1 Kings 10
1 When the queen of Sheba heard of the fame of Solomon concerning the name of the LORD, she came to prove him with hard questions.
sed et regina Saba audita fama Salomonis in nomine Domini venit temptare eum in enigmatibus
2 She came to Jerusalem with a very great train, with camels that bore spices, and very much gold, and precious stones; and when she had come to Solomon, she talked with him of all that was in her heart.
et ingressa Hierusalem multo comitatu et divitiis camelis portantibus aromata et aurum infinitum nimis et gemmas pretiosas venit ad Salomonem et locuta est ei universa quae habebat in corde suo
3 Solomon told her all her questions: there was not anything hidden from the king which he did not tell her.
et docuit eam Salomon omnia verba quae proposuerat non fuit sermo qui regem posset latere et non responderet ei
4 When the queen of Sheba had seen all the wisdom of Solomon, and the house that he had built,
videns autem regina Saba omnem sapientiam Salomonis et domum quam aedificaverat
5 and the food of his table, and the sitting of his servants, and the attendance of his ministers, and their clothing, and his cup bearers, and his burnt offerings which he presented at the house of the LORD; it left her breathless.
et cibos mensae eius et habitacula servorum et ordinem ministrantium vestesque eorum et pincernas et holocausta quae offerebat in domo Domini non habebat ultra spiritum
6 She said to the king, "It was a true report that I heard in my own land of your acts, and of your wisdom.
dixitque ad regem verus est sermo quem audivi in terra mea
7 However I did not believe the words, until I came, and my eyes had seen it. Look, the half was not told me. Your wisdom and prosperity exceed the fame which I heard.
super sermonibus tuis et super sapientia tua et non credebam narrantibus mihi donec ipsa veni et vidi oculis meis et probavi quod media pars mihi nuntiata non fuerit maior est sapientia et opera tua quam rumor quem audivi
8 Happy are your wives, happy are these your servants, who stand continually before you, who hear your wisdom.
beati viri tui et beati servi tui hii qui stant coram te semper et audiunt sapientiam tuam
9 Blessed is the LORD your God, who delighted in you, to set you on the throne of Israel. Because of the LORD's everlasting love for Israel, therefore he made you king, to do justice and righteousness."
sit Dominus Deus tuus benedictus cui placuisti et posuit te super thronum Israhel eo quod dilexerit Dominus Israhel in sempiternum et constituit te regem ut faceres iudicium et iustitiam
10 She gave the king one hundred twenty talents of gold, and of spices very great store, and precious stones. There came no more such abundance of spices as these which the queen of Sheba gave to king Solomon.
dedit ergo regi centum viginti talenta auri et aromata multa nimis et gemmas pretiosas non sunt adlata ultra aromata tam multa quam ea quae dedit regina Saba regi Salomoni
11 The navy also of Hiram, that brought gold from Ophir, brought in from Ophir great plenty of almug trees and precious stones.
sed et classis Hiram quae portabat aurum de Ophir adtulit ex Ophir ligna thyina multa nimis et gemmas pretiosas
12 The king made of the almug trees pillars for the house of the LORD, and for the king's house, harps also and stringed instruments for the singers: there came no such almug trees, nor were seen, to this day.
fecitque rex de lignis thyinis fulchra domus Domini et domus regiae et citharas lyrasque cantoribus non sunt adlata huiuscemodi ligna thyina neque visa usque in praesentem diem
13 King Solomon gave to the queen of Sheba all her desire, whatever she asked, besides that which Solomon gave her of his royal bounty. So she turned, and went to her own land, she and her servants.
rex autem Salomon dedit reginae Saba omnia quae voluit et petivit ab eo exceptis his quae ultro obtulerat ei munere regio quae reversa est et abiit in terram suam cum servis suis
14 Now the weight of gold that came to Solomon in one year was six hundred sixty-six talents of gold,
erat autem pondus auri quod adferebatur Salomoni per annos singulos sescentorum sexaginta sex talentorum auri
15 besides that which the traders brought, and the traffic of the merchants, and of all the kings of Arabia, and of the governors of the country.
