1And the queen of Sheba is hearing of the fame of Solomon concerning the name of Jehovah, and cometh to try him with enigmas,
1¶ A, no te rongonga o te Kuini o Hepa ki te rongo o Horomona, ki tana i mea ai mo te ingoa o Ihowa, ka haere mai ia ki te whakamatau i a ia ki nga kupu pakeke.
2and she cometh to Jerusalem, with a very great company, camels bearing spices, and very much gold, and precious stone, and she cometh unto Solomon, and speaketh unto him all that hath been with her heart.
2Na haere mai ana ia ki Hiruharama, nui atu hoki te tira, he kamera e waha ana i nga mea kakara, i tona nui o te koura, i te kohatu utu nui; na, i tona haerenga ki a Horomona, ka korerotia e ia ki a ia nga mea katoa i roto i tona ngakau.
3And Solomon declareth to her all her matters — there hath not been a thing hid from the king that he hath not declared to her.
3A whakaaturia ana e Horomona ki a ia te tikanga o ana kupu katoa, kahore he kupu i ngaro i te kingi, i kore te whakaatu ki a ia.
4And the queen of Sheba seeth all the wisdom of Solomon, and the house that he built,
4A, no te kitenga o te Kuini o Hepa i te mohio katoa o Horomona, i te whare hoki i hanga e ia,
5and the food of his table, and the sitting of his servants, and the standing of his ministers, and their clothing, and his butlers, and his burnt-offering that he causeth to ascend in the house of Jehovah, and there hath not been in her any more spirit.
5I te kai o tana tepu, i te nohoanga o ana tangata, i te turanga o ana kaimahi, i o ratou kakahu, i ana kairiringi waina, i tona pikitanga i piki atu ai ki te whare o Ihowa, kore ake he wairua i roto i a ia.
6And she saith unto the king, `True hath been the word that I heard in my land, concerning thy matters and thy wisdom;
6A ka mea ia ki te kingi, Pono tonu nga mea i rongo ai ahau i toku whenua mo au mahi, mo tou mohio.
7and I gave no credence to the words till that I have come, and my eyes see, and lo, it was not declared to me — the half; thou hast added wisdom and goodness unto the report that I heard.
7Heoi kihai ahau i whakapono ki aua korero, a tae noa mai ahau, kite noa oku kanohi. Nana, kihai te hawhe i korerotia ki ahau; nui atu tou mohio, tou pai, i te rongo i rongo ai ahau.
8O the happiness of thy men, O the happiness of thy servants — these — who are standing before thee continually, who are hearing thy wisdom!
8Ano te hari o au tangata, ano te hari o enei pononga au e tu tonu nei i tou aroaro, e whakarongo nei ki tou mohio!
9Jehovah thy God is blessed who delighted in thee, to put thee on the throne of Israel; in Jehovah`s loving Israel to the age He doth set thee for king, to do judgment and righteousness.
9Kia whakapaingia a Ihowa, tou Atua i whakaahuareka nei ki a koe, i homai nei i a koe ki runga ki te torona o Iharaira; he aroha mau tonu hoki no Ihowa ki a Iharaira, na meinga ana koe e ia hei kingi, hei nahi i te whakawa, i te tika.
10And she giveth to the king a hundred and twenty talents of gold, and spices very many, and precious stone; there came not like that spice any more for abundance that the queen of Sheba gave to king Solomon.
10Na homai ana e ia ki te kingi kotahi rau e rua tekau taranata koura, tona tini o nga mea kakara, me nga kohatu utu nui; kahore he mea kakara i tae mai i muri nei hei rite te nui ki enei i homai nei e te Kuini o Hepa ki a Kingi Horomona.
11And also, the navy of Hiram that bore gold from Ophir, brought in from Ophir almug-trees very many, and precious stone;
11A na nga kaipuke o Hirama nana nei i mau mai te koura i Opira, na reira ano i kawe mai nga raku aramuka me nga kohatu utu nui i Opira, tona tini.
12and the king maketh the almug-trees a support for the house of Jehovah, and for the house of the king, and harps and psalteries for singers; there have not come such almug-trees, nor have there been seen [such] unto this day.
12Na ka hanga aua rakau aramuka e te kingi hei pou mo te whare o Ihowa, mo te whare ano o te kingi, he hapa, hei hatere, he mea ma nga kaiwaiata: kahore ano i tae noa mai he rakau aramuka hei rite, kahore hoki i kitea i mua, a taea noatia tenei ra.
13And king Solomon gave to the queen of Sheba all her desire that she asked, apart from that which he gave to her as a memorial of king Solomon, and she turneth and goeth to her land, she and her servants.
13Na ka hoatu e Kingi Horomona ki te Kuini o Hepa nga mea katoa i pai ai ia, ana hoki i tono ai, he tapiri ki runga ki nga mea i hoatu e te ringa o Kingi Horomona ki a ia. Heoi ka tahuri ia, a haere ana ratou ko ana tangata ki tona whenua.
