2 Chronicles 9
1 Nígbà tí ayaba Ṣeba gbọ́ nípa òkìkí Solomoni, ó sì wá sí Jerusalẹmu láti dán an wò pẹ̀lú ìbéèrè tí ó le. Ó dé pẹ̀lú ẹgbẹ́ ńlá kan pẹ̀lú ìbákasẹ tí ó ru tùràrí, ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ iye wúrà, àti òkúta iyebíye, ó wá sí ọ̀dọ̀ Solomoni ó sì sọ̀rọ̀ pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ nípa gbogbo ohun tí ó ní lọ́kàn rẹ̀.
And when the queen of Saba heard of the fame of Solomon, she came to try him with hard questions at Jerusalem, with great riches, and camels, which carried spices, and abundance of gold, and precious stones. And when she was come to Solomon, she proposed to him all that was in her heart.
2 Solomoni sì dá a lóhùn gbogbo ìbéèrè rẹ̀; kò sì sí èyíkéyìí tí kò lè ṣe àlàyé fún.
And Solomon explained to her all that she proposed: and there was not any thing that he did not make clear unto her.
3 Nígbà tí ayaba Ṣeba rí ọgbọ́n Solomoni àti pẹ̀lú ilé tí ó ti kọ́,
And when she had seen these things, to wit, the wisdom of Solomon, and the house which he had built,
4 oúnjẹ tí ó wà lórí tábìlì rẹ̀, àti ìjókòó àwọn ọmọ ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀, àti dídúró àwọn ìránṣẹ́ nínú aṣọ wọn, àti àwọn agbọ́tí nínú aṣọ wọn àti ẹbọ sísun tí ó ṣe ní ilé Olúwa, ó sì dá a lágara fún ìyàlẹ́nu.
And the meats of his table, and the dwelling places of his servants, and the attendance of his officers, and their apparel, his cupbearers also, and their garments, and the victims which he offered in the house of the Lord: there was no more spirit in her, she was so astonished.
5 Ó sì wí fún ọba pé, “Ìròyìn tí mo gbọ́ ní ìlú mi nípa iṣẹ́ rẹ àti ọgbọ́n rẹ, òtítọ́ ni.
And she said to the king: The word is true which I heard in my country of thy virtues and wisdom.
6 Ṣùgbọ́n èmi kò gba ohun tí wọ́n sọ gbọ́ àyàfi ìgbà tí mó dé ibí tí mo sì ri pẹ̀lú ojú mi. Nítòótọ́, kì í tilẹ̀ ṣe ìdájọ́ ìdajì títóbi ọgbọ́n rẹ ní a sọ fún mi: ìwọ ti tàn kọjá òkìkí tí mo gbọ́.
I did not believe them that told it, until I came, and my eyes had seen, and I had proved that scarce one half of thy wisdom had been told me: thou hast exceeded the same with thy virtues.
7 Báwo ni inú àwọn ọkùnrin rẹ ìbá ṣe dùn tó! Báwo ní dídùn inú àwọn ìránṣẹ́ rẹ, àwọn tí n dúró nígbà gbogbo níwájú rẹ láti gbọ́ ọgbọ́n rẹ!
Happy are thy men, and happy are thy servants, who stand always before thee, and hear thy wisdom.
8 Ìyìn ló yẹ fún Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ, ẹni tí ó ní inú dídùn nínú rẹ tí ó sì gbé ọ ka orí ìtẹ́ ìjọba rẹ̀ láti jẹ ọba fún Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ. Nítorí ìfẹ́ Ọlọ́run rẹ fún Israẹli láti fi ìdí wọn kalẹ̀ láéláé, ó sì ti fi ọ́ ṣe ọba lórí wọn, láti ṣe ìdájọ́ àti òtítọ́.”
Blessed be the Lord thy God, who hath been pleased to set thee on his throne, king of the Lord thy God. Because God loveth Israel, and will preserve them for ever: therefore hath he made thee king over them, to do judgment and justice.
9 Nígbà náà ni ó sì fún ọba ní ọgọ́fà tálẹ́ǹtì wúrà. Ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ iye tùràrí, àti òkúta iyebíye. Kò sì tí ì sí irú tùràrí yí gẹ́gẹ́ bí èyí tí ayaba Ṣeba fi fún ọba Solomoni.