excepto eo quod offerebant viri qui super vectigalia erant et negotiatores universique scruta vendentes et omnes reges Arabiae ducesque terrae
16 King Solomon made two hundred large shields of beaten gold; six hundred shekels of gold went to each shield.
fecit quoque rex Salomon ducenta scuta de auro puro sescentos auri siclos dedit in lamminas scuti unius
17 He made three hundred shields of beaten gold; three minas of gold went to one shield: and the king put them in the house of the forest of Lebanon.
et trecentas peltas ex auro probato trecentae minae auri unam peltam vestiebant posuitque ea rex in domo silvae Libani
18 Moreover the king made a great throne of ivory, and overlaid it with the finest gold.
fecit etiam rex Salomon thronum de ebore grandem et vestivit eum auro fulvo nimis
19 There were six steps to the throne, and the top of the throne was round behind; and there were stays on either side by the place of the seat, and two lions standing beside the stays.
qui habebat sex gradus et summitas throni rotunda erat in parte posteriori et duae manus hinc atque inde tenentes sedile et duo leones stabant iuxta manus singulas
20 Twelve lions stood there on the one side and on the other on the six steps: there was nothing like it made in any kingdom.
et duodecim leunculi stantes super sex gradus hinc atque inde non est factum tale opus in universis regnis
21 And all king Solomon's drinking vessels were of gold, and washing vessels were of gold, and all the vessels of the house of the forest of Lebanon were of pure gold. None were of silver; it was not considered anything in the days of Solomon.
sed et omnia vasa de quibus potabat rex Salomon erant aurea et universa supellex domus saltus Libani de auro purissimo non erat argentum nec alicuius pretii putabatur in diebus Salomonis
22 For the king had at sea a navy of Tarshish with the navy of Hiram: once every three years came the navy of Tarshish, bringing gold, and silver, ivory, and apes, and peacocks.
quia classis regis per mare cum classe Hiram semel per tres annos ibat in Tharsis deferens inde aurum et argentum dentes elefantorum et simias et pavos
23 So king Solomon exceeded all the kings of the earth in riches and in wisdom.
magnificatus est ergo rex Salomon super omnes reges terrae divitiis et sapientia
24 All the earth sought the presence of Solomon, to hear his wisdom, which God had put in his heart.
et universa terra desiderabat vultum Salomonis ut audiret sapientiam eius quam dederat Deus in corde eius
25 They brought every man his tribute, vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and clothing, and armor, and spices, horses, and mules, a rate year by year.
et singuli deferebant ei munera vasa argentea et aurea vestes et arma bellica aromata quoque et equos et mulos per annos singulos
26 Solomon gathered together chariots and horsemen: and he had a thousand and four hundred chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen, that he bestowed in the chariot cities, and with the king at Jerusalem.
congregavitque Salomon currus et equites et facti sunt ei mille quadringenti currus et duodecim milia equitum et disposuit eos per civitates munitas et cum rege in Hierusalem
27 The king made silver to be in Jerusalem as stones, and cedars made he to be as the sycamore trees that are in the lowland, for abundance.
fecitque ut tanta esset abundantia argenti in Hierusalem quanta lapidum et cedrorum praebuit multitudinem quasi sycomoros quae nascuntur in campestribus
28 The horses which Solomon had were brought out of Egypt and Kue; and the king's merchants received them from Kue at a price.
et educebantur equi Salomoni de Aegypto et de Coa negotiatores enim regis emebant de Coa et statuto pretio perducebant
29 And came up and went out of Egypt a chariot for six hundred pieces of silver, and a horse for one hundred fifty; and so for all the kings of the Hittites, and for the kings of Aram, they brought them out by their means.
egrediebatur autem quadriga ex Aegypto sescentis siclis argenti et equus centum quinquaginta atque in hunc modum cuncti reges Hettheorum et Syriae equos venundabant
