¹[My namangian'ny mpanjakavavin'i Sheba an'i Solomona] Ary ny mpanjakavavin'i Sheba, rehefa nahare ny lazan'i Solomona ny amin'ny anaran'i Jehovah. dia avy hizaha toetra azy amin'ny fanontaniana sarotra,

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

²ka tonga tany Jerosalema izy mbamin'ny mpanaraka maro be sy ny rameva izay nitondra zava-manitra sy volamena sesehena ary vato soa; ary rehefa tonga tany amin'i Solomona izy, dia nilaza taminy izay rehetra tao ampony.

²She came to Jerusalem with a very great train, with camels that bore spices, and very much gold, and precious stones; and when she had come to Solomon, she talked with him of all that was in her heart.

³Ary voavalin'i Solomona izy tamin'izay rehetra nanontaniany azy; tsy nisy zavatra niafina tamin'ny mpanjaka, ka dia nambarany azy avokoa.

³Solomon told her all her questions: there was not anything hidden from the king which he didn’t tell her.

⁴Ary rehefa hitan'ilay mpanjakavavin'i Sheba ny fahendren'i Solomona rehetra sy ny trano izay nataony

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

⁵sy ny fihinany teo amin'ny latabany sy ny fipetrahan'ny tandapany sy ny fitoeran'ny mpanompony mbamin'ny fitafian'ireo sy ny mpitondra kapoakany ary ny ambaratonga izay niakarany ho ao an-tranon'i Jehovah, dia talanjona terỳ izy. [Na: ny fanatitra odorany izay nateriny tao]

⁵and the food of his table, and the sitting of his servants, and the attendance of his ministers, and their clothing, and his cup bearers, and his ascent by which he went up to the house of Yahweh; there was no more spirit in her.

⁶Ka hoy izy tamin'ny mpanjaka: Marina ny teny efa reko tany amin'ny taniko ny amin'ny teninao sy ny fahendrenao.

⁶She said to the king, “It was a true report that I heard in my own land of your acts, and of your wisdom.

⁷kanefa tsy nino ny filazana aho, raha tsy tonga atỳ, ka ny masoko no mahita, kanjo hay! na dia ny antsasany aza tsy voalaza tamiko akory: fa, indro, ny fahendrenao sy ny voninahitrao dia mihoatra lavitra noho izay laza efa reko.

⁷However I didn’t believe the words, until I came, and my eyes had seen it. Behold, the half was not told me! Your wisdom and prosperity exceed the fame which I heard.

⁸Sambatra lahy ny olonao, ary sambatra ireto tandapanao ireto, izay mijanona eto anatrehanao mandrakariva ka mandre ny fahendrenao

⁸Happy are your men, happy are these your servants, who stand continually before you, who hear your wisdom.

⁹Isaorana anie Jehovah Andriamanitrao, Izay tia anao ka nametraka anao amin'ny seza fiandrianan'ny Isiraely; fa noho ny fitiavan'i Jehovah, izay itiavany ny Isiraely mandrakizay, no nanaovany anao ho mpanjaka mba hanao fitsarana sy fahamarinana.

⁹Blessed is Yahweh your God, who delighted in you, to set you on the throne of Israel. Because Yahweh loved Israel forever, therefore made he you king, to do justice and righteousness.”

¹⁰Ary izy nanome talenta volamena roa-polo amby zato sy zava-manitra sesehena ary vato soa ho an'ny mpanjaka; tsy nisy intsony zava-manitra be indrindra tonga tahaka ilay nomen'ny mpanjakavavin'i Sheba ho an'i Solomona mpanjaka.

¹⁰She gave the king one hundred 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.

¹¹Ary ny sambon'i Hirama koa, izay naka volamena avy any Ofira, dia nitondra hazo almoga be indrindra sy vato soa avy any Ofira.

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

¹²Ary ny hazo almoga dia nataon'ny mpanjaka arofanina tamin'ny tranon'i Jehovah sy ny lapan'andriana ary nataony lokanga sy valiha ho an'ny mpihira kosa; tsy nisy hazo almoga tonga tany na hita toy izany intsony mandraka androany.

¹²The king made of the almug trees pillars for the house of Yahweh, and for the king’s house, harps also and stringed instruments for the singers: there came no such almug trees, nor were seen, to this day.

¹³Ary Solomona mpanjaka nanome ny mpanjakavavin'i Sheba kosa izay rehetra niriny, na inona na inona nangatahiny, afa-tsy izay nomeny azy araka ny fanomen'i Solomona mpanjaka; ka dia niverina izy, ary lasa nody tany amin'ny taniny izy mbamin'ny mpanompony.

¹³King Solomon gave to the queen of Sheba all her desire, whatever 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.

