1 Kralji 10

1 Ko je kraljica iz Sabe slišala o Salomonovem slovesu glede Gospodovega imena, je prišla, da ga preizkusi s težkimi vprašanji.

And when the queen of Sheba heard of the fame of Solomon concerning the name of the LORD, she came to prove him with hard questions.

2 Prišla je v Jeruzalem z zelo velikim spremstvom, s kamelami, ki so nosile dišave, zelo veliko zlata in [z] dragocenimi kamni. Ko je prišla k Salomonu, se je z njim posvetovala o vsem, kar je bilo na njenem srcu.

And she came to Jerusalem with a very great train, with camels that bare spices, and very much gold, and precious stones: and when she was come to Solomon, she communed with him of all that was in her heart.

3 Salomon ji je povedal [odgovore na] vsa njena vprašanja. Ničesar ni bilo skritega pred kraljem, kar ji ne bi povedal.

And Solomon told her all her questions: there was not any thing hid from the king, which he told her not.

4 Ko je kraljica iz Sabe videla vso Salomonovo modrost in hišo, ki jo je zgradil,

And when the queen of Sheba had seen all Solomon's wisdom, and the house that he had built,

5 hrano njegove mize, sedenje njegovih služabnikov in položaj njegovih strežnikov, njihovo obleko, njegove dvorne točaje in njegovo vzpenjanje, s katerim je odšel gor h Gospodovi hiši, v njej ni bilo več duha.

And the food of his table, and the sitting of his servants, and the attendance of his ministers, and their apparel, and his cupbearers, and his ascent by which he went up unto the house of the LORD; there was no more spirit in her.

6 Rekla je kralju: »Poročilo, ki sem ga slišala v svoji lastni deželi, o tvojih dejanjih in o tvoji modrosti, je bilo resnično.

And she said to the king, It was a true report that I heard in mine own land of your acts and of your wisdom.

7 Vendar nisem verjela besedam, dokler nisem prišla in so moje oči to videle. Glej, niti polovice mi niso povedali. Tvoja modrost in uspevanje presega sloves, ki sem ga slišala.

Nevertheless I believed not the words, until I came, and mine eyes had seen it: and, behold, the half was not told me: your wisdom and prosperity exceeds the fame which I heard.

8 Srečni so tvoji možje, srečni so ti tvoji služabniki, ki nenehno stojijo pred teboj in ki slišijo tvojo modrost.

Happy are your men, happy are these your servants, which stand continually before you, and that hear your wisdom.

9 Blagoslovljen bodi Gospod, tvoj Bog, ki se je razveseljeval v tebi, da te je posadil na Izraelov prestol. Ker je Gospod na veke ljubil Izraela, zato te je postavil za kralja, da izvajaš sodbo in pravico.«

Blessed be the LORD your God, which delighted in you, to set you on the throne of Israel: because the LORD loved Israel for ever, therefore made he you king, to do judgment and justice.

10 Kralju je izročila sto dvajset talentov zlata in od dišav zelo veliko zalogo in dragocene kamne. Tja ni prišlo več takšno obilje dišav kakor te, ki jih je kraljica iz Sabe dala kralju Salomonu.

And she gave the king an hundred and twenty talents of gold, and of spices very great store, and precious stones: there came no more such abundance of spices as these which the queen of Sheba gave to king Solomon.

11 Prav tako je Hirámova mornarica, ki je iz Ofírja pripeljala zlato, iz Ofírja pripeljala veliko obilje sandalovine in dragocenih kamnov.

And the navy also of Hiram, that brought gold from Ophir, brought in from Ophir great plenty of almug trees, and precious stones.

12 Kralj je iz sandalovine naredil stebre za Gospodovo hišo in za kraljevo hišo, tudi harfe in plunke za pevce. Do tega dne tja ni prišlo nobene takšne sandalovine niti jih niso videli.

And the king made of the almug trees pillars for the house of the LORD, and for the king's house, harps also and psalteries for singers: there came no such almug trees, nor were seen unto this day.

13 Kralj Salomon je kraljici iz Sabe izročil vse njene želje, karkoli je prosila, poleg tega, kar ji je Salomon dal od svoje kraljeve radodarnosti. Tako se je obrnila in odšla v svojo lastno deželo, ona in njeni služabniki.

And king Solomon gave unto the queen of Sheba all her desire, whatsoever she asked, beside that which Solomon gave her of his royal bounty. So she turned and went to her own country, she and her servants.

