1 Wa 10
Haitian Creole Version
10 ¶ Larenn peyi Saba tande pale ki kalite moun Salomon te ye ak jan sa te sèvi yon lwanj pou Seyè a. Li vwayaje pou lavil Jerizalèm pou l' sonde konesans Salomon avèk kèk keksyon difisil.
2 Se konsa, li rive lavil Jerizalèm avèk yon pakèt moun ak anpil chamo chaje fèy santi bon, bèl pyè koute chè ak kantite lò. Lè li rive devan Salomon, li mande l' tout kalite keksyon li te fè lide mande l'.
3 Salomon menm reponn tout keksyon l' yo. pa t' gen anyen ki te twò difisil ni pou li reponn ni pou li esplike.
4 Larenn peyi Saba a wè jan Salomon te gen anpil bon konprann. Li wè palè li te bati a.
5 Li wè kalite manje yo te sèvi sou tab li ak kay li te fè bati pou chèf li yo, jan li te òganize moun k'ap travay nan palè a, rad inifòm yo te genyen, domestik ki t'ap sèvi l' bweson, ak bèt li te ofri pou boule nèt pou Seyè a nan Tanp lan. Lè li wè tou sa, li pèdi lapawòl tèlman li te sezi.
6 Li di wa Salomon konsa: -Sa m' te tande nan peyi m' sou ou ak sou bon konprann ou an, se te vre!
7 Men, mwen pa t' vle kwè toutotan mwen pa t' vini wè ak je pa mwen. Men, sa m' te tande a se pa mwatye sa m' wè a. Bon konprann ou ak richès ou pi plis pase sa yo te di m' lan.
8 Ala bèl chans madanm ou yo genyen! Ala bèl chans moun k'ap travay avè ou yo genyen! Yo toujou la devan ou ap tande pawòl bon konprann k'ap soti nan bouch ou!
9 Lwanj pou Seyè a, Bondye ou la! Li moutre jan li kontan avè ou. Li mete ou wa peyi Izrayèl la. Li menm ki renmen peyi Izrayèl la pou tout tan, li mete ou wa pou ou ka kenbe peyi a nan lòd, nan bon chemen san patipri.
10 Larenn lan fè wa a kado senk tòn lò ak kantite fèy santi bon ak anpil pyè koute chè. Wa a pa janm resevwa nan lavi li kantite fèy santi bon larenn Saba te ba li lè sa a.
11 Batiman Iram yo ki te al chache lò nan peyi Ofi, te pote soti nan menm peyi sa a yon gwo kantite bwa koray ak anpil bèl pyè koute chè.
12 Salomon sèvi ak bwa koray la pou fè balistrad nan tanp lan ak nan palè a. Li fè gita ak bandjo pou mizisyen yo ak bwa sa a tou. Se te pi bon kalite bwa koray yo te janm fè antre nan peyi Izrayèl. Depi lè sa a yo pa janm wè sa ankò.
13 Wa Salomon te bay larenn peyi Saba a tou sa li te mande l', san konte lòt kado li menm, wa Salomon, li te vle ba li. Apre sa, larenn lan tounen nan peyi Saba ansanm ak tout moun ki te avè l' yo.
14 ¶ Chak lanne wa Salomon te resevwa vennsenk tòn lò,
15 san konte lajan li resevwa nan men moun k'ap fè trafik, nan men moun k'ap fè komès, nan men wa peyi Arabi yo ak nan men gouvènè pèp Izrayèl yo.
16 Salomon te fè fè desan (200) gwo plak pwotèj an fè. Lèfini, li fè kouvri yo chak ak yon kouch lò ki peze kenz liv.
17 Li fè fè tou twasan ti plak pwotèj an fè, li fè kouvri yo chak ak yon kouch lò ki peze kat liv. Li mete tout plak pwotèj sa yo nan Salon Rakbwa peyi Liban an.
18 Li fè fè yon gwo fotèy ak kòn elefan. Li fè kouvri l' ak pi bon kalite lò ki genyen.
19 Pou rive bò fotèy la, se pou ou te moute sis mach eskalye. Dèyè fotèy la te gen pòtre yon gwo tèt towo. Sou kote manch yo sou chak bò, te gen pòtre yon lyon.
20 Te gen douz lyon sou macheskalye yo, de sou chak mach, nan de pwent yo. Pa t' gen ankenn lòt peyi ki te gen fotèy pou w'a parèy ak fotèy sa a.
21 Tout gode wa Salomon te sèvi pou l' bwè te fèt an lò. Tout bagay ki te sèvi nan Salon Rakbwa peyi Liban an te fèt ak bon lò. Yo pa t' sèvi ak ajan menm, paske nan tan Salomon ajan pa t' vo anyen.
22 Li te gen kantite batiman pa l' ki t'ap vwayaje toupatou sou lanmè ansanm ak batiman Iram yo. Chak twazan, batiman yo tounen, yo pote lò, ajan, kòn elefan, pan ak makak.
