2 Cronicas 9
1 Idi nadamag ti reyna iti Seba ti kinalatak ni Solomon, napan isuna idiay Jerusalem tapno suotenna isuna babaen kadagiti naririgat a saludsod. Napan isuna a nangikuyog iti adu nga adipen, agraman kadagiti kamelio a nakargaan kadagiti rekrekado, adu a balitok, ken adu a napapateg a bato. Idi dimteng isuna iti ayan ni Solomon, imbagana kenkuana dagiti amin nga adda iti pusona.
Also, when the queen of Sheba had heard of the fame of Solomon, she came to Jerusalem, with great riches and with camels which were carrying aromatics, and very much gold, and precious gems, so that she might test him with enigmas. And when she had approached Solomon, she spoke to him all that was in her heart.
2 Sinungbatan ni Solomon dagiti amin a saludsodna; awan ti narigat unay kenni Solomon; awan ti saludsod a saanna a nasungbatan.
And Solomon explained for her all that she had proposed. And there was nothing that he did not make clear to her.
3 Idi nakita ti reyna ti Seba ti kinasirib ni Solomon ken ti palasio a binangonna,
And after she saw these things, specifically, the wisdom of Solomon, and the house which he had built,
4 ti makan iti lamisaanna, ti pagnanaedan dagiti adipenna, ti trabaho dagiti adipenna ken ti pagan-anayda, kasta met dagiti para-idasarna iti arak ken dagiti pagan-anayda, ken ti wagas iti panangidatonna iti daton a maipuor iti balay ni Yahweh, nasdaaw iti kasta unay isuna.
indeed also the foods of his table, and the habitations of the servants, and the duties of his ministers, and their apparel, and also his cupbearers and their garments, and the victims which he was immolating in the house of the Lord, there was no longer any spirit in her, due to astonishment.
5 Kinunana iti ari, “Pudno, ti nadamagko iti bukodko a daga maipapan kadagiti sasaom ken iti kinasiribmo.
And she said to the king: “The word is true, which I had heard in my own land, about your virtues and wisdom.
6 Saanko a pinati dagiti nadamagko agingga a dimtengak ditoy, ket ita, nakitak daytoy. Awan pay kagudua ti naibaga kaniak maipapan iti kinasirib ken kinabaknangmo! Nalatlatakka nga adayu ngem iti mangmangngegko.
I did not believe those who described it, until I had arrived and my eyes had seen, and I had proven that not even half of your wisdom had been described to me. You have exceeded your fame with your virtue.
7 Anian a nagasat dagiti tattaom, ken anian a nagasat dagiti adipenmo a kankanayon a nakatakder iti sangoanam, gapu ta mangmangngegda ti kinasiribmo.
Blessed are your men, and blessed are your servants, who stand before you at all times and listen to your wisdom.
8 Madaydayaw koma ni Yahweh a Diosmo, a naay-ayo kenka, a nangisaad kenka iti tronona, tapno agbalin nga ari para kenni Yahweh a Diosmo. Gapu ta ay-ayaten ti Diosmo ti Israel, tapno mataginayonda, pinagbalinnaka nga arida, tapno ipatungpalmo ti hustisia ken kinalinteg!”
Blessed is the Lord your God, who willed to set you upon his throne as a king for the Lord your God. Since God loves Israel, he wishes to preserve them unto eternity. For this reason, he appointed you as king over them, so that you may accomplish judgment and justice.”
9 Inikkanna ti ari iti 120 a talento a balitok ken kadagiti nakaad-adu a rekrekado ken kadagiti napapateg a bato. Awan ti naited kenni Ari Solomon a kas iti kaadu dagitoy a rekrekado nga inted ti reyna ti Seba kenkuana.
Then she gave to the king one hundred twenty talents of gold, and an exceedingly great abundance of aromatics, and very precious gems. Never were there such aromatics as those that the queen of Sheba gave to king Solomon.
