1 இராஜாக்கள் 10:1-28

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

2 And 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.

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

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

5 And the meat 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 the Lord; there was no more spirit in her.

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

7 Howbeit 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 exceedeth the fame which I heard.

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

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

10 And she gave the king an 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.

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

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

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

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

15 Beside that he had of the merchantmen, and of the traffick of the spice merchants, and of all the kings of Arabia, and of the governors of the country.

16 And king Solomon made two hundred targets of beaten gold: six hundred shekels of gold went to one target.

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

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

19 The throne had six steps, and the top of the throne was round behind: and there were stays on either side on the place of the seat, and two lions stood beside the stays.

20 And 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.

21 And 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.

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

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

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

25 And they brought every man his present, vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and garments, and armour, and spices, horses, and mules, a rate year by year.

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

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

28 And Solomon had horses brought out of Egypt, and linen yarn: the king’s merchants received the linen yarn at a price.

29 மக்கƠΤாவிலοருந்Τு யோசுεா இஸ͠ΰவேலர் அனைவரோடுங்கூட லிப்னாவுக்குப் புறப்பட்டு, லிப்னாவின்மேல் யுத்தம்பண்ணினான்.
Then Joshua passed from Makkedah, and all Israel with him, unto Libnah, and fought against Libnah:

30 கர்த்தர் அதையும் அதின் ராஜாவையும் இஸ்ரவேலின் கையில் ஒப்புக்கொடுத்தார்; அதையும் அதிலுள்ள சகல நரஜீவன்களையும், ஒருவரையும் அதிலே மீதியாக வைக்காமல், பட்டயக்கருக்கினால் அழித்து, எரிகோவின் ராஜாவுக்குச் செய்ததுபோல, அதின் ராஜாவுக்கும் செய்தான்.
And the Lord delivered it also, and the king thereof, into the hand of Israel; and he smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls that were therein; he let none remain in it; but did unto the king thereof as he did unto the king of Jericho.

31 லிப்னாவிலிருந்து யோசுவா இஸ்ரவேல் அனைத்தோடுங்கூட லாகீசுக்குப் புறப்பட்டு, அதற்கு எதிரே பாளயம் இறங்கி, அதின்மேல் யுத்தம்பண்ணினான்.
And Joshua passed from Libnah, and all Israel with him, unto Lachish, and encamped against it, and fought against it:

32 கர்த்தர் லாகீசை இஸ்ரவேலின் கையில் ஒப்புக்கொடுத்தார்; அதை இரண்டாம் நாளிலே பிடித்து, லிப்னாவுக்குச் செய்ததுபோல, அதையும் அதிலுள்ள எல்லா நரஜீவன்களையும் பட்டயக்கருக்கினால் அழித்தான்.
And the Lord delivered Lachish into the hand of Israel, which took it on the second day, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls that were therein, according to all that he had done to Libnah.

33 அப்பொழுது கேசேரின் ராஜாவாகிய ஓராம் லாகீசுக்குத் துணைசெய்யும்படி வந்தான்; யோசுவா அவனையும் அவன் ஜனத்தையும் ஒருவனும் மீதியாயிராதபடி, வெட்டிப்போட்டான்.
Then Horam king of Gezer came up to help Lachish; and Joshua smote him and his people, until he had left him none remaining.

34 லாகீசிலிருந்து யோசுவாவும் இஸ்ரவேலர் அனைவரும் எக்லோனுக்குப் புறப்பட்டு, அதற்கு எதிரே பாளயமிறங்கி, அதின்மேல் யுத்தம்பண்ணி,
And from Lachish Joshua passed unto Eglon, and all Israel with him; and they encamped against it, and fought against it:

35 அதை அந்நாளிலே பிடித்து, அதைப் பட்டயக்கருக்கினால் அழித்தார்கள். லாகீசுக்குச் செய்ததுபோல, அதிலுள்ள சகல நரஜீவன்களையும் அந்நாளிலேதானே சங்காரம்பண்ணினான்.
And they took it on that day, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and all the souls that were therein he utterly destroyed that day, according to all that he had done to Lachish.

