10 Bo nkietu waba yadilanga ku Saba kayuwa phila Salomo kayiza bela wuzabakana, mu kibila ki nduenga Yave kamvana, nandi wuyenda kuidi Salomo muingi kumvana biuvu bi phasi. 2 Nkietu waba yadilanga ku Saba wuvitila ku Yelusalemi na nkangu wunneni wu bisadi biandi, zikamela baba nata mafuta ma balsamu, mamanya mawombo mathalu, kubunda mvandi wola. Nandi wuyenda kuidi Salomo ayi wumvana biuvu bioso biba yandi. 3 Salomo wuvana mimvutu mi biuvu bioso nkietu beni kamvana ayi vasa ba ko diambu Salomo kakhambu kunsudikisa.

4 Bo nkietu waba yadilanga ku Saba kamona nduenga yoso Salomo kaba, phila nzo katungisa, 5 bidia baba tulanga va meza, phila zimfumu ziandi zi masodi baba kadilanga, kisalu batu baba kabulanga bidia va meza baba vanganga, bikhutu baba vuatanga, phila bisadi baba kabudilanga vinyu ayi minkhailu miviku Salomo kaba vananga ku tempelu yi Yave, nandi wuyituka beni. 6 Nkietu beni wutuba: “Mamoso yiyuwizi matedi mambu widi mu kuvanga ayi matedi nduengꞌaku madi makiedika. 7 Vayi yibe kikinina to mu mambu yiyuwa bo minu veka yibe mona mawu mu mesu mami. Bukiedika a mfumu, basa khamba ko mamoso matedi nduengꞌaku ayi biuma bioso widi. 8 Mayangi kuidi batu bo ngie wunyadila ayi kuidi bisadi biaku, kibila bawu badi luaku lu kukuwanga nduengꞌaku. 9 Bika Yave Nzambiꞌaku no wu kubieka ntinu wu Isaeli kazitusu. Mu kibila ki luzolo lukuikama Yave kadi mu dikabu di Isaeli, nandi wu kubieka ngiewu mfumu, ntinu muingi wuyadila mu busonga ayi mu lukuikumunu.”

10 Bosi nkietu waba yadilanga ku Saba wuvana kuidi Salomo 120 di zitalentu* ziwola, mafuta mawombo ma balsamu ayi mamanya mathalu. Vasa bue ba ko mutu wunkaka wuluta nata mafuta ma balsamu kena mo nkietu waba yadilanga ku Saba kavana kuidi Salomo.

11 Makumbi ma Hirão maba vekisanga wola yaba fuminanga ku Ofir, mvandi matuala mabaya mawombo ma sândalo ayi mamanya mathalu. 12 Mu mabaya ma sândalo ntinu Salomo wuvanga makunzi batula ku tempelu yi Yave ayi ku nzo yi ntinu, mvandi wuvanga zi harpa ayi bisiku binkaka mi minkunga. Tona mu thangu ayoyo nate bubu, ntindu mabaya amomo, basiala bue matuala ko ayi masiala bue monika ko.

13 Ntinu Salomo wukabila nkietu waba yadilanga ku Saba biuma kazola ayi kadinda ayi bio kakhambu kundinda. Bosi nkietu beni, wuvutuka kutsiꞌandi na bisadi biandi.

14 Wola ntinu Salomo kaba tambulanga mu mvu yiba 666 di zitalentu. 15 Mvandi ntinu wabe tambulanga biuma biaba fuminanga kuidi bisadi biandi, basi lungosu, mintinu mioso mi Arabia ayi minyadi mi zitsi zinkaka.

16 Ntinu Salomo wuvanga 200 di minkaku minneni babundikisa kisengu na wola (basadila 600 di zisikulu* muingi kuvanga kadika nkaku). 17 Mvandi wuvanga 300 di minkaku miluelu mu kusadila wola basobikisa na bisengu (basadila zimina* zitatu muingi kuvanga kadika nkaku wuluelu). Bosi ntinu Salomo wutula minkaku beni ku Nzo yi Nsitu yi Líbano.

18 Ntinu Salomo mvandi wuvanga kikundu kinneni ki kimfumu mu kusadila phunzi yi nzau ayi wuvinda kiawu wola. 19 Muingi kuvitila va kikundu beni, vaba bikada bi sambanu ayi kuyilu kikundu vaba mua muanzu wuvindubuka. Kikundu beni kiba biuma biodi bi kutetika mioko, ayi kadika khonzo yi koko kuba kitumba ki khosi. 20 Ayi mu sambanu di bikada batula 12 di bitumba bi zikhosi. Kadika khonzo yi kikada, batula kitumba kimueka ki khosi. Vasa ba ko luyalu lunkaka luba ntindu kikundu ki kimfumu akiokio.

21 Zimbungu zioso zi ntinu Salomo ziba ziwola. Mvandi biuma bioso biba ku nzo yi nsitu Líbano biba biwola. Kusa ba ko ne kiuma bavangila mu palata, kibila mu bilumbu bi Salomo, babasa vuanga ko nkinza palata. 22 Mu thangu beni khumbu yimueka mu kadika mimvu mitatu, makumbi ma Salomo maba kuendanga va kimueka na makumbi ma ntinu Hirão ku Tarsi ayi mabe vutukanga na palata, wola, ziphunzi zi nzau, zitsima ayi zinuni.*

23 Mu phila ayoyo, ntinu Salomo wuluta ba busina ayi nduenga kena mintinu mioso. 24 Ayi batu boso baba tomba kukuenda kuidi ntinu Salomo muingi kukuwa nduenga Nzambi kamvana. 25 Batu baba tualanga minkhailu amimi kuidi ntinu Salomo: biuma bi palata, bi wola, bikhutu, zimbedi, biuma bi kunuanina mvita, mafuta ma balsamu, mimvalu, ayi ziphunda. Bawu baba vangilanga mawu kadika mvu.

26 Buviokila thangu, Salomo wuyiza ba makalu mawombo ma mimvita, mimvalu ayi wuba 1.400 di makalu ma mimvita ayi 12.000 di mimvalu. Waba lundilanga biawu mu mavula baba lundilanga makalu ma mimvita ayi ku Yelusalemi ku divula dio nandi kaba kalanga.

27 Ntinu Salomo wuyiza vanga muingi palata yiyilama ku Yelusalemi buka mamanya. Mvandi wuyiza vanga muingi mabaya ma cedro mayilama buka minti mi Sefelá.

28 Mimvalu mi Salomo miaba fuminanga ku Ngipiti. Bisadi biandi baba sumbanga mimvulu* miwombo mu thalu basikika. 29 Baba sumbilanga kadika dikalu ku Ngipiti mu 600 di zimbongo zi palata, ayi mvalu wumueka wuba 150 di zimbongo zi palata. Bosi baba sumbisanga biawu kuidi mintinu mioso mi basi hitita ayi kuidi mintinu mi basi Silia.