10 Nangiyeg pay dagiti adipen ni Hiram ken dagiti adipen ni Solomon a nangiyeg iti balitok manipud iti Ofir kadagiti algum a kayo ken kadagiti napapateg a bato.
Then too, the servants of Hiram, with the servants of Solomon, brought gold from Ophir, and wood from thyine trees, and very precious gems.
11 Babaen kadagiti algum a kayo, nangaramid ti ari kadagiti agdan ti balay ni Yahweh ken ti balayna, kasta met kadagiti arpa ken lira nga agpaay kadagiti tumutukar. Awan pay ti kastoy a kayo a nakita iti daga ti Juda.
And the king made, from this particular thyine wood, steps in the house of the Lord, and in the house of the king, and also harps and psalteries for the singing men. Never was there seen such wood in the land of Judah.
12 Inted ni Ari Solomon iti reyna ti Seba ti amin a kinayatna, aniaman a kiniddawna, a kas nayon ti maisukat iti inyegna iti ari. Nagawid ngarud isuna iti bukodna a daga, isuna ken dagiti adipenna.
Then king Solomon gave to the queen of Sheba all that she desired, and all that she requested, and much more than what she had brought to him. And returning, she went away to her own land with her servants.
13 Ita, 666 a talento ti kadagsen ti balitok a dimteng kenni Solomon iti maysa a tawen,
Now the weight of the gold, which was being brought to Solomon throughout each year, was six hundred sixty-six talents of gold,
14 malaksid kadagiti balitok nga inyeg dagiti agtagtagilako ken dagiti komersiante. Nangiyeg pay dagiti amin nga ari ti Arabia ken dagiti gobernador iti pagilian kenni Solomon iti balitok ken pirak.
apart from the sum that the legates of various nations and the merchants were accustomed to bring, and apart from the gold and silver that all the kings of Arabia, and the princes of the lands, were bringing together for Solomon.
15 Nagaramid ni Solomon iti dua gasut a dadakkel a kalasag manipud iti napitpit a balitok. Innem a gasut a siklo a balitok ti naikabil iti tunggal maysa.
And so, king Solomon made two hundred gold spears, from six hundred gold pieces, the amount used for each spear,
16 Nagaramid pay isuna iti tallo gasut a kalasag manipud iti napitpit a balitok. Tallo a minas iti balitok ti naikabil iti tunggal kalasag; inkabil ti ari dagitoy iti uneg ti Palasio iti Kabakiran ti Lebanon.
and also three hundred gold shields, from three hundred gold pieces, which covered each shield. And the king placed them in the armory, which was situated in a forest.
17 Kalpasanna, nangaramid ti ari iti dakkel a trono a marfil sana kinalupkopan daytoy iti puro a balitok.
Also, the king made a great ivory throne, and he clothed it with the purest gold.
18 Adda innem a pangal a mapan iti trono, ken nagbukel ti tuktok ti trono. Adda dagiti pagsadagan ti ima iti tunggal sikigan ti tugaw, ken dua a sinan-leon a nakatakder iti abay dagiti pagsadagan ti ima.
And there were six steps, by which he would ascend to the throne, and a footstool of gold, and two arms, one on each side, and two lions standing beside the arms.
19 Sangapulo ket dua a sinan-leon ti nakatakder iti innem a pangal, maysa iti tunggal sikigan ti innem a pangal. Awan ti trono a kasla iti daytoy iti uray sadinoman a pagarian.
Moreover, there were twelve additional little lions standing upon the six steps on both sides. There was no similar throne in all the kingdoms.
20 Balitok amin a kopa ni Ari Solomon, ken puro a balitok dagiti amin a kopa iti Balay iti Kabakiran ti Lebanon. Awan ti naaramid manipud iti pirak gapu ta saan a maibilang a napateg ti pirak kadagiti aldaw ni Solomon.
