Третья книга Царств 10

1 И царица Савска услыша имя Соломоне и имя Господне, и прииде искусити его притчами:

And the queen of Sheba heard of the fame of Solomon in connection with the name of Jehovah, and came to prove him with enigmas.

2 и прииде во Иерусалим с силою тяжкою зело: и на велблюдех привезоша ароматы и злата много зело, и камение драгое: и вниде к Соломону и глагола ему вся, елика име на сердцы своем.

And she came to Jerusalem with a very great train, with camels that bore spices and gold in very great abundance, and precious stones; and she came to Solomon, and spoke to him of all that was in her heart.

3 И возвести ей Соломон вся глаголы ея: и не бе слово презрено от царя, егоже не возвести ей.

And Solomon explained to her all she spoke of: there was not a thing hidden from the king that he did not explain to her.

4 И виде царица Савска весь смысл Соломонь и дом егоже созда,

And when the queen of Sheba saw all Solomon's wisdom, and the house that he had built,

5 и снеди Соломони, и жилища отроков его, и предстояние служащих ему, и облачение его, и виночерпцы его, и всесожжения его, яже приношаше во храме Господни, и вне себе бысть,

and the food of his table, and the deportment of his servants, and the order of service of his attendants, and their apparel, and his cupbearers, and his ascent by which he went up to the house of Jehovah, there was no more spirit in her.

6 и рече к Соломону царю: истинна суть словеса, яже слышах в земли моей,

And she said to the king, It was a true report that I heard in mine own land of thine affairs, and of thy wisdom;

7 о словесех твоих и о смысле твоем: и не ях веры глаголющым ми, дондеже приидох семо, и видеста очи мои: и се, несть ни пол того, якоже ми поведаша: приложил еси премудрость и благая к сим паче всякаго слуха, егоже слышах в земли моей:

but I gave no credit to the words, until I came and mine eyes had seen; and behold, the half was not told me: in wisdom and prosperity thou exceedest the report that I heard.

8 блаженны жены твоя, блажени отроцы твои сии, иже предстоят пред тобою всегда, слышаще всякий смысл твой:

Happy are thy men! happy are these thy servants, who stand continually before thee, who hear thy wisdom!

9 буди Господь Бог твой благословен, иже восхоте тя дати на престол Израилев, понеже возлюби Господь Израиля утвердити во веки и постави тя царя над ними творити суд в правде и в судбах их.

Blessed be Jehovah thy God, who delighted in thee, to set thee on the throne of Israel! Because Jehovah loves Israel for ever, therefore did he make thee king, to do judgment and justice.

10 И даде Соломону сто и двадесять талант злата, и ароматы многи зело, и камение драгое: не приидоша еще таковыя ароматы во множестве, яже даде царица Савска царю Соломону.

And she gave the king a hundred and twenty talents of gold, and spices in very great abundance, and precious stones: there came no more such abundance of spices as those which the queen of Sheba gave to king Solomon.

11 И корабль Хирамль приносящь злато из Софира, (и) принесе древа нетесана многа зело, и камение драгое.

(And the fleet also of Hiram, which carried gold from Ophir, brought from Ophir sandal-wood in very great abundance, and precious stones.

12 И сотвори царь древом нетесаным подпоры храму Господню и дому цареву, и сопели и гусли певцем: не приидоша по сем таковая древеса нетесаная на земли, ниже видена быша где даже до дне сего.

And the king made of the sandal-wood a balustrade for the house of Jehovah, and for the king's house, and harps and lutes for the singers. There came no such sandal-wood, nor was there seen to this day.)

13 И царь Соломон даде царице Савстей вся, елика восхоте и елики проси у него, кроме всех, яже даде ей рукама своима Соломон царь, и возвратися, и отиде в землю свою, сама и вси отроцы ея.

And king Solomon gave to the queen of Sheba all her desire, whatever she asked, besides what he gave her of the bounty of king Solomon. And she turned and went to her own land, she and her servants.

