20 Judah and Israel were many, as the sand which is by the sea in multitude, eating and drinking, and making merry.
Judah neh Israel he a hlangmi lamtah tuipuei kah laivin bangla ping uh tih a caak, a ok neh a kohoe.
21 And Solomon reigned over all kingdoms from the river to the land of the Philistines, and to the border of Egypt: they brought presents, and served Solomon all the days of his life.

22 And Solomon’s provision for one day was thirty measures of fine flour, and sixty measures of meal,
Te vaengah hnin at dongkah Solomon kah a caak he, vaidam kore sawmthum neh buh kore sawmrhuk lo.
23 Ten fat oxen, and twenty oxen out of the pastures, and an hundred sheep, besides harts, and roebucks, and fallowdeer, and fatted fowls.

26 And Solomon had forty thousand stalls of horses for his chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen.

27 And those officers provided food for king Solomon, and for all that came to king Solomon’s table, every man in his month: they lacked nothing.
Te rhoek loh manghai Solomon te a cangbam uh tih a pai puei uh. Amah hla khat ah hlang pakhat neh manghai Solomon kah caboei taengla aka mop boeih khaw hnopai neh mueh uh pawh.
28 Barley also and straw for the horses and dromedaries they brought to the place where the officers were, every man according to his charge.
Marhang ham neh leng marhang ham cangtun neh cangkong khaw, hlang loh amah kah hamsum bangla a om nah hmuen la pahoi a thak uh coeng.
29 And God gave Solomon great wisdom and understanding, and largeness of heart, even as the sand that is on the sea shore.
Pathen loh Solomon te cueihnah a paek dongah a lungcuei khaw muep ping. Te vaengah lungbuei te tuipuei tuikaeng kah laivin bangla a daang a ka pah.
30 And Solomon’s wisdom excelled the wisdom of all the children of the east country, and all the wisdom of Egypt.

32 And he spoke three thousand proverbs: and his songs were a thousand and five.
thawng thum a thui tih a laa khaw thawng khat panga om.
33 And he spoke of trees, from the cedar tree that is in Lebanon even to the hyssop that springeth out of the wall: he spoke also of beasts, and of fowls, and of creeping things, and of fishes.
Thingkung te Lebanon kah lamphai lamloh pangbueng lamkah aka poe pumpiding hil khaw a thui. Rhamsa kawng neh vaa kawng khaw, rhulcai kawng neh nga kawng khaw a thui.
34 And there came of all people to hear the wisdom of Solomon, from all kings of the earth, who had heard of his wisdom.
A cueihnah te a yaak uh vaengah pilnam cungkuem lamlong khaw, diklai manghai boeih lamlong khaw Solomon kah cueihnah te hnatun ham a paan uh.
