1 Kings 10
1 Now the queen of Sheba, hearing great things of Solomon, came to put his wisdom to the test with hard questions.
Ary ny mpanjakavavin’ i Sheba, rehefa nahare ny lazan’ i Solomona ny amin’ ny anaran’ i Jehovah, dia avy hizaha toetra azy amin’ ny fanontaniana sarotra,
2 And she came to Jerusalem with a very great train, with camels weighted down with spices, and stores of gold and jewels: and when she came to Solomon she had talk with him of everything in her mind.
ka tonga tany Jerosalema izy mbamin’ ny mpanaraka maro be sy ny rameva izay nitondra zava-manitra sy volamena sesehena ary vato soa; ary rehefa tonga tany amin’ i Solomona izy, dia nilaza taminy izay rehetra tao am-pony.
3 And Solomon gave her answers to all her questions; there was no secret which the king did not make clear to her.
Ary voavalin’ i Solomona izy tamin’ izay rehetra nanontaniany azy; tsy nisy zavatra niafina tamin’ ny mpanjaka, ka dia nambarany azy avokoa.
4 And when the queen of Sheba had seen all the wisdom of Solomon, and the house which he had made,
Ary rehefa hitan’ ilay mpanjakavavin’ i Sheba ny fahendren’ i Solomona rehetra sy ny trano izay nataony
5 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 the burned offerings which he made in the house of the Lord, there was no more spirit in her.
sy ny fihinany teo amin’ ny latabany sy ny fipetrahan’ ny tandapany sy ny fitoeran’ ny mpanompony mbamin’ ny fitafian’ ireo sy ny mpitondra kapoakany ary ny ambaratonga izay niakarany ho ao an-tranon’ i Jehovah, dia talanjona terỳ izy.
6 And she said to the king, The account which was given to me in my country of your acts and your wisdom was true.
Ka hoy izy tamin’ ny mpanjaka: Marina ny teny efa reko tany amin’ ny taniko ny amin’ ny teninao sy ny fahendrenao.
7 But I had no faith in what was said about you, till I came and saw for myself; and now I see that it was not half the story; your wisdom and your wealth are much greater than they said.
kanefa tsy nino ny filazana aho, raha tsy tonga atỳ, ka ny masoko no mahita, kanjo hay! na dia ny antsasany aza tsy voalaza tamiko akory: fa, indro, ny fahendrenao sy ny voninahitrao dia mihoatra lavitra noho izay laza efa reko.
8 Happy are your wives, happy are these your servants whose place is ever before you, hearing your words of wisdom.
Sambatra lahy ny olonao, ary sambatra ireto tandapanao ireto, izay mijanona eto anatrehanao mandrakariva ka mandre ny fahendrenao
9 May the Lord your God be praised, whose pleasure it was to put you on the seat of the kingdom of Israel; because the Lord's love for Israel is eternal, he has made you king, to be their judge in righteousness.
Isaorana anie Jehovah Andriamanitrao, Izay tia anao ka nametraka anao amin’ ny seza fiandrianan’ ny Isiraely; fa noho ny fitiavan’ i Jehovah, izay itiavany ny Isiraely mandrakizay, no nanaovany anao ho mpanjaka mba hanao fitsarana sy fahamarinana.
10 And she gave the king a hundred and twenty talents of gold, and a great store of spices and jewels: never again was such a wealth of spices seen as that which the queen of Sheba gave King Solomon.
Ary izy nanome talenta volamena roa-polo amby zato sy zava-manitra sesehena ary vato soa ho an’ ny mpanjaka; tsy nisy intsony zava-manitra be indrindra tonga tahaka ilay nomen’ ny mpanjakavavin’ i Sheba ho an’ i Solomona mpanjaka.
11 And the sea-force of Hiram, in addition to gold from Ophir, came back with much sandal-wood and jewels.
Ary ny sambon’ i Hirama koa, izay naka volamena avy any Ofira, dia nitondra hazo almoga be indrindra sy vato soa avy any Ofira.
12 And from the sandal-wood the king made pillars for the house of the Lord, and for the king's house, and instruments of music for the makers of melody: never has such sandal-wood been seen to this day.
Ary ny hazo almoga dia nataon’ ny mpanjaka arofanina tamin’ ny tranon’ i Jehovah sy ny lapan’ andriana ary nataony lokanga sy valiha ho an’ ny mpihira kosa; tsy nisy hazo almoga tonga tany na hita toy izany intsony mandraka androany.
13 And King Solomon gave the queen of Sheba all her desire, whatever she made request for, in addition to what he gave her freely from the impulse of his heart. So she went back to her country, she and her servants.
Ary Solomona mpanjaka nanome ny mpanjakavavin’ i Sheba kosa izay rehetra niriny, na inona na inona nangatahiny, afa-tsy izay nomeny azy araka ny fanomen’ i Solomona mpanjaka; ka dia niverina izy, ary lasa nody tany amin’ ny taniny izy mbamin’ ny mpanompony.
14 Now the weight of gold which came to Solomon in one year was six hundred and sixty-six talents;
Ary ny lanjan’ ny volamena izay tonga tao amin’ i Solomona isan-taona dia talenta volamena enina amby enim-polo amby enin-jato,
15 In addition to what came to him from the business of the traders, and from all the kings of the Arabians, and from the rulers of the country.
afa-tsy izay azony tamin’ ny mpandranto sy ny tamin’ ny varotry ny mpivarotra ary tamin’ ny mpanjakan’ ny firenena samy hafa rehetra sy tamin’ ny mpanapaka ny tany.