And she gave to the king a hundred and twenty talents of gold, and spices in great abundance, and most precious stones: there were no such spices as these which the queen of Saba gave to king Solomon.
10 Àwọn ènìyàn Hiramu àti àwọn ọkùnrin Solomoni gbé wúrà wá láti Ofiri, wọ́n sì tún gbé igi algumu pẹ̀lú àti òkúta iyebíye wá.
And the servants also of Hiram, with the servants of Solomon, brought gold from Ophir, and thyine trees, and most precious stones:
11 Ọba sì lo igi algumu náà láti fi ṣe àtẹ̀gùn fún ilé Olúwa àti fún ilé ọba àti láti fi ṣe dùùrù àti ohun èlò orin olókùn fún àwọn akọrin. Kò sì ṣí irú rẹ̀ tí a ti rí rí ní ilẹ̀ Juda.
And the king made of the thyine trees stairs in the house of the Lord, and in the king’s house, and harps and psalteries for the singing men: never were there seen such trees in the land of Juda.
12 Ọba Solomoni fún ayaba Ṣeba ní gbogbo ohun tí ó béèrè fún àti ohun tí ó wù ú; ó sì fi fún un ju èyí tí ó mú wá fún un lọ. Nígbà náà ni ó lọ ó sì padà pẹ̀lú àwọn ọmọ-ẹ̀yìn rẹ̀ sí ìlú rẹ̀.
And king Solomon gave to the queen of Saba all that she desired, and that she asked, and many more things than she brought to him: so she returned, and went to her own country with her servants.
13 Ìwọ̀n wúrà tí Solomoni gbà ní ọdún kan sì jẹ́ ọ̀tàlélẹ́gbẹ̀ta ó lé mẹ́fà tálẹ́ǹtì,
And the weight of the gold, that was brought to Solomon every year, was six hundred and sixty-six talents of gold:
14 láì tí ì ka àkójọpọ̀ owó ìlú tí ó wọlé láti ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn oníṣòwò àti àwọn ọlọ́jà. Àti pẹ̀lú gbogbo àwọn ọba Arabia àti àwọn baálẹ̀ ilẹ̀ náà mu wúrà àti fàdákà wá fún Solomoni.
Beside the sum which the deputies of divers nations, and the merchants were accustomed to bring, and all the kings of Arabia, and the lords of the lands, who I brought gold and silver to Solomon.
15 Ọba Solomoni sì ṣe igba asà wúrà lílù; ẹgbẹ̀ta ṣékélì tí a fi òlùlù wúrà sí ọ̀kánkán asà.
And king Solomon made two hundred golden spears, of the sum of six hundred pieces of gold, which went to every spear:
16 Ó sì ti ṣe ọ̀ọ́dúnrún kékeré ṣékélì tí a fi òlùlù wúrà, pẹ̀lú ọ̀ọ́dúnrún ṣékélì wúrà nínú àpáta kọ̀ọ̀kan. Ọba sì kó wọn sínú ààfin ti ó wà ní igbó Lebanoni.
And three hundred golden shields of three hundred pieces of gold, which went to the covering of every shield: and the king put them in the armoury, which was compassed with a wood.
17 Nígbà náà ọba sì ṣe ìtẹ́ pẹ̀lú eyín erin ńlá kan ó sì fi wúrà tó mọ́ bò ó.
The king also made a great throne of ivory, and overlaid it with pure gold.
18 Ìtẹ́ náà sì ní àtẹ̀gùn mẹ́fà, àti pẹ̀lú àpótí ìtìsẹ̀ wúrà kan ni a dè mọ́ ọn. Ní ìhà méjèèjì ibi ìjókòó ní ó ní ìgbọ́wọ́lé, pẹ̀lú kìnnìún tí ó dúró lẹ́bàá olúkúlùkù wọn.
And six steps to go up to the throne, and a footstool of gold, and two arms one on either side, and two lions standing by the arms:
19 Kìnnìún méjìlá dúró lórí àtẹ̀gùn mẹ́ta, ọ̀kan àti ní ìhà olúkúlùkù àtẹ̀gùn kò sì sí irú rẹ̀ tí a ti ṣe rí fún ìjọba mìíràn.
Moreover twelve other little lions standing upon the steps on both sides: there was not such a throne in any kingdom.
