2 Hun kom til Jerusalem med et såre stort Følge og med Kameler, der bar Røgelse, Guld i store Mængder og Ædelsten. Og da hun var kommet til Salomo, talte hun til ham om alt, hvad der lå hende på Hjerte.
2 So she came to Jerusalem with a very large retinue, with camels carrying spices and very much gold and precious stones. When she came to Solomon, she spoke with him about all that was in her heart.
5 Maden på hans Bord, hans Folks Boliger, han træden og deres Klæder, hans Mundskænke og Brændofrene, han ofrede i HERRENs Hus, var hun ude af sig selv;
5 the food of his table, the seating of his servants, the attendance of his waiters and their attire, his cupbearers, and his stairway by which he went up to the house of the Lord, there was no more spirit in her.
7 Jeg troede ikke, hvad der sagdes, før jeg kom og så det med egne Øjne; og se, ikke engang det halve er mig fortalt, thi din Visdom og Herlighed overgår, hvad rygte sagde.
7 Nevertheless I did not believe the reports, until I came and my eyes had seen it. And behold, the half was not told me. You exceed in wisdom and prosperity the report which I heard.
9 Lovet være HERREN din Gud, som fandt behag i dig og satte dig på Israels Trone! Fordi HERREN elsker Israel evindelig, satte han dig til Konge, til at øve ret og Retfærdighed."
9 Blessed be the Lord your God who delighted in you to set you on the throne of Israel; because the Lord loved Israel forever, therefore He made you king, to do justice and righteousness.”
10 Derpå gav hun Kongen 120 Guldtalenter, Røgelse i store Mængder og Ædelsten; og aldrig er der siden kommet så megen Røgelse til Landet som den, Dronningen af Saba gav Kong Salomo.
10 She gave the king a hundred and twenty talents of gold, and a very great amount of spices and precious stones. Never again did such abundance of spices come in as that which the queen of Sheba gave King Solomon.
12 og af Almuggimtræet lod Kongen lave Rækværk til HERRENs Hus og Kongens Palads, desuden Citre og Harper til Sangerne. Så meget Almuggimtræ er hidtil ikke set eller kommet til Landet.
12 The king made of the almug trees supports for the house of the Lord and for the king’s house, also lyres and harps for the singers; such almug trees have not come in again nor have they been seen to this day.
13 Og Kong Salomo gav Dronningen af Saba alt, hvad hun ønskede og bad om, foruden hvad han af sig selv kongeligen skænkede hende. Derpå begav hun sig med sit Følge hjem til sit Land.
13 King Solomon gave to the queen of Sheba all her desire which she requested, besides what he gave her according to his royal bounty. Then she turned and went to her own land together with her servants.
21 Alle Kong Salomos Drikkekar var af Guld og alle Redskaber i Libanonskovhuset af fint Guld; Sølv regnedes ikke for noget i Kong Salomos Dage.
21 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 was of silver; it was not considered valuable in the days of Solomon.
22 Kongen havde nemlig Tarsisskibe i Søen sammen med Hirams Skibe; og en Gang hvert tredje År kom Tarsisskibene, ladet med Guld, Sølv, Elfenben, Aber og Påfugle.
22 For the king had at sea the ships of Tarshish with the ships of Hiram; once every three years the ships of Tarshish came bringing gold and silver, ivory and apes and peacocks.
26 Salomo anskaffede sig Stridsvogne og Ryttere, og han havde 1.400 Vogne og l2.000 Ryttere; dem lagde han dels i Vognbyerne, dels hos sig i Jerusalem.
26 Now Solomon gathered chariots and horsemen; and he had 1,400 chariots and 12,000 horsemen, and he stationed them in the chariot cities and with the king in Jerusalem.
