1At nang mabalitaan ng reina sa Seba ang kabantugan ni Salomon, siya'y naparoon upang subukin si Salomon, sa mga mahirap na tanong sa Jerusalem, na may maraming kaakbay, at mga kamelyo na may pasang mga espesia, at ginto na sagana, at mga mahalagang bato: at nang siya'y dumating kay Salomon, kaniyang inihinga sa kaniya ang lahat na laman ng kaniyang dibdib. 2At isinaysay ni Salomon sa kaniya ang lahat niyang tanong: at walang bagay na nalingid kay Salomon na hindi niya isinaysay sa kaniya. 3At nang makita ng reina sa Seba ang karunungan ni Salomon, at ang bahay na kaniyang itinayo. 4At ang pagkain sa kaniyang dulang, at ang pagkaayos ng kaniyang mga alila, at ang tayo ng kaniyang mga tagapaglingkod, at ang kanilang mga pananamit, gayon din ang kaniyang mga tagahawak ng saro, at ang kanilang mga pananamit; at ang kaniyang sampahan na kaniyang sinasampahan sa bahay ng Panginoon: nawalan siya ng loob. 5At sinabi niya sa hari, Tunay na balita ang aking narinig sa aking sariling lupain tungkol sa iyong mga gawa, at sa iyong karunungan. 6Gayon ma'y hindi ko pinaniwalaan ang kanilang mga salita hanggang sa ako'y dumating, at nakita ng aking mga mata: at, narito, ang kalahati ng kalakhan ng iyong karunungan ay hindi nasaysay sa akin: ikaw ay humigit sa kabantugan na aking narinig. 7Mapapalad ang iyong mga tao, at mapapalad itong iyong mga lingkod, na nagsisitayong palagi sa harap mo, at nangakakarinig ng iyong karunungan. 8Purihin ang Panginoon mong Dios, na nalulugod sa iyo, na inilagay ka sa kaniyang luklukan, upang maging hari na ukol sa Panginoon mong Dios: sapagka't minamahal ng iyong Dios ang Israel, upang itatag magpakailan man, kaya't ginawa ka niyang hari sa kanila, upang magsagawa ng kahatulan at ng katuwiran. 9At siya'y nagbigay sa hari ng isang daan at dalawangpung talentong ginto, at mga espesia na totoong sagana, at mga mahalagang bato: ni nagkaroon pa man ng gayong espesia na gaya ng ibinigay ng reina sa Seba sa haring Salomon. 10At ang mga bataan naman ni Hiram, at ang mga bataan ni Salomon, na nagsipagdala ng ginto mula sa Ophir, nagsipagdala ng mga kahoy na algum at mga mahalagang bato. 11At ginawang mga hagdanan ng hari ang mga kahoy na algum sa bahay ng Panginoon, at sa bahay ng hari, at mga alpa, at mga salterio na ukol sa mga mangaawit: at wala nang nakita pang gaya niyaon sa lupain ng Juda. 12At ang haring Salomon ay nagbigay sa reina sa Seba ng lahat niyang nasa, anomang hiningi niya, bukod sa timbang ng kaniyang dinala sa hari. Sa gayo'y siya'y bumalik, at umuwi sa kaniyang sariling lupain, siya at ang kaniyang mga lingkod. 13Ang timbang nga ng ginto na dumating kay Salomon sa isang taon ay anim na raan at anim na pu't anim na talentong ginto, 14Bukod doon sa dinala ng mga manglalako at mga mangangalakal; at ang lahat na hari sa Arabia at ang mga tagapamahala sa lupain ay nagsipagdala ng ginto at pilak kay Salomon. 15At ang haring Salomon ay gumawa ng dalawang daang kalasag na pinukpok na ginto: anim na raang siklo na pinukpok na ginto ang ginamit sa bawa't kalasag. 16At siya'y gumawa ng tatlong daang kalasag na pinukpok na ginto; tatlong daang siklo na ginto ang ginamit sa bawa't kalasag: at inilagay ng hari sa bahay na kahoy sa gubat ng Libano. 17Bukod dito'y gumawa ang hari ng isang malaking luklukang garing, at binalot ng taganas na ginto. 18At may anim na baytang sa luklukan, at isang gintong tungtungan, na mga nakakapit sa luklukan, at may mga pinakakamay sa bawa't tagiliran sa siping ng dako ng upuan, at dalawang leon ang nakatayo sa siping ng mga pinakakamay. 19At labing dalawang leon ang nakatayo roon sa isang dako at sa kabilang dako sa ibabaw ng anim na baytang: walang nagawang gayon sa alinmang kaharian. 20At ang lahat na sisidlang inuman ni Salomon ay ginto, at ang lahat ng sisidlan sa bahay na kahoy sa gubat ng Libano ay taganas na ginto; ang pilak ay hindi mahalaga sa mga kaarawan ni Salomon. 