14 Torej teža zlata, ki je v enem letu prišla k Salomonu, je bila šeststo šestinšestdeset talentov zlata,

Now the weight of gold that came to Solomon in one year was six hundred threescore and six talents of gold,

15 poleg tega kar je imel od trgovcev, od preprodaje trgovcev z dišavami, od vseh kraljev iz Arabije in od voditeljev dežele.

Beside that he had of the merchantmen, and of the trade of the spice merchants, and of all the kings of Arabia, and of the governors of the country.

16 Kralj Salomon je naredil dvesto okroglih ščitov iz kovanega zlata. Šeststo šeklov zlata je šlo k enemu okroglemu ščitu.

And king Solomon made two hundred targets of beaten gold: six hundred shekels of gold went to one target.

17 Naredil je tristo ščitov iz kovanega zlata. Tri funte zlata je šlo za en ščit. Kralj jih je postavil v hiši libanonskega gozda.

And he made three hundred shields of beaten gold; three pound of gold went to one shield: and the king put them in the house of the forest of Lebanon.

18 Poleg tega je kralj naredil velik prestol iz slonovine in ga prevlekel z najboljšim zlatom.

Moreover the king made a great throne of ivory, and overlaid it with the best gold.

19 Prestol je imel šest stopnic in vrh prestola je bil zadaj okrogel. Na vsaki strani prestola sta bili naslonjali za roke in dva leva sta stala poleg naslonjal za roke.

The throne had six steps, and the top of the throne was round behind: and there were stays on either side on the place of the seat, and two lions stood beside the stays.

20 Dvanajst levov je stalo na eni strani in na drugi, na šestih stopnicah. Kaj podobnega ni bilo narejenega v nobenem kraljestvu.

And twelve lions stood there on the one side and on the other upon the six steps: there was not the like made in any kingdom.

21 Vse Salomonove posode za pitje so bile iz zlata in vse posode hiše libanonskega gozda so bile iz čistega zlata, nobena ni bila iz srebra. V Salomonovih dneh le-to ni veljalo za nič.

And all king Solomon's drinking vessels were of gold, and all the vessels of the house of the forest of Lebanon were of pure gold; none were of silver: it was nothing accounted of in the days of Solomon.

22 Kajti kralj je imel na morju taršíško mornarico s Hirámovo mornarico. Enkrat na tri leta je prišla mornarica iz Taršíša noseč zlato, srebro, slonovino, opice in pave.

For the king had at sea a navy of Tharshish with the navy of Hiram: once in three years came the navy of Tharshish, bringing gold, and silver, ivory, and apes, and peacocks.

23 Tako je kralj Salomon zaradi bogastva in zaradi modrosti prekosil vse zemeljske kralje.

So king Solomon exceeded all the kings of the earth for riches and for wisdom.

24 Vsa zemlja je iskala Salomona, da sliši njegovo modrost, ki jo je Bog položil v njegovo srce.

And all the earth sought to Solomon, to hear his wisdom, which God had put in his heart.

25 Vsak mož je prinesel svoje darilo, posode iz srebra, posode iz zlata, obleke, bojno opremo, dišave, konje, mule in to leto za letom.

And they brought every man his present, vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and garments, and armour, and spices, horses, and mules, a rate year by year.

26 Salomon je zbral skupaj bojne vozove in konjenike. Imel je tisoč štiristo bojnih voz in dvanajst tisoč konjenikov, ki jih je usmeril v mesta za bojne vozove in s kraljem v Jeruzalem.

And Solomon gathered together chariots and horsemen: and he had a thousand and four hundred chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen, whom he bestowed in the cities for chariots, and with the king at Jerusalem.

27 Kralj je storil, da je bilo v Jeruzalemu zaradi obilja srebra kakor kamnov in storil, da je bilo ceder kakor egiptovskih smokev, ki so v dolini.

And the king made silver to be in Jerusalem as stones, and cedars made he to be as the sycomore trees that are in the vale, for abundance.

28 Salomon je imel konje, privedene iz Egipta in laneno prejo. Kraljevi trgovci so laneno prejo prejeli za ceno.

And Solomon had horses brought out of Egypt, and linen yarn: the king's merchants received the linen yarn at a price.

29 Bojni voz je prišel gor in se iz Egipta pripeljal za šeststo šeklov srebra, konj pa [za] sto petdeset. Tako so jih za vse hetejske kralje in za sirske kralje privedli ven z njihovimi sredstvi.

And a chariot came up and went out of Egypt for six hundred shekels of silver, and an horse for an hundred and fifty: and so for all the kings of the Hittites, and for the kings of Syria, did they bring them out by their means.
