¹And when the queen of Sheba heard of the fame of Solomon concerning the name of Jehovah, she came to prove him with hard questions.

¹Kui Seeba kuninganna kuulis Saalomoni kuulsusest Issanda nime tõttu, siis ta tuli teda mõistuküsimustega kimbutama.

²And 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.

²Ta tuli Jeruusalemma väga suure saatjaskonnaga ja kaamelitega, kes kandsid palsameid, väga palju kulda ja kalliskive. Ja kui ta jõudis Saalomoni juurde, siis ta kõneles temaga kõigest, mis tal südame peal oli.

³And Solomon told her all her questions: there was not anything hid from the king which he told her not.

³Aga Saalomon vastas kõigile tema küsimustele; ükski tema küsimus ei olnud kuningale liiga raske, ta suutis vastata kõigile.

⁴And when the queen of Sheba had seen all the wisdom of Solomon, and the house that he had built,

⁴Kui Seeba kuninganna nägi kõike Saalomoni tarkust, ja koda, mille ta oli ehitanud,

⁵and 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 Jehovah; there was no more spirit in her.

⁵rooga ta laual, kuidas ta sulased istusid, tema teenrite teenimist ja nende riietust, tema jooke ja tema põletusohvreid, mis ta ohverdas Issanda kojas, siis ta jäi otse hingetuks.

⁶And she said to the king, It was a true report that I heard in mine own land of thine acts, and of thy wisdom.

⁶Ja ta ütles kuningale: 'See kõne oli tõsi, mis ma oma maal kuulsin sinust ja sinu tarkusest.

⁷Howbeit I believed not the words, until I came, and mine eyes had seen it: and, behold, the half was not told me; thy wisdom and prosperity exceed the fame which I heard.

⁷Aga mina ei uskunud neid jutte enne, kui ma tulin ja nägin oma silmaga; ja vaata, mulle ei olnud räägitud pooltki. Sinul on rohkem tarkust ja vara kui kuulduses, mida ma olin kuulnud.

⁸Happy are thy men, happy are these thy servants, that stand continually before thee, [and] that hear thy wisdom.

⁸Õnnelikud on su mehed, õnnelikud on need su sulased, kes seisavad alati su ees ja kuulevad su tarkust.

⁹Blessed be Jehovah thy God, who delighted in thee, to set thee on the throne of Israel: because Jehovah loved Israel for ever, therefore made he thee king, to do justice and righteousness.

⁹Kiidetud olgu Issand, su Jumal, kellele sa nõnda meeldisid, et ta pani su Iisraeli aujärjele! Sellepärast et Issand Iisraeli igavesti armastab, on ta sind pannud kuningaks, et sa teeksid, mis on kohus ja õige.'

¹⁰And she gave the king a 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.

¹⁰Ja ta andis kuningale sada kakskümmend talenti kulda ning väga palju palsameid ja kalliskive; nii suurt hulka palsameid kui see, mis Seeba kuninganna andis kuningas Saalomonile, ei toodud enam kunagi.

¹¹And the navy also of Hiram, that brought gold from Ophir, brought in from Ophir great plenty of almug-trees and precious stones.

¹¹Ka Hiirami laevad, mis olid toonud kulda Oofirist, tõid Oofirist väga palju almugipuud ja kalliskive.

¹²And the king made of the almug-trees pillars for the house of Jehovah, and for the king's house, harps also and psalteries for the singers: there came no such almug-trees, nor were seen, unto this day.

¹²Ja kuningas valmistas almugipuust tugiosad Issanda kojale ja kuningakojale, samuti kandleid ja naableid lauljaile; niisugust almugipuud ei ole toodud ega nähtud enam tänapäevani.

¹³And king Solomon gave to the queen of Sheba all her desire, whatsoever she asked, besides that which Solomon gave her of his royal bounty. So she turned, and went to her own land, she and her servants.

¹³Ja kuningas Saalomon andis Seeba kuningannale kõike, mida ta soovis ja palus, lisaks sellele, mis temale oli antud kuningas Saalomoni jõu kohaselt; siis kuninganna pöördus ümber ja läks tagasi oma maale, tema ja ta sulased.

¹⁴Now the weight of gold that came to Solomon in one year was six hundred threescore and six talents of gold,

¹⁴Ja kulla kaal, mis tuli Saalomoni kätte ühe aasta jooksul, oli kuussada kuuskümmend kuus talenti kulda,

¹⁵besides [that which] the traders [brought], and the traffic of the merchants, and of all the kings of the mingled people, and of the governors of the country.

