20 Judah and Israel were many, as the sand which is by the sea in multitude, eating and drinking, and making merry.
Juda og Israel var då so mangmente som sanden ved havet; og dei åt og drakk og var glade.
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.
Og Salomo rådde yver alle kongeriki frå Storelvi til Filistarlandet og heilt ned til landskilet imot Egyptarland. Dei sende gåvor til Salomo, og lydde honom so lenge han livde.
22 And Solomon’s provision for one day was thirty measures of fine flour, and sixty measures of meal,
Og dei matvaror Salomo trong for kvar dag, var nitti tunnor fint mjøl og eit hundrad og åtteti tunnor vanlegt mjøl,

Og bygdefutarne forsynte kong Salomo og alle deim som gjekk til bords hjå kong Salomo kvar sin månad; dei let det ikkje skorta på nokon ting.
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.
Bygg og halm til hestarne og tråvarane sende dei, kvar etter sin tur, til den staden der han heldt til.
29 And God gave Solomon great wisdom and understanding, and largeness of heart, even as the sand that is on the sea shore.
Og Gud gav Salomo visdom og ovstor kunnskap og eit vit som femnde vidt - liksom sanden ved havet,
30 And Solomon’s wisdom excelled the wisdom of all the children of the east country, and all the wisdom of Egypt.
so at visdomen åt Salomo var større enn visdomen hjå austmennerne og egyptarane.
31 For he was wiser than all men; than Ethan the Ezrahite, and Heman, and Chalcol, and Darda, the sons of Mahol: and his fame was in all the surrounding nations.

32 And he spoke three thousand proverbs: and his songs were a thousand and five.
Han dikta tri tusund ordtøke, og songarne hans var eit tusund og fem i talet.
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.
Han tala um trei, like frå cederen på Libanon til isopen som veks uppetter murveggen; han tala um firfot-dyri og fuglarne, um krypdyri og fiskarne.
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.
Frå alle land kom dei og vilde høyra på visdomen åt Salomo, frå alle kongarne på jordi som høyrde gjete kor vis han var.