21Sapagka't ang hari ay may mga sasakyan na nagsisiparoon sa Tharsis na kasama ng mga bataan ni Hiram: minsan sa bawa't tatlong taon ay dumarating ang mga sasakyang dagat ng Tharsis, na nagsisipagdala ng ginto, at pilak, garing, at mga ungoy, at mga pabo real. 22Sa gayo'y ang haring Salomon ay humihigit sa lahat ng hari sa lupa, sa kayamanan at sa karunungan. 23At hinanap ng lahat na hari sa lupa ang harapan ni Salomon, upang magsipakinig ng kaniyang karunungan, na inilagay ng Dios sa kaniyang puso. 24At sila'y nagsipagdala bawa't isa ng kanikaniyang kaloob, na mga sisidlang pilak, at mga sisidlang ginto, at damit, sandata, at mga espesia, mga kabayo, at mga mula, isang takdang kayamanan sa taon-taon. 25At si Salomon ay may apat na libong silungan ng kabayo at mga karo, at labing dalawang libong mangangabayo, na kaniyang mga inilagay sa mga bayan ng mga karo, at kasama ng hari sa Jerusalem. 26At siya'y nagpuno sa lahat ng mga hari mula sa Ilog hanggang sa lupain ng mga Filisteo, at sa hangganan ng Egipto. 27At ginawa ng hari na maging parang mga bato ang pilak sa Jerusalem, at ang mga sedro ay ginawa niyang maging parang mga puno ng sikomoro na nasa mababang lupa, dahil sa kasaganaan. 28At sila'y nagsipagdala ng mga kabayo kay Salomon mula sa Egipto, at mula sa lahat ng mga lupain. 29Ang iba nga sa mga gawa ni Salomon, na una at huli, di ba nangasusulat sa kasaysayan ni Nathan na propeta, at sa panghuhula ni Ahias na Silonita, at sa mga pangitain ni Iddo na tagakita tungkol kay Jeroboam na anak ni Nabat? 30At si Salomon ay naghari sa Jerusalem sa buong Israel na apat na pung taon. 31At natulog si Salomon na kasama ng kaniyang mga magulang, at siya'y nalibing sa bayan ni David na kaniyang ama: at si Roboam na kaniyang anak ay naghari na kahalili niya.
1When the queen of Sheba heard of the fame of Solomon, she came to prove Solomon with hard questions at Jerusalem, with a very great train, and camels that bore spices, and gold in abundance, and precious stones: and when she had come to Solomon, she talked with him of all that was in her heart. 2Solomon told her all her questions; and there was not anything hidden from Solomon which he didn’t tell her. 3When the queen of Sheba had seen the wisdom of Solomon, and the house that he had built, 4and the food of his table, and the sitting of his servants, and the attendance of his ministers, and their clothing, his cup bearers also, and their clothing, and his ascent by which he went up to Yahweh’s house; there was no more spirit in her. 5She said to the king, “It was a true report that I heard in my own land of your acts, and of your wisdom. 6However I didn’t believe their words, until I came, and my eyes had seen it; and behold, the half of the greatness of your wisdom was not told me: you exceed the fame that I heard. 7Happy are your men, and happy are these your servants, who stand continually before you, and hear your wisdom. 8Blessed be Yahweh your God, who delighted in you, to set you on his throne, to be king for Yahweh your God: because your God loved Israel, to establish them forever, therefore made he you king over them, to do justice and righteousness.” 9She gave the king one hundred and twenty talents of gold, and spices in great abundance, and precious stones: neither was there any such spice as the queen of Sheba gave to king Solomon. 10The servants also of Huram, and the servants of Solomon, who brought gold from Ophir, brought algum trees and precious stones. 11The king made of the algum trees terraces for Yahweh’s house, and for the king’s house, and harps and stringed instruments for the singers: and there were none like these seen before in the land of Judah. 