¹⁵lisaks see, mis tuli suurkaupmeestelt ja kaubitsejate tulust, samuti kõigilt Araabia kuningailt ja maa asevalitsejailt.

¹⁶And king Solomon made two hundred bucklers of beaten gold; six hundred [shekels] of gold went to one buckler.

¹⁶Ja kuningas Saalomon valmistas kakssada suurt kilpi taotud kullast, tarvitades kuussada seeklit kulda üheks kilbiks;

¹⁷And [he made] three hundred shields of beaten gold; three pounds of gold went to one shield: and the king put them in the house of the forest of Lebanon.

¹⁷ja kolmsada väiksemat kilpi taotud kullast, tarvitades kolm miini kulda üheks kilbiks; ja kuningas pani need Liibanonimetsakotta.

¹⁸Moreover the king made a great throne of ivory, and overlaid it with the finest gold.

¹⁸Ja kuningas valmistas suure elevandiluust aujärje ning kattis selle puhta kullaga.

¹⁹There were six steps to the throne, and the top of the throne was round behind; and there were stays on either side by the place of the seat, and two lions standing beside the stays.

¹⁹Aujärjel oli kuus astet ja aujärje tagakülg oli pealt ümmargune; kummalgi pool istepaika olid käetoed ja käetugede kõrval seisid kaks lõvi.

²⁰And 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.

²⁰Ja seal seisid kaksteist lõvi kummalgi pool kuuel astmel; niisugust ei ole valmistatud mitte üheski muus kuningriigis.

²¹And 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.

²¹Ja kõik kuningas Saalomoni joogiriistad olid kullast, samuti olid kõik Liibanonimetsakoja riistad puhtast kullast; hõbedasi ei olnudki, seda ei peetud Saalomoni ajal mikski,

²²For the king had at sea a navy of Tarshish with the navy of Hiram: once every three years came the navy of Tarshish, bringing gold, and silver, ivory, and apes, and peacocks.

²²sest kuningal olid merel Tarsise laevad koos Hiirami laevadega: igal kolmandal aastal tulid Tarsise laevad ja tõid kulda ja hõbedat, elevandiluud, pärdikuid ja paabulinde.

²³So king Solomon exceeded all the kings of the earth in riches and in wisdom.

²³Ja kuningas Saalomon sai rikkuse ja tarkuse poolest suurimaks kõigist kuningaist maa peal.

²⁴And all the earth sought the presence of Solomon, to hear his wisdom, which God had put in his heart.

²⁴Ja kogu maailm püüdis näha saada Saalomoni palet, et kuulda tema tarkust, mille Jumal oli pannud tema südamesse.

²⁵And they brought every man his tribute, vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and raiment, and armor, and spices, horses, and mules, a rate year by year.

²⁵Ja nad tõid igaüks oma anni: hõbe- ja kuldriistu, riideid, relvi, palsameid, hobuseid ja muulasid; nõnda aastast aastasse.

²⁶And Solomon gathered together chariots and horsemen: and he had a thousand and four hundred chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen, that he bestowed in the chariot cities, and with the king at Jerusalem.

²⁶Ja Saalomon kogus sõjavankreid ja ratsanikke, ja tal oli tuhat nelisada sõjavankrit ja kaksteist tuhat ratsanikku; need ta paigutas vankrilinnadesse ja kuninga juurde Jeruusalemma.

²⁷And the king made silver to be in Jerusalem as stones, and cedars made he to be as the sycomore-trees that are in the lowland, for abundance.

²⁷Ja kuningas hoolitses, et Jeruusalemmas oli hõbedat nagu kive, ja seedripuid nõnda palju nagu metsviigipuid Madalmaal.

²⁸And the horses which Solomon had were brought out of Egypt; and the king's merchants received them in droves, each drove at a price.

²⁸Saalomoni hobused olid toodud Egiptusest ja Kiliikiast; kuninga ülesostjad tõid neid Kiliikiast kindla hinna eest.

²⁹And a chariot came up and went out of Egypt for six hundred [shekels] of silver, and a horse for a 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.

²⁹Egiptusest toodi vanker kuuesaja hõbeseekli eest ja hobune saja viiekümne eest, ja nõnda toodi neid nende vahendusel kõigile hettide ja süürlaste kuningaile.