36 பின்பு எக்லோனிலிருந்து யோசுவாவும் இஸ்ரவேலர் அனைவருமாய் எபிரோனுக்குப் புறப்பட்டு, அதின்மேல் யுத்தம்பண்ணி,
And Joshua went up from Eglon, and all Israel with him, unto Hebron; and they fought against it:

37 அதைப் பிடித்து, எக்லோனுக்குச் செய்ததுபோல, அதையும் அதின் ராஜாவையும் அதற்கு அடுத்த எல்லாப்பட்டணங்களையும் அதிலுள்ள சகல நரஜீவன்களையும், ஒருவரையும் மீதியாக வைக்காமல் பட்டயக்கருக்கினால் அழித்தார்கள்; அதையும் அதிலுள்ள சகல நரஜீவன்களையும் சங்காரம்பண்ணினான்.
And they took it, and smote it with the edge of the sword, and the king thereof, and all the cities thereof, and all the souls that were therein; he left none remaining, according to all that he had done to Eglon; but destroyed it utterly, and all the souls that were therein.

38 பின்பு யோசுவா இஸ்ரவேலர் அனைவரோடுங்கூடத் தெபீருக்குத் திரும்பிப்போய், அதின்மேல் யுத்தம்பண்ணி,
And Joshua returned, and all Israel with him, to Debir; and fought against it:

39 அதையும் அதின் ராஜாவையும் அதைச் சேர்ந்த எல்லாப் பட்டணங்களையும் பிடித்தான்; அவைகளைப் பட்டயக்கருக்கினால் அழித்து, அதிலுள்ள நரஜீவன்களையெல்லாம், ஒருவரையும் மீதியாக வைக்காமல், சங்காரம்பண்ணினார்கள்; எபிரோனுக்கும் லிப்னாவுக்கும் அவைகளின் ராஜாவுக்கும் செய்ததுபோலத் தெபீருக்கும் அதின் ராஜாவுக்கும் செய்தான்.
And he took it, and the king thereof, and all the cities thereof; and they smote them with the edge of the sword, and utterly destroyed all the souls that were therein; he left none remaining: as he had done to Hebron, so he did to Debir, and to the king thereof; as he had done also to Libnah, and to her king.

40 இப்படியே யோசுவா மலைத்தேசம் அனைத்தையும் தென்தேசத்தையும் சமபூமியையும் நீர்ப்பாய்ச்சலான இடங்களையும் அவைகளின் எல்லா ராஜாக்களையும், ஒருவரையும் மீதியாக வைக்காமல் அழித்து, இஸ்ரவேலின் தேவனாகிய கர்த்தர் கட்டளையிட்டபடியே, சுவாசமுள்ள எல்லாவற்றையும் சங்காரம்பண்ணி,
So Joshua smote all the country of the hills, and of the south, and of the vale, and of the springs, and all their kings: he left none remaining, but utterly destroyed all that breathed, as the Lord God of Israel commanded.

41 காதேஸ்பர்னேயாதுவக்கிக் காத்சாமட்டும் இருக்கிறதையும் கிபியோன்மட்டும் இருக்கிற கோசேன் தேசம் அனைத்தையும் அழித்தான்.
And Joshua smote them from Kadesh-barnea even unto Gaza, and all the country of Goshen, even unto Gibeon.

42 அந்த ராஜாக்கள் எல்லாரையும் அவர்கள் தேசத்தையும் யோசுவா ஒருமிக்கப் பிடித்தான்; இஸ்ரவேலின் தேவனாகிய கர்த்தர் இஸ்ரவேலுக்காக யுத்தம்பண்ணினார்.
And all these kings and their land did Joshua take at one time, because the Lord God of Israel fought for Israel.