12King Solomon gave to the queen of Sheba all her desire, whatever she asked, besides that which she had brought to the king. So she turned, and went to her own land, she and her servants. 13Now the weight of gold that came to Solomon in one year was six hundred and sixty-six talents of gold, 14besides that which the traders and merchants brought: and all the kings of Arabia and the governors of the country brought gold and silver to Solomon. 15King Solomon made two hundred bucklers of beaten gold; six hundred shekels of beaten gold went to one buckler. 16He made three hundred shields of beaten gold; three hundred shekels of gold went to one shield: and the king put them in the house of the forest of Lebanon. 17Moreover the king made a great throne of ivory, and overlaid it with pure gold. 18And there were six steps to the throne, with a footstool of gold, which were fastened to the throne, and stays on either side by the place of the seat, and two lions standing beside the stays. 19Twelve lions stood there on the one side and on the other on the six steps: there was nothing like it made in any kingdom. 20All king Solomon’s drinking vessels were of gold, and all the vessels of the house of the forest of Lebanon were of pure gold: silver was nothing accounted of in the days of Solomon. 21For the king had ships that went to Tarshish with the servants of Huram; once every three years came the ships of Tarshish, bringing gold, and silver, ivory, and apes, and peacocks. 22So king Solomon exceeded all the kings of the earth in riches and wisdom. 23All the kings of the earth sought the presence of Solomon, to hear his wisdom, which God had put in his heart. 24They brought every man his tribute, vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and clothing, armor, and spices, horses, and mules, a rate year by year. 25Solomon had four thousand stalls for horses and chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen, that he stationed in the chariot cities, and with the king at Jerusalem. 26He ruled over all the kings from the River even to the land of the Philistines, and to the border of Egypt. 27The king made silver to be in Jerusalem as stones, and he made cedars to be as the sycamore trees that are in the lowland, for abundance. 28They brought horses for Solomon out of Egypt, and out of all lands. 29Now the rest of the acts of Solomon, first and last, aren’t they written in the history of Nathan the prophet, and in the prophecy of Ahijah the Shilonite, and in the visions of Iddo the seer concerning Jeroboam the son of Nebat? 30Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel forty years. 31Solomon slept with his fathers, and he was buried in the city of David his father: and Rehoboam his son reigned in his place.
1En toen de koningin van Scheba het gerucht van Salomo hoorde, kwam zij, om Salomo met raadselen te verzoeken, te Jeruzalem, met een zeer zwaar heir, en kemelen, dragende specerijen en goud in menigte, en kostelijk gesteente; en zij kwam tot Salomo, en sprak met hem al wat in haar hart was. 2En Salomo verklaarde haar al haar woorden; en geen ding was er verborgen voor Salomo, dat hij haar niet verklaarde. 3Als nu de koningin van Scheba zag de wijsheid van Salomo, en het huis, dat hij gebouwd had, 4En de spijze zijner tafel, en het zitten zijner knechten, en het staan zijner dienaren, en hun kledingen, en zijn schenkers, en hun kledingen, en zijn opgang, waardoor hij opging in het huis des HEEREN, zo was in haar geen geest meer. 5En zij zeide tot den koning: Het is een waarachtig woord geweest, dat ik in mijn land gehoord heb, van uw zaken en van uw wijsheid. 6En ik heb hun woorden niet geloofd, totdat ik gekomen ben, en mijn ogen dat gezien hebben; en zie, de helft van de grootheid uwer wijsheid is mij niet aangezegd; gij hebt overtroffen het gerucht, dat ik gehoord heb. 7Welgelukzalig zijn uw mannen, en welgelukzalig deze uw knechten, die geduriglijk voor uw aangezicht staan, en uw wijsheid horen. 