Also, all the vessels for the feasts of the king were of gold, and the vessels of the forest house of Lebanon were from the purest gold. For silver in those days was considered as nothing.
21 Addaan ti ari kadagiti bunggoy dagiti barko nga aglaylayag iti taaw, a makikuykuyog iti bunggoy ti barko ni Hiram. Tunggal tallo a tawen, agisangpet dagiti bunggoy dagiti barko iti balitok, pirak, ken marfil, kasta met kadagiti bakes ken burangen.
For indeed, the ships of the king went to Tarshish, with the servants of Hiram, once every three years. And they brought from there gold, and silver, and ivory, and primates, and peacocks.
22 Isu nga inartapan ni Ari Solomon dagiti amin nga ari iti lubong iti kinabaknang ken kinasirib.
And so, Solomon was magnified above all the kings of the earth in wealth and glory.
23 Sapsapulen dagiti amin nga ari iti daga ti presensia ni Solomon tapno dumngegda iti kinasiribna, nga inkabil ti Dios iti pusona.
And all the kings of the lands were desiring to see the face of Solomon, so that they might hear the wisdom that God had granted to his heart.
24 Tinawen nga adda ited a sagut dagiti mangsarungkar kenkuana, dagiti pagkargaan a naaramid manipud iti pirak ken balitok, dagiti pagan-anay, armas, ken dagiti rekrekado, kasta met dagiti kabalio ken mulo.
And they were bringing to him gifts, vessels of silver and of gold, and garments, and armor, and aromatics, and horses, and mules, throughout each year.
25 Addaan ni Ari Solomon iti uppat a ribu a siled para kadagiti kabalio ken karuahe, ken sangapulo ket dua a ribu a lallaki nga agkabkabalio, nga impuestona kadagiti siudad ti karuahe ken agraman iti ayanna idiay Jerusalem.
Also, Solomon had forty thousand horses in the stables, and twelve thousand chariots and horsemen, and he appointed them to the cities of the chariots, and where the king was in Jerusalem.
26 Inturayanna amin nga ari manipud iti Karayan Eufrates agingga iti daga dagiti Filisteo, ken agingga iti beddeng ti Egipto.
Now he also exercised authority over all the kings from the river Euphrates as far as the land of the Philistines, and as far as the borders of Egypt.
27 Addaan ti ari iti pirak idiay Jerusalem, a kas iti kaadu dagiti bato iti daga. Pinagbalinna dagiti kayo a sedro a kas kawadwad dagiti kayo a sikamoro nga adda kadagiti kapatadan.
And he brought forth so much silver that it was as plentiful in Jerusalem as stones. And cedar trees were as great in number as the sycamores that spring up in the plains.
28 Nangiyegda kadagiti kabalio kenni Solomon manipud iti Egipto ken kadagiti amin a daga.
And horses were brought to him from Egypt and from every region.
29 No maipapan met kadagiti dadduma a banbanag maipanggep kenni Solomon, manipud panangrugina agingga iti kamaudiananna, saan kadi a naisurat dagitoy iti Pakasaritaan ni Profeta Natan, iti Padto ni Ahija a taga-Silo, ken kadagiti Sirmata ni Iddo a Profeta maipanggep kenni Jeroboam a putot a lalaki ni Nebat?
Now the rest of the works of Solomon, the first and the last, have been written in the words of Nathan, the prophet, and in the books of Ahijah, the Shilonite, as well as in the vision of Iddo, the seer, against Jeroboam, the son of Nabat.
30 Nagturay ni Solomon idiay Jerusalem iti entero nga Israel iti uppat a pulo a tawen.
And Solomon reigned in Jerusalem, over all of Israel, for forty years.
31 Pimmusay isuna ket intabon dagiti tattao iti siudad ni David nga amana; ni Rehoboam a putotna a lalaki ti simmukat kenkuana nga ari.
And he slept with his fathers. And they buried him in the City of David. And his son, Rehoboam, reigned in his place.
