси же сосуди царя Соломона бяху златы, и вси сосуди дому дубравы Ливанския златом окружены, сребро бо во днех Соломоних ни во что вменяшеся:
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.
зане корабль царев хождаше в Фарсис с рабы Хирамовыми, единицею в лета три прихождаше корабль от Фарсиса ко царю, полн злата и сребра и зубов слоновых и обезян.
22 And King Solomon was greater than all the kings of the earth in wealth and in wisdom.
И возвеличися Соломон паче всех царей земных богатством и мудростию.
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.
Вси же царие земстии желаху видети лице Соломоне и слышати премудрость его, юже даде Бог в сердце его:
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.
и приношаху ему кийждо дары своя, сосуды сребряны и златы, и одеяния и стакту, и сладости, кони и мски, на всякое лето.
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.
И бяху царю Соломону четыредесять тысящ кобылиц к колесницы и дванадесять тысящ конник, и постави их во градех колесничных и со царем во Иерусалиме.
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.
И быть вождь всех царей от реки (Евфрата) даже до земли иноплеменник и даже до предел Египетских.
27 The king made silver as common as stones in Jerusalem and cedars like the sycamore-trees of the lowlands in number.
И даде царь злато и сребро во Иерусалиме яко камение, и кедры яко черничие, еже (раждается) в полях множество.
28 They got horses for Solomon from Egypt and from every land.
И приводяху кони Соломону от Египта и от всея земли.
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?
И прочая словеса Соломоня первая и последняя, се, сия писана суть в словесех Нафана пророка и в словесех Ахии Силониты и в видениих Иоиля видящаго, противу Иеровоама сына Наватова.
30 Solomon was king over Israel in Jerusalem for forty years.
И царствова Соломон во Иерусалиме над всем Израилем четыредесять лет.
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.
И успе Соломон со отцы своими, и погребоша его во граде Давида отца его. И воцарися Ровоам сын его вместо его.
