1 Kings 10
1 And the Queene of Sheba hearing ye fame of Salomon (concerning the Name of the Lord) came to proue him with hard questions.
A, no te rongonga o te Kuini o Hepa ki te rongo o Horomona, ki tana i mea ai mo te ingoa o Ihowa, ka haere mai ia ki te whakamatau i a ia ki nga kupu pakeke.
2 And she came to Ierusalem with a verie great traine, and camels that bare sweete odours, and golde exceeding much, and precious stones: and shee came to Salomon, and communed with him of all that was in her heart.
Na haere mai ana ia ki Hiruharama, nui atu hoki te tira, he kamera e waha ana i nga mea kakara, i tona nui o te koura, i te kohatu utu nui; na, i tona haerenga ki a Horomona, ka korerotia e ia ki a ia nga mea katoa i roto i tona ngakau.
3 And Salomon declared vnto her all her questions: nothing was hid from the King, which he expounded not vnto her.
A whakaaturia ana e Horomona ki a ia te tikanga o ana kupu katoa, kahore he kupu i ngaro i te kingi, i kore te whakaatu ki a ia.
4 Then the Queene of Sheba sawe all Salomons wisedome, and the house that he had built,
A, no te kitenga o te Kuini o Hepa i te mohio katoa o Horomona, i te whare hoki i hanga e ia,
5 And the meate of his table, and the sitting of his seruants, and the order of his ministers, and their apparel, and his drinking vessels, and his burnt offrings, that he offered in the house of the Lord, and she was greatly astonied.
I te kai o tana tepu, i te nohoanga o ana tangata, i te turanga o ana kaimahi, i o ratou kakahu, i ana kairiringi waina, i tona pikitanga i piki atu ai ki te whare o Ihowa, kore ake he wairua i roto i a ia.
6 And shee sayde vnto the King, It was a true worde that I heard in mine owne lande of thy sayings, and of thy wisedome.
A ka mea ia ki te kingi, Pono tonu nga mea i rongo ai ahau i toku whenua mo au mahi, mo tou mohio.
7 Howebeit I beleeued not this report till I came, and had seene it with mine eyes: but lo, ye one halfe was not tolde mee: for thou hast more wisedome and prosperitie, then I haue heard by report.
Heoi kihai ahau i whakapono ki aua korero, a tae noa mai ahau, kite noa oku kanohi. Nana, kihai te hawhe i korerotia ki ahau; nui atu tou mohio, tou pai, i te rongo i rongo ai ahau.
8 Happy are the men, happie are these thy seruants, which stande euer before thee, and heare thy wisedome.
Ano te hari o au tangata, ano te hari o enei pononga au e tu tonu nei i tou aroaro, e whakarongo nei ki tou mohio!
9 Blessed be the Lord thy God, which loued thee, to set thee on the throne of Israel, because the Lord loued Israel for euer and made thee King to doe equitie and righteousnesse.
Kia whakapaingia a Ihowa, tou Atua i whakaahuareka nei ki a koe, i homai nei i a koe ki runga ki te torona o Iharaira; he aroha mau tonu hoki no Ihowa ki a Iharaira, na meinga ana koe e ia hei kingi, hei nahi i te whakawa, i te tika.
10 And she gaue the King sixe score talents of golde, and of sweete odours exceeding much, and precious stones. There came no more such aboundance of sweete odours, as the Queene of Sheba gaue to King Salomon.
Na homai ana e ia ki te kingi kotahi rau e rua tekau taranata koura, tona tini o nga mea kakara, me nga kohatu utu nui; kahore he mea kakara i tae mai i muri nei hei rite te nui ki enei i homai nei e te Kuini o Hepa ki a Kingi Horomona.
11 The nauie also of Hiram (that caried gold from Ophir) brought likewise great plentie of Almuggim trees from Ophir and precious stones.
A na nga kaipuke o Hirama nana nei i mau mai te koura i Opira, na reira ano i kawe mai nga raku aramuka me nga kohatu utu nui i Opira, tona tini.
12 And the King made of ye Almuggim trees pillars for the house of the Lord, and for ye Kings palace, and made harpes and psalteries for singers. There came no more such Almuggim trees, nor were any more seene vnto this day.
Na ka hanga aua rakau aramuka e te kingi hei pou mo te whare o Ihowa, mo te whare ano o te kingi, he hapa, hei hatere, he mea ma nga kaiwaiata: kahore ano i tae noa mai he rakau aramuka hei rite, kahore hoki i kitea i mua, a taea noatia tenei ra.
13 And King Salomon gaue vnto the Queene of Sheba, whatsoeuer she would aske, besides that, which Salomon gaue her of his kingly liberalitie: so she returned and went to her owne countrey, both shee, and her seruantes.
Na ka hoatu e Kingi Horomona ki te Kuini o Hepa nga mea katoa i pai ai ia, ana hoki i tono ai, he tapiri ki runga ki nga mea i hoatu e te ringa o Kingi Horomona ki a ia. Heoi ka tahuri ia, a haere ana ratou ko ana tangata ki tona whenua.