23 Wa Salomon te pi rich pase tout lòt wa yo, li te gen plis bon konprann pase yo tout.
24 Tout moun toupatou te vle vin wè l' pou tande pawòl bon konprann Bondye te mete nan bouch li.
25 Chak moun ki te vini te pote kado pou li: bagay fèt an ajan ak an lò, rad, zam, fèy santi bon, chwal ak milèt. Chak lanne se te konsa.
26 Salomon te sanble mil katsan (1.400) cha lagè ak douzmil (12.000) chwal pou sòlda kavalye yo. Li mete yon pòsyon ladan yo nan lavil li te fè bati tout espre pou yo. Rès yo, li mete yo bò kote l' lavil Jerizalèm.
27 Pandan tout rèy wa a, ajan te tankou wòch lavil Jerizalèm. Bwa sèd menm, ou te jwenn sa an kantite tankou pye sikomò nan rakbwa ki nan plenn peyi Jida yo.
28 Chwal Salomon yo te soti nan peyi Lejip ak nan peyi Silisi. Wa a te gen moun pa l' ki te konn al achte chwal yo pou li la.
29 Chak cha lagè achte nan peyi Lejip te koute sisan (600) pyès ajan, chak chwal te koute sansenkant (150) pyès ajan. Se menm moun sa yo ki te konn al achte chwal pou revann wa peyi Et yo ak wa peyi Siri yo.
1 Kings 10
New International Version
1 Kings 10
New International Version
The Queen of Sheba Visits Solomon(A)
10 When the queen of Sheba(B) heard about the fame(C) of Solomon and his relationship to the Lord, she came to test Solomon with hard questions.(D) 2 Arriving at Jerusalem with a very great caravan(E)—with camels carrying spices, large quantities of gold, and precious stones—she came to Solomon and talked with him about all that she had on her mind. 3 Solomon answered all her questions; nothing was too hard for the king to explain to her. 4 When the queen of Sheba saw all the wisdom of Solomon and the palace he had built, 5 the food on his table,(F) the seating of his officials, the attending servants in their robes, his cupbearers, and the burnt offerings he made at[a] the temple of the Lord, she was overwhelmed.
6 She said to the king, “The report I heard in my own country about your achievements and your wisdom is true. 7 But I did not believe(G) these things until I came and saw with my own eyes. Indeed, not even half was told me; in wisdom and wealth(H) you have far exceeded the report I heard. 8 How happy your people must be! How happy your officials, who continually stand before you and hear(I) your wisdom! 9 Praise(J) be to the Lord your God, who has delighted in you and placed you on the throne of Israel. Because of the Lord’s eternal love(K) for Israel, he has made you king to maintain justice(L) and righteousness.”
10 And she gave the king 120 talents[b] of gold,(M) large quantities of spices, and precious stones. Never again were so many spices brought in as those the queen of Sheba gave to King Solomon.
11 (Hiram’s ships brought gold from Ophir;(N) and from there they brought great cargoes of almugwood[c] and precious stones. 12 The king used the almugwood to make supports[d] for the temple of the Lord and for the royal palace, and to make harps and lyres for the musicians. So much almugwood has never been imported or seen since that day.)
13 King Solomon gave the queen of Sheba all she desired and asked for, besides what he had given her out of his royal bounty. Then she left and returned with her retinue to her own country.
Solomon’s Splendor(O)
14 The weight of the gold(P) that Solomon received yearly was 666 talents,[e] 15 not including the revenues from merchants and traders and from all the Arabian kings and the governors of the territories.
16 King Solomon made two hundred large shields(Q) of hammered gold; six hundred shekels[f] of gold went into each shield. 17 He also made three hundred small shields of hammered gold, with three minas[g] of gold in each shield. The king put them in the Palace of the Forest of Lebanon.(R)
18 Then the king made a great throne covered with ivory and overlaid with fine gold. 19 The throne had six steps, and its back had a rounded top. On both sides of the seat were armrests, with a lion standing beside each of them. 20 Twelve lions stood on the six steps, one at either end of each step. Nothing like it had ever been made for any other kingdom. 21 All King Solomon’s goblets were gold, and all the household articles in the Palace of the Forest of Lebanon were pure gold.(S) Nothing was made of silver, because silver was considered of little value in Solomon’s days. 22 The king had a fleet of trading ships[h](T) at sea along with the ships(U) of Hiram. Once every three years it returned, carrying gold, silver and ivory, and apes and baboons.
23 King Solomon was greater in riches(V) and wisdom(W) than all the other kings of the earth. 24 The whole world sought audience with Solomon to hear the wisdom(X) God had put in his heart. 25 Year after year, everyone who came brought a gift(Y)—articles of silver and gold, robes, weapons and spices, and horses and mules.
26 Solomon accumulated chariots and horses;(Z) he had fourteen hundred chariots and twelve thousand horses,[i] which he kept in the chariot cities and also with him in Jerusalem. 27 The king made silver as common(AA) in Jerusalem as stones,(AB) and cedar as plentiful as sycamore-fig(AC) trees in the foothills. 28 Solomon’s horses were imported from Egypt and from Kue[j]—the royal merchants purchased them from Kue at the current price. 29 They imported a chariot from Egypt for six hundred shekels of silver, and a horse for a hundred and fifty.[k] They also exported them to all the kings of the Hittites(AD) and of the Arameans.