¹⁴[Ny varotra nataon'i Solomona mbamin'ny hareny sy ny voninahiny] Ary ny lanjan'ny volamena izay tonga tao amin'i Solomona isan-taona dia talenta volamena enina amby enim-polo amby enin-jato,

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

¹⁵afa-tsy izay azony tamin'ny mpandranto.sy ny tamin'ny varotry ny mpivarotra ary tamin'ny mpanjakan'ny firenena samy hafa rehetra sy tamin'ny mpanapaka ny tany.

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

¹⁶Ary Solomona mpanjaka nanao ampinga volamena lehibe roan-jato tamin'ny volamena voafisaka, ka takela-bolamena sekely enin-jato no napetaka tamin'ny ampinga lehibe iray.

¹⁶King Solomon made two hundred bucklers of beaten gold; six hundred shekels of gold went to one buckler.

¹⁷Ary nanao ampinga volamena telonjato koa izy tamin'ny volamena voafisaka, ka takela-bolamena telo mane no napetaka tamin'ny ampinga iray. Dia napetraky ny mpanjaka tao amin'ny trano Alan'i Libanona ireo.

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

¹⁸Ary ny mpanjaka dia nanao seza fiandrianana ivory lehibe, ka nopetahany takela-bolamena tsara indrindra.

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

¹⁹Nisy ambaratonga enina tamin'ny seza fiandrianana; ary ny lohan'ny seza fiandrianana, dia boribory ny eo an damosiny; ary nisy fitehenan-tanana teo an-daniny roa amin'ny fipetrahana; ary nisy sarin-diona roa teo an-danin'ny fitehenan-tanana.

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.

²⁰Ary nisy sarin-diona roa ambin'ny folo teo an-daniny roa teo amin'ny ambaratonga enina. Tsy nisy natao tahaka izany tany amin'ny fanjakana rehetra.

²⁰Twelve lions stood there on the one side and on the other on the six steps: there was nothing like it made in any kingdom.

²¹Ary ny fisotroan'i Solomona mpanjaka dia volamena, ary ny fanaka rehetra tao amin'ny trano Alan'i Libanona koa dia volamena tsara avokoa; tsy nisy volafotsy ireo; fa nataony toy ny tsinontsinona izany tamin'ny andron'i Solomona.

²¹All 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.

²²Fa ny mpanjaka nanana sambon'i Tarsisy mbamin'ny sambon'i Hirama teny ambonin'ny ranomasina; ary indray mandeha amin'ny telo taona no nihavian'ny sambon'i Tarsisy nitondra volamena sy volafotsy sy ivory sy rajako ary vorombola.[pavo]

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.

²³Ary Solomona mpanjaka dia nanankarena sady hendry noho ny mpanjaka rehetra ambonin'ny tany.

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

²⁴Ary ny tany rehetra nitady hahita ny tavan'i Solomona mba hihaino ny fahendrena izay nataon'Andriamanitra tao am-pony.

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

²⁵Ary izy rehetra dia samy nahatonga ny anjarany avy isan-taona, dia fanaka volafotsy sy fanaka volamena sy fitafiana sy fiadiana sy zava-manitra sy soavaly ary ampondra.

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

²⁶Ary Solomona nanangona kalesy sy mpitaingin-tsoavaly; ary nanana kalesy efajato amby arivo izy sy mpitaingin-tsoavaly roa arivo amby iray alina, izay nataony tao amin'ireo tanàna fitoeran'ny kalesy sy tao amin'ny mpanjaka tany Jerosalema.

²⁶Solomon 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.

²⁷Ary nataon'ny mpanjaka tahaka ny vato ny habetsaky ny volafotsy tany Jerosalema, ary ny hazo sedera nataony toy ny aviavy eny amin'ny tany lemaka amoron-tsiraka.[Heb. Sefela]

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

²⁸Ary avy any Egypta no nahazoan'i Solomona soavaly; ary ny iray toko tamin'ny mpandranton'ny mpanjaka dia naka ny andiany iray araka izay vidiny voatendry.Ary ny vidin'ny kalesy iray nentiny niakatra avy tany Egypta dia sekely volafotsy enin-jato, ary ny soavaly dia dimam-polo amby zato avy; ary toy izany kosa no nitondrany ho an'ny mpanjakan'ny Hetita sy ny mpanjakan'ny Syriana.

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

²⁹Ary ny vidin'ny kalesy iray nentiny niakatra avy tany Egypta dia sekely volafotsy enin-jato, ary ny soavaly dia dimam-polo amby zato avy; ary toy izany kosa no nitondrany ho an'ny mpanjakan'ny Hetita sy ny mpanjakan'ny Syriana.

²⁹A chariot came up and went out of Egypt for six hundred shekels of silver, and a horse for one hundred fifty; and so for all the kings of the Hittites, and for the kings of Syria, they brought them out by their means.
