2 Chronicles 9

示巴女王听见所罗门的名声，就来到耶路撒冷，要用难解的话试问所罗门；跟随她的人甚多，又有骆驼驮着香料、宝石，和许多金子。她来见了所罗门，就把心里所有的对所罗门都说出来。

shì bā nǚ wáng tīng jiàn suǒ luó mén de míng shēng ， jiù lái dào yē lù sā lěng ， yào yòng nán jiě de huà shì wèn suǒ luó mén ； gēn suí tā de rén shèn duō ， yòu yǒu luò tuó tuó zhe xiāng liào 、 bǎo shí ， hé xǔ duō jīn zǐ 。 tā lái jiàn le suǒ luó mén ， jiù bǎ xīn lǐ suǒ yǒu de duì suǒ luó mén dōu shuō chū lái 。

When the queen of Sheba heard of the fame of Solomon, she came to test Solomon with hard questions at Jerusalem, with a very great caravan, including camels that bore spices, gold in abundance, and precious stones. When she had come to Solomon, she talked with him about all that was in her heart.

所罗门将她所问的都答上了，没有一句不明白、不能答的。

suǒ luó mén jiàng tā suǒ wèn de dōu dá shàng le ， méi yǒu yí jù bù míng bái 、 bù néng dá de 。

Solomon answered all her questions. There wasn’t anything hidden from Solomon which he didn’t tell her.

示巴女王见所罗门的智慧和他所建造的宫室、

shì bā nǚ wáng jiàn suǒ luó mén de zhì huì hé tā suǒ jiàn zào de gōng shì 、

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

席上的珍馐美味、群臣分列而坐、仆人两旁侍立，以及他们的衣服装饰、酒政，和酒政的衣服装饰，又见他上耶和华殿的台阶，就诧异得神不守舍，

xí shàng de zhēn xiū měi wèi 、 qún chén fēn liè ér zuò 、 pú rén liǎng páng shì lì ， yǐ jí tā men de yī fu zhuāng shì 、 jiǔ zhèng ， hé jiǔ zhèng de yī fu zhuāng shì ， yòu jiàn tā shàng yē hé huá diàn de tái jiē ， jiù chà yì dé shén bù shǒu shě ，

the food of his table, the seating of his servants, the attendance of his ministers, their clothing, his cup bearers and their clothing, and his ascent by which he went up to the LORD’s house, there was no more spirit in her.

对王说：「我在本国里所听见论到你的事和你的智慧实在是真的！

duì wáng shuō ：「 wǒ zài běn guó lǐ suǒ tīng jiàn lùn dào nǐ de shì hé nǐ de zhì huì shí zài shì zhēn de ！

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

我先不信那些话，及至我来亲眼见了，才知道你的大智慧；人所告诉我的，还不到一半；你的实迹越过我所听见的名声。

wǒ xiān bú xìn nà xiē huà ， jí zhì wǒ lái qīn yǎn jiàn le ， cái zhī dào nǐ de dà zhì huì ； rén suǒ gào sù wǒ de ， hái bú dào yí bàn ； nǐ de shí jì yuè guò wǒ suǒ tīng jiàn de míng shēng 。

However I didn’t believe their words until I came, and my eyes had seen it; and behold half of the greatness of your wisdom wasn’t told me. You exceed the fame that I heard!

你的群臣、你的仆人常侍立在你面前听你智慧的话是有福的。

nǐ de qún chén 、 nǐ de pú rén cháng shì lì zài nǐ miàn qián tīng nǐ zhì huì de huà shì yǒu fú de 。

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

耶和华—你的 神是应当称颂的！他喜悦你，使你坐他的国位，为耶和华—你的 神作王；因为你的 神爱以色列人，要永远坚立他们，所以立你作他们的王，使你秉公行义。」

yē hé huá — nǐ de shén shì yīng dāng chēng sòng de ！ tā xǐ yuè nǐ ， shǐ nǐ zuò tā de guó wèi ， wèi yē hé huá — nǐ de shén zuò wáng ； yīn wèi nǐ de shén ài yǐ sè liè rén ， yào yǒng yuǎn jiān lì tā men ， suǒ yǐ lì nǐ zuò tā men de wáng ， shǐ nǐ bǐng gōng xíng yì 。」

Blessed be the LORD your God, who delighted in you and set you on his throne to be king for the LORD your God, because your God loved Israel, to establish them forever. Therefore he made you king over them, to do justice and righteousness.”