14 И бе вес принесеннаго злата Соломону во едино лето шесть сот и шестьдесят и шесть талант злата,

And the weight of gold that came to Solomon in one year was six hundred and sixty-six talents of gold,

15 кроме даней от подданных и от купцов и от всех царей странных и от воевод земных.

besides what [came] by the dealers, and by the traffic of the merchants, and by all the kings of Arabia, and by the governors of the country.

16 И сотвори царь Соломон триста копий златых кованных, по триста златых во едино копие вдела:

And king Solomon made two hundred targets of beaten gold, — he applied six hundred [shekels] of gold to one target;

17 и триста щитов кованных златых, по три литры злата бяше на коемждо щите: и даде я царь во храм дубравы Ливанския.

and three hundred shields of beaten gold, — he applied three minas of gold to one shield; and the king put them in the house of the forest of Lebanon.

18 И сотвори царь престол от костей слоновых велий и позлати его златом искушеным:

And the king made a great throne of ivory, and overlaid it with refined gold:

19 шесть степеней престолу, и образы телцов престолу созади, и верх престола кругл бе созади его, и руце сюду и сюду на престоле седалища, и два льва стояща при руках,

the throne had six steps, and the top of the throne was rounded behind; and there were arms on each side at the place of the seat, and two lions stood beside the arms;

20 и дванадесять львы стояще ту на шести степенех сюду и сюду: не бяше тако во всяком царстве.

and twelve lions stood there on the one side and on the other upon the six steps: there was not the like made in any kingdom.

21 И вси сосуди, иже бяху при царе Соломоне, злати беша, и умывалницы златы и вси сосуди в храме дубравы Ливанския златокованны: не бяше сребра, понеже за ничто бе сребро во дни Соломони:

And all king Solomon's drinking vessels were of gold, and all the vessels of the house of the forest of Lebanon were of precious gold: none were of silver, [which] was not of the least account in the days of Solomon.

22 корабль бо Фарсийский царю Соломону на мори с корабли Хирамлими, единою во триех летех прихождаше цареви корабль из Фарсиса и приношаше злато и сребро, и зубы слоновы, и пифики и павы, и камение точеное и тесаное.

For the king had on the sea a Tarshish-fleet, with the fleet of Hiram: once in three years came the Tarshish-fleet, bringing gold and silver, ivory, and apes, and peacocks.

23 И возвеличися Соломон паче всех царей земных и богатством и смыслом.

And king Solomon was greater than all the kings of the earth in riches and in wisdom.

24 И вси царие земстии искаху видети лице Соломона, еже бы услышати смысла его, егоже даде ему Господь в сердцы его:

And all the earth sought the presence of Solomon, to hear his wisdom, which God had put in his heart.

25 и тии приношаху кийждо дары своя, и сосуды златы и сребряны, и ризы, стакти и сладкости, и кони и мски на всякое лето.

And they brought every man his present, vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and clothing, and armour, and spices, horses and mules, a rate year by year.

26 И собра Соломон колесницы и кони, и бяху Соломону четыредесять тысящ кобылиц в колесницы, и дванадесять тысящ конных: и постави я во градех колесниц, а (друзии бяху) у царя во Иерусалиме: и бе властелин всем царем от реки и до земли иноплеменник и до предел Египта.

And Solomon gathered chariots and horsemen; and he had a thousand four hundred chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen; and he placed them in the chariot-cities, and with the king at Jerusalem.

27 И сложи царь злато и сребро во Иерусалиме якоже камение, и кедры сложи якоже черничие, еже на поли во множестве.

And the king made silver in Jerusalem as stones, and cedars made he as the sycamores that are in the lowland for abundance.

28 И привождаху Соломону кони от Египта и от Фекуя купцы царстии и куповаху от Фекуя променою.

And the exportation of horses that Solomon had was from Egypt: a caravan of the king's merchants fetched a drove [of horses], at a price.

29 И прихождаху колесницы из Египта за шесть сот сребреник, и конь за сто пятьдесят сребреник: такожде и ко всем царем Хеттимским и Сирийским по морю исхождаху.

And a chariot came up and went out of Egypt for six hundred [shekels] of silver, and a horse for a hundred and fifty; and so they brought [them] by their means, for all the kings of the Hittites and for the kings of Syria.