14 Also the weight of golde, that came to Salomon in one yeere, was sixe hundreth three score and six talents of gold,
Na, ko te taimaha o te koura i tae ki a Horomona i te tau kotahi, e ono rau e ono tekau ma ono taranata koura;
15 Besides that he had of marchant men and of the marchandises of them that solde spices, and of all the Kinges of Arabia, and of the princes of the countrey.
Haunga a nga kairapu taonga, i mau mai ai me nga taonga a nga kaihokohoko, a nga kingi katoa o Arapia, a nga kawana o te whenua.
16 And King Salomon made two hundreth targets of beaten golde, sixe hundreth shekels of gold went to a target:
Na ka hanga e Kingi Horomona etahi pukupuku, e rua rau, he mea patu te koura: e ono rau nga hekere koura ki te pukupuku kotahi.
17 And three hundreth shieldes of beaten golde, three pound of gold went to one shielde: and the King put them in the house of the wood of Lebanon.
A i hangaia e ia etahi pukupuku iti iho e toru rau, he mea patu te koura: e toru pauna koura ki te pukupuku kotahi: a hoatu ana e te kingi ki te whare o te ngahere o Repanona.
18 Then the King made a great throne of yuorie, and couered it with the best golde.
A i hanga e te kingi tetahi torona nui ki te rei, whakakikoruatia iho ki te koura pai rawa.
19 And the throne had six steps, and the top of the throne was round behind, and there were stayes on either side on the place of the throne, and two lions standing by the stayes.
E ono nga kaupae ki te torona, he mea porotaka a runga o muri o te torona; he okiokinga ringa ano kei te wahi e nohoia ana, i tetahi taha, i tetahi taha, e rua ano nga raiona e tu ana i te taha o nga okiokinga.
20 And there stoode twelue lions on the sixe steps on either side: there was not the like made in any kingdome.
Kotahi tekau ma rua hoki nga raiona i reira e tu ana i tetahi taha, i tetahi taha, i runga i nga kaupae e ono; kahore he mea pera i hanga i tetahi atu rangatiratanga.
21 And all King Salomons drinking vessels were of golde, and all the vessels of the house of the woode of Lebanon were of pure golde, none were of siluer: for it was nothing esteemed in the dayes of Salomon.
Na, ko nga oko inu katoa a kingi Horomona, he koura kau; me nga oko katoa o te whare o te ngahere o Repanona, he koura parakore; kahore he hiriwa: kihai tera i kiia he mea nui nga ra o Horomona.
22 For the King had on the sea the nauie of Tharshish with the nauie of Hiram: once in three yere came the nauie of Tharshish, and brought golde and siluer, yuorie, and apes and peacockes.
He maha hoki a te kingi kaipuke ki Tarahihi i te moana, he mea huihui ki nga kaipuke a Hirama: kotahi te unga mai i nga tau e toru o nga kaipuke o Tarahihi, hei kawe mai i te koura, i te hiriwa, i te rei, i nga makimaki, me nga pikake.
23 So King Salomon exceeded all the kings of the earth both in riches and in wisedome.
Na nui atu a Kingi Horomona i nga kingi katoa o te whenua te whai taonga, te mohio.
24 And al the world sought to see Salomon, to heare his wisedome, which God had put in his heart,
I whaia ano a Horomona e nga whenua katoa, kia rongo ai ratou i tona mohio i homai nei e te Atua ki tona ngakau.
25 And they brought euery man his present, vessels of siluer, and vessels of golde, and raiment, and armour, and sweete odours, horses and mules, from yeere to yeere.
Me te kawe mai ano ratou i tana hakari, i tana hakari, i nga oko hiriwa, i nga oko koura, i nga kakahu, i nga mea mo te whawhai, i nga kakara reka, i nga hoiho, i nga muera, he mea tatau a tau tonu.
26 Then Salomon gathered together charrets and horsemen: and he had a thousand and foure hundreth charets, and twelue thousande horsemen, whome hee placed in the charet cities, and with the King at Ierusalem.
Na ka amia e Horomona he hariata, he kaieke hoiho: kotahi mano e wha rau ana hariata, tekau ma rua mano nga kainoho hoiho, he mea wehe nana ki nga pa hariata, ki te kingi hoki, ki Hiruharama.
27 And the King gaue siluer in Ierusalem as stones, and gaue cedars as the wilde figtrees that growe abundantly in the plaine.
Na meinga ana te hiriwa e te kingi ki Hiruharama kia rite ki te kohatu; i meinga ano e ia nga hita kia rite ki te hokamora i te raorao te tini.
28 Also Salomon had horses brought out of Egypt, and fine linen: the Kings marchants receiued the linen for a price.
A, ko nga hoiho o Horomona, he mea mau mai i Ihipa; na nga kaihoko a te kingi i tango kahui mai, tena kahui me tona utu.
29 There came vp and went out of Egypt some charet, worth sixe hundreth shekels of siluer: that is, one horse, an hundreth and fiftie and thus they brought horses to all the Kings of the Hittites and to the Kings of Aram by their meanes.
Na e ono rau nga hekere hiriwa i riro ai te hariata i puta ai i Ihipa, kotahi rau e rima tekau i riro ai te hoiho: ko ratou hei kawe mo nga kingi katoa o nga Hiti, mo nga kingi o Hiria.