于是示巴女王将一百二十他连得金子和宝石，与极多的香料送给所罗门王；她送给王的香料，以后再没有这样的。

yú shì shì bā nǚ wáng jiāng yì bǎi èr shí tā lián dé jīn zǐ hé bǎo shí ， yǔ jí duō de xiāng liào sòng gěi suǒ luó mén wáng ； tā sòng gěi wáng de xiāng liào ， yǐ hòu zài méi yǒu zhè yàng de 。

She gave the king one hundred and twenty talents of gold, spices in great abundance, and precious stones. There was never before such spice as the queen of Sheba gave to King Solomon.

希兰的仆人和所罗门的仆人从俄斐运了金子来，也运了檀香木 和宝石来。

xī lán de pú rén hé suǒ luó mén de pú rén cóng é fěi yùn le jīn zǐ lái ， yě yùn le tán xiāng mù hé bǎo shí lái 。

The servants of Huram and the servants of Solomon, who brought gold from Ophir, also brought algum trees and precious stones.

王用檀香木为耶和华殿和王宫做台，又为歌唱的人做琴瑟；犹大地从来没有见过这样的。

wáng yòng tán xiāng mù wèi yē hé huá diàn hé wáng gōng zuò tái ， yòu wèi gē chàng de rén zuò qín sè ； yóu dà dì cóng lái méi yǒu jiàn guò zhè yàng de 。

The king used algum tree wood to make terraces for the LORD’s house and for the king’s house, and harps and stringed instruments for the singers. There were none like these seen before in the land of Judah.

所罗门王按示巴女王所带来的，还她礼物，另外照她一切所要所求的，都送给她。于是女王和她臣仆转回本国去了。

suǒ luó mén wáng àn shì bā nǚ wáng suǒ dài lái de ， hái tā lǐ wù ， lìng wài zhào tā yí qiè suǒ yào suǒ qiú de ， dōu sòng gěi tā 。 yú shì nǚ wáng hé tā chén pú zhuǎn huí běn guó qù le 。

King Solomon gave to the queen of Sheba all her desire, whatever she asked, more than that which she had brought to the king. So she turned and went to her own land, she and her servants.

所罗门每年所得的金子共有六百六十六他连得，

suǒ luó mén měi nián suǒ dé de jīn zǐ gòng yǒu liù bǎi liù shí liù tā lián dé ，

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

另外还有商人所进的金子，并且阿拉伯诸王与属国的省长都带金银给所罗门。

lìng wài hái yǒu shāng rén suǒ jìn de jīn zǐ ， bìng qiě ā lā bó zhū wáng yǔ shǔ guó de shěng zhǎng dōu dài jīn yín gěi suǒ luó mén 。

in addition to that which the traders and merchants brought. All the kings of Arabia and the governors of the country brought gold and silver to Solomon.

所罗门王用锤出来的金子打成挡牌二百面，每面用金子六百舍客勒；

suǒ luó mén wáng yòng chuí chū lái de jīn zǐ dǎ chéng dǎng pái èr bǎi miàn ， měi miàn yòng jīn zǐ liù bǎi shè kè lè ；

King Solomon made two hundred large shields of beaten gold. Six hundred shekels of beaten gold went to one large shield.

又用锤出来的金子打成盾牌三百面，每面用金子三百舍客勒，都放在黎巴嫩林宫里。

yòu yòng chuí chū lái de jīn zǐ dǎ chéng dùn pái sān bǎi miàn ， měi miàn yòng jīn zǐ sān bǎi shè kè lè ， dōu fàng zài lí bā nèn lín gōng lǐ 。

He made three hundred shields of beaten gold. Three hundred shekels of gold went to one shield. The king put them in the House of the Forest of Lebanon.

王用象牙制造一个大宝座，用精金包裹。

wáng yòng xiàng yá zhì zào yí gè dà bǎo zuò ， yòng jīng jīn bāo guǒ 。

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

宝座有六层台阶，又有金脚凳，与宝座相连。宝座两旁有扶手，靠近扶手有两个狮子站立。

bǎo zuò yǒu liù céng tái jiē ， yòu yǒu jīn jiǎo dèng ， yǔ bǎo zuò xiāng lián 。 bǎo zuò liǎng páng yǒu fú shǒu ， kào jìn fú shǒu yǒu liǎng gè shī zi zhàn lì 。

There were six steps to the throne, with a footstool of gold, which were fastened to the throne, and armrests on either side by the place of the seat, and two lions standing beside the armrests.