8Geloofd zij de HEERE, uw God, Die behagen in u gehad heeft, om u op Zijn troon, den HEERE, uw God, tot een koning te zetten; overmits uw God Israel bemint, om hetzelve tot in eeuwigheid op te richten, zo heeft Hij u tot een koning over hen gesteld, om recht en gerechtigheid te doen. 9En zij gaf de koning honderd en twintig talenten gouds, en specerijen in grote menigte, en kostelijk gesteente; en er was gelijk deze specerij, die de koningin van Scheba den koning Salomo gaf, geen geweest. 10Verder ook Hurams knechten, en Salomo's knechten, die goud brachten uit Ofir, brachten algummimhout en edelgesteente. 11En de koning maakte van dat algummimhout hoge gangen tot het huis des HEEREN en tot het huis des konings, mitsgaders harpen en luiten voor de zangers; desgelijks ook was te voren in het land van Juda niet geweest. 12En de koning Salomo gaf de koningin van Scheba al haar behagen, wat zij begeerde, behalve hetgeen zij tot den koning gebracht had; zo keerde zij, en toog naar haar land, zij en haar knechten. 13Het gewicht nu van het goud, dat voor Salomo op een jaar inkwam, was zeshonderd zes en zestig talenten gouds; 14Behalve dat zij van de kramers en de kooplieden inbrachten; ook brachten alle koningen van Arabie, en de vorsten deszelven lands, goud en zilver aan Salomo. 15Daartoe maakte de koning Salomo tweehonderd rondassen van geslagen goud; zeshonderd sikkelen van geslagen goud liet hij opwegen tot elke rondas. 16Insgelijks driehonderd schilden van geslagen goud; driehonderd sikkelen gouds liet hij opwegen tot elk schild; en de koning legde ze in het huis des wouds van den Libanon. 17Nog maakte de koning een groten elpenbenen troon, en hij overtoog denzelven met louter goud. 18En de troon had zes trappen en een voetbank van goud, aan den troon vast zijnde, en leuningen aan beide zijden, tot de zitplaats toe; en twee leeuwen stonden bij de leuningen. 19En twaalf leeuwen stonden daar aan beide zijden, op de zes trappen; desgelijks is in geen koninkrijk gemaakt geweest. 20Ook waren alle drinkvaten van den koning Salomo van goud, en alle vaten van het huis des wouds van den Libanon waren van gesloten goud; het zilver was in de dagen van Salomo niet voor iets geacht. 21Want des konings schepen voeren naar Tharsis, met de knechten van Huram; eens in drie jaren kwamen de schepen van Tharsis in, brengende goud, en zilver, elpenbeen, en apen, en pauwen. 22Alzo werd de koning Salomo groter dan alle koningen der aarde in rijkdom en wijsheid. 23En alle koningen der aarde zochten Salomo's aangezicht, om zijn wijsheid te horen, die God in zijn hart gegeven had. 24En zij brachten een ieder zijn geschenk, zilveren vaten, en gouden vaten, en klederen, harnas, en specerijen, paarden, en muilezelen, van elk van jaar tot jaar. 25Ook had Salomo vier duizend paardenstallen, en wagenen, en twaalf duizend ruiteren; en hij legde ze in de wagensteden, en bij den koning te Jeruzalem. 26En hij heerste over alle koningen, van de rivier tot aan het land der Filistijnen, en tot aan de landpale van Egypte. 27Ook maakte de koning het zilver in Jeruzalem te zijn als stenen, en de cederen maakte hij te zijn als de wilde vijgebomen, die in de laagte zijn, in menigte. 28En zij brachten voor Salomo paarden uit Egypte, en uit al die landen. 29Het overige nu der geschiedenissen van Salomo, der eerste en der laatste, zijn die niet geschreven in de woorden van Nathan, den profeet, en in de profetie van Ahia, den Siloniet, en in de gezichten van Jedi, den ziener, aangaande Jerobeam, den zoon van Nebat? 30En Salomo regeerde te Jeruzalem over gans Israel, veertig jaren. 31En Salomo ontsliep met zijn vaderen, en zij begroeven hem in de stad zijns vaders Davids; en zijn zoon Rehabeam werd koning in zijn plaats.