16 And Solomon made two hundred body-covers of hammered gold, every one having six hundred shekels of gold in it.
Ary Solomona mpanjaka nanao ampinga volamena lehibe roan-jato tamin’ ny volamena voafisaka, ka takela-bolamena sekely enin-jato no napetaka tamin’ ny ampinga lehibe iray.
17 And he made three hundred smaller body-covers of hammered gold, with three pounds of gold in every cover: and the king put them in the house of the Woods of Lebanon.
Ary nanao ampinga volamena telonjato koa izy tamin’ ny volamena voafisaka, ka takela-bolamena telo mane no napetaka tamin’ ny ampinga iray. Dia napetraky ny mpanjaka tao amin’ ny trano Alan’ i Libanona ireo.
18 Then the king made a great ivory seat, plated with the best gold.
Ary ny mpanjaka dia nanao seza fiandrianana ivory lehibe, ka nopetahany takela-bolamena tsara indrindra.
19 There were six steps going up to it, and the top of it was round at the back, there were arms on the two sides of the seat, and two lions by the side of the arms;
Nisy ambaratonga enina tamin’ ny seza fiandrianana; ary ny lohan’ ny seza fiandrianana, dia boribory ny eo an damosiny; ary nisy fitehenan-tanana teo an-daniny roa amin’ ny fipetrahana; ary nisy sarin-diona roa teo an-danin’ ny fitehenan-tanana.
20 And twelve lions were placed on the one side and on the other side on the six steps: there was nothing like it in any kingdom.
Ary nisy sarin-diona roa ambin’ ny folo teo an-daniny roa teo amin’ ny ambaratonga enina. Tsy nisy natao tahaka izany tany amin’ ny fanjakana rehetra.
21 And 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; not one was of silver, for no one gave a thought to silver in the days of King Solomon.
Ary ny fisotroan’ i Solomona mpanjaka dia volamena, ary ny fanaka rehetra tao amin’ ny trano Alan’ i Libanona koa dia volamena tsara avokoa; tsy nisy volafotsy ireo; fa nataony toy ny tsinontsinona izany tamin’ ny andron’ i Solomona.
22 For the king had Tarshish-ships at sea with the ships of Hiram; once every three years the Tarshish-ships came with gold and silver and ivory and monkeys and peacocks.
Fa ny mpanjaka nanana sambon’ i Tarsisy mbamin’ ny sambon’ i Hirama teny ambonin’ ny ranomasina; ary indray mandeha amin’ ny telo taona no nihavian’ ny sambon’ i Tarsisy nitondra volamena sy volafotsy sy ivory sy rajako ary vorombola.
23 And King Solomon was greater than all the kings of the earth in wealth and in wisdom.
Ary Solomona mpanjaka dia nanankarena sady hendry noho ny mpanjaka rehetra ambonin’ ny tany.
24 And from all over the earth they came to see Solomon and to give ear to his wisdom, which God had put in his heart.
Ary ny tany rehetra nitady hahita ny tavan’ i Solomona mba hihaino ny fahendrena izay nataon’ Andriamanitra tao am-pony.
25 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 of transport, regularly year by year.
Ary izy rehetra dia samy nahatonga ny anjarany avy isan-taona, dia fanaka volafotsy sy fanaka volamena sy fitafiana sy fiadiana sy zava-manitra sy soavaly ary ampondra.
26 And Solomon got together war-carriages and horsemen; he had one thousand, four hundred carriages and twelve thousand horsemen, whom he kept, some in the carriage-towns and some with the king at Jerusalem.
Ary Solomona nanangona kalesy sy mpitaingin-tsoavaly; ary nanana kalesy efajato amby arivo izy sy mpitaingin-tsoavaly roa arivo amby iray alina, izay nataony tao amin’ ireo tanàna fitoeran’ ny kalesy sy tao amin’ ny mpanjaka tany Jerosalema.
27 And the king made silver as common as stones in Jerusalem and cedars like the sycamore-trees of the lowlands in number.
Ary nataon’ ny mpanjaka tahaka ny vato ny habetsaky ny volafotsy tany Jerosalema, ary ny hazo sedera nataony toy ny aviavy eny amin’ ny tany lemaka amoron-tsiraka.
28 And Solomon's horses came from Egypt and from Kue; the king's traders got them at a price from Kue.
Ary avy any Egypta no nahazoan’ i Solomona soavaly; ary ny iray toko tamin’ ny mpandranton’ ny mpanjaka dia naka ny andiany iray araka izay vidiny voatendry.
29 A war-carriage might be got from Egypt for six hundred shekels of silver, and a horse for a hundred and fifty; they got them at the same rate for all the kings of the Hittites and the kings of Aram.
Ary ny vidin’ ny kalesy iray nentiny niakatra avy tany Egypta dia sekely volafotsy enin-jato, ary ny soavaly dia dimam-polo amby zato avy; ary toy izany kosa no nitondrany ho an’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Hetita sy ny mpanjakan’ ny Syriana.