20 Gbogbo ohun èlò mímú ìjọba Solomoni ọba ni ó jẹ́ kìkì wúrà, àti gbogbo ohun èlò ààfin ní igbó Lebanoni ni ó jẹ́ wúrà mímọ́. Kò sì ṣí èyí tí a fi fàdákà ṣe, nítorí a kò ka fàdákà sí nǹkan kan ní gbogbo ọjọ́ Solomoni.
And all the vessels of the king’s table were of gold, and the vessels of the house of the forest of Libanus were of the purest gold. For no account was made of silver in those days.
21 Ọba ní ọkọ̀ tí a fi ń tajà tí àwọn ọkùnrin Hiramu ń bojútó. Ẹ̀ẹ̀kan ní ọdún mẹ́ta ni ó máa ń padà, ó ń gbé wúrà àti fàdákà àti eyín erin àti ìnàkí.
For the king’s ships went to Tharsis with the servants of Hiram, once in three years: and they brought thence gold and silver, and ivory, and apes, and peacocks.
22 Ọba Solomoni sì tóbi nínú ọláńlá àti ọgbọ́n ju gbogbo àwọn ọba tí ó kù lórí ilẹ̀ ayé lọ.
And Solomon was magnified above all the kings of the earth for riches and glory.
23 Gbogbo àwọn ọba ayé ń wá ojúrere lọ́dọ̀ Solomoni láti gbọ́n ọgbọ́n tí Ọlọ́run ti fi sínú ọkàn rẹ̀.
And all the kings of the earth desired to see the face of Solomon, that they might hear the wisdom which God had given in his heart.
24 Ní ọdọọdún, olúkúlùkù ẹni tí o wá mú ẹ̀bùn ohun èlò wúrà àti fàdákà àti aṣọ ìbora, ìhámọ́ra, àti tùràrí, àti ẹṣin àti ìbáaka wá.
And every year they brought him presents, vessels of silver and of gold, and garments, and armour, and spices, and horses, and mules.
25 Solomoni sì ní ẹgbàajì ilé fún àwọn ẹṣin àti kẹ̀kẹ́, àti ẹgbàá mẹ́fà àwọn ẹṣin, tí ó fi pamọ́ nínú ìlú kẹ̀kẹ́ àti pẹ̀lú rẹ̀ nínú Jerusalẹmu.
And Solomon had forty thousand horses in the stables, and twelve thousand chariots, and horsemen, and he placed them in the cities of the chariots, and where the king was in Jerusalem.
26 Ó sì jẹ ọba lórí gbogbo àwọn ọba láti odò Eufurate títí dé ilé àwọn ará Filistini àti títí ó fi dé agbègbè ti Ejibiti.
And he exercised authority over all the kings from the river Euphrates to the land of the Philistines, and to the borders of Egypt.
27 Ọba sì sọ fàdákà dàbí òkúta ní Jerusalẹmu, àti igi kedari ni ó sì ṣe bí igi sikamore, tí ó wà ní pẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀ ní ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀.
And he made silver as plentiful in Jerusalem as stones: and cedars as common as the sycamores, which grow in the plains.
28 A sì mú àwọn ẹṣin Solomoni wa láti ilẹ̀ òkèrè láti Ejibiti àti láti gbogbo ìlú.
And horses were brought to him out of Egypt, and out of all countries.
29 Àti gẹ́gẹ́ bí ìyókù iṣẹ́ ìjọba Solomoni, láti ìbẹ̀rẹ̀ títí dé òpin, ṣé a kò kọ wọ́n sínú ìwé ìtàn Natani wòlíì, àti nínú ìsọtẹ́lẹ̀ Ahijah ará Ṣilo àti nínú ìran Iddo, wòlíì tí o so nípa Jeroboamu ọmọ Nebati?
Now the rest of the acts of Solomon first and last are written in the words of Nathan the prophet, and in the boobs of Ahias the Silonite, and in the vision of Addo the seer, against Jeroboam the son of Nabat.
30 Solomoni jẹ ọba ní Jerusalẹmu lórí gbogbo àwọn Israẹli fún ogójì ọdún
And Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel forty years.
31 Solomoni sì sùn pẹ̀lú àwọn baba rẹ̀, a sì sin ín ní ìlú Dafidi baba rẹ̀, Rehoboamu, ọmọ rẹ̀ sì jẹ ọba ní ipò rẹ̀.
And he slept with his fathers: and they buried him in the city of David: and Roboam his son reigned in his stead.