14And the weight of the gold that hath come to Solomon in one year is six hundred sixty and six talents of gold,
14¶ Na, ko te taimaha o te koura i tae ki a Horomona i te tau kotahi, e ono rau e ono tekau ma ono taranata koura;
15apart from [that of] the tourists, and of the traffic of the merchants, and of all the kings of Arabia, and of the governors of the land.
15Haunga a nga kairapu taonga, i mau mai ai me nga taonga a nga kaihokohoko, a nga kingi katoa o Arapia, a nga kawana o te whenua.
16And king Solomon maketh two hundred targets of alloyed gold — six hundred of gold go up on the one target;
16Na ka hanga e Kingi Horomona etahi pukupuku, e rua rau, he mea patu te koura: e ono rau nga hekere koura ki te pukupuku kotahi.
17and three hundred shields of alloyed gold — three pounds of gold go up on the one shield; and the king putteth them [in] the house of the forest of Lebanon.
17A i hangaia e ia etahi pukupuku iti iho e toru rau, he mea patu te koura: e toru pauna koura ki te pukupuku kotahi: a hoatu ana e te kingi ki te whare o te ngahere o Repanona.
18And the king maketh a great throne of ivory, and overlayeth it with refined gold;
18A i hanga e te kingi tetahi torona nui ki te rei, whakakikoruatia iho ki te koura pai rawa.
19six steps hath the throne, and a round top [is] to the throne behind it, and hands [are] on this [side] and on that, unto the place of the sitting, and two lions are standing near the hands,
19E ono nga kaupae ki te torona, he mea porotaka a runga o muri o te torona; he okiokinga ringa ano kei te wahi e nohoia ana, i tetahi taha, i tetahi taha, e rua ano nga raiona e tu ana i te taha o nga okiokinga.
20and twelve lions are standing there on the six steps, on this [side] and on that; it hath not been made so for any kingdom.
20Kotahi tekau ma rua hoki nga raiona i reira e tu ana i tetahi taha, i tetahi taha, i runga i nga kaupae e ono; kahore he mea pera i hanga i tetahi atu rangatiratanga.
21And all the drinking vessels of king Solomon [are] of gold, and all the vessels of the house of the forest of Lebanon [are] of refined gold — there are none of silver; it was not reckoned in the days of Solomon for anything,
21Na, ko nga oko inu katoa a kingi Horomona, he koura kau; me nga oko katoa o te whare o te ngahere o Repanona, he koura parakore; kahore he hiriwa: kihai tera i kiia he mea nui nga ra o Horomona.
22for a navy of Tarshish hath the king at sea with a navy of Hiram; once in three years cometh the navy of Tarshish, bearing gold, and silver, ivory, and apes, and peacocks.
22He maha hoki a te kingi kaipuke ki Tarahihi i te moana, he mea huihui ki nga kaipuke a Hirama: kotahi te unga mai i nga tau e toru o nga kaipuke o Tarahihi, hei kawe mai i te koura, i te hiriwa, i te rei, i nga makimaki, me nga pikake.
23And king Solomon is greater than any of the kings of the earth for riches and for wisdom,
23Na nui atu a Kingi Horomona i nga kingi katoa o te whenua te whai taonga, te mohio.
24and all the earth is seeking the presence of Solomon, to hear his wisdom that God hath put into his heart,
24I whaia ano a Horomona e nga whenua katoa, kia rongo ai ratou i tona mohio i homai nei e te Atua ki tona ngakau.
25and they are bringing each his present, vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and garments, and armour, and spices, horses, and mules, the matter of a year in a year.
25Me te kawe mai ano ratou i tana hakari, i tana hakari, i nga oko hiriwa, i nga oko koura, i nga kakahu, i nga mea mo te whawhai, i nga kakara reka, i nga hoiho, i nga muera, he mea tatau a tau tonu.
26And Solomon gathereth chariots, and horsemen, and he hath a thousand and four hundred chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen, and he placeth them in the cities of the chariot, and with the king in Jerusalem.
26Na ka amia e Horomona he hariata, he kaieke hoiho: kotahi mano e wha rau ana hariata, tekau ma rua mano nga kainoho hoiho, he mea wehe nana ki nga pa hariata, ki te kingi hoki, ki Hiruharama.
27And the king maketh the silver in Jerusalem as stones, and the cedars he hath made as the sycamores that [are] in the low country, for abundance.
27Na meinga ana te hiriwa e te kingi ki Hiruharama kia rite ki te kohatu; i meinga ano e ia nga hita kia rite ki te hokamora i te raorao te tini.
28And the outgoing of the horses that king Solomon hath [is] from Egypt, and from Keveh; merchants of the king take from Keveh at a price;
28A, ko nga hoiho o Horomona, he mea mau mai i Ihipa; na nga kaihoko a te kingi i tango kahui mai, tena kahui me tona utu.
29and a chariot cometh up and cometh out of Egypt for six hundred silverlings, and a horse for fifty and a hundred, and so for all the kings of the Hittites, and for the kings of Aram; by their hand they bring out.
29Na e ono rau nga hekere hiriwa i riro ai te hariata i puta ai i Ihipa, kotahi rau e rima tekau i riro ai te hoiho: ko ratou hei kawe mo nga kingi katoa o nga Hiti, mo nga kingi o Hiria.