六层台阶上有十二个狮子站立，每层有两个：左边一个，右边一个；在列国中没有这样做的。

liù céng tái jiē shàng yǒu shí èr gè shī zi zhàn lì ， měi céng yǒu liǎng gè ： zuǒ biān yí gè ， yòu biān yí gè ； zài liè guó zhōng méi yǒu zhè yàng zuò de 。

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

所罗门王一切的饮器都是金的，黎巴嫩林宫里的一切器皿都是精金的。所罗门年间，银子算不了什么。

suǒ luó mén wáng yí qiè de yǐn qì dōu shì jīn de ， lí bā nèn lín gōng lǐ de yí qiè qì mǐn dōu shì jīng jīn de 。 suǒ luó mén nián jiān ， yín zi suàn bù liǎo shén me 。

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. Silver was not considered valuable in the days of Solomon.

因为王的船只与希兰的仆人一同往他施去；他施船只三年一次装载金、银、象牙、猿猴、孔雀回来。

yīn wèi wáng de chuán zhī yǔ xī lán de pú rén yì tóng wǎng tā shī qù ； tā shī chuán zhī sān nián yí cì zhuāng zài jīn 、 yín 、 xiàng yá 、 yuán hóu 、 kǒng què huí lái 。

For the king had ships that went to Tarshish with Huram’s servants. Once every three years, the ships of Tarshish came bringing gold, silver, ivory, apes, and peacocks.

所罗门王的财宝与智慧胜过天下的列王。

suǒ luó mén wáng de cái bǎo yǔ zhì huì shèng guò tiān xià de liè wáng 。

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

普天下的王都求见所罗门，要听 神赐给他智慧的话。

pǔ tiān xià de wáng dū qiú jiàn suǒ luó mén ， yào tīng shén cì gěi tā zhì huì de huà 。

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

他们各带贡物，就是金器、银器、衣服、军械、香料、骡马，每年有一定之例。

tā men gè dài gòng wù ， jiù shì jīn qì 、 yín qì 、 yī fu 、 jūn xiè 、 xiāng liào 、 luó mǎ ， měi nián yǒu yí dìng zhī lì 。

They each brought tribute: vessels of silver, vessels of gold, clothing, armor, spices, horses, and mules every year.

所罗门有套车的马四千棚，有马兵一万二千，安置在屯车的城邑和耶路撒冷，就是王那里。

suǒ luó mén yǒu tào chē de mǎ sì qiān péng ， yǒu mǎ bīng yí wàn èr qiān ， ān zhì zài tún chē de chéng yì hé yē lù sā lěng ， jiù shì wáng nà lǐ 。

Solomon 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.

所罗门统管诸王，从大河到非利士地，直到埃及的边界。

suǒ luó mén tǒng guǎn zhū wáng ， cóng dà hé dào fēi lì shì dì ， zhí dào āi jí de biān jiè 。

He ruled over all the kings from the River even to the land of the Philistines, and to the border of Egypt.

王在耶路撒冷使银子多如石头，香柏木多如高原的桑树。

wáng zài yē lù sā lěng shǐ yín zi duō rú shí tou ， xiāng bǎi mù duō rú gāo yuán de sāng shù 。

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

有人从埃及和各国为所罗门赶马群来。

yǒu rén cóng āi jí hé gè guó wèi suǒ luó mén gǎn mǎ qún lái 。

They brought horses for Solomon out of Egypt and out of all lands.

所罗门其余的事，自始至终，不都写在先知拿单的书上和示罗人亚希雅的预言书上，并先见易多论尼八儿子耶罗波安的默示书上吗？

suǒ luó mén qí yú de shì ， zì shǐ zhì zhōng ， bù dōu xiě zài xiān zhī ná dān de shū shàng hé shì luó rén yà xī yǎ de yù yán shū shàng ， bìng xiān jiàn yì duō lùn ní bā ér zi yē luó bō ān de mò shì shū shàng ma ？

Now 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?

所罗门在耶路撒冷作以色列众人的王共四十年。

suǒ luó mén zài yē lù sā lěng zuò yǐ sè liè zhòng rén de wáng gòng sì shí nián 。

Solomon reigned in Jerusalem over all Israel forty years.

所罗门与他列祖同睡，葬在他父大卫城里。他儿子罗波安接续他作王。

suǒ luó mén yǔ tā liè zǔ tóng shuì ， zàng zài tā fù dà wèi chéng lǐ 。 tā ér zi luó bō ān jiē xù tā zuò wáng 。

Solomon slept with his fathers, and he was buried in his father David’s city; and Rehoboam his son reigned in his